So I guess no matter how advanced your technology is, you should really invest in some brains not to beach a nuclear sub. And a great top of the morning to you andy.

Hef is right on all things. Except for when I disagree with him. In which case he's probably still right.

Do you seriously think that he would post something that would paint the UK in an unflattering light?

The bigger question is:  why not an Andy appropriate subject?

He did post a link about this in General Discussion.  He started a thread about how awesome the submarine was before it got stuck, but included a follow up link about it being stuck later on.

That's right, it got grounded but in the most advanced way possible. Btw, there are 9000 people living on Skye.
