These machines are marvels of modern technology. Maybe some people should just drop their anti-military rhetoric for a day or two and enjoy a little bit of advanced technology. Then, after the celebration you can go back to hating on the military and talking about how much carbon these jets put into the atmosphere thus contributing to our ultimate demise.

And even then, I'd rather attend and pay attention that be goofing off on my laptop/crackberry whatever to read what people are saying about what's currently happening... 1.
