It was bad enough when I found the On-Line Petition, but this site was recently pointed out to me.

Two Towers Protest

Basically, these people, (assuming they're serious), want to change the name of the next Lord of the Rings movie, "The Two Towers", because they believe, (I can't use the word "think" here, because they aren't), it would remind people of the World Trade Centre. Never mind that Tolkien named that book "The Two Towers" 47 years ago, they want to sanitize it for fear someone who doesn't have the brains the Gods gave a hamster, would confuse the two.

Can I move to a planet where people are either a) the product of a decent educational system, or b) at least have a bloody CLUE!!!!!


Never underestimate human stupidity.
