Which one is the 18 year old baby girl?

There's no confirmed cases of it happening. There's basically a few anecdotes from people who claimed to see it and a deer carcass was found by some scuba divers off the coast of Vancouver that looked liked a killer whale might have chewed on it. That's it, there's no hard evidence. It may happen but if it does it's very rare and is probably more a case of mistaken identity then actual intentional hunting of moose.

I flew there from Maui on a little 8 seater or something, they went right past the cliffs and the leper colony

I remember seeing a video of some guy doing that. He was riding his bike down the street and his birds would fly along with him.

That's her, still missing.

Why? Are they all wrong?

All of them as far as I can tell.

I'm not going to get pulled in to a debate about what counts as a "sea cliff". This sounds like one of those things where among the locals in Milford Sound it's an accepted truth that their Mitre Peak is the highest sea cliff in the world, but literally everyone else in the world, including lots of smart geologists, says it's the sea cliffs at molokai. You live your truth, the rest of us will live ours.

My niece disappeared over those cliffs.

Every source says molokai has the highest sea cliffs in the world. Mitre Peak is higher but maybe more of a peak than a sea cliff?

I see what you're saying. If you wanted to be as precise as possible you could calculate the mass of displaced air and add it to the weight of the sponge.

The air is neutrally buoyant. It's not that it contributes a small amount to the weight, it contributes zero. For example if you had a cup filled with nothing but air and weighed it the air won't affect your reading at all because the weight of that air is 0 when you're in Earth's atmosphere.

Just put it in a jar of water and squeeze all the air out of it, then measure the change in volume of the water in the jar. That delta is the volume of the sponge material.

The air wouldn't contribute anything to the weight so it shouldn't matter

The thing is it probably is intentional, or at the very least willfully ignorant, but proving that would be next to impossible without a whistleblower. It seems like hospitals routinely issue outrageous bills and then chalk it up to a "mistake" when they're called out on it. The strategy seems to be to pad the bill as much as possible and then let the insurance company/patient argue it down if they're so inclined.

The earth loses around 90 tons of atmosphere per day. That's about 32,850 tons per year. Overall the earth is shrinking.

It does but the earth loses more atmosphere. Overall the earth shrinks a little bit every day.

They don't swim "across the ocean". New Caledonia is about 750 miles off the coast of Australia. The eels swim maybe 1,200 miles. That's comparable to what salmon do. It's plenty impressive without trying to make it sound like they cross the Pacific.

Salmon will cross roads to get to spawning areas: https://youtu.be/wZt4jJEkhWM Salmon are pretty badass. They pretty much work their bodies to death getting up river. By the end of their journey it's like the walking dead.
