If they are really pirates then there is something that we are doing very
wrong in Spain. How many pirate parties are there in Spain nowadays? Four?
Five? And tomorrow? Seventeen? As many as Autonomous Communities?

But it doesn't matter how many pirate parties are there if we can't attract
the people who are looking for us.

Excuse me, but I'm leaving to found my own pirate party of my household.
I'm getting late and anybody could do it instead of me :P

Salut!
