As part of its LOGCAP III contract, Halliburton/KBR provides support services to our troops operating on or near the front lines overseas. I should know; I worked on the team that submitted Halliburton's bid.
Among those services: providing MWR - Morale, Welfare, and Recreation - facilities, including satellite TV connections to programming back home, and high-speed Internet access.
How long until Halliburton/KBR - acting on the orders of the Bush/Cheney Chain Gang - block access to SciFi programming on TV and online, under the pretext that it is demoralizing the troops?

Buy at least 1 share of HAL - yes, that's right, of Halliburton - which gives you an ownership stake and an owner's voice.
So say we all!

P.S. To date myself: in the days before my family acquired a VCR, Sunday night church services were a race against the clock. If the pastor of my Pentecostal church finished by 7:55, I could race home and catch the opening theme song of the original Battlestar just in the nick of time. But when "the Spirit moved him," I'd fume when I'd come in part of the way into the episode. Thank you, TiVo!
