Hey I'm a good swimmer...but uhhh..I have my limits. Like I said the pat-down's don't bother me - if anything I feel safer on the plane. But - if I wanted to take a boat - it costs about $4,000, takes 4 days - and then when I get there I can stay for 20 minutes or I'm stuck for 3 months. Like I said - simply "not flying" doesn't work for all of us.
