You get three boats loaded up like this and you would have a viable population. You could actually get a whole bunch of people washing up on Nova Scotia.

With these new boats and our veteran crew of American sailors, I feel this is one of the best campaigns I've ever put together. The bare hull of USA-77 just left Newport, Rhode Island two weeks ago and here she is going sailing today, which is true testament to how hard our whole team has worked to make this day possible,

The important, No. 1 message is that just because infection appears in the animal population, it doesn't mean there's a higher chance it will move into the human population.

I don't know. But you're looking at a long distance inland, 100 miles or so, before they would get to caves to do art in.

The objection has been that people living in the far north couldn't have gotten across the Atlantic because they didn't have boats; that they didn't venture out into the ocean ice. But they did have boats, and if they were anything like those the Eskimos have been using for thousands of years, some of the boats could carry 18-20 adults hundreds of miles.

You would think it's not as dangerous as being out in the street. How could two boats out in the middle of nowhere collide with each other? Because boaters get distracted. They get lost in the feeling of wide openness, and they become careless.
