    Yeah, I kinda figured when I read they wouldn’t even have equipment on the scene til yesterday morning, this was going to be a recovery mission.

    I dunno, the thing had questionable credentials. Hopefully it was a breach and they went out quick, and the banging sound is like…the back half of it still attached to the lowering mechanism, smacking against something in the waves. I don’t think so. But I wouldn’t want to go out the other way. Hungry and terrified, no distractions of any kind and possibly in darkness, unable to stretch out, covered in multiple days’ worth of other people’s piss and surrounded by people I hate.
