Unbelievable! This sounds JUST LIKE something Baghdad Bob would say! He never let a few "facts" get in the way of his anouncements either:

“We have placed them in a quagmire from which they can never emerge except dead”

"We're giving them a real lesson today. Heavy doesn't accurately describe the level of casualties we have inflicted."

Jim,

You, like some others, are trying to set the terms of the debate which I never allow anyone to do under any circumstances.(:--))) > Whether SAS/AF is available is not part of this discussion although I can imagine circumstances where everyone might eventually have access to SAS/AF because of the nature of this ongoing spirited discussion. We need to have much more of it and raise the temperature just a tad. We need to smoke out the Luddites (macro mavens) and engage them by showing examples that anyone, not just the Jack Hamiltons of the world, can clearly see as superior to the examples offered by the Luddites..
