So, can salvage divers rescue the chips in those cars? They're nearly as valuable as the rest of the car!

That area of ocean is around 10,000 ft deep, so salvage is very doubtful

I was being a little facetious.... winking smiley
Yeah, that's probably more challenging than their worth... by a lot. A whole lot.
Cool plot for a movie, though! Except it would have to be something more interesting than computer chips...

That's an extreme method to keep pirates away.

Kind of throwing the baby out with the bathwater.






I am that Masked Man.

All you can do, is all you can do.

There’s trouble — it's time to play the sound of my people.

Your boos mean nothing to me, I've seen what you cheer for.

Insisting on your rights without acknowledging your responsibilities isn’t freedom, it’s adolescence.

I've been to the edge of the map, and there be monsters.

We are a government of laws, not men.

Everybody counts or nobody counts.

When a good man is hurt,
all who would be called good
must suffer with him.

You and I have memories longer than the road that stretches out ahead.

There is no safety for honest men except
by believing all possible evil of evil men.

We don’t do focus groups. They just ensure that you don’t offend anyone, and produce bland inoffensive products. —Sir Jonathan Ive

An armed society is a polite society.
And hope is a lousy defense.

You make me pull, I'll put you down.

I *love* SIGs. It's Glocks I hate.

They didn't sunk, either - they sank.



It is what it is.
