A molasses pipeline?? :lotpot:

Pipe had leak 1 year before Hawaii molasses spill

HONOLULU — A state inspector saw molasses dripping last year from the same spot where a pipe leaked up to 1,400 tons of the sugary substance into Honolulu Harbor earlier this month, killing more than 26,000 fish and other marine life.

Vic Angoco, Matson's senior vice president for Pacific operations, said the company responded by inspecting the pipeline twice — at high and low tide — but didn't see any molasses leaking. The company also didn't see any molasses in the water, he said.

Must be one hell of a demand for molasses in Hawaii :lol:

Their not eating it, their exporting it.
Lots of sugar plantations on the islands.
Lots of tooth decay has just been prevented.

"killing more than 26,000 fish and other marine life"
Why should molasses kill fish? Are fish diabetic? If so, they should have neutralized it by also pumping insulin into the sea.
