Sensor Networks for NBC Threats

Posted by michael on from the reports-are-still-coming-in dept.

Nerdsville writes "Planet Analog have an article describing research into a nationwide sensor network that could provide a real-time early-warning system for chemical, biological and nuclear threats across the US. Researchers plan to use microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) and nanotechnology to create accurate biological and chemical sensors. Linked in an Internet-like peer-to-peer network spanning wireless, wired and satellite links."

    I'm completely disgusted by all the money the US Government plans on wasting on this whole "War on Terra." I for one feel just as safe as I did prior to 9/11 and I felt completely safe back then. This is just another way for the government to waste the tax payers money.

    If you really want to make the Country safe then you should get rid of all the H1B visas in the country as they are the real threat to us. If you don't think the next terra attack is going to come from the high tech crowd then you better think again mister.

    Warmest regards,
