Geography/Expert Profile
Expertise
*** Please Read before asking a question*** I don't know anything about multi-purpose river projects, Indian tourism or lumbering in Canada. If you ask, your question will be rejected. I`m a bit of a self-taught expert, as I have traveled throughout most of the world on deployments with the US Navy. I`ve set foot on every continent with the exception of South America and Antarctica. I also seem to have a very good memory when it comes to remembering trivial items such as the capitols of smaller countries. Although Geography comes under the "Homework Help" category by default, I don't answer homework questions. It's YOUR homework, YOU do the research.
Experience in the area
Just a lifetime of experience traveling around the world.
Education/Credentials
B.A. Degree, Chaminade University of Honolulu, Summa cum Laude.
What do you like about this subject?
I enjoy visiting different cultures and learning about them

2010-12-28 Snow at Sea:
Fortunately, I never had that problem as I spent most of my career in warmer areas. Snow can build up, but it's not much of an issue. What *IS* an issue is ice. When it's really cold, even salt water
