cuz they used to say "chairman" like, 'chairman mao"

and then they tried changing it to "chairwoman"

if ever there was a woman chairman, which my muvva said
"chairman" was still ok, and, like, she was a woman,
so, if it didn't bother her, why should it bother me?

or "chairperson" and that was
just plaine olde cumbersome

so, they changed it to "chair"

"direct your comments to the chair"

and so, i started talking to chairs....empty ones...

well, not really, i just -thought- about talking to chairs...

i don't know why harry started talking to chairs

maybe he's just going batty...


[just kidding]


i'm not batty


i had this vision of a deep dark blackness

at the very center of the phychological "hell"

[whatever that means]

which was like a small concrete stonework room
that was the deepest darkest blackness you would imagine

and "No One" was in there

only No One was sort of like "a person"


who's sitting in that chair?

"No One"


and then you get to make up all sorts of gags

about the things "No One" does...


usually "No One" is actually sitting in my empty chairs...


etc. etc...

but straying from "reality" tooo far can be stoopidendous
because, like, one may be suggesting to themself that

"an infinite number of computer programs"

can be talked about, 99.999999...% of which

don't -do- anything at all

sometimes, because they're corrupted versions
of programs that do do things and you can have
some 'infinite' ....i don't even like saying
"number" here...

...some "infinite" array of 'corrupted' versions
of programs that could do something if they
were constructed 'properly' and had
a machine to 'run' on, and

is it possible for some -machine- to figure out,
which one is the 'working' program out of the
infinite array of programs, -like- the one
that does work, that don't work?

yeah yeah yeah, given "infionite time"
-and- a very patient programmer


we can find the 'working' model by trial and error,
'borrowing' programs from the infinite array of
pre-existing programs, looking for, and perhaps
finding, that one, or small set, that actually 'operate.

but No One doesn't like to think of this as a borrowing
out of a bin of programs that 'existed' before time immemorial

and instead, likes to consider the possibility

that a 'new thing' has been constructed, so, we don't need,
nor can we actually, think of this infinite array of
possible programs that sit in a mythological bucket
soemwhere just waitimng for teh "lucky" programmer
to hit the number and "find" a working construction.


sidetracking; [do loop]


and then you have your "Eris and Ameris" illusions


where "Eris" is small and represents all the
programs that actually could be working
functional programs

and "Aneris" is all the programs that either
don't function or just don't do anything at all
and, of course, "Aneris" is much much larger than "Eris"


so, "Eris" likes to try and grab programs

from "Aneris" and make them work

somnetimes with some success and sometimes,

just another paperweight...


[end do loop]


"you mean, there's a way OUT of this miasmic quagmire?"


of course, of course, and the still

small voice wispers quietly;


"follow my trail of bread crumbs, there's

a light at the end of this tunnel"


STOP


oh, i'll stop here, but not because
of that silly stop sign, but because
it is the coreect thing to do,
and i realize that.

someone said:

> Is God spirit?


more to the point, is hydrogen gas, "spirit"?

is gold and platinum, "spirit"?

someone said:

> Is God infinite?


hydrogen gas, gold and platinum do not seem to be "infinite"

based on keen observations, these -things- are "finite"

someone said:

> If God is INFINITE SPIRIT (holy Spirit)
> then there is NOWHERE where God is not.


if you draw a distinction between matter and "spirit"

then, it may be somewhat like a "semi-permeable membrane"


because we may be able to suggest that "God's Spirit"

has no such "exclusion principle" as does matter


and therefore, can be present 'where' matter is present,

without -being- itself, made of matter, while
we cannot say the same thing about matter

in that matter is finite and not present

where there is no matter present.


and now there's the prospect of -interaction-


and, 'finite' matter may not be able to
-comprehend- "Spirit" unless that Spirit
make itself known.


man seems to be in possession of a "consciousness emulator"


while God is "Pure Consciousness"


and then there is "communication"

or the prospect thereof of such a communcation
between said "consciousness emulators"
and God's own Pure Consciousness


and this is the distinction we point out.


that of communicative interaction betwen God and man


and not just assuming that being in a universe where God IS


demands such communication without direction.

