#1 Absolutely correct! Terrorism futures may not have worked at all; but for them to be so soundly mocked and hammered BEFORE they could even be tried is an organization killer!

What we are going through is truly a cultural war: should people have the opportunity to live within some rules and have an opportunity to influance what those rules are; or will we have to live by strict rules that are laid down by someone else with no chance of modification by the people? Call it Islamism vs Democracy or what ever, that is what all this boils down to. We fought just about the same war for 50 years against a different mind-set (Communism) and won; it is up to a new generation to show its stuff and do the same or go the way of the Dodo.

#2 Speaking of WOT Futures, can I ask why the Davis recall election is on the list here? What does that have to do with anything?

#3 The very technology over which we are communicating, the Internet, was conceived, funded, and pushed forward by DARPA. The World Wide Web is just one application out of many that run over it.

I say let DARPA go for it: They and the American Research community saved our collective ass before, and they can do it again.
