Facts that were cut to fit into the 7-8 minute time limit:

- Turlutte" is also a kind of fishing lure for cephalopods. That's why they are on the title slide.

- "Turlutte" is also slang for oral sex.

There were basically no scholarly resources on turlutte in the English language, so I had to use French sources and run them through Google Translate. I can read a little bit of French, so I was able to judge if a source looked like it would be useful or not before I auto-translated it.

What is the tanker's name? Where is it flagged? Who owns it? Was it even coming from or going to Venezuela?

Except that the majority of tourists to Hawaiʻi are from the west coast of North America. They won't have to do the social media thing.
