I knew that Jim Jones had some politicians in his pocket, but not that high up. It doesn't suprise me, though. I wouldn't have put it past him to have planned to escape, but after the gunning down of Washinton politicians, he probably realized the jig was up at that point. Look how may Nazis fled to South America after WWII (and they killed millions), who is to say he couldn't have done the same thing, fled on down to Aregentina or Brazil. If he had enough money to pay his way off, I think he could very well have done that.
That's appalling about the children, but it doesn't suprise me either. A sociopath can kill a child or use a child with no remorse as quickly as they could an adult.
That 2012 junk is just that, junk. The Mayan calendar was just ending like our calender will end December 31, 2009.... and we'll purchase new ones at the mall calendar kiosk for next year. All those calendar stones were under Mexico city, they just bumbled on that one while doing construction. There's probably a stone with the new calendar under Juan's Taco Shack, it was just never discovered.
I read and article last week about astronomers getting hysterical emails from scared people threatening to kill themselves and their kids before 2012. *THAT'S* scarier than any 2012 hokum. Anyhoo, the astronomers say nothing celestial is going to happen that isn't happening right now. I'd be more worried about climate change, now *THAT'S* real.
The "world" won't end for millions more years, ie when our sun starts to die and engulfs the planet. Humans however, will eventually end if we don't get our shiz together.
I haven't read the book Three Sisters in Black, only excerpts from it online. Why do sociopaths hate anyone? Why did that harpy I got stuck with as a parent hate me? I'll never know, but I did get away from her. Ocey's time was very different, though. Hell, women couldn't vote, own property or use birth control (legally). She grew up in a society of submission, even to other women. It's not like today where we can (and should) say "screw you!" and leave a bad situation and be able to have a means to support ourselves.
I'm sure I've mentioned that there's a high school located over the old school that Ocey's aunt/mother was the head mistress of. It's said to be haunted by that old hag and her sisters and the husband that she offed, too. I know, I know every school between here and Timbukto is said to be haunted, but if one ever was, I'd guess that one would be.
If my answers frighten you then you should cease asking scary questions.
