All gangplanks should have a huge sign "Board at your own risk." There's an expectation that public conveyances are being maintained and operated properly. Apparently that is not the case with the Carnival cruise line ships and others that serve mainly U.S. ports but are flying flags of convenience in nations that apparently aren't rigorous in establishing, maintaining and enforcing standards. Perhaps a solution might be to insist that these ships be U.S. flagged, and therefore subject to U.S. rules regarding construction, operation, crew training and safety. One rule might be that critical shipboard personnel share a common language. You're too funny. |
