its silly that someone who solo-publishes a paper still needs to refer to themselves as "we" cool paper

Try replace each instance of “we” with “I” and you will notice it will sound weird and narcissistic. At least that’s how I (we) feel

Would you rather they add a cat to justify the plural? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/F._D._C._Willard

(obviously this is indeed an improvement over a solo paper)

As did Yuri Knorozov, linguist who played a major rele in deciphering the Mayan language.

> Knorozov listed his cat Asya as a co-author on his work, but the editors always removed her. He always used the photo with Asya (above) as his author photo, and got annoyed when editors cropped her out.[32]

However, Asya was included in his statue.

Mentour Pilot recently released a video with another sensing method for estimating the last movements of MH370: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y5K9HBiJpuk

I found this video to be the most well researched, cited, and coherent explanation of what must have happened. Amazing the scrutiny which can be applied by the global community on such singular events.

I'm always surprised that nobody has asked the US Navy if they heard anything. It's somewhat well known that US nuclear subs hang out in the Indian Ocean, and they have big ears.

My best guess is that its in their best intrist not to. We know the navy has super precise microphones underwater to detect weapons feasting both conventional and nuclear, as well as using the sensors to monitor for ship activity....like sub's or unmanned water drones.

I'd assume that if they release any info on if they heard something via a sub or some sensor.....its basically burning an intelligence asset, as it can reveal information about the actual sensor and possibly it's general area. Best option would be to just stay silent and deny if asked, and refuse any FOIA request on the grounds that releasing sensor data even if its not the raw data could lessen the effectiveness of our Intel/sensor network.
