"Oh Shit! ... GMO Food Sterilizes People ... And It's Really A Form of Population Control?"
"There was of course no way of knowing whether you were being watched at any given moment. How often, or on what system, the Thought Police plugged in on any individual wire was guesswork. It was even conceivable that they watched everybody all the time. But at any rate they could plug in your wire whenever they wanted to. You had to live—did live, from habit that became instinct—in the assumption that every sound you made was overheard, and, except in darkness, every movement scrutinized."
Alexander King, Bertrand Schneider - founder Club of Rome - The First Global Revolution, pp.104-105
"In searching for a new enemy to unite us, we came up with the idea that pollution, the threat of global warming, water shortages, famine and the like would fit the bill ... All these dangers are caused by human intervention and it is only through changed attitudes and behaviour that they can be overcome. The real enemy, then, is humanity itself."

IS THIS LITTLE GUY A PERSON?
The founders of the American state understood that the proper functioning of a democracy required an educated electorate. It is this understanding that justifies a system of public education and that led slaveholders to resist the spread of literacy among their chattels. But the meaning of "educated" has changed beyond recognition in two hundred years. Reading, writing, and arithmetic are no longer sufficient to decide on public policy. Now we need quantum mechanics and molecular biology. The knowledge required for political rationality, once available to the masses, is now in the possession of a specially educated elite, a situation that creates a series of tensions and contradictions in the operation of representative democracy.

"We should hire three or four colored ministers, preferably with social-service backgrounds, and with engaging personalities. The most successful educational approach to the Negro is through a religious appeal. We don’t want the word to go out that we want to exterminate the Negro population. and the minister is the man who can straighten out that idea if it ever occurs to any of their more rebellious members."

"A total population of 250-300 million people, a 95% decline from present levels, would be ideal."
Lord Bertrand Russell, The Impact of Science On Society (Routledge Press: New York, 1951).
"At present the population of the world is increasing at about 58,000 per diem. War, so far, has had no very great effect on this increase, which continued throughout each of the world wars.. War has hitherto been disappointing in this respect, but perhaps bacteriological war may prove effective. If a Black Death could spread throughout the world once in every generation, survivors could procreate freely without making the world too full. The state of affairs might be unpleasant, but what of it?"
Denmark Vesey For President 08
1. Troops Out Of Iraq Immediately. Like By Monday. 2. Money Owed To Haliburton and War Contractors Be Given Directly To The Iraqi People 3. Complete Electoral Reform 4. No Corporate Conglomerate Will Be Allowed To Control More Than 5% Of News Market 5. Federal Reserve Abolished 6. For-Profit Prison Industry Abolished
*George Orwell (1903-1950) English novelist, critic
Men can only be happy when they do not assume that the object of life is happiness... If liberty means anything at all, it means the right to tell people what they do not want to hear... The great enemy of clear language is insincerity... The quickest way of ending a war is to lose it... To see what is in front of one's nose requires a constant struggle... For a creative writer possession of the truth is less important than emotional sincerity.
“The technotronic era involves the gradual appearance of a more controlled society. Such a society will be dominated by an elite, unrestrained by traditional values.” – Zbigniew Brzezinski

Absolutely! I talked to my dad early last week. He said he was going to Jamaica, didnt really pay attention to when he said he was leaving. I think he's there now and now I cant reach anyone on the phone. :-(. I'm sure he's fine though. No bad vibes!
Robyn,
What happens when you try to call? Does the call get through at all? Are phone lines up in Jamaica?
I'm trying to call his cell phone and it just goes straight to voice mail. Unfortunately, I dont have any numbers for my family in Jamaica, just a few relatives that live in the U.S. I sent an email and text message and left voicemail messages. I will have to resort to calling my dad's girlfriend in Florida [LOL again!] to see if he's okay or if she's heard from him.
Interesting Robyn,
It appears that all Jamaican men, have at least, one girlfriend - in Florida.
True indeed. :-).
Well calling Shelley will be interesting. It always is given past experience.
"Hi Shelley, this is Robyn, Derrick's daughter.
Oh Hi Raw-bin , how have you been? [nervous tone]
I just wanted to call and thank you for the pajama bottoms you sent me for my graduation from law school. You never can have enough pajama bottoms....with no top.
Well, I was concerned that you may not like them, your Dad said you would, but based on the last time I saw you I could tell your picky about your clothes.
Well yeah, but they were nice thank you. I really appreciate it. Well alright, can I speak back to my dad?
Sure.
[puts phone down]
[my mom in a whisper - "Did she say what happened to the top?"]
We laugh hysterically.
[Dad picks up phone]
Hey babes. Whats so funny?
Nothing Dad.....
ROFLMAO!
Lord ha' mercy. I hope my daughter never has to call my "girlfriend".
It would be about as cordial as Yassir Arafat calling Ariel Sharon.
"Daddy"?
Yes baby.
"Is that woman sittin' on your head too?"
LOL. Exactly!
Talked to my Dad. Shelley gave me the number. All is well and according to him, the pics on the news are exaggerated. He and my grandfather are sitting on the patio.
BTW, when I spoke to my grandfather whom I havent seen since I was 5 or talked to since probably 12 or so, the first question he asked me was, "When are you getting married?!" Thought you'd appreciate that DV!
