Dave in Houston


It remains to be seen whether she ASKED to be rescued.

She may be like the 101st Airborne at Bastonge when George Patton drove up:
"Who invited you to the party?"


Yup--the downside of EPIRBs is that once one triggers, if your radio's
out there's no way to stop the search until somebody finds you and
"rescues" you.
