      - The way you present all the topics here incl. all the proper research done
      - How you handle situations such as the one with the journalist
      - Your diplomatic and fair stance relating to the current crisis
      Thanks for all that and keep up the good work.

    "Just remember most of the people out here are trying to do their jobs." Just remember most of the people out here Are People! YES. They do not need to be dehumanized and disparaged. There is more than enough dehumanizing being done on every level, the most extreme of course being to the Ukrainian People. The footage of MY Solaris with the crew showing caution and concern for the people on the rubber dinghy speaks volumes. There are well documented incidents over the years where in similar situations the protesting people are ignored, injured, and even openly attacked. Think anti Vietnam war protests in USA, Greenpeace protesters, anti apartheid protesters in South Africa and almost any situation world wide where such disproportionate imbalances in power and wealth result in oppression and exploitation in the extreme. Thank you eSysman for not only the straightforward news reporting but for the tone of non-reactionary kindness you cultivate. Also, it was interesting to see you again with the nighttime marina (complete with police lights and sirens) as a background 😀 😉
