I actually did recognize it as Spanish - but my understanding of Spanish is woeful, so I tried to turn it into an "Insular American" joke. Obviously didn't work.)

Re: Ballistics are obsolete Ballistics as such would be less useful (though I doubt we;ll ever get totally away fron slugthrowers), but Damage Examination would still be a valid way of gathering information. A Laser, Particle Beam and an Ion Bolt might all discharge the same the same quantity of energy, but would have dramatically different effects on flesh and bone, leading to knowing both the type of weapon in involved and probably the rough megawattage of the discharge - which in turn could be cross-referenced to known weapon types and give a likely make and model. Beam spread could be analyzed to determine the rough range the weapon was fired at. With a Laser or Maser you might even be able to determine what frequency/color the beam was.

Re: What Fantasy/Sci-Fi book have you just finished? Please rate it... Old Soldiers, David Weber's take on Keith Laumer's Bolo universe. An excellent piece, set in the end of the Human Concordiat (The Ragnarok War with the Melconian Empire). One obsolete Bolo stands against an entire Melconian assault brigade - including eight heavy assault tanks that are near-equivalents to a modern Bolo... Not as good as The Road to Damascus, but still a good treatment.
