@khoji @RobertMaguire1. Very cool visualization!2. There's some problem with the nautical mile. One of the steps fathom->cable->nautical mile must be slightly off, or the n.m. is only 6000'. (I google) Ok, the n.m. is 6076', and a cable is *approximately* 101.3 fathoms.

@Penelope @Green_Footballs Indeed. And the "solution" to the paradox is to recognize that tolerance is not an isolated virtue, to be had or not had. Tolerance must be implemented as pact, a treaty, a code. It exists *between* people, it does not reside *in* people.
