because it can do so much damage, so quickly, and so indiscriminately. I worry about weather more than anything else.

building a storm cellar then? I've been in MS and the weather does get scary. My mother always dragged us to the neighbor's storm cellar. We get some tornadoes, and take precautions, but I love a good thunderstorm.

|
live in a free America with free elections, the possibility of a draft if * is in again in '04, and whether or not my ass still looks good to members of the opposite sex anymore.

Although I'm not sure if I would describe anything I worry about as "favo(u)rite" or not... If I don't find a job in the next couple of months, I'm scrod. I'm regressing politically right now, because I'm too worried about my own survival. Maslow's Hierarchy rides again, I guess...

14. Ok I have a strange one |
|
I always worry that I am going to get into a car accident with one of my friends or family members and end up with one or both of us dead. I don't know why I worry about this but I do almost every time I drive near my home.

17. Control of the flow of information by big media/corp/gov |
|
Increasingly histerical "intellectual property" laws, decided by supranational entities that FORBID once-sovereign governments to enact more sensible laws. 98% of the components in everything electronic are there not for the device's functioning, but for preventing people from extracting too much benefit from it.
The end of due process. Gag orders for everything. 1984 wasn't the operations manual -- Kafka's "The Trial" was.
The end of privacy. Smart AI at communications midpoints that will flag you as "NEVER EMPLOY" if you speak well of Noam Chomsky one too many times (that is, one).
The end of cash. You no longer have the option of living credit-less on your salary and forget about THAT debt. Payments will be forcibly drawn from your Universal Account as long as you live (no recourse against creditor-established interest rates), and debt will be inherited.
Electronic voting, of course. Even questioning the accuracy of the machines will be prosecuted as terrorist activity.
Speaking of which, that speaking well of Noam Chomsky I mentioned above (along with every uttering different from freepish quackspeak) will be considered terrorist activity, and not considered free speech.
Whew, that's enough dystopia for one day.
