    I wondered:

    And Samantha invited me to her cuckoo-nest cell:

    We also might muse about some new uploading techniques that are not
    available yet. I would really like to expand the body-mind-continua of some
    of our war supporters into the bodies of ALL wounded but survived Iraqi
    civilians after Desert Storm II with no more arms and legs and their guts
    being fallen out so our hawks might experience their pain in a 10 second
    wave of encompassing sympathy. This therapy device and the fierce
    determination to defend my pacifist live with a gun if necessary could be a
    new kind of active pacifism that might win the respect of those who
    call us insane today.

    Talking about this I remember a comic I saw in the 1970s where some hippies
    ran away from the police. They passed a mansion with a huge iron fence and
    there were iron flowers woven into this fence. So, one of the hippies
    stopped, grabbed one of the iron flowers, turned around and waited for the
    policemen with the flower in his hand, ready to fight. The comic was titled
    "flower power".

    And we should definetely keep online contact with the people of Spain.
    Though their president is one of the most submissive vassals of the Bush
    administration, 91 - ninety-one - per cent of the Spanish people is against
    a war on Iraq. There were five million people protesting in many Spanish
    cities last weekend. I bet no important US newspaper wrote about those
    events. If Mike Lorrey was right with his insanity statement this would mean
    a never before experienced boom of the American building industry. Imagine
    how many CLIPs (CLinic for Insane Pacifist) they would have to erect in
    Spain to concentrate all the insane in appropriate camps.

    Power to the insane!

    Fight the assholicity of the Iraq war plans!
