This info was out before the second GW Bush "victory." There is a feeling of inertia in the population - we know this info but nothing much happens - no demonstrations, just a few editorials. But maybe a movie/HBO special, something visual, will get things to change. Just a thought - maybe this is an issue that the younger generation could be getting worked up about (as we once did about the Vietnam war, civili rights, the women's movement). Where are the young people? I guess thinking like this is one of those signs of getting older! > > > > > Here's a CNN report on hackable machines: > > http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pGOKkQD71rQ > To subscribe, send a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Or go to: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/ and click 'Join This Group!'
