Is a pie in the sky,
Chock full of lies,
A tool we devise
To make sinking stones fly."

I despise people who mislead the public like this - I see it as one of the lowest forms of deception.

Just terrible.

How the bloody hell do you Texans put up with this shite? Excuse the foul language, I see little point in articulating this any more complicated than that.

My hope is that one day all those museums will be in a museum. So it might be fun for future generations to have pictures of us laughing at them. I'm all for a field trip.  :)

I'm going to try to figure out if that place really exists (no one I know has heard of it and the local group is usually aware of this sort of thing) then we'll arrange a field trip.

I've always thought that videotaping a tour of such a place would make for a grand opportunity to create a "documentary" style film teaching "how to spot fallacies, misinformation and propaganda".
