So it sounds as though you think a "military man" is needed. Well, hate to ruin in the party and point out that huge frickin' pachyderm that;s sittin' here in the middle of the living room, but ... THAT TO A LARGE DEGREE IS HOW WE GOT INTO THE SITUATION WE ARE CURRENTLY IN I contend...

"I understand propagation and radio, I also know how it works and what the predictions for band opening are and where. " Good, then you understand that certain freqs only "land" in certain places. Collection of those signals HAVE to be done in those places. There is NO other way. Greg...

"Don't know but if it is intel, that can be worked out some other way. The CIA seems to be doing a good job operating where we have no massive amount of troops so I guess it is how we approach the issue and what we have to gain by it that will matter." Greg, CIA does not do that "kind" of...

Ideas and concepts have to be based on reality, not '60's slogans and fluff. I trust no one who has no real life experience. NO ONE!

Don't like Hugo, never have. Don't like "sayings" or "slogans". All talk. When push comes to shove, if these cutbacks and draw downs are done wrong, MILLIONS will die. Experience is the key. I have yet to see it in anyone you post about.

I don't watch "productions". I want cold, hard, unemotional FACTS. FACTS base on real life experience.

And his MILITARY experience is? I have little doubt he is serious. I have little doubt he has a functioning brain. I was not concerned about his party. I have NO idea if he as any idea about how to PROPERLY cut military/defense spending. Numbers guys scare me. They seldom have any practical...

You are correct.

I don't know David Walker's work. I would have to see "SPECIFICS" I personally don't buy that number. There are going to be costs that many cannot foresee. There are going to be "holes" that need filled that might not be able to be filled. Just because he is on TV means NOTHING. Oprah is on TV...

We will end up back in Iraq. We will end up back in Afghanistan too. I won't argue whether we should have went in at all or not, We will never agree anyway. We SHOULD have finished the job once we decided to go in. Are you pulling out 100% of troops in Korea and Japan? Do you know what all...

We have been told on multiple occasions that they do NOT give out the routing until the load is on the truck. We asked our CC about that and was given the same answer. We were told that was "policy". This one load was the FIRST time we had routing prior to arriving at the shipper. I have NO...

Mine has almost 8000 hours on it. I just got the water pump replaced but now I have a small oil leak. I hate to see what that is going to cost to replace all those seals. I would REALLY like to find a way to replace it. Darn things are just so expensive. TOO expensive if you as me. I can buy...

I think that your estimates on cuts in military and defense are out of line. It costs far more to play "pure defense" than you may think it does. 25% would be a far more workable number.

I know who's problem it is. All I was saying is that it is not our troops stopping it. I doubt if anyone in this forum is qualified to determine what benefit we are or are not getting to our defense from our troops there.

I just thought it might cost more than that. Mine has none. I just hate to put ANY money into it. I might look into that. It would eliminate some of the problems I deal with.

The 1 1/2 was a "trash line" on our "brush truck". We would pull that line on auto wrecks when we had no fire, just as a precaution. We used bigger lines for interior attack.

Adding a radiator to my APU would likely be expensive, would it not? Might be cheaper to build a system like yours only if and when I buy a new one.

Let's see, North Korea is almost devoid of electricity. They have almost no food. Failing infrastructure. The difference in wage structure is beyond belief. It would take a decade or two to totally reunite those two countries. How much? Who knows? It would likely strain South Korea and slow...

Yeah, I am a geezer, just means that I am still alive. I looked at the website, no SPECIFICS!! Just as there were none last time I was there 6 months ago. Telling me your going to cut defense spending without saying EXACTLY how you intend to do it tells me NOTHING. What units are...

I don't understand. Are you talking about adding a cooling system for the APU? :confused:
