No, we don't even acknowledge it anymore it happens so often. And anyway I've called him before when he's not been in and his wife answered the phone - same click happened, about 30 seconds into the conversation.

You should say "leave 'the kit' in the park by the third bench and I'll pick it up tomorrow at noon" and see what happens :D

Quote: Lee Henman @ January 25 2009, 5:26 PM GMT

How do you know this? And if it's not somebody listening, what is the click? It only ever happens when I talk to him and it's been happening for years.

Read up on it ages ago, basically the information is in electonic form and it's upto them if they choose to keep it.

The scary thing is our weak, cowardly governments don't know what to do with this data.
They're just desperately scared of opinion polls and looking bad. Oh and all this referers to what we know and what's out in the open.
Turns out that half the reason for the credit crunch is there's a shadow banking system no one was monitoring.

F**k I'm sounding like David f**king Ike.

I know it's a joke, but spreading this kind of attitude is exactly what keeps so many people from daring to reach a conclusion that is contrary to what they've been officially told because they don't want to be laughed at and ridiculed by the f**king morons that prefer to keep their head safely in the sand.

Quote: Aaron @ January 25 2009, 5:32 PM GMT

Follow my example, and make your life so f**king dull that no one would want to listen in on your phone calls.

Seriously, I'd know if people were. I'd have been sued for causing death by brain haemorrhaging.

Any idea how suspicious that must seem.,...

I'm surprised that it's taken so long for people to finally catch up with things. I remember a few years ago when I told my friend that 9/11 may not have happened and I gave her reasons why I believed this. She just looked at me and blinked.

Thank f**k for the internet.

Oh.

You can. Everyone but me and Lee will laugh you off the site though.

On the other hand, while you shouldn't believe everything governments tell you, you shouldn't believe everything you read on the Internet or hear in the pub either.

I totally agree. That's what really pisses me off when I express an opinion that runs contrary to the media/government version, and people just laugh as if I've joined the loony bandwagon without any thought or research. It's because they just assume you're like them and doing what they've done only to the opposing view Unimpressed

Of course the flip side is this maybe a natural stage of our evoloution and no bad thing.
1 Tracking lost childrensthat's good.
2 CCTV makes me feel safer and if you matched it to an inbuilt chip no more fleeing the scene of crime.
3 No passports or credit cards a wave of the hand and your through.
4 A complete and total elimination of benefit fraud saving billions.
5 If libraries and schools and shops know whos using them at all times no more opening hours.
6 A warning system that keeps paedophiles away from schools or violent alcoholics from pubs.

We're a herd pack animal at heart and all constant monitoring would do is strengthen that very healthy instinct. The right to not participate in society, is that such a great and wanderous prvilege?

To live in a fearful little huddle which only really protects the guilty, because your silly little secrets are so important to you?

News flash no one cares if you opposed the gulf war or smoked some dooby or think Gordon Brown is a cock.

If you break the law, including incorrectly packing your bin or not registering staff. Tough shit the laws the law, don't like it? Move to Somalia.

That's a fair point too.

Sooty, what exactly do you think the 'new world order' is, as stated on dollar bills (since 1940)? I'm curious.

I'd love to hear where you get this one from?

Yes.

Oh for f**k sakes, "new world order?"
The US was founded by a bunch of pissed up Freemasons who liked silly jokes.
There is no secret conspiracy running the world.

Well apart from us Jews, but that's more of a hobby than anything.

The infuriating thing is most supposed "conspiracies" happen in absolute plain sight. From Hitlers rise to power, to the crappiness of WMD evidence.

Conspiracies are phenomenally dnagerous to democracy and free speech. They encourage an idiotic nihilism and fear of the democratic process which really does help fascism.

Oh and by the way Al Quaeda exist, we're just lucky for the time being we're winning the war with them.
