Algae bloom threatens heroic sailor image

The recent Chinese algae bloom in the port city of Qingdao, combined with the late 20th century ultra-hi tech (and playground of the wealthy) yacht industry advances, has brought up the question in a recent discussion if we need to start preserving the DNA of heroic sailors. Or even if its possible to find it. 23andme might need to cave in to populist demand and start spicing up their product branding, perhaps with some skyscraper size billboards of Odysseus… you know, to capture the public demographic who is angry about the disappearance of heroic sailing figures besides certain old salts.
