Indeed. I was at the dentist today and when I mentioned I'm into sailing,
the dental hygienist asked if I had heard of the two lost sailors. And that
apparently they had some electronic gizmo ("epirb" I said).When your dental hygienist has heard of them but probably never heard of Clipper, America's Cup, or Slocum, it's definitely a bit ridiculous (how easily manipulated the media and public attention are).
