re: #425 researchok

That was my point. I said verifiable.

I believe we are obligated to do whatever we can so as to prevent another catastrophe.

Will it always work? I don’t know. But there are times it will work.

When you say we’ll do “whatever we can”, that’s actually pretty freaky

“Well, we MIGHT be able to prevent another 9/11 if we capture this guy’s kids and start lowering them inch by inch into acid, he’ll probably tell us some good info, we think! I mean, we’re the United States! We’re like, never wrong!”

yeah, sorry, don’t buy it, if you can’t prevent the catastrophe without being vicious human monsters? Then you don’t get to prevent the catastrophe.
