A While ago I was in a small pub on the south coast of England and on the wall it had an old newspaper cut out of an article. I can't remember exactly how it went but is was a conversation between a Royal Navy Officer, and the captain of the USS something or other.
Officer: Attention USS Vessel, you are on a colision course. Please change your course to the north
Captain: Negative, we are on training exercises and have full clearance. Please change your course to the south.
Officer: Negative, you must change your course to the north.
Captain: I say again, negative. We have right of way and you must divert to the south.
Officer: Negative, we cannot do that you must divert to the north.
Captain: NEGATIVE! WE WILL NOT CHANGE COURSE! IF YOU DONT CHANGE COURSE I WILL REPORT YOU TO YOUR SUPERIORS!
Officer: Negative, we are a lighthouse, f@#k off!!
