Well - I have a purpose for this little corner of the internet now. I have decided this is my dumping grounds. I have a toolbar link to dump as I go. It will come as I find it - no particular rhyme or reason - as I bounce around this wonderland of information we call the internet. Hope you find something of interest - you may just get an idea of just who I am by what I find valuable. Enjoy.

It's the Bankers or Us
Caveat - I typically don't go out of my way to listen to Mr. Jones - he's over the top, loud and somewhat pompous ... but he has some valid points now and then ... this is one of them. In fact ... I think what he is saying is related to the real reason for the sudden slam on Julian Assange - it didn't escape my attention that things heated up exponentially for him after he mentioned 'leaking' some info from a major bank ... yeah ..

Don't shoot messenger for revealing uncomfortable truths | The Australian
Don't shoot messenger for revealing uncomfortable truths | The Australian:
"WIKILEAKS deserves protection, not threats and attacks.
IN 1958 a young Rupert Murdoch, then owner and editor of Adelaide's The News, wrote: 'In the race between secrecy and truth, it seems inevitable that truth will always win.'
His observation perhaps reflected his father Keith Murdoch's expose that Australian troops were being needlessly sacrificed by incompetent British commanders on the shores of Gallipoli. The British tried to shut him up but Keith Murdoch would not be silenced and his efforts led to the termination of the disastrous Gallipoli campaign.
Nearly a century later, WikiLeaks is also fearlessly publishing facts that need to be made public."
