Welcome to 2005.

And to pick up on a theme of Re-imagine: “We are not prepared!” Regardless of the might and advanced technology of Superpowers, the power of determined (fanatic!) individuals to disrupt nations and wreck havoc on individuals in vast numbers has never beeen higher. On the good side, that’s the ability of consumers or irate citizens to band together in a flash on the Internet. On the bad side it’s New York and Madrid and London.
