Another example of the falacy of too few alternatives - the resulting opinion is a logical short circuit.
She had to want to do it herself for more reasons than mere sibling rivalry or bragging rights. Come on, this was a trip around the world, alone, in a sailboat. If it weren't for fate she'd have made it too. In the light of that reality you and I butt sitting like a couple girly men at our computer screens arguing about a 16 yr old girl who has so much more ambition than we do it flat out PWN3D us is really, really pathetic. I'm so ashamed I'm going to log off and go DO something. Gotta fix the head gasket on the air compressor so it's ready for painting the magnesium Corvette wheels for our LT1/six speed WS6 Firebird. Not a trip around the world I know but.... nice talking! Now smile!
Then what did she accomplish? What did the Australian 16 yr old accomplish other than a way to make money and a vehicle with which to brag? WHAT did they accomplish? HOW have they benefited mankind? And what's next? A 15 year old? A 14? Where will you draw the line? A 10 year old?
If it weren't for fate she'd have made it too.
If it weren't for fate poor planning she'd have made it too.

LOL! I'm a 60 year old grandmother with herniated discs that's yapping while I rest my back from gardening. It HURTS to bend over and weed. It HURTS to dig a hole in rock strewn clay and plant a rose. But I do it. Slowly. But I do it.

Ah...a Firebird. We used to have a 64 GTO convertible. I loved that car!
