For some of us, in some of the areas we live, it's just a part of growing up. Because of things like that, I have a big problem with not being able to roam around my own town/city/block without having government issued video cameras in my face 24/7.

The video cameras are a great idea though. London has a huge system of cameras in its streets and they go a long way to cutting down crime. It's not like the smaller towns could afford it anyways, but imagine how helpful it would be in a place like Miami for example.

its things like this that make me want to move to some deserted island somewhere :no: Wait 10 years when everyone is drafted into the the 3rd world war, and all this stuff is used. We'll all die.

Maybe thats a bit dramatic, but still...this stuff worries me.

I just have to share the following quote from one of my recent dreams...This kind of stuff totally freaks me out! Not because of the dream, but because it's just wrong to watch a persons every move...and I don't want to be watched while I'm walking down the street. I am not okay with public surveylance in any way. Let the police do the jobs we pay them to do...

He shuts the door and starts to roll up the window and I say, "No, now come on, just wait a minute. Seriously, I just want to ask you a quick question." He's holding a crack pipe in his hands (I'm not sure what a crack pipe looks like, but I knew it was one.) and he just looks at me and says, "Fine...ask your question." I make it quick because I know he doesn't want to talk to me and ask, "I just want to know why you're smoking crack in the parking lot of the police station. I meen, of all the places you could go...why the police station?" He looks like he's pleasantly surprised by my question and looks at me and says, "Well, why not? They're [parking lots] all police stations anyway, aren't they? I mean everywhere you go; gas stations, grocery stores, banks...they all have cameras inside and in the parking lots and you're being watched everywhere you go and they could call the police...so why not just go to the police station?" I look at him with wonderment at the answer I received...like I had just been imparted with some great wisdom and said, "Thanks!" and he just looked at me, gave me the John Travolta wink and two finger wave and went back to smoking crack as I walked into the police station.

Scientist/Sci-fi author David Brin wrote some essays years ago basically predicting that the end of privacy is inevitable, but not such a bad thing. The way he saw it, even if government holds on to these technologies as long as they can, eventually they will come into the hands of the people, and then not only will the powerful be able to know what anyone is doing at any time, but anyone will be able to know what the powerful are doing. With the end of privacy comes total transparency.

Or make him take PrintScreen pics of you and distribute them all around the internet, on his lunch break. Talk about a plan blowing up in your face! :chuckle:

Any chance to become famous. :P

Another thing you should be concerned about is the high level of DHMO (dihydrogen monoxide) found in drinking water all across the world. For those who don't know DHMO is a clear liquid whose use results in thousands of deaths each year. It is used in a large amount of industrial process and is a potent greenhouse gas.

Yes. Let's ban DiHydrogen Monoxide!

Sorry, wrong topic

LOL, I read your JT journal post just now...he is a slipery dude! We'll have to keep our eyes on him when he shows up in dreamland!! John Travolta...I don't even know where that dream came from, lol!
