    I personally plan on researching the theory that the aliens that crashed in Roswell were actually on a mission to exhume and re-animate Billy the Kid. :-D

    I'd say that conspiracy is just as credible as the UFO landing itself :)

      If they aren't up to no good, why are they so secretive even after years of protests against them?

      Because there are plenty of people who'd love to stuff a bomb in a room full of people who make that much money every year? Because they'd rather make the money themselves than declaring publicly what they intend on doing? Because it's a bunch of business assholes who probably spend the entire time squabbling over completely pointless shit? My point was mostly that the article had absolutely nothing to say about his point.

        Keyword: negotiating. If I tried to negotiate a trade agreement with the Prime Minister of Britain, it'd be felony. If I played golf* with him, or *gasp* had a drink with him at a classy resort, where's the crime? * I don't play golf, but that's what rich people do. Personally, I think miniature golf is more fun.

        I've seen people have fun while golfing, they had one of the golf bags replaced with a keg on the back of the golf cart, but they were certainly enjoying themselves.

            Your point is valid :) But that first part..? Ok, but then what is their excuse for evading almost every question about what they're up to? It may all be pointless sh*t, but then why don't they just prove it. That wouldn't actually hurt, would it. And the secrecy does hurt, PR wise at least. I guess my point is, their secrecy would only help them if the truth is worse than the lie. And they are not dumb people, so they know this.

              Hey, that's what I figured. A little publicity, a little chutzpah and I should be able to build an entire tourist industry around it. Something to sustain me in my dotage, doncha know.

                Would answering the questions prove it? If they went on record saying "No, we're not talking about world domination," would people actually believe them? I mean, if the conspiracy theory WAS true (Hypothetically), they would lie about it anyway. So answering the questions does not suffice... What would constitute proof? Bringing a camera in there? I thought the entire point was to get away from the media for a little while... You know... A vacation.

                  One does not have to be a published science fiction writer to recognize ONE HELL of a great sci-fi book plot when one sees it. I bet we could get this as a B-movie produced by SyFy.

                  If I have accidentally said something witty, smart, or correct, it is purely by mistake and I apologize for it.

                      Because no one would believe them, including myself. I don't doubt that at least some of them harbor delusions of grander schemes, but I figure enough of them don't have them, or have conflicting ones that they don't get much of anywhere. Now, if a leader was to pop up I may be concerned, but these aren't the kind of people who follow all to much.

                                Have you seen what they produce? If any of their recent movies are an indicator, this Billy The Kid, Alien Gunslinger has the makings of a total hit.

                                    Actually, I have a confession. I'm actually the leader of the Bilderberg group. Me and Steve Jobs have been working in cahoots on this global domination thing for decades now. Steve's doing pretty well at it. He's got Disney in his back pocket, a mind control device in everyone elses back pocket, and soon phase 2 starts and we make the matrix.

                                      Actually, I have a confession. I'm actually the leader of the Bilderberg group. Me and Steve Jobs have been working in cahoots on this global domination thing for decades now. Steve's doing pretty well at it. He's got Disney in his back pocket, a mind control device in everyone elses back pocket, and soon phase 2 starts and we make the matrix.

                                      If I have accidentally said something witty, smart, or correct, it is purely by mistake and I apologize for it.

                                      That's what you think! I've had Steve under my control for almost two years... And right about now... *checks his watch*... Look outside your door.

                                        Way to completely misread Distind's post. A leader of the Bilderberg group, not a member that was a leader elsewhere.

                                        Correct in one. It's kinda funny, I'd be more afraid of whoever it was who came out to 'prove' they weren't up to anything than the entire organization right now. Why? Because they most likely had to get the entire organization to agree with them to do it.
