RE: No Wonder The Sea Is Salty.........
Yeah, wasn't he bit just off of Point Reyes or something? It's kinda odd. The Great White attack capital of the world is just a few miles north of SF. Studying it, it makes sense, but still seems kinda odd, especially after Jaws was some Martha's Vinyard thing.
I grew up just across the Sound from Martha's Vinyard, and I never once saw a Carcharinus Carcharius there, but did see a Mako once, and various others...dogfish, maybe a hammerhead (not sure), etc.. Talk about scary shit! Sharks scare the fuck out of me, but they also fascinate. I guess they scare me cuz I know what they do: They swim fast and they EAT. Some won't eat humans, but others do not care, it's all flesh to them. Hell in a frenzy they even eat each other sometimes. Rare, but it happens.
