It puzzles me that the author seems worried about the number of migrants that die each year striking lighthouses, yet he seems a bit thrilled having shot birds for specimens.  I know, shooting was fairly common pre 1900's.

That all happened almost 20 years ago and today's engines are tighter so that the problem wouldn't be as pronounced any more. In fact there is now one grade of Mobil 1 that is classed as a 0w30 which is actually thinner than the original. BTW: Mobil 1 is not recommended for heavy duty diesel service. Speaking of recommendations.

All together, a very slick installation, and well done (by the folks at Middleton Marine at Dog River Marina in Mobile, AL. The only problem was it cost too much and took too long... Imagine that ;-).

After building apps like this on mobile > devices for the last 7 years, I think there's more needed than that.

awards event and to Deborah for her tireless work to make all of the above happen!
