#2 I just love these piracy reports, and the Worldwide Threat to Shipping. I'm surprised, on reading these, at how often pirates are thwarted just by the crew turning out and sending up the alarm.

This week's threat to shipping has an interesting item (#K10, about 80% of the way down) about a whole cargo of tin (tin?) being stolen in Indonesia. "Crew and ship owner complicity cannot be ruled out..."
