I can't remember reading any of these erratically-published email newsletters before, but I suppose I must have received them. A few interesting links in there (like NASA's bionic eyes), but it does give the impression that most of The Arlington Institute's scanning is done at the BBC's Sci/Tech news page. However, despite its lack of wow factor and its interminable length, the newsletter does serve as a useful summary of how mainstream events fit into a series of interesting trends.
