Dr. Atkinson puts up an interesting hypothesis which I hope will not appeal to many sailors, because I do not think it offers what the navigator needs and I believe that it could be misleading. As far as concerns other plots discussed in the Journal or The Use of Radar at Sea, the criticism that they do not use all the information available is, I think, quite invalid.
