Could it be this simple: scientists have found a cure for cancer, but since there is no money to be made from it, they do not research it any further?
Well, that is basically what this guy is telling us, and what Piet apparently has picked up on. Let's hope they are right and that the pressure of free media can create a breakthrough. But what if these scientists are wrong? Or worse: what if this is just a big hoax?
Will the 'collective intelligence' of the web in its 2.0 state reveal the truth? Or will it be proved that the World Wide Web is just "a vessel of quasi-religious longing" like Nicholas Carr once stated? I am curious...
