Re: [californiadisasters] Re:Pentagon Has 'No Clue' Who Launched SoCal Missile

This reminds me of the promo line for "Jaws II"; what was it? Something
like, "Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water."

Are we scared yet?

One good thing about this setup is that because of the way container ships
are loaded (container-to-container, side-by-side and end-to-end), it should
be impossible to launch from a standard container ship without cooperation
from the ship's crew and the dockside loaders.
