I sort of gave up on conspiracy theories a few years ago, preferring instead to see things as a combination of synchronicity and incompetence.  That's not to say that I think 9/11 was carried out by a bunch of cave dweling fanatics, or that I believe the spin of day to day governance.  The thing that changed it for me was when I realised that the internet, and the giant sprawling interface that it has become, was random.  It wasn't planned or predicted except by the sci-fi and cyber punk writers, it isn't 'controlled' by any group or party, it is an independent entity.  With so many rogue servers it is impossible to close down.  We have Artifical Intelligence.  To my mind the internet is a precursor of what is about to suddenly develop - a world wide web, but of consciousness and empathy and compassion and intuition as opposed to share deals, porn and spam.  Because if these things aren't part of the human future, what kind of future will it be?  And it's now that will be seen as the moment, now being the first eight months of 2010.  At least, that's my interpreatation of the current astrological dynamic.  Ho hum - back to the day to day grind, but with a smile and a song.....
