Before you get the wrong idea, Steve the grammar nazi has pointed that out to everyone who has ever misused that phrase on these forums. It's my absolute pet peeve.  |
Then I guess "irregardless" is downgraded to a non-absolute pet peeve?
But, you must've gotten Bubblehead's goat by the beard, he didn't waste any time editing that post or sending you his "thank you" note!
Howsomever (can I get an "Amen!" for that one?)...I guess I must not have been very observant WRT this in either SH 3 or 4...I've always assumed (and I know what that means!) "realistic" cavitation speeds were not modeled in the games...er...I mean sims...or maybe I do mean games...what-bloody-ever!
Perhaps I'll give it a go on my next patrol, in each game, to see if I get similar evidence/results as "BH80" experienced. I'm rather sure that I'll find "no joy" in SH3, but I hope it does work semi-realistically in SH4. It'd be a nice variation on the always-workable "take her deep and keep 'em astern" with silent running set...
