that is awesome. i bet at least one of the troops thought he had walked into heaven.

hah
they tried to burn it...i'm sure there was a good reason for that

they are canadians...

"stumbled across an unexpected and potent enemy"
How'd they know it was potent?

what, no pics?!?!

This would make a great video game. "Super Ganja Taliban Hunter 3-D"

"We tried burning them with white phosphorous -- it didn't work. We tried burning them with diesel -- it didn't work. The plants are so full of water right now ... that we simply couldn't burn them," he said.

Wow... what can't it do?

it can't drive 55 that's for damn sure. they keep getting up to 42 and then saying "whoah...man..." or "whoah...dude?" and then they are back down to 30.

ahahahahahahahaha touché

thats awesome what the soldier said" never thought i'd say that damn marijuana " haha... i hope i never see that day

"The challenge is that marijuana plants absorb energy, heat very readily. It's very difficult to penetrate with thermal devices."

i did not know that.

water has a super high specific heat, 1.

While they might be very difficult to penetrate with thermal imaging they're incredibly easy to see with it. Just ask all those hicks the Indiana State Police busted on Frontline.
