INAN, China — On a smoggy afternoon, huge log carriers and oil tankers thundered down a highway and hurtled around a curve at the bottom of a hill.
Today those satellites guide everything from aircraft to oil tankers, from hospital operations to financial trades.
Being an older place with small, cobblestone streets, it's hard for tankers to get into Bruges to pick up beer and deliver it to the bottling plant.
So as a student, I made cargo runs, navigating6 large freighters7, oil tankers and passenger ships to the Far East and the South Pacific.
