I share your concern. As an aside, people like Ray Kurzweil who think we are headed for some sort of utopia just because the number of transistors on an integrated circuit doubles every two years (Moore's Law) ought to rethink things, because for all our remarkable advances in science, medicine, and technology, human nature if anything seems to be worsening. End of OT rant.
