This guy ALWAYS thinks it is something catastrophic. He had several interesting theories, but I personally believe he lost it the same way Nancy or Kent did. When moving away from official media half-truths it is very important to listen to one´s common sense. Otherwise... |

AC 12/08/2005 10:12 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Re: Mccanney - Clearing Out Personnel in Antartica - Is Something Big About To Happen on East & West Coast of US ? Duh ..... ??? 1) It is Summertime in Antartica 2) Except during the summer they can NOT rotate people in and out of Antartica 3) Each year the crews in Antartica are almost 100% replaced (one long winter mostly underground is about all most people can mentally take). So .... if they are going to rotate out nearly 100% of those there ... and it is summer there... and it is the only time of the year they can do the rotation .... don´t you morons think that YEAH ... those who worked in Antartica during it´s last winter are going to be coming home en-mass? Notice that the article did NOT say that new people weren´t being sent there ... just that those there are coming home ... WHICH IS WHAT THEY DO EVERY FRICKIN YEAR AT THIS TIME MORONS!! (winter here ... summer there, right??) What an idiot. This guy is obviously NOT playing with a full deck AC |

molesworth 12/08/2005 10:12 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Re: Mccanney - Clearing Out Personnel in Antartica - Is Something Big About To Happen on East & West Coast of US ? The full story is that they´re trying to get supplies into the base (as they do every year at this time). They normally use two icebreakers to get through the pack ice, but this year one of the US ships is being repaired, so they´ve asked the Russians to help out by sending one of their ships round to lend a hand. There are (if I remember correctly) about 1200 people at McMurdo, and they need a huge amount of supplies brought in to see them through the year, so a ship is the only way to get that amount of stuff in. The supply ships and icebreakers wouldn´t be able to take that many people on board. And anyway, if they wanted to evacuate, why not just fly everyone out? Why send icebreakers and supply ships? That´s a huge waste of time and money if they´re abandoning the base. And why alert the Russians to a problem by getting them involved? Your conspiracy makes no sense... |

Anonymous Coward 12/08/2005 10:12 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Re: Mccanney - Clearing Out Personnel in Antartica - Is Something Big About To Happen on East & West Coast of US ? < Do your homework Molesworth. News sources are alleging supply ships cannot deliver their cargoes. Why the need for icebreakers when helicopters ferries supplies? Interfax spoke of rescue/evacuation! They cannot fly anyone out because the runways are mush. Airdrop supplies occurr by parachute much of the year including summer...if need be. Conventional shipping is increasingly reluctant to head into Antartic waters because of the present maze of icebergs. The large Russian "embarrassment", the Krasin, is capable of ferrying equipment and 5000 people to and fro the US McMurdo to New Zealand or Tasmania with great alacrity. |

Look, it is not fucking normal to send the Russoans to evacuate a place that is normally home to 1,200 people and now there was 5,000. That is FU for starters. Shit gonna hit fan... if you have been watching this Antarctic saga for long, you know... |

OK, I thought the same thing that they were evacuating because of the two GIANT icebergs colliding on Jan. 15 and that was why they were sending ships. I figured it might be too windy for helicopters. What is really happening down there guys? |
