    I'm curious to see what the U.S. reaction will be. We've strongly discouraged the piracy in the area, but until now it's been an issue that we've been on the outside of. Now that they've struck one of our ships, I wouldn't be surprised to see us get more involved.

    Looks like the pirates picked on the wrong crew.

        I certainly hope this is true.
