"Non-Existent" springs to mind... I think because the word "Tavistock" is (in your mind) mixed up with all those conspiracy theories you so disdain, you jump to the conclusion it "doesn't exist". Time for an LOL. www.tavinstitute.org/about/our_history.phpThe Tavistock Institute of Human Relations was formally founded as a registered charity in September 1947. In our early work we brought together staff from different disciplines to find ways to apply psychoanalytic and open systems concepts to group and organisational life. Sounds harmless enough, right? Just a think tank for ideas that help corporate customers... Hmmm, who knows, but perhaps JS2 would say (if he had bothered with Googling this) that Tavistock exists, but is not the nefarious mind control entity that they are accused of being?

artsbeat.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/09/16/mary-travers-of-peter-paul-and-mary-dies/?hpMary Travers, whose ringing, earnest vocals with the folk trio Peter, Paul and Mary made songs like “Blowin’ in the Wind,” “If I Had a Hammer” and “Where Have All the Flowers Gone?” enduring anthems of the 1960s protest movement, died Wednesday night in Danbury Hospital in Connecticut. She was 72 and had lived in Redding, Conn. The cause was cancer, said her spokeswoman, Heather Lylis. Ms. Travers brought a powerful voice and an unfeigned urgency to music that resonated with mainstream listeners. With her straight blond hair and willowy figure and two bearded guitar players by her side, she looked exactly like what she was, a Greenwich Villager straight from the clubs and the coffee houses that nourished the folk-music revival. “She was obviously the sex appeal of that group, and that group was the sex appeal of the movement,” said Elijah Wald, a folk-blues musician and a historian of popular music. A full obituary will be coming soon. www.youtube.com/watch?v=lUKB3PxG-0E

I loved that show! The sixties were a magical time for TVYeah man, me too. I found every episode from file sharing a while back.. Had a marathon, heh. "Magic" was a theme of a lot of shows in the 60's, let's see, I Dream of Jeanie, The Nanny and the Professor, and of course Bewitched with the replacement Darrin.

The "Condensed Cream of Beatles" stiff in the gif is from me, I'd recognize that celluloid capture anywhere. Not complaining, good job.

About Lennon, one could debate motive, some would say TPTB foresaw John becoming politically active at a time when that would become troublesome to those about to take power. Or not.. But talking about motive is putting the cart before the horse IMO, better to discuss the actual events. invanddis.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=john&action=display&thread=889&page=2#72394Now, I admit all we have here is a crudely drawn diagram with a bullet path that seems unlikely. What I'd REALLY like to see is a picture of those three bullet holes in the glass door. I believe S. Astucia claims the holes were tightly grouped. Would that be likely from a gun fired to the left, which means they would have to ricochet off the wall and travel to the door.. Pretty lucky!

One or maybe two replacements of Paul McCartney for the purpose of keeping the Beatles and/or the McCartney mystique alive? Faintly conceivable. Wholesale replacements of every member of the most talented and the most prominent rock band in the history of the world for the purpose of satisfying some vague undefined objectives of mythical Illuminati overlords? Tinfoil hat territory. Well most would say anything other than an alive, original member of the Beatles known as Paul McCartney was tinfoil hat, but no.. You have the same goal posts as I do as to what is tin I believe. Ringo and George, same guys, all the way through. John too, although the weirdness and conflicting facts surrounding his murder will always have me doubting the "lone nut" theory. All too familiar, if ya know what I mean..

Is that Roby Yonge who talks about meeting McCartney before/after? Always interesting to hear from someone who closely observed both.

I'm sure some clever coder could do that, but there is no way to do what you are describing using this. That would be a little bit underhanded for my taste anyway..

So... Anyone feeling any different? ;D Well, not really, but when I got a sub for lunch today, the ticket said: "order #9" Well that's weird, heh.

True enough DH, we are small and can provide more personalized service, but it's still not possible to be here all the time either. But, if people feel like "oh no, I can't believe you guys would do this, I HATE it, etc", then.. It can go away. However, since someday soon Proboards is going to version 5, with numerous new features, I wouldn't be surprised if they throw this one in anyway, but I'll check.. Hard to dig that info up from the support board.

