I appreciate the humor, of course, but I think students need to be made
aware (and many of mine wouldn't normally be, I don't think) that
piracy is a serious problem across the globe still... even without the
swords and eye-patches. Now they use automatic weapons and night-vision
googles.

How has their number been assessed?
Again, I refer you to http://www.venganza.org/faq.htm#f7. The crucial
sentence is, "But *real* pirates use swords."

quite understandable when someone says it was a large mouse that ran up
the trunk of a small elephant" (S. S. Stevens, 1958)
