This Wired News article (found in a quick Google search - this link is to Google's cached version) explains what the NSSG (aka Hart-Rudman Commission) was. http://www.google.com/search?q=cache:_Fet3XB-Wn0:www.wired.com/news/news/technology/story/18905.html+%22National+Security+Study+Group%22&hl=en It appears to be a sort of think tank cum PR project that allegedly solicited input online from the public on how to define national security. (What a bizarre project - you have to wonder what more there is to the agenda.) Those headings (Institutional Reform, Securing the National Homeland, Recapitalizing America's Science and Education) might be bulletin board topics or something like that, which would make them sound a little less sinister, I guess. It's still very strange that not only is the site down, but Google's cached "snapshot" of it appears to be blocked in some way. I've never seen that before. --- brian carroll <[email protected]> wrote: > > > searching for the Declaration of Independence, i > first > typed us.gov and no such domain. then, > www.usa.gov, and > something (in my sense) unsual happened. there was > a > domain: http://www.usa.gov which was automatically > redirected to the website: http://www.nssg.gov/ > which > is a site for the 'U.S. Commission on National > Security > /21st Century'. oddly enough, the website is > broken... ===== [email protected] "Life is a banquet, and most poor suckers are starving." -- Auntie Mame ____________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
