I still think it is easier to DIY.. I'd like to see the US MIC start buying off Canadian Crowns for outdated techs at 10x the startup value so they can force forward momentum in the technology. I personally think Canada should be able to service its equipment without relying on other countries...

That is around 1 week after the Georgians started blocking humanitarian aid from Russia to S.O. Also the reports say it wasn't " by the government" - Russia has a rather large hacking scene. Although I'm a little surpised that the GE wasn't able to defend itself against these attacks by...

I just felt like adding a little bit of humour --- did you know Stalin was Georgian? Sort of ironic you would use the term stalanist to decribe Russian Thugs attacking Georgia. Although I tend to see this conflict oddly, Russia has done nothing Georgia has not done - although I don't get the...

Coulnd't you like engineer it to work with the unit attachments you would have bought? Also isn't it all Canadian Money anyway? What does the unit cost matter if 50% of that goes back to the government as taxes and the rest stays in the Canadian Economy?

Oddly I disagree with that assertation- although I may not understand the scope of the NSA and CIA operations outside the US verses the FBI and NSA (homeland security) within the US. I always thought they were far more liberated on the outside of the US even with the domestic tapping laws...

One thing I find sorta funny is that - this area is where Russia proposed the alternative early warning sites, rather than the Ukraine. Georgia won't recognize the independance of the areas - they are fighting against them - they are pro Russian - Georgia is trying to join NATO - once it does -...

They were too busy retreating to the capital russia said they had no intentions of advancing on. What would you do against over 500 russian tanks and 30,000 personnel? Although there have been small skirmishes.. total lethality is being reported against the Georgians.. due to Russian...

Yah, however Georgia has been fighting with that militia since 1991 and the territory has never de facto been Georgian territory - the areas were amalgamated into the Georgian S.S.R. back in the days of the USSR and arn't actually historically Georgian areas.  Georgia Seperated/declared...

not yet, no, any day though sir (joke)

Well if it ain't NATO's agenda -- -why would they launch an offensive which targetted Russian Civilians without assurances of support capable of defending a Russian Response? it just seems stupid to me

I think that is plausable - however I havn't seen any actual evidence - and Georgia responded by killing civilians.. not attacking military targets or attempting to defend their territory - they went on an offensive into a "status quo area" and attacked civillians that held russian citizenship...

They did but withdrew from the city proper. THere is no way of really knowing - however following the media facts and removing the rhetoric it seems that Russia has taken out key infrastructure and government ministries operation points. Essentially they are taking out their capacity to wage...

Odd that the Kurds - would be the ones to be the ones who hit Turkeys Pipeline? Arn't the Kurds ProWestern? Or did that all change when NATO gave Turkey a lisence to kill? I've been following the story since the first reports of escalation came out Thursday night - that is before the huge...

It should be noted that Russia was the first to offer a ceasefire and demand people go back to starting points and a return of the status quo - the UN Security Council and Georgia rejected Russia's initial offer, and added conditions to the cease fire. Also Georgia openly declared war on Russia...

The only way to deal wth ranges is to dig the entire thing out sift and then either build something in that big giant hole or backfill it. You could always do trench training there or something over a number of years - or use it as a garbage dump afterwars.. noone would ever get back to that...

A number of Canadian Companies - based in Quebec supply components for the JSF, 50+ companies although only 125million of close to 1/4 trillion $'s or between 0.0006%  and 0.001% profit share. Although I'm wondering about this can not modify software thing. It is situations like that that would...

I read and wrote on an article on usenet a number of years back. It was essentially just a matter of having a light absorbant material that could also reflect those colours around it - cloaking. Or in the case of invisibility take the signal then transmit the signal from one side, map the...

What is the thing that flies off the the left of the screen in the film? Debris? It looks like a white light. I take that back.. the first time I watched the video I thought I saw a small light speck take an upward almost horizontal movement from the plume, but havn't seen it on subsequent...
