So they got something that ain't broke and they're gonna fix it.

I'd worry they could make the odds more like 1 in 2.5. Sounds like a
dangerous experiment - oh no our foreign partners meant feet/sec!!! Saturday
Night Live could have a field day with this. Might be better to invest in a
cure for an imaginary plague that isn't going to happen, or feeding the
starving population of a country that doesn't exist.


The Russians plan to move it so it impacts the United States...Nuke em
now!
