My bro-in-law was in the Navy, and I recall him defining "squid" differently. We need Michael Cummings to clarify.

Cobalt Blue,

Btw, what is the atomic number, I forgot, no I went to look it up,
27 right? Pretty mineral, cobaltite, as I remember, from mineralogy.
Associated with nickel.. so much for that..

I was raised quite well, in a very functional family, by mother,
lovely and sweet, my father, very free thinker, and my older brother
and younger sister..

Squid, We like it very much.. Earlier this year we were on the
Sea of Cortez, Loreto, Baja Sur, Mexico... We were on the beach..
All at once, we saw these divers come into the lagoon.. Not the
tourist- type.. Of course, I had to go out.. Nobody else did,
curiosity killed the cougar, no....
They were locals
with black tee shirts on with a big hook one hand.. and a net bag
in the other.. full of Octopi, They were hooking them and selling
them to the restaurants.. We probably ate them that night.. I don't know.. after all those "dirty monkeys", who knows..

I have story about them too, dirty monkeys I mean,, at Loreto, at
another time but at the same place..

Bye..... the Coug
