Do as I say, not...

I mentioned the Costa Concordia the other day.  It's captain is on trial for manslaughter, and is accused, among other things, of taking to a lifeboat while the majority of the passengers were still on board struggling to survive.  Not sure whether this is a criminal offence, either in Italy or here, but it certainly goes against the long-held convention that in circumstances like this, the captain is the last person to leave the ship.  So it somewhat beggars belief that he has recently been engaged to give a lecture at a University on - wait for it - "managing panic"!!
