You mean posting at the Zone?

That's always a possibility with ARRELL dogging me all over the place. I swear, he wakes up every morning searching for my posts just waiting to start screaming at me. You think the boy would have a life by now.

Now as to subject matter.
We are talking about advanced concepts of modern technology, here. Nanotechnology, for one. Something that has been developed and IS being developed all around the world. We have bio-weapons and millions and millions of dollars for research available to the biggest, baddest inventors on the planet. You should be screaming because more of your tax dollars are going towards it than mine. We have no idea what is being developed and circulated, and we had better start looking at it very closely because our health depends on it.

>"So you are buying the idea that something can grow out of a person that can withstand 1,400 degrees of heat? "

Who said I was buying it? Since when does DISCUSSING it make me a peddler of it? Why can't I point it out to you? I hear you complaining that some promises are being broken. Like what? RL stalking me? RL hollering at me? If I remember correctly, he's been banned a couple of times because of that.

We discussed many new things here over the years. GM foods were a hot item many years ago. Quite a few had little concerns. Well, we watched the PUSH for GM foods, we saw the squelching of the scientific information about it's dangers, we saw farmers have to PAY Monsanto for having GM crops on their land when Monsanto was to blame for the cross-pollination of same. Yet because of "big business" and a corrupt judges, things went down well for Monsanto. Now we know who won't buy or sell GM products because of their dangers, but we got through discussing it. Same as the charge to war in Iraq. Same as the voting discrepancies. Same as......pick one.

Like what Tom? Please DO explain.
