SOME TIME THIS MONTH PRESIDENT BUSH SIGNED A BILL THAT ALLOWS SPENDING OF NEARLY 33 BILLION DOLLARS IN TECHNOLOGY. IT IS QUITE POSSIBLE MOST OF US MISSED THIS NEWS ITEM AS IT WAS BARELY REPORTED. IT IS NEWS THAT SHOULD GIVE TECHIES HOPE. ALSO PROVIDES HOPE FOR ALTERNATIVE ENERGY FANS. IT ALSO HOPES TO ATTRACT GLOBAL TECH TALENT. PERHAPS THIS WILL REDUCE THE BRAIN DRAIN. MOST IMPORTANT PERHAPS THERE IS A RECOGNITION THAT IT MAY BE TIME TO RESPECT THE NERDS AND MAKE MORE OF THEM FOR THE GOOD OF THIS COUNTRY
Today, President Bush Signed Into Law The America Creating Opportunities To Meaningfully Promote Excellence In Technology, Education, And Science Act (America COMPETES). This bill shares the goals of the President's American Competitiveness Initiative (ACI), a comprehensive strategy to keep America the most innovative nation in the world by strengthening our scientific education and research, improving our technological enterprise, attracting the world's best and brightest workers, and providing 21st century job training.
