Everyone Be Afraid! Predators Move To Game Consoles

There's a neat little rule in press coverage: three stories makes a "trend" even if there's not much more to it. This works particularly well on stories where you're trying to scare people into worrying about something "bad" happening out there. Of course, rather than explore how widespread the problem is, the report usually just quotes a few biased individuals and spreads the message of "fear, fear, fear!" Witness this story in USA Today claiming that sexual predators are using gaming consoles to target kids. It hits all the points: scary situation, lists out three cases, quotes a few police officers claiming it's a big deal -- but doesn't provide any evidence or stats on how widespread this really is.

We are not alone - NASA astronaut

I am totally with you Jeda of Melbourne... To think that we human on Earth are the only one in this universe is a total arrogance that is beyond comprehension. We, along with all things exists are made out of the same particles that made up the rest of the Universe. Instead of welcoming the findings and entertaining the possibilities, the ruling governments allow fear to set in and squashed all evidence. We need to change it to the perspective of love... not fear. Perhaps and just perhaps that if we collectively realized that we do indeed share the airspace with other civilizations it might give us a better incentive to unite as one to move our consciousness to a new height. And we might start to treat our own kind a little bit more humanely without the differentiations of country, race and religion.
