Sea Me Blog

This is a wild experiment, and I don't know whether it will work, but I am at sea on that diving trip and until today I couldn't get this satellite rig to open blogger.com.

Now that I have a moment of opportunity, I am going to attempt a post, for better or worse. No editing allowed, obviously. (The guy who runs this system said to tell you he is sorry!)

Anyone still checking in here, THANK YOU for doing so. I will be back this Sunday July 6. Until then, please go and spend some time at my blogfather's site. He wrote a piece about his dead cat which I had planned to comment upon. Find it and read it, because it is another piece of evidence for phenomena often called "supernatural" but which we simply are unable to measure scientifically. (So far....)

Yesterday I visited the wreck of the famous "Oro Verde" off Grand Cayman Island. Watched a sea turtle battling a pesky angel fish over a coral stalk which the turtle rightfully owned, for he had done all the work in tearing it free. (Amazing how loud were the noises made by the turtle's crunching and scraping beak.)

Then I got bitten from behind on the finger by an angry black fish.

No sign of the lost Altlantis Civilization so far. Wish I could impart a lesson in Classical Values from under the sea, but I'm afraid not. The turtle versus the fish is about as Aesopean as I can get. (Perhaps it is a lesson in Natural Objectivism....)

There! Let's see what happens to this post.....
