Let's not forget all those pesky former Russian scientist and ranking military officers looking to make money in the new soviet style of capitalism. Did you miss the 60 minutes story about the supposedly guarded former military sites that leaked like sieves? Or perhaps a mention of another still 'communist' regime in North Korea that promotes drug sales, nuclear proliferation (e.g. to Pakistan), and general mayhem where ever it can, perk your interest? Then of course there's the great Satan fighting country of Iran who is no doubt next on our hit parade of wrong doers we'll have to deal with soon. Brace yourself. Individually, sponsored by governmental organizations, or actually RUN by them or their direct agents of influence, there will one day, in the not too distance future be a nuclear incident and poo pooing efforts to be at a minimum wary are not constructive.

Brace yourself.

Reply: How embarrassing. Of course you are right, it is Columbia, not Venezuela. At the same time, we got sort of hacked last night; someone tried to post some spam on the blog entry. The Word Press software did not post the spam but it reacts by completely erasing the entry. When I reposted the entry, I made the correction. So now the entry says "Columbia" were it ought to and that explains OB's comment. Thanks for catching that.
