OF THE

"The more you learn about Indian Point, the more you know it must close. It's too old, near too many people, and too vulnerable to fire, earthquake, outside attack and a host of other potential disasters. What's more, we simply don't need Indian Point's dirty, dangerous power: current surpluses are sufficient to consign Indian Point to the scrap heap when its licenses expire if not sooner. New York is safer, more secure and simply better off without Indian Point."
"It is perfectly possible for a man to be out of prison and yet not free—to be under no physical constraint and yet be a psychological captive, compelled to think, feel and act as the representatives of the national state, or of some private interest within the nation wants him to think, feel and act. . . . To him the walls of his prison are invisible and he believes himself to be free."—Aldous Huxley, A Brave New World Revisited"Free worlders" is prison slang for those who are not incarcerated behind prison walls. Supposedly, those fortunate souls live in the "free world." However, appearances can be deceiving.
"One phenomenon all ponerogenic groups and associations have in common is the fact that their members lose (or have already lost) the capacity to perceive pathological individuals as such, interpreting their behavior in fascinated, heroic, or melodramatic ways. When the habits of subconscious selection and substitution of thought-data spread to the macrosocial level, a society tends to develop contempt for factual criticism and to humiliate anyone sounding an alarm."
Andrew M. Lobaczewski, Political Ponerology

Comment: Other large fires in the last week include industrial ones: the Nestle plant in Burlington, Wisconsin, a chemical fire at a solar plant near Forbes, in central New South Wales, Australia following an explosion, a major fire at a recycling plant in Newry, Northern Ireland, fire at an Estonia rare metals plant.
As well as fires at an oil pipeline in India, the apparent ruptured pipeline which caused a massive blaze in Texas, a pipeline fire which raged in southwest Nigeria and the massive fire at the oil depot near Kiev, Ukraine that is reigniting.
A huge blaze ravaged the roof of a 19th century basilica in Nantes, western France, as 70 firefighters tackled a huge fire at a row of shops in Hackney, London.
In Earth Changes and the Human-Cosmic Connection, Pierre Lescaudron presents the possibility that certain types of buildings or factories can act as attractors for dramatic electrical discharges, whether 'sparked' by incoming comet fragments or atmospheric electrical conditions. So could something similar be responsible for some of these fires?
