	I think I know more about physics and its manipulation by state
	mafias than you do.

	bottom line : you criticize the scientific mafia ONLY if they
	say stuff you don't like. When your scientfic, state-funded
	mafia vomits nonsense about the global reheating apocalypsis,
	you love them.

	Not sure what you mean. Do you have any counterarguments for
	Huxley? 

	So far, apart from your enviro-friendly, off-topic tangent, I
	don't think you said anything too relevant to the problem of
	technically efficient propaganda, brainwashing, mind-control or
	whatever term is appropriate.
