And I would add a set of technically and politically aware translators since lawyers and engineers speak different languages. (And of course that was your function and my function at the FCC.) And the lobbyists work at making sure nobody really understands the true picture. People who can be both objective and understands both sides are extremely rare and valuable.

TECH GURUS EDUCATE BUSH. Bush met with tech-sector CEO's this week for policy advice, and got a unanimous answer: we need more investment in K-12 science and math, to create a technically educated workforce. Bush proclaimed the issue a priority.For archives see: http://www.interesting-people.org/ +-------------------------------------------------------------+ | This message may contain confidential and/or privileged | | information.
