Yippy! James is manipulating my universe again (I actually feel kind of dirty). James, if you could please, I'd like to be a little taller! Come on now, you can put a good word in for me with the big guy, can't you (or perhaps thy are though himself).
Why is it that you run from the threads that you create. Yah, I see a lot of replies to your threads, some maybe not worthy of mention, but many are spot on! You can continue with this silly little charade if you want, but nobody buys it... control history... indeed!
YOU SIR, ARE BEAT!!!
Reading stories about discoverers where historians would say this or
that person had this opinion or discovered this or that thing on this
date, I wondered, how did they know, really?
I don't know, carbon dating maybe?
For those of you who think I'm just some deluded person, it just sounds
like more in that vein, but for those of you who may know otherwise,
consider what I am doing.
.... he says with a grin.
I am going to make the history here.
My creation. Not what actually happened or how it happened, but my
creative will to see if I can make another story, one that I know isn't
the truth, and see if that becomes the historical record.
Ooooh, he's messing with my mind man! I read the above paragraph and almost feel high... not that I know what feeling high is like. I mean, I did do a book report on it once when in high-school, but I've never actually done illicit drugs myself... know what I mean! Eh, know what I mean... nudge nudge... wink wink... say no more... say no more!
And no, I never plan on correcting it, if I succeed.
But Beavis, you have no choice in the matter!
The full experiment is to change history--or what people believe is
history.
To succeed, necessarily, once I destroy what actually happened, and
remake it, I can never go over the details of what was done.
Yah, humanities loss, I guess. Looks like you be the stuff of legends. There will be many a tale of how you did this or that. How you took on the establishment. How you beat the odds (among other things).
Already more has been lost than any of you realize.
And I have enough discoveries that I can pick and choose what the world
will know, keeping some things already, to myself for all time.
It's the kind of game that only someone at my level can play.
How much information can I totally and absolutely control?
I will know, but you won't.

James, you really need a girlfriend or something. I mean, you're just watching too many movies and shit!
