Steve Smith wrote I've suggested many times, that from now on, I should enter TSA security wearing absolutely nothing but a Speedo... It would be an act of what I call *white whale watching* for the other sad passengers who had to witness this. Maybe we could start a fad, a performance art practice, street theater of sorts if you will! Wonder if the organization Improv Everywhere can coordinate an Event, via cellphone, across the US. In TSA lines everywhere, people strip voluntarily. Further hijinks ensue.

I mean, seriously. What if?
Maybe ambient modeling can be involved, get an NSF grant, trace ripple effects outward, and also set up a get out of jail fund if needed. On Nov 20, 2010, at 7:31 PM, Victoria Hughes wrote:

You left out the word "emergent". NSF now has a requirement that any grant application delivered from a FRIAM affiliate must have the word "EMERGENT" clearly printed on the return receipt.

Doug !
OK... so it's an EMERGENTcy! Push it through a DHS grant/contract, or better yet (for your entertainment) DTRA! Did you know I just collected another $200 (Much more, but metaphorically/allegorically relevant) from Pete Nanos, passing *GO* this week? I'm about to roll the dice again! Doubles! Roll again! Tomorrow, just before Sundown? Sunroom on the Bosque? Boulliette? Apologies to 95% of FRIAM who haven't a *clue* WTF we are talking about! LANL-the-rest-of-the-story!

Deal, Amigo. Let's go off line to arrange the lurid details.
[That ought to pique their emergent interest. OT: I have a bet with myself that I can't use the word emergent at least twice a day. So far I'm winning...].
