Oh my... You've never heard of tin-foil hats and those that wear them? Seriously? I find that hard to believe.

This is greatly oversimplified and has more holes than swiss cheese but, everytime I read this, I can't help wondering how much better off the world would have been had a different President been elected and therefore Anslinger would have never been appointed, would have never told his lies, etc. Of course, we'll never know. Some will never learn and some things will never change. ;)Quote:

Thanks!
It's time for those bumper sticker from the last oil crisis in the seventies. Quote ' I own the car, but the petrol's on H P' !!!
And my coworkers think i'm totally out of my mind for spending $1400 on my Mt.bike...No gas,No insurence,No taxes payed to the state for use,No pollution (cept when I eat Pork&Beans) And I get around town faster than most traffic,for a car can't go where I can! I live in the land of Goat-ropers,Big hats,and BIG pickem-ups.
I had to ask..I didn't know it either..but I do now..and have been putting it to good use..just glad I wasn't the only one in politics that didn't know about tin hats..except for the character in The Wizard of Oz..the tin man I think..Quote:

"Conservatives who are afraid of those messages from their imaginary liberal media, or others just looking to avoid alien mind control, will be pleased to see that thereâ??s now a wide variety of styles of choose from in tinfoil hats. Pictured here is an Audrey Hepburn-esque â??My Fair Alienâ?? number in foil and pink construction paper. This one only came in third in the Tinfoil Hat Contest. The LA TIMES shows all the winners."

How perfectly marvelous! A Tin Foil Hat contest! Thanks for that link, Breukelen. I really think the third-place winner pictured above should have won first. The whole Royal Ascot-like styling certainly captured my fancy.
Wonder why it is that everyone still calls it tin foil when it's been aluminum foil for 45 years or longer?
