(1) ..... he opened by saying he knew the boat driver ! Thus, a tighter connection to this incident (that thankfully turned out okay in the end). So in a sense he is emotionally attached to this thread.

I cannot begin to tell you how many responses I have typed, left to sit for 5 minutes, reread, and ultimately simply deleted and made no response. Patiently Waiting is only guilty of not giving it the 5 minutes
