This is an op-ed written by Jerry White, founder of Survivor Corps and author of I Will Not Be Broken: Five Steps to Overcoming a Life Crisis, on the Fourth of July, 2008:

My first wish is to see this plague of mankind, war, banished from the earth.” These are not the words of a pacifist or peacenik. General George Washington, the canny military strategist and first leader of the American army, recognized that war is a horror. While we bask in our independence today, let us also recognize the price paid by those—then and now—who fight for it. After the Revolution, 25,000 Americans lay dead. About 25,000 more were seriously wounded or disabled. That is a high price, indeed, for our freedom. Since 1776, the world has fought more than 300 wars, and nearly 40 conflicts still rage. The cost remains steep.

At times there can be what is observed as a sudden slippage between similar time streams as a result of quantum interference. Effectively the quantum version of radio static. Human beings are a pattern in a particular quantum frequency. As such that pattern can bleed into nearby frequencies when there is a disturbance or power spike in that frequency.

Earlier this year I decided to see if it was possible to create an urban legend from scratch. To manufacture a completely a bogus story, a hoax, plucked straight from the catacombs of my mind, and pass it off as if it were fact. I decided to set-up a memes.org alter-ego, and under this temporary guise unleashed this unto the world.

I just posted a long blog which was shown as being posted in 1970 and then disappeared.  I have no idea if it will show up on your web site or not, and I don't know where to find it.

I wish your web site was more user friendly.   

According to hhavensteincw over at Slashdot, there’s a new Google Bomb campaign to get liberal bloggers to associate John McCain with a number of posts and articles that highlight “ugly” things about the Republican Presidential candidate:

So, guys, now that I have listened to the masses and removed that ads, what sort of polling question should I ask?  Maybe it should be simple: McCain or Obama?  Please let me know via the comments.

What is it? What does it want? Why does it attack? When will it strike? Where does it come from? How can we ever be safe again?
