<But I'll be damned if I can see the wisdom in getting yet another conventional general (czar) to call the shots in an unconventional war. All these conventional GOs are cast from the same mold. They all go to the same schools, have similar career assignment patterns, and (I'm sure) similar brain electrical wave patterns. Most important to understand is they all germinate their ideas inside the same box.>
