I was mildly curious, and wow his speech is impressively rambling and dreadful, I'm betting his book is little better.

What a remarkably comprehensive incomprehension of selection.

[ffutures]

Well, that's special...

[rdm]

Wow.

All the individual *words* made sense. But nothing made sense as a whole.

Actually, a few early paragraphs hold together. They just don't connect to anything else.

I hypothesize without evidence (b/c life is too short to read MPR material) that the connections are pitched too high for most of us to pick up.

I'm just stuck on the idea that the Fabians are some sort of huge malign threat....

Some people *really* don't like 60s surfing movies?

[chomiji]

WTF did I just read?

[phantom_wolfboy]
