Hold on a sec Ed, we'll be using sea-shell scripting for most tasks.

Thread over. Philip won. :)

Well played, sir. Well played.

(Personally, I've never been a fan of the sea shell. I prefer the corn shell... which should perhaps have been called "husk".)

Corny!

It is a serious problem though. A rough outline of the project:

• Develop some submersible plastic "sniffers" -- probably done with a variant of gallium nitride lasers.

• Outfit a bunch of barges with them.

• Have the barges run on auto-pilot around the area scooping up the plastic when detected and return to home port when full -- this is the sea-shell scripting controlled GPS to rudder stuff.

The hard part for me is to come up with the mechanical design for the scoop. Has to be such that it doesn't harvest a significant amount of sea life in the process…
