Nah, he had a good natured sort of crazy. I could easily see myself drinking beer, shooting guns, and talking about baja trucks with OJU. With afterburn I suspect we would sit in a dingy apartment with the shades drawn talking about black helicopters and reptoids at DIA.

At times, most can be caught writing as if they were speaking. OJU went a couple of steps beyond that. Honestly, it was rare for me to be able to read an entire OJU rant but generally found the style to be wildly unusual and weirdly entertaining by itself. I think that several posts within this thread contain shades of OJU channeling and believe C59 was communicating something along those lines. I could be way off but that's the way it struck me. ![]() |

i think the russians modified a part of another 777, and used a submarine to place it out there so we would all think they didnt have it.
cause the nuke is coming any day. any day now. i swear. |

No way. It was the extraterrestrials. They are done with that part of the airplane so they just dropped it in the ocean. They are going to keep the people in their zoo.

The search is starting up again with a private company and new technology. They will get paid $70 million if they find the wreckage and zero if they don’t.

i thought the conclusion from all the work, was pretty obviously intentional pilot murder/suicide. there are a few damning bit of evidence. and it crashed in the south Indian Ocean.
-the pilot, despite not needing it, had the ground crew refill the pilots emergency oxygen supply -the comms were clearly turned off, because the mode switch, which also turned the system off, went through each of the modes for a few a milliseconds, on its way to "off" indicating someone rotated the switch through each of the modes until it went to off. -the pilot was not trained, and did not have access to, nor understood the inmarsat system, which is why it continued to ping thats not a ton of super compelling evidence, but its certainly more plausible than most theories. no, vibrations didnt do it either. |

This is some twilight zone **** right here. If you’d asked me when the Malaysia flight went down I’d have said maybe 5 years back at the most.
They aren’t kidding when they say life goes by fast.

I generally think I'm fairly aware of the ways of the world. And of course I've known all my life that 3/4 of the Earth's surface is water. That said, I was lucky enough to be invited on a US Navy DDG (guided missile destroyer) for a 5 days and nights transit from Pearl Harbor to San Diego. Now I know that has nothing to do with the area in question, but I spent a LOT of time in amazement at just how freaking large that ocean is,
I think for a lot of people around the world the loss of that Triple 7 opened their eyes to just how large the oceans are. And perhaps reminded them that, despite living in the "modern era", the world is just so large that it is indeed possible to vanish without a trace. My $.02 anyways...

It's interesting to note there is a sonar array in Hawaii That was able to track the death of a Soviet sub as it was crushed by the ocean some 2,000 miles away and then Howard Hughes built a ship to steal that sub. Well the same type of sonar array is based on a island in the Indian Ocean right in the area the plane is expected to have gone down and nothing from the navy about the plane? I understand why they haven't said anything so the other guys don't learn about the systems capabilities. But you would figure after all this time you would think the plane would have been accidently discovered?
