Yeh...but they’re now saying they’re picking up a ping....but absolutely no sign of debris. They all know the currents...so if they get a ping, they could calc the path of the debris.

This assumes facts not in evidence.
Most of us view the pure science of Oceanography, and the charting of currents and their seasonal changes as a pure waste of time. Who cares?

But there is a hundred years of great science ocean records, yet I have not seen a single instance of Ocean current experts providing critical input.

Or it may simply be that the average TV viewer is too stupid, dull and ignorant to be interested. So those viewers keep asking really stupid questions and making embarrassingly ignorant statements.

Except that the reported location of the ping doesn’t gel with the calculated flight path based on the Inmarsat pings, and is hundreds of kilometers from the position of the final one.

Not saying that this couldn’t be the final resting place, but just restating that their data has been full of holes since the beginning. And now a ship sailing WAY outside any search area finds ‘pings’ after all the other searchers have been on a wild goose chase elsewhere.

I’m sure they’ll come up with a clever-sounding explanation after something is confirmed...
