Thanks Marc. Exactly right. Wi try and paste and post in the right place, although I suspect Worsham will see it here.
Was at work when I posted and my head was in the wrong place, obviously.

I’m currently reading the book Psycho Cybernetics by Maxwell Maltz. One of the things the book tells you to do is to say to yourself, “no matter what happens, I will respond in a calm, intelligent, rational manner.”
It sounds like the psychologists who were able to locate the wrecks did exactly that. Conversely, those who came before them seem to have been guided by their emotion-based preconceptions. (Which is why they failed to find the boat.)
