    The point I was making, is that pure empiricism, experimentation is a goat bzadeh, as you so eloquently put it. One uses the works of academics, whether you realise it or not, its in every library, every piece of algorithms, in your text books, in the words you use. My guess you never actually looked at the research literature on networking - but make yourself a favor. And give the credit where the credit is due.

    Mmm.. Of cause that's an old discussion between scientists and engineers, on what is really important, theoretical prediction and analysis, or a working implementation. Being both a scientist and an engineer, I would dare to say: both is very much needed, and whoever came up with the idea should be given proper credit.

    When you do your most basic "hacking together", you stand on the shoulders of many very much academicians, even if do not realise it fully. Nothing works just by "brute force" - you use multitude of concepts, from basic like search or hashing or graphs, to advanced once, such as queuing theory and network analysis, carefully designed, analysed and implemented, and only then you add your "observing what worked". Do not dismiss theory, it is jsut as important as implementation..

    If it was a bigger chance of making money for an election contributor - there would have been more troops. Quit blindly following rhetoriticians and use some critical thinking. They were NOT for humanitarian aid - if they were, they would have been there before SIAD BARRE was thrown out - he was a monster, who created all the famine, but nobody cared, since he was happily throwing any concessions on U.S. companies they wanted. Once he was removed, they tried to move ini, but finally calculated it is not worth it.. That's a fact - not that it is anything wrong with, IMO.

    You choose one point, that I said "US Special Forces" instead of "Army Special Forces" and attempt to malign everything else.

    Nope. It was you, who chose a very common terminology misalignment, between common and exact military term, to demonstrate what you perceived as author incompetense. Which I highlighted as a dubious argument, which it is.

    But, I'm done arguing with you. I am relieved. :) Now you can do some more reading, and clear up your view of the world. Good start of the new day..

    Or man.. Go to the google.com and search for "Special Forces".

    U.S. Special forces is a common, widely used term describing parts of JSOC. It is not the same as using Army Special Forces, it is not an error, and nitpicking this is stupid and rudiculous.

    It is the same as I would dismiss for using common words like depression, or force, or solution, not in their exact psychology, physics, or chemistry meaning.

    My point was correct, you missed it completely, and you guys are all funny.

    U.S. Army Special forces is a military term, that indeed refers to "Green Berets". OTOH U.S. Special forces, is a common and a widely used term referring to JSOC parts. So the original author was absolutely correct using a phrase about members of "special forces" dying. To nitpick and call it "factual error" and base you counter "arguments" based on this is indeed silly.

    Although the Rangers might be classed as Special Operations soldiers, the two groups are NOT synonymous or interchangeable.

    Sure, set and a subset are not synonymous or interchangeble. So?

    Most of it is heresay, speculation, and non-sense.

    Yeah, sure, and you are actually providing true facts. Where? Where?

    Umm.. Check it? There are plenty of references around - and references given do look rather credible.

    Credibility has something to do with beliefs. This has nothing to do with you believing it or not - it is just a statement of facts: the way it actually happened. It may be erroneous in the end - but it is not a matter of believe, but of verifying them, hense credibility is not that important. You may not like him - but you can not dismiss facts based on that..
