  2. Re:Fearmongering at it's worst on Gen. Keith Alexander On Metadata, Snowden, and the NSA: "We're At Greater Risk" · · Score: 1

    I think when the A/C regains consciousness, it will not even remember its post.

    It is not that they have gone to far, it's that staff members are using this information for personel gain; that's what's chilling.

    What you are painfully missing is that Kieth is burned out. It's tragic, but it happens to people who have been successful in the past and finally run out of soutions to the current set of problems their job incounters. The one thing that Kieth is resisting is that the more educated people are, the better decsions people make. His basic flaw of his own logic is, "I have all the knowledge, I know best." As long as proud ignorence is promoted, it hard for usefull Solutions.

    If you have a Trade Secret, then do you mind anyone knowing it?

  6. Re:The RAV4 EV was strictly a compliance scam car on Future of Cars: Hydrogen Fuel Cells, Or Electric? · · Score: 1

    I would suggest you not look up, but there is this thing called the "Sun", and it's on and spewing out energy all day long. Now, there is this process called, "Electrolysis," it separates the Hydrogen from the Water. Fortunetly, the waste product of that process is called "Oxygen"; I think of it as waste gas excreited by plants. Existing gas stations would be an excellent place to set up this stuff. Just like when we went from Leaded Fuels; good times, good times.

    With respect to Hydrogen, the U.S. lies between the 2 largest reserves on the planet. It's renewable, and the cost is less than recycling lithium batteries. Maybe Tesla can drive from San Yesidro,CA Vancover,BC? I can get Hydrogen where ever there is water; lets try that for a lithium battery.

    Unbreakable? LOL. There are some folks over at the NSA that are spitting up their coffee.

    One cannot help but wonder what would happen if Router manufacturers put in smaller EPROMS, and Onboard RAM; to reduce costs of course.

    So your argument is that an Engineer in America shouldn't have to worry that on average about 300,000 H1B Engineers show up in this country every year? Are you a greeter at Wal-Mart? Because, your not an engineer in America.
