   It's a perfect description of what are becoming [as a society]. TRUST? Who do   
   we trust anymore? Nothing was going to put that poor chicken's head back   
   on...and dinner that    
   night was great! One might wonder who will feast upon us [do I hear the CCP   
   honing their knives and forks]? But can TRUST be brought back? In our   
   discussion [neighbor and myself], we saw a close 2nd place in envelopment in   
   the idea of 'BELIEF". To    
   believe in something, one must have faith in it's essential virtue...a thing   
   of both goodness and strength. America's founding contained both...but too   
   many are trying to destroy it's virtue to gain power. Virtue itself will carry   
   on, no doubt. And    
   perhaps that's an even greater force of carry. In that, my own chicken body   
   seems to gain a connection, saved from my own mindlessness. Be good; Be   
   strong. Keep faith.

   Lived up to my great expectations. Wonderful people. Brilliant. But my Indian   
   friend said there was a lot of madness there. Came out in so many crazy gun   
   deaths.

   Who else could?   
   Technology made many Americans rich.   
   The clever ones who were not that rich wanted to get rich as quickly as   
   possible.   
   So they studied law, management and medicine. Quick, sure money there.   
   Not science and engineering, not much money there.   
   The smart alecs representing the get rich quick types gave away the technology   
   to China, to get cheap good instead, sell high at home and get really rich.   
   Now they have no brains left, except what they can import, and no   
   manufacturing advantage.   
   Once the Indians were smart (British education was superb, so Indians who came   
   to US in the 50-60s were outstanding) but after independence the education   
   system in India got stuffed. Too much rote learning, de-emphasis on the   
   basics, loss of spriitual    
   values, etc. So the Indians in US are second or third rate imports, as opposed   
   to those now 75+.   
   Like, the pathetic brown character in the BBT. Well, they are all pathetic, so   
   there.   
   All the great-great modern physicists In the US can do is to bullshit as   
   loudly as possible.   
   Just to keep on the myth of Jewish metaphysics, relating to finity and   
   creation, going, to get the funding from the dumb and deluded masses.   
   Sad.   
   Q. now is, does anyone among them have the guts to go thrrough my work and ask   
   me to give me a series of lecture demonstrations about my rail gun   
   experiments, and the implications from them? Which would then lead to newer   
   and greater things?   
   Let us see!   
      
   Cheers,
