One problem with the MAPS link is that most people don’t go through the “trouble” of reading all the information. They take one look at that page and they’re outta there, on to the next thing. Unfortunately, people want their info in little, easily digestible sound bytes. They’re lazy when it comes to getting the real information. Therefore, it’s easy to lead them astray with disinformation, mass-media spin doctoring, bullshit political posturing, and straight out lies. People like you and I will read and absorb the entire document, but we’re the exception, not the rule, unfortunately. But that’s no reason to stop trying to get the truth out.

Our very lives depend on the truth. At least the *quality* of our lives does, anyway.

Listen to Bill Hicks!

Thanx for your comment.
