...After a long haul I've finally gotten a major rework of the Looking Glass Page completed and I THINK I have fixed all the glitches and improved the experience, (?)

http://pigboats.com/subs/legends.html

I don't have the RSS page uploaded yet but that will happen later tonight.

================================================

I am also announcing that before Thanksgiving I will be hosting SUBNET on PigBoats.COM. Don Merrigan has turned all the pages and all the data over to me. I will be working with Dave Johnston, a co-founder of PigBoats.COM, on the rework of SUBNET and hopefully we will maintain the spirit of the original but with a more modern feel. For those who do not know. SUBNET predates Ron Martini's page on the web. Don worked closely with Jim Christley in producing it. I am very honored to have been chosen to carry on the work.

Ric, I look forward to seeing what Subnet looks like. Many of the members of Cyberspace Base were around and involved with Don and I hear sea stories about him and others. I am glad you will be keeping that part of our history.

Outstanding Ric for what you are doing.

I always liked the SUBNET layout. Glad to see you are resurrecting it.
At that time It really filled a need in the '90s when boat info was kinda
sparse on the net . I recall Rontini and Merrigan were the main
resources available. God bless 'em both.

I am glad to see so many excellent boat info sources such as
SUBSAILOR and http://www.oneternalpatrol.com/ and many others
too (and of course your PIGBOATS). And not to be overlooked is the
new and improved USSVI site

Additionally I am finding the search-site: INFO.com (the RESEARCH
section especially) to be extremely good. Plug a boat name and hull
number and it pulls up a wealth of info with much good narrative and a
passle of links. Been using that source more and more.

Keep up the good work.

Sid
