    It does sound very bad but the ocean is unfathomably fucking huge. Not just surface area but sheer volume, I dont really want to go down a rabbit hole of “how much cyanide in how much water would be considered harmless”, “how much cyanide was the ship carrying” or “how much water is in the ocean” but I hope someone does.

        You are a driver of something that moves at the speed of a drunk turtle. Over there is something that is also moving at the speed of a drunk turtle.

        Now, you’re both moving through an ocean. There aren’t a lot of obstacles out here in the ocean, very few trees. Even fewer schoolchildren.

        Your goal is to not hit the other slow thing. Just don’t hit the other slow thing. Move, but don’t hit the other slow thing. You should see them coming from, literally, miles away. Don’t hit them.

          ….and yet they did. Spectacularly…. two dangerous chemicals. Total accident though.

          Edit; corrected spelling.
