Hay guyz - it's all ball bearings anymore, and ball bearings make power.

Duh.

They just said on TV that they were able to close the bridge, and from the video, it looks like no cars or trucks were on the bridge aside from the construction trucks filling potholes. 6 construction workers unaccounted for, 2 survivors.

That's amazing.

I just heard that the ship didn't have power.


Terrorists probably detonated a small EMP on board.

Yes.

I wouldn't be shocked to find out the ship has had problems with it often in the not-so-distant past and decided to say **** it and bring it in anyway.

The odds of the power going out at that point after a long voyage without any warning signs is astronomical.

Will be close to 2 years, once they get the right plan in place

Yes, economically it will ***K the Balt. Port.

The regular ship pilot Captain and crew relinquish control of the ship to the Harbor Patrol crew and Pilot to navigate large container ships through the Harbor. This Harbor is considered a calm harbor so Tugs are not required to help the navigation.

So they knew this was going to happen so they slowed traffic but couldn’t eliminate it or get the workers off the bridge in time? Brutal.

There's a thread in the DC about this being some sort of elaborate attack.

There are definitely some kooks out there. This idiot is claiming that the aircraft warning lights, that you can clearly see flashing on and off before the collision, are actually explosive charges designed to bring down the bridge.

Douchebags can't even wait for them to pull bodies out of the water before turning all attention towards themselves... :shake:
