Hi Kari Lynn - That didn't work at Nuremberg. I'm wondering why it's not the same here. For some reason, there's some kind of glory in the 'obedience' factor, or pity/mercy for the 'brainwashed' factor, like being a good worker bee (drone) gets points. I'm not saying whether it's bad or good, I just wonder why it's different. Oh well, Nuremberg goes intergalactic, by the sounds of it. I don't get it.
To me, it's an interesting coincidence that Avalon Project at Yale (Documents in Law, History and Diplomacy) is right next door to this forum. Yale is also the home of Skull and Bones.