> the semi-permeable membrane

if, you skip over the "procedure and methodology" section,

you will never be able to compare a result

with the "results" section,

and it would never be my compelling element
to -plead- with -anyone- who will -not- follow
the "procedures and methodologies" section
and simply says;

"i don't get your results and therefore,
your results are invalid"






in other words,

i don't have to plead with anyone or any group

to follow the "procedures and methodologies" section,

but who, simply -insist- that their ignorance and

lack of knowledge is the -only- _possible_ result.



all the while, 'they' or whomsoever is/are all to willing
to take dish fed results sections about phenomena that
-they- have never experienced personally for granted
and -without- "personal experience" as "evidence"



so, they 'believe' one thing that they have never
=personally= experienced because they want to be
part of that group who follows such and such an ideology,

but make demands of another group for -evidence- that
-they- are simply unwilling to gather up -by- following
the proper and correct "procedures and methodologies"

and so, by personal preference
and personal preference alone,

they accept one ideological framework as correct
-without- personal experience -as- 'evidence'

and reject another ideological framework
simply because they won't -look- -for-
the evidences themselves, and rush precipitously
to the conclusion that there is no evidence to be seen,

based on group favorability and group favorability alone.


anyway, a semi-permeable membrane, in the natural,
is like a grating that allows some things to pass through
and yet, prevents other things from passing through,
like maybe sodium ions which are small can pass through
and potassium ions which are larger cannot,
so, an electircal gradient it set up and this
helps to regulate heart contrctions etc.

so, in likeness,

this is a gradient which certain phenomena

can pass ---> in a one way fashion

you may not be able to just waltz over through
the semi-permeable membrane and "see" God almighty,

but God almighty, not only can, but -must- come
'through the veil' to you.


and 'communion' is possible but then we have

to, also, deal with the 'signal to noise' problems...

] the unknown God [


I choose ---> I guess


I am chosen <---> I am known


the personal nature of God requires
a conscious allowance of comprehensibility
by God to whomsoever will attain to it.

while any reasonable person should be able
to infer the existance, and absolute necessity,
of a conscious initiator who brings the
material universe in to being from some
non-material predecessor, and who, subsequently,
initiates the animated living processes
in the material composition,

that same reasonable person may not simply deduce
the total personality of God from some careful
study of his or her own environment nor his
or her own personality.

and so, inasmuch as a conscious personal God
operates under some methodology whereby that
same God will reveal God's personality to
living creatures of the material nature,
we can easily suggest that God 'chooses'
how God will reveal God to these same creatures.

and so, the 'choice' being God's and not
the living creatures' is no special reflection
on the merits of the living creatures, but is
simply a reflection of God's own personal nature.

that is, that God 'chooses' to reveal God and
make God comprehensible to 'us' is a direct
entailment of the personal nature of God.

God must choose because God is personal.

what 'we' can do, is to point at generalized overviews
of how God chose to reveal aspects of God's nature
to 'us', in hopes that any who may hear will be
come upon by the same sublime characteristics
of God's nature as 'we' who point.

and the evidentiary nature of these sublime
characteristics is one objective proof.

that is, the proof of God is God
and not my pointing and explanations.

God chooses to reveal God to whom God will.

God is not a shattered guesswork portrait
of irreconcilable contradictions, and the
result of anyone's best offorts at constructing
a personalized idolatry will never rise
and walk on its own.

our minds must be renovated to the consciousness
of God by God and inasmuch as any of 'us' may be
of any help in that process, we render our
services with gratitude.

on so on...

as a side comment, if a mob of people went down
to massachusettes avenue or thereabouts and firebombed
the Libyan embassy, the fedeal police would bust them
and try them on severe criminal charges,

but, the Libyan gubbment is not taking credit for

this 'attack' on the U.S. Embassy and may, simply
not have the resources to arrest the Libyan
civilians who perpetrated this criminal action.

the U.S. Federal Government in not taking credit for
he production of some movie that offends... the people
who became offened by it.


sure, there are some blurry lines between

american people abnd th U.S. Federal Government

but american people do things all the time without
even asking the Federal government, and sometimes
these things are criminal and sometimes they are
just a normal course of a day's events.


when people rise up and go after government installations,
they're making a bit of a mistake, and a large one in
the understanding of how 'democratic' governments operate.

what they -could- have does was to =petition= the u.s. ambassador
to look into the film and how itwas affecting those people's life.

