What battleships do we have now, I am speaking of a long term project here - Project Neil, designing North America's next Battleship.
I have come to believe that the whole world is an enigma, a harmless enigma that is made terrible by our own mad attempt to interpret it as though it had an underlying truth.

Knowing our luck, he'd subcontract to the Timmeh Corporation, and after 6 months of service, they'd need a congressional review on the inadvisability of using railguns in congested marine traffic. :P

I thought it was just because the Yamato class were the only Battleship with 18 inch guns.

I know the series is old, but you just don't seem like the kind of guy who would have watched anime, even when he was a kid.

Star Blazers was shown on regular network television in the early 80s; and it was before anyone realized how weird Japanese cartoons could be.
In Italy, for thirty years under the Borgias, they had warfare, terror, murder and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland, they had brotherly love, they had five hundred years of democracy and peace—and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock

Oh No! They're making a run for it on land!

Wait! Good thing there's a well-placed canal!
There's always a canal, or a fjord, or an estuary!

Here's what our "nation of cowards" attorney general had to say:

QuoteIn reference to whether the pirates may face criminal charges in the United States, the attorney general said, "it is a little early tell, at this point. There has not been an act of piracy I think against a United States vessel in hundreds of years. So ah...I'm not sure exactly what would happen."

And 'Crazy Joe' Biden:

QuoteWe're not going to settle that here. I think what you should do is contact Jim Jones and the White House," he said referring journalists to the national security advisor.
"If you can play a guitar and harmonica at the same time, like Bob Dylan or Neil Young, you're a genius. But make that extra bit of effort and strap some cymbals to your knees, suddenly people want to get the hell away from you."  --Rich Hall

Furious was a battle cruiser armed with 18" guns, and the British had two monitors with 18" guns taken from the Furious.
