Consistently, members in the Non-Sailors' Race compete to build the shoddiest vessels to see who sinks quickest; relatives of Local Americans gladly hold powwows; and policemen and businesspeople demand wearing knee-high socks with their shorts, regardless of what whatever remains of the world may think.
