It's not THAT tough... I mean, air is just another kind of fluid, just less dense and in a different phase. If you filled up a "normal" ship with water and replaced the crew with gill-boys, it'd not be too different overall. I'd mostly be concerned with the hideous mass that the water would represent. In terms of sheer physics, I'd not like to have a crew that requires all THAT be lugged around. Mark [/QB][/QUOTE]
