Close Encounter?

[mbarrick]

I was in line at London Drugs at Granville and Georgia today and noticed a thin guy in the next line wearing ratty clothes and a baseball cap giving me a sideways look and then shaking his head. The baseball cap had a red dragon on it and several pins across an odd range of symbology. The face under the hat looked familiar, somewhat — possibly someone I have only seen a bad picture of, but thinner, older, and definitely more worn out looking than the picture, so I really wasn't sure. The person had already sidled over to a line further away, and while we cleared the checkouts at just about the same time the person scurried out of the store before I had a chance to say, "Hello. Is your name Purple?"

I still pop in to his mailing lists occasionally for such gems as how Bush used HAARP to cause Katrina and this recent winner:

Current technology has already assured that there are no more secrets for those who hold the money and power in their corrupted hands. Unless you can build your own RFID scrambler, let alone a neural implant disabler, and power either one, we're all in the same boat here. A brave new world. I think most of us already know how this SF program plays out - whether we deny what we're a part of or not.

Would we even be able to tell the difference between engineered hybrid humans with military technology in their claws and "authentic" interdimension ETs? Yes, this is ME making this speculation, a hybrid contactee - and my open question is most serious.

Damnit! Where did I put those neural implant disabler schematics? And if that sad little burned-out man was indistinguishable from an example of the genticially engineered super-soldier of the future, I'm definitely ready for 2012.
