Manifesto

[Ed Jewett]

Thanks for the clarity, Jan. I don't particular like posting what is obviously a sales pitch that shows the gloss but not the inside truth, and Wired/Defense is often (if not always) a mouthpiece for the US DOD and DARPA but, on the other hand, it sometimes is the only way those of us on the outside, up in the cheap seats, can have a clue as to what is really going on way behind the scenes. And, as I am sure you appreciate, if we are seeing it addressed in a public outlet in late 2009, it's probably been in development for at least a year, maybe more, and even already in use somewhere in some dark hell-hole of a corner.
