-Caveat Lector-
The study of Mnemonics, memory enhancement by association,
was for centuries considered witchcraft, as were
mathematics. There are many ways to train and enhance the
mind but the people who control for profit do not want the
people to benefit from this, ergo the lacksadaisical and
mind numbing curriculum raging like wildfire through America
Today...The meanest animals are the ones going praise jesus,
like the bushes, because they know how it dulls the mind,
and discourages real questioning outlooks...trust us they
say. No way I say.BG

DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER
==========
CTRL is a discussion and informational exchange list. Proselyzting propagandic
screeds are not allowed. Substance—not soapboxing! These are sordid matters
and 'conspiracy theory', with its many half-truths, misdirections and outright
frauds is used politically by different groups with major and minor effects
spread throughout the spectrum of time and thought. That being said, CTRL
gives no endorsement to the validity of posts, and always suggests to readers;
be wary of what you read. CTRL gives no credeence to Holocaust denial and
nazi's need not apply.
Let us please be civil and as always, Caveat Lector.
