Now you are refering to the old ones, the newest VLCC's have a double hull so it's almost impossible to sink, and by the way on that ship where fillipens they don't now how to sail as whe Europeans, whe are the masters, and they suck

I dunno. The filipinos I worked with in the US Navy were, as rule, generally very competent, organized and job oriented. I think its really rather rude for you to malign them for being filipinos.
On the other hand, I do seem to recall many ships of all description lost at the hands of eurpoean captains and crews--and asian, and american crews too.

ok, just one thing: all that is ridiculous and should stop NOW
it's not because you're spanish, fillipin or martian that you're a good sailor, it's because you sailed. There's nothing genetical in it (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/rolleyes.gif).

And your point would be? The Seaquest is a fictional vessel and it would take thirty or fourty nuclear weapons to sink it if the writers thought it would add to the dramatic tension of the episode... sheeesh!
...and the Titanic probably would've sunk just like her (later) sister ship did even if she didn't hit the floating ice-cube. The metallurgy in her hull plating was flawed, the frigid ice water of the north atlantic rendered the plating as brittle as an eggshell. Her plates were probably breaking away from the riviting even before she collided with the snowcone from hell.
...and I like Starblazers/ Spacebattleship Yamamoto too (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/biggrin.gif). I grew up on the series, until it was cancelled anyway (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/wink.gif)
, did I miss anyone? (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/lol.gif)

I told you that It ("http://www.jskgames.homestead.com/files/home.html") would be done by November, well, mostly anyway...
I'm working on something new... shhhhh, it's a seceret.

Yep. Don't know the exact specs (well, don't remember) but there was a nasty chem reaction in there - produced huge amounts of gas in a closed compartment and blew holes through both hulls. Point: don't trust 'infallible' defences. (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/wink.gif)
