   Yay for Usenet, the true People Parliament.   
      
   Sad that there is virtually no natives on Usenet. Nobody to really   
   talk to about what is interesting. Reminds me: some Indian prophets   
   may have been right: at the end, the indians will be ignorant as   
   well, just as the whites. A long struggle would be needed. People   
   are running after their jollies, but they don't see the bigger picture   
   of greed & war, fundamental Imperial destabilization; industrial   
   evisceration, financial delapitation ;). Then when they finally see   
   it, it has already blown up in their face.
