I didn't say it was _impossible_.  I could,
conceivably, step in at the plate Sunday afternooon. 
I'll have to have my agent call Theo Epstein...it
would sure pay better than graduate school.  Everyone
watch the game to find out!  Bob might even root for
me.  Those are just the odds I would ascribe to the
possibility.  The report on more advanced ATGMs was
not true, btw - somebody screwed up their initial IDs.
 The improved RPG rounds I haven't heard one way or
the other.  You tell me, Damon.  If you had lost men
in a battle at Baghdad and it was covered up, how
would you react to it?  Bill Troy at III Corps is an
old friend of mine - I can just imagine how _he'd_
react if someone told him to do something like this.
