PEGASUS RESEARCH CONSORTIUM on Fringe Radio

[PLAYSWITHMACHINES]

Yes, and.....yes

If i remember, i said "for a start, there's no money, everything is free"

ST is a good example of TAP in action, even if it's only for entertainment.
Those trekkies would like nothing better than for this to happen, they all do (like we do) want to see humanity change into a free & caring society, capable of great things.

As bizzare as it may seem...YES there IS money in Startrek and in many forms. Starfleet use some sort of credits system, others like the Ferrengi use Gold Pressed Platinum. 

[PLAYSWITHMACHINES]

Ah credits as in 'virtual gold'?

The Ferenghi are total bar-stewards IMHO
They place personal gain above all else, they are even worse than the Scots

[Amaterasu]

Actually, the Ferengi used "gold-pressed LATINUM," not platinum...  [grin]

From:  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fictional_currency

Currencies in science fiction face particular problems due to futuristic technology allowing matter replication and hence forgery. Authors have proposed currencies that are incapable of replication such as the non-replicable "latinum" used by the Ferengi in the Star Trek universe

And as long as We have "credits" of ANY kind, the psychopaths WILL matriculate to the top of the credit (money)/power heap.

[PLAYSWITHMACHINES]

Yes.
Let's try to find a way of stealing some of Z's gold.....

Easy to do when you have a replicator   But we don'y have one of those yet

ST is a good example of TAP in action, even if it's only for entertainment.

It is also a PERFECT example of a NWO government... but the PTB have made CTers think a NWO is a vile thing....  win for them... those that want to see the OWO continue doing business as usual

America started out as a NWO... but the OWO soon squashed that and made the founder organizations into evil Illuminati

Amy, you should use Star Trek as an example to get your point across, maybe.

Yup and start pushing for a NWO  wake people up to the fact that they have been duped into hating the wrong thing

[zorgon]

Yes.

THIS gold?

If ST had electronic funds/credits/money, yeah.  Except such freedom to explore, etc., would NOT be NWO approach.  Darth Vader is closer.

They're not hating the wrong thing.  ST is not even close to NWO in approach to life.  In the NWO Humans are less than cattle and They want to control every aspect of life.  In ST, ALL life has VALUE.

I don't want a new world ORDER; I want a release to the natural stigmergic emergence from chaos that society truly is.
