Oh and lest we forget: The Spokesmen – "The Dawn Of Correction" one hit wonder as a sarcastic counterpoint and answer record to Barry McGuire's protest song, "Eve of Destruction". If you never heard, it's a must listen.

The western world has a common dedication
To keep free people from Red domination
And maybe you can't vote, boy, but man your battle stations
Or there'll be no need for votin' in future generations

So over and over again, you keep sayin' it's the end
But I say you're wrong, we're just on the dawn of correction

There are buttons to push in two mighty nations
But who's crazy enough to risk annihilation?
The buttons are there to ensure negotiation
So don't be afraid, boy, it's our only salvation

You tell me that marches won't bring integration
But look what it's done for the voter registration
Be thankful our country allows demonstrations
Instead of condemnin', make some recommendations
I don't understand the cause of your aggravation
You mean to tell me, boy, it's not a better situation?

So over and over again, you keep sayin' it's the end
But I say you're wrong, we're just on the dawn of correction

You missed all the good in your evaluation
What about the things that deserve commendation?
Where there once was no cure, there's vaccination
Where there once was a desert, there's vegetation
Self-government's replacing colonization
What about the Peace Corp. organization?
Don't forget the work of the United Nations
So over and over again, you keep sayin' it's the end

But I say you're wrong, we're just on the dawn of correction
But I say you're wrong, we're just on the dawn of correction

The pilot and radar intercept officer did a supersonic ejection and somehow managed to live to fight another day. They were quickly recovered with only minor injuries. Sonic boom & then KabOOm!




Sept 20, 2002: Tor was launched by MIT students for 'anonymous' communications.

The original technology behind Tor was developed by the US Navy and has received about 60% of its funding from the State Department and Department of Defense, although its other backers have included digital rights lobbyist the Electronic Frontier Foundation, journalism and community body Knight Foundation and the Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency.

When it launched in 2002, the Tor project's emphasis was on protecting internet users' privacy from corporations rather than governments.
