Just saw it on CNN, they were planning to move the USS Intrepid today and its propellers got stuck in the mud.

I just read that they started to move it while the tide was going out.... So maybe they will just have to wait for the next high tide.

Now wouldn't you think they would have at least looked at a tide chart before they started?

They probably didnt realize that so much sediment had built up around the ship.

"The Intrepid stands for everything we believe in ... our freedom and our values," Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton said at the sendoff ceremony before the tugs began their work.

Thank you, Senator, for reminding all of New York that their freedom and values are stuck in the mud.
