Not necessarily a request but an observation from a sailor....about clouds...

First off you folks doing the environmental stuff have done an incredible job.

I spent quite a bit of time out in the Pacific, South Pacific & Indian Ocean during my WESTPAC's.

The one and only thing that doesn't have me sold in terms of full on environmental immersion is the clouds.

One of the most particularly awesome things about being out in the western pacific was the incredible cumulous cloud formations.

Big giant puffy cotton balls. Add that to the amazing sunrises and sunsets with all the glorious colors going on and that nails it.

The clouds are the only thing I notice which throws the whole thing.

They just don't look like they really do out there.

This is not a snub, just an observation from someone whose spent quite a bit of time out there.

Thanks,

Martin
