Not being an full on sub expert, but inquisitive.. I have to ask.

What could burn on a metal sub for 6 hours?(no petrol, its nuclear, right?)

I am curious, I am not trying to start some lame conspiracy crap.

Seal the dang hatches and let it burn itself out?
Maybe that is why is burned for so long? Such a shame for such a fine ship.

Good thing they were not at sea when it happened. I hope all our boys are ok.

(lulz at peroxide based torpedo propulsion some other (real life) moron proposed to me.)
