END OF TRANSMISSION 12/18/02 .......... K
Point of information, and a peeve: USS is a title. No American-English speaker would say "The Dr. Chemist_Geek". USS is a title, like "Doctor," or most accurately, "Miss." Different, huh?
Thus endeth the naval grammar lesson...
Homeported in Norfolk, Virginia, USS Mount Whitney (LCC/JCC-20) was constructed by the Newport News Shipbuilding and Drydock Company and is named for the 14,946-foot peak in the Sierra-Nevada range in California, the highest point in the lower continental United States.
It is the first ship in the U.S. Navy to bear this name. Mount Whitney serves as the Flagship for Commander Second Fleet/Commander Striking Fleet Atlantic and has a complement of 600 enlisted personnel and officers. Mount Whitney was the first U.S. Navy combatant to permanently accommodate women on board. As the most sophisticated Command, Control, Communications, Computer, and Intelligence (C4I) ship ever commissioned, Mount Whitney incorporates various elements of the most advanced C4I equipment and gives the embarked Joint Task Force Commander the capability to effectively command all units under the command of the Commander, Joint Task Force.
You are correct, Sir, but what do you expect from Reuters?
BTW I'm a chemist_geek too!
Beeyooteefull rainbows, which will appear after the rain of fire on Saddam's theme park, Camelanusland.
Forced labor for terrorists--what a concept! I just thought, hey, heads in jars.
This power comes out of goodness: the people here are perfecting lasers that hit artillery shells--then go home to hug their families.
Thank you for your daily rainbows.
From Reuters, something like, "Evil white male oppressor aboard capitalist running pig-dog garbage scow USS Mount Whitney practices intimidation. Women and children hardest hit."
BTW I'm a chemist_geek too!
Cool! I'm doing fuel cell catalyst development. Are you in the field, and if so, what are you doing?
And if the cloud bursts, thunder in your ear,
You shout and no one seems to hear.
And if the band you're in starts playing different tunes,
I'll see you on the dark side of the moon.
