Not to serious up a joke too much, but I heard a great news story on therapists discussing dealing with recalibrating what a 'healthy' level of anxiety was given **waves vaguely in the air** all of this.

The government is using universities to do basic research that the private sector would never do at rates lower than the private sector would charge (thanks to the cheap labor of grad students).
Basic research has been good for this nation.

I am once again begging people to realize that the law is words on paper and is not self executing.
"That's illegal" is not and has never been synonymous with "that's impossible" or "that can't be done."
"That's illegal" means "you might get in trouble for that depending on who you are."
