I usually chalked the tiredness up to the six hour time shift (shifting from Zulu (UTC, which we kept at sea) time to Lima (local, King's bay for use) time) and the generall madhouse that was end-of-patrol. * Your book review of "Spy Sub" BTW? I thought that was of the only realistic slices-of-life on a nuclear sub I ever read. Didn't care for it much, never finished it. D. -- Touch-twice life. Eat. Drink.

And they don't explain why theey use nukes when Tylium seems to be even more powerful (my guess is Tylium while explosive, can't react fast enough or something.) It's not like tylium can blow up a planet or anything ** Posted from http://www.teranews.com ** |

I suspect that not retracting them in that case would suck a great deal more than the trouble of maintaining the retraction mechanism ** Posted from http://www.teranews.com ** |
