Virus?

A reader reports receiving a warning from anti-virus software about a malicious program called “inst32.exe” after visiting this blog. Has anyone else had a similar experience? If we’re linking to a bad site I’d like to know so that I can remove the link. Thanks.

Crowdsourcing a Presentation: The History of Warfare

I am going to be giving a talk to a group of undergraduates on the history of warfare. I have total carte blanche to talk about it anyway I want. I think I will cover past and present and various future predictions. I have about an hour to talk.

My request to ChicagoBoyz readers: leave a comment below, preferably in the form of an outline, top-line roman numerals and second line capital letters, showing what you think I should talk about.

Remember, I have to get the entire thing into one hour!

I want you to give me your first cut, off the top of your head, without a lot of research. Just type up the main topics you think I should hit.

When I have prepared the outline I am actually going to use, I will post it.

UPDATE: Shlok Vaidya posted a very interesting proposed outline. Check it out.
