Exclamation Air Force Considers Secret Gay Sex Weapon

You gotta love the Freedom of Information Act.

In 1994, the Air Force was considering a plan to develop a new kind of chemical weapon - one that would render the enemy uncontrollably horny...and GAY.

Even if this stuff never makes it into combat, it will surely provide the premise for a long series of pornographic movies. ("Is that a weapon of mass destruction, or are you just happy to see me?")

The Actual document looks...

Poorly Poorly Made.

It has no seal, no offical signature.

I 'traced' it back.

Supposedly comes From Write-Patterson AirForceBase (OH) Building 255, but again, there is no such building...

*shrug* this doesn't make much sense it is a real document...

And they also mentioned they didn't actually have the chemical - just that they considered it a possibility for development.

And who would they test it on?!?!

The military and Intelligence community have been looking at stuff like this for years. Witness Operation Mongoose - the plan to overtrow Castro. One of the ideas was to use thalium salts as a depilatory, causing his beard and hair to come off. The idea being that he would be so humiliated at losing his machismo he would resign, or be overthrown. And they get paid to come up with stuff like this

That was great!

It would certainly be an interesting place if all of the undeveloped weapons actually did exist. That didn't seem real to me, the document, but it was good for a laugh.

No, it's correct. Altitude refers to the height, and attitude refers to its angle of attack, and trajectory.

Nope - it's correct. Attitude also means "position of aircraft or spacecraft relative to a frame of reference (the horizon or direction of motion)".

Now I've embarrassed myself by making it obvious I've read this thread....

What? You mean that you can't tell by reading the title and the first post that this is an educational thread?
