I am a huge James Burke fan, but other than the first "Connections" video, I prefer his books. He is a very interesting historian.

I sailed on the Jeremiah O'Brien a couple of months ago. It was a blast. She's in beautiful shape.

Saw the Jeremiah O'Brien when we visited San Francisco last year, but I didn't get to tour it. She still looked impressive from where I was though
