They are using a "thermobaric bomb" - it's really an FAE, like assualt said. Â The model is BLU-118/B and it was made specifically for afghanistan, so technically, it's a new bomb. ** EDIT: Corrected model #

http://www.cnn.com/2002/WORLD/europe/02/18/britain.marines/index.html GIBRALTAR -- British troops temporarily invaded Spain when a landing exercise on Gibraltar went wrong. About 20 Royal Marines landed in bad weather on a Spanish beach, thinking they were on British territory. They hastily retreated after locals told them of their error. Gibraltar has been a contested area between London and Madrid for 300 years. The two European Union and NATO allies -- once the greatest of foes -- are negotiating a deal to resolve their tussle over Gibraltar, which British marines seized from Spain in 1704. Spain's foreign ministry played down the incident as a harmless error that would not undermine negotiations aimed at resolving the Gibraltar issue. "We are not going to protest. From our point of view the matter is closed," a Foreign Ministry spokesman said. A British Ministry of Defence spokesman told Reuters that two landing craft from HMS Ocean accidentally entered Spanish territorial waters and in bad weather one landing craft landed on the beach a few yards over the Spanish side of the border. He added that it was the first time he had heard of such an error taking place during one of the frequent landing exercises. "Clearly that is the end of the matter but obviously it is a situation we would rather not have taken place." The two countries hope to reach a deal on the colony's future in the next few months but many of the 30,000 inhabitants of "The Rock," as the peninsula is known, say they will not accept any move towards Spanish sovereignty.

And in case you didn't get it, both of the posts you quoted were supposed to make you realize how silly it is to have two gold medalists. And what about the silver? Will Canada have BOTH the silver and the gold?

So, monkey, if you disagree with my opinion, just say you don't and you also have the option to point out why you disagree. Why would have to say "STFU jaxx" because you don't agree? DO you realize how boring a world this would be if we all agreed?

Good man. Too bad wobble is banned, but I'm glad the rules are applied evenly.

He's my hero. He ought to be yours too. If you know what's good for you!

I think all-y'all-r-nuts.

Yo, damage, his sig takes up about as much space as yours does.

LOL - so should I, I guess. Maybe they removed his posting rights? Or can we conclude that the moderators make up these rules and don't enforce them evenly?

I still say the chinese should now have a silver and the russians should also have a bronze (they are also fourth). Hey! Wait a minute! Most everyone skated nicely. WHy not give them all gold! And the speedskating times are soooo close. They should all get gold. ...blah blah blah

Oops, sorry bout that - didn't know it was mentioned before. Thanks.

Where did you see him? And why isn't he posting in here?
