What ever happened to the "Bermuda Triangle"??
It was all the rage back in the 70's when one TV program (In Search of) was able to stir up all kinds of excitement just by throwing questions out into the air.

As was-Bigfoot, Killer Bees, UFOs, etc.

So what happened to the rash of missing planes and ships? Did they stop disappearing?

psst where the planes that "disappeared" really connected to something else? ( :smoke: )

a book on it and I used to have nightmares in the 70's. Of that, the killer bees, and, of course, sharks that were 36 feet long.

How's baby girl doing? :hi:


Edited: Stupid I before E rule.

2. I was watching something just last week
Either Discovery Channel or History Channel. They figured out that pockets of methane gas exist under the ocean in that area. The giant bubble possibly created by a huge release could sink a ship. The methane in the air messed with the altimeters in older planes. They had a crew in a simulator of a current plane who was able to adjust and recover, just barely.

So, better instrumentation in the aircraft may have stopped the Bermuda Triangle.

6. I don't remember what it was
They found fiv planes that had all crashed seemingly together, but when they looked them up by the numbers on the tails, they actually crashed one by one, years and years apart.

3. From "The Age."
Mr. Heidi and I watched a documentary about this the other night. Here's a newer theory about the Bermuda Triangle.

7. I watched a great documentary on NG channel about the Shroud of Turin
It's a fake and they actually think it was the doing of Leonardo di Vinci. He loved fucking with the Christians.

12. Maybe Castro was able to get rid of it
MSM would never let something like that get out.
