I spent years on a boat and never got sick. But now I get vertigo on land that gets just as severe as being seasick. The cause is the same - the inner ear. Now they have exercises you can do to stop the vertigo.

You must be one of the rare people who almost never get sick.

But wishing to die is exactly what I was doing on that fishing trip. It was awful, and I hope never to repeat it.

Thirty foot seas ain't nothing to sneeze at. Sounds almost like the flick, the Perfect Storm, which I enjoyed even though it had George Clooney.