but to kill this person for a film that the
federal government is not taking credit
for is just wrong.


you -don't- really want to make an -enemy-

out of the u.s. federal government.


but killing federal agents does step
close to such an eventuality.

so what?

well, unca sam isn't likely to start
dropping bombs on libya for this,


but, you haven't made a friend here.


and if you -ever- expect to get the
Tripoli Hilton up and running


you -don't- want unca sam in a bind.


etc.

yes, the u.s. federal police would arrest
any mob of american citizens who stormed
a country's embassy in america and carried out
acts of violence against that embassy.


so, the distinction is there...


you've picked the -wrong- 'perpetrator' here...


the u.s. ambassador did -nothing-

and neither did the u.s. federal government.


-some- day, this may be clear to such mobs.

=you= may very well kill someone in your country
for depicting mohammed in some way to which you object

but, =you= -killed- a person who had nothing to do
with the action and a person who has been -invited-
in to your country as a -guest-

this is not Justice,

this is a criminal act.

This is the ACTUAL LEVEL OF RIGOUR

that TURING'S Halting Proof uses! It's never been formalised more
than an outline.

The only reason ZFC is popular AT ALL, a *SUB_SET* specification
language

is because it ATTEMPTS to formalise CANTORS PROOF

but it merely circumvents the ARGUMENT (X>oo) into another ARGUMENT

about ONTO FUNCTIONS which are easier to apply MODUS PONENS to LOOK
FORMAL!

RIGHT! Partial Credit to BARB for STEERING THE TOPIC in the right
direction, and reducing the Halting Proof down to only 4 serious
errors this time!

h(f, x) <-> f(x) + 1 IFF f(x) HALTS
<-> 0 OTHERWISE

NOW for the OTHER 3 ERRORS!

You can't just GASBAG about PROGRAMS and FUNCTIONS that return ANTI-
DIAGONALS and THROW CONTRADICTIONS at what you THINK was the
ASSUMPTION.

You have to actually FORMALISE THEORIES much like GODEL DID to PROVE
GS is TRUE.

C1 |- f1, f2, f3, f4...
C2 |- anti-diag(f1(1), f2(2), f3(3)... )

THEN you might ONE DAY WAKE UP

that you CANNOT FORMALISE SUCH TRIVIAL ERRORS as the HALTING PROOF!

QUESTION
---------------

IS THERE ANY DIFFERENT BETWEEN

1 A PROGRAM THAT CAN OUTPUT THE HALTING VALUE OF ANY PROGRAM AND INPUT

AND

2 A FUNCTION THAT CAN RETURN THE HALTING VALUE OF ANY PROGRAM AND
INPUT

If you CARRY ON about the HALTING PROOF ANY LONGER without ADDRESSING
THE SERIOUS FLAWS, such as THIS QUESTION EXPOSES you have no busines
in a LOGIC DISCUSSION GROUP.

see, you start at Hermitage Castle

and you get one ball and one club

and you whack the ball all the way to Inverness,

and if you lose your ball, you better find it

cuz if you don't, you can't get across the river,

and that's where the hole is.



"of course Tim has his own version of golf"

nuh uh, that -is- golf

i don't have a 'different' version,
-you- have a different version.

in fact there may be several variations,

-but- some claim that you -must-
follow in Joseph's footprints


"Joseph, Joseph who?"


Joseph of Arimathea

you people don't now anything,


right, some say you must follow in
Joseph's footprints,,, if you can
still find them

and -if- you find the hole,

you may have just stumbled on the Grail.

"the Grail?"

yes, it's the cup at the hole.

we buried it there so we'd
always know where it was
and how to play to it.


but just remember,

i may have told you where the cup is,
but you still don't really know
-where- the cup is.

don't lose your ball.

the little guy near the bridge
will want to inspect it.

yeah, i know there are already people
on the other side of the river,

-but- they forgot something
when they crossed the river.

and what that is, only Tim will tell.

well, that was just a silly pun,

and not meant to conceal
any useful information.

'fore'

don't lose yur step.

you'll have to go all the
way back to squire one.


maybe it is all made up, maybe not

some people think i'm just playin' a round

i'm not,

that golf course is holy.

it's just hard to find the holes

maybe cuz there ain't none

...must be somewhere

still no holes

nothing Israel

[nothing is real]


"hold on a minnit, is this still about golf
or did you lose your way again?"

i never lost my way

i was just playing around

i'm aloud yuh know



"so there's a golf course with
no holes and the Grail is the cup?"


yeah, the Grail is a cup


"but what about the club?"


if yur lookin' for a knot on your head

think again

you may not wanna join -that- club.

you'll get over it.


