WW2, were they build a 20 foot tall aircraft tire and
made sure the Japanese spies saw it. If the Japanese
actually took it as for real, they must have crapped
their pants. Sort of like the Soviets when I asked for

, rail guns or lasers that could fire over the
horizon. I'm jealous. I would pee my pants if I got to play with

were disbanded.
