Plus, wouldn't all the carbon in the atmosphere tend to retard any fire?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33311991.post-26327346794828090832008-09-09T09:11:00.000-04:002008-09-09T09:11:00.000-04:00Thomm - Based on all I have read methane ice exist...Thomm - Based on all I have read methane ice exists and some believe that is the reason for the end of dinosaurs. The 9/11 protocol HOPEFULLY is made up. The motivation of the character to do it, can be resolved with one line next issue. <BR/><BR/>I think what drew me in was making an end of the world possibly a little (and in comics I hate using this word) real.Jimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00352163584546054887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33311991.post-42654205735184526022008-09-09T08:00:00.000-04:002008-09-09T08:00:00.000-04:00What in Challenger Deep is factual?

That seems monumentally stupid. All a terrorist would need to do is get one and move it to the target. We'd set it off for them. Really stupid.<BR/><BR/>And igniting methane trapped in ice? Is that scientifically plausible? I don't know, but it sounds unlikely.<BR/><BR/>I didn't pick up the book, and I don't think I could suspend my disbelief to enjoy it, from what you've described. The fact that the saviour's motivation seems logically unsound doesn't help it any, either.<BR/><BR/>This is why I live vicariously through you spending lots of coin on comics. I'll cherry pick what sounds like something I'll enjoy and save my money on the rest.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
