Link Cleaning

In which I clear out old stories I've been meaning to blog about:

So wrong. But so funny.

US Military to spend on Star Trek-like energy weapons. Up next: Tranquility Base becomes the next century's Abu Ghraib. Seriously - one of the selling points is "Such a strike would be so precise that, as some designers put it at a recent conference here, the military could plausibly deny responsibility." If that doesn't chill your blood, I don't know what would.

China's nuclear arsenal is smaller than you think. So Angelica (see! I can get names right!) I think you have less to worry about over this crazy guy. Not that "smaller" nuclear forces necessarily makes one feel better. You only need a few, after all.

That's better.
