More about today's Daily Outrage:

It was recently reported that: "Effort is underway in state legislature to keep workings of VA Fusion Center secret; Privacy groups fight on."

Well.

I like fusion. Especially the Thai/Indian coconut curry. And cold fusion is the secret to the Energy Crisis, now and forevermore, correct? Fusion is our only hope, our only future: it's all we're left with now that every single original idea has already been thought. NOW, everything new must be a mixture of other things. Hybrid. Fusion. Same thing.

But a Fusion Center? Something tells me that's not a stainless steel & neon sound-stage where iron chefs make peanut curry for the next Food Network cuisine-o-rama. Something tells me this type of fusion is closer to the Cold variety...(and when was that "invented", hmmm? could this have something to do with our rogue planet and its out-sized influence? but that's another post...) THIS fusion squirreled away in VA is also a cheap and abundant source of energy, but not the good kind, oh no. This cheap and abundant source of energy is your/our Information flowing to and fro -- a gold mine of data that once properly harnessed, will provide endless power to keep the capitalist engine and the security drive-train humming.

Why couldn't fusion be used to blend the best of all worlds instead of the worst?

(I'm hoping the past will show us the way to the vision)
