*gulp*

Thanks (I think) to Zoe Brain for pointing out this little gem (empahasis mine):

A supercomputer capable of running a software simulation of the human brain doesn't exist yet. Researchers would require at least a machine with a computational capacity of 36.8 petaflops and a memory capacity of 3.2 petabytes -- a scale that supercomputer technology isn't expected to hit for at least three years.

Leave your own politician joke in the comments.
