I know ppl on DSL and Cable, and lag is occuring spuriously and even disconnects as the internet traffic is continuing to rise , but the backbone Infrastructure is not receiving upgrades at critical points .
This is causing slow web browser loads, intermittent disconnects, and ping times that spike from time to time at predictable points along a trace route .
The choke points are literally choking, and you can run network monitoring tools to see where various ISPs and long haul providers are skimping on spending and it is causing odd behaviour from our broadband .
It doesn't happen all the time, but at peak usage times it is more prevelant .
Ppl in online games like everquest often type in messages to ppl on different ISP networks the question "lag???" and get a chorus of resounding echoes "yes" .
Some of this could be blamed on the game servers, and networks til you look at a test that was done by myself .
Different game, Different provider, Different ISP, corresponding lag spikes .
Key points of DNS or routing is reaching critical mass .
It could be the massive increase of p2p apps, it could just be total traffic, I do not know, but it does pose a important question.
With so many ppl in such a small area it will take less to heat the area in the winter .
Cooling however could be more difficult unless all heat producing devices are somehow vented in the warm part of the year, kind like dryer ducting for your fridges compressor unit .
When it was cold the heat would be trapped and not vented .
The massive amounts of sewer gas from such a city could be used like natural gas to power a electric generation system .
The rising heat from the cities vent systems could power thermal wind turbines near the top of the city .
Wind blowing toward the city could be focused into narrow canyons between the buidings taking advantage of the venturri effect, and getting more power with smaller windmills by focusing the wind .
Rooftops would be solar and wind as well, the higher you are the faster the wind .
Also we are going to need a lot of ppl if we plan to spread out amongst the galaxy .
The largest percentage of my calls as a consultant are compromised systems, mostly via malware and virii .
It is a good thing none of the botnets are run by ppl that are insidiously intelligent .
It would be horrendous what could be done .
The botnet could just become a VPN for command and control aspects, and then to make matters worse it could pickup its "orders" from any website or p2p network .
They could run encrypted e-mail as part of the botnet and recv its commands via anon-remailers .
It could also hold a percentage of compromised computers as reserve forces to further spread itself and only subject 80% perhaps to scrutiny due to attacks/spam being issued from them .
20% working as just further propagation .
It would suck on a whole new level .
The thing is security is SO bad, they don't have to be good, a lot of home users have trialware just ready to expire on their computer after the 1 year trial of software expires they are left wide open .
And then the ppl that use IE get hammered by malware that uses compromised ActiveX certificates .
That is a WHOLE other mess, Malware that installs backdoors on ur machine by using ActiveX as its backdoor and is not technically labeled as virii .
The Botnets if made sophisticated could orchestrate all this in a evil manner .
WinXP's biggest security hole is still fraudulent ActiveX certificates .

Ppl want their sports, their sexed up TV, their food, their family, and friends , and the rest of the world and what is going on they just blow it off .
One of the lowest rates of Alzheimer's appears in Indian villages, with only 1% of people 65 and older having the condition.

Online banking is not perfect, but billions of dollars are trusted to it each day .
I think at some point we can get a end to end SSH2(or better) encryption scheme setup with biometric user identification, ie. retina scan, thumb scan .

With a physical security, password security, SSL certificate, and IP registration it would be more secure than current online banking is today .
The current model stinks, agreed at that point, thus why I specified "something the works MUCH better"
It is not in use as of yet, and has not been implemented to my knowledge .
As for the print out ones working, you have the hanging chad fiasco as a down side to the old school way of doing things .
Thus no tech is perfect, and it takes a lot of in the field testing to make it the best we can .
A limited trial at local and state level would be best first .

I think a Co-op is needed, basically all ppl that want internet services get together and start funding locally controlled metro LAN's .

