YZ, I am being Yahoo Serious. <g> I do think political boys love their toys. You should see how many pols show up when they have jet fighter tests. I attended one in Europe in the early 70s when they were selecting the next generation of fighters for NATO. The place was packed with pols smiling and saying "golly gee." However, the Swedish plane came in much, much better than expected and we had to show our true colors by forcing NATO to take our lesser, though higher priced, jets from McDonnel-Douglas.
