E, I know what submarine races were/are because in the show Happy Days that is where Rich and his pals always took their dates to make out with. Its always some place high up where you can park your car and view the lights or a lake or something. When I went to school I never heard that term used. Usually guys would just want to know if you wanted to go someplace to park or go someplace to neck. Snipe hunt? Never. Sounds gross. I've never been hunting...except to check out people at the beach!! But I wouldnt call them snipes. Is that some sort of mushroom? Have a great day and good luck with the SEC title game this week againest Mississippi St! Hear the bulldogs are pretty tough! Mrs. Cleaver

Good Afternoon E! Well, I don't know about Dedrick, but my favorite part of the submarine races was that "low pressure blow on all main ballast tanks." "Snorkeling" was always a pretty close second though. As a matter of fact, come to think of it, low pressure blows may not have been around when dch was a squid... he may have only known about the "high pressure blow on all main ballast tanks." As a general rule, the low pressure blow is a much more controlled kind of event, taking longer with a gentler ride. The high pressure blow is much more frantic... it usually causes a "shift of attitude" which, at the culmination of the event, could cause air to unintentionally "spill." If that happens, one could find themselves in trouble in a hurry... The problem is that it takes a while to recharge the banks, so inadvertent spillage is a condition to be avoided. Maybe dch would like to clue everyone in about snorkeling. I'll give you a hint though... the first step is to get the mast to stick up. Lazarus, just remembering the good 'ol days...
