Ha! Wise guy.......I dunno what happened. I hit my backspace on my I-pad 3 times and all of a sudden I have 3 posts. What the heck happened?
I like reading about the Tripoli Pirates and the glorious naval battles of the Man-o-war and England and France etc. I was always incredibly impressed with not only the bravery but the seamanship. Being able to navigate via the stars seems like an impossibility to me.
