But perhaps I have got you wrong. I am in Indonesia. Is the ship sinking here, do you think?

Originally posted by josephwIf I might speak on FMF's behalf, I don't think it's unreasonable to ask you: what do you mean by "ship" and by "sinking"?
Again, it depends on how one defines 'ship'. If Indonesia is on the ship, then it must be sinking too.
