[Trust but Verify]

Before we start a general bashing of cruise lines or add these people to the list of possible sex-slaves, let's just have little reality check.

First of all, some of the people 'missing' from cruise ships have been men. One of the women was lost on a Mexican Riveiera cruise, not in the Caribbean.

Second, in every case that I am aware of, the person who was later found to be missing was on the ship when it left port, so they apparently went over the side for hateer reason. Murder or suicide or by accident.

I think we have a trend going... None have been found,
to my knowledge."

I don't see any mention of "Sex Slaves" - Some passengers may have wanted to disappear.....dramatically. Cruise ships have all the trappings of "Love Boat" and "Titanic" to the fragile psyches of romantics and drama queens.

Bashing cruise lines?
Wasn't aware "I" was doing that.
Certainly wasn't my intention.

Thought I was stating what's
reported in the news.

Nothing more, nothing less.
