Piracy involves a wooden leg, a bottle of rum, boarding and stealing
ships in high sea, an eye-patch and optionally a parrot and the
occasional exclamation of "Arrrgh"....
Since we all know how badly eye-patches and photography mixes, I
think it's safe to say that there're no pirates around our mailing-
list, and that therefore this discussion is moot.
Yes, speaking metaphorically....but sense the intent.....
