CNN is carrying a breaking news story from British Columbia.

A runaway ferry could not get into reverse thrust and plowed through a
marina crushing a number of small boats.

We should obviously outlaw all boat traffic.

No. The problem is *water*. Get rid of that and all the problems with
marinas, ferries, small boats and the need for Coast Guard, etc will go
