Sure looks like water in the center. Are you sure this isn't a StarGate?

Maybe just place some fake news reports of real big speed bumps being put into rotation, looking just like the painted ones?

Then some fake outcry about damaged cars, etc.

As long as you're doing fakery, do it up!

In the beginning of US Air Mail you could fly with the pilot in the second seat (2-seat biplane) for your postage weight in airmail stamps.

Today there are Rural Star Routes where you can ride along with the post carrier in the truck or car to your destination (if it's on the route). This takes a long time, but it's faster than walking.

Oh! Let's do the airmail postage calculation:

Say you weigh 150 pounds, and the first class stamp is now 42 cents: 150 * 16 * .42 = $1,008

Isn't that about what you'd pay to just walk up to the airline counter and buy a 1-way ticket leaving right away these days?

Maybe it's simply the quest for a monopoly on surveillance?

According to my friend Bjorn (& I agree with him):

"The State of Oregon" sits as a municipal corporation, privately held, and for profit. For the financial details see "State of Oregon Comprehensive Annual Financial Report(s)". Here is 2007's: http://www.oregon.gov/DAS/SCD/SARS/docs/2007_CAFR.pdf

Thanks in large part to Walter Burien 7M+ "hits" obtain if you google "CAFR" - the biggest shell game - and fraud I might add - in town. Since there are over 134,400 municipal corporations across America several hundred thousand of those hits are for the cafr.gov pdf (pretty damn fooked) files. For some eye openers see "cafrman" who has analyzed many of them including Oregon's: http://www.cafrman.com/Articles/Art-OR-S1.htm

Go here for an audio of Walter being interviewed: http://mp3.wtprn.com/Karen/0804/20080414_Mon_Karen1.mp3

As such, this corporation has every right to copyright its cheap pulp fiction and you are violating that "right", assuming of course fictitious "entities" can have "rights", by publishing their crap.

I don't think fictitious entities can or should have "rights" but that is another matter!

Marisa is onto something: If this can be modified into a *Cat Detector* a lot of people would buy it. People care a lot more about cats than they do about spy stuff. Besides, are you on camera? More and more the answer is *yes* - and what are you going to do about it? More and more the answer is *nothing* - but finding a lost cat? Priceless.
