Blimps?

It was the picture that drew me to this article. Quickly followed by the thought, "They want to do what?" In addition to visions of the Hindenburg flashing in my head. The idea of a military blimp seems pretty ridiculous to me, but who am I to question billion dollar defense contracts? Near the end of the article, someone mentions the idea of a "cruise ship in the sky." And while the idea completely freaks me out, at the same time, I am completely drawn to it. L.A. to New York in eighteen hours at about 10,000 feet, wow crazy. I think I could be down for that. I think.
