To add a positive note to today's forum...the famous voyaging canoe Hokule'a and her sister vessel Hikianalia left Oahu yesterday at sunset for "Malama Hounua", a three-year voyage around the world to spread a message of global sustainability and the importance of caring for our oceans. The voyagers will be navigating without any modern instruments. They will use the stars, the ocean currents, wind and birds as mapping points for direction, just as the original Polyensians used thousands of years ago.
God bless this crew on their adventurous journey with much success.
