Hi Dave-- You've probably covered this already, but just in case... http://www.lavoice.org/article694.html In the 1920s, there were party/gambling boats beyond the 3-mile limit. Now here's a new twist on that idea: put talented programmers from other countries all aboard a cruise ship just 3 miles out, so customers can be ferried out to work with them.
