Very well done Wayne!  For what it's worth, when someone asks me why ham radio 
and CW in the era of cell phones and internet, I usually ask them the question 
"Why do people buy sailboats?".  It's a great way to start the conversation, 
and I usually see lights go on.  As you eloquently illustrated, there's a lot 
of charm and fun to be had by taking the old traditional paths rather than the 
freeway.  It requires a lot of knowledge and skill to be a good CW operator or 
a sailor in a wind powered vessel.  

Cheers and 73,
