The Rise of the Naifs: The Attack, Phase Two, Begins

[Ed Jewett]

The above can be considered a virtual discussion board form of "clearing my baffles".

Here, with a hint from a scene in an old military-industrial-Hollywood-intel bit of entertain/predictive* sandwiched by two ads for the new Mercedes Benz roadster, topped with a slice of post-release explanation dialog from "A Grumpy Scot", is an explanation:

In the scene where Ramius and Borodin are discussing what their intentions are when they reach America, Jones yells out "Crazy Ivan", though Ramius does not give the order to perform a "Crazy Ivan" at any point in that scene, or the previous scenes. [Nope. Borodin says that he's ordered a 'routine clearing of the baffles'. Red October performs a Crazy Ivan to accomplish this.].

*Of special interest given the supposed role of PROmis software used inside nuclear subs amidst the crazy interplay of US & Israeli governments and intelligence systems, of which I have read deeply and understand at a level better than all but a few, but I have communicated with those few.

One ping only.
