That was a breath mint commercial by the actor who played the TV 'dick' MANNIX-and I hope I cc'd the right boxes here-this is in allusion to the fact that some of our 'bunkers' are doin' "God Knows WHAT?" Just as in Albania's red commie days-where there was a foxhole and machinegun nest outside of every human habitation, during the 'Cold War' the US and RUSSIA and their partners, went
on a building spree, and we don't today probably have a true accounting of where all the facilities are
that weren't 'decommissioned' PUBLICALLY-that is ANYONE...theoretically could be set-up LARGE in a "1984" kind-of East Berlin/OLD NIKE BASE situation, where 'they' could run their version of an
INTERNET/"memory-hole"...and there is a need to find and monitor ALL the "Hidden Places" in the'
ENTIRE world-find them, and '"spike-'em" or man the site with the reinvestment of new equiptment a
mission statement, with goals, and work the 'cyber-space frontier' in an ecologicall- friendly manner.
There has probably never been another occasion in Man's history, outside of the cooperation myth of Babel, where the opportunities to 'FIX" certain 'LOGISTIC PROBLEM" were at hand, for our "Lost PLanet Airmen?"
Beside the obvious, which is a new call to some standards in education, what is very much needed now
is FULL-GOVERNMENT FUNDING for our " 'Net Builders" recumbent only on a stipulation that their
work practices be above board and honest. We need tolerate NO more "hackers'" (Signal-'Jackers')
I am calling for the establishment of a new branch of the Armed Services to be a "SIGNAL CORP"
which will locate and remann those distant or hidden communications outposts, or complete put them out of commission, and NO 'CIVILIANS' should be "Authorised" to aquire these properties in the future! Instead of the US Federal Government 'privatising' Military Bases and Outposts, these lands
and buildings should revert to the park system, and the "SIGNAL CORP!" So that schools may benefit, ecology, and the technology! The CURRENT PRACTISE of letting "SCI-FI" writers, Hollywooders & 'puter whiz kids' (in fact just about ANYONE who has MONEY...) glom on to these
sites, has a few DANGEROUS drawbacks for a FREE SOCIETY! One...as with GUN CONTROL...
'you' are 'asking' good people to take it on the chin-for no reason! And more amazoningly, you are doing this after 'going up onto the mountain!' AMERICA is the LIGHT of the WORLD! AND not surprisingly there ALREADY are a LOT of STRANGE CHARACTERS out there trying to RUIN/RUN it
in GOVERNMENT...so to allow a CORPORATE entity...let alone PRIVATE INDIVIDUALS, who have
CORPORATIONS which are larger than MANY NATIONS...to let them have their 'way' with AIR WAVES? No, this is DUMB! The CHANNEL has to be protected, the MESSAGE can be' naughty.'
What must invariable follow if you allow "WINSTON" to run the WEB in your part of the STATE without SUPERVISION, is that he will start thinking in terms of 'getting creative' right where the
MONEY can be had. And that is the COMMONS! (See?) So, PUBLIC SERVICE (ARMED FORCES!)
is what a democracy pivots on. The 'force' here is to rectify the MULTIPLE MISTAKES of the past-
but more importantly resolve current conflicts which allow anymousities and jealousies to grow-while a
veritable cornucopia is available to the major population areas due to the consolidating effects of a
very fast communications system which enable commerce and supports lifestyle choices. Only one
real matter must be addressed-just as in a society which is 'over policed' there is 'no possibility' for 'crime' so one lives in a very criminalised and dangerous culture-but in a scoiety which is lightly-but CORRECTLY policed, one has the POSSIBILTY of crime, but the numbers remain very low, because FREEDOM is it's OWN reward, the CITIZEN takes advantage of the BLESSINGS and a era of PEACE
kicks-in,, the other culture has no dearth of turmoil, insurrection, and finally is disassembled. If we can get the Government to put ALL it's RESEARCH monies into the 'NET, and give PRIORITY to real
workers who love the darn thing, and pay them well what they're worth-and give them properties to go with the job, which they will share with Park Rangers, Professors, Scientists, etc.-the 'management' of these formerly CORRUPT areas will fall into line, and even former 'mobsters' can be 'pensioned off' at a rate-of-pay, or by REWARDS (Monetary Spoils) which will induce them to bring forward their many talents to the common good-(they can get to p;lay with their grandchildren at the beach!) we need ALL talents, but we have to hold some standards, and one might be that for the sdake of DIVERSITY we may have to start to recognise the DIFFERENCES within the abilities of INDIVIDUALS and stop rewarding just those who can spin a good line of bullshit or who lift someone's property when they're not looking?
Well, that's my suggestions for today-April 1st, our April Fools' Day, and have supplied a few fun reads here-reminding some of you that new proposals always sound a bit strange until you compare them to actual history-"Who knew......?"
