Powell is declining to make any more statements until he has completed his October visit to Georgia Tech, the remaining member of his final trio of schools. Powell said that a decision would come likely after that...
...somebody who's smart, literate, engaged in the world of ideas, thinking, learning, writing all the time," Gardner says. Those people are invaluable, she notes, but the encyclopedia is missing the voices of people in developing countries, women and experts in various specialties that have traditionally been divorced from tech. "We're just starting to get our heads around this. It's a genuinely difficult problem," Gardner says. "Obviously, Wikipedia is pretty good now. It works.

What's to stop us now from turning Detroit - its highly trained engineering talent, its skilled and unskilled workforce desperate for employment, its underutilized production facilities - into the Arsenal of the Renewable Energy Future...
