Mucky’s Revenge: Poison gas from rotting squid guts kills 3
2004-04-15
EFL - I’ll pass on the calimari for the foreseeable future.
Three of four crew members found dead Sunday aboard a South Korean vessel at a fishing port in Oda, Shimane Prefecture, may have died from lack of oxygen due to a gas caused after the guts of squid in the hold of the ship rotted, police and Japan Coast Guard officials said Tuesday. According to their investigation, the surviving crew member was Kim Jung Back, captain of the vessel, the Dong Woo, which was used to transport the internal organs of squid to be processed into salted guts. The hold of the ship was divided into 19 sections, investigators said, adding that they found rotten squid guts in two sections of the hold where the three men and Kim were found. The police strongly suspect the two sections had become filled with poisonous gas generated by the rotten internal organs.

Kim K. Kim,North Korea's top anchorman-In today's top story,a dedicated socialist comrade,inspired by our own divine leader,foiled a plot by degenerate fishing-dog allies of The Great Enemy to invade our beloved homeland's waters.

John F. Kerry(I served in Viet Nam)press release-It is unfortunate that Pres.Bush does not have a plan to ensure the safety of the world's fisherpersons.You may rest assured that the world's fisherpersons will be able to fish in safety under the Kerry(I served in Viet Nam)Administration.I would also point out that I,John F. Kerry,served in Viet Nam on a small boat so I am particularly qualified to be President and understand what fisherpersons need.

John F. Kerry(I served in Viet Nam)press release-I would like to nuance my previous release.While a John F. Kerry(I served in Viet Nam)Administration would ensure the safety of fisherpersons the world over,this is in no way an endorsement of fishing.Oceanic inhabitants have just as much right to live in peace as do those who live on land.I therefore condemn the Bush Administration for not protecting oceanic inhabitants.A major focus of the John F. Kerry(I served in Viet Nam)Administration will be protecting oceanic inhabitants.

UN press release-The world community must act now to preserve the peace in the Pacific.We therefore request $50Million from the US Government so that we may send peacekeepers to the area.

BBC news report-While the Bush Administration sat idly by,a massacre of stunning scale took place in the cold waters of the American Navy-patrolled North Pacific...
