Detail, Samhah Island, Gulf of Aden. Photo from Google Maps.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

I just heard the weirdest thing I’ve heard all day. There is a kind of conspiracy theory going around — I don’t like these things, by the way, I’m with Julian on this one, please give me something with a paper trail — that the reason they are going after him is that he’s got this thing in his possession called the Gulf of Aden Vortex File. Usually I will get a bristly feeling when something is bullshit, and some other sensation when it’s got merit — and I found myself just sitting here reading the articles with my jaw hanging. Here is one of the articles<\/a>; it is an entire genre in Google<\/a>, coming up some 95,000 times. Look for stories of the massive flotilla that amassed there, ostensibly to stop some Somali pirates. Note, plenty of these articles are paranoid, so use discernment (don’t believe everything you read, indeed it is better to suspend belief when you’re doing work like this. Rather, amuse yourself, look for patterns and listen for your intuitive bell) and hold the light around yourself while you work. Notice that most of these articles seem to be describing some kind of magnetic vortex phenomenon. Here is the area in Google Maps<\/a>. I got this image by switching to satellite and zooming in on one of the islands. I would dive in and research this, but I’m writing your annual horoscope, Light Bridge. So if you’ve got an hour or two on your hands, please — have at it, and tell me what you find in the comment area below. Have fun!<\/p>\n

PS, what tipped my curiosity is how interesting the chart that I got was, when I asked a horary question — “what is the Gulf of Aden Vortex?”<\/p>\n
