If one questions the constitutionality of a law (Senate Bill 1867) that promotes indefinite detention of its citizens who are "substantially aiding" terrorists, couldn't that act be regarded as a substantial aid of terrorists in and of itself? And who is to decide this? Will there have to be secret Star Chamber courts set up perhaps modeled on the practice of renditions?
Eratosthenes first measured the circumference of the earth from the shadows cast by the sun. Today, humanity's fitness to survive will be measured by our ability to conquer that same thermonuclear fusion that casts those shadows. Thus, Prometheus will truly be unbound.
