#2 On second thought, this isn't funny. He's obviously one of the professionally demented assholes. The funding for the thousands of such morons is not funny at all. Major bucks are being expended to spread the dementia.

A reckoning is coming for all of these interests, and I hope it's a harsh sumbitch.

#3 Titles are a funny thing. A girlfriend of mine has "World headquarters of ---- Company, Inc" etched on the door of her home office. That way, should she ever get a commission in Canada or Mexico, she'll be prepared. It doesn't cost anything extra to be a world headquarters, either.

I googled the organization, and got this interesting bit: In 1998 Gagnon left the FCPJ wanting to work full time on space issues and began serving as volunteer Coordinator of the GN as it has begun to make the effort to become a self sustaining membership organization.

Now that www.transterrestrial.com has dealt with the White House, would someone PLEASE have them investigate and inform Capt. Queeg who stole the strawberries. He is anxious to know.

He's a professional hippie!

#7 I hope my prediction on this is wrong. But from where I sit all the strands are coming together
So if your prediction is wrong, can I suggest a penance ? Drink 4 ounces of Draino followed by a glass of water.

#8 Idiot - there was a recent article in The Economist (was it posted here?)

stating that the top 13 oil companies are state-owned and control 90%.

Poor Exxon is 14th.

So, how's W going to take over Norway, Venezuela and the rest?

Aye, me hearties! That be September 19, no doubt the day Jolly George and Black Dick plan their coup. Arr!

A girlfriend of mine has "World headquarters of ---- Company, Inc" etched on the door of her home office.

Used to be a place near me that was the "Intergalactic Headquarters" of something-or-other. Fairly large building, too. They moved. I hear labor is cheaper in the Magellanic Clouds.

#11 This crap is trotted out before every election. That it has never occurred, doesn't stop them.
