Now, lets hope that someone does not come up with a new anti-tripwire string that costs $100 a can and sell it to the military.

Ah, something else to add to my troop Christmas package. What a great idea!

I see a major congressional investigation looming-"Why aren't our troops being supplied with the proper equipment?"

What a slick use for the stuff. And, I suppose, if they hear a funny sound from inside the building, they can light the silly string and use the can as a flamethrower!

Wow, now that's really something. When I first read this, I figured it was a joke or something.

Front-line troops are more creative. We have learned a ton about urban warfare in this environment.
