The EU

Google says the EU requires a notice of cookie use (by Google) and says they have posted a notice. I don't see it. If cookies bother you, go elsewhere. If the EU bothers you, emigrate. If you live outside the EU, don't go there.

Andy Marshall

I always wonder about articles that start out "deep in the bowels of the Pentagon".  The phrase conveys, to me, the deep underground areas of the Pentagon, like where you go to find the Army's Map Storage, where you can find all sorts of maps.  Or, the Army's Operations Center, where Defense Support of Civil Authorities is conducted.

But to say
Somewhere deep in the bowels of the Pentagon — perhaps while you are reading this — Andrew Marshall is working.
misses the point that the Office of Net Assessment, the office of Andrew Marshall, is on the third or fourth floor and off the A Ring.  But, the Daily Caller article on Dr Marshall provides a nice quick introduction.

Andy Marshall has been not just a thinker, but also a mentor who has raised up a lot of thinkers on issues of national security.  In that way he has been like a Professor of National Security and Strategic Thinking.

A nice article about someone who is not only very bright, but also a very nice man.
