I dont know Robb,

All results and answers apply to the period starting Feb 1st 2008, through Dec 31 2008, all answers should be given in USD$. No answer may be generalized .....Cryptic answers will also be disqualified.


Also stealth planes are not invisible, they are only low-radar profile. I suppose if the top movie approaches 2Billion$, I'll reconsider.

Also, there are many stealth planes, all with different costs, a B1b Is only about 250M.

I found this but it has no pricetag as of yet:

http://archive.newsmax.com/archives/articles/2005/2/10/202311.shtml

Visual stealth has not received the public attention of the anti-radar technology applied on the Senior Prom, F-117, B-2 and F-22 aircraft. There is now a major effort under way by the U.S. and U.K. military to make aircraft nearly invisible in daylight.

Probably around $500 million

Thank you very much, BPS!

Oh, you need to change your sig. At the very least, the tense is now wrong.

Why not question something for a change?

Heh, precictions you want, is it? Well, here's some right out of the prophet's crack pipe:

"By John A Davison on Feb 9, 2008 | Reply

I predict that within one year of this date, Pharyngula, Panda's Thumb, EvC, RichardDawkins.net and Uncommon Descent will all have so completely degenerated as to become nothing but embarrassing footnotes in the history of internet communication. I also predict that P.Z. Myers and Richard Dawkins will have so embarrassed their home institutions that overt attempts will have been initiated to have their tenures revoked on the grounds of moral turpitude and seeking to overthrow the government. Public institutions like the University of Minnesota and Oxford cannot continue much longer to tolerate representatives so lacking in moral and ethical fiber as these two pathetic products of a “prescribed” and now terminated organic evolution. They make Ward Churchill look like Shirley Temple. Unlike Churchill who was never a threat to anyone, these two actively seek to destroy Western Civilization. I also predict there will soon be an Atheist Political Party. We already have an Atheist Political Action Committee (APAC) and a professed atheist member of the House of Representatives.

It is hard to believe isn't it?

Fortunately for them, by that date, February 9, 2009, the physical destruction of our civilization will have proceeded to such a degree that thinking people will no longer be concerned about intellectual trash like Richard Dawkins and P.Z. Myers.

Read the whole thing; it's a hoot! Found it linked at PZ's.

'Operation Whirling Squid' is an amazingly cool name though. Just for that, I hope PZ will attempt to overthrow Western Civilization.

Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every "superstar," every "supreme leader," every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there – on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.
Carl Sagan - 1996
