@ CHURCH OF EUTHANASIA: The Church of Euthanasia was inspired by a dream in
  which Rev. Chris Korda confronted an alien intelligence known as The Being
  who speaks for inhabitants of Earth in other dimensions. The Being warned
  that our planet's ecosystem is failing, and that our leaders deny this.
  The Being asked why our leaders lie to us, and why so many of us believe
  these lies. Rev. Korda awoke from the dream moaning the Church's infamous
  slogan, SAVE THE PLANET--KILL YOURSELF!. http://www.enviroweb.org/coe/

: Are you ill/well/indeterminate? Would Earth be better off if you were dead
/alive/indeterminate? Should you be cured/killed/cloned? Are you a leader?
D'ya lie you others/yourself/me? D'ya make excuses for your failures? Yeah?

# Artificial Anasazi: DigiIndians Farm Computerized Landscape in Prehistoric
  Arizona. Computer modeling allows us to recreate prehistoric landscapes &

  can establish rules of conduct & replicate social units. Then we can turn
  down the rainfall � or turn up the population � and watch how this cyber-
  culture and its artificial people react. "The Sims" circa CE 1200:
