there are things that people try to forget about, and there are things that people hide. some things just refuse to be left alone...and some things refuse to move on. the world around us is so seemingly concrete that its ingrained in our psyche to only accept what we have seen, heard, and experienced for ourselves. at the same time, we receive all of our information from signals recorded and transmitted by people we have never met about subjects that we have never encountered and simply accept them as a truth, or a reality. this is a form of manipulation of our object permanence from infancy (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Object_permanence), so simple a concept that it boggles the mind when you think about it. im not a conspiracy theorist by any means, but its difficult to think of what i witnessed and what has occurred afterword without believing in some basic truths. the world is full of mysterious things that would simply drive some people mad. the people in charge understand this, and in the interest of society as a whole (and extended therefor to your individual safety) these things are contained and kept secret. there are files on the subject matter to be sure, only to be seen by those whose purpose in life is to know about and handle them, but rest assured, if you pay close attention to the world around you, (especially now with the cloud of information at your fingertips) you can remain aware if you so choose. take for example my situation. i was part of a scouting missionary group under mr. walden, he was trying to pitch his idea to the board about how we could make tons of tax free dollars by doing what was good and "getting right with god." we flew to tanzania (http://www.helhetsverkstedet.no/multimedia/bilder/Image/tanzaniaMap.gif). we had only been in country for about 3 days, the heat was terrible but the smells were wonderful, you never notice how polluted the air is around you until you find yourself in a place where there is nothing to pollute the air. we had spent the night with a small village, about 50 or 60 natives offered us everything they had and literally had shown more hospitality in one evening abroad than we had ever encountered with our christian "friends" in our lives. after sundown they had lit a bonfire from some brush plants nearby and were doing that common ritual where they dance and shout, it was surreal to see it in action...that was until they brought up dinner. He was bound and gagged. im going to leave the next three days tale out of the writing, due to the nature of this site i believe you can understand what transpired next. i finally found my way home about a month later, the only thing ive ever been able to find about the incident was this. http://www.irinnews.org/Report.aspx?ReportId=9410
