Because external communications are vulnerable to jamming, and communications satellites can be destroyed. Very bad idea to base our military around the idea of putting everyone in Nevada and working remotely.

Ops guys want airframe uniformity for backend maintenance cost containment. The slower airspeed and smaller range are merely engagement envelope issues that can be dealt with by tactical adjustments and minor modifications to the airframe.

A new Camry is a better car than a Ferrari GTO.

Which is why she rung in way below the LCS. By ignoring Fire Control and centrally wired weapon systems they saved tens of millions on development and cost alone.

Is there an elevator in the forward hanger? Also would the accommodation barge just be moored alongside the ship or is it a module that fits under the flight deck?

Oh hey, look! It's the emergence of the "We don't want to blame anything on Joe Paterno, so we'll conveniently establish a narrative that holds that he was too old and senile to have known what was going on and the real blame lies with the faceless administrators that we have no previous emotional attachment to,"…

You are right. It has nothing to do with the NCAA. If Penn State had a shred of class they would have shut down the football program on their own. Forever.

I have done far more than glance at headlines on this case. I have looked at every detail. You can hang your hat on uncertainties as a way of protecting all that you hold sacred. Be my guest.

A long term defensive coach, known for coaching up excellent linebackers, and the heir apparent to Joe Paterno is suddenly let go in 1999? I say known pedophile, you say Joe Paterno decided to go in a different direction and never the twain of us shall agree.

I don't consider it a hypothetical advantage and I bet lots and lots and lots of schools had a decent recruiting class. And trying to determine the true ranking of a recruiting class is silly because a lot of stars are assigned to players after schools decide whether or no to recruit them.

That's one player. Your quarterback is dumb.

I fail to see how Penn State not making recruits aware of the pedophile who was given access to Penn State facilities after he had been fired did not give them an unfair recruiting advantage over schools that had no known pedophile on their staff and had no known pedophile with access to their facilities that he was…

I read this right after eating poutine. Mistakes were made.

My favorite part is the mic drop act after every dumb argument he makes.

If it helps you any, he's always been an enormous asshole. And one who looks like Dick Cheney.

We got to see Curt himself make $75 million in Rhode Island tax payer dollars evolve into $0 in only a few years. No wonder he wants to disprove it.

Can someone please explain to me how creationists claim there are no fossils to prove evolution? Either I'm totally missing something, or these fucking people have never opened a book in their life (except for one, obviously).

Chemo is a helluva drug?
