Being deliberately obtuse does not win your argument.
My argument is: Technology deployed by the military to get the mission done is expensive, not developed by the military alone and doesn't always end up producing anything we the public will ever use.

There is also nothing new in using "alternative" fuels by the military. The press seems to have noticed all of a sudden. (I wonder what corporations stand to make a fortune supporting which technologies?)

there's more but I'm sure other people can use google.
