LOL! They'll probably state that the ship will be used as refuge for the poor crabs and cod and no harm came of it - don't worry about the gas floating on top of the berg. It will evaporate off. I can hear the spin now.

Don't tell me the Lord doesn't have a wonderful sense of humor.

The funny thing is, if you believe what Gore and his buddies keep telling us, it's amazing that there's any ice left for a boat to hit.

Thanks for the link BTW.

Don't make too much of the 5 defects found in the ship's inspection. I have a friend who is a ship inspector. He said to me: "5 defects is nothing, if it was 50 I'd begin to get concerned".

"5 defects is nothing, if it was 50 I'd begin to get concerned". That's why the good ship Explorer/al-Goracle sits on the bottom today: 5 defects were nothing.

I'm still stuck on "eco-cruise."

My daily commute and annual Christmas trek to my parents' house are considered a non-essential affront to Gaia by these clowns, but when they fly/boat halfway around the world to take pictures of ice, they're "eco-warriors."


I can't believe so many people buy into the crap they're shoveling.
