Blow me down! If we find that skirvy knave we should keelhaul him,
yarrr! Hang him from the yardarm or make him walk the plank; send him
to Davy Jones's locker, yaarr! Shiver me timbers, splice the mainbrace,
a vast behind, aharrrr.

Chorus:
15 men on a dead man's chest,
Yo-ho-ho and a bottle of rum
Drink and the devil have done for the rest
Yo-ho-ho and a bottle of rum

See this link to a old youtube audio clip of the scenario you just
described. Once you hear this your compass will never bear true north
again, matey!

Right, I was asking if it was manual or some automatic filter. I've seen

I've heard that pirates can be like that; after all, Priapus was the

that's why they're so desperate for shore leave. Yarrr!
