It Has to be True

Art Buchwald once wrote in his daily column about a new plane that was developed to race along at 2-3 times the speed of sound.  Buchwald commented that he would imagine a new plane that would fly so slow that any shot fired against it would have to miss!  The following morning he was called by Intelligence and told off for giving away classified information.

What you imagine may not be so far removed from reality.

Of course, now in the 21 st century we must ask: are we better or worse for it?