I'm on my work PC now, and I'm able to ignore you all with extreme prejudice. ;D ...Except the mods of course. ;D Yes, that is correct. If you use Firefox P(D)enny, it should work, I have no problems. From the writer of the code: support.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=codedatabase&action=display&n=1&thread=70474This code will put a button in each user's profile, that, when clicked, will cause you to ignore that user's post/pm/calendar entry. If you are ignoring someone, anoter button is put in their mini-profile which, when clicked, unignores them. You can set it up so admins, gmods, mods, and custom groups are not ignored by entering their group number in the cannotIgnore variable. All ignore info is stored in the cookie so if you delete your cookies or use a different computer, your ignore list will not be available.

You guys are quick..
Just trying it out, didn't mean to cause any alarm.
Not an uncommon feature of many boards, although in Proboards it's not built in.
What are your thoughts? I suspect those who feel every word they type should be seen by all will feel chagrined.. Those who feel annoyed/bothered by certain posters will feel relieved.. But human nature being what it is, most won't be able to leave someone "ignored" for very long, as they would be too curious anyway.

Guys, me and faulbackdown are different people. We might write the same, but we aren't the same people. Why would I insult myself? Ever thought about that? The email address for faulbackdown has the name Connor Terrell in it. Are you saying Connor Terru and Connor Terrell are not the same person? I find that hard to believe. Plus faulingdown, fakemustdash and faulingstarr all have the same ip address. Only, since I made that post, faulingstarr's ip address has mysteriously changed. Right, I used to be way more on top of this, I've gotten lazy.. Conner, you would insult yourself because that is the stock in trade of internet role playing.. What, are you so young you think you invented it? How would you know they have the same IP address? And using the same proxy is lame, put a little effort into it.. Three newcomers all show up at the same time using the same proxy? Such amateurish sock-puppetry!

To the collection of characters: (I can't keep them all straight) I do see the humor of a post like this, i.e. 'I have secrets, they are after me', etc. Anyone who's been around the forums as long as I have recognizes an "attention seeker" (to use a polite term) but if you thought anyone was going to take you seriously (and you know you'd love it if they did) it looks like that ship has sailed..
Just figure out which character you want to be, pick one, and stick with it, makes things less confusing, gracias.

Happy birthday LB, and nice seeing you again.. You still are the only one from this board I have seen in person. Meeting someone that they have only talked to on the internet may be an "alien" concept to some, but it was OK in this case. Oh yeah, I got that mug last Xmas from my mom.

Sir Paul told Mojo magazine: "I think the worst thing that happened was that I could see people sort of looking at me more closely - 'were his ears always like that?'" Interesting. This is not an approach he usually takes, if ever, meaning talking about whether he looked "different". Usually it's all about the DJ, album clues, etc. Must have read the Italian Wired article.

Haven't gotten it in the mail yet. Cool, a new Matt Taibbi Article!
About the contents, will be interesting to see how close it is to the stories we've heard before.

So I have a question. Does anybody feel deprived for having these things told to you straight up instead of discovering them for yourselves? Speaking for myself.. Not at all. I think most are happy to have something explained to them that for whatever reason they couldn't figure out for themselves. I don't know how many have made a serious effort, I have, but the task was overwhelming/didn't know where to start. We the Pepper buying public were perhaps "tasked" with solving this, of course they (had to) know that only a small minority would figure it out. (and subsequently pass it on to the rest) OK, so one guy is a pretty small minority! But that's still playing by the rules, eh?

If I see even one, do I have a dirty mind? ;D
But hey, if there are sex subliminals in Pepper, maybe thrown in at the end as a sure thing, just like any other artist who knows a certain item sells..

Well thanks for the explanation Jude. I mellowed in my POV on him to the point of disinterested observer rather than arguing about it.. Still just watching, carry on I guess.
