For some people, when you say 'Timbuktu' it is like the end of the world, but that is not true. I am from Timbuktu and I can tell you we are right at the heart of the world" ---- Ali Farkat Toure ---- (worthy musician)
I thought this seemed like a good quote for people living anywhere on this incredible blue marble, called the Earth.
By the way - I'm watching everyone - you never know who might have just the right information. THOUGHT FOR THE DAY!"Th[e] modern susceptibility to conformity and obedience to authority indicates that the truth endorsed by authority is likely to be accepted as such by a majority of people, who are innately obedient to authority. This obedience-truth will then become a consensus truth accepted by many individuals unable to stand alone against the majority. In this way, the truth promulgated by the propaganda system-however irrational-stands a good chance of becoming the consensus, and may come to seem self-evident common sense." -- Edwards, David Burning All Illusions, p203
