    I will be waiting with baited breath, as
    I'm pretty sure I'm so far out of my league I will be quickly back to reading and learning from those posts.

    Did not mean to disregard Steve, his completion of the book, or his facts.

    He is always at the the forefront of commentary and deliberation in the defense sector and as such I'm sure the book in its entirety will contain many good items of discussion.

    Steve:

    Congrats

    Steve,

    I'll be among the first to buy when it comes out.

    So, what's the word on autographed copies?

    I'll probably do signings at every East Coast book store that will let me in the door. And ones that didn't lock their door carefully.

    Amazon sells autographed copies. I'll buy one through the link on this site if they're available.

    I enjoyed the opening but your writing style seems to have evolved. Based on this online quote, you apparently used to be much more concise.

    Metz and Kievit outline three basic goals:
    1. The United States government will control the planet.
    2. The military will control the government.
    3. Computer nerds will control the military.

    What I don't appreciate is that you guys have stolen my own personal role of dragging every thread I participate in downhill!
