I wish, for once, scientists would quit making things up as they go along. We have NO DEFINITIVE PROOF of any such thing. Though I do like to dream, there is a very hard line between dreams and reality. This goes back to scientists saying the Earth is millions of years old when they have no ABSOLUTE PROOF of that claim. If you look at the actual time lines of our written record, it is far easier to believe that the earth may be around 500,000 yrs old. Carbon Dating gives alot of FALSE POSITIVES.

I think its time for US, the PUBLIC, to start CHARGING our ELECTED REPESENTATIVES with TREASON for doing this back handed, secretive bullshit. They need to go to prison and made an example of. I'm tired of these ELECTED TYRANTS trying to change the CONSTITUTION that THEY are SWORN TO UPHOLD and PROTECT !

This is a STUPID idea ... particularly when governments around the world are installing hardware and software to SPY on people. Being able to lock them out is a necessity to you keeping your privacy unless you want a TYRANNICAL WORLD of 1984 (Orwell's famous classic book and movie) to be a reality or maybe V for Vendetta ! Rethink what you are proposing folks. Its not about having something to hide. Its about keeping your FREEDOMS and your PRIVACY from PRYING EYES !

Has anyone seriously taken the time to calculate the amount of money changing hands in these Technical Law Suits ? If they would simply STOP suing each other and start COLLABERATING they might find the world a better place to live. PATENTS need to be OUTLAWED ... I believe that time has come. Its time to stop thinking about SELF and OWNERSHIP and start WORKING FOR THE GOOD OF HUMANITY !

We are going to have to move the planet off of the current financial system in order to bring about real work to accomplish goals like this. Money is a ROAD BLOCK to fully achieving success as a PEOPLE and a PLANET Cost is not a factor. It is the willingness and willpower of the People who live here to come together and make it all happen.

A "Degree" does NOT make a man or a woman. It is a piece of paper, used as fodder, in the game of dollars between the HR department person and the prospective new hire. TECH Certifications also fall into this same category. Anyone can teach a monkey to push a button to get a banana from the hidden door. CEO's don't understand IT and IT Departments. CTO's are MBA's with a smidgeon of IT thrown in. CIO's are protectors of the companies secrets. The IT Department folks make or break a company any day of the week depending upon what failes and how fast it can be brought back up into working order. Trying paying your IT Tech's more money and quit relying on people in CIO and CTO positions that don't have or use any IT skills.

CEO's do not understand the ROLE that CIO's play. Sure, it would help if the CIO had some business experience, however, most CIO's are TECH's that have grown up into those positions. CIO's understand that the heart and nerve center of every business that uses and utilities IT infrastructures, CEO's don't ... they only care about the bottom line and the profit they generate. IT runs everything in this world. Water, Electric, Gas supplies, traffic lights, security cameras and so on. If we took a dive back 70-100 years, people wouldn't know how to work or how to act or how to conduct business because IT has made their lives so much easier (yet more complicated).

It is indeed a sad day that Santorum leaves the race for the GOP Presidential nod. He should take all of his support and team up with Gingrich to topple Romney from getting the valued spot. Romney and the Morman Church do NOT need to be at the top of the heap. Romney is a JOKE ! He won't defeat OBAMA. He might have the money, but he does not have the CLOUT !!!

The Lawyers who are pushing this agenda should be put on the Big Red Boat and allowed to sink with it in the middle of the shark infested ocean. The Movie and Music Industry need to get a grip and embrace OPEN SOURCE ideas instead of their GREEDY quagmire of DOLLARS !

4 Score and about 30 years ago, our wretched national fathers dreampt up a new nation, vivid with color and nocturnal. The primordial soup of the internet and now because it has become so intrenched in society that it needs further extrusion of the excrament created in cyberspace by having cyber-thugs doing the cleaning with clear cut violations of the 4th Amendment (at least as far as the UsA is concerned). I for one do not agree that the DHS needs to hire 1000 new people for IT related work. Actually, the USAF is doing a very fine job with the assistance of Lockheed-Martin in cyber-defense. Why not utilize them and create more positions in the military to fill this void that DHS claims to have and need?

Isn't the definition of an "Expert" something like fecal matter? We have enough fecal matter flowing from with the government and from the private sector that we really don't need anymore. There aren't enough toilets to flush them all in. Besides, could be giving IT a bad name and connotations like that of lawyers needing to take a trip on the big red boat and it suddenly comes into port without any of them on it.
