Also, there was this one C64 game, where you nominally play a world peacekeeper, IIRC. However, despite being a small kid (or perhaps because of it), I quickly figured out how to provoke nuclear exchanges; much more entertaining.
Though there seem to be limits - I don't remember any game reenacting, say, Warsaw Ghetto uprising. Imagine the media frenzy this one would spawn. I suspect the Vietnam also has similarly untouchable episoddes.
To score on 2012? Turns out the clock was running a little fast after all those millenia...
(seriously - it would be interesting if the observed solar cycle is, more or less, a result of interfence of few underlying ones; for starters, the Sun is a bit flattened, so propagation times of various disturbances might very well differ depending on direction; and if they interact... )
For some reason what you describe doesn't quite fall in line with how the very similar ESA free-flying project, which seriously researched joining forces with NASA effort, apparently says as one of its ending conclusions "we would still need to determine if this is even feasible with ~available tech"...
It's a border hardware between user and provider (a "landlord", if you will - and not actually entering into the private space); those fall under some control of the latter...
Not much of it, sure (Skype being maybe the only notable example); but in the sense of willing to train oneself in "new ways", the way via modern Pascal-related tools might be handy.
"Astronomical telescopes and spysat cameras" - yeah. But "Hubble and Keyhole" - probably somewhat more than little. The same main manufacturer of both spacecraft and apparently the same mirror diameter are strong hints... (the astro cameras of course are fairly specific; but the general tech, CCD, was of might interest for spysats; and Hubble could, and have done so rarely, image the surface)
With the amount of meddling in the past, can you really blame some places for certain amount of "anti-globalization, anti-capitalistic, anti-US sentiment", perhaps "overreacting" in their blowback?
Yeah, you desperately want to look at it in a certain way...
Review & redaction took place. Journalists got the data first (did you forget already that this is what you'd like to see, in one previous post?) Oh, could be better of course, sure - for example if the US specifically didn't turn down the offer of providing guidance.
And generally one has to want to know how he looks, I assure you. Heck, while "Wikileaks" certainly got hold of public imagination, with him it's usually "Assange-who?" Well, perhaps unless it's specifically about US media; a circus anyway.
Yes, now I can better see where your thoughts are stupid. You don't get it how you can't have "this information made available to *news outlets* (//which they did as the first thing) and academics for review & analysis" in a transparent way without "the stoopid masses" also having access to most of it.
Assange & public attention? Without checking, do you even know how the man looks?
Nokia actually owns the facilities manufacturing their phones. By far most of dozen of them not in China, half of them in the EU, one even quite close to Cupertino.
But not a "test", not in this case, not to convince some people that the WiFi is irrelvant, to "settle the matter in a couple of weeks." One of those parents would just drive by with a laptop or a phone with WiFi; commence drama. Or would order his child to check regularly; what the poor little kid would do if not listen and "confirm" causes which firmly push any blame away, on external "evil" factors?
Whatever the alternativr, it gives large number of very uneducated people in the society, impacting it severely. Also your "opportunities" in said society, don't kid yourself you or your children don't benefit greatly from public education, even if "not using" it.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DEFCON_(video_game) - fairly close

Or how many WW2 games...

You forgot to mention how there also was a bit of a counter-point.
Did GP even read TFA? (uhm, yeah, silly me...)
"these days"?

We could have only wished a typical geocities site to be so classy...

And you really think it won't be dismissed by "well, the WiFi was really almost off, not broadcasting SS...something"?
Yes, yes, only rushed (missed again how some could have easily helped?) - I guess that's why not all documents were released then?
Nobody really knows still who he is. Well, again, except people who are told they "should be concerned"...

Are you really so stupid? How could the data be "properly analyzed" if it isn't available in the first place?
Ohhh, I see it, you want only the good guys doing the analyzing...
The first really big theatrical sequel
"The Godfather Part II" would like to have a word with you...
(and of course we can't forget Planet of the Apes "series", basically a decade earlier ;) )
W8, assuming this new tire (or any other tech that improves efficiency) is indeed better, why would we "go back" after a switch to electric cars?

Studies, sure.

Yeah, indeed you don't get a difference (and practical implications for everybody) between "someone" and "large enough part of the society"...
How does a big, complex system help with funding problems?
The logical thing to do is a double-blind test.
That's impossible to do with WiFi in "live" scenario, certainly not if some paranoid parents (or kids forced to find an excuse) are involved.

*It's average, not bad at all, grouping around quite nice value, by definition.
