Oh there are some rumblings going on a recent post at slashdot. The post was regarding a news article discussing the possibility of a military draft here in the US specifically targeting computer and language specialists. I am particularly interested in a bet that may occur between two individuals with different opinions. One believes the US will call up conscripts by January 1, 2005 and another believes that it won't happen. The latter believes it so strongly that s/he's willing to wager $1000. The former was too yellow to follow suit. But the discussion is very interesting nonetheless, even without money on the line. Personally, I don't think the draft will be re-instated by January 1, 2005, but I'm excited to see if I'm wrong or not.
