Comment on Eugenic Theory & Praxis In China by austin

do you want to produce a race of robots who is to decide what traits are geneticly superior diversity is the strength of a gene pool. a society where every person had identical dna would be WEAKER and more likely to become extinc in the face of any kind of disaster natural or otherwise
not to mention that in such a world human liberty would be erased to nothing
if u could be up for 22 hours a day the mexicans would work 20 hours a day would u enjoy keeping up with them for only enough food to survive
all this while your soul rots from the inside due to lack of spiritual nourishment and servitude to the physical form

Just the first one on the list - Nanotechnologies - is the scariest threat there. Such a technology is so pen to abuse in the wrong hands.

Comment on Current nuclear threat worse than during Cold War by J.W.C.

Surely, all airports, all seaports, all points of entry to all cities, nations, everywhere, need the Customs and other staff to use geiger counters on all luggage, all cars, etc., travelling from any nation to any nations.
This would reduce the risks of nuclear terrorism.
I am surprised at this idea, I’m surprised I never thought of this, before now. It’s probably a fact already happening, but to protect all civilians and all people, animals, and life on Earth, in these days, it makes a whole lot of sense. And, in the USA, every customs station or whatever you call it at the borders between States, on the roads, should use a geiger counter against such terrorism. Trains, too, and private airports, anywhere; and use those radars right. If I may suggest something for the computer and technology experts of this world, are they already working on a radar+ system, radar + split-atom-mass detector? Surely, modern technology could be used, perhaps already the geiger counter plus radar sort of thing could mean a quite different “blip” on the screen of anything going overhead that ALSO had radioactive material. It’s not of course to shot them down, that would lead to WORSE. Some quick action with anticriticalmass technology, would render such threat down to NIL.

Somehow I feel unable to help you… tri-generational theory? Humans tend to preserve tradition better when living within the proximity of three generations. I have no clue as to where you would publish a book covering this universal phenomenon.

I’m writing because I’m trying to explore more options in attempting to get my cycles theory published. After working on the 150,000 word manuscript for three years, I’ve had a disheartening lack of interest from publishers and agents. In fact, this is what the only person (aside from my husband) to read the manuscript so far had to say:

Dear Catherine,

Many thanks for sending me the manuscript for The Tri-Generational Theory. While I find the subject fascinating and I think you have a very strong argument, I am going to pass on the project. Unfortunately, I just feel the writing is not at the commercial level required in order to compete in this crowded market. I wish you the best of luck with finding an agent.

All my best,

Abby Koons

(I believe her problem with it was that the book is basically a review of history, instead of one of those fun narrative non-fiction books that mix anecdotes with their own speculations.)

Any suggestions?

Yours,

Catherine Dong, Ph.D.

You know maybe this is the beginning of a “space war” or maybe it just happened. Either way we won’t know until its too late.

DLS instrumentation has been commercially available for quite some time now, One of the biggest manufacturers has loads of information on their website:
