There's nothing wrong with exchanging information. A dear friend of mine coordinates a committee of research scientists on technology matters under the auspices of the National Research Council. They have a gang Skype exchange on a regular basis--I think on a monthly basis--in which there are 20 or 30 research scientists from across the country discussing things on Skype. I think they have an annual meeting at which they get together.
I'm not saying “don't meet” or “don't exchange ideas”, but I'm saying that the emergence of a--quote, unquote--national strategy is a fiction. There won't be a national strategy. There will be strategies related to the economies and the transportation systems on the ground that would benefit.
