Re:What about the missing nukes?
actually, they're not really 'missing' per say, just ignored on the bottom of the ocean: OaklandTribune.com get yerself a waterproof geiger counter and a couple of divers and become a member of the nuclear club! the air force doesn't care enough to do it themselves, if you're not an evil terrorist, there could be some salvage $ in it. .

Alameda County has been pursuing these issues .....for some time. There have been several articles in the Oakland Tribune and other local papers. Alameda County has complained to Diebold and is clearly pusuing the issue.
Alameda County is basically the "East Bay", ie. across the Bay from San Francisco, including Berkeley, Oakland, Fremont, etc.

Mean while...
The Oakland tribute reports that a Billionaire increases Safeway stake. Accel-KKR owns GroceryWorks which is Safeway, Inc. exclusive online shopping provider.

Another article on problems with Diebold systems
This article highlights problems also. In the follow-up it appears that Diebold still claims that their systems work, despite evidence to the contrary.

includes small crappy picture
The submitter of this story linked to the printer-friendly version of the article, which I suppose is a good thing to do in general. There was, however, a small and rather crappy picture that was included in the original version.

Perfect engineering? All problems known?
Yes, and I have spent time doing business in Taipei. My understanding is that there is a big likelihood that there will be an earthquake larger than 7 on the Richter scale. Not only that, but I doubt their ability to know every technical problem of having an earthquake of 7 on the scale.
The article says, "Some have worried that the building would be dangerous in earthquake -prone Taiwan. But the skyscraper's developers have said the closest fault line is 660 feet from the building, and the fault hasn't been active in 45,000 years."
This is utter nonsense. An earthquake does not need to be close to a building to destroy it.
Earthquakes close to 7 are not rare. The Bay Area quake was 6.9. California is part of the same earthquake system, the Pacific basin. -
Government abuse of a database? Never.For all you doubters out there, here's flagrant abuse, in addition to all the other links people have already submitted, of government databases. And these ones aren't anywhere near as juicy as TIA!

Re:Minority Report - RUINED
BTW this is exactly what I'm talking about when I say that we're stupid to be chasing Saddam so hard right now. So tell me one more time how it is that Iran and Korea don't get the same war threats?
