What the media always overlooks: GPS syncs almost all digital
telecommunications systems. If GPS died, voice & Internet wouldn't be
too far behind.

Most sync systems have high quality oscillator systems as core to
their signal distribution, but that only lasts days/weeks without GPS
to keep *everything* synced.

Not being able to use your vehicle's map system is likely less
important...

We need to get this information out to Obama. Maybe he should be
tossing billions of dollars at the gps infrastructure instead of
spending that money on failing enterprises like outmoded/outdated
motor vehicle technologies.

Does that mean the guy in charge is going to give it the needed
attention? I'm sure his desk is flooded with *stuff* from GAO, FBI,
CIA, NSA, and every other organization on a daily basis.

It could have just as well come from the Air Force or Pentagon. Does
that mean it's got the immediate attention of this *Havard-educated*
neophyte? For all we know, he can't screw a nut onto a bolt. At
least, we have yet to see him do so.

Of course not.
He has a chief of staff (with lots of underlings)
to decide what he sees.
Everything is filtered through the bureaucracy,
