Hi Dave--
You've probably covered this already, but just in case...
http://www.lavoice.org/article694.html
In the 1920s, there were party/gambling boats beyond the
3-mile limit. Now here's a new twist on that idea: put
talented programmers from other countries all aboard a
cruise ship just 3 miles out, so customers can be ferried
out to work with them.
Best, Ted
