What do you think?
I only think what I am told here like the rest of the cult.

The trouble is that if you repeatedly start threads by posting links with requests for other peoples' opinions of them, without expressing any opinion yourself, it makes you look kind of like a troll. As does your second post here, as well.

New word order will be difficult as long as English has a mostly syntactic grammar, except for when Sentinal is trying to use it. Oh wait, you said WORLD order.
HA! Fake. Cats will never be the masters of the world so long as we control the can openers!

Would you like a New or Old world wine with that?

Hey, I'd believe anything on a website featuring the sentence:
Yes, that's technically poisoning the well, but rubbish like educateyourself doesn't deserve being taken seriously.

I'd like some wine from Australia, the World of the Future (at least compared to us western hemispherians).
Eric Idle has just what you want. (Caution: The following is vulgar and disgusting, unsuitable for dear little yoofs; just what you'd expect.)

one of my favorite python bits. i'm horrible at evaluating wines so when someone asks me a question about a wine i'll usually just pop out with one of those lines. "Really opens up the sluices at both ends."
BTW, John Cleese did a serious 2 or 3 part special on wines that's pretty good.
my favourite lines in that sketch:
Of the sparkling wines, the most famous is Perth Pink. This is a bottle with a message in, and the message is 'beware'. This is not a wine for drinking, this is a wine for laying down and avoiding.

I think that we should not try to explain by conspiracies, that which may be adaquately explained by normal herding and schooling behavior.
Fish don't have to communicate to swim in a school. They just have to all execute the following algorithm.
1. Swim at the average speed of your neighbors.
2. Don't bump into other fish.
Similarly, anyone put in control of an assembly line will quickly discover the following algorithm.
1. Speed up the line until the error rate becomes unacceptable.
2. Reduce speed by epsilon.

i happen to believe that there is an INSANE ammount of corprate influence in government that leads to corruption and colaboration between members of "opposing" parties to establish common agenda and present differing social agenda to create the impression of a difference of opinion...
i guess that could be considered the nWo... but that term has a stigma that seems to make people think your paranoid, so i dont like to use that term, or illuminatti for the same reason

Illuminatti is a very specific fictional conspiracy; so that would be different from calling something a "New World Order" which is a term somewhat ingrained in our culture; and renewed by a portentious (or careless) turn of phrase by George Bush Sr.
Do you know what spooks me? The thought of a "conspiracy" that emerges without a head. Opposing parties present the illusion of difference between them; power is consolidated and corrupted; and behind it all pulling the strings? Nobody. What if everyone's taking a small part in a spontaneous social machine, leading us to some unknown, unplanned, but increasingly inevitable destiny. It feels like being a passenger in a car with no driver.
