Block was drummed out of the Defense Department on a charge of falsifying a $43 travel expense.

And well he should've been. Anyone in DoD who doesn't falsify or waste at least $1M needs to be removed. -g-

When in doubt, look for the Clinton appointee. No one is ever appointed without being thoroughly vetted for controllability. When two or more conspiracy theories seem to conflict, it simply implies a hidden conspiracy hidden deeper. -g-

Anyone who believes the government over almost any conspiracy theory is a government school graduate. -g-

Thanks for digging that up CobaltBlue! Kapton wiring is some scary stuff. It is just one of many reasons I hate the B-1B which is loaded with the stuff. We had to go through special Kapton wiring training and they show a video of what this stuff does if you so much as get a nick in it. It goes up like fireworks and spreads through the plane like a lit fuse. Why the heck they decided to build combat airplanes out of the stuff is beyond me even if it does save a little weight.

Good Find and Good Luck,

Lee
