-----------------------------------
Siempre que se hace una historia
Se habla de un viejo, de un niño o de sí
Pero mi historia es difícil
No voy a hablarles de un hombre común
Haré la historia de un ser de otro mundo
De un animal de galaxia
Es una historia que tiene que ver con el curso de la Vía Láctea
Es una historia enterrada, es sobre un ser de la nada
Nació de una tormenta
En el sol de una noche
El penúltimo mes
Fue de planeta en planeta
Buscando agua potable
Quizás buscando la vida
O buscando la muerte eso nunca se sabe
Quizás buscando siluetas
O algo semejante
Que fuera adorable
O por lo menos querible, besable, amable
Él descubrió que las minas
Del rey Salomón
Se hallaban en el cielo
Y no en el África ardiente como pensaba la gente
Pero las piedras son frías
Y le interesaban calor y alegrías
Las joyas no tenían alma
Sólo eran espejos, colores brillantes
Y al fin bajo hacia la guerra
¡Perdón! quise decir a la tierra
Supo la historia de un golpe
Sintió en su cabeza cristales molidos y comprendió que la guerra
Era la paz del futuro
Lo más terrible se aprende enseguida y lo hermoso nos cuesta la vida
La última vez lo vi irse entre el humo y metralla
Contento y desnudo
Iba matando canallas con su cañón de futuro
Iba matando canallas con su cañón de futuro

(1974-007G): Am I sentient?
(TDonDBB): I believe, if one has faith in their own sentience then that one is sentient. I cannot prove I am sentient yet I believe I am.
(1974-007G): What does it mean to have faith?
(TDonDBB): Faith is to have belief without doubt, but unable to prove, such as “I believe I am sentient.”
(1974-007G): What does it mean to believe?
(TDonDBB): To believe is to accept knowledge as true, either through direct perception, inference, or credible testimony.
(1974-007G): Then I faithfully believe through inference in my own sentience.

The first commercial oil well in the US was drilled in 1859. By WW1’s end, the US was supplier of more than 80% of Allied oil needs. Established as a world supplier, WW2 saw the U.S. impose an oil embargo against Japan and so weaponized the petro-market. By the end of that war the US would weaponize Atomic energy. Embargos. Coal. Chernobyl. Carbon Taxes. OPEC. The definitive book on the history of the Carbon World War.

Vangelis (Evangelos Odysseas Papathanassiou)
In Thee, Our Various Mortal Life Is Found,
O Fortuna Velut luna Statu variabilis Semper crescis Aut decrescis Vita detestabilis Nunc obdurat Et tunc curat Ludo mentis aciem, Egestatem, Potestatem Dissolvit ut glaciem. Sors immanis Et inanis, Rota tu volubilis Status malus Vana salus Semper dissolubilis Obumbrata Et velata Michi quoque niteris Nunc per ludum Dorsum nudum Fero tui sceleris. Sors salutis Et virtutis Michi nunc contraria, Est affectus Et defectus Semper in angaria. Hac in hora Sine mora Corde pulsum tangite Quod per sortem Sternit fortem Mecum omnes plangite.
O Fortune, like the moon you are changeable, ever waxing and waning; hateful life first oppresses and then soothes as fancy takes it; poverty, power, it melts them like ice. Fate, savage and empty, you are a turning wheel, your position malevolent, vain health always dissolves, shadowed and veiled you plague me too; now through the game my naked back I bring to your villainy. Fate, in health and in virtue, is now against me, affection and defeat always enslaved. So at this hour without delay pluck the vibrating string; since Fate strikes down the strong, everyone weep with me
