Resistance is futile

To everybody. Are you trying to resist? Or have you simply been assimilated?

Laz never connected...

I bet you have been connected in ways you just don't know.

Now if you claimed you never used the internet, or maybe only ever used the terminals at your public library, maybe I'd believe you. But I suspect some guys in the Chinese Red Army are laughing at your post right now, and some guys at the NSA, and some guys who work for George Soros. There will be Russians and Brits and New Zealanders and guys at Walmart among others laughing by this evening. Don't worry. I'm not laughing.

I love Eric Sammons, one of the only commentators I still enjoy listening to (or reading) these days.
