Well, guys, can't see much trollishness here except for bad grammar and possibly a weaker sense of geography than might be indicated. I used to teach adult remedial English classes, so perhaps I have a little more practice at figuring out WTF than other people, but, I would gander the newbie (and we all were newbies once upon a time, right?) might have tried to say something like this:

I'm thinking that we just had a massive earthquake in the region of the recent submarine accident. The submarine was probably on patrol in the disaster area because of the massive amount of disaster relief coming in, and US government help as well.

Considering the magnitude of the quate, it is highly possible that the mapping of the region could be a bit out of date. Shifts happen all the time, I am sure. A five foot hill might have risen to a thirty-foot rise.


If that's the case, then come out and introduce yourself, criedmyselfblind. And welcome to Free Republic!

If I had a quate of that magnitude, my beeber would surely be stuned.

Knitting, are you in the mental health field.

It usually takes me 20 minutes to makes sense of a scarmamble from a schizophrenic.
