Take That! High-Tech Ways To Fight Off Pirates <BR> <BR><a href="http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=103209615" target=_top>http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?story Id=103209615</a> <BR> <BR><blockquote><hr size=0><!-quote-!><font size=1><b>quote:</b></font><p>Modern pirates are creating a market for modern pirate repellents. <BR> <BR>The owners of ships that ply the dangerous waters near Somalia are looking at options including slippery foam, lasers, electric fences, water cannons and high-intensity sound. <BR> <BR>As this researcher demonstrates, once a surface — like a ship&#39;s deck or stairs — is coated with the slippery foam, it&#39;s impossibly to walk or climb even with the aid of a harness. <BR> <BR>Ship owners will try just about anything except guns.  <BR>   <BR>That&#39;s because most shipping companies still don&#39;t want guns on board their vessels, for a variety of reasons. Crews aren&#39;t trained to use them, and they can be dangerous if a ship is carrying cargo that burns, like oil or gas. Also, many ports refuse entry to armed ships. <!-/quote-!><hr size=0></blockquote>
