					<description>The whole problem is this. In America we have known for at least twenty years that oil was the premier problem we would have to tackle in the last quarter of the twentieth century and the first quarter of the twenty-first century. The decisions that were made along the way are extremely troubling. Rather than push for legislation that would encourage fuel efficient cars, legislation was pushed to discourage fuel efficient cars. Rather than compel the auto and oil industries to increase R&#038;D in the area of transportation systems that wouldn't require oil in the interest of national security any research and development that these industries did do was abandoned. We have known for at least twenty yeatrs now that the CO2 emmitted from automobiles was going to act like a blanket warming our fragile planet, yet we required nothing from our transportation sector to mitigate this looming problem. Now we have SUV's and Hummers and Trucks on the road that require significant volumes of oil based fuels to provide daley transportation. We are now in a tactical bind in that if the oil supply falters, our economy collapses. The absolute blind stupidity of the last twenty years of our leaders have left us in a position where we either park our cars, we fight, or we turn back to the stone age. The only way out of this mess is the only way out that has ever existed and that is to move beyond our fossil fuel world and do what is necessary to develop any alternative that can see us to the end of the twenty-first century. Hydrogen Plasma Fusion is the only technology that I know of that has any promise at all of providing the quantity of energy that could keep our economy afloat with any hope of developing to the full extent of our imaginations. But it requires completely changing our transportation system. No longer would we have the personal car, but rahter a comprehensive electric rail system that could realistically usher us to where we need to be as fast as the current fastest sports car could get us there. But rahter than one 1.3 million dollar car speeding one person to their destination at 250 miles per hour, everyone could expect to arrive in a comparable time as that one person is his or her sports car could arrive. We would all have to be employeed in making the transition to the new economy. There would be no time for empire building as we would be employed in hte interest of our own survival. Can you imagine how far half a trillion dollars worth of development of hydrogen plasma fusion and all electric rail system could advance us along the way to complete replacement of oil dependent systems. Some say our future lies in the stars. If we don't very very soon make the effort to go beyond our primative oil based economy, we will never have to comtemplate the stars ever again. The oil companies, this president, the auto industry are leading us all to ruin. We need what resources we have left from the wanning days of the past age to leap into a new world that is again alive and vibrant. A world where we no longer need eight lane roads that force us to pave vast expanses of cultivatable land. A world where our technology begins to blend with the environment and compliment our diverse world rather than turning it into nothing more than an uncomfortably hot parking lot. We all have to say NO to these leaders who only imagine death and destruction. Now that they have led us into desparation, they feel that they have to imprison us so that we don't pay them back for their foolish, selfish and desctructive decisions. Retribution is not the answer. What we need to do is stop listening to these leaders that have led us down the brimstone path and begin walking in any other direction than the destructive one we are on.

					<description>Are you aware of the products of AdZone Research? Stock symbol ADZR. They have had a anti-terror search product, like you describe, that they have been trying to sell to HSD/DOD for several years. It is basically a web site crawler that traverses links, capable of searching in middle eastern native languages, and able to detect secret messages embedded in vidio/audio files by stegonography. It has an AI-based Database backend for doing sophisticated data-mining types of operations. It is a very advanced product and already "certified" by a government lab. So your recent article just further piques my interest as to why the DOD/NSA never bought this product. AdZone finally "re-targeted" their product to search message rooms for pedophiles soliciting sex with children, and is currently being sold under the name of OPPS!. It is already successful at that endeavor. Check it out. It might be of interest as background on the wider subject.
Look here: http://www.adzoneinteractive.com/
Good Luck. Jeff</description>
