So, I guess I'm not paranoid.

rev. paperboy (god is an iron)

even paranoids have enemies. The question is whether we are paranoid enough. Keep in mind that excerpt comes from a book written by an avowed conservative.

This extract from the article brought to mind the copy of Popular Mechanics I was reading yesterday (from October 2004.) There were *34 pages* of articles about weapons, war and military, before there was an article about anything else! smiley - peacedove

clzoomer- a bit woobly

Apple, you don't have to be so recent with your Popular Mechanics. I have quite a few very old issues and they seem to change in the 30's. Before that it was all *isn't Science wonderful!*smiley - laugh That's not to say that their perceived militarism is dominant throughout, though. The Space Race, the Shuttle, NASA advances, medical inventions and of course automobiles have all had a strong influence on the publication. As to it's current slant, I suppose it's reasonable considering Iraq and 911. Paranoia will destroy ya. smiley - smiley This too shall pass.

Anhaga- you paranoid?smiley - laugh I've always maintained that paranoia is the correct response if in fact they all are plotting against you...
Thanks for that link, it made very interesting reading.

smiley - cheers

I'm interested to hear that, cl zoomer...

One thing that fair blew my mind, was seeing an advert for a gun, in PM! I mean, there are adverts for guns in some American magazines! (Not to mention the adverts for cigarettes and alcohol all throughout them...) smiley - weirdsmiley - aliensmile
