A Conspiracy Post

Consider the Star Trek 'transporter'

The actual reason for it was that the TV Series 'Star Trek' had a small budget. Making the TV set kinda used it all up. Yup..it was a pretty small budget. When Star Trek was produced there was no such thing as Computer Generated Imagines. Were there even computers then for less than several million dollars? I can't recall.

What ever...making models was the thing. Clay Animation, Animation and other techniques were used.

And they were NOT cheap..and they took a lot of time.

Time and money that the StarTrek producers didn't have. It was a WEEKLY show.

So..what to do..what to do?

Invent a way around it! The transporter! "beam me up Scottie"

It worked very well until you start to think about the technology.

Consider the 1957 chevy for example.

Who'd a thunk it would change the mating habits of the US (and other countries) teenager? That big ole back seat made a handy bed.

So too..the transporter. Given transporter technology why would ANY of the characters ever die? Use the transporter even ONCE...and their file would be stored in the computer. If they got sick, hurt or died. Just materialize a new body and reboot their mind into it.

I'm sure you can come up with about eleventy-seven OTHER unforeseen consequences of transporter technology.

Now back to conspiracy theories. The FreeMasons, the Illuminati, the Rosicrucians, and others but particularly the Zil (lizard people)

It's a given that they all have high tech. Assume that is true. Now consider the 'unforeseen' consequences of such.

For example...almost all of the 'conspiracy theories seem to revolve around sex.

Kinda like a teen age boy....ALWAYS thinking about sex. (I know I did)

Now consider 'full sensory virtual reality'.

• Since the human body has an elaborate sensor web integrated into it, learning how to record from, then playback data into, this web will be the key to implementing fully immersive VR. For instance, when you smell something, a series of electro-chemical receptors in your nose are activated by aromatic molecules. By recording what molecules activate what receptors, mapping them to a particular smell, then playing back these recordings into the body, you should be able to simulate odors in an immersive VR system. This technique can be extended out to all five senses.

Talk about MIND BLOWING sex. When (not if) this is possible why settle for anything less? Why settle for mundane reality?

Given the millions of years that the Zil had to perfect the system...there's no logical reason to suspect that they don't have it.

Clones.....the zil seem to have clones

That's a nother giveaway...if they have cloning technology..there is ZERO DOUBT that they are very profecient with neurology....hence full sensory virtual reality (see above).

And the list goes on.

Reading those conspiracy theories is kinda fun...until it's not.

SO MANY internal inconsistencies.....it's kinda boring and silly after one or two.

But if that's your thing...go for it.

Have a bunch of fun.
