Abstract
We look out to sea from the shore, but can’t see anyone in the water. We swim far out, alone, and there are hardly any waves. It promises to be a great day, but when we glance back to the beach we see that a flag has just been hoisted, and curse those strange organisms that seem to want to ruin our holiday.
