It erases all data and shorts out all "Data Readers" and is no longer in the realm of Alien weapons, but a living reality in many labs! We are much more vulnerable than that! China has invaded the U.S. grid and possibly controls most of it, and certainly monitors key parts of it! Remember! Asian computers and computer experts are not "Microsoft Crippled" and are well able to do things Americans don't even know about, having been fed Microsoft's 'Pablum" all these years! Children in India write gaming programs sold on American markets Goddammit! We are so far behind, so "coddled' so spoiled, and so slow and indifferent because our propagandists have convinced us we are superior, that we no longer even challenge the notion!Keep in mind: There are more post graduates with IQ's over 130 in China that speak at least two languages, than there are high school students in the U.S.A., Drop-outs included! P.S. Chinese and Indians don't take summers off either, and they are hungry, folks, very hungry!Tune in to sdome Chinese sites on the net for the truth! You will be absolutely stunned and blown away! P.S. China does little to enforce Microsoft's patent B.S. and a working black market copy of anything by Microsoft, or any other firm is readily available on Shanghai streets for pennies! Yes! goddamn! pennies! They all have it, every damned one of them, and for almost free! They don't have to pay like us!If they invade electronically it will be on stolen copies of our technology - The Irony! Fear the electron Pulse weapon!

For that matter, since when is a single character not data?
