The basic technology already exists, so it can happen. School yourself now to never express anything except for a peaceful and calm reaction to all news and events. You are being watched. Right now. |

He had committed—would have committed, even if he had never set pen to paper—the essential crime that contained all others in itself. Thoughtcrime, they called it. Thoughtcrime was not a thing that could be concealed forever. You might dodge successfully for a while, even for years, but sooner or later they were bound to get you." "People simply disappeared, always during the night. Your name was removed from the registers, every record of everything you had ever done was wiped out, your one-time existence was denied and then forgotten. You were abolished, annihilated: vaporized was the usual word." 'It seemed to me,' said Wonko the Sane, 'that any civilization that had so far lost its head as to need to include a set of detailed instructions for use in a packet of toothpicks, was no longer a civilization in which I could live and stay sane.' |

Wouldn't at all be surprised to see it come to this - they already have retina-scanning devices in operations. Was it inspired from that movie? And the computer technology from Minority Report is also evidenced somewhat in the new ipads. So what's next??? |

In the back of every bus the TSA recording inspector will kick back with a cold beer in one hand a lit cig in the other. Listening to every conversation while trying to color within the lines. |

In the words of Bonnie Raitt, "let's give 'em somthing to talk about..." "oooh yeah baby, suck my c**k..." "Did you hear what the driver said when we got on the bus? Something about he had a b*mb and was gonna blow the sucker up?" |
