[Christopher Knowles]

As a former Air Force intelligence analyst, writer on China's PLA 
cyber-hacking Unit 61398 in Shanghai, and student of their industries 
surreptitiously installing extra rice grain-sized microprocessors on 
motherboards from Silicon Valley manufactured by Chinese subcontracted 
companies overseen by Beijing, I can confirm that this facetious 
suggestion is indeed a reality.  Read "Patriots on the Watchtower: The 
Second American Revolution".  Chris Knowles, N1CAK
