Well, Bob, you worded it like the way you were told. the 1990's 'mission statement'. I am more interested in the mission statement of the 1790's. 'Sealanes' was what is now called 'international waters'? and pirates, like Somolia and bay of Bengal nowdays, was the issue. When debating the second ammendment, if there was no war, there was to be no standing army or navy, unless utilzed, to save citizen's lives and property. They needed duties to justify their funding. Then as now, so these cutbacks are- what the gov't is suppose to do.

'Safe commerce' in US waters was -let's see- Lighthouse service, Lifesaving service, navigation aid service?- they were merged in-1913 and 1939? My father's first ship was a lighthouse tender. 'REVENUE cutter SERVICE'...remind you of something else under dept of treasury??? Like Internal REVENUE SERVICE? Not exactly anti pirate, but anti unarmed tax dodging smugglers?

Next week I will be down by the ocean,I will pull into New London and stop in the academy museum, and ask the historians there if I am off on another planet again.....

No. I am just happy to have their friendship. At least the word "farmer" is in my title. But what is the attraction? How can I explain the sensation and exhilaration I feel when I turn the key and hear the engine come to life (most
