(1) This is a great example of what I'm talking about, Poohbah. IF you're going to war with somebody, THEN you wouldn't have to use specialized docks & gear to unload a container ship. You'd just beach the wretched things and blow the effing hull apart and charge off of it... (Or, if you're sneaking people in, then a great deal of unloading happens at night and containers are NEVER opened at the dock, so it hardly matters if it takes special equipment or a long time -- you just offload the containers to trucks/trains, and trans-ship them to someplace where the people can unload at their leisure...)
(2) I didn't mean to make any comments via innuendo. I meant to flat out say it: I think you're some kind of pro or semi-pro disrupter who hangs out here to squash speculations and keep discussions within "acceptable" bounds by ridiculing people who either insightfully or accidently stumble upon a wild truth. (However I wasn't attacking your integrity -- I assume people who engage in such activity believe strongly in their values and have the passion to act on them. I just personally don't like attacking creative thought in an open forum for any reason.)
