The list is stupid because like I said its got a name and a yes/no. If they really want a list then they should have more information. So if someone on that list has the name John Smith then I guess we should find every John Smith and kill them or throw them out in the hope that its the right John Smith? The solution to the problem is not removing anyone that has a name that sounds suspicious. One of the most appalling examples is a researcher from Saudi Arabia who couldn't come to a convention because his name was on the list. So in your mind all the Muslim students working on the NASA projects shouldn't be allowed to. [very bigoted statement]If they don't then this country won't advance because I have yet to see more than a handful of good researchers in the CS field who aren't foreign.[/bigoted statement]
Most of the money that comes into research in the US comes from foreigners. One would really hate to see which shit hole this country goes down if all of them were asked to leave.
