I consulted for the USPTO several years ago, holding classes on memory and memory interfaces, USB, and Firewire It paid very well, but in the class of 50 examiners there wasn't even one who seemed to care or had any kind of interest in what I was saying. I was invited back but declined.
The big issues in designing optical switches is their switching time and minimum switch pulse width. I and my group built what is probably the first all-optical computer in the early '90s. We used Lithium Niobate switches, which limited the machine's clock frequency of 100 MHz.

My credit union sent me notification that their Visa card accounts may have been exposed, and my two cards would be replaced. It took me over an hour to mail, phone, and login to accounts to change my CC number. 100,000 numbers compromised? 100,000 hours lost. Make the blighters pay.