Ppl that have expertise in the field could donate their time for credits of usage .
Cost of implementing and maintaining and growing would be public knowledge, and it would be a zero profit entity except for any ppl that actually became employees of it .
Offer internships to college students to work on it, and help make it happen .
A grass roots effort, but with over sight by experts that work in the are of expertise .
I have setup ppl with Wifi that share it with their neighbors securely .
I have setup ethernet in dorm rooms and apartments .
I worked for a company that implemented the first stages of Internet2 in public schools .
The dark fiber between cities could be purchased by the Co-op and thus cities start to bridge the cost of long haul carriers .
I'm sorry, but no one has the right to have broadband.
While your statement has some truth, it is also like saying why don't we do away with municipal libraries . If people want books they can buy them !!!
You may be thinking I have taken this too far as a case and point, but here is why you may have that perception, your own personal usage of the Internet .
Some people do their homework via the web, some do business via the web, some do research and our send e-mail instead of letters . The internet is slowly replacing the way we do a lot of things .
We can print thousands of text books for school, or we can make it a torrent on the net .
We can print millions of voting cards, or we can make it an encrypted multi-point user verified voting system that works much better than the current corporate model .
We can pay per minute voice charges, or we can use VoIP .
We can pay postage on each e-mail we send , or we can mass e-mail all our family members photos of our newborn child, wedding, or graduation .
We can choose to realize its fiber with light pulses being turned on and off and using VERY little electricity, or we can say it costs TWICE as much to send 2 meg as it does 1 meg .
We should all easily realize the cost of sending 2 meg of data vs. 1 meg of data is not simply double all expenses .
Why did an OC-3 from chicago to washington cost 3 million per month in the late 90's ???
I understand recouping the cost of implementation, but that OC-3 was but one virtual channel of many signals being sent down a DWDM fiber line that was a OC-192 as a single strand of fiber that had been laid for long distance phone calls over a decade before .
The glass and putting it in the ground had long been paid for .
$36 million USD a year for less than 2% of the pipe means that the pipe would make them over 50 times that a month at that rate, roughly 1.8 billion .
They never laid just single strands, they laid bundles of multiple strands .
But we must recognize one pricing scheme of long haul fiber, quadruple the bandwidth, half the price per Mbit cost .
But then you come to the consumer, the more you want the more we are going to charge .
The telcos much like bernie ebers of WCOM are nothing but a bunch of corrupt , crooked scam artists , and my uncle worked as a union steward for one for 30 years, so I have heard ALL the inside dirt from SBC .
I got one word for the corporate whoring of the internet..."scum"
Other countries who were further behind us are now far ahead of us, and citizens have 100 Mega-bit fiber to their homes for reasonable prices .
In the country that made the internet possible our corporate pimps are too wrapped in greed, and our politicians take 200 billion of tax payer dollars from us to give to the corporate pricks to just screw us all and want more money thru.... "Tiered Internet"
Excuse me but this is Horseshit... Once again greed wins .
Likewise subsistance farming (there's not enough land for each person to farm enough for himself).
The rest of your point was good, this part is horribly wrong .
The majority of US farm land has been idled due to the low cost of foreign food, and the influx of huge Corporate farms like ADM(Archer Daniels Midland).
During Depression/World War II the people were told to grow a garden in there back yards to deal with the situation .
My Grandparents still had this habit when I was growing up as a kid thru the 70's and 80's .
We had so much food we canned it, froze it, and gave it away .
The large cities of the east and left coast this is not practical, but there are large patches of land throughout the mid west that were crushed due to Globalization and Willy Nelson and Friends held a series of concerts called Farm Aid for all the farmers whose families and lives were ruined by the globalization of food .
While it is good and great that we help the poor outside our borders, it is bad that we make our nation vulnerable to shipping embargos and eat food from countries that do not have the same pesticide rules as we do in the US .
Soil and water pollution levels in these countires are not monitored like they are here .
The taxes on land, the equipment, and the fuel are not on equal footing either, so the US farmer cannot compete and a large number of small farms went broke .
The cost of living is higher here, as is the cost of doing business .
Outourcing our food will be something that will come back to haunt us in the future .
I was born and raised on a farm, and I dare say you were not .
Before you blather on and try to make your "opinion" right via volume, you might do a little research before blasting blowhard leftist rhetoric .
I am neither a democrap, or rebulicorp, I take each issue individually .
The state of New Mexico, and Arizona have declared a state of emergency via their governors .
This request for help has gone "totally" ignored and unheard .
Thus formed dangerous groups like the minutemen at the border .
It is just a matter of time before things get out of hand and members of that group have received death threats .
School books being circulated in the US mention the nation of Aztlan and speak of plans to reclaim the SW portion of the US for hispanics to make a new nation .
What you are seeing is a cross border beginnings of a civil war in the SW US .
For those who don't "get it" go back to being an ostrich and stick your head back in the sand, and get ready to get goosed .

for fusion , though we will end up going to the moon for the fuel .

You will notice #6 the 3he + 3he reacion does not make nuetrons .
Thus the material damage issue is resolved, the fuel acquisition issue is not .

Shows the reactor they are using to fuse D + 3HE at this time, and are
on target for the fusing of 3HE + 3HE in the not too distant future .
Their intended eventual goal is this 3HE clean reactor .

I am not saying this to nullify the negative aspects of human vehicles, but it does make one
wonder how rapid the climate shift is about to be .
I think 2012 will interesting .

I think as a plasma physicist you might want to read this .
You will notice the section on Neutronicity .
In the 3HE + 3HE reaction you will notice it is "ZERO"
This is what your neighbors ultimate goal is there .
Presently I think they have D + 3HE working .
If they are next door you might go ask them why they have this up on
the web if you feel it is wrong ????

Before you blather on and try to make your "opinion" right via volume, you
might do a little research before blasting blowhard leftist rhetoric .
I am neither a democrap, or rebulicorp, I take each issue individually .
The state of New Mexico, and Arizona have declared a state of emergency via their governors .
This request for help has gone "totally" ignored and unheard .
Thus formed dangerous groups like the minutemen at the border .
It is just a matter of time before things get out of hand and members
of that group have received death threats .
School books being circulated in the US mention the nation of Aztlan and
speak of plans to reclaim the SW portion of the US for hispanics to make
a new nation .
What you are seeing is a cross border beginnings of a civil war in the SW US .
For those who don't "get it" go back to being an ostrich and stick your head
back in the sand, and get ready to get goosed .
Peace !
