Greek mythological beauty Pandora was given a box. She was ordered not to open it under any circumstances.

Despite the warning she opened the box, releasing all the evils now in the world.

In popular culture.....curiosity kills the cat, honey.

A Fall in Denver peeks into the world of exploration companies back in the day.

Wow. My father was a geophysicist employed by a major oil exploration company "back in the day". Never thought of him, or the company, to be this intriguing. Only thing out of the ordinary I remember, was he drank too much.

I wish they had been more specific as to which oil company ... maybe it’s just a rumor

Even smart people do things in certain situations that don’t seem to make much sense.

This doesn’t surprise me at all.

Thanks! I'm working on some graphics to put up as a rejoinder to the libel the DNC has put up on the domain bprepublicans.com

Here's another I'm working on (it's still in draft form, and I haven't added text yet):

His brother turned him in after the feds published his “manifesto”, and reeled the brother in. You could say that was a successful strategy of the FBI. From what I remembered they had a pretty good idea but no evidence for a warrant, until the brother came in under immunity*.

His manifesto read just like Earth In The Balance, his targets, according to his manifesto, were environmental and political transgressors. Yeah, I’m not sure why universities would figure there; maybe they were not true-to-the-faith enough?

*How did Unibomber solder the wires, machine the screws, and do the fancy woodwork of the bomb cases in a shack with no tools or electricity?

“And they didn’t “catch” him. His brother ratted him out. The feds never would have caught him.”

The feds made a big deal, over months, about how they were going to publish the UNAbombers manifesto- where, when, by who, was under discussion.

Editorials were written about whether it was a good idea, and other articles spun off. All part of a Fed publicity campaign.

Finally they did publish, finally there were eds about UNAbomber and related matters, and finally his brother came forward and agreed to talk under immunity.

So it was not just his brother who dimed him out, it was part of a big media/PR effort led by the Feds. Loyal brother would never have done it on his own.

They avoided lots of details from coming out, by telling UNAbomber that they would prove he was insane in court, so he plead guilty, and they went right into sentencing. Lots of things we would like to have known got buried right then.

Well what do you expect?

The rhetoric has drummed up hatred for certain people.

"That looks GREAT so far!!!!"

Thanks. Here's the version that I just put up live online on a specialty website to counter-attack the smear campaign the DNC put up at bprepublicans.com (this is actually a smaller size of what I put up online - I don't want to kill too much FReepers' bandwidth!):



The DNC's IT guy was smart enough to grab the .com, .net, and .org domain names, but not smart enough to grab the .info domain name, so I now have bprepublicans.info up
