Michel, are you absolutely sure that you are French? You don't want to eat
your horse and your English is better than that of most native speakers... I

It occurred to me that lateral motion capability of the robotic head of the
midwater submerged harvesting sea line (remember the giant worms in Dune? ;)
would be a good thing anyway, as it would allow snorting the lines

Speaking of getting the Eye of the Gyre concept into full-motion, hurricane

Indeed Vorts we can do better than this: zero ship time!
We already found how to seed/fertilize directly from land (e.g. from the
