I may not agree with some of his politics but the next President of the United States knows a great web site when he sees one. Here he is congratulating yours truly on a web site ' which is a splendid addition to the human experience.'









































I have never met Barack Obama and he has probably never seen my web site. I was recently in Washington D.C. There was a guy on Pennsylvania Avenue who for five bucks took your picture and superimposed it to create the illusion of you shaking hands with your choice of Obama, McCain, or Bush. The lesson here is don't believe everything you see. Take my word for it video is as easily manipulated to create any illusion like the picture above. This is only one of the many flip sides of awesome modern technology; just about anyone can create just about any illusion using pictures, video, or sound recording. In fact, and this will be very difficult for many of you to believe, what you see, hear, and even smell or feel in person can be engineered to create truth out of just about any lie and vice versa. I'm sorry to be the bearer of such unpleasant news but this ain't no lie.
