> Technology can be used in many ways, and I believe it has no inherent "evilness" to it; it's all in how it gets used. Make that "science" and I agree, but technology is all about specific uses. What exactly is a non-evil way to use a microdrone with lethal armament?

Pest control? :-) We're talking about a class of technology here anyway, yes the specific instances tend to obviously be for good or evil, but a class of technology has a wide range of applications. Also, I think you could argue that improving military technology so the military only murder specifically those people they meant to murder (I hate these 'collateral damage'-type weasel words) is a good thing.