"you mean the river?
"i'll get over the river?"


you shoulda never called it a monster
if you have plans of fishin' your
ball outa that lake

and i saw it drop in there.

it's a pretty deep place

and that 'monster' don't take kindly...

most "turing machines" are imaginary devices

input --> algor1 B --> inp4 --> algor1

one of which takes outputs and feeds them in to other machines...

of, Santy Claus may very well be keeping detailed rekkerds
and feeding thenm all in to his mainframe and deciding
just who is "good" and who is, an obnoxious little brat.

so, don't think that's not a decidable issue

of course, some issues still beyond the capacity of a machine

but with all the time saving accrued -by- th evarious machines

Santy sleeps very well and has plenty of time to contemplate

hese weightier issues so, don't even begin to consider

that Santy Claus is a slave to the machines.

"delight yourself in YHWH and see
the desires of your heart"

# what you don't want to see here
# is that you 'delight' in YHWH because
# you consider that as a way to assure that
# you get all the apple pie you want,
# as this would tend to suggest that
# your true delight is in apple pie
# and not in YHWH.


like; begin to set your sights on God
and God will draw near to you, and your
hearts desires will be fulfilled.

not, "set your sights on apple pie and
say nice things about God but don't
necessarily act like you mean them"

not anti apple pie, it's just an example
of setting your sights on things of a
material nature and claiming God as
a tool to help you get them.

that is not what we would be driving towards.

and this all plays into the bits
on the flesh and the spirit.

you have to train your flesh so
that it walks along with you

and not so that it drags you
wherever it wants to go.

in part, this will come down
to a distinction in habits.

like, enforced habits as opposed to leading habits

or active habit as opposed to passive habit.

one can easily see how snorting heroin
quickly becomes a passive habit, where
-you- are drawn along on a chain by bodily
forces where, of course, this is an extreme case.

habitual exercising would be an enforced routine
where you actively have to tell your body what
to do even when it may not want to do such
a thing and it tells you so,

but there are snares there as well,

and we have our Savior to root them out.

'bliss' would be the purest form

so, now, you have some understanding
of tyrannical rule, and you don't like it.

so what?

does just realizing "this is tyranny"
supply you with the ability to root it out?

so, you've identified 'it' and now you
seek to mollify it and control it...

do you now become that which you detest?

yes, you do, because -your- _struggle_
is now with flesh and blood and -you-
_are_ flesh and blood.


so, you assassinate what you -think-
is your problem and in so doing, bring
that which you sought to prevent,
to the forefront.

you stab your 'friend' mercilessly,...

to what end?

...to establish autocratic government?

how is all of this related?

we shall see...



"delight yourself in YHWH and see
the desires of your heart"
[see psalm 37]

so much of this thing is wrapped up in
how you understand this statement.

what you don't want to see here
is that you 'delight' in YHWH because
you consider that as a way to assure that
you get all the neat things you want,
as this would tend to suggest that
your true delight is in neat things
and not in YHWH.

and that would quickly be construed
as "lip service for amenities"

if you consider this from God's point of view,

God would like God to -be- the desires of
your heart and so, when you delight yourself
in YHWH you really are seeing the desires of
your heart, or at least, catching an ever
more clear view of the desires of your heart
as YHWH begins to educe from you and ellicit
in you that character that more closely resembles
the true Image of God which is where your
true happiness resides.

