My comment:
(a) 美国西东大学退休教授、台湾问题专家杨力宇 Winston Yang/Seton Hall University
(b) I do not know if US assists Taiwan to develop missiles--but I doubt it--at least not cruise or ballistic missiles. But Prof Yang was close to Mr Deng Xiaoping and is associated with China. Taiwan will not tell him anything, especially in the Chen administration.

"Batteries make up as much as 20% of the weight of the 100 pounds of gear a Marine infantryman typically carries. A Marine uses four times as much fuel as his counterpart did in the early 1990s—due to, among other things, laptops and other electronic gear that use electricity pumped out by portable generators.

"Some 30% of all fuel trucked into Afghanistan—at great risk—goes to power those generators, at a time when roadside bombs remain the most dangerous weapon faced by allied troops
