I often find the need to re-open old threads because too often new threads by me got moved into Anything Goes due to their association with 'conspiracy':rolleyes:

It specificly states '12 major routes'. Do they really think terrorists will take those routes if they don't want to be found?

Bit of a freudian thing -completely off-thread, Less. The four "Noses" -when do they change? Not that they bother me, of course.

Spring is on it's way -am thinking Easter Bunnies, bells, chocolate eggs, bows. Blue bell woods, daffodils...if you want to get more profoundly involved with my though processes...
:rolleyes::D

Summer is on it's way...:hothothot

It transpires that Orwell arranged for Huxley to be sent a copy of his book, and recently a letter has surfaced which Huxley sent to Orwell in which he commented on it.

You can read the letter here
Letters of Note: 1984 v. Brave New World

A cartoon has been drawn to illustrate the main differences between their visions of future.
You will find it here (need to 'expand +' to read it)

It seems that both versions of 'future' were right to some extent.

In Brave New World they have a drug called Soma which makes people hallucinate and go on a holiday in their heads!
