Well I know it is hot and damp,humid, muggy but it is also wonderful in the evening. I though you would like to think about this as a 'what if':- ON THIS DAY -

On July 30, 1945, the USS Indianapolis, which had just delivered key components of the Hiroshima atomic bomb to the Pacific island of Tinian, was torpedoed by a Japanese submarine. Only 316 out of 1,196 men survived the sinking and shark-infested waters.
