(单词翻译)

   But people won't decide to do it until they recognize the need for it, and that's the problem that we have right now.  但是直到人民意识到真正的需要,才会决定去做,这就是现在的问题所在。

  So there's been plenty of people, plenty of us have been quietly arguing that we should have this independent system for years,  因此大量的人,大量的专家们多年来一直在静静地争论我们应该有这么一套独立的系统,
  but it's very hard to get people focused1 on plan B when plan A seems to be working so well. 但很难让人们在互联网运行良好时,去关注B计划。
  So I think that, if people understand how much we're starting to depend on the Internet,  因此我认为,如果人们认识到我们逐渐有多么地依赖互联网,
  and how vulnerable2 it is, we could get focused on just wanting this other system to exist,  互联网是多么的脆弱,我们能够着眼于希望这样的系统存在,
  and I think if enough people say, "Yeah, I would like to use it, I'd like to have such a system," then it will get built.  并且我认为,如果足够多的人说:“是的,我想使用它,我愿意有这样一个系统”,它就会得以建立。
  It's not that hard a problem. It could definitely3 be done by people in this room. 这不是一个难题。甚至可以由在座的某位完成。
  And so I think that this is actually, of all the problems you're going to hear about at the conference,  因此我认为,实际上,在会议上将会听到的所有问题,
  this is probably one of the very easiest to fix. So I'm happy to get a chance to tell you about it. 极有可能存在一种非常容易的解决方案。我很高兴有机会告诉你们这一点。
  Thank you very much. 非常感谢。
