[PSUBS-MAILIST] Clearances

[Rick Patton via Personal_Submersibles]

What's funny is that the one calling my sub a Bar-B-Q and concerned that I
will kill myself in the sub was a phantom F-4 pilot who used to fly out of
Da Nang where I was, dropping napalm at tree level and had to eject after
being shot once just making the ocean so the NVC couldn't get him before
the Navy could retrieve him! Funny how we perceive danger.
I think I will do what Hank recommended, keeping it cool and taking small
bites out of it.
Sure is nice having a network like this!

Rick
