Why does anybody think that terrorists are going to be able to locate and remove this device? Sounds pretty unlikely to me.

Probably nothing to worry about, but has anyone else read "The Sum of All Fears"?

Forty year (and six months after 9/11) later, they think to go back and get it? Duh, ya think so?! ;-)

If we see a bunch of arabs parked off the coast for a few months conducting diving operations, then maybe there will be something to worry about.

Allegedly, there was no physics package in this bomb.

After 40 years in the mud I doubt it's in any decent shape anyway....

They don't need our 1958 technology -- they stole newer stuff during the Clinton years.

If this were any other country in the world, that bomb would have been found long ago and disposed of," he said.

Is that so.

And the basis for this remark from a retired Air Force officer is?

They did NOT steal it...they bought it.

Hey Tybeeisland. We use to live on Talahi and then on Tybee. I use to go sailing in the sound and swimming at the beach - if I had known what in the waters. I don't think I would have set foot out there. I wonder if the casing on the bomb has eroded/rusted off so that the "hot" stuff is exposed an polluting the waters.

Geeze, what a nice surprise for everyone in Savannah!

Stole? Did their checks to the DNC bounce?
