At random: The USS SKIPJACK was the first submarine designed from the keel up for top underwater performance using nuclear power. An earlier SKIPJACK was the first U.S. submarine to cross the Atlantic ocean under her own power (Newport, Rhode Island to Ponta Delgada, Azores, in 1917).

Canadian folk-singer Stan Rogers had a great voice and a good group. He sang and wrote good songs.

He died when a Air Canada jet running from New Orleans (after a gig) to Toronto caught fire in-air. They got the plane on the ground in Cincinnati but something like 20 people died of smoke & lack of oxygen, one of them being Stan Rogers.

If you can find "Barrett's Privateers" give it a listen.

Ahhhh... Glad to see others appreciate Stan Rogers. I have long been a huge fan of his . He died way too young. I think his greatest work was "Northwest Passage". Nat Geo did a documentary of the Franklin expedition years ago which featured his song.
