Please be assured that at least 6 of us, including the four admins, Brian, and I, are deadly serious about the forum. You can't help but have noticed the immediate evisceration of bad actors, once identified.
We take time every single day to keep the forum moving forward for a number of reasons, including so that it leaves a legitimate historical record to teach future generations. We all hope fewer dead civilian bodies are left strewn across the planet.

Magicians used to be all the rage. We enjoyed the illusions. Perhaps we ought to view today's media illusions as grand magic tricks. Simon's revelation of 9/11 as an illusion is, in a sense, a magic trick-- with awful consequences in politics but a magic trick nonetheless, with paid actors and CGI planes. <b>I'm struggling to come to terms with an attitude that does more than point to the illusions and joke about them as is often done here</b>-- and use our awareness to construct a viable epistemology of illusion along with a citizen's guide to seeing the trick-- and eventually tricking the tricksters into self-exposure. <b>In essense, I wonder how we can get serious about all of this... and force the transformation of media and others back into truth.</b> There should be a simple formula... a simple set of tactics... a certain set of questions. It should be like snapping our fingers and suddenly we're ALL awake.

I'll take my leave now since I get the feeling that my approach is not quite the angle you guys want here... which is fair since I'm an occasional visitor from the outside. First I was accused of plagerizing your forum here, then my posts were characterized as incomprehensible-- and now this-- being quoted out of context and being presented with a veiled threat of being banned. Amazing. Even Simon wondered if I'm from Earth for pointing out RedBull's risk factor is equally big in faking this event as it was in doing it since faking it would risk an exposee. You'all are okay-- and I like your work but I think I'll take my marbles and go home. By the way, the RedBull drink has too much sugar... and the sugar free is too carbonated. It's astonishing to me that they were able to earn the kind of money have and had the success they've had. The origin of the drink is a Thai plant and I think it would be useful to go back and look at that-- and stay away from RedBull. That 5 hr energy drink is pretty good though.
Thanks to everyone here... I'm outta here. No hard feelings. We just don't do things the same way.
