$14K to find out what a bunch of comic books geeks in their parents' basements could tell you for free? Proof again that you can pay for anything in the name of defence procurement!

When I was in basic training, some black guys got into an argument about whether or not Superman could whip the Incredible Hulk. They decided to consult me, hoping that I could give them some insight into this seemingly vexing question. “Lonesome, you smart, who would win a fight between Superman and the Hulk?”

Foolishly, I rose to the bait, “Superman and the Incredible Hulk are fictional characters, and are imbued with whatever characteristics and attributes their creators care to give them. There is no answer to such a question.”

“Man, if you don’t know the answer, just say so.”

Sounds like they've got whackjob politicians/bureaucrats in The Great White North too.

Canada would have been better served to have spent that pittance (it ain't much) to buy extra ammo.

I don't think they take anything seriously.

But then again, uh...we manage to waste a ton of money, too.

I don't think any Western Democracies take the dangers of the world seriously.
