What is wrong with having a look round inside United States military computers? If they can't keep casual visitors out they should be ashamed of themselves, not trying to drag an innocent Scotsman off to the US for lese majeste.
We're not supposed to think what is not permitted, we're not supposed to look at what is just lying there, we're not supposed to criticise, we're not supposed to make regimes look silly.
They need to pull their heads in.

Buggeranti ? Are you sure that isn't word verification E? ND and Nomad have suggested Angels have a direct line to wv.
Nope. It's a good one, isn't it? Origins unknown. Also - of my Uncle Jack - "He was a right little buggeranti".
