Agreed.

In December of 2005, for reasons entirely personal, I read every paper 
available at the Dudley Knox (Naval Post Graduate School) and the Air 
University (Maxwell AFB) Libraries mentioned in Greta Marlatt's 06/00 IO 
bibliography -- Information Warfare & Information Operations (IW/IO). A 
Bibliography, Documents, Theses & Technical Reports.

This is a snap-shot of where IO was five year ago. People who want to 
flesh out a modern IO reading list please mail me (off-list) your URLs.

In a nutshell, there were many, many operationally unsophisticated and 
more-dangerous-to-self-then-other ideas in these papers, in addition to 
alot of "Revolution in Military Affairs (RMA) Wonder-Cruft, and a lot of 
it was blatent fund-me stuff.

My two beads worth,
Eric
