Short week for posts maybe just two.

I still fell kind of sick, but I'm going to hang in there. My son is going some things on his computer that seem a little strange. I need to find out more about them.

First, he is doing a thing for Stanford University on nanotechnology. The thing is, it sounds like a scam to me. They need to use his, and many other computers to run scenario's of events to see what reaction they get. Well to me this is a little like taking a computer and sending all the data on it to their computer. This requires many hours of link time, and who can tell what's going on. I cant let anything have any type of control on my computer, much less while I'm away doing other things.

I went to the site and it's not Stanford, but Stanford Junior University. Now I can go to each, and they are not linked. I should look into this more. All universities should have a massive computer to do all this grunt work.
