No problem. As you can see by the replies you received on this thread there is a tremendous amount of frustration with anything associated with government. Frankly, I feel the same way but I also realize some things do get done by some agencies and DARPA is one of those.
DARPA and ONR have the greatest success of technology that currently impossible to possible.DARPA looks beyond todays known needs and requirements.Three huge success by DARPA was the development of missile defense and Global Positioning and the Internet.DARPA created the foundation technologies in automatic target recognition, space based sensing, propulsion, and materials that were transferred to the Strategic Defense Initiative Organization (SDIO), later known as the Ballistic Missile Defense Organization (BMDO), now titled the Missile Defense Agency (MDA).
