The circular logic to your comment is that science has given you a medium (Slashdot) to voice your concerns. I don't have the faintest idea where I would start if I were to try and understand the sciences you mention. However, I DO think that understanding science(s) is based on our own evolution in the way that some scientific findings are eventually accepted as "truths". For example, 4000 years ago, we had no concept of the number 0. Basic math which my 3 year old daughter understands quite fully. A few hundred years ago, our planet was thought to be flat. Once again, we learn very early in our lives that the Earth is flat. My expectation is this : Give us another 500 or 1000 years, and we'll have quantum mechanics in elementary school. You heard it here first.

I'm sure you could do something interesting with www.untangle.com. With the webfiltering options... It's kind of designed for this stuff...
That's the sound of inevitability Mr. Anderson !
