Good idea. Let us know what you come up with. <smirk>
Next, do the same for US government departments and agencies.

     << U.S. government departments and agencies, meanwhile, have stripped a
wide range of documents from Web sites because of perceived threats to such
critical systems as pipelines, water supply stations and power plants.>>

Do the same for the Bureau of Transportation and Geographic Information
Services.

<<The Transportation Department’s Bureau of Transportation Statistics has cut
off public access to databases used for mapping because of stepped-up concern
about U.S. transportation infrastructure.
       “At this time, we are only providing geospatial data to federal, state,
and local government officials,” said a notice on the bureau’s Web site,
www.bts.gov/gis/. >>

Useless hypotheses, etc.:
 consciousness, phlogiston, philosophy, vitalism, mind, free will, qualia,
analog computing, cultural relativism, GAC, Cyc, Eliza, cryonics, individual
uniqueness, ego, human values, scientific relinquishment

We move into a better future in proportion as science displaces superstition.
