One reason to hope the Cylons really are involved in Libya: the war might finally have a Plan.

Sadly, it has been reported that the JSTARS aircraft are not, repeat NOT, crewed by Six copies.

We used 'Daddy' for years until some dickweed at al Udied decided it was too racy to listen to the British female AWACS controllers say "Goodnight, Daddy!" We liked it. I guess you can get away with cylon. Damned PC policies.
