   Huh. The planned messaging in the UK (in ~1940 when the British government thought Sea Lion was both viable and possibly imminent) was "You can always take one with you" rather than purporting victory in death.

   While - these are awesome... some idiots (you know who...) will probably weaponize the third one as a stupid FaceBook/Twitter meme and their cult members will interpret them the wrong way...

   The last two paragraphs of Charlie Stross's "Dead plots" post regarding conspiracy theories as fiction resonates... (and I mean, half his written career is based off wacky conspiracy theories..."A Colder War")

   (Argh, I love me some conspiracy theories as fiction - but "teh stupid" will always be with us, I just wish they could just go back to church and get off the internet entirely...)

     Around a decade ago, I considered setting up a wiki to annotate the Illuminatus books. I feel like I dodged something now.
