  1. Never underestimate all the benefits of staying asleep.
  2. Given the irrational relationship naïve people have toward reality, naivety will not disappear because a so-called conspiracy has been proven.
  3. You should stop calling conspiracy theorists people who simply are not naïve enough to believe rulers cannot do that kind of things to a few of their subjects and national symbols when it comes to legitimizing what they think will become overwhelmingly important national security matters in the long run.
  4. For all threads related to terror, remember this old saying: a bad dream is simply a realized dream.
  5. Narcissism is more an American complex than a Danish one.
  6. "First come, first served" is only a good principle if one is respecting the Lockean proviso.
  7. So, Paul Martin and his three sons are really the big fishes we should go after here since the Canadian Navy would not been allowed to catch the little fishes attacking ships belonging to Canada Steamship Lines.
  8. Niels Harrit is also giving interviews on his paper:
  9. More and more we will have to widen the use of the doctrine of odious debt. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Odious_debt
  10. The young guns of Somalia are much like the young guys here: they are way too proud to accept help.
  11. For those of you who have a lot of time on their hands, three companion papers on the subject from Jim Hoffman can help you to spend it: http://911research.wtc7.net/essays/thermit...g_scenario.html http://911research.wtc7.net/essays/thermit...e_residues.html http://911research.wtc7.net/essays/thermit...e_timeline.html
  12. We too often forget in our vast country that streets are not primarily meant for transportation, they are first and foremost public places.
  13. It is about time Westerners put to use all the movies they like so much to watch where brave people are talking very efficiently to gangsters who hold them at the point of their guns.
  14. Recall also that William Rodriguez, a survivor, a hero and a janitor there, had heard an explosion before the plane hit the first Tower. http://video.google.ca/videoplay?docid=-58...lient=firefox-a http://video.google.ca/videoplay?docid=386...lient=firefox-a
  15. Deported near the North-West Passage, these pirates could become the first beneficiaries of Global Warming by pursuing there their current activities.
  16. What is most noticeable in this affair is that Steven Jones and Kevin Ryan have seen the end of their scientific careers. Politics is everywhere when it comes to subsidizing or preventing scientific research. It will be impossible to advance this science debate without financing a research program.
  17. The link I see between AGW and 9/11 is that our rulers have stopped to cunningly push their subjects to wage wars when they noticed that they could accumulate wealth more easily by abusing nature more directly through the work of their subjects.
  18. The biggest building code litigation in history could similarly have been the lack of fire repellant means in Rome in 64 A.D. when it was burned down (by Nero ?) so that the Christians could be accused of the fire and then persecuted.
  19. One of the best country in the world today (Australia) used to be a remote and barren island where the British Empire sent the unruly.
  20. While Y is a worst event for you than X, you can be fooled on Y because you are searching the truth on X (here X stands for the 9/11 attacks).
  21. Straits are such an enduring problem in navigation history precisely because seamen who dare pass through a strait are usually seen as the lawbreakers.
  22. It is well established that human's big brain forces a premature birth on our species. It doesn't seem to me that biology has much to say to explain this extreme and specific neoteny. For psychoanalysis on the contrary, this neoteny is well explained by the unique challenge poses to human fetuses when they hear their mothers speak.
  23. Breaking thinner and thinner ice can still serve as an excuse to imposing a ransom-like tax on commercial ships.
  24. Leap of faith is the best way to face the incompleteness found by Gödel in any logical reasoning.
  25. Capitalism is way too imaginative in allowing financial wealth to grow.
