P.T. Burnem is a play on P.T. Barnum, he of the famous "Nobody ever went broke underestimating the intelligence of the American public" and "There's a sucker born every minute"--right? Tell me I've got it, and your post was just pulling our legs? Please tell me that, oh god please tell me that. Just in case . . . With Bernie's satellites you make a phone call, send an internet message, maybe a fax, or tune in a Clint Eastwood movie. To do that, you put some birds up in the air, yes with rockets, and they run around in little circles, okay big circles, some 800 miles up, some 23,000 miles up. Dropping nasty little thermonuclear devices on Washington, DC, et.al., is kinda different, doncha think? Me not having degrees in rocket science, guess I could be missing something but rather doubt it. Really cute PT--almost had us. Gotcha! Mike Doyle |
