"Delay is natural to a writer. He is like a surfer—he bides his time. Waits for the perfect wave on which to ride in. He waits for the surge (of emotion? of strength? of courage?) that will carry him along." (E.B. White, The Paris Review Interviews, 1969)

Corporate Sclerosis
So, it appears that our terrorist watch "list" (it's really a database) is on the verge of collapse. It looks a lot like corporations on the government dole aren't as good at cooking up solutions as they often claim. Seems like citizens should be demanding more competition for government contracts, more transparent representation (a.k.a. less lobbyist access) and a more robust public debate over the things that affect the public.
