   I think this represents a potentially huge paradigm shift for the   
   arms industry.  Instead of million dollar, radiation hardened bombs,   
   built by a select few "qualified" contractors, "sticks and stones"   
   seem to be effective!   
      
   Suddenly, "players" without deep pockets can become significant adversaries!
