Thanks X,

For the book Rec. I need a good distraction after today..
Btw we really enjoyed "Sam I Am" and "The Royal Tennenbaums". The latter so funny and dysfunctional and the former so sweet. And how pure love makes up for Intelligence.. And speaking of "intelligence".

One thing on Powell's presentation bothered me.

He shows an aerial photo of a large amount of stripped off soil around a suspected WMD manufacturing facility.

Where are the photos of the earth moving equipment doing it?. Where are the photos of the trucks hauling it away? and the dump site. With satellite and other aerial imagery flights continually watching these sites, they should be there. I don't know the size of the area, but it looked somewhat large. It couldn't have been done overnight IMO Because a significant thickness of overburden would have to be stripped away to remove all traces of a chemical residue..

Modern chemical and geochemical trace analysis is so sensitive now days (my exploration expertise. <g>), many feet of material would have to be removed imo.... The weapon inspectors should be on a helicopter now, or already there to check this out.. And take a look, and then find THAT disposal site which also should leave a Large footprint.. I know a little about reclamation too.. <g>

Anyway that's just one comment..
