#8 Managed Decline can become total chaos/anarchy very quickly given the near total dysfunction of this govt. The only thing still functioning in DC is the graft.

#9 The Public will have to wait a few days for the Paul Harvey version of this.

Unexpected outage after a patch was installed to allow elite private jets to fly "off the radar."

#14 Oh, ok. Ha, sort of Alex Jones light, but still worth watching.

#15 ^ I'm no fan of Jones, but I'm sure he wished he could have convinced the court he was snarking over Sandy Hook.

#18 Normally, I'd agree with you guys but since I worked in the FAA (computer systems) I know that the suits have nothing to do with the running of the NAS. Thank God. Blame a technician or engineer, we did all the work anyway. Set your sights on a real target.
Or STFU!
