I'm going to be a celebrity!

Mark your calendars boys and girls! November 29, The History Channel, "Deep
Sea Detectives". R.A.P.'s own Roger Long will be seen pontificating
ponderously and speculating on the cause of a ship sinking.

If you would like to put the face together with the rambling posts that
appear in this newsgroup, be sure to tune in. (And not just the face, the
voice, the funny glasses, the lopsided and shifty eyed scowl.)

There's actually an aviation connection as well. The ship in question is the
one used by Admiral Byrd to transport his Ford Trimotor to the Antarctic for
his famous flights. This bit of aviation history can still be seen off of
Mexico Beach, Florida where she sunk under murky circumstance while bound
for Cuba with a load of lumber in the early days of WWII. No one is quite
sure exactly what was going on but her crew seemed to be remarkably well
paid for itinerant lumber transporters.

Good work, Roger! I'll look forward to watching.

Best of all (amazingly!), Dudley isn't castigating you for both (a)
speculating on the causes of an accident, and (b) taking part in the making
of a video that depicts the crashing (sinking?) of a ship.

WTG!!

Along those same lines Oct 17th, 8PM Eastern, a program called NOW "No
Oppurtunity Wasted" will air. In the episode about the former SEALs
being reunited I'll be the guy driving the Cessna they jump out of.

There is nothing - absolutely nothing - half so much worth doing
as simply messing around with airplanes.

Why the hell did they jump out?

Sounds great. Thanks for the heads up, I really enjoy the History Channel
especially the Deep Sea Detectives programs.
