I have been noticing strong similarities with another stupidly misguided project. The details are different, but I can't help feeling the principles are essentially the same... https://biplane.com.au/blog/?p=524 > some highly experienced people [..] all trying to solve > the problem The problem with this submarine debacle, if I may make so bold, is that there is no problem. What feels like "a problem" is an ongoing, flexing, mutating, shifting pattern of capabilities, desires and circumstances. You can't solve it any way except the way a surfer "solves" a wave. Successfully surfing one wave makes you more likely to surf the next one well - yet at the same time the specifics of any one ride will literally never be repeated. Sure a board is necessary - but it's almost incidental to balance, skill, imagination, courage, decisiveness... and choice of wave.
