It's back to the 1920s-- but just-offshore programmers?

Hi Dave--

You've probably covered this already, but just in case...

http://www.lavoice.org/article694.html

In the 1920s, there were party/gambling boats beyond the
 3-mile limit.  Now here's a new twist on that idea: put
 talented programmers from other countries all aboard a
 cruise ship just 3 miles out, so customers can be ferried
 out to work with them.

Best, Ted
