We're also probably never going to have a sail powered ship-of-the-line again either :P

If GI Joe has taught me anything, it's that in the event of a persistent electromagnetic pulse effect we can quickly rig up sail-powered aircraft carriers.  O0

The phrase 'nuclear powered battle cruiser' tickles my steampunk funny bone.

It's closer to a battleship than we're ever likely to have again.   :tickedoff:

We're also probably never going to have a sail powered ship-of-the-line again either :P

I don't know, a nuclear powered BB with 3-4 rail guns, a very large stock of missiles, laser point defense systems, and well armored doesn't seem all of that bad of an idea.

You might want to Google Arsenal Ship.
Jarhead - Yeah. You're probably right.

Gus - I use sweatpants with flannel shorts to soak up my crotch sweat.

Banzai Cat - There is no "partial credit" in grammar. Like anal sex. It's either in, or it's not.

Mirth - We learned long ago that they key isn't to outrun Star, it's to outrun Gus.

Martok - I don't know if it's possible to have an "anti-boner"...but I now have one.

Gus - Celery is vile and has no reason to exist. Like underwear on Star.

I know, just doesn't have the ring of Battleship though.  Arsenal ship sounds more like munitions supply ship.

The converted Ohio class SSGNs serve the purpose nicely.

That last one reminds me of an old girlfriend. She made the same kind of wake in the water when we went to the beach. And she smoked.  :-*

Good article with some equally good points. I think the idea that Muslims in general all secretly desire Western Style Democracy and are just waiting to be liberated from their Islamo-Facist bondage or local Dictators has been greatly over sold, especially in Liberal circles. Some surely do, but I think most, or at least the most vocal, do not and see OUR system of government as chaotic and degenerate. Try telling them they'll be much better-off when their children can all use the same bathroom or dressing rooms and their Imams must marry persons of the same sex and see how quickly they line-up for 'Western Values'. My 2 cents.
