degbads: Just a side comment here, i used to be a regular nairlander but for the past 7 or 8 months this has just been by second time logging on to nairaland, the main reason i stopped visiting nairaland was the quality (or lack thereof) of the comments from fellow readers. i read this same story on Yahoo, and just by reading the comments i already gathered a lot of intelligent information, many of those commenting already know there have only been 4 Boeing 777 crashes - 3 on land thus narrowing this further to MH 370, i read analysis of how ocean currents work and how this might have affected final landing place of the piece of debris, i read about shear, stress and impact analysis on the piece of debris, i also gained very good information and comparisons on previous airplane crashes, simply put, i gained a lot of information and became more intelligent just by reading the comments But on Nairaland, its a very different matter, just read all the comments here and see if they make u any more intelligent, let's not even bring up the FTC space bookers (pls is that still done or have the mods dealt with it). i am not dissing my compatriots at all - i am glad to be a Nigerian, but i just begin to suspect we may not be very informed and erudite in this country o, try comparing the diction (not accent) of a 5 year old child raised in USA and one raised here, they are miles apart. I remember a 'Nigerian' Pastor once giving an illustration, he said whenever he is taking healing testimonies at crusades in South Africa, people from that region are able to say, i was suffering from acute tendonitis, or muscular dystrophy or whatever (i am not in the medical field) and then God healed me, but they were able to accurately name their diseases, but most times in Nigeria, what obtained was 'my body dey pain me for here, my leg swell up, or i dey feel one kind for here etc. You can also analyse how our politicians talk and see more. My point is, i think there is something very wrong with our education culture and we might need to work on this particularly those of us in the younger generation - let's pay more attention to education.

blackbee: These people are dead.. Why are they still looking for the plane?
Question for the Americans, nd I guess the answer tells a lot why they are better off. They don't give up until everything about anything is satisfactorily explainable.

that said sha, i still think Nigerians are still very special, very religious, very generous and free spirited. I love Nigeria
So true Nairaland is full of dumb kids who can't write complete sentences in good English The quality of discourse here is so poor. I switched my intellectual discourses to Twitter. Nairaland is currently for banter.

more than a year ago, tb joshua spoke about the mystery of the missing plane he said that it is stuck, caught in the deep sea between indonesia and the indian ocean and they would begin to discover particles of the plane on the shores, even the 'arm' of the plane
it either takes crazy boldness to say that kind of thing, madness or a true revelation from God we need to begin to acknowledge this prophet of God i'm telling you, other countries are beginning to recognise and appreciate him more than his own country men
