Misplaced Pages

In The News

I have put a brief request for the event to be included in the "In the news" section of the main page, we have plenty of info and sources, we just need to organise it all. Any help with pursuing it's inclusion in ITN would be much appreciated. Nick carson (talk) 06:17, 13 March 2009 (UTC)

This event should be up there. I'll see what I can do later tomorrow to help out. Feel free to copy any of the information from the Hamish article since I'm going to reword it and summarize it a bit more since there is an article on it. Cyclone biskit 06:26, 13 March 2009 (UTC)

Sure thing, thanks heaps for that. As usual, I was amazed that an article didn't exist for this. I made a basic map and working on a better one. I've gone through and done a basic copyedit and arranged the info we have into some basic sections so we can make sense of it all. Nick carson (talk) 07:10, 13 March 2009 (UTC)

Explosion

"Press reports stated that if the ammonium nitrate were to mix with the heavy fuel, the mixture could ignite and cause a large explosion."

Where exactly did the press report this? It may have been reported that when you mix the two you CAN make an explosion.

In any case, it doesn't really matter if someone said it because a small amount of fuel + ammonium nitrate in a large ocean does not equal an explosion since the ammonium nitrate dissolves in WATER. Constan69 (talk) 22:14, 13 March 2009 (UTC)
