Todays Thought
The tools of conquest do not necessarily come with bombs, and explosions, and fallout. There are weapons that are simply thoughts, attitudes, prejudices, to be found only in the minds of men.

-Rod Serling, writer of the science fiction TV series "The Twilight Zone" (25 Dec 1924-1975)
