Anything new?  Paul?  Can we rent the trucks yet or are we too late again?

I plan on checking out the hows and whens in the next few weeks. Unlike a human body, we don't need to cut out organs while the flesh is still warm and pink.   :'(

Here is the latest update on Clam, it isn't good and it has a bit of hope however a small glimmer it is still hope.. The video will tell the story and she looks to be in horrible shape  due to the wasted steel topside.

Well, apparently no one from the Clamagore visits this site any more.
