Tom,

I dunno.. I think an H bomb would be a horrible waste. I'd use a Neutron bomb - and several to boot. That way we can go get all that real estate on the cheap.

>One thing they promised us when I was in the Air Force – if you die they will send you back in a pine box. Pine got too expensive so they changed it to a body bag. You sign up for a tour and your life is worth $10,000 if you die and are pronounced dead. If you are MIA, your life has no value. You are there to do a job and are expendable – there is always another number to take your place.

>The Chinese can do what ever they want – like put the pilot on trial and all the rest of the military personal as well. The real “gung ho” (retired military on CNN interview) types have said “the plane should have been ditched”. And kill everyone aboard? Now, that is what “real Americans” think. We must save our surveillance equipment at all cost!
