Great news. Thanks for giving up your own time to do this. Definitely appreciated. I have the thread on my "watch list" and will be looking forward to updates. Best of luck.

I understand the frustration. Could have saved you some trouble. One of those things, though, where you can't be sure it's covered till you run it down yourself. I'll sleep better between now and November knowing guys like you are covering all the bases. My hat's off to you.

if not SBVFT, maybe you should try to check with them first before revealing any info that might damage their strategy. if the info is that explosive they probably have a plan to use it at just the right time, and you might inadvertently blow that plan. of course since I am dying of curiousity, you can just tell ME

does anyone agree or am I just nuts?

You're nuts...I was in line first.

In fact I was in line on Christmas eve in 1968 when Richard Millhouse Nixon was president and I was in Cambodia. And M.L.K. had just been shot. And I was still picking rice outta my behind, and all those memories are seared seared into my memory.

Like I said ...you're nuts and I was in line first.

During the Iraq war I saw something in news coverage that was in my opinion of significant danger to our troops and might go unreported.

(It doesn't matter whether you believe me or not, or whether it was a real danger or not, but I believed it was.)

I couldn't put it down even though I sent it through some indirect channels I have.

Finally, I looked up a number and called Doha, Qatar Central Command (you can find ANYTHING on the web if you know how to look) -- got an officer (Air Force) on the line; told him my story.

He seemed to get it but maybe he was just humoring me.

Then I asked, "Sir, you are an officer in the United States Air Force and you did understand my report, sir?"

Answer: "Yes I understood it."

Finally: "Sir, will you get the report to someone who can evaluate and get it to those who need the information?"

Answer: "Yes I will".

Finally: "Thank you sir."

After that, I would have still been very sad if someone had died unnecessarily but I had done at least my DUTY.

If the admins comb the forum here and pass what they consider to be good ideas up the chain, that's good enough for me. I was wondering myself if we were all doing a lot of thinking in vain here. I sure hope not. There is a lot of capability here, and some good tactical/strategic minds at work, let's use the resources, as much as possible.

I always wondered what Santa Claus would look like in October ....... looks like we are going to be able to find out
