The idea of achieving security through national armament is, at the present state of military technique, a disastrous illusion.
Albert Einstein

Science has gone a long way toward helping man to free himself from the burden of hard labor yet, science itself is not a liberator. It creates means, not goals. It is up to men to utilize those means to achieve reasonable goals.
