It amuses me how your demand for attention is so desperate that you simply HAD to put up something, ANYTHING that had your screen name attached to it, even if it's a considerably pace-breaking killjoy response to something that was very obviously a single-shot joke post, adding absolutely nothing in the process.

It's like you saw this you-shaped hole in the conversation, and, dagnabbit, you just HAD to fill it, because otherwise that's just not right! Imagine, a conversation without your name in it! It'd be absurd!

Let's bring the literacy rate up, and put an "app" on peoples devices, phones, tablets, computers, etc that allows everyone in their country read bills being proposed, who wrote them, lobbying for them, and actually participate in the process.

Why does this remind me of the spoof commercial I saw somewhere for the 12 blade facial razor, for the ultimate in close shaves? The thing looked like a damn textbook attached to a Bic razor handle. 62 speakers sound like extreme overkill in any environment outside a professional theater.

maybe cos its a government research organisation, not a commercial company. maybe the difference is that many other government research orgs are quite happy to sink countless millions in taxpayer-funded grants into new tech that is merely ripped off by commercial companies, so that taxpayers get to pay for it twice-over.
