This is cool coupled with disturbing. I don't like the idea that some unidentified government agency can monitor me picking my nose; isolating out of a group of a million people.
As I was not in Washington DC, but here watching on TV I guess I have nothing to worry about. However one does wonder if the government can zoom in on so many; if they can tap our phone lines and cell phones; are they above installing chips in our digital TV's to monitor our couch potato stances and conversations.
You can be sitting there in your rattiest nastiest pair of PJ's thinking you are in the privacy of your home and low and behold there is a group of people secretly mocking you on the other end of your television set; not a good thing to overly contemplate as it might make you go insane :)
You can scan and zoom to any section of the crowd. . . wait a few seconds. . . and the focus adjusts.

All they'd see is a naked black dude playing Call of Duty 4. Now, I don't think I'm sexy enough to merit having millions spent to spy on me but if they do, I am flattered :P
Did you go search for yourself in the crowd?
Hey if I knew that they were looking at me that would be one thing... but them looking as in "peeping tom" not so much...
they've already convinced most people to carry around tracking devices so they can monitor their every move. i think they call these devices cell phones.
don't even get me started on wi-fi.
i can't imagine them being all that concerned with the 'haps' here in west, but just in case i go out 3-4 times a day and give the finger to the clouds..
bp I know that they track us; the thought that they can see us too is most off putting.
Ydgrand: West is the type of town where they are likely to perform odd "rain clouds" "snow" chemical types of functions... small and not located too near a major city... keep giving the finger to the clouds though heheee
