[extropy-chat] TECH: Fuel cells and terrorism

[Bret Kulakovich]

The same way we deal with it now - human intelligence. We rely hugely 
upon people not being able to keep their gob shut over these things. to 
the creative, everything is a weapon. Everything, at some point, burns. 
People need to keep their eyes open, and talk to those in charge when 
they see something suspicious.

If you were about to go into the bathroom with a dozen laptops, I'd 
tackle you myself!
