I still think the way those ships look with their golden humps on the tops of them that they are the golden jewels. Is there a place, a horbor, that maybe a few of them sit for a while near each other? Like a parking spot? That would indeed look like a "lawn of golden jewels".

You'd never want to have a bunch of them all together. Just one would cause so much devastation. (I'm not going to sleep well tonight just thinking about LNGs)

I agree. Now, where would they line up?
Also- I still don't discount the stories about the stolen (bought) NK mines....they could be in the harbors timed for detonation.

Here are some interesting facts: Found
here:
SNIP...
LNG terminals in the United States are located in Everett, Massachusetts; Cove Point, Maryland; Elba Island, Georgia; and Lake Charles, Louisiana; and Peñuelas,
SNIP...
As a liquid, LNG is not explosive. LNG vapor will only explode if in an enclosed space. LNG vapor is only explosive if within the flammable range of 5%-15% when mixed with air.
SNIP...
When enough LNG is spilled on water at a very fast rate, a Rapid Phase Transition, or RPT, occurs. Heat is transferred from the water to the LNG, causing the LNG to instantly convert from its liquid phase to its gaseous phase. A large amount of energy is released during this rapid transition between phases and a physical explosion can occur. While there is no combustion, this physical explosion can be hazardous to any nearby person or buildings.
