Comment by Capt Bob Glover III December 8, 2007 @ 11:20 amThis is, how do you say nautically, an awesome sunrise! What a treat to have you both standing watch together and producing a great show of your combined talents, all for the mariner! I just may now go out and buy an ipod so I will not miss one second of your show. Congradulation!
Might adding just a straight mp3 link to the sources for your podcast?

Hey Bob;
Comment by Peter A. Mello December 9, 2007 @ 3:59 pmThanks for listening and for the positive feedback. Maybe we can get you on as a guest someday! Lot’s of things that you’re doing over at the Institute would be interesting to Messing About In Ships listeners.
Happy Holidays and Fair Winds,
Peter
Cool.
I just listened to Episode #1. Interesting to get information from the perspective of folks who a up on today’s technology on ocean traveling vessels. Here, the nearest water is from the Rio Grande (El Paso). During this time of the year you can walk across the Rio Grande at some points, so you do not see ships around here. But, the bridges going over the Rio Grande at our border crossings do meet nautical specifications allowing clearance for a ship’s mast.
Questions, how does bilge (sp?) water have effects on world’s ports, are there rules governing it’s transport? And, are we really over fishing the earth’s oceans?
Respect,
James W. Peterson
