I wonder if we have any posters that have actually seen them load cars
on those ships? Seems to me that you would have to have some sort of
tie downs. Wouldn't it be unrealistic to expect 5,000 cars to stay put
in a trans-pacific trip? I mean an ordinary storm could cause them to
slide? Unless they are on tracks or something.

They can't possibly tie down 5,000 cars, I'm betting. So, if they get
the thing uprighted, I'll bet there's still a big, big loss


I wonder if the REASON was that the cars were not secured properly. Some
insurance underwriter must be having the world's biggest headache at the
moment.
