[status] What an Idiot! 20 27 S - 175 39 W. That's not Tonga! The more I looked and thought about it, the more I realized, you can't see Tonga from 30 miles away can you? The highest point of land is about 100 feet to the top of a palm. 100 feet over 30 miles, probably not. Calm Down Russ, it will be visible shortly. Wind now East 15-20.

The pessimist complains about the wind; the optimist expects it to change; the realist adjusts the sails.
