How Much Will the Brass Waste on this Lemon?

Apparently Roomba the company that sells robotic vacuum cleaners has convinced some idiot at the Pentagon to make a robotic "sniper detector" device that will "spot the sniper's location before the smoke clears". Sheesh. As any Infantry private or NCO could tell you today's modern ammunition doesn't produce any smoke, or much flash either.

Whatever. Those dopes will no doubt spend a few billion on this turkey before they give it up and kill it. Here's an alternative thought Mr. Rumsfeld: cancel this pork barrel make work project and give the saved funds to the VA hospitals for the improved care of all the wounded soldiers and Marines. Just a thought.
