Indian Navy 2; Pirates O

This just in (63 minutes ago) on the NYTimes website: Indian Navy Sinks Pirate Ships. One of my friends Mark McDonald is credited with reporting from Hong Kong where he works as an editor for the IHT, so I will email him to see how he is covering the story from there and report back. I don't know how fast other news organizations are posting on this story, but you might check that on on your RSS feeds. Note that it isn't the UN, NATO, the US or French commandos reacting. It's India with a financial rather than geopolitical stake. Is this exciting or what?
