Conspiracy Theories

RobertOz, Just for Grins and Giggles, take a look at Zeitgeist.com Not all of it is totally factual but enough of it is to make you think. Suggestion: have a good stiff drink ready after the part about 9/11.

GA DCad, That is true in all cases, it is human nature. The science is to look at the situation from as many angles as possible and try to figure out the interested parties, their level of commitment, their goals and agendas. While trying to quantify your own biases. Not always easy when so many stir the pot. Also many times the parties who started are not the parties who finished. The truth is more dynamic than any fiction. Emotions, Egos, Reputations, Convictions, and acts of nature all come into play. Add to that the victor putting their own spin on the history. Oh what a tangled web we weave.

Hi Blue,

Another movie that can make you 'think' is 'V for Vendetta', if you can look past the 'comic book'. Fictionalized, I know, but with some poignent moments as they attack their government, and begin to understand HOW things got the way they WERE. One particularly thoughtful moment for me, was when 'V', in a public announcement, told all that the real enemy was no further than their mirror ... indeed WE are to blame when things get 'out of control'.

From another angle, and substantiating what you said about "... the public never told all ...", I had a friend who worked for one of the major aviation developers, who told me 'bits' about many things he had worked on (anti-gravity, hypersonic travel, communication with dolphins, VFL communications through the earth [only until they discovered that the Navy was already doing it]). I asked him how they kept these 'secrets' from leaking out, and he told me about 'gray propaganda' ... you leak PART of the truth to a very non-credible source. He said some of the things we 'see' in rags such as 'The National Inquirer' were actually 'leaked' by his group. No one believes such a rag, so fantastic stories about really crazy things just serve to 'deflate' any real truths that might be discovered. An interesting idea ... sounds logical ... wonder if it's true?

Take care ...

[join the group at CR4 ... I'm pretty sure we are not a conspiracy, although we DO have some pretty interesting opinions ]

Did you actually not meant VLF (Very Low Frequency) Communications when you wrote:-"VFL communications through the earth"?

You could be seen to be starting your own "conspiracy" with mixing up the letters in such a manner!!!

I have done quite a lot of private investigation of VLF with regard to detecting metals and differentiating between them. Quite an interesting hobby that I followed from time to time for the last 40 years or so.....
