ribka: It is sort of amusing to stir sycophant Steve up a little but I can promise he is not going to entertain any idea not approved by the masters in Ottawa and Washington D.C. He has spent a career in the Canadian Army and all he knows is "yes sir". Doesn't matter how stupid or ill thought out the order is. If he had been on a horse during the charge of the light brigade he would have ridden right into those Russian cannon. That's not courage or loyalty, it's stupidity and to be an educated man he is stupid.
