I thought I read, not too long ago, that he was kind of hell-bent on getting either the military or US govt. or NY state or some such, to be guided by him on adopting high tech for "their" benefit? Was I right, and if so, what happened about that? Fizzled out? Almost sure I read something to that effect, either in a TechCrunch kind of site or some online newspaper like NY Times. Likely not more than some months ago. Then why the sudden Cyprus thing? Edit: Did the obvious, googled - for "eric schmidt advise us military on tech". First 3 hits indicate I was right.
