As far as the swastika, I have a bronze Buddha incense burner, about 5 inches tall that I brought back with me from Misawa Japan. Swastikas all around the base that Buddha is sitting on...

Who give a ratza$$ what it looks like from ground level or from a passing aircraft. That said, $600kbucks is being earmarked to clean up a photo that may have been taken four years ago (judging from when Nimitz may have had that pierside workup, backawaze). What if the Googleirs never change the image in theor photo database, or if they wait another five to ten years. Hear that flushing sound?

I understand people are offended by this accident in the building design and I don't get why it wasn't caught in blueprint development, but I have to sit here and wonder how much kevlar 600K can buy our troops, instead of attempting to cover something that has been there for nearly 50 years and will probably just look like a swastika that's been modified.

Not only that, but I seem to recall reading that some ancient synagogues had swastikas as part of their mosaic floor decorations. Damn' Nazis! This is why we can't have nice things! (See Encyclopedia Dramatica, but be warned afore-like that they're right rude, there.)
