    In the videos playing ad nauseum on the news channels, you can clearly see the ship's lights flicker out before it hits the bridge.

    It's in dispute that you have enough brains to hold your ears apart. :chris:

    I think he's confused ONI from Halo with reality.

    He's also possibly confused the random neural firings in his noggin with reality.

    That's The Office of Naval Intelligence. I'm talking about the Department of Naval Intelligence, it's two different things.

    Because it helps prove Bob Lazar's story.

    I'm not going to hold your hand. Go back watch the interviews with him or watch the Joe Rogan episode he was on. Then get back to me.

    Awww, what’s the matter? You scared to admit that Lazar claims to have seen alien tech and that you believe him? Because if you didn’t, there’d be no reason to bring him up in the “They’re Real” thread.

    The I-95 and the I-895 tunnels are also there, just to the north of where this bridge was.
    Down harbor, near Annapolis, is also the US 50/301 bridge.

    You seem to know the story so I don't see why I need to repeat it. I don't say that I do believe him or that I don't believe him. He has an interesting story. You just assume I believe in these things because I post in that thread, but you;re wrong.

    Of course you could just say that you don't believe him when you posted that stuff, but that would be admitting that you're trolling. :spock:

    You're horrible, but I still laughed.

    Watching the news, Read Admiral Jim Watson said those kind of cargo ships only had one engine, one propeller (I figured ships that size would have 2!), and the rudder was powered by electric, obviously, so when the power went, that was it, they were a floating cinder block.

    Collision speed was 8.7mph. The ship has a cruising speed of 25mph but obviously would have been restricted to lower speeds in harbour.

    I like gcaptain.com a lot. Well written article by people who know what they are saying.

    Be sure to read it. They point out aliens in the bridge. With horns.

    Huh. 3-4 years ago I'd have told you that making an idiot Secretary of Transportation wouldn't matter much one way or another. Apparently I was wrong. :PGT:
