That would put you in a protected class, all right.

Hadn't thought about that aspect... LOL!!

Btw, 5 weeks is probably about right... We're not permitting US warships to take the Suez canal route any longer, out of fear for more terrorist attacks, so it will have to go around the horn of Africa.

Rumour is that the COLE has been so damaged it may actually be junked.

And that's scary that a billion dollar ship can be taken out with 80 pounds of shape charge...

Maybe tankers aren't the only thing that should be double hulled (to dissipate the force of the charge).
