In Response To: Re: Talking some more...and more... (Phil)

: Hello as well. Thanks for dropping in, after almost a
: year, to enrich the discussion with some much needed
: raw statistical data. Even took the time to cite your
: sources. You just don't see that sort of diligence
: much anymore.

Well, reliable sources are hard to find in cases like this, where pretty much every political or business entity on the planet has something embarrassing to hide. We wouldn't even know what companies were listed in Iraq's weapons program dossier if a German newspaper hadn't leaked them...the U.N. Security Council had previously agreed to black out all the names before reading the thing so no one could be blamed. Almost all the other info floating around is from "anonymous official sources."

I'm sure there are a few netwise poli-sci majors left in the Myth community who could dig up a few tons of valid-sourced dirt for this discussion. I just had a bit of free time while starting grad school and thought I'd add in what I knew.

Not to derail this particular subthread, but what's everyone else up to at the moment? I see that Forrest continues to plot the overthrow of the old order, but other than that. :-)
