I'm sorry for again being a pedant (I'm not really - sorry that is) but who writes/translates this cr*p.

Does "the prevention of shore evasion" involve more coastal shipwrecks ?

I will not bother to comment on the fact that 90% of this text is meaningless babble , just that phrase leapt out of the morass as worthy of note.

PS I hear this &lt;deleted&gt; is looking for a job for his girlfriend. Double her current salary OK ?
