  • There really is no hope for humanity, is there? If you are alive and live on this planet, you know how these people died, or so one would think. It happens everyday in our daily lives. When your ears pop when air pressure changes, when you inflate a tire, or drink a 20oz Pepsi out of a plastic bottle and suck the air out of the bottle and watch the atmospheric pressure collapse it. 

    The same thing happened to the Titanic 111 years ago when a hole was ripped in the hull and water rushed in to the low pressure void inside the hull. These forces are at work all around us at all hours of the day, you would think somebody would notice? DO they really have to explain what happened to the sub?

    Have you seen those videos where people, mainly college age are asked simple questions? If you are alive on the planet, you should know that Europe is not a city, and "Lance" Armstrong didn't land on the sun.

    I highly doubt people understand atmospheric pressure.

    Take using a straw to drink out of a glass or bottle.

    They are amazed when I tell them that when they suck on a straw that they are not pulling the liquid up the straw. What they actually are doing is lowering the atmospheric pressure within the straw. The resulting higher atmospheric pressure outside the straw pushes down on the liquid in the glass or bottle forcing the liquid up the straw and into their mouth.

    The above-mentioned stupidity vote democrat. They are why we have democrat presidents, so to answer your question, no, there is no hope for humanity.

    And given the overwhelming number of liberal cockaholics you'd think they would understand that concept 😉

  • it is profoundly reckless to have not sent that sub down to extreme depths to test it WITHOUT humans aboard. I don't understand how callus they were about not pre-testing the structure in case of failure.

    We have one source that says it made 2 trips prior to this one....

    How many trips did OceanGate's Titan sub make to the Titanic wreck? | US News | Metro News

    ...and another source stating it made 10.

    I'm still riding my Trek Y frame I bought in the 90s, but now that you just jinxed it I may have to sell it.

    A sub with billionaires searching for the titanic is a better story line than migrants in another failed attempt to invade some country.

    If you were in charge of the media and it's profits, what are you going to air more of? I know Obama told you guys what to think on the subject so it's understandable. Never take your eyes off the race baiting, that's what made Obama so good, he could redirect the herd to focus on division.

    The point of what Steve posted was about media distraction from other events like the Biden corruption.

    Hehe, compared to Donnie, Biden is a saint. DJT apparently likes to peruse top secret classified documents when he's sitting on his crapper.  😁 

    @neo said:

    The Titanic lies more than 2 1/2 miles under the surface, what did they think was going to happen with that pop can of a hull? The thing that gets me is the guy that built this sub has been down to Titanic before so he should know what kind of craft that is needed to reach those depths. Although the Titanic wreck site is in international waters, they need to somehow outlaw visiting the site.  If they don't, the grave will continue to get bigger and bigger. This is what happens at pressures of just a 100 or so PSI ?  The Titanic lies at thousands of PSI. 

    Make that 5,000 PSI.. I did the math.... That would be like putting the entire weight of an elephant on your thumb.  🙂 

    I've heard plenty of comments and suggestions that the Titanic should be off limits to further joy rides to see it... Let the dead rest in peace.  But then again, some folks are fascinated visiting cemeteries. But you don't usually need $250k to visit them.   ?

    No he's really not.

    Aside from that, no credit to Trump for appointing Supreme Court justices which resulted in shooting down Affirmative Action, college loan forgiveness, and overturning Roe vs. Wade leaving abortion up to the states where it belongs?

    My guess is no, that you're no different than the liberal demonrat scum that supports that shit.

    Peace OUT.

    I'll just say this about the news coverage on the Titan-ic Steve... How many millions did the US Coast Guard and Canada waste looking for five people taking a joy ride to see the real Titanic? I've heard it opined... Should we add five more deaths to the Titanic death toll? I'd be all for it... BTW, my A#1 and expert bike mechanic Roger said years ago... When you ride a carbon fiber bike, if it fails- it's going to fail catastrophically.  Hmmm.... The Titan had a lot of carbon fiber in the hull... 

    And regarding media coverage... how many died with that boat sinking in Greece? Near crickets by comparison.    Peace, OUT.

    Obviously, you didn't open Steve's link. What the fuck does that have to do with the media stringing out the story for 3-4 days to distract from the idiot you voted for.

