Real time, On-Line Hunting, Hunt Wild Game From Your PC (Page 2 of 2)

Awesome! youre going to an underground rave. those are the best ones. I agree its been commercialized (what hasnt? (i mean, hunting game has been commercialized as this topic suggests)) and that sucks. also the hardcore drug affiliation to raves gives it a bad rep.
I have had the honor of seeing Paul Oakenfold a few times here in the states (phx) and Sasha, although im not quite sure if sasha is from across seas, i think so. I would love to see John Digweed, Fatboy Slim, Aphex Twin, to name a few of the artists that seldom ever come to the states...

oh, and thank you kindly for the invite. if we ever get the chance to travel abroad and we hit the UK, i know who to contact !

All mammals have a brain stem, which goes back to the reptiles. It's just the most basic and primitive brain structure, to which evolution (or intelligent design or whatever) added the lymbic and cortical systems. Does this brain stem have to do with Icke's reptiles, evil and their possible hold over us, the flyers mind etc, perhaps but I personally wouldn't link it just because of the use of the world reptile in both instances.

Jane Goodall discovered that those lovely chimps can be just as violent as we are:
"Chimpanzees, our closest species, demonstrate the same intraspecies violence, with death as a goal rather than an unfortunate consequence as it seems to be in other less closely related species. Chimpanzee violence towards other neighbouring groups is different from that of other primates in that the aim is to kill, whereas other primates are content to see the other group flee. It is clearly not a coincidence that humans and chimpanzees seem to be the only two species who fight to kill.
In addition, chimpanzees and other apes practice rape, infanticide and battering as means to gain and maintain power and to ensure maximum fertility. Rape is particularly common among chimpanzees and orangutans, and among the latter accounts for between one third and one half of all copulations. Rape seems to be the way in which smaller males, who could not otherwise compete with the larger males, have a chance to spread their DNA.

It's funny and curious that the Bonobo's seem to be hippies compared to the chimps: free sex, love, peace etc.
Those loving bonobos -- did we pick the wrong primate to evolve from?

The question of the origins and meaning of evil is an intruiging one. Does it have to do with metaphysical forces, gender, culture, genes, power or all of those in some weird constellation...

Yes, thanks for posting those links.  I never learned that about chimps!    I knew about bonobos, who are very intriguing in that they look most like us versus any other primate with their long limbs, hairless faces and minimal head hair -  they're even bi-pedal!  - but chimps....wow.  Although it's not surprising.  Chimps are very aggressive and have a male dominated society, whereas in Bonobo land, the females are the Queen and everybody gets along.   People like to say that Chimps are our closest relatives, but I believe it's bonobos.  Had a chance to see Bonobos at the San Diego Zoo about 5 years ago......wow.  Holy cow.  It'll blow you away.   You feel uncomfortable watching them through the glass.  You feel rude.   They're a people,  basically, they're not "animals".  Watching their behavior, their interactions, their movements...it's unreal.    It was interesting to watch the crowd's reactions.  Everybody would pile up to the glass, all excited, then slowly, as they observed the bonobos and it registered what they were seeing, they began getting figety and uncomfortable.  Eyes averting around.   That was the was biggest clue, not being able to "stare at them" like you would a giraffe.  Because they'll look right back at you and they look like people.  There was one female bonobo who recognized a male in the crowd and came running up to the glass, locking eyes with him, tapping the glass.  He played a little "flirty" game of tapping the glass back and forth, since they couldn't like, give hugs or something.  We started talking to him and he told us that he was a regular to the zoo, coming to specifically study the bonobos, and that one female recognized him and seemed to have a little crush.       To see her face light up and the way their hands were up against the glass, trying to "touch" through the glass, it was sad.

Their movements and bodies are most interesting because again, they have long limbs and are bi-pedal, they're not all hunched over hop/dragging themselves around like chimps.   Other things we observed that day at the zoo was one Bonobo named Michael who sat apart from the group.  He was sitting on the ground, leaning against the wall with a grumpy scowl on his face, with his legs bent up to his chest and his arms draped around his knees.  Exactly like a person would sit.  The person I was with commented that his body looked IDENTICAL to a person's. If you covered his face/head, you wouldn't be able to tell the difference.    I mean the arms...they were just like a human male's arms.     He would shoot annoyed glances both at the people behind the glass and his own group off on the other side of the compound, like he was pissed at EVERYBODY.  Mad at the humans and mad at his own peeps for being subjected to this. 

Meanwhile, with the group on the other side of the compound, they all decided to get up and move and go off and do other things, but there was one bonobo female who needed to go pee.  Like a human, they have social graces and dignity.  They don't act like "animals" and just do their thing in front of everybody.  They have shyness, hangups, whatever you want to call it.  So she waited until the group was walking off and not looking and then she hung back, discretely went pee, then ran to catch up.

The gorillas were also another interesting area, next to the bonobos.  They're so smart as well that the Zoo had allowed the head alpha male gorilla to take care of his own group. So, they didnt' have the zoo staff hanging over them.    At the end of the day the bell sounded that it was time to go inside for the evening, and the head male got up and began moving around the group, rounding everybody up, gesturing with his arms and hands, gently gathering everybody up, and helping to escort them back inside where they all sleep and spend the night..   

You cant watch something like that and be comfortable.  You'll get the figets and the averting eyes, I guarantee it.
