At random: In World War II the Germans lost 782 submarines, the Japanese lost 130, Great Britan and Commonwealth countries lost 88 subs, Russia lost 110 submarines and the United States lost only 52 submarines. Twenty-three of the Japanese subs lost were victims of the American Submarine Service.

Subject: Where's the beef, Chief?

I see the actual pic in my post, Chief, running Firefox browser on an XP SP2 machine. Maybe you're running an off-brand UNIX/Mac hybrid?

All kidding aside, I've found that I need to disable my ZoneAlarm firewall (and turn on the Windows version) in order to see a lot of content on the net - for instance www.navsource.org/, where I got the Growler Regulus shot. If Zone Alarm is active on my machine, all of their content is little red 'x's.

Just another of life's little mysteries encountered surfing the information highway.
