"Bomber" is derived from the cargo cult in New Guinea. During WWII the supplies were dropped by parachute to the allied troops in the New Guinea jungle. Often the supplies would go astray and the indigionous people wouwhat ld find free "cargo."

The end of the war brought the end of the planes and thus the end of the cargo, whereupon the natives built effigies of the planes and prayed to them to return.

With our dependence on transportation, perhaps we should constuct our own
fetish images.
