If you are on this list odds are you are not average.

Average is the people I just did jury duty with.

I am not a fan of that Ramtha person. She is quite egotistical.

But I would not dismiss the whole film out of hand. Some interesting comments were made that are valid.

Remember these people tried to explain the "unexplainable" at least using the frame of reference of the man in the street.

Try explaining the federal reserve to the average person. They may surprise you with the difficulty they have with some far simpler concepts than what "bleep" was trying to address.

As for Ramtha remember people dont want magic, they demand it.

A successful club owner told me that. I think he is correct.

Modern science is full of showmanship and misrepresentation as well.

Edison gets credit for Tesla's work and so on. Tesla invented the modern world far more than Edison or Westinghouse or Marconi. What does the average person know though?

We arent a tenth as clever as we think we are.

Here is a link to an entry in the skeptic's dictionary about the producer of that movie. Have a read and do a check on the 'experts' that appeared in that movie to see what their peers have to say about them if you want to have a good laugh.

Let me also add this note. I haven't checked the Pentagon site for this info. Maybe someone else would care to research it and verify. But here you. -- Mike DuPree

40,000 U.S. soldiers have deserted from military since 2000: report

printResizeButton();

Some 40,000 personnel from all branches of the U.S. military have deserted since 2000, U.S. media quoted Pentagon sources as saying Tuesday.

From the total, more than half had served in the U.S. Army, according to the report.

Anti-war organizations said that the mass desertions were due to the strong resistance to war which is more prevalent than the military has openly admitted.

"They (U.S. military) lied in Vietnam about the amount of opposition to the war and they're lying now," said Eric Seitz, an attorney who represents Army Lt. Ehren Watada, the first commissioned officer to refuse to join his brigade when it was sent to Iraq last month. He is now under military custody in Fort Lewis, Washington.

A 2002 Army report said that desertion was fairly constant but "tends to worsen during wartime."
