Would have loved to hear Burke lecture. Brilliant guy and funny, perfect prescription for a stand out professor.

I just realized that if cargo jets somehow lost their cargo over a residential area the damage would be horrible.  Your sitting at home and a container lands on you. Anyway I got to this to find out how big the actual crews were on wooden boats back in the day. Just watching a movie and realized how many people are working. In the movies there is no one sleeping. They work all the time. I know it’s a movie. But how many people were actually needed to man the sails 24 7. In the day.

I’m not sure… look up Fluyt I guess. A quick search reveals about 10 total. But again, I’m not 100% sure.

I stumbled upon Burke thru my public library. He’s fantastic. If I had kids I’d make them watch this series.
