you don't have to yell, I was just making a guess

Are you on Bligh Reef where in 1989 the Exxon Valdez ran aground and dumped its oil? In spite of a law mandating the operation of an automated navigation light to prevent future collisions with the reef, the tug Pathfinder ran aground on Bligh Reef on Dec 24, 2009, rupturing its tanks and spilling diesel fuel. Bligh Reef is also where Alaska Steamship Company's Olympia ran aground in 1910.

It seems best to stay away from Bligh Reef except maybe in a kayak and even then, make sure you have a tight cover on your coffee mug.
