[Rhodes22-list] A Rhodes in the Med wk 3

[Chris Geankoplis]

Hi Lee,
        I taught physical science in middle school.  My syllabus was "A 3
part method of experimentation: Set it on fire, Throw it off the roof, blow
it up".  I've been keeping sailing journals for a lot of years, I think my
first was 50 years ago.  I guess the Kojack teaser is a contemporary of
"Who shot JR", grin.   You will have to wait for this exciting
 anticlimactic "little known fact".  I might put something forward in a
publication,  Gotta think about it.  Parts of my first journal did get
published in a recent book by Rod Heikel "a Gift of the Sea".  An
interesting history of yachting in the Med from Cleopatra's time to modern
times.  I'm positioned closer to Cleo.
