You can just go off and do some damn good scientific work and then publish. You don't really need permission to do science, if what you are doing is good work. The college environment just gives you time and space and environment in which t

By that argument the KLF were building value when they made a million quid with the express intention of setting it all on fire. And they possibly were, in artistic terms. However, if we are talking about people who are just shifting money

I like the fact that they are open sourcing the tech though, perhaps someone else can improve it so it doesn't go on fire.

You are assuming that there is an argument behind it. That struts and frets his hour upon the stage. And then is heard no more: it is a tale. Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, Signifying nothing.

I'd rather have some fascists in the government than have the whole government end up as fascist in the attempt to make sure that they are absolutely excluded. As for not wanting a democracy, what would you prefer?
