THC (ggg), very interesting report, and very encouraging. That mirrors what I have found with my own companies. However, two things still come to mind: embedded systems and what I'll call "The Scramble."

Almost everyone was late to the game re the challenge presented by embedded systems (severe for some businesses, potentially lethal for others). These systems are pervasive throughout our economy, as Cheryl has so thoroughly reported, and in my view, they pose the most serious risk for us all.

By The Scramble, I am referring to what I see and hear in Washington. I still believe in the old adage, "Actions speak louder than words," and the actions of some in DC consistently exceed 120 decibels.

Finally, a question I keep hearing inside and outside what we (somewhat) fondly refer to as The Beltway: what about the satellites?
