GUEST,Heely BS: Methane Sinks Ships? (93* d) RE: BS: Methane Sinks Ships? 07 Nov 03


Is it true what I heard about the word "shit"? It is rumored to be the letters written on manure packages that were shipped for fetilizer. It was dried and packaged, but as the ship took on bilge water it would get wet and begin producing methane gas. The first sailor below with a lantern would blow up the ship. So they marked the manure packages "Ship High In Transit". ??? Heely
