[MilCom] KBKF: 30 JUN 2005

Thanks for the link to the video streamed news report. Great video. 

Ironically, when I pulled up the streamed video, it was sponsored by 
"Brakes Plus", an automobile brake shop, where the corporate motto is, 
written beside a large red Stop traffic sign, "It doesn't say 'Stop, sort 
of'". I kid you not.
