I see. Sorry I got carried away then.
The problem with the public is that they don't want to be educated. Scientists and logicians have tried for decades to educate the public and they still deny evolution and global climate change. The public can only be scared shitless into things or "infotained" by public displays of drama and shock. That's how congress get us into wars and pointless "security theater" strip searches and hand swabs at the airport.
Which do you think would catch the -> average <- person's attention: (note: the average YouTube kitten watching, tv couch potato, "who's Carl Segan?", "I didn't come from no monkey", person)
1) Congress is voting on a law called SOPA which censors the US internet and can completely destroy free speech, fair use content, youtube, and fair file sharing.
2) Did you hear what happened to Godaddy? They supported some SOPA law on censoring the internet and got their ass beat. Now they're on damage control, etc....
