they could take anywhere from 2 1/2 to over 4 weeks to get to Svalbard. These ships usually sailed from Gravesend, in southeastern England, so the distance wouldn't differ that much from vessels sailing from the Dutch ports. Considering Jan Mayen is significantly closer to the home ports than Svalbard, the average voyage there would have been much less, but the times may have overlapped because of those aforementioned weather and ice conditions. Seeing as how 1633 and 1635 were icy years for whaling around Jan Mayen, this may account for De Ruyter's 3 week voyage there. Giving that I don't know the average sailing time to the island, this is only a guess, but, you're right, the time it took for De Ruyter to get to Jan Mayen does seem a bit long.

imagine that the tide gradually recedes to normal and we watch other islands appear. Cho Oyu, higher than Manaslu or Annapurna, appears as a separate island while the other two are still underwater. Manaslu, higher than Annapurna, appears as a separate island while Annapurna remains submerged. Finally Annapurna emerges as the tide recedes below 8000 meters. the tide continues to recede and Annapurna's island expands, gradually collecting the peaks around it.

Hi,in South Africa the Afrikaans language has influenced the way some Dutch people there now spel their names and other Dutch words that have become Afrikaans. The smart people think they are simplifying and refining the language.. Anyway we have an ij becoming a y etc. So Brijnzeel could be Brynzeel

if this is it, then i do understand and you are correct. whether this use of the word "parent" makes any sense is another issue. just as subsidiary peaks on a ridge need a bit of prominence to be considered seperate peaks for ranking purposes, i think the concept of parent could use a proximity test.

On 16 May you reversed my correction to change Manaslu’s “parent” back to Cho Oyu. I understand your point, and stand corrected: despite the fact that Cho Oyu is over 130 miles to the east, and you would have trouble getting from Manaslu to Cho Oyu over land without descending to around 12,000 feet,

Nah, I wasn't offended by any of it. I'm half Dutch, so if I were to root for anyone it would be the Dutch whalemen. I haven't read any journals of ships sailing to Jan Mayen, but I have read several that described voyages to Svalbard by English expeditions. Depending on weather and ice conditions,

Personally, I am very skeptical that it makes any sense at all. In the cultures that use Arabic or Pashto the son's first name is the father's last name. Most of the captives in Guantanamo have arabic or pashto names. Further, the DoD did an absolutely terrible job of transliterating their names
247:
Annapurna's parent is the FIRST HIGHER PEAK you can walk to without getting your feet wet as the water recedes. If Manaslu is still an island at this point it loses any potential parentage claim to its neighbor Annapurna in favor of Cho Oyu. Presumably this is because there is a very long northern

have been doing some more research since my last comment. my current understanding of parentage is what i call the "high tide" theory. imagine that we had an unusually high tide, say 29,000 ft above normal. the earth would have a single land mass, a small island at the very peak of everest. now

Hello, did you deliberately remove Delius's name from the van Dieren article? It was reading about him that I first heard about vD, many years ago. (I started the article, by the way - still haven't heard any of his music, though.)

I'm not sure if the last name should be listed as "van der Pol" or "Pol" but all you need to do if it should be the latter is change the "deafaultsort" template. It's easier and better than changing each one in a long list. Cheers.

it is the NEXT HIGHER PEAK. Therefore, Cho Oyu is Manaslu's parent. Now explain to me why Manaslu is not Annapurna’s parent, using your system. Manaslu is higher than Annapurna, and is located between Annapurna and Cho Oyu.
