Re:That Baltimore bridge 10 Months, 2 Weeks ago

Toronto enquired, "Perhaps you'd tell us where these crew activities were reported?"
Perhaps Toronto can re-read my informed speculative enquiry? "Soon after the boozed up crew returned from Baltimore's well known late bars and brothels. Then unfit to properly operate the ship's complex power plant?"
The current uninformed Fake Media speculation is focused on the Baltimore bridge structure, the captain's powerless drifting and prompt 'May Day' to the authorities, also recorded on the ship's Black Box.
But NO speculation on WHY the power failed TWICE?

To be fair, from 1960 to 2015, there were 35 major bridge collapses worldwide due to ship or barge collision, with a total of 342 people killed, according to a 2018 report from the World Association for Waterborne Transport Infrastructure. Eighteen of those collapses happened in the United States.

A reasonable and informative response had my post read that the Baltimore bridge structure looks uniquely dodgy for bridges.
But it didn't.
