I wrote late last night:

>>That's right, there will be this giant thing called the "cruel" ocean,
there will be this little cockle-shell of a kayak bobbing about with you
either in it or out of it, and you will feel at times that you are floating
above it all, not really there. It will never seem real enough or cold
enough.>>

I know this sounds a bit weird, but its not "off the wall". It really does
tend to go down like this. Hours can pass by, huge unaccounted blocks of
time, and you hardly know it. I've been in enough situations and
interviewed enough people over the years to know what I wrote is true. I'll
pass on some of my own accounts as time goes on, and I also have some
incident reports from the 80's I can drag out if you want.
