I got the chance to shut up one of their arrogant IT guys once. Interfacing USAF TBMCS to the CIA system during a version upgrade, there was an error. Their guy kept insisting it HAD to be on our side. I finally broke out Wireshark and showed him in big red letters that the error was on their side. With witnesses. It was priceless. :)

Good on you, TChris. The federal government is filled with fat, low-IQ, potato chip-munching, morons. I always tell the various comicbook readers here on FR who believe that the federal bureaucracy is filled with 10-foot-tall Rambos to take a tour of any federal bureaucratic office.
Then come back and tell me how willing you would be, as a general, to take these fat slobs onto a battlefield.
