With “fascinating” being the key word, one of the individuals that I know more than fable about is Jacques-Yves Cousteau. (1910-1997) His total life involvement and dedication to his curiosity was never diverted by the realities of precedence, business, faineances, international politics or hazard. From being a tinkerier and inventor of SCUBA itself in his twenties, to working through and past the worst of cold-war restrictions and borders, he remained the head of a focused purpose to explore the truly unknown that is all around us. He turned the need for sponsorship and underwriting into his greatest ability to communicate and relate to the masses. Very fascinating person to me. The motto on the Calypso's (his ship) was "We must go and see for ourselves"



How can you stand the tripe on TV today after knowing of people like Carver, Cousteau, Gandhi, Goodall, Kepler,..........?? LMAO
