Mary Jander Great overview of PSIM, Steve. Many thanks. I am not surprised to see that third party providers of security services, including cloud services, are not quite trusted. Still, their contributions...

Resurgent phoenix That is the beauty of America , "Freedom of Religion" or "no religion". I agree Religion should not be forced on people. Jan spoke of Roots of Empathy as a possible solution. ...
Mary Jander The RFID chip safeguard is an incremental step toward better gun control. IMO, any small step is an improvement.
Mary Jander Arming teachers tells students that we live in an armed camp, ready for attack at any moment. That is not supposed to be the basis of a free society.
Mary Jander Regarding the issue of moral training: In Canada and parts of Europe, a program called Roots of Empathy is conducted in schools to teach children the value of compassion for others. It is secular,...
stotheco Here's the old video games and morality question brought up once more. I find it's always brought up when something so tragic and violent like this happens. It's understandable, too, but like Mary,...

Pablo Valerio Nicole, the European in me doesn't hold back on certain issues ;-)
Mary Jander While I agree that violent games and media are teeming these days, I do recall that when I was a child (and yes, that was a LONG time ago), toy guns were a required accessory for small boys. My kid...

Security may not be the first thing that comes to mind when thinking about global urbanization, yet future cities will only be as smart and sustainable as they are secure.
