The NEW Coast Guard

When I was in the Coast Guard I busted my butt to find Internet at every port call to check my email. Either I found a way to get my little PowerBook 520c to a phone line (I got busted in a BIG way for using Government phone lines once; was a total sham and the knew it) or I went to a place like an Internet cafe or library. Unfortunately there weren't too many Internet cafes in Puerto Rico in 1996. Now I get IMs from an old buddy who is bobbing around a hundred or so miles offshore. He says that most CG ships now have 24/7 Internet connectivity. How's that for morale! Awesome!
