	Think Tank - Memory Alpha, the Star Trek Wiki
		The "Think Tank", so-named by Captain Kathryn Janeway, was a cooperative of technologically-advanced alien intellectuals whose alleged purpose was to solve problems...
		By their own count, the Think Tank were opportunistic explorers who had solved problems for hundreds of clients, many of whom were at war.
		However, the Think Tank also demanded that Seven of Nine be transferred to them and that she become a member of their group.

	Think Tank (episode) - Memory Alpha, the Star Trek Wiki
		Janeway and Seven beam on board, where Kurros introduces them to the rest of the Think Tank; a humanoid alien whose language is too complex for the universal translator to translate, a life form that appears as a floating marine creature suspended in a fluid-filled tank, a bioplasmic life form and an artifical intelligence.
		Kurros tells her that with the Think Tank, she could become one of the greatest intellects in the galaxy.
		Subspatial charges could force the Think Tank's vessel into the open, but they'd need to find the ship first, which is almost impossible with their advanced technology.

	Think-Tank Confidential - WSJ.com
		Think tanks are identified in the public mind as agents of a particular political viewpoint.
		To be sure, think tanks -- at least those on the right -- do not attempt to disguise their political affinities in the manner of the (invariably left-leaning) universities.
		Think tanks serve as storehouses of ideas, patiently developed and nurtured, waiting for the crisis when practical men are desperately seeking a new approach, or for the inspired leader who sees the possibilities of action before the crisis arrives.

	What Is A Think Tank? \| NCPA
		A think tank is an organization that sponsors research on specific problems, encourages the discovery of solutions to those problems, and facilitates interaction among scientists and intellectuals in pursuit of these goals.
		Think tanks without walls typically have no endowments and are less well-funded than older organizations that try to assemble everyone under one roof.
		Think tanks tend to be graded based on their success in solving real world problems.

	AEI - Short Publications - Think Tank Confidential
		The most gratifying moments in the think tank world come when ambitious ideas, politically out of the question at first, work their way through academic and professional debate, get noticed by public officials and legislators, and then are adopted as law or policy.
		Think tank mavens like to point to episodes such as these as evidence that "ideas have consequences," but we know better than anyone how partial and contingent is the role of ideas in the march of politics.
		A think tank is not a business, but it is not inconsistent with a think tank's distinctive ethos and purposes to imagine that it might become, in the manner of a business firm, organic and self-perpetuating.

		In reality, many think tanks are little more than public relations fronts, usually headquartered in state or national seats of government and generating self-serving scholarship that serves the advocacy goals of their industry sponsors; in the words of Yellow Times.org columnist John Chuckman, "phony institutes where ideologue~propagandists pose as academics...
		This is no accident, as one of the important functions of think tanks is to provide a backdoor way for wealthy business interests to promote their ideas or to support economic and sociological research not taking place elsewhere that they feel may turn out in their favor.
		Think tanks are like universities minus the students and minus the systems of peer review and other mechanisms that academia uses to promote diversity of thought.

		Although there were some examples of think tanks such as the Foreign Policy Institute (FPI) and the Marmara Foundation prior to 2000, the Turkish think tank scene really began to be taken into consideration with the foundation of the Center for Eurasian Strategic Studies (ASAM) in 2000.
		Another factor influencing the growth of the think tank sector in 2000-2004 was the increasing significance of public opinion in Turkish foreign policy.

	The Think Tank Gap
		The most recent study of think tank growth, from the Foreign Policy Research Institute, shows that while the U.S. has 1776—nice symbolism—think tanks, Western Europe as a whole has only 1198, and the UK is home to 283 of them, the most of any of the countries surveyed.
		In the Anglo-American world, good think tanks are entrepreneurial, but think tanks as a class are reactive: you establish one when you're losing, not when you're winning, and you do so because you think it's possible to challenge the new political establishment.
		U.S. that looks the gloomiest: if the financial rise of the liberal think tanks means that the left has finally figured out that the key to success is supporting people and ideas over the long term, the conservative movement could be losing an edge it has relied on since Reagan's victory in 1980.

	BBC NEWS \| UK \| Magazine \| Just what is a think tank?
		With the Peter Hain funding row, think tanks are in the news.
		In its British usage, the think tank refers primarily to organisations that conduct research with a view to causing political policies to change.
		Surely, the main purpose of many think tanks is to float ideas in public without the politicians taking any responsibility for them (if the public doesn't like them) and also to put forward ideas that are so over the top, that the actual policy doesn't look so bad in comparison.

	Study Finds First Drop in Think Tank Cites
		The latest survey of think tank citations—which is based on appearances in major newspapers and TV and radio transcripts that appear in the Nexis database—found that 40 percent of such citations in 2005 were to conservative or center-right groups, 47 percent were to centrist groups and only 13 percent were to center-left or progressive groups.
		Overall, the 27,229 citations that the 25 most widely quoted think tanks garnered in 2005 was a 10 percent decline from 2004, the decline was 23 percent for left-leaning think tanks vs. 8 percent for right-leaning groups and 7 percent for centrists.
		Other think tanks new to the study this year were the Employee Benefit Research Institute, the healthcare-oriented Kaiser Family Foundation and the Lexington Institute, a conservative organization with a focus on military issues.

	Think Tank Sources Fall, but Left Gains Slightly
		Overall, the 27,877 citations that the 25 most-quoted think tanks garnered was a 4 percent decline from 2005.
		Although 2006 was an election year, which normally boosts the citations of think tanks like the Center for Public Integrity (which increased 29 percent over 2005), the media seemed to favor foreign policy—related think tanks in 2006, suggesting the salience of Iraq as an issue.
		The fates of two think tanks in 2006 may serve to illustrate the importance of the Iraq issue.

		I think it should also be noted that this is an extremely complex problem, and looking to make any of these transitions independently of any of the others is impossible.
		In our think tank class we are examining the question “How can we make environmentalism the norm?” We spent the first few weeks discussing many possible ways of trying to tackle this question (as you can see on our forum).
		I think saying we are amazed at the incredible pace at which this is happening wouldn’t even come close to describing it.
