ghost ship mystery
http://www.cnn.com/2003/WORLD/asiapc...hip/index.html
So, what happened? Pirates? Sightseeing and forgot to turn off and tie up the boat? Aliens? What's your best guess? |

Most definitely aliens! Remember the old standby rule:
"When confronted by an unexplained mystery, assume it's the work of aliens. " |

I heard an Australian Federal Police guy on the radio this morning; the AFP reckon they're close to figuring it out, and they're acknowledging that piracy is the most likely explanation. He said one thing I found interesting - that it is unusual for pirates to kill the crew. Sometimes one crew member will be offed to make a point, but usually pirates will just lock up the crew and ransack the boat. |

I think they are being anally probed in some alien purgatory, along with the crew of the Mary Celeste.
