Hi Carolyn, I feel particularly badly for the guys in that sub. And actually, at this point I would be surprised if there are more than just a few survivors. This is one of those situations that we submariners never really like to think about happening, and when it does...to anyone...we have nothing but sympathy. I'm sure that you would find that sentement among all of us that have ever served on subs. Like I said, I believe that there are very few people left alive on that sub (if any). The problem isn't just the amount of oxygen available on the boat (and they probably have ways of replenishing it), but the atmosphere itself. It wouldn't take long...probably just a few days...for the air to be stagnant and poisonous. From what I understand, the sub has been on the bottom since Saturday. And if there are still people alive, they could probably escape, but the water is what...33 degrees? How long would they last in that? Anyway, the poor guys on that boat are in my prayers, and I hope I'm wrong, and that they all survive this...that's my take. -Joe
