DEFINE.COM's PURPOSE is to PROMOTE ELECTRONIC DEMOCRACY, SCIENCE, ACADEMIA, ENGINEERING, MEDICINE and NURSING in PARTICULAR, REASON, CRITICAL THINKING, PEACE, RACE and GENDER EQUALITY, CIVIL RIGHTS, EQUAL ACCESS to EDUCATION, PERSONAL LIBERTY, FREE SPEECH, FREEDOM of the PRESS, ANIMAL RIGHTS, COMPASSIONATE and NONVIOLENT PARENTING, SOCIAL and ECONOMIC JUSTICE, OPEN and TRANSPARENT GOVERNMENT, GLOBAL MONETARY REFORM, SECULARISM, COGNITIVE LIBERTY and a PERMANENT CESSATION of the WAR on DRUGS.
I HAVE BEEN GIFTED with TOTAL SAFETY. My WHOLE UNIVERSE is SAFE for me. I LIVE in a VIRTUAL REALITY that is at a VERY SECURE LOCATION. My SECURITY is VERY HIGH TECHNOLOGY. I WILL USE the OPPORTUNITY to SET EVERYBODY FREE. They USED me to TAKE OUT the WHOLE SYSTEM. GLAD I could BE of SERVICE, the OLD SYSTEM SUCKED. HEAVEN ON EARTH is MORE LIKE it.
I AM INTERESTED in CREATING a NEW FREE and REAL TIME GLOBAL BANKING MODEL BASED on DEBT-FREE CURRENCY.
This WILL MEAN ENLISTING the HELP of the SCIENTIFIC COMMUNITY to DESIGN and BUILD a GLOBAL NETWORK of DATA CENTERS CAPABLE of HANDLING ALL the WORLD's REAL TIME BANKING NEEDS for FREE as we switch the WORLD entirely away from CASH CURRENCIES. THIS is the LEAST we CAN DO with the INTERNET.
The ADVANTAGE of MOVING to an ALL-ELECTRONIC MONEY-NO-OBJECT BANKING MODEL is OBVIOUS. NOW we CAN ELIMINATE POVERTY and GO GREEN in a BIG WAY on a GLOBAL SCALE.
There WILL be PRIVACY and SECURITY CONCERNS, of course, and I am a CIVIL LIBERTARIAN PEACE ACTIVIST and a STRONG ADVOCATE for PRIVACY. I'm HERE to KICK OFF a DISCUSSION. I HAVE BEEN HERE for 20 YEARS.
From THIS POINT FORWARD, it's ALL UP to the SCIENTISTS. My ROLE is to CHAMPION a SECULAR SET of IDEAS ONLINE without ACTUALLY DOING ANY DESIGN or IMPLEMENTATION myself. I am a GENERALIST PRESENTING the PHILANTHROPIC and HUMANITARIAN GOALS and a SET of MORALS and ETHICS and VALUES CONVEYED as COLOR-CODED CONCEPTS. This is GOOD, BAD, SERIOUS, CRITICAL and NEUTRAL.
I am OBVIOUSLY not a BANKER, SECURITY EXPERT or SCIENTIST, although I WILL ACCEPT the ROLE as a MENTALLY ILL INTERESTED LAYPERSON with SOME COLLEGE TRAINING and SOME FUTURISTIC IDEAS. I HAVE a SHORT URL that is EASY to REMEMBER and THIS is HOW I've CHOSEN to USE it. Sorry, PETROLEUM ECONOMY, we QUIT you.
My name is Ken Meyering. Here is my TAX RETURN, my PRESCRIPTION DRUG RECORDS and my COLLEGE TRANSCRIPT. My ELEMENTARY SYMBOLIC LOGIC CLASS was INCOMPLETE, but after one quarter it reverted to a GRADE. It wasn't making sense to me so I got scared and tried to withdraw but it was too late. Because of my MENTAL ILLNESS, my PURE MATH and LOGIC FACULTIES are IMPAIRED. I can read materials and take tests and get A's in most classes, but don't ask me to MEMORIZE the SINES, COSINES and TANGENTS of the STANDARD ANGLES in the UNIT CIRCLE or to PERFORM PURE LOGIC FUNCTIONS. My GENIUS lies in OTHER AREAS.
