    One problem with your theory.

    The WTO will embargo the US, and if you have not looked
    lately we don't manufacture much here.

    Also a near worldwide embargo will have an effect on us.

    Alot of ppl like to yack on about how we won WW2, but in fact
    the Russians bore the brunt of the casualties, and fighting.

    The US is vulnerable to having the oil cut off at this point too
    as we import 70% of the oil into this country.

    Luckily Canada is our #1 oil importer.

    It is not too hard to hack a network if you got
    counterfeit hardware inside the network giving
    you a backdoor in.

    So once they got in, they learned what they needed
    to know to stay in, and put other methods in place
    to stay in.

    They are going to have to rebuild their network one segment
    at a time from the ground up.

    They need several things with one of them being segment
    monitoring IDS system that can detect the outbound traffic.

    Something that can track all outbound traffic against
    a white-list of acceptable IPs, think a reverse peer guardian
    that tracks what IP's are reached and snds alarms if they
    are not on the list.

    In any event they will have a monumental task of clearing
    all the backdoors in the system, and should consider going
    totally to a secure hardware+software encrypted VPN that
    does not even travel over the public internet.

    There is enough dark fiber out there to do it for the classified
    material they transmit.

    Also if most of your military traffic goes over the old
    global crossing network, don't allow the public sale of
    that network to a foreign nation with an oppposing ideology.

    a few things.

    Microsoft intentionally made other companies software run slow

    some of the ppl making the choices for the company

  23. Some energy ideas, one partially of my design on Google To Fund Ideas That Will Change the World · · Score: 1

    These are worthy of mention...

    The Aquanator captures power for underwater currents.

    http://www.smh.com.au/articles/2004/09/26/1096137100758.html?oneclick=true

    The Florida current has 30 times the flow of all rivers
    of the World.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gulf_stream#Possible_renewable_power_source

    The Antarctic current has 135 times the flow of all the
    rivers of the world.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antarctic_Circumpolar_Current

    There are a lot of other underwater currents around the world.

    This next idea has been more about how to do it vs. practicality.

    I think the undersea currents are the best direction at present.

    But for those who like to think on the fringe...

    Some ppl have found out that 1% of the jet stream world wide
    would replace all forms of fuel and power around the world.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jet_stream#Future_power_generation

    No one has figured out a sure way to capture the power.

    But I think I have an idea how to do it.

    Cables from the extreme height to the ground in a 100+ mph wind
    are going to be subject to terrible sheer forces.

    Microwave loses power over distance geometrically.

    With the high altitude aerodynamic balloon you can ease into
    the high winds like jet liners do now to cut down on long
    flight times.

    A large Zeppelin like the prior planned Cargo-lifter, but
    designed for higher altitude flight like planned by
    21st century airships, and fuelless flight.

    Cargolifter 160 tonne capacity planned Zeppelin: ( out of business )

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cargolifter

    The fuelless flight idea:

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4nKltbQ8PBQ

    21st century airships ( Strato-lites - High Altitude Balloons )

    http://www.21stcenturyairships.com/HighAlt

    21st century plans a balloon that will reach 67,000 ft
    above all the wind and can act as a low cost satellite for telecom.

    The jet stream is around 25,000 ft up.

    Imagine these ideas as a hybrid where it can move into the
    Jet Stream, and capture power via Super Capacitiors or in
    some other extreme dense power storage method.

    Then it glides to the ground once full of stored energy
    in what ever form is most efficient and xfers it.

    If two were connected like in the Fuelless flight idea,
    it would have a Cargo capacity of near 320 tonnes.

    The extreme cold at that height might also make
    super conductors viable.

    It is a wild and expensive idea, but it could be tested
    small scale with a smaller model with long range remote controls
    like 21st century has planned for their unmanned balloons.

    A manned flight to 132,000 ft. is in the works right now.

    http://www.guardian.co.uk/science/2003/jul/11/spaceexploration.sciencenews

    So 25,000 ft. unmanned is quite doable.