> a contrite spirit and broken heart approaches God with boldness

obviously,

God doesn't think as the 'carnal mind of man'

and by 'carnal mind of man' we'd mean,

the mind of the flesh,
the material based,
impulse driven,
consciousness emulator


so, first off, when they say;

"God's ways are 'higher' than man's ways"

there's that distinction,

God's 'mind' or consciousness
is not material based and
impulse driven.

and man's impulses do not tell him
that contrition is boldness.

but, maybe it is just that,

only the boldness of contrition
is in that one seems to go against
his -own- first glance sense of what
is correct and beneficial.

you basically come before God, empty handed, anyway,

living humbly with your God -is- a 'bold move'

especially in the face of the attitude that you
may protect your own perceived best interests,
in large part, by a display of fierceness
to drive away intruders, as it were.

you'd never think of displaying a contrite
and humble manner to intruders who wished
to possess what was 'yours'

like you'd raise your arms high
to try and scare away a bear,
and maybe that would work,

and that, to you, is boldness.

so, how could you ever see contriteness as bold?

i'm sure there are many angles to this.

obviously, The Almighty Eternal Being
is awesome and would be a Presence
commanding total respect and honor,
having nothing to fear of -you-

and yet, God -wants- for you to stand
as Holy and Blameless before God in
total Faith and Trust and ....'boldness'

but you may 'naturally' run _away_ -from- God.

and yet, there's Moses, running
-towards- the wall of fire, and
Moses was a very -humble- man.

so, this -boldness- before God
remains humble and contrite.

not -exactly- as 'the carnal mind of man'
could comprehend instinctively, nor even
at all.

there's probably more...

so, an obsession with freedom
drives you into bondage

you assess the wrong thing
as the emblem of your 'freedom'
and it enslaves you.

to consider that to be free
is to follow the dictates of
your body is to become mired
in the body's tendency towards
a potential energy well.

and there's a funny bit about
the children of Israel as they
are lifted out of the mud pits
of Egypt and brought out
into the desert.

it's like most of them are hopelessly
adicted to the flesh and have one eye
back in Egypt where their daily ration/fix
laid waiting and many moan and complain
as they are fed on the very simple manna
that was falling from the sky.

they get brought out into a rigorous
purification and their bodies are
rebelling and rejecting 'instruction'

i think they did go down into Egypt,
originally, in a time of famine.

they began to prosper in the land,
and then 'Pharoah' put 'chains' on them.

would you say that 'prosperity' is an evil?

certainly not.

but, to see one become trapped as slave
to their body -in- a proserous situation
can be described as, somewhat, 'ironic'

you haven't enough, you suddenly have
more than you need, and you become trapped
as a slave inside of your own flesh.

this, in part, because, for you, freedom
became solely in following the dictates
of the flesh that had seen deprivation
and then found itself without lack.

so, before you develop an obsession
with 'freedom' maybe you had best better
discover exactly what 'freedom' -is-.

and this hearkens back to dear sweet Eve
who came to be convinced that the 'tree
of the knowledge of good and evil' was
suitable "to -make- one wise"

as in, she seemed to realize that she -was not-
'wise' and this lack of knowledgeable understanding
of the thing itself made it impossible for her
to discern exactly what -it- was that she did
-not- have and, therefore, -how- to 'get -it-'.

"that will -make- me wise"

and then;

"i was tricked"

it didn't make her wise,

it made her ashamed.

so, first we have to find out what it is that
this 'wisdom' even -is- before we can properly
decide what it is that will bring it to us.

we haven't time to diffuse the bomb
-after- we've pressed the wrong switch,

and we just don't know, beforehand,
what the right switch is, and so,
we simply -must-
'listen to and heed instruction'

no, God didn't 'booby trap' the system,

in fact, it was clear,

"don't do that, do that, die"

we need 'finishing'

always did.

God's own manifold wisdom is unfiltered Truth.

A Tree of Life

we must be 'born again'

and now we can be, again.

YHWH is Savior

Wise and Free

and generous

the desires of our hearts

thanks.

in that even if Jesus Christ could
snort heroin and not lie cheat steal

is itself an arduous task.

meaning, hard enough, in itself, without

to establish and maintain
pure circuitry inasmuch

When we say 'compute' we mean 'use some computer program' which is
always finite regardless how many list items it can handle.

but constructing this list of all-good-halters functions will not help
prove anything about halting.

the DOMAIN of functions CHANGES depending on the SPECIFICATION of the
function being examined.

A NON-SELF-REFERENTIAL HALT FUNCTION is specifiable.

It inputs a TM number and that TM's TAPE Input number
and outputs HALT or NOT-HALT (1 or 0)

*THEN* the HALT FUNCTION TERMINATES ITSELF.

-----------

It's impossible to self reference, the value of testing itself works
for both values halt or not, it is arbitrary.

