Soldiers with earrings?
It reminds me of a Monty Python clip: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I_iH1GhM2j8
Seriously though, if each guy is emitting RF, aren't they going to be rather easy for the enemy to find and target?
A well-known Italian hi-tech firm says it has just delivered a trial batch of datalink earrings to the Italian army, intended to relay vital-signs telemetry from troops in combat back to the command post in the style of the movie Aliens.

You're telling me that going to a mil trade show so that military types know we exist, and might help their guys train to avoid road accidents driving up-armored vehicles, is 'sick'?

Presumably it's the very existence of war at all that you oppose - otherwise your complaint is sheer nonsense ('War is necessary, but the people who make war stuff shouldn't discuss it with one another in one building because that's disturbing'). So I'd like to know what your suggestion for dealing with genuine military threats is.
Now, please hold on a minute - I know what you're thinking, but the question was not, "Please give me a list of wars with debatable justification" - it was, "give a practical suggestion for dealing with genuine military threats." Maybe we could all stick our fingers in our ears, shut our eyes, and think about bunny rabbits. Then we could avoid all of this 'sick' stuff, right?
