Those are both terrifying! But I can scuba dive and want to visit a (dry land) decompression chamber to see what getting narc'ed is like in a controlled environment so I will be able to recognize it if I am diving too deep and get back to a safer dive profile. Maybe a submarine could create a similar experience if you tweak the gas mixes? Does it use less fuel than a space ship? How many carbon offsets are we talking about?
Wow, Denise, did the Pearl Harbor tour have windows or ways to see what you were passing through? That would be fascinating.

Mama hen - you are one brave lady :)
Chris - that sounds scary to me, but I can see where it would be a good experience for you. As for the fuel and carbon stuff - I have no idea, but I imagine it's a number far larger than is good for the atmosphere!!!
Would you rather build a sand castle or a snowman? For me it's a snowman (and of course a hot chocolate afterwards!!!)

For me it’s a Sand Castle as I want to be on the beach near the Ocean all the time.

Chris, Naval submarines do no have windows. It wasn't a tour. We just flew to Maui, met up with our husbands and went back to the base at pearl harbor. We were stationed in Hawaii for 4 years.