Just because it is POSSIBLE to write a FUNCTION based on that program
that CONTINUES RUNNING AFTER GIVING THE ANSWER, does not mean the new
halt function and the old halt function are equivalent.

When you CHANGE THE HALT PROGRAM (THAT HALTS ITSELF AFTER ANSWERING)

YOU CHANGE THE DOMAIN AND RANGE OF THE FUNCTION because you have
INTRODUCED THE POTENTIAL OF SELF REFERENCE and the HALT FUNCTION that
can be used MID PROGRAM has a LARGER DOMAIN OF FUNCTIONS that it has
to work on.

I had not been mistaken in my fancy that there was a simple dignity in him.
The fashion of his dress could no more come in its way when he spoke these
words, than it could come in its way in Heaven. He touched me gently on the
forehead, and went out. As soon as I could recover myself sufficiently, I
hurried out after him and looked for him in the neighbouring streets; but he

and, in another imaginative construct,

we simply demand that the space between the two rocketships,
with -no- string attached, must undergo -no- lengthening nor
contraction, inasmuch as it is, perceived as vacuum.

it's difficult to say;

sort of like saying;


we take two projectiles which are constructed

of 100 decaliter evacuated glass tubes


and as light speed is approached, the glass contracts,
but the 'space' remains the same, and so, will the
glass tubing break?

the two rockets has really increased.

and so, you say, the gap between

the string remains in place and does not pull away.


the material design of the rockets and how
they manage to project themselves to light
speed is wholly irrelevant,


the relevant datum, is the length contraction
that is =calculated= by an inert observer, -you-


the strength of the rope is irrelevant.

the rope does not hold the rockets
together by virtue of its strength

the rope converts the =frame=

from two 100 meter rocketc

to ONE 300 meter rocket-string-rocket assembly

and =that= is the length that

contracts in the second case.

oh, by the way, "amweica" is an actual
counter-intelligent-country intimately
aligned with "america" which was first
'created' by misspelling and bureaucratic
oversight but which gained and
maintained an actual soveriegn status.


the "United States of Amweica" was first
recognized during the LB Johnson Administration
after 17 pieces of legislation were discovered
which carried the mispelled characters which
were signed into law by president Coolidge
during his term in office.


instead of recasting the legislation with
a spelling correction, the opportunity was
siezed to spin off a new country which
was granted certain specific and non-specific
rights of eminent domain and the like.


not entirely 'supranational' but not
entirely governed under the
"U.S. Constitution"


details of its make-up etc. make it possible to
operate in a manner parallel to "america" but

some of the details concerning "amweica's"
inception may be unclear as some claim that
the "oversight" first occured during the
Hoover administration and some claim
Roosevelt is to 'blame' and some claim
Nixon was the first to take notice and seize

no 'new' country was ever spun off.

not that i care at all, but, seeing as how
there are people who are -always- looking
for an opportunity to do some sort of
'terrorist' act against U.S.Federal interests

it is -possible- that there was, actually,
a 'spontaneous' demonstration about the movie,
and some people saw all the commotion and went
home and picked up their heavy weapons and
schmoozed in to the not-so-violent movie
demonstration and did a murder.

like, you can pre-meditate murder in a matter of seconds
and there's no real evidence that anyone was planning
this libyan thing for six months.

if they were planning this thing for months,
the satellites would have probably picked up
cross talk and knew it was coming.

they could have 'planned' it on the spot in a matter
of minutes and turned the movie demonstration in
to an opportunity to do murder.

not that i care at all....

see, like, to -plan- six months ahead of time,
to get hundreds of people to show up at an embassy,
and mull around to cause a distraction for 10 or 15
action taking 'terrorists' to go to work killing people
would have taken some considerable amount of planning
and 'secrecy' and could not preclude the possibility
that an 'operative' [u.s. intelligence operative]
on the ground in libya would be in among the planned
mulling crowd and -warn- people
that this thing was happening.

so, ask yourself, how many days was
this thing planned ahead of time?

