| ________________________________________ [Mar 23,2012 3:03pm - josh_hates_you ""] I listened to a segment on npr about this yesterday. The NSA claims they dont have the right to intercept transmissions. According to a defense attorney the NSA uses it's own legal definition of terms that you wont find in a dictionary. For example their description of intercepting something is having it viewed and reported on by an agent. Using this definition they have the right to store any information for future use. As long as they dont read the contents they dont need a warrant to store the info but once a warrant is served they can then use and read the info. So much for having the right to remain silent. Anything you have already said can now be used against you in a court of law. |
| _________________________________________ [Mar 23,2012 6:30pm - Headbanging_Man ""] Plus if they want at it faster, sans warrant, they just have Canadian or British agents do the intercepts then report it as an inter-agency info-share. |

If by dazzled you mean fascinated, then yes I am dazzled by the infinite possibilities of the world we do not yet understand. I fail to see your logic here. If you haven't already, read Carl Sagan's 'The Demon-Haunted World: Science as a Candle in the Dark' and then listen to this again. The interviewer continually leads this conversation into the sensational, and Tyson allows him to do so. Everyone knows that our fundamental understanding of the universe is based on mathematics; mathematics explains everything. But the language of mathematics, or more specifically, of equations (notation, syntax) is man-made and extremely limited. So it should be no great shock that equations used in computer code are also involved in string theory. Look up fractals. Oooooh! |

No, there's 'layman's terms' and there's sensationalism, which currupts presentation of fact, misleads the layman and trades rigor for gosh-golly-WOW!! |
