Don't you just hate it when that happens? Usually means Superman is flying
very quickly in reverse around the globe, trying to get back into his past

tracking where you thought the horizon might be (as you rolled up and down)
create more uncertainty in where the horizon was? Unless the swells were
very gentle and the boat a large ship?
