#1 Quick summary - they've all been jailed for two months but no charges have been brought against any of them.

'So you're saying there's still a chance...'

#5 Am enjoying this show quite a bit.

Note article says 8 more, not 6 -- and that's all of the idiots who were on the boat, which Russia has siezed and won't give back. Wheee!

#7 Sadly we are not allowed firearms on the offshore platforms in the gulf. However. I have noticed there is a fireaxe in the stairwell right outside my work unit. It's maybe 15' away. Should the need to repel boarders come, we can toss the Hydrochloric acid at them first, then follow it up with the axe for close range. Should that fail, there's always the food from the galley.

#8 Should that fail, there's always the food from the galley Never underestimate boiling water or boiling oil. I don't believe even body armor can protect against them.

#10 Sadly we are not allowed firearms on the offshore platforms in the gulf.

Two words: Armory ship.

Many of the fields off Western Africa and in the Indian Ocean employ them. One ship had the misfortune of being seized by the Nigerians (for failure to pay them off.)
