    What is the use of being industrious if all your labor gets flushed for a painting going to the right political connection?

    Treasure hunters will be less likely to buy the boat knowing the government officials will side with foreign countries for personal aggrandizement.

    "In a conversation with the Spanish culture minister, César Antonio Molina, the US ambassador in Madrid, Eduardo Aguirre, sought to tie the treasure found off the Iberian peninsula by Odyssey together with attempts by an American citizen, Claude Cassirer, to recover a painting by Camille Pissarro that hangs in a Madrid museum."

    The question is... Why would anybody say anything if they found a treasure?

    If that ship was bound for New York, what was it doing in Massachusetts Bay?

    Wasn't that the same Captain that hit a reef for not following the designated path a few weeks ago.
