Along with this, the Navy is testing EMALS, or Electromagnetic Aircraft Launch System.  It performed its first all-up test launch on Dec. 18 at Lakehurst, NJ.
EMALS is going to replace standard steam catapults on the next generation aircraft carrier USS Gerald R. Ford.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.

It is much more powerful to seek Truth for one's self.  Seeing and hearing that others seem to have found it can be a motivation.  With me, I was drawn because of much error and bad judgment on my part. Confronting one's own errors and bad judgment is a very life altering situation.  Confronting the errors and bad judgment of others is usually hypocrisy.
