America To The Rescue (again)
Two good op-ed pieces (OK, I admit it's subjective) about the ongoing tsunami relief effort and the attending "buzz"
http://www.townhall.com/columnists/m...20050105.shtml http://www.anncoulter.org/ I read these two weekly - they often crack me up

Re: America To The Rescue (again)
Someday I'll regale you with tales from the CVN-65 Enterprise. You will be impressed.
Carriers are the most efficient ships in the fleet and excellent business models. 90 aircraft a day is only a fraction of what they can deliver in combat. As I remember it, it was a launch about every 14 seconds. |

Re: America To The Rescue (again)
I think the "90 aircraft" might refer more to what they have in their quiver than it does the # of daily sorties they can support - just guessing.
