Last week on my return flight from InterVarsity's Graduate & Faculty Ministry Staff Team Meetings I met

• Captain Eric B. Forsyth, http://www.yachtfiona.com/, a British seaman living in Long Island who had been evacuated from Yosemite National Park due to the snowfall (and expected additional snow).  It was the first time the park had been closed since 1997.  Lots of material on his various voyages, including video of his 2009-2010 circumnavigation of North America via the Northwest Passage, http://vimeo.com/13791194.  Wow!  He's always looking for crew :-)
• a Samoan with stories of flying in the South Pacific Islands and a commentary on the rush of boarding Southwest
• Johns Hopkins Medical student with a mutual friend or two.  We were at the same 2011 Christian Medical & Dental Association Winter Retreat.
