Yeah, as long as that one-person navy stays in the docks. (grin)

Uhm, in the order they appear...
-Desecrating our money supply would not topple the economy--the BEP can always print more money. Counterfeiting would do the trick, however, since we're on a fiat money system.
-I recall the original idea as teams writing their number on the bills. Unless Dean Kamen has said "Team 1293 is t3h h4x0r," then I fail to see how that's one of his messages. (And if he did say that--shoot, even if he said anyone is t3h h4x0r--I'd love to hear a soundbyte.)
-Treason, defined by Article 3, Section 3, Clause 1 of the US Constitution:

Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort. No Person shall be convicted of Treason unless on the Testimony of two Witnesses to the same overt Act, or on Confession in open Court.

Writing one to four numbers on money doesn't even come close to that definition. And even then, it wouldn't cover the canadian/international teams!
