Poll inspired by this cheerful story in the Washington Post: "Air Force sidelines 17 nuclear missile officers; commander cites ‘rot’ in system"

WASHINGTON — Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel demanded more information Wednesday after the Air Force removed 17 launch officers from duty at a nuclear missile base in North Dakota over what a commander called “rot” in the force. The Air Force struggled to explain, acknowledging concern about an “attitude problem” but telling Congress the weapons were secure.

Hagel reacted strongly after The Associated Press reported the unprecedented sidelining of the officers at Minot Air Force Base, N.D., where one of their commanders complained of “such rot” that even the willful violation of safety rules — including a possible compromise of launch codes — was tolerated.

The AP quoted from an internal email written by Lt. Col. Jay Folds, deputy commander of the 91st Operations Group, which is responsible for all Minuteman 3 missile launch crews at Minot. He lamented the remarkably poor reviews they received in a March inspection. Their missile launch skills were rated “marginal,” which the Air Force told the AP was the equivalent of a “D’’ grade.

“We are, in fact, in a crisis right now,” Folds wrote in the email to his subordinates.

isn't there supposed to be a flux capacitor screencap to go with that post

I was recently surprised when a boss felt the need to footnote explain "DEFCON" in a brief that made reference to it. I was like "Hello, Wargames?!" But then I realized that's not, like, a standard reference point for everyone.

love the results on this. i watched the clip a minute ago and "Falken's Maze" jumped out at me as something I would totally want to play.
