Curious coincidence -- from the Arc Flash site --
<http://www.arcfault.org/Shipelectricalf.htm>

My father designed and (I think? -- gee, I used to know) also built
this submarine, and one of the members of my parish has written
software for it.  As to the "some flooding" --relatively speaking it
only takes a few teacupsful to sink a submarine, otherwise they'd
never submerge.  Every large navy operating submarines has had at
least one sink at the pier...I've heard that this one was pretty
close.  After the rescue off San Diego the Navy eventually decided
not to repair her, and she was stricken from the list.

Another sort of coincidence -- around '63 he was in administrative
charge of the Navy's efforts to propel submarines with fuel cells.  I
knew nothing of this until a couple years ago, but I remember when
the articles in Popular Science came out and he said "It's a long way
away," without a clue that he had anything to do with it.  It was the
year that Mercedes sedans had baby fins and Chevrolets practically
had wings -- '62 maybe?
