#1 Emergency Restraint Chair, Tom Hogan, said his small Iowa company shipped five $1,150 chairs to Guantánamo on Dec. 5 and 20 additional chairs on Jan. 10

Be happy to make 100 chairs out of form lumber, I'll even throw in a pneumatic framing nailer and a couple cases of #16.

bid: cost only, gov supply air-fare and air-freight.

#2 2 large pieces heavily varnished 3/4" plywood, shaped like paramedic's backboards and clamped together with nylon webbing (with the "patient" in between the sheets) would work if you didn't want to invest in needlessly expensive hardware. Call a Gitmo sandwich.

#3 The US won't allow the prisoners to starve themselves to death, but will allow them to defecate on themselves. Fair enough.

#6 Save the sharks: the waters around Gauntanamo hhave become depleted of food due to pollution and global warming caused by Boooosh and Haliburton. Sharks are starving and rare species are endangered. We must feed them.

#7 It sounds like these chairs could be commercial. Do they go with Shaker or Nordic?

#10 Someone needs to smack these "lawyers" in the head with a clue-by-four. These people are unlawful combattants(terrorists), not uniformed, disciplined soldiers. They are less than common criminals. They deserve NOTHING. Shooting them on sight is acceptable behavior under the Geneva Convention. We could legally take them all out and hang them tomorrow. Throw the lawyers out, shoot the judges that demand they receive "fair" treatment, and start acting like we're in the middle of a war, not a jaywalking incident.