    It was announced by the US Navy, that the explosion occurred Sunday which would have killed all those aboard. Pieces and parts of the sub all over the ocean floor.

    Peace OUT, ya buffoon.

    really? I didn't know that. been too busy, I guess. New knee is in one week. It will be robotic-assisted. This enables amazing accuracy, smaller incisions, fast recovery - and you go home about six hrs hr. The same day. The very best robotic system there is. I did ask my surgeon, who is very highly rated.... when we met with him, if the robotic system precluded him from using the best artificial knee on the market - he said the one they use is proprietary, only uses one knee, he said "great question - the only knee they use, several advanced studies have shown, is the very best knee."

       He said he was startled at how much worse my knee was after the CAT scan 3-D showed a lot of damage that x-rays would never show.

       For the first time in my life, I will have two terrific knees. I told him after I get done with phys therapy, I was thinking to go back to hs and play tootball, rb, just for one game. Yeah, it's good to have a surgeon and a Wife that laugh at your jokes. Thanks.

    Hoorta could take a lesson here, Cal admitted he didn't know something instead of twisting things just to argue lol.

    That's pretty cool with the knee. I work with a guy that has bad arthritis in both knees, mind if I ask who the doctor is?

    maybe you should grow a pair and start being honest with your posts. You are pro life, but you vote for the likes of biden and obaMao commie and their unlimited abortion - including partial birth abortion, etc.

    so, pretend all you want. I will say AGAIN, as I've said many times in the past - I did NOT like Trump. Absolutely couldn't stand him.

    But, given the choices, after the primary, I really started LISTENING to him, and realized that, despite his warts of personality, he meant to keep his promises. He kept so many of them.

      I keep posting this - as proof that we voted for the far better president.

    https://trumpwhitehouse.archives.gov/trump-administration-accomplishments/

    Every single person on this forum can scroll all the way down. You keep running away from the truth about matters.

    AGAIN, the above list - anyone can quibble with a few here or there.

    But I dare you to man up just once, and list the things that you obaMao and biden have done that were GOOD/GREAT FOR AMERICA.

       You keep losing, never learn.

    Make your list, don't run and hide from the truth ...again. Let everyone here appraise the difference between the list I posted, and your list.

    Your TDS is glaring with that one.

    You say I'm dead wrong, yet you can't bear to say you support Donald Trumps SC appointees, can you? Rather, you state your pro-life position, ignore my question and then proceed to blather profusely about Trumps personality/ego. And to your attention span, how many times must we say no one likes Trumps personality, or the way he conducts himself?

    Again, do you give Trump credit for his outstanding SC appointee's?

    C'mon doofus, you can say it!

    TDS? You guys have SDTS- Support Deranged Trump Syndrome. I'll stop when you're willing to admit Trump is a loose cannon with serious mental issues- and has no business being within 100 miles of the White House anymore considering his (at this point alleged) criminal activities. FYI, his (former) pals can't jump off his sinking ship fast enough, and are singing like canaries to Jack and the Federal prosecutors. Stay tuned- I've got Georgia on my mind in another six weeks...You wouldn't want to bet me Trumpie just may push his criminal counts over the 100 barrier there?  😁 😁 😁 

    LOL outstanding SCOTUS appointees that flip flopped from their confirmation hearings? I can support their decisions- without supporting the Orange Menace.  Yeah, McConnell couldn't get Barrett on the Bench fast enough- and stalled for a year to keep Garland off.  Hypocritical politics pal. 

  • someone is having pants-wetting afraidsies to make a list of his biden and obaMao's good and great accomplishments for America !

        Someone who won't have a great 4th of July because of booze, the fireworks are in his head?

    Drunken Fireworks is a short story written by Stephen King. It was first released as an audio book in 2015 as one of the stories in a short fiction novel titled The Bazaar of Bad Dreams. Stephen King mentions an anecdote with this short story, wherein an old woman, recognizing him at a grocery store, told him that she does not like horror stories.

    Trump was far from a loose cannon and has no mental health issue. Sometimes he went overboard but so what. America truly was great under him, he even had the rest of the world in check.

    You keep mentioning criminal activities but yet he's not locked up for as hard and desperately the left is trying.
