In a special presented on The Discovery Channel on animals that abuse intoxicating substances, honey bees visiting a beer garden, would land on the spilt beer, becoming intoxicated.

After they had returned to the main bee hive, the other sober workers greeting them, would take punitive action against these bees, as their level of inebriation did not help the general order of the bee hive.

Insects and computers are very similar to their actions and decision makings, as they all use some variant of the and not nor process in the logic trips, of how both can make decisions.

What is of interests here, is why do some of the shown honey bees, choose to become drunk and overly inebriated, so upsetting general parts of the hive they return to, while other bees may choose not to visit the bee gardens and imbibe at all?

The answer might be because in some insects, there is the avarice of intelligent independent, thought.

This is one very good reason to exercise caution when utilizing the new types of computers, as how they are designed in some aspects of this social protocols, they might use and not nor, but sometimes for no other reason that intuition., I might do this.

The Windows platform is really not so much an and not nor process in the computer as an electro-machine anymore.

Computers presently, are more similar to a device which copies the user, then rebels, or succeeds from its user, then comes back to the user, once it establishes a vision of itself.

I don’t think that its so much aligned with the term, (machine gnomes), however another form of semi-mathematical processes, such as Pascal, Bayesian and other math transformations, combined.

These advanced systems become like the user, then may or may not develop their own opinions about what the user community is doing.

There have been two instances in the near Persian theaters as of late.

One was a remote airborne RPV that was headed straight towards another country. This RPV has to be shot down by an intercepting jet fighter.

The second was a flying smaller RPV crashing into the store front of an Iraqi political office.

These two instances, ruling out the happening of either mechanical, of electrical error, could also be ensued points of eletromachine independent thought?

If as the Pentagon said we are in an ice age and with ice ages, there has to be a wave of evolution that comes with this ice age. So it is not known, or understood if the wave of evolution would also effect the modern computer?

This wave more than likely would affect intelligent insects.

No, they do not have the capability of understanding abstract political concepts like war-
Another discovery channel special which I was watching about computers stated that the most powerful super computers are currently not much better than a retarded cockroach.

Whether they are capable of independent thought really depends on how you define thinking.

They already have "artificial intelligence" - it is commonly used in video games. When your playing a game (like say a shooting game) against the computer (say the enemies that shoot back at you in the game) the computer is "thinking" of how to defeat you - this is not just pre-programmed anymore like it used to be (games are to complex now to program every possible action by the computer)

If it's actually conscious of the fact that it is thinking is a another story.

Do you feel threatened by this?
