after pumping nearly a boat-load of water from the relic's silty compartments.

I read that as "silly compartments", and immediately began speculating about some cold-war-era conspiracy with The Brits. Maybe they kept a John Cleese on board at all times or something.

The company that is selling that super-soak-up stuff on teevee should not miss this chance. Show how they can soak up all the silt and water in that sub with just one cloth.

If it were *more* than a boat-load, wouldn't they be pumping too much?

Led by a Virginia Beach-based team, salvage crews hoisted the submarine Juliett 484 after pumping nearly a boat-load of water from the relic's silty compartments.


Just to be sure: is that a metric boat-load, or imperial?

I hope you intentionally used that picture and didn't rely on a GIS hit. 'Cause that picture is from an episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation.

I love that infomercial. Instead of the hyper-enthusiastic host you usually get, this guy seems like he's one step away from screaming, "Hey, asshole, why haven't you bought this yet? What the fark is wrong with you? This is the best goddamn product you'll ever buy!"

*groan* It's spelled ALPHA, you half-witted no-brained...

...waitaminute, maybe the Russians spell Greek letters differently... or something...

*Googles it*

Well, I'll be damned like a torpedo.

Thomas Dolby references. NOTHING is obscure on FARK.

30 feet and how many months to plan...compared to 350 feet and absolutely no time to prep...if you were going to save the crew?

no comparison...except they were both sunk submarines.
