If entertainment requires a raised stage

If entertainment requires a raised stage it is likely not on a human scale. Better more entertainment with smaller gatherings of onlookers. Our scale is massively screwed up all over.

ALEC is the name of what corporations want to do to finish us all off save as consumers of the junk they decide we need

The Conservatives' ALEC Philosophy: Everything Related to Government Should Be Demonized, Starved or Privatized | Tea Party and the Right | AlterNet Don't kid yourself. This is what this is all about. It is two forms of happiness fighting. One is life as we have known it. Chronologizing our way to a better future by milliseconds and nanosteps. And then there is this reification machine that wants us to be Dostoyevskian piano keys blinking somnambulently at the screen and feeding our dying corpses with corn made by Archer Davis Midland. This is the sick option. It is the GOP option. It is the jaws of hell closing on us. And they have preempted the language of freedom to describe its slavery. To ALEC I say ---- off!

There is a way to avoid these horrendous so-called accidents

More Than 30 Dead in Indian Bus-Train Crash - The Daily Beast: "A horrific crash in India’s northern state of Uttar Pradesh has left at least 33 dead. Officials said a packed bus attempted to cross an express track at about 2 a.m." It is called avoiding the possibility of a direct collision. If there are thousands of these crossing debacles in the US there must be as many or more in India. The world needs to move beyond its current fatal commitment to 20th century transportation.

Car Death in the Desert Followup

Deadly off-road accident in Mojave spurs lawsuits: "At issue will be how much responsibility the owners of the land (the federal government) have for what happened, how much responsibility the organizers of the race (Mojave Desert Racing) will bear, and how much blame, if any, Sloppy should shoulder." Sorry there is no followup. As usual this stuff falls off the page and gets stirred into the pot of continual deaths related to the uses of automobiles and related vehicles. If you have followup please indicate.
