On a flight into the Bay Area from Miami, a man was spotted by a stewardess with plans on his laptop for a rocket the size of the Nazis' V-2. His cover: a geeky venture capitalist who's never had to grow up. One worrying fact: the original Nazi wonder weapon, which the Draper Fisher investor plans to replicate, had only a 50% chance of landing within 11 miles of a target.

Oh, Schvitz, Peenemunde envy: that's good.
