...לב–נשבר ונדכה ––אל קים, לא תבזה.
Psalms 51:19 The sacrifices of G-d are a broken spirit;
a broken and a contrite heart, O G-d, Thou wilt not despise.

Although I don’t have much real by way of reliable comparisons, I think I attended a pretty decent science program in high school.

Like flying cars, robot maids and weekends on a lunar resort, teleportation is an essential part of science fiction. When I think of how many times I wished I could just teleport to the office or to a hotel hundreds of miles away without having to navigate through a maze of streets in a ton and a half of metal on four wheels, I lament the cruel laws of physics that won’t let teleportation be......

clean coal Post Source: www.whereistheoutrage.net Posted: Nov 19 2008 23:45:23
One catch phrase during the long election season was, of course, Clean Coal . Currently, when coal is burned to create energy, the coal gives off CO2 and sulfur. CO2 is a greenhouse gas…and sulfur isn’t good for the atmosphere either. So the question remains…how do we capture these compounds while still safeguarding the air that we breathe? A German company has a design, but i...... [Show More]

Wow, the BFT was not in place when I was in but we read articles about the work being done with Force 21 which I think was spearheaded by the 3rd ACR, 1st CAV Div, and 2nd Armored Div.
