You've got that right Grampa! I do hope that the troops returning from Iraq now in the rotation get a chance to tell us their side of what it is really like over there.

I think the same is true in the Afghan/Pakistan border area as well. Once in a while a tid bit of information floats to the surface, but you have to be watching for it, and observant. I bet most people know more about how many wisdom teeth GWB had pulled by some dentist in Alabama thirty years ago than they know about how many nuclear weapons have just in the last week or so been secured in Pakistan.

If you watch the AP posts, you will see them making multiple revisions during the course of a day for fairly significant events. I don't know if that is the editors doing that without the knowledge of the reporter or just how it is done. But it could be someone in the military ranks that ask them to pull some detail or other .
