My favorite way to search info (besides google) is through wikipedia links (at the bottom or embedded) and going through blog links. Before google came into the scene, I favored Alta Vista.

All I can say is all that I am is accumulated knowledge handed down through the years & if the knowledge had been sorted out differently I would have been a different person..I might not know myself....It would be interesting to be frozen & come back years later, but I doubt I could do that whole scene...too spooky.

I hate that Google does that, but MSN is horrible and Yahoo bothers me for some reason.

Rashomon is on Youtube in parts...very cool.......It's a foreign movie w/ subtitle in case that scares people away who may be interested.. One of my favorite sub-titled movies is Geisha & there have been many others...If I have time later I will be watching...Thanks Funes..I might have let that blow by me if you hadn't brought it to my attention..

I think so CWO......I agree funes, seems to me his mentioning the film Rashomon would be a subtle hint to watch it.....I know I have read articles about the subject matter, but wonder if I saw the film? Would be a good time to watch......

It is interesting that about halfway through he mentions the film Rashomon. The Rashomon effect concerns how different observers to an event often have contradictory views on the incident. It might be a subtle attempt to get his viewers to watch the movie, a classic on the nature of truth.
