Why I don't take a local newspaper


What potential nuclear disarmament breakthrough with North Korea?

Still, I'm captivated by the idea of deploying these smooth and gentle mammals of the deep in modern battlefield and forward-support roles and high-risk theater operations (I just made that jargon up, by the way . . . not bad, eh?). And how might the great "war room" scene from Dr. Strangelove play out differently in an oceanic remake set in the not too distant future . . .
Turgidson: Mr. President, if I may advise, under condition red it is standard procedure that the base be sealed off, and the base be defended by base security sea lions. Any force trying to enter there would certainly encounter very heavy casualties.

Faceman: Admiral Turgidson, with all due respect for your defense team, my dolphins can brush 'em aside without too much trouble.
