  1. Only godless heathens support the DH!!! Are you a godless heathen? Well, are you????
  2. I've even seen the text of the bill and they didn't hide any BS in it, like $17.3 billion to study the migratory habits of pygmy hunters in the Australian Outback or some dumb crap like that...
  3. The executive director at the research center I work at was a former Army Colonel. Anytime ANYONE suggests cannibalization of any of our equipment to make something work he gives them a stare that could melt steel... He does NOT like his logistics messed with.
  4. I think we lost only 1...Maj Gen Greene...
  5. I think it was Mark White that it happened under...I'm pretty sure the jump was in 1986 - my freshman year. Still...I look back and think about how fucking cheap tuition was and shake my head.
  6. Is someone reading the Adolph Hitler Military Field Manual or something?
  7. Is it really a yacht if it doesn't have a 70 ft sailboat and a 70 ft powerboat on it as skiffs?
  8. I thought that was the case, too. I'm a fan of the Azores. My folks met there. My Dad and I went about 7 years ago and it was an amazing trip. It's such a beautiful place.
  9. FIFY
  10. From the NYT:
  11. As I posted earlier, that twitter headline is not accurate. This is from the actual article: I'm so shocked that a twitter headline would be inaccurate...or, maybe, misleading.
  12. Interdasting... The actual article doesn't match that twitter headline...
  13. Hello. My name is Inigo Montoya. You invaded Ukraine. Prepare to die.
  14. Back at my last company, I was flying out to the Singapore Airshow. I wanted to fly Emirates. Was going to be sweet in Business on the A380. I'd done it on a previous trip to Dubai and it was amazing. But, as I was booking my $4500 ticket, I got a phone call to travel. I wasn't allowed to fly Emirates - I had to fly an American flagged flight due to the Fly America Act. I protested because it was an IR&D program I was working on but they told me no and were pissed that they hadn't stopped my earlier flight. So...instead, I ended up booking a business class flight on AA...ticket was $11.5K...yep, $7000 more and way worse. But, it was a marketing program so they think money grows on trees I guess.
  15. Yes. It's happened before. And we also don't have "one red button" that any POTUS can push. It's a process...
  16. Maybe we won't need to use our nukes after all...
  17. The first and only test...it was successful.
  18. I'd say that the APS study is probably a tad biased, but that's because I used to work in the industry and think some of their conclusions aren't 100% correct...but, I will agree that we do NOT have any system in place to even remotely handle a large scale nuclear attack by ANY country.
  19. For some reason, his name rings a bell...

  21. Well, until 2002, we and the Russians/Soviets were bound by the Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty. Neither of us could deploy ABMs. The thought was that being able to intercept the other side's ICBMs might make MAD obsolete and lead to a first strike... Meh...Our missile defense tech is REALLY good. But, we don't have many ABMs...not nearly enough to stop any Russian full launch.
  22. Yeah...I agree. It's a really dynamic thread. I hadn't seen it here. I actually got it from a friend via text. And I can't get into CR (by request). So, I figured it would be good to post it here...
