  We should find out more about pirates and see what drove them to a life of crime before we judge them as a community.

							Truely
  Provocatively incorrect spelling of "truly."
      Example: "In a truely breathtaking scene, the ship takes off."     Secret origin: Coined by Matt Bielby.     Note 1: The one infallible device for exposing a Matt Bielby impostor, say if there was a bit like at the end of that Yul Brynner spy movie or something.     Note 2: See also cutsie.     First used: AP01. AP was truely the Games Magazine of Champions.

							Kinda hard to see at the resolution, but it appears to be a trick of the eye. For one, I don't see a lot of folks running for their lives or their boats. That makes me think the storm may be behind that island (from the PoV of the camera) but a fair distance. It could be that the only person freaking out is the camera guy

							Yeah, pretty sure from the shot its a perspective thing.  The storm is actually behind the island some ways.  Still doesn't stop it from being an awesome picture though.
