johnboy - lbran delivers Gleaners to Australia by fitting them with pontoons and a sail. Somehow, he has the ocean currents and prevailing winds mapped out and knows where to put them in so they will find their own way there. lbran is a nautical (spIJ) genius. Word is that he spent his entire childhood floating toy Gleaners in a bathtub and watching how they moved. He continues to this day, only on a much larger scale. Tom langan
