GL: Talking to tows

[John LeRoy]

Coleen Barger's post was right on. There is one other useful hint. A tow 
pilot is probably more likely to answer you if you use a geographical 
location like "Patsy Slough," or "Devil's Elbow" than a mile marker. They 
know these locations like the backs of their hands, but likely don't run 
while watching the chart as we do.
