Brainwashing
I slept badly last night. I kept dreaming that I was part of
the space program to put a man (or woman) on the moon. The dream
was confusing because I couldn't work out whether I was working
for the Chinese or the British program. I remember that I had problems sleeping
one night in Beijing. There was the constant dripping of water
in pipes. Oh dear, my brain is no longer my own.
China has a bad civil rights record and they banned this BLOG
from being read in China. There were a lot of police and army
on the streets, but they didn't see any hostility. I did see
one guy handcuff some old woman on the ground at the entrance to a metro
station. The woman was screaming abuse. A whole crowd of Chinese
ran up to watch.
I don't so mind so much being brainwashed by the Chinese government to
betray secrets of western missions to the moon or mars. I feel weak
that I didn't resist then pressure to be involved in any manned space
flight. Frankly it is a waste of money. It just a publicity
stunt. This is why the manned mission to Mars is supported by
anti-science people like George Bush. Why can't the Chinese have
brainwashed me to take money from the space program and to put it to
the linear collider project?
