Blimps and computers are cheap compared to other stuff they spend on. Cheap when compared to an aircraft carrier. <g> Not so cheap when compared to any of the endless array of blimps floating over the US today. I recognize the stadium blimps are much smaller etc. I've had three different rides in the Goodyear blimp. it is like riding in a bus given the seating and the windows. Enjoyable! Just trying to make the point that NOTHING the pentagon buys is cheap. I agree that we should be out of Afghan. I've often wondered why we don't just burn the poppy crops each year and continue saying it is because of the Taliban's treatment of the Afghanny people. Burn the crops over and over and say it is because of the Taliban over and over. But, I dream.
