Rumor has it The Feds played Yoko at the Waco TX Standoff in an attempt to irritate them out of hiding, and it may have been what triggered the suicidal outburst. But I've yet to verify that rumor.
so the "Dept. of Don't Be Evil" can plot their evilness growth curve.
Why the hell are we still stuck using Javascript...
Because it would take a large group of organizations to cooperate and work together, which rarely happens. Closed source wants to lock out competitors and open source wants to each be their own kings of their own little hills for bragging rights. (Almost nobody really works for "free", they all want either money or credit/status.)
I'd loooove to see a GUI-friendly markup language that is either far less dependent on any scripting or application code for the common desktop-like GUI idioms, or at least is not heavily dependent on ONE language, like JavaScript is per DOM.
But it's probably too big a project for a small group of geeks to get right (or to make good enough to gain traction). Rich GUI kits are not easy to implement. Plus, it probably has to be backward compatible with most of the existing HTML stack. The separation of applet and HTML page is part of what killed Java applets.

I believe they can create an interesting ad campaign around the problem. Put up billboards near the state border: "BANNED IN [State]! The Car The Gov't Doesn't Want You To Know About". (A state can prevent in-state sales, but not owning.)
To manage a complex project well, generally you have to be a little bit of a dick at times. Too soft, and people walk all over you or ignore you. Too jerky, and nobody wants to work for you or feel unmotivated to please you. The best managers for such projects know when turn up the heat a bit, yet not in an arbitrary and moody way, otherwise the heat loses meaning in a calling-wolf way.
Labor of love? Goatse simulator? You are freaking me out.
I solved this by patenting the white lie
