One Person Has So Much Faith in Bears

Two bears boxing.

"Bears have scent detection that is far superior to bloodhounds! Trained bears with GPS and day/night cameras around their necks might be able to hunt down the scent of UBL [Osama bin Laden], even in and through any caves and tunnels!!! Overnight, Parachute some bears into areas UBL might be. Attempt to train bears to take off parachutes after landing, or use parachutes that self-destruct after landing. " —One of many awesome messages sent to the Pentagon via the "Contact Us" link on the Defense Department website [Stars and Stripes]
