Nuclear Subs 'Collide In Ocean'

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the that's-gonna-look-bad-on-the-resume dept.

Jantastic noted a BBC report saying "A Royal Navy nuclear submarine was involved in a collision with a French nuclear sub in the middle of the Atlantic. It is understood HMS Vanguard and Le Triomphant were badly damaged in the crash earlier this month. Despite being equipped with sonar, it seems neither vessel spotted the other, the BBC's Caroline Wyatt said."

    I was just robbed :( Of my future. The perps were a hip black guy, a weasly white guy that looked constipated, and a slightly creepy cougar type woman. They stole 700 billion from me.
