Sailing San Diego Bay

On July 30, several of us went for a Friday sail on San Diego Bay, with lunch at the Bali Hai restaurant.

    Bob,
    This in from Smartplanet on algae based biofuel production. Solazyme, Ecopetrol partner to produce algae-based biofuel in Colombia:

    Glad you got out on the motorsailer to enjoy the sailing.
    I’ve never congratulated you for FED and the SAIC philosophy, best company I ever worked for. Good Luck on your next book too.

    Roger: Thank you for the interesting information you provided on the Solazyme algae-based biofuel project in Colombia. It seems to me that the idea is a good one and others are beginning to agree with that assessment. You may have seen Exxon’s recent television advertisements on the same topic. They have teamed up with Craig Venter’s company Synthetic Genomics to attempt large-scale production of algae-based biofuels. Exxon provided $600 million to support the effort, and it shows great promise for the future. — Bob

    A stop at Bali Hai is always a nice component of a day on the bay, especially with one of their (in)famous MaiTai’s. Happy Sailing!

    Marc: Thank you for your message. I also enjoy the Bali Hai, but have not had one of their mai-tais. I have been told they are quite potent. — Bob
