		<description>How unsuspecting Ethiopians got screwed over one the web.

	It worked like this. For one reason or another Ethiopians were known not to give out personal info of any kind on Ethiopian web sites. Why the hell am I saying for one reason or another? I know the reason, I think. Ethiopians have been hurt. So many times in and in so many ways that. I hate to say this (and frankly it huts to say this) but it is what I see to be the case and I have to say it. It needs to be said! Apparently, forgive me if I appear to sound offensive, not that many of us quite figured out the two deadly weapons - micromanagement and the invisible hand. Because of that we start out thrusting and after a few bad experience we tend to go to the other extreme. 

	This has to be dealt with by the efficiently brainstorming think tanks of the (ok now, you at least should know who I am talking about . I don’t feel like being incriminated. Not tonight). What did the think tanks do? Oh, they were good. They were very good. They set out to depopularize (ok you know the deal. There now is a word called depopularize) unanimity. That was easy just create a rivers psychology of some sort and you are done. 

	Something else needed to be done. They had to feel a sense of belonging if not ownership to what they were getting into in order to get their thrust. First it needed to be very appealing then it was figured out that it should run by their own. That should be ok. As long as they can be lured into it and they can be micromanaged. 

	That worked out successfully. There was some place to get to that is so appealing. It was made appealing to the college students and college graduates with a limited awareness. It contained all the bull talk and all the dirt for a weekend time wasting. 

	It run smoothly for a while and it got visited by some “random” “misfits” who wouldn’t by into the reverse psychology and give out personal info. That was supposed to be hard to handle but thanks to the bigger cause they were serving that they, I think (and I am going to continue to think until I am informed otherwise) did not even know, that was dealt with (IP address of wherever you post stuff from is not all that hard to figure out. It doesn’t even matter whether it is static or dynamic). 

	Knowing, well roughly anyway, the source of the random comment they received, they got lured into silencing that “random” voice. They had no idea (and I don’t know if they do now) that they were being used to destroy one of their own. They got manipulated, severely, into silencing the voice. How sad. They never taught for themselves and said that they would need to hear the voice for themselves. They just wanted to silence it. 

	Fortunately the fact that they were working against themselves was discovered by the metrics and when the could not be delivered from their predicament they had to be shut dawn as a way of compromise. I am not one to say I told you so but they got a test of their own medicine. It is always interesting to see when a voice raised to silence another voice and not hear it for what it has to say gets silenced.
