Actually, I had a similar response whey i was posting BIP material at MW. There was an opinion that it was overly pessimistic because we could never break free, and we called it a "prison".

I eventually won some of them over, though.

I think it's the terminology.  People don't want to be told they are imprisoned within their own minds.  They want to be told they are free-thinking, free-willing individuals.

It's not until they have dug into the BIP and gotten it under their fingernails that they understand what the terms truly mean.

The average stranger will react well to being told that he thinks, but not nearly as well when you actually do make him think.

You just made me think of that mad song (pwei? art of noise?) something about "happy birthday dad I'm in jail. And I like it here"

just googled it - no joy - anyone remember?

Rings a bell, Silly...but it doesn't reappear in my memory banks, sorry.

Exactly.  I think that's Laz's problem right there.

Hooray, wikipedia.

Ha!  There you go...I think that's in the playlist at the 94.9FM station here, if I'm not mistaken.  They play obscure stuff a lot by request.
