Pretty sure it's ok to use.

The other guys on the ship that have seen the model think it's pretty cool.
After wandering around the ship for a week now it seem very accurate in
terms of scale and layout.  The ship could make a pretty cool fps level.  We
are at W158:00 N34:40 in case anyone is keeping track ... even with
somewhere just north of Los Angeles.

OT ...

It's been foggy all day, so some time tonight we are going to turn around
and try to get out of the fog by morning.  Tomorrow will be the first day of
serious UAS operations.

Today I was seeing a lot of little debris fragments from the ship.  Little
bits of plastic the size of a pea maybe, and then occasionally some bigger
chunks.  I saw several "leaf" size bits.  I saw something about the size of
a cigarette lighter.  And I saw a chunk of net.  All this on a foggy day,
poking my head above deck a couple times through out the day for a few
minutes, and then only looking within 20 feet of the ship.  Kind of sad to
see so many bits of junk floating around out here if you are looking for
it.  We are a long ways from being able to walk on top of it, but bits and
pieces of plastic and net continually float by.  I've posted pictures from
today here:

I have to say, I've really enjoyed this cruise so far.  Today was Tex-Mex
day and I ate at least one tamale too many.  I haven't missed seeing land.
The ocean and sky has been totally different every day.  One day we had the
brightest rainbow I've ever seen, today we were socked in with fog.

This evening I played guitar hero for the first time, and "I rock!" at least
on an easy song. :-)

Curt.
