I saw a Nat. Geo. special about the ship breakers in India; so that's where it is. Pretty impressive sight. I wonder what was going through the minds of the ships' crews as they drove them at full speed onto that beach. It goes against every instinct, of course. And I expect that the shoreline around northern Russia is pretty familiar ground to some analysts around the world (but most especially near Washington D.C.). All of this is great fodder for a fall day.
