While I''m really glad that the steel ladders in question proved so unexpectedly beneficial, I pale at the thought of Ottawa managing to spend $16,000 each for them. I suppose platinum would be too soft, and magnesium too expensive - no, wait a minute, ''expensive'' - what''s that? Brings to mind things like ashtrays, doesn''t it?

OTTAWA -- The helicopter war took off yesterday as Sikorsky launched a surprise attack against Team Cormorant''s EH-101, and the two companies shed their gloves in the $3-billion race to replace Canada''s 40-year-old Sea Kings.
One Cormorant official called it a "pissing contest" as the two manufacturers compared the size and strength of their products, which they hope to sell to the Canadian Forces in coming months.
