        \_ Oh shit!
        \_ duh, work with indian java monkeys sometime.
           \_ That's stereotyping!  Other language (C, C++, Perl, etc.)
              monkeys are also the same.
        \_ The boat was taken over by pirates!  Now no one needs to worry about
           paying ransom.  Why didn't they think of this earlier?  Oil prices
           and environmental awareness are too low as it is.  Fire away!

Print Wed Nov 26, 12:37 am ET KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia - A maritime official says a ship sunk by the Indian navy last week near Somalia was a Thai fishing trawler, not a pirate boat as originally reported. Noel Choong of the International Maritime Bureau says one Thai crew member died when the Indian ship fired on the boat in the Gulf of Aden on Nov. He says 14 other crew members remain missing while a Cambodian sailor was rescued four days later by passing fishermen. Choong said Wednesday that the IMB received a report on the apparent mistake late Tuesday from Bangkok-based Sirichai Fisheries, which owned the Ekawat Nava5 vessel. India's navy last week said its frigate INS Tabar battled a pirate "mother vessel" in the gulf, setting the ship ablaze.
