New slogan for airlines offering nonstop service from Western countries to Thailand:
"Thailand: It's not just for [insert horrific sexual crime description here] anymore!"

Seriously, though...sign me up baby, I'm up for a wreck dive. And what an odd coincidence, I just started reading "Shadow Divers" last night--It's a book about to guys from Jersey whofind the wreck of a previously unknown U-Boat.

Great book, and an interesting set of parallels to this news story: similar depth, similar mode of discovery, sub sunk near enemy coastline, enduring mystery. I won't spoil anything for you, but suffice it to say that the book leaves little doubt that a free ascent from 200 feet is almost always deadly.

That's not fair. I've been to Thailand four times and did not have sex with anyone. Thailand is a wonderful place with mostly wonderful people. Sure, it's not perfect and there is a sex tourism industry. Many other places have such things too. Plenty of other people go there for purposes other than sex crime.

I've seen the same kind of stufr one sees in Patpong on 42nd Street in New York City not so many years ago.
