BLANKING IN PROGRESS

I can't take anything with that opening line seriously, so I'm gonna try to track down the actual report.

Also, no shit it's filled with naval vessels, it's an important trade route.

If something defies the laws of physics, it's usually safe to assume it's because our knowledge of how the universe works is flawed or incomplete.

That's what it's been every other time.

So far I've found that the admiral in question does seem to exist, but all links on this seem to loop back to the OP article, so I'm pretty skeptical. Where do you get the cables anyway? I don't want to torrent 9 GB or whatever.

From the OP's article:

Why 2012?

The way they ask this question makes it impossible for me to take the article seriously.

Tibbs, I've found that "people claiming to have found something unexplainable by the current laws of physics are lying until proven otherwise" is a better heuristic. Not that physics is perfect, I've just seen too many people claim to have created a free energy device and then don't let people see it.

www.wikileaks.ch - all indexed. For some reason that won't appear as a link.

I don't know which cable in particular is supposed to detail this. Needs digging deeper.

I have a feeling that this site may have occasional issues involving trustworthiness, like in cases such as this one.

I don't see anything relevant in the Moscow or Djibouti cables other than a mention of Blackwater going out to kill pirates.

They say they want to stop pirates, but they're really just trying to cover up their contact with the Spaceys during the Void Century!

Researchers* have pointed out that this Norway Spiral appeared at the same time that HAARP (High Frequency Active Auroral Research Program) and the LHC (Large Hadron Collider), CERN, were conducting tests.

?!

Yeah, there's really no way for me to take that shit seriously, hence looking to see if they're even basing this on anything, or just making shit up.

@Deboss. Oh I hear ya.

Now, perhaps, we are beginning to understand the campaign against Wikileaks, the Chinese panic against Google and the rest of the hype, for the spider at the center of the Web is not US diplomatic staff mouthing their personal opinions or saying Gaddafy goes around having intellectual conversations with a Ukrainian blonde, but indeed the Gulf of Aden Vortex file, which Assange has in his possession.

This sentence is so glorious, I don't even care that it's a run-on.

Especially since we already know what China is trying to hide by censoring Google (the Tienanmen Square massacre).

Uh. I'm just gonna go ahead and give up my ability to take this seriously.

Hmm. I shouldn't have posted this so impulsively. There is a possibility it's serious but just no available evidence to back this article up.

What's really fun is that in thermo intro classes, they actually have those sorts of questions.

A man claims to have produced a heat engine with T_in=A Kelvin and T_out=B Kelvin while producing C Watts. Should you believe him or call him a liar?

And it falls into the exact same Fridge Logic trap as the other conspiracies: If this were true, Assange would not be in jail. He'd be dead.

Unless he's been replaced by an alien clone.

Not really, since killing him would lead to the release of the "poison pill".
