kagraves (Kenneth A Graves):

"B-2, or not B-2: That is the question.
Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer
the slings and arrows of outrageous expense,
Or to take arms against a sea of deficits,
And by opposing end them. To cut; to spend;
No more; and by a cut to say we end
the heartache and a thousand cost overruns
That B-2 is heir to."
  --Rep. Edward Markey, D-MA, to the House of Representatives.

	So take a look at yourself,
