I'm not exactly a wiz kid at math but I fear you made a miscalculation when you categorized the Smallidge Point crowd as belonging to the 0.5 percent club. My guess is many of them belong to the 0.000000000005 percent club. And if you think being a journalist gets you the cold shoulder from them you ought to try mowing their lawns!
Well.... Amsterdam is not banning cruiseships.. They've voted for a 5 year plan to move cruiseships away from the downtown area and to a a brand new terminal further away from the city center. The construction of the new terminal will begin shortly
Thank you Milton for reporting this trend worldwide. The United States and especially MDI with a National Park should lead the way in banning all cruise ships.
