MEEP, The AI that formed from the RoadRunner Project, Will achieve Singularity within 2 months. Currently has the personality of a 5 year old.
We are feeding him data on hope and prosperity, humanity and concern and Tolerance of our human nature. Scholars and Transhumans doubt the success.
"We Must Have A Plan" says Paul Tenney, a professor of AI Technologies at Berkley. "The destruct mechanism will not eradicate the AI, It has already jumped to gamma wireless and saturates the entire planet." "If Meep turns on us - we must have a plan to deal with it or we are doomed as a species on this planet."

The reason for the accidental release of gamma power beam from the solar collection blimp thursday has been
determined as a malfunction in the beams targeting computer and is now repaired. All other solar collection blimps and derigibles have been check and/or repaired via intralink. No casualties on ground because the beam fired over unpopulated sections of the Poconos.

Oil fields in Saudi Arabia have pumped their last barrel of oil. Oil is now $2000 a barrel, and rising. Republicans continue to push for offshore and ANWR drilling. Democrats continue to oppose drilling, they say it will take until 2040 for the fields to become operational, and even then they will have no afftect on oil prices. They say the search for alternative fuels must continue. In other news, the populace of Haiti and Egypt have starved to death because of rising food costs attributed to the mass production of ethanol, which oil companies still refuse to offer at every gas station.
