No, it's not clear that Neal had anything to do with this, and Bob never
leaves the dock, so it must be true...

"Australian physicists reported that giant methane bubbles, which sometimes
emerge from solid methane deposits under the ocean, can sink ships."

I saw this theory demonstrated at least 10 years ago using a model tanker in
a large swimming pool. The ship sunk quickly.
In an unrelated story, gaseous methane has been inexplicably rising from the
ocean floor near Florida's Keys; divers report seeing cedar buckets
littering the area. No boats have been sunk but a few gulls have taken ill.

Ummm...does anyone here actually read? There are no more ships lost in the
Bermuda triangle (amount of vessels operating in Sq. miles of water) than
anywhere else.

That's a fact you can look up, even though it's not very exciting.

Well, maybe there's methane in the NY area. The evidence is that
you're completely lost at sea.

He is correct and your response is so typical of what remains of this NG
You cast aspersions upon his good name you cowardly beast you. you
besmirch his integrity whilst hiding like a child behind the dress of the
internet.
Fact is, given the amount of traffic in the "triangle" there is no reason
to break from parcimony; the easy explainations will do.
I fully expect you to pick up your pride and realize you have erred and
will nothing more to say on the subject unless you do it with the respect
and diginty this man deserves............kakkakkakk!!
now go back to sleep and dream of when you actually used to sail.

Good God Rick, are you mad? Have you not followed the weeks, nay, months, perhaps
years of vitriol that has been exchanged between Ganz and Booby? Why should you expect
the leopard to change his spots in this instance?

You are however correct about the veracity of the Boobster's claim in this case, were
it otherwise (the risk that is) Lloyds would require additional premiums for policies
covering vessels intending to ply those waters and such is not the case.

Cheers
