I was going to blow off this Slashdot story, but then, as if of their own accord, my fingers twitched over to this blog, which explained that there’s a U.S. nuclear submarine with a top-secret propeller, and Microsoft’s Virtual Earth got a pretty good look at it. Then I clicked on the actual Virtual Earth picture and saw why the submarine’s propeller is so top-secret: it’s really funny-looking. Seriously, it’s like a giant sunflower back there or something.
Kudos to our government’s various black ops divisions for realizing that it’s far too late to pull the photo…
