The US is already arresting people in other countries, not just this one, for infractions of U.S. law. Noriega wasn't even in the US, but his butt was nabbed by the US, and prosecuted in this country for his crimes.
The U.S. supreme court even decided that this was appropriate.
World government isn't in the future, it is now.
Why do you think all those whackos were protesting the WTO in Seattle? They see world government, and many people are [rightfully] scared.
Thank goodness the Scientologist critic [see earlier slashdot articles, and info on http://www.theregister.co.uk/ ] made it up to Canada, and after a month detainment, the Cannucks opened up their arms and said "Welcome to Canada. Political asylum granted."

On the Discover channel, several years ago [96, 97?], on the program Discover 2000, they were showing a research group that had changed the way gas was ignited in the cylinders of a combustion engine. Instead of using a spark plug directly, they used a spark plug on a small chamber directly above the cylinder. Into the chamber was injected pure hydrogen, the spark ignites the hydrogen, and the hydrogen completely ignites the fuel. They demonstrated their system with slow mo photography of a combustion cylinder [with one side covered with some type of high impact/high thermal tolerance plastic] the difference between regular directly sparked combustion, and combustion with hydrogen. The difference in the way the fuel ignited was remarkable. Emmissions dropped to below measurability by the emmissions test equipment used by states with emmission laws, and the needle didn't even move. Everything that came out was CO2 and water.
As for the safety of hydrogen, I would like to point out that most people's gas tanks, that are partially filled with gas and air, are already massive bombs, so what's the big deal about sticking a tank of hydrogen under the hood?
The fuel efficiency was amazing. The performance of the engine was also suitably enhanced. Imagine a Ford Pinto going 180 mph down the freeway!
