Doc notes that the Pentagon is pulling their plans to build a futures market based on terror and other world events. My guess? It doesn't matter what the Pentagon does now, I suspect that they were just trying to seed a future market with ideas about a futures market. I'm willing to bet that there are two smart guys in a college dorm somewhere that already have half of their first generation code to do exactly what the Pentagon describes - and somehow, they will make a fortune doing it.
