Re: checking calendar
Well, the proposal has got nearly all of the right tech, military and MBA buzzspeak in there and lots of acronyms and initials, it has a top secret classification and names for the individual sub projects that make it difficult for any but an insider to know which bit does what.
A perfect project to run over time, over budget and still underperform without being accountable.
Sounds perfect to me.
Of course it probably won't win a war or stop weddings being bombed but it'll be some income for the old boys.
