where a panel of defense contractors keep going from think tank to think tank shopping for a pundit, corporate lawyer or creative accountant to make their plan of a "limited" nuclear war using small nukes that are all illegal by treaty...an economic success.

Then there is the movie "Shopping Spree"

where a panel of defense contractors keep going from think tank to think tank shopping for a pundit, corporate lawyer or creative accountant to make their plan of a "limited" nuclear war using small nukes that are all illegal by treaty.

Finally they get somebody to make the numbers work and start their war only to find out that their ecomonic pundit was a 16 year old hacker hooked on meth.

There are as many reasons for getting deleted or banned as there are forum moderators and administrators in the world. Some of those reasons are the Cyberspace equivalents of "I don't like your looks!" or "Because I can!" I was banned from one site because an adminstrator didn't like who I use as an Internet Service Provider. Remember that a fair number of sites are run by cyber-punks whose relationships with normal human beings have been twisted way out of proportion by spending too many hours in front of computer screens.

How about a movie about a President who has every single author of an unauthorized biography of President X die of suicide or a voracious viral spread cancer.

All of them die including Dolly Imans, all except for a guy named Woodward who wrote the authorized version.

Then there was No Blade of Grass involving gene experiments with grain.


How about a movie about corporate viral warfare?


Let me tell you what is happening in the multi billion dollar poultry corporations now.

Corporate dirty tricks know no bounds in this age of corporatocracy.
The trick today is viral warfare. If you refuse to take an offer you can't refuse the result will be a poisoning of your live stock with H5N1.

In corporate poultry farms around the world that are competely self contained indoor facilities there have been bird flu infections that force the company to close down and kill every last chicken or turkey.

The movie ends with a mutation of 2 amino acid chains that kill all the children and CEO's alike.

I googled on PLA and the top PLA that came out was Playboy Enterprises, the next one was the Public Library Association, and the next was "Phone Losers of America".

I am hurt, and slightly worried.

Yes Joe is a real person, but he's not a clone. All the others are clones of him.

It may seem like science fiction but I have actually seen him dancing around a camp fire with a silly hat on his head and his arms spread out wide.

If the other site is called "The Answer Bank" then perhaps you should ask them why!!!

Does anyone remember the SF story where a robot judge sentenced a man to death for Kidnap of R.L.Stevenson and Murder (since R.L.S. was deceased), when all he'd done was fail to return his library book.
On Friday I visited another site "The Answer Bank" to ask a question, and while I was there I thought I'd pass on my views on some of the other questions there.
One of the questions was about a nursery school so I referred them to the Preschool Learning Alliance.
All my posts from Friday onwards have been deleted, with no explanation.
Could this have been because I referred to the organisation by its initials?
Should I expect a dawn raid from the anti-terror-police?

I'll stick to Mudcat in future, at least we get little notes from Joe Clone, and he sounds like a real person not a computer programme.
