Monster Mystery 100-foot Wave Continues to Terrorize World's Sea Lanes
This is funny...

The elusive ship-sinking terrorist monster wave has sunk more than 200 supertankers and container ships exceeding 200 metres in length, not counting cruise liners, during the last two decades.

<snip>

The US government has claimed the terrorist monster wave was a nautical myth, a creation of anti-government left-wing conspiracy nuts, but have now changed course and admitted they lied.

The wave, that rises as tall as ten-story apartment blocks, has now been accepted as a leading cause of large ship sinkings. Results from ESA's ERS satellites helped establish the widespread existence of this gigantic elusive wave and is now being used to hunt the wave down and kill it, and the terrorists who created it.

<snip>

The few oil tanker ships still surviving THE monster wave have all been docked. Oil tanker sinkings in the past have been ignored because the resulting oil slick has reduced ship hull friction with the oceans resulting in overall ship propulsion energy reductions. Last year VP Cheney coordinated a secret $10B contract to Halliburton to study building a transAtlantic oil pipeline to assure a continuing flow of oil without having to invade Argentina until their turn. Unfortunately, somebody misplaced the $10B so no study was performed. The $10B was written off as an accounting error.

Read on, there's much much more.
