    Keep up the good work Jagman!
    Please ignore the venomous serpents who have crawled into your thread.
    Those who can do, those who can not spread vitriol and dissent.
    The only venom I see here, frankly, is your attack on a perfectly neutral and diplomatic post, and your aggressive attempt to divide us.

    Can't we disagree on amicable terms? Calling fellow members names is spreading vitriol and dissent. Don't be a hypocrite.
    Indeed. That kind of a response was immature and uncalled for. If that isn't a vitriolic message itself then I don't know what is. Venomous serpents, seriously? Frankly I am quite disappointed when I see what kind of behaviour is showing here on Avalon too after the most divisive US presidential elections ever. I thought that we are above this political ideology-game which has made America even more chaotic. I'll spare the critic here, but this forum is certainly biased on some ways.

    I am glad that you are happy about receiving that letter, Jagman. At least you tried to inform people about important matters.

    Thank you for your response WInd. William Forschen author of (One Second After) estimates, using government numbers we would loose 90% of our population in the first year after our grid goes down. Roughly 340 million people dead! Also if the US goes down, so will Mexico & Canada and so many more! We all are looking at a real life Walking Dead scenario ( minus the zombies)

    I've been trading emails with my state representative informing her of the conversations I've had with numerous deputies as well as other law enforcement officials.

    My state representative is Sherrie Sprenger who served as Oregon State Police.

    I informed her that all law enforcement I spoke to had never heard of ASPD and certainly weren't trained to understand or deal with sociopaths of which most their business comes from IMHO.

    This post motivated me to write mr. President and inform him of the shortcomings of some.

    I wrote President Nixon when I was a child and received a letter.

    I wrote Barack Obama a letter with no response:https://projectavalon.net/forum4/show...er#post1070061

    It feels like any response or lack thereof is telling?

    I'd guess it's highly likely that any letter to any White House in the last 20 years would be opened automatically, scanned automatically, OCR'd automatically, checked automatically for certain keywords (such as threats), and then replied to automatically.

    I'd bet several cups of good that no human ever reads anything, unless it's specially flagged from the keywords.

    To test the hypothesis, write to him again, but this time in your own handwriting. If I'm right, you'll not get a reply. The automation won't be smart enough to read what you wrote, or to capture the name and address.

    The posters apologized several times for busting Jagman's bubble. So being polite is part of their response.
    I guess I missed the vitriol. All I could see in the posts pointing this out was truth.
    Since when did honesty become cause for anger and name calling around here, DNA?

    Good try though, Jagman. Your heart's in the right place.

    You guy's do realise that Australia has agreed to give the US 2.3 Trillion (taken directly from our pension funds, mind you) that the US is going to supposedly invest back into their infrastructure?

    That letter is a copy and paste. The only thing they'd replace is the name of the gamily / person and the address at the top. Kinda sad you got excited over it.

    This is the classiest post I've seen around here in a long time. I believe it has raised the level of discourse on this thread immeasurably.
    Thanks!
    Namaste,

    Well, at least you guys are calling it an investment and offering expertise in infrastructure expensing. So good on you. The Japanese, who hold $1.1 trillion of US debt, and the Chinese, who hold a further $1.2 trillion in IOUs are, so far, passively waiting for the payback dates.

    Congratulations! It's that intrinsic value that our soul feels when we do something good that is of value.

    I'm so happy for you, Jagman!

    That's how we build Integrity.

    The fact that you did it is the greatest factor about this whole thing.
    You are an inspiration!

    Now, I'm going to have to write to someone and take action that way. I've been procrastinating.

    "The pen is mightier than the sword."

    The intentional energy is powerful. Putting a thought to paper manifests spirit (ideas) into reality (ink and paper). There's something scientifically valuable that is subtle beyond most of our recognition and comprehension.

    Way to go!
