This is really material for a poli group. The interesting thing is that 
we indeed seem to have elected a government that
many of us don't trust and think is up to no good. I am sorry but this 
is unsually high. I have haeard too many curious
things from too many people who one I would have never heard such 
things  from in the past. Of course there is an election
comeing and we can throw some of 'em out of office.  Of course some of 
this sounds like a Sally Churkshank(sp?) Short like
the her "Charbucks" presentation. which lives here:

But everytime I hear these things thing comes to mind and it is like one 
is living in a Sally C production  Still really I dunno whther
this would be better talked out on a poligroup. But the amount of 
emotion devoted to all of this is interesting. One would not expect
one's freind's child's 4th grade teachers to be into these sorts of things.

Have Fun,
Sends Steve
