Publius - because I happened to be reading the Federalist Papers back when Al Gore invented the internet, I needed a public name, my paranoid brother (wisely) told me not to use my real name, so I stole one. Hey, they stole it first.

F-27 - because I had a 1990 Corsair F-27, a fast sailing trimaran. If you get tired of arguing with me about politics, let's talk sailing. I'm no blowboat snob, got a ski boat and jetski as well. Yes, kayaks too.

When on land, I sell boats for a living, and grow lots of different tropical fruits and orchids for fun and, I hope, profit. (Darn natural disasters!)
