  I don't particulalry like the guy but when researching the organisation's connection to the UN I stumbled upon Robert Kings expose of the subject. It's called Strange Bedfellows. It is still to this day I believe the most comprehensive account of the issue. This was enough for me and my wife to leave. Here is a link to the article:-

  2. friends

  i have a few which still either anger me, make me sad or just make me grateful that i am no longer one of them.

  1 - "well, everyone is going to die anyway, so if it at armageddon then ce la vie" 2 - "the disater today at the world trade centre is sad, but exciting" 3 - (an elder) "when armageddon happens, i want to be at a window, watching it all".

  Give it some serious consideration as you make your decision.

  Thanks for the input Aud. I've been weighing it up for a while.

  Will probably go for the implant.
