A Public Service Announcement



I remember sitting in Mr. Pauley's 7th grade homeroom class in January of 91, watching CNN's footage of smart-bombs that were being guided down chimneys into targets. It was amazing to know that we could pinpoint military targets.

But what CNN conveniently forgot to tell us was that those smart-bombs had a 40% failure rate and that just two weeks into the war, we went back to WWII style "carpet-bombing."
