The underwater mountain was definitely not on the USS San Francisco's chart of the ocean. There was a breakdown in the communication process somewhere:
Pentagon officials said they have found a satellite image taken in 1999 that shows the undersea mountain but that the image was not incorporated into existing navigation charts provided to the Navy, the New York Times reported Saturday.
Do I feel guilty about kidding about this before? Yep.
