Awesome bit of kit
Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson -

I don't honestly think an island nation such as ours doesn't need a Navy, my last 2 clients have been the MoD & BAE who are obviously heavily involved in this, before that I spent 12 years at Westland helicopters so I think I know just a little bit about the defence industry.Science isn't about why, it's about why not.

It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
