#2 You did it right, dear Snowy Thing — it just wanted a moderator to open the article, then close it without changing anything whatsoever. So I did that, et voilá! :-)

#3 Truman hasn't been damaged but no word on the shipping boat. It was a Turkish vessel flagged in Panama.

#7 I meant "that's the best link I can find for now." Which wasn't an official source.

Although Sal Mercogliano is pretty good.

#8 Although Sal Mercogliano is pretty good.

Seems like he did his homework. Unless you mean an official source like CNN (bees pee upon them).

On a positive note, although a capital ship of the the US Navy has collided with a bulk carrier, at least the cargo ship was not filled with oil-soaked ammonium nitrate fertilizer.
