  >Well, put yourself in his shoes, he got fucked out of a big prize!

  I am.  Yes, he got f'ed out of a big prize; but how is holding on to the
  past resolve it?  I'm not saying he can't be angry about it.  But I don't
  think his brooding is going to solve it.  He invented the Internet.  Maybe
  he is smart enough to invent a time machine to go back to the past and fix
  the problem.

  >In my opinion, that is a fantastic attribute!

  I will reply with an equally sarcastic response.  There are about 300
  million people in the US that are not George Bush.  Are they all qualified
  to take office?

  >Regardless of party affiliation, a rememberance is never wrong, the events
  >of 9-11 changed the world forever....

  I'm divided on the issue myself.  I do see it as a potential risk though.
