Standard Disclaimer: I'm not a programmer, coder and anything such.  I
can barely spell 'geek' for that matter <g>.

The idea that discussing fill-in-the-blank potential threat(s) may
actually cause someone(s) to craft and execute the evil act is pretty
much absurd in my opinion.  The evil doers already know what they want
to do and there are far more knowledgable sites/lists to obtain such
information other than this list.

Not to diminish George's comments, but I'm sure that his musings are
not original and that others have already given consideration to the
matters he has pointed out.  Even if George's thoughts are original,
would not the sharing of those thoughts/ideas be more pro-active
instead of not discussing them?
