I really think they need to stop using juvenile imagery like "pirate"
and "captain" or it's just viewed as a joke. I know there is now a
"Wikileaks Party" and Kim Dotcom's "Internet Party", perhaps we should
use that name or something like "Information Age Progressives". But
"Pirate Party" sounds like "Cowboy Conservative Party" or "Hippie Weed
Smokers' Party".
