I was agreeing. The thing I find the most frighting in 1984 is not the fact everyone is watched but the idea of the power controling the media has. I have no real interest weather it is the democrats or the republicains who control 51% of the media sources in the states. Already the fact that it can be said is a bad sign. It means that for the vast majority of people their information source is controled by the political machine. Most people will believe almost blindly what the are told. Hence my referance to 1984. I would love to continue this but I am taking my son to ireland tomorrow for three weeks so I wont be really checking the internet. Going to spend the time sailing. So have fun all.
