E-bola

It's not quite Zombie Apocalypse scale of a disease but it's un-curable enough to quarantine as it's a fast killer. AIDS did not illicit the same response when it was identified in the 1950's and now look what has happened. Really the WHO needs to look at how it manages these things and also the particular Governments' of the world need to have planned responses in place. It all seems a bit reactionary rather than a planned response. Factually because we are treating Earth like shit, then we aught to be more prepared for Gaia-type 'immune responses' from the BioSphere.

Drone regulation.

How long will it take for terrorists to copy the military Drone model of dealing death and disturbance?

When will football stadia have to put up electronic and physical barriers to drones flying into a stadium to deliver up nasty things?

A quad copter with several gas cannisters or nail bombs would wreak havoc!

I'm all for licencing them and having FoF transponders fitted to be allowed to fly.

NHS contracts

Its funny how companies that get NHS contracts then get rich very quickly. Its fine but I'm not so sure the taxpayer us getting good value. Possibly lazy tendering decisions that are then not re quoted each year.

I wish I had some NHS cash cow cash flowing my way! :)

Scotland

Must say, Salmond has not really managed the campaign he's supposed to have been working on since he came into power. What has he been up to? Anyway as neither YES nor the NO vote is entirely clear what these votes will be FOR and what the exact Social, Economic and Political consequences will be of either, I think it's classed as a mess up. Hopefully all the 'abstentions' turn out and vote NO.
