Gasification of the Nation
(4)
Today is the 50th anniversary of Sgt. Pepper! Alright! The Beatles were into Acid (lysergic acid diethylamide tartrate-25) as you may well know, and this album reflected the resulting 'Acid Consciousness' of the group (Mozart PC#21 at 1922L). Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds, for example, is most certainly a reference to LSD, a glorious drug which The Beatles did on a regular basis back in those days. (I repeat: you must do Acid before you die! But beware: you need 'to be worthy.' See previous recent posts on this idea.)
I recently saw a brief reference on the evening news to 'new crazies' who want to attack Iran before they can acquire nuclear weapons. What a fun idea. The choice of whether we should attack now or whether we should wait while that ancient culture civilizes itself is an interesting one. I come down on the side of patience. We need to allow Modernity to replace ancient Muslim Crap in Iran. I think that we need to fight yet another Cold War... with Islam. We need to make it very clear to Iran that the only alternative to coexistence with The West is National Gasification. They will either get it or they won't. If they get it, fine. If they don't get it then we need to proceed with the process of multitudinous gasification. Certainly that eventuality will contribute to Global Warming, but the alternative is even more alarming.
