Shouldn't trust anything blindly, but what's your alternative way of knowing about the world - revelation? "doing your own research"? throwing tea leaves into the wind?

Meaning what - most people here agree with you? 1) that would be depressing, and 2) who cares?

Oh , do you mean the ""fossil fuel industry"" that makes it possible for you to spool your reel with new line?.. Provide the fuel for the intense heat required to forge your hooks? Or maybe the fossil fuel industry that allows you to haul your ass out to where the fish are...

Oh, maybe you are "green minded" and fish out of a yak ... Oh but wait,, aren't yaks made of plastic??. Isn't yak plastic made from oats or something??.. Or is it petroleum???.. I forget.... Meanwhile the great whales are dying ALL OF a SUDDEN, in the areas where the geo sounding is occurring.. Just coincidence I'm sure...

Rest assured that "the environmental leftist whack jobs" & "PC environuts" you love to disparage will be your staunchest allies if new discovery warrants it. In the meantime, please feel free to pay some attention to the devastating effects of global climate change on those wonderful creatures you care so much about.

Average whale death until the sonar started was 1 whale every 3 years
In the last month the amount of whales that died would have been 24 years worth .
So you would think with an increase of approx 300 percent more whales dying should start to be asked hard questions

I mean the fossil fuel industry that can do no wrong, and whose explanations of new phenomena should never be questioned b/c we're so dependent on them. Any alternative technology that threatens them is bad.

Please do not dispute an emotional, unsubstantiated rant with facts and logic.

Thank you for your cooperation-The Management.

There's no shortage of hard questions re: unexplained whale deaths.
