Hey, glad you all worked that out. I also was puzzled re stuart’s obsession with cost, and ... wardaddy ... your point about class envy is noted and well taken. I have seen this also, it’s so .... leftist. I wanted to put up the picture of the guy going “Geez, not this (headache) again.”
There is plenty of information on Zac’s website re the sponsors who have been helping out financially.
Anyway, the Sunderlands are Christian and put that out front in an admirable way. It’s not my business to know what the father’s profession is. Living in Thousand Oaks, although it is a nice suburb, is not proof of wealth by any means. And the family is now admittedly in debt.
So, can we get back on topic? LOL. Zac’s most recent leg of the journey, which he blogged last night, is a real hair-raiser: http://www.zacsunderland.com/blog/2009/07/ship-in-night.html
He came within 1/4 mile of being totalled by a Danish freighter and USCG, out of San Diego, intervened in his behalf (while still in Mexican waters).
Kudos on the burn.
