I'm in Ur Base, Killin' Ur Presidentz

It appears that our own Dan Arey has concocted a scheme wherein "the terrorists" could use an MMO to plot a dastardly scheme.

I put this on par with Die Hard 4 for "incredibility" in both senses of the word:
Matt Farrell: Jesus Christ. It's a fire sale.
John McClane: What?
Matt Farrell: It's a fire sale.
Deputy Director Miguel Bowman: Hey! We don't know that yet.
Taylor: And it's a myth anyway. It can't be done.
Matt Farrell: Oh, it's a myth? Really? Please tell me she's only here for show and she's actually not in charge of anything.
John McClane: What's a fire sale?
Matt Farrell: It's a three-step... it's a three-step systematic attack on the entire national infrastructure. Okay, step one: take out all the transportation. Step two: the financial base and telecoms. Step three: You get rid of all the utilities. Gas, water, electric, nuclear. Pretty much anything that's run by computers which... which today is almost everything. So that's why they call it a fire sale, because everything must go.
Epic.
