Moore: I have just read on the PNEWS list your article on Human Rights and the New World Order. I thought that it was a brilliant summation of the current global changes being wrought by the corporate elite. Thank you for providing it to me and to all your readers. To me one of the most powerful counterforces to the "inherent sociopathic amorality" is likely to be an informational resource where people interested in extending human rights might turn for details on the corporate players in the NWO and the activities of their economic, propaganda, social and military wings. Right now a good deal of information is available but widely scattered. Corporate pollutions records in the U.S. are available from the EPA, corporate track records are available in the archive of the Multinational Monitor and so on. But as far as I know there is no central repository that people and their governments can turn to for details on imminent disasters that are about to engulf them. It is as though the British Enclosure movement were being replayed globally with the entire planet at stake. Thus it seems that we (humans) have not yet learned to effectively cope with the phenomenon, so it has escalated. Do you have any ideas on an organization that might be willing to sponsor such a global information source and make it available on the Internet? Best regards, Tom Parker •••@••.••• @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ Anyone have any ideas for Tom?

She covers a lot of ground in that piece, and is extremely good not just on the subject of education (she also covers communism/socialism, feminism, the role of the book). I will try to recall as best I can -- please forgive me, I did read it a long, long time ago. Doris herself was an early dropout, and when later people wrote to her saying they were doing scholarly pieces on her book this or that, it must have been flattering. However, what bothered her was that typically, the students had written in to ask who were the major critics of her work. Her response was, well, if you must write about my book, why don't you put down what you think, instead of worrying about the critics? And the response came, because that is what is demanded. (My own view is that we have all been perverted as school children with the emphasis on "the right answer.") She points out, that to evaluate a system, you must look at the rejects of the system, as she herself was. If one were to be honest with children in the education system, one would have to tell them that the system was designed to indoctrinate them. Some of the best would not survive through the process, but most of the rest would be indoctrinated. We have not succeeded in evolving a system of education that doesn't do this. Now, please go read the original, and do flame me if my precis is terrible. Arun Mehta, B-69 Lajpat Nagar-I, New Delhi-24, India.

A man with Alzheimers, who forgot today what he had decided yesterday? How convenient! People treat Nazism as this horror that could not possibly happen to anyone except the horrible Germans. Well the Germans are people just like you and me, we are as gullible for this sort of thing as they were. True, they had exceptional circumstances -- our current leaders are better at marketing, though, than Goebbels ever was. Arun Mehta, B-69 Lajpat Nagar-I, New Delhi-24, India.
