The government trains dolphins to act as scouts, bomb locators, enemy subs, and drowning swimmers/swimmer defense. I just saw it on MSNBC TV. This is cool! They actually train dolphins to do all this military stuff!

Sorry no link, search on MSNBC.com for "Sentinels at Sea" or something like that.

Yeah, I betcha Flipper was just a ploy to get the average citizen comfortable and trusting with dolphins! Has anyone seen that one Simpson's episode were the dolphins take over the land?

Ya, they were doing this during the Cuban missile crisis and the cold war (well duh).
