Psychic Terror Network

For those of you pronosticators who want to get in on the ground floor of the Psychic Terror Network (a.k.a. the Policy Analysis Market), here's the home of dot-com Homeland Security. Its homepage is appropriately reminiscent of the Heaven's Gate Cult website, another modern pseudo-religion (their story here).

The Policy Analysis Market is cosponored by DARPA, the Defense Advanced Research Projects, and a spin-off of The economist magazine, confirming my suspicion that this is the cult of the capitalists at work. It's Adam Smith's The Wealth of Nations here: there's a "guiding hand" to completely unfettered markets that allows them to meet people's needs better than individual intelligence ever could. Forget the CIA, we'll use internet surfers! They'll want to make money and they can do our intelligence gathering for us better than those desk jockeys in Langley! This Psychic Terror Stock exchange is the perfect marriage of Nineties dot-com can-do, eighties market-uber-alles and Seventeen-Seventies God-guides-the-rich Calvinism.

UPDATe: We're too late. Pentagon canceling Pyschic Terror Network under the weight of ridicule they've received to the idea. Maybe the Pentagon should hire Nancy Reagan's astrologer for their terror alerts instead (actually they should hire her great webmaster, whose great design sure beats that of the Heaven's Gate dropout they used).
