Dana, I think part of that ozone smell was due to radiation on stainless.

A few years ago I was in a tunneling electron microscope lab and the only thing in the lab was the microscope which was made out of stainless and stainless alloys and it used hi energy electrons and produced x-rays and the lab smelled just like a sub.

just an observation....

Hey Chauncey - I am hoping to make it to Austin for my Alma Mater's football game against the Texas Longhorns on November 7th. This will be our 2nd meeting. In 2007 the Horns edged us (UCF) out 35-32 when we fumbled on our would be winning drive. We will have to get together since you live pretty close to Austin.

Chauncey,
Do you still have the bread truck.

I remember me and Jay Kisor chasing the bread truck in a parking lot at a ship's party. We were drunk and our wives were pregnant and not too happy. It was very cold. Mr. Pruitt, Teddy and Bill (George) were at our table. When we were leaving I went into the coat room and tried on the captain's wifes fur coat.

Man I completely forgot about that bread truck you drove Chauncey! This website is going to bring back lots of memories.

I do believe I remember those perticular rough seas.I recall being topside on watch hanging on for life but I remember how beautiful the stars were and how close to a feeling of total freedom I had. Yours Ron J rosoff
