It's about a grassroots political movement during the English Civil War called the Diggers.

On a current events & history message board I post on the resident New Ager & Astrologer started this thread and is driving me and several other posters crazy with his repetitive rants equating philosophical "Materialism" (Naturalism) with Economic "Materialism" (Consumerism and Corporate Capitalism). And he also spews a lot of "Quantum Theory disproves materialism" nonsense.

I can't believe perfectly intelligent people can believe such nonsense.

For the last few days YouTube videos and other media that use Adobe Flash Player (like internet radio) have not been working, the media will not load. YouTube gives me the "An error occured, please try again later" message.

I use the latest version of FireFox and I have the latest version of Adobe Flash Player.

My dad is one of the sugar processing workers who have been locked out by American Crystal Sugar for a year now. He finally found a new job and it is even better than his old one. He will be working at a factory that makes parts for vehicles and machines. It's a unionized shop and offers excellent pay and benifits.

I'm surprised there are still mechanical parts factories still in this country, I would have thought they had all been outsourced!

I'm reading on Jeff Master's Blog that the Hurricane Hunters may be finding minimal Cat1 surface winds.

IF YOU ARE IN NE FLORIDA STAY SAFE!!!

I was told this in a thread about the World Health Organization saying that "most radiation doses from Fukushima are within norms". Apparently the WHO is not to be trusted in anything just because a few people working for it were caught taking kickbacks from vaccine makers during the Swine Flu pandemic.

Of course the woo-woos already assume without question that the fears caused by the pandemic were manufactured by TPTB, even though it was scientists that were worried about it and sounded the alarm (of course they would say the scientists are all paid shills, too, LMAO).
