Hi Ray!

Sure! Those titles would also be suitable.  What I'm saying is, after
watching the video history of his accomplishments in the real world of
high-tech submarine  R&D, I'm convinced that if anybody living on the planet
today deserves to be called the REAL Captain Nemo, it's  Phil Nuytten.

I just sent him an E with a thought I'd like to share with you all:

After seeing Phil's shop in operation during the construction of DEEP
WORKER, I feel like I'm working in a cave, building submarines by pounding
tree bark with a rock hammer, and welding it together with a torch fueled
with mastodon fat!    ;-)

VBR,

Pat
