Russian military leaders have expressed concern about US plans
for a national missile defense system. Will defense technology be
limited by possibilities for a strategic imbalance? Is this just SDI
all over again?

Dealing with Compelextiy
raises the question what is the difference
between running a huge organisation . v . a small

Teamwork
seems to be important. Part of the modern solution to complexity ?
Much unnecesary violence and
terror,
that's Paradise
Lost, might relate to failures to understand complex systems.

? Bwsh
slipping ....
?? What Happened to President Bush? How did the new CEO in
town go so wrong so fast???
Now times have turned rough for him. His Plan B is unpopular
to the point of absurdity. Essentially what he wants is this:
drilling and missile defense. What is he thinking? It would be
hard to find a less popular set of issues. Part of Bush's
problem (a large part) is that the Democratic Senate has taken
Bush's "New Order, In Order" plan and turned it into "New Order, Out
of Order."

Shols, Russia seems to be getting all the gigs at the moment. Had
the film festival, now the 2008
road show
.... "And
the winner is ____________
" they keep getting on our news.
Noticed a sensible American MD
Carl
Levin on The News Hour .. your Thursday show perhaps .. our
Friday night -- talking on MD and financing it - or not - and the
1972 guidelines and their meaning. Pointed out that the Bwsh
ULTIMATUM without negotiation is out of line with the treaty. Wonder
if Bwsh was a 'spoilt brat' as a kid - coming over that way as a
President.

2008: Remember ... When the world-women
went to Beijing in 1995 ... for wimmins meeting ... the locals were
told they were prostitues, they were under surveillance and harassed
by police .... the meeting that was supposed to be in Beijing was
re-located 50 miles out of the city .... 'wonder if they'll have the
games in Beijing .... then re-locate them to a tent city in the Gobi
Desert ... just like that' ...
