When reporters identify

things they think were warnings over 200 days after an event and begin to connect dots that are now clearly outlined in history, what is their motive? Plenty has been written about the CIA, FBI, NSA and other government agencies and the ways they are finding to "mine their databases" for better information.

What do these reporters hope to find? Do they expect even the most jaded Democrat to believe that a Republican administration knew something that could have stopped 9-11? This whole line of inquiry is somewhat sickening.

This may be a job for Glenn's www.isbn.nu!

Wolfram's "A New Kind of Science" is #1 on Amazon.   Very impressive.  Given that most of his work was done with Mathematica, I suspect that sales of that tool will go up sharply too.  There is a good article in Wired on the book. [John Robb's Radio Weblog]
