"I ran across a museum of old time ersatz chick things, ersatz of the ersatz era long generated by Hollywood, and was told there used to be a major grower of nubile young ersatz, film star forever virgins, in the region but now all you could get were the pitiful fake ersatz chicks on the corporate campuses, bisexuals, polysexuals, polymorphous sexuals, kaliedescopic deviants, tree humpers, auto fetishists, vulture capital putas, animal rights for horrific practices, and the perdurable ersatz coprophiliacs all across the ersatz golden west, the last dregs of ersatz America where men used to be men in military and western gun-shooting drag and women were indescribable if not innocent whores like momma and baby sister. Somewhere western novels took over western imagination and horses asses became ersatz heroes unable to appreciate the real chick thing so obsessed were they at dreaming of being motherfucked."JYA *brilliant*

Never mind guys, it's not LD. Just Timmy complaining about the moron factor. Good work on that, btw... Anyone know if this "mattd" snork is a real nutjob, or just a close lookalike? My money's on him self-destructing inside of a year. Too bad, he's doing our job for us, and doesn't even know it.

Two stories here. First, a judge rules you can't ban 'violent' videogames, and orders city to pay $$ to video arcades. Second, a Brit is charged for running a site offering training to members of his religion. We await the Al Qaeda Video Sim/Training Series... http://ap.tbo.com/ap/breaking/MGAD0PHC2WC.html http://www.starnews.com/article.php?legalfees04.html,news Man Accused of Running Terrorist-Training Internet Site Pleads Innocent The Associated Press Published: Jan 4, 2002 LONDON (AP) - A man accused of offering terrorist training over the Internet in the "Islamic art of war" pleaded innocent Friday to weapons charges. During a hearing at London's Bow Street Magistrates' Court, Sulayman Balal Zainulabidin denied charges of inviting others to train in firearms or explosives and of possessing a rifle without a certificate. Prosecutors said Zainulabidin, a 43-year-old kitchen worker from south London, was the founder and chief instructor of a group offering young Muslims training in martial arts, weapons and "the Islamic art of war." <snip> Video game judgment to cost city Indianapolis is ordered to pay $318,000 in legal fees industry spent fighting local law on violent games. By Maureen Groppe mgroppe(a)gns.gannett.com January 04, 2002 WASHINGTON -- Indianapolis' failed attempt to be the first U.S. city to keep minors from playing violent video games in public arcades is costing taxpayers more than anticipated. In a consent judgment approved this week by U.S. District Judge David F. Hamilton, Indianapolis has agreed to pay the video game industry $318,000 for lawyers' fees and other costs. The heads of the industry groups that successfully challenged the law's constitutionality said they have been "totally vindicated" and hope the penalty will discourage other governments from trying to enact similar bans. "To recover more than $300,000 in legal fees from the city is the icing on the case, especially since the city threatened that we would not only lose, but also pay its legal fees," said Jack Kelleher, executive director of the Amusement and Music Operators Association. <snip>

>>Closest in meaning in CP; abstracted from 4 a to mean a rebellious person Camus' lexicon define "revolt" as a peaceful, evolutionary process. He had hoped that mankind would evolve toward improved societies. In his ideal, socialism is the result of a natural historical process that does require effort and leadership, but not violence. "Remarque sur la rivolt" begins with a civil servant refusing an order. For Camus, revolt begins with a single person refusing an immoral choice. Laws and rule are not defensible for Camus unless they are meant to help society at all levels. The civil servant in the opening parable is an existential hero, though Camus would have rejected such a label. The bureaucrat makes a decision based not upon what is easiest for him but what is best for him and society as a whole. This man's revolt is resistance, not violence. Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel's works are the primary target of The Rebel. While not a perfect treatment of Hegel, Camus argues that Hegel's works glorified the state and power over personal morality and social ethics. Worse, according to Camus, Marxism co-opts Hegel and extends his theories to allow any means to an end. In Marxism, as embodied by the Soviet Union and its Communist Party, the state is always "right." Humanism and equality were important to Camus, not an artificial organization. Camus further offended some leftists by opposing what he considered a trend toward nihilism in European thought. Life was "meaningless" for Camus, but each person did have the opportunity to define a role for himself or herself in life. Nihilism rendered living pointless, which Camus could not accept. Mankind, by its very existence, was in the unique position of defining itself through choice. Attacking Hegel, Marxism and nihilism resulted in a resounding rejection by the left. Leftist critics hated The Rebel and described it as an act of intellectual treason. The May 1952 issue of Les Temps Modernes featured a review of The Rebel by Francis Jeanson. The review affected Camus deeply. Camus found himself described as a traitor to the left
