Believes that we are anally retentive, over-cautious, nervous, timid, apologetic and should turn our backs on :- the dangers of
 * global warming
 * cell-phone radiation
 * genetic engineering

and focus on the dangers of
 * terminal shrinking of the fun gland
 * the world being run by teacher's-pet neo-fascist do-gooders
 * the huge benefits and potential of science being tarred with the same brush used to criticise corporate greed
 * our kids growing up to be zombies
 * not letting our kids grow up to be their own zombies, but trying to shape them into socially acceptable zombies
 * forgetting that we were once zombies too
 * forgetting that some music does need to be felt as well as heard - LOUD!

Believes that:-
 * voting is easy and soft, if you vote, then don't criticize others who don't with the pathetic statement "oh, so you shouldn't be complaining then"
 * just because society provides us with a list of pathetic, cynically motivated professional bureaucrats who are brown-nosing for a cushy, highly paid "job" in politics, we shouldn't march like little robots down to the voting booth - sit on the front lawn and heckle those who do

Is happy to contribute to wikipedia as long as the process resembles the real world of dealing with reasonable, polite, respectful people. Having pages deleted without discussion or warning for insignificant transgressions is rude, arrogant and annoying, and is totally counterproductive to a culture which promotes community involvement. I have spent probably two hours IN MY LIFE adding content to articles and am totally disappointed and amazed by the attitudes of the people I have encountered.
