Tinker pretends to misunderstand words and then attacks them, it's one of his oldest tactics and very ineffective. I've never really figured out why he does that.

[noddy]

its not just tinker, its the ho hum normality of different perspectives interacting and it cuts both ways, we all have our own interpretations of various words... queue some nonsense about lies.

it does cut both ways, thats for sure.

Well there is genuine misunderstanding and there is purposeful tactic. Tinker has had these things explained to him dozens of times.

Redneck Comic Commentator* Earl Pitts updated his opinion on Occupy Wall Street (OWS) today.

My apologies to Earl if I don't get this exactly right................ This is the gist (IMHO), not his exact words......

Previously after hearing about the topless women and alleged free sex occurring, Earl had opined that OWS sounded interesting and that he intended to do some hands on investigation............

Today Earl said that while he certainly was not with the "1%" he had doubts that he was with OWS either. Said that as he saw it, there was the 1% Wall Street types and the 1% Occupy types and the 98% of the rest of US UhMerikuns......
That the Occupy types were too unlike people like him..........

*Actually humorist, Gary Burbank.........





Disclaimer: the above is possibly the opinion of Earl Pitts/Gary Burbank............

i understand the atomisation, i understand the craving for a small village.... and i fear the consequences unless they happily form their own new groups of consent, without resorting to politics and changes in the law.

stuff that works, ermm.. works.. if you need a change in the nature of humanity and the global consciousness, you need a miracle from hairy guys in the sky.

Wow, Fox Business and I are on the same side of this issue.

I think it's about the mind's ability to abstract the realities of daily life. There are whole layers of skills (neural pathways) that are required for the architecture that allows the human brain to comprehend ordering take-out. All kinds of things we are completely cognizant of and take for granted. They'll accept our currency, we know what roads they'll use, we trust that our voice can be transmitted over an electric current across vast distances, we trust our banking institutions to resolve the transaction. It's whole layers of human behavior, people performing certain ritualistic action that leads to people from Thailand spicing beef raised in Pennsylvania, being delivered to your door by someone from Mexico in plastic containers made in China.

The 'human nature' argument assumes that certain things about human action are inevitable, when we have fundamentally altered the very specific actions we take throughout our day.

People within the Occupy movement are looking forward to the Spring. Seeing a dwindling of activity during the winter doesn't seem to phase anyone or dampen their spirits for what will come in 2012.
