I was stunned to learn that the organization was started and is now led by a man without a major technical background. Its awesome capabilities were developed on "a shoestring budget."

I am a big fan of data mining. In other words, I love systems that obtain massive amounts of data and distill out what is relevant. This can include searching social media, voice communications, and many other sources.
