Because I R dum.
Thank you!
A couple (?) of days ago I read the 24 man Indian crew was being held or gonna be arrested or something of that nature. But also that any ship going through Suez has to have 2 local guys, assumedly Egyptians, being pilots through the canal. And there have been problems with the lotcal pilots such as not paying attention, drinking, eating, playing games etc. Just feeble memory kicking in. Could be mis/disinfo, real, who knows.

Interesting, thanks for sharing. Worth knowing about for future reference and corroboration.
On the current Suez situation, it’s not completely weird - but somewhat weird. The MASSIVE Bitter Lake in the middle is empty, yes. But, there is some traffic at the southern end of the south canal, and northern end of the north canal. The south canal’s traffic is all moving south. This *could* be normal - it would be the normal method to change the prevailing traffic direction, as the southern canal is completely one way.
But, the north canal has two separate lanes, so it can have two way traffic. The entire lengths of these dual lanes are empty. The first few miles to the entry from the mediterranean is single lane, and does have some traffic, going south.
Worth checking for yourself if you want: vesselfinder.com
U R smart.
Don't kid yourself.
Push the button, smarty britches. You will enter a whole new world of competence. Join me.
Re: no traffic in the Suez.
Remember the stuck ship was being searched?
What if there is a ‘device’ hidden in one of the containers?
Would take some time to find it, and ‘take care’ of it.
I remember this one time talking smack on somebody in what I thought was a pm, then I looked up and it was posted on thread.
You shoulda seen the dance I had to do to get outta that one.
No idea, I have never been to that site before
Twitter (& FB & YT) have become home stomping grounds for idiots and frightened bigots --- and some good people also. I suspect it may be time to cede those SM to those cretins, as their owners seem to prefer. New alternatives are popping up, and I see that as an encouraging sign.
As long as tyrants rule those forums they will attract mostly unthinking people. I couldn't get my son off of FB, but they kicked him off enough times that he finally got the message.

Good nighty, Joe BidAn.
I just need to use more care and forethought.
Something’s happening. But what it is....?
Sorry. I ain’t buyin’ it lock stock and barrel. It’s closer to the enemy of my enemy is my friend. Trust but verify also comes to mind. You think Putin doesn’t want to reconstitute the USSR—the countries - not the system?
Even our allies ain’t exactly true allies. I don’t trust Putin or them.
I have to wholeheartedly agree. How long before there's no turning back? (Taiwan, the dollar, the Constitution and SCOTUS, uncontrolled invasion on our southern border, continuing deaths, etc.)
Putin was secretly baptized as a baby by his Mom. Russian Orthodox Church. Hello yourself. I don’t really believe that the USA has many true allies-especially without DJT as POTUS.
Trust Putin.
