"We knew the world would not be the same. A few people laughed, a few people cried, most people were silent. I remembered the line from the Hindu scripture, the Bhagavad-Gita. Vishnu is trying to persuade the Prince that he should do his duty and to impress him takes on his multi-armed form and says, 'Now, I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds.' I suppose we all thought that one way or another."
... and my point?
Every now and then during my day to day job and research I ponder ideas. With each idea I filter it though the above quote from Robert Oppenheimer. Why? Because some things are best left undeveloped.
Please, don't get me wrong... Change is good. Development of ideas is good. Freedom of information is good. Full disclosure is good. One thing however, trumps all of those.
This is the internet and ideas get abused.
