type='text'>SAME OL' DOUBTS...BRAND NEW FEARS...9.6.08</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffffff;"&gt;................&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Algore Crowd is spreading a Climate of Doubt.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Stimulating the new Fear Fueled Economy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These efforts are backed by such environmental stalwarts as DOW Chemical, DuPont, and the newer greener Waste Management Corp.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Using Toons and Tunes to reach young people, these Ecobabble spouting grifters are developing the need.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Someone has to bring all the new clean energy related gadgetry to market.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;By pitching their bogus concerns RE Global Warming, and treating the populace like so many pre-programmed lab rats, Algorites have taken the lead.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Buy our line, or it all goes Kablooie!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Scare ‘em enough, and they’ll buy our stuff.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It always works.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In Ancient times, guys like Algore used unusual Celestial Events, along with the threat of getting your heart cut out and eaten during one of these unusual events, as a means of getting their point across to the unknowing masses.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Today, unusual Celestial Events have been explained, and public heart eating has fallen out of fashion.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, we get DOW’s “Human Element” advertising campaign, and such GeoEngineering hype as “Discovery Project Earth” in their place.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;DOW promotes ‘adding the Human Element’ to the equation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Put us right up there with all the other Elements of Nature shown on the periodic table.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These ads are intended to make us feel like Nature Personified, waiting to bond with the Universe.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We go together like H, 2, and O.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I guess these Folks just learned that they &lt;em&gt;are&lt;/em&gt; Nature, eh?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That’s a large part of the problem we face.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The leaders of the ceaseless War &lt;em&gt;on&lt;/em&gt; Nature are suddenly leading the charge toward acceptance of Humanity’s new role as simply another Element &lt;em&gt;of &lt;/em&gt;Nature.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Something tells me they’ve finally caught on that seeking Mankind’s Dominion over Nature is lose/lose since we &lt;em&gt;are&lt;/em&gt; Nature.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It’s time to cut, run, and hunker in the bunker until the dust settles.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But not before snagging whatever’s left to grab.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;Hu&lt;/span&gt; is the new symbol for the Element Humanity.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Huh?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Discovery Project Earth”, sponsored by DOW, hypes a bunch of Wackos with Degrees, attempting to repair Earth.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Discovery Channel takes the exact same approach as those TV shows that redecorate your home in one weekend for under a thousand dollars.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Project Earth offers such great suggestions as Reforesting Earth by parachuting millions of seedling trees with automatic planter/fertilizer attachments into deforested locations all over The Globe.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The promos show cute little ‘seedling bombs’ plopping onto the ground, splattering into countless blobs of Future Forest.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It’s more of a Slacker Arcade Scenario than Tree Huggin’, Granola Eatin’ Angst.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Progress is our most important product&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I guess that’s progress.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Arcade Slackers save Humanity’s Niche on Planet Earth, guided by Algore and his money grubbing minions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;All supported by the biggest polluters in History.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It’s the Natural Course of Events.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;From &lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;Huh?&lt;/span&gt; to &lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;Duh!&lt;/span&gt; in one easy lesson.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Keep it simple, stupid.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Make it easy to swallow...like warm, creamy Pablum, swirled with Maple Syrup.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;***&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Large investments have been made in alternative fuels, alternative lifestyles, alternative everything, it seems.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Those spreading the Climate of Doubt made these large investments, while poking fun at the Tree Huggin’, Granola Eatin’ Folks who generated the original alternatives.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It’s standard co-opting of innovative concepts.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Watch for any ideas that hit the cultural hot button.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Then, put them down as foolishly idealistic and hopeless.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Keep an eye on which ones persevere, and catch on even in the face of ridicule.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Embrace those that do, and finance them into the mainstream.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Consider the traditional twenty-five year adjustment period from bogus to brilliant, and it’s time for the newly refined alternatives to pay off.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We are about to enter The Future led by the same people whose wanton disregard for Nature created today’s frightening Global Climate, all decked out in their New Green Guise.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pretty silly, eh?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Every word is true, and getting truer by the moment.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1'

style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Easier said than done, eh?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Not really.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Give it a moment's thought.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;You've already developed several new impressions from simply opening this page.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;It's actually easier done than said.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;It took much longer to say this than it did for your new impressions to form.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Don'tcha think?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Author's Note...&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.smythspace.tv/"&gt;smythspace.tv&lt;/a&gt; is having technical problems that are too annoying to bother with right now.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;I can't make myself go TechHeaded enough to solve the problem without losing focus on the Fadda Eart project.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;That's pretty ironic in itself, because if not for this insidiously TechHeaded gadget, Fadda Eart would still be 'walkabout', and we'd be facing this EcoMess without his guidance.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;That said, The Further Adventures of Fadda Eart will take place right here for the time being.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span
