Young Grandmothers Online to Fight Terrorism

An Illinois man spends hours a day fighting terrorism at his computer. A. Aaron Weisburd tells The Washington Post that he and his network of volunteers have taken down as many as a thousand threatening websites:
"Weisburd is helped by a loosely organized group of volunteers. Among them are techies from Silicon Valley, Middle East experts, and more than a few women he described as 'young grandmothers with high-speed Internet in rural areas.'"
Go, young grandmothers!
