Well, there goes the franchise. We quibble about the strange US fascination for constructing redundant telephone poles for our warring telecoms, the tax on our economic health of anæmic "high speed," about the flow of treasure into sands and mountains and out the doors of WalMart, but r&d has always been the hole card, the basis of "American genius."
