Well put, Ben! I've often thought one of the fun and stimulating aspects of the list is the fact that not absolutely every thread is boating related. It's kinda like the bar at the yacht club. The common denominator of everyone there is love of boating but the range of lively conversations can

I'm away for a while and look at what I almost missed ! Interesting question about O2 CO2 Norm. I love that type of stuff. Only comments/questions I have are: 1)Steve mentioned Intellectual topics and politics. From what I understand they are mutually exclusive. 2) Philistines on the list…

Funny, but as a side-effect of all this conversation about dying in a sealed environment, I ended up seeing/reading a whole bunch of material on scuba diving and gear. I have this strange feeling that the knowledge I'll put that knowledge to some use before I die. Knowledge is a funny thing to
