Update on the Japanese trawler

No news to tell, she's still making slow, stately circuits of the Ross Sea under the sole control of the elements. I've discussed the issue with several people here though, and one of them said that 'if the ship continues to threaten an oil spill in the area, the Australian's should just blow her out of the water'.

I looked hard into their eyes for any sign of irony, but none were forthcoming.