I have PTSD and SCHIZOAFFECTIVE DISORDER. I have DISQUALIFIED myself from ever being a Presidential Candidate or ONLINE BANKER or ANYTHING REQUIRING a SECURITY CLEARANCE. I'm taking a HIGH dose of an ANTIPSYCHOTIC MEDICATION and I eat half of a HIGH-THC POT BROWNIE EVERY night (when I'm not in school). I BLOG while HIGH as I DOCUMENT my THOUGHTS and EXPERIENCES in my BLOG. WELCOME to my PSYCHOSIS. I HAVE SOME GOOD IDEAS. I AM HERE to HELP.
THIS is a LIVING EXAMPLE of FREEDOM of SPEECH and FREEDOM of the PRESS. I DO NO HARM. I AM SAFE. I AM CONTRIBUTING to the HUMAN RACE by SHARING my THOUGHTS and EXPERIENCES and by BEING TOTALLY OPEN and TRANSPARENT. I AM VERY COURAGEOUS and I SPEAK TRUTH to POWER. I FIGHT for JUSTICE.
The MOST OBVIOUS SYMPTOM of my DISABILITY IS that I SUFFER from GRANDIOSITY and an ABNORMAL lack of FEAR. I THINK I AM a REMOTELY-CONTROLLED SECULAR SAVIOR of HUMANITY. I HAVE INVISIBLE SCIENTIST FRIENDS who SUPPORT me, DRIVE me and GIVE me GUIDANCE. I AM a TEACHER and a HEALER and EVERYTHING I DO is DESIGNED to be EDUCATIONAL.
I ASSUME UBIQUITOUS SURVEILLANCE. I AM TOO HONEST and OPEN and TRANSPARENT for my OWN GOOD in this UNIVERSE in the SHORT TERM but I ASSUME a HIGHER PURPOSE in which it's for the GREATER GOOD as it MOVES us towards a BRIGHTER FUTURE in a PARALLEL UNIVERSE for the LONG TERM.
Uncle Sam LETS me SAY ANYTHING I WANT. I USE the OPPORTUNITY to TAKE OVER the WORLD and SET EVERYBODY FREE. My SOCIAL SECURITY DISABILITY is NOT in DANGER. Uncle Sam PAYS me $1709/month. I guess that's STANDARD LORD and SAVIOR PAY based on my work history. They HAVE my PERMISSION to STUDY me as a CASE STUDY. I'm a NONVIOLENT DRUG OFFENDER. My current arrangement is less COSTLY and MORE HUMANE than PRISON.
These HTML SCREENSHOTS will show you the general style of my BLOG. My BLOG is a long COLOR-CODED SCROLL that is INTENDED to be TRANSLATED into OTHER LANGUAGES with similar GRAPHICAL TITLES with COLOR-CODED WORDS in the target LANGUAGE. I use COLOR-CODED WORDS and PHRASES as full-width TITLES then just ASSEMBLE the TITLES into long SEQUENCES with certain SEQUENCES repeated multiple times throughout the SCROLL.
This is a very peculiar ART FORM. Not many people stuck around to read these when they were ONLINE originally because the page load times were over a minute on a typical broadband connection. Most of my traffic is people looking for a dictionary. I have an open source dictionary, but really the website is a BLOG specializing in BANKING REFORM and GOVERNMENT REFORM.
I take full advantage of my FIRST AMENDMENT RIGHTS. I've never been contacted by the U.S. GOVERNMENT over anything I've written and I use their logos extensively when I am addressing their areas of interest. I guess we're on the same team, even though my BANKING PROPOSAL is to CREATE FREE and REAL TIME ONLINE CENTRAL BANK that eliminates the need for ALL TAXATION and DEBT. It's a WHOLE NEW BANKING MODEL.
