So Lt. Dan has refused to evacuate and is going to ride out the storm, in his 20' sailboat in Tampa Bay. His name is Joe Malinowski and has been all over the news. Interviews, photos ... a folk hero in waiting.
Turns out, Lt. Dan may not be what he claims to be, but rather an Internet personality, farming for TikToc hits..

(Apparently Dan has at least 4 names and did a year in jail, for beating up a LEO with a violin.)
