Pirates Resources
Hi folks.Just wanted to know if there are any known online resources with
respect to pirates. No, not the peg leg eye patch kind, but the real
kind on the water. I want to investigate how real these stories are
that I hear about. |

| Just tried that. As expected, no mention of piracy. Maybe a better choice of
search terms would fare better. However, I did not look at all 13,300,000 search results. Just the first
couple of pages. |

| Maybe you should explain how a google search for the words "congress" and
"government" should be an especially effective way to find out more about
piracy, since those words do not fulfill that goal. |
