Asterisks off the coast of California on sectionals

Hey, do you ever use the online SIM ATC?

I'm not sure what you mean by that. I started using the built-in AI ATC in
MSFS when it first became available. But then I discovered VATSIM, and so now
I fly online with real people providing ATC (and flying in the same virtual
universe), which is dramatically superior to the built-in ATC, although it
requires real-world charts and databases and so on.

They're not providing ATC and you aren';t flying..

And because of the bull**** that comes out of your mouth here,
you'vegiven VATSIM a bad rep to these people here, in which some of the
people at VATSIM are controllers (I happen to know a number of them at
C90, L30, P50, ZLA, ZAB, R90, and others).

The best thing you can do about VATSIM, Anthony, let alone
anything here, is to shut up.

But I digress. The only time that would ever happen is if David
Duke and Pat Robertson made it to the White House.

Don;'t say stuff like that!

I know someone who's wife was pestering him to take up ballroom dancing
in the 70's.
He sadi "I'll do that the day they elect a non-italian Pope"

He's not bad at the dancing, actually.

On the San Francisco TAC, I see lots of black asterisks just off the coast. I
can't find them in the chart guide or in the map legend. What do they
represent?

Sim pilot ditchings.
