This was something that the environmentalist said on the American News interview:

Quote:
Everything in the ocean is impacted from these oil spills that come into contact from it, from plankton, from small micro-organisms all the way up the food chain. So, ya know, people go out and fish these fish that ate these things and suddenly we have toxic fish in our bodies."


Maybe this Seabed's Nectar could have the same result?

You're gonna want someone to PM that answer to you... it's been answered way too many times.

What I find interesting, is if MGP followed the tanker to NYC and then presumably destroyed it right before the SOL, why didnt he just sink it out in open water? If Chuai station is indeed not anchored to the ocean floor and drifting, then MGP had no problem swimming up to it and smashing it to smithereens. Last I checked, tankers do not move that fast.

Oh, and one more thing, the waters around NYC are not exceptionally deep, so if MGP happens to be in the vicinity (and he is 300 feet or so) wouldnt hundreds of boaters notice. Not to mention the military...

Anyone else but me here think we should start investigating the connection with the tanker, Chuai, and NYC?


Yes! Several people have asked about this, and I have made at least 3 posts in the past hour or two concerning it. We just need someone fluent in Japanese to listen to the news report again.


I've mentioned it a few times - they are reporting that contact was lost with the tanker while it was on it's way to New York from Norway and that they think the distress it ran in to could be related.
I am sure the blue circle is the approximate location of the tanker when they lost contact.


Apologies, the last post I read (or remember reading at least) that dealt with that distress call said that the call was from Chuai, so I wanted to get verification. What you're saying is exactly what I originally thought and what (IMO) makes the most sense. Thanks for clarification.


No problem. That part was the hardest bit to translate due to the English and Japanese spoken at the same time.

Though I want another Japanese speaker to listen to the section where it's talking about the armed men in the rescue boat.
I know it's talking about them having the Tagruato logo on their clothes, but I want someone else to listen to the sentence before that

Also, can we NOT have 15 pages about whether or not it's possible to throw stuff out of the water? Clover can do it. It's there in the video. You don't have to prove or disprove it.


Nobody is, we are looking at how strong TiM is.

in the english video there is a shot of the press release in which they zoom in to show T.I.D.O, im wondering if its possible to enhance that image for a closer look.


Someone transcribed the whole thing somewhere back in this thread.

In the Russian version you can read the whole thing.

Thanks spent the last 20 minutes looking for those names ( and for those that don't want to follow the link The names release by Tag are Hideaki Sakamoto, Gerhard Ploecker, Tsuneo Matsuhara, Dr. Paul Nightingale, Donald Carter, Francois Nouvelle, Andy Young-Mun)

He comes under the cover of night Very Happy .

The boaters wouldn't see him, but the military probably damn sure picks him up. That's why the military seems to be on scene in force so soon. They were already mobilizing when the attack started.

Once he gets closer I would suspect so but why would the tanker head straight for NYC? Maybe they are getting their orders from Tag and there is an emergency plan in place.

the tanker more than likely came from the station, maybe even possibly holding something quite important. Whether it be DSI, or even something else Wink..something that MGP may want. time will only tell

why wouldn't it? NYC holds one of the largest sea ports to begin with!

I would guess that with the distress call, the tanker may be damaged and is heading the the nearest port.

Distress signal

Working transcript of distress call:
Quote:

Distressed station: Mayday.. mayday.. unintelligible

Radio curtosy tone is heard

USCG: This is the US Coast Guard. Please give me your callsign.

No curtosy tone

Distressed station: Mayday, mayday.. (break in transmission) Request assistance (break in transmission).

End distress tape.


I changed the name of the distressed station to that instead of Chuai. There's no evidence yet to prove or disprove it originated from Chuai.
