Welcome American Thinker readers!

The good folks running American Thinker have kindly run my essay on how America took over insuring cargo vessels and how this is opening a whole new era for us as the successors to the British. See it here.

Thanks to Mike for tipping me off about the big rise in insurance costs for oil tankers, which sparked the essay.

Thanks to J.R. Dunn for not only running it but giving it first position!

Any readers of AT who visit here, I do a lot of different things and, while most of my old contributors are no longer here, I still maintain this blog mostly as a daily. I like to think at least some of what I post are stories that fly under the radar, and I always put in my two cents.

Please look around and enjoy!

Tim
