Another incredibly well researched article. Maybe they should hire you. Apparently you know more than Wray, and Mayor Pete. I too had kind of forgotten about this and just figured it was going through its process. So glad you’re on the job !
I saw a podcast interview shortly after the incident in which the guest (a ship captain) stated that it's not uncommon to receive tainted fuel in US ports. He said often after taking on fuel some ship's engines run poorly or irregularly (my words, not his). He suggested the ship's engine may have died because of this. Who knows?
I have never heard this and it seems like a valid explanation. I just wonder why we are so completely incurious about this event. I looked this up and there are lots of reports of "dirty fuel" that can cause ships to lose power. It would seem to me that if this was the root cause, we could find some evidence. I hope they look into this--it would be good to know!
