Geez this is so rich where to begin...

Well, those guys at Berkley may want to investigate further. Specifically, have any terrorists already used the "gay bomb" on US soil? San Fransisco???

Also, I find it ironic that in 1994 when Clinton initiated the "don't ask don't tell" policy OUR military (you know the ones who didn't want gays) was investigating a weapon to turn people gay.

Also, you've got to love the "who me" bomb although I and my friends invented that one over 20 years ago when we would go out drinking. We called it SBD (silent but deadly) and I have one friend, who shall remain nameless, who could have taken out an entire division!!! BUT I think the article was right in that the "who me" bomb would be ineffective against many enemies who don't mind the smell of farts. I mean have you ever smelled a frenchman in summer???

Finally, what is not funny is the fact that our gov't spent $7.5 MILLION "investigating" these obviously stupid ideas.

are they sure they didn't pull this stuff off of geek.com or something? sounds like a bunch of kids sitting around thinking this stuff up.

It would have been cheaper to have gotten advice from a group of children or visited geek.com but the gov't doesn't work cheap.

I heard about that shit on the radio yesterday. That is the most ludicrous thing I've heard in a while. It must be nice to rake up 7 million dollars in a pile and light it on fire.

Well you know Putz it is the gov't.

I mean this is the same gov't who back during the first orbital flights discovered that ball point pens won't work in zero gravity. Their solution: spend something like $70,000,000 developing a ball point pen that would. The russians USED A PENCIL!!!!

Now instead of firing a guy (General Pace, world record holder for shortest chairman of the joint chief's nominee in history)
for SAYING he thought homosexuality was wrong (his statement cost ZERO tax dollars)WHY don't we FIRE everyone involved in SPENDING $7,500,000 on a "gay bomb" that even a school child could tell you would never work?? I mean hell if I was gay this would be FAR MORE OFFENSIVE (the underlying rationale being that gays are too horny to fight) than Pace's comments.
