And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

When Mrs. CW first saw a picture of a tuna, she was amazed. She was under the impression that they were about ten inches long, like a smelt.
Oh I know that sense of wonder.... years ago I took my wife on a trip out west, the first time she had ever been west of the Mississippi River. I remember the first time she saw a tumbleweed blowing across the road and she was SO excited! "I thought those were just cartoon things....THEY REALLY EXIST!" I was a great moment.
They are big, fast, predators. They're also good eating. Particularly the Big Eye and Blue Fin.
