I sure hope drunk, and not intentional.

I know almost nothing about shipping or the channels there. But looking at the video, and a map, there is a good chance Baltimore harbor isn’t gonna be moving any freight for awhile.


My first concern was terrorists.

There are isolated railroad tunnels within a short distance of our family farm. Pap used to tell of troops guarding those tunnels during WWII. The Horseshoe Curve was also guarded.


It would be quite easy to seriously hurt us, with high reward, low risk attacks to key infrastructure.




American pilot?
WTF does that mean?
Does he have roots here before it was the USA?
100 years?
50?
Or is he a Farsi speaker working a visa?



Just got a notification the ship lost power.



The concern for what could happen remains
