A friend of mine discovered the terms back in the 70s and until a few years ago I never heard the terms used by anyone else, but then Jan Oberg, founder of the Transnational Foundation for Peace & Future Research became a positive acquaintance and he continually uses them!].

The words from you blurb, "AI: Not used. Sorry, HAL. Now, open the pod bay doors" made me laugh! laugh

"I'm sorry, Dave. I'm afraid I can't do that..." Gosh, I LOVE that movie. Glad it made you laugh, too. I'll never forget the cold chill from the first time I heard that line in a theater.

And thanks as well for expanding both my vocabulary and my knowledge of Jan Oberg, a true ambassador for Peace. Wish him and others like him much success. We certainly need it...