"but it happened on sacred 911 day"

coincidence...

it still remains, that this mulling of a large number
of people probably -was- "spontaneous" and the subsequent
schmoozing in of the 10 or so actionable killers was also,
a spur of the moment pre-meditation, expecially insamuch as
there are some who are -always- on the lookout for
an opportunity to do such things.

so, -that- part needs no prior planning;

"if you see a chance, kill a federal agent"

so, what you're trying to say, is, that
this thing was planned months in advance

but this doesn't seem to be -obviously- the case,
and then you define it as a "terrorist" action

-because- of what happened.

all without being able to show that this thing
was part of a specificly blueprinted diabolical
plan that was outlined years in advance
to commemorate holy 911 day.

that you don't got...

i still don't like mandatory purchasing of health insurance policies,

#> and then you define it as a "terrorist" action

#> -because- of what happened.

and -not- by any 'plan' that you've been able to uncover

and you can't demonstrate conclusively that a considerable
number of people were -not- simply mulling around the embassy
with -no- prior knowledge of any 'planned' "terrorist action"
and that they may have been there 'for the movie'

now you can get your conspiracy together and say that
the maker of the movie was part of the grand scheme
just so the 'terrorists' could convince a large number
of people to mull around embassies so the smaller number
of 'terrorists' who were part of the "plan" could do
their thing with a diversionary crowd cover who had
no prior knowledge that they were, in fact,
a diversionary crowd.

now waste 6000 man hours trying to prove this...

and unca sam gets more and more paranoid and

starts pointing fingers at himself in the mirror...

win/win for the 'terrorists'...

in other words, if you were going to try the entire crowd
as accessories to murder, you'd have a considerable difficulty
actually proving that the entire crowd was there for the murders
and not there for some other reason, i.e. griping about
the grave insult to ...the insulted.

if you ever get your head out of the dark place between your legs
that you've managed to jam it up in to, you may make a fine guest

U.S. presses again to eradicate Afghan opium poppies
=

it was the taliban who was cutting
down and eradicating afghan opium

-before- america and britain went
in there to save the day.

and now people are saying that the
taliban funds itself on afghan
opium poppies.

the biggest junkies on the
planet are not the taliban.

convince me that the u.s. didn't go into
afghanistan with the express purpose of
-saving- the poppy fields which the
taliban was destroying.


and now it's all like they're
there to rid the world of poppies.
======

====

in June of 2001, before "911" affghany opium poppies
are being eradicated by the Taliban

and, 6 years later, -after- the U.S. military
is in afffghanystan, after "911"

opium is at bumper crop levels and U.S.
is "pressing" to eradicate opium...


the Taliban, had wiped out nearly
3/4 of the world's opium harvest

and this was convulsing the market.


and -then- the u.s. and british military
find a reason to insert itself in to affgannystan.

and -then- opium and heroin production out of
affghannystan skyrockets to new highs


and -then- u.s. military people start talking
about -how- to eradicate teh opium poppy,

because teh =Taliban= is said to be growing
it and selling it to fund their actions.

the same people who were eradicating it, successfully,

and now said to be -producing- it successfully.

but, the Taliban, had some sort of 'religious'
rationale for -eradicating- opium.

what puzzles me is, that if the u.s. actually
wanted to eradicate opium and the taliban had
already done a fine job of it with crude farming implements,
how is it, that, the presence of the military,
results in a =boom= in production?

the one answer is that the u.s. and britain didn't want
to eradicate anything but, practically, inserted themselves
in to affghannystan for the express purpose of
-saving=- the poppy.

it's confusing...

and some very highly placed folks, even on WALL street

have turned to these very powerful narcotics...


and some of these people have 'your' future in their hands...


luckily, HAL is running the show for the most part...

well, i actually watched the teevee show.

'bama just didn't look comfortable with himself.

if you look at a repeat, and turn the sound down,

'bama's eyes are twitching, like a nervous tic.

when rommey was talking, 'bama would stare down
and his eyes were twitching like he was nervous
and was in fear of being punched or something.

he really looked uncomfortable that anyone
could actually oppose him to his face.

he must be surrounded with yes men or something.

rommey did have a silly grin on his face,

but i've been accused of that,

and i say, "what silly grin?"


it -did- look like rommey was teaching 'bama

and 'bama was a reluctant stoodent.


i was thinking that exact thing during parts of it.



the format was ok and the 'moderator'

didn't get in their way too much.


it was a bit of an eye opener...


but, 4 years ago, i said that if they sent erkel up there
and had him say the things 'bama was saying, the apollo
would have booed him off the stage.


but this was different

'bama looked really uncomfortable in his own skin at times
