Mark,
toad has made some excellent points and it's a little scarey that you, who displayed no logical thought process on the subject, should speak out so adamantly. Your own webpage "Surfing The Apocalypse" has what seems to be 100's of links to news stories from "mainstream" sources...what's up with this? Or, are we to trust you to read and review stories and then post what you feel is okay for us to read? Mark, Uncle Sam wants YOU...he wants you bad!!! Really, you are displaying the type of "reasoning" the current administration just loves...it is also very popular in certain other governments as well; perhaps it could even get you knighted by good ol' Queen Liz. After all it displays the finest in Monarchist thinking... ;~)

Thanks, but I think I'll stick to reading as much as possible from every available source and just trust my own judgement as to what's valid. I'm fairly confident of my own reasoning abilities and you've left me seriously in doubt of your own....
