ARE YOU KIDDING ME!?!?

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20100329/ap_on_re_af/piracy

I guess the only way SOME people learn is AFTER a .30 caliber lobotomy.

On a totally off topic note, I sometimes click on the banners here - you know, support the forum - That's how I found the Mahindra dealer somewhat near me.

I do NOT think I got it here but....
I've been getting a lot of pop ups not related to the banner(s) and redirected search results. Crap, I got some Trojan horse or some kind of viral 'infection.' OK, who knows the best free 'scan and fix' that doesn't take a programming degree to do? spybot and AVG are only finding cookies.

They make good money off those captured ships. I bet they dumb owners will pay several million to get it back.

If people stopped paying they would stop.

Rather than all the goods by ship costing more because of payments, I would like to see Saco Defense sell them cal .50 insurance policies - at only $14K, they're much cheaper than paying ransoms.
