Incorrect. Mistaking the virtual for the real is faulty logic. I may
be a "slave" to my emotions, desires, proclivities, obligations, but I
have the freedom to choose - to stay or leave, work or not [and maybe
starve], websurf or do something productive. Slaves generally aren't
allowed online, aren't allowed to freely transport themselves about by
car/train/bus/plane, aren't allowed to dress funny or change channels.
The "slavery" you proclaim is metaphorical; the map is not the territory.

In the above quotes you have substituted the word 'actual' where I
used the word 'virtual'. You are deliberately distorting my state-
ments, falsifying my words. This is dishonest, scabrous behavior,
and is not acceptable in civil discourse. Do not repeat it.

CTRL is a discussion and informational exchange list. Proselyzting propagandic
screeds are not allowed. Substance�not soapboxing! These are sordid matters
and 'conspiracy theory', with its many half-truths, misdirections and outright
frauds is used politically by different groups with major and minor effects
spread throughout the spectrum of time and thought. That being said, CTRL
gives no endorsement to the validity of posts, and always suggests to readers;
be wary of what you read. CTRL gives no credeence to Holocaust denial and
