It was flying low. It almost seemed to stop flying and float at one time...Then it began firing. It was like the plane was breathing fire. It was horrible, horrible. I love it!

Oh yea...good one!
Rangers in force.
Nothing they have could even BEGIN to stand up to that!
They probably got the point.
If not, they will.

I have to believe that we have some very sophisticated methods for finding and/or detonating mines remotely. We still can't be using the old "crawl on your bell and carefully poke a knife in the dirt ahead of you" method. And if it is classified--don't tell me.

Re #57 I wonder this, too. I seem to be reading more and more Guardian U.K. articles in the past month or so. I think a lot of U.S. citizens would appreciate reading this story.

Excuse me, but I don't speak Brit. How long is a football pitch?
