Re: Who Would You Save?

Quote:
1.Dr. Dane: thirty-seven, Ph.D. in history, college professor, in good health (jogs daily), hobby is botany, enjoys politics, married with one child (Bobby).

2. Mrs. Dane: thirty-eight, rather obese, diabetic, M.A. in psychology, counselor in a mental health clinic, married to Dr. Dane, has one child.
Darn good coupling, might be able to bring #3 into the game well. Consequentially you will have at least a 3 person team that will know each other quite well. Father Frans would lead them, and then the 3 m.o. would be brought into the world as quite a good person, having some form of diverse family. Keepers.

Quote:
3.Bobby: ten, mentally delayed with IQ of 70.
keep.

Quote:
4.Mrs. Victor: twenty-three, ninth-grade education, **bleep**tail waitress, worked as a prostitute, married at age sixteen, divorced at age eighteen.
Keep... might help with the raising of Jean.

Quote:
5.Jean Garcia: three months old, healthy.
Keep... will grow to adapt to the conditions.

Quote:
6. Mary Evans: eighteen, trade school education, wears glasses, artistic.
Leave her on the boat with the engineers.

Quote:
7.Mr. Newton: twenty-five year old homosexual starting last year of medical school, , music as a hobby, physical fitness nut.
Keep for med stuff.

Quote:
8.Mrs. Clark: twenty-eight, daughter of a minister, college graduate, electronics engineer, single now after a brief marriage, member of Zero Population.
Leave her on the boat for a moment...

Quote:
9.Mr. Blake: fifty-one, B.S. in mechanics, married with four children, enjoys outdoors, much experience in construction, quite handy, sympathizes with anti-black views.
Leave him on the boat for a moment...

Quote:
10. Father Frans: thirty-seven, Catholic, priest, active in civil rights, former college athlete, farming background, often criticized for liberal views.
Keep keep keep, for the farming and ESPECIALLY the liberal views, shows flexibility and ability to adapt.

Quote:
11. Dr. Gonzales: sixty-six, doctor in general practice, two heart attacks in the past five years, loves literature and quotes extensively.
No good unfortunately, may not last long on the island itself. Have Father Frans give him and the other three their last rites prior to the life boat load up.

OK... so we get the 7 on the life boat, that leaves 3 engineers (I am including the trades person, technically 2 engineers and 1 mystery person) and some poet on the crippled boat (sinking or not). Have the engineers work on the boat somehow with whatever tools are on board to slow, completely stop the sinking, or make a form of raft to trailer behind the life boat. All this while our literature fanatic/quote machine keeps the morale up by continuously mentioning quotes of inspiration (much like the air traffic controllers in the movie "Airplane").

Therefore, we might just be able to save all 11, 7 explicitly and 4 implicitly.

So: 1,2,3,4,5,7,10 to manually save with 6,8,9, and 11 to save themselves FTW.
