THAT is unbelievable - and believable too....

the people who did that sort of thing were brave beyond imaginable.

i think my only form of sabotague would be to not sweep up very well or dont empty the bins - drop litter, that sort of thing.

that example is really shocking - my god, you would test everything before heading out to sea. and then the thought of 'well, im probably not coming back anyway...'
