I don’t, but I’ve adopted a policy of looking up claims you make (much like I do with 37).

I only point it out because OLB clearly implied it had something to do with it. Which it does.

It explains it in the story.  Kind of amazing that these ships can't continue service with some upgrades, but then I don't know much about ships.

I wonder if they plan to create any memorabilia from the material for sale to the public.  I think that might be a profitable venture.


The designed service life of the hull is about 50 years.  after 50 years of continuous service, normal corrosion actually begin to threaten watertight integrity of parts of the hull and the ability of the ship to withstand battle damage becomes degraded. 

during the last few patrol of an aircraft carrier about to retire, the ship sometimes actually sail with some structural compartments flooded due to leakage not worthwhile to repair.

Wow, that seems surprising.  I wouldn't have guessed.

If our government could hold to account removing lead, from gas like we did in the 80s, and we stopped big tobacco from marketing cartoon and cowboy characters from marketing tobacco, and apply it to firearms, that would be great.

I made no claims one way or the other...

My COUSIN vehemently denied any.health problems associated with smoking.

I expect he also has not had a Covid vaccination....


I love the guy - but he' s kinda a dumbass sometimes...

Again, you’re attempting to turn this into a gun thread. You need to stop this.

Show me an ad for firearms. I haven't seen one on TV or heard on the radio and I'm in Texas FFS. Unless you secretly subscribe to 'Guns and Ammo', my guess is that you can't.

Don't you get tired of talking out of your ass? We get tired of hearing the shit you spew.
