Pentagon builds its own Internet
"This 'Internet in the sky' would allow 'marines in a Humvee, in a faraway land, in the middle of a rainstorm, to open up their laptops, request imagery' from a spy satellite, and 'get it downloaded within seconds.'" "Pentagon traditionalists, however, ask if net-centric warfare is nothing more than an expensive fad."

Again? Jeez, they need to build one internet and stick with it.

Rumors of the internets!

But will they be able to get that same download rate on Mars?

I heard the soldiers will get Aeron chairs and free massages in their foxholes. It'd be well worth it if both sides would agree to fight only with Nerf bats.
-
And nobody has thought of Skynet yet?
-
Soldier A: We've got our orders, let's move out. Soldier B: STFU F@G! 1'm p|4y1n6 c0un73r-57r1k3! I foresee problems as well.

I foresee problems as well. Broken spell-checkers?
