Why do they want to destroy the only 300 Narcondam hornbills' habitat? These birds are rare and to build a radar instillation in this remote island is insane. It's comparable to the Navy test solar equipment in the depths of the ocean that will destroy dolphins' sensative sonar abilities. Oh man. Where is Jesus when we need him? Thnx Cal...

I agree BarbCat.
And as to where Jesus is...i think he may be overhauling the engine on the Karma Bus, because it has an long journey with an awful lot of stops to make this time around ! I CALL SHOTGUN!!!
