How'd it go? Did the world beat a path to your door, asking how they
could help?
What? No one noticed? Crickets?
It has been well publicized that RSA failed. They need to be publicly
burned. That publicity makes is easier, and more important, for them to
be burned. (That's a nice accident, doesn't always work out that way.)
Go ahead and come up with ways the world could be made better. But
triage them against practical reality.
