No--but I do think it'll take a gutsy artilleryman to
shoot 'em at us.  :)  Seriously, that's an interesting
idea.  What is being looked at as a countermeasure?

The flop side of this is that if someone else does it,
we can do it too.  First time these puppies are used
against us, we'll probably decide they are useful
enough to put in inventory.  That's one of the few
ways to get our attention if the idea didn't come from
the US.
