Big Jamaica fiasco

[Capt. Debbie]

Capt Tom's response should have been put at the top of the thread.

Problem is who ever shouts the loudest, sometimes is believed for only that reason.

I'm not a big fan of censoring, but a person can spend all day responding to crack pots and know-nothings (who weren't even there) adding to it. But that's the nature of a blog. The more people involved the more diverse and sometimes wrong it gets.

Gerry can't pick through each message in a thread to determine if wildly exagerated, flat out lies, or honest truth. Or just clean house- GONE!

JUST REMEMBER- don't believe everything you read.

The Internet is full of phonies, posseurs, whackos, and liars mixed in with the "normal" ones.

(let alone "closer to 100" like was LIED about in the original thread) Only FIFTY people on a FIFTY FIVE PERSON TRIP and this guy just keeps on lying and the haters pile on throughout the thread. The best thing was take it down. If I had been around today I could have nipped this in the bud much earlier (could have called Howard on the single side-band early today like I did and asked for the count but did not know this thread existed)

The truth is now known and there are people on board who post here that can confirm that there were only FIFTY people on the boat. This was a joke with wild assumptions, people jumping on a topic (which would be fine if it were true) without actually knowing what was going on.

Thank you Gerry for doing the right thing and allowing us to start from a position of FACT and not unfounded accusations that prove to be 100% FALSE.
