Barbar goes mobile

Check out this latest innovation for tracking elephants who could be heading toward local villagers' crops. The technique is called 'geofencing' and my friend Barbar wonders why it can't also be used on Taliban/al-Qaeda members as a first step in shutting down Bagram and Guantanamo. Alternately, my buddy Mohammed wonders if they could start putting them on Israeli settlers in order to keep them away from Palestinians trying to harvest their olives. Of course, technology is only good as our imaginations... where o where should we confine Dick Cheney to after January 20th? The intestines of a West Virginia coal mine might suffice.
