Hey guys Anybody watch the parade coverage on KTLA? There is a Roseville float, and the announcer referred to Roseville as a borg town, had a borg train on the float etc. Borg comes along and takes all history away from a place. Pissed me off to hear what they said. Southern Pacific was not mentioned once. Damn I hate the borg. Just my two cents guys.

Get used to it fellows, this is endemic in todays society; it has been going on for years to our freedoms and rights, now its just going on someplace you happen to notice. Pretty much, with the advent of easy file changes in an all electronic world, current owners of any given tangible resource can and do say whatever they want to; in time, if you say it enough, it becomes the truth.
With printed media, there was accountability and a paper trail, but now that 98% of all news is transmitted electronically, what was said last night on the TV can be changed as needed, and who can prove that, let alone notice when it gets "revised", several months, or years later?
We, as a society, are treading on a slippery slope that leads to one of two outcomes; neither of which will be pleasant.

The borg is up to its old tricks again. they want to sweep all predicessor roads under the rug and pretend that the world was always yellow. The borg MUST be fought at every turn and must be shown that we will not stand fror this anymore!
