Open Inquiry to the FBI's Hostage Rescue Team

Since I seem to be fixated on numbers this morning, I have a couple simple questions for the FBI's Hostage Rescue Team:

Since your unit was activated in 1983, how much money, total, have your operations cost the American taxpayer?

How many hostages have you rescued?

How much is that per hostage?

Oh, I guess I also need to factor in how many "hostages" you haven't rescued...

By the way, you guys wouldn't happen to know anything about a BIG METAL DOOR, would you...?

The "pH" Factor

My Very Own Cultural Degeneracy Indicator

Google hits for “Patrick Henry
“Results 1 - 10 of about 885,000 for ‘Patrick Henry’.”

Google hits for “Paris Hilton
“Results 1 - 10 of about 6,060,000 for ‘Paris Hilton’.”

I wonder what the ratio of no return is, where the culture as a collective deserves to be doomed?
