You seem to be in distress, frustrated, and unaware of the way you sound from my 3rd person viewpoint. I understand your frustration with the lack of evidence in the phenomenon, yet it is best to remember to keep an open mind.
So how long is this thread going to hang on?

That's exactly right. Thanks, Essence. Look, the way I see it, one who would become offended is one who chooses to become offended. Taking offense to something someone does or says only serves to elevate one in their own self-righteous justifications.
My original post had 3 purposes:
1) To make someone laugh. To make light of what it is were doing here. If you couldn't laugh at some of what was in that post, well then, I'm sorry I guess I'm not funny enough for you. And if because of what was said you choose to ignore me, that's ok too, because from what I can tell, I probably wouldn't want to get a beer with you anyway.
2) For myself, because as much as I love a good conspiracy theory, which I do, sometimes I have to put it into context and realize that much of this I like to believe, I do so simply because I like to. Not because I really believed it - If I did, if WE did, we would be insane with paranoia. But then, you never know, and that's why its so fun.
3) For points. I knew that a post like this would get a lot of response, and I just happened to need a little extra server space for my avatar than what is afforded me for no charge.
Listen, I'm really sorry if I offended you, but even those I attacked directly took it better than you, so I think it would do you some good to just relax.

DeltaChaos, I just noticed you're located in Utah. How is it there? I am from SLC. I haven't been back there in 7-8 years.

Where did you go? It's about as cold as NephraTari out here man. I hope you're somewhere sunny and warm drinkin' a cocktail with an umbrella. I certainly hope you're not fighting a war somewhere...
