I didn't see the pdf at the end of your link. When I click on an article that requires pdf, my computer has a driver problem...whatever that means. Anyhow, were any of those people in your link, a common man type? One, who an everyday person could look up too and aspire to become a SCJ? Not a position for only blue bloods with impeccable ivy league credentials need apply type of person.

Very interesting. Thanks.

I find it odd, however, that the Federation of American Scientists maintains that report.
