      Interesting information, but I wish they would have done a better job in trying to add pictures that remotely had something to do with the information. 555

            the age old feud between wild boars and humanoid robots. Probably see peace in the middle east before those two get along.

            Education is extremely important.

                There was probably at least one person in SD who was trying acid for the first time that night.

                        @Horace In addition to the above interesting video, I also learned that there is a formula for figuring out how long the chain should be

                        Vessel size (LWL): Length Overall (LO) - 2 x Beam
                        Draft (D): Depth of water below the vessel’s keel
                        Cargo type: Liquid, dry bulk, or general cargo

                        Results:
                        The results of this study are presented in the following formulas:

                        Cargo ships: Minimum chain length (Lc) = 0.5 * LWL + 2 * D
                        Tankers: Minimum chain length (Lt) = 0.7 * LWL + 3 * D
                        Passenger vessels: Minimum chain length (Lv) = 0.9 * LWL + 4 * D
