`I'm not a mile high,' said Alice.

Apparently, it continues to be important to have "the boys at RU" come on board the Aquarium and sail off to a pleasant sunset with the fishes.

""Yes, he can, Kit. You’re the floss…. Well, not exactly. You’re the bullet!

Your job is to persuade the boys at RU to bite this bullet, not to mix metaphors or anything. They are a tad sceptical about my testimony, to-date.""

""Then there is RU. They are doing their due diligence on the R&D show and will make a public statement by the end of the week.""

""All the better to defend against their common foe, the Fish Tank. When Michael and Steven finally decide that they must take us on in public, that will be the final chapter in this saga. They will both have to follow in the footsteps of RU.""

One question (of many) that comes to mind is WHY is it important to have the acceptance of a group described by a particular player/actor as a dead board with only a few people reading it (as erroneous as that belief may have been) ??

"""What do you know about this business?' the King said to Alice.

`Nothing,' said Alice.

`Nothing whatever?' persisted the King.

`Nothing whatever,' said Alice.

`That's very important,' the King said, turning to the jury. They were just beginning to write this down on their slates, when the White Rabbit interrupted: `Unimportant, your Majesty means, of course,' he said in a very respectful tone, but frowning and making faces at him as he spoke.

`Unimportant, of course, I meant,' the King hastily said, and went on to himself in an undertone, `important--unimportant-- unimportant--important--' as if he were trying which word sounded best.

Some of the jury wrote it down `important,' and some `unimportant.' Alice could see this, as she was near enough to look over their slates; `but it doesn't matter a bit,' she thought to herself."""

Our attention has recently been drawn to Bekkum's article regarding the naked spy. Under the circumstances, would it be useful to give some front-page-play to an "obscure" group finally buying into the meandering glass bottom boat that is the aquarium?? Boy, wouldn't that captivate the minds of.....handfulls?.....if you could march out the new converts and say: See!?

""Are the RU boys smart enough to see through these ploys? Not real sure about that. It's all about agenda vs. reason driven discourse and 'investigation'. The debunkers have the luxury of hedging every hypothesis. That is the analytic ploy. If there exists a larger truth, it will never be uncovered in that piecemeal fashion. Truth is not an agenda item for RU""

"""tied round the neck of the bottle was a paper label, with the words "DRINK ME" beautifully printed on it in large letters.It was all very well to say "Drink me," but the wise little Alice was not going to do that in a hurry. "No, I'll look first," she said, "and see whether it's marked 'poison' or not"; for she had read several nice little stories about children who had got burnt, and eaten up by wild beasts, and other unpleasant things, all because they would not remember the simple rules their friends had taught them: such as, that a red-hot poker will burn you if you hold it too long; and that, if you cut your finger very deeply with a knife, it usually bleeds; and she had never forgotten that, if you drink much from a bottle marked "poison," it is almost certain to disagree with you, sooner or later..."""
