You give us humans too much capability. The Indian or any other ocean is more than up to to the job of handling anything on those ships. A few pounds or a few hundred pounds of fissionable material would be nothing to an Ocean. How many nuclear subs have gone down? If the thing was filled to the brim with anthax, or VX or anything, it would amount to next to nothing in a ocean, maybe 1 part per quadillion. I laughed when I read it. What's up - who know?

You are right about the oceans, hound. This is a calculated news release, designed to let our enemies (and their allies) know that we are watching their every move.

In the early 90's, the catch phrase was "We own the night" because of our superior night vision technology. Now, with superior satellite optics, we own the knowledge of everything that moves. (...and everything that doesn't.)

I want to know more about these goddamned ships, and I want the US media to get on it, now.

maybe 1 part per quadillion.

Agreed. Doubt two spores showing up on a California beach are going to kill thousands, let alone anyone.

I was more concerned about some deadly conagious viruses.
