Today I learned (thanks, NPR) that from 1875 to 1975, there were more than 6,000 commercial shipwrecks on the Great Lakes. The publicity of song led to safety standard changes and there has not been a single commercial wreck since then.

Do you do Fireball puzzles from Peter Gordon? I don’t subscribe anymore but they are quite crunchy and he has some books published of them. Also Stan Newman’s Newsday Saturday Stumpers are great but I don’t know if there are books.
