Nevermind the Humans
I picked up the following from Slashdot:
dylanduck writes "How do you defend a ship against torpedoes? According to the US Navy, you line the hull with loudspeakers and blast the incoming missile with such a devastating blast of sounds that it explodes." When asked about the possible ecological effects on marine life the military had no comment.
Sometimes no comment is the best answer. Of course, some people need to be reminded in terms that their own tiny minds recognize. Ie that when you sink a battleship or a nuclear sub, it might take some plankton with it.

If the ship only uses the technology when it detects torpedoes, cool. If it goes around with the peakers blaring all the time, I have a problem with it.
