And I recently re-discovered this quote whose source has been lost:
"One of the primary means of immobilizing the American people politically today is to hold them in a state of confusion in which anything can be believed and nothing can be known… nothing of significance, that is."
One of the things that concerns me with the story of the Oakwood jelly rain is not that it's not true... It's that its 'truth' (whatever thay may have been) -- having been previously noted, perhaps engineered, but certainly data-mined -- is now used as a launching pad for another wave of disinformation and propaganda and fear-mongering.
Perhaps I fall into the category of confusion -- except that we have known history and tactics, current technologies, and -- to some extent-- known motives and modus operandi.
The quote is from E. Martin Schotz FWIW

Interesting link about the Rajneeshi event too Ed. I'd forgotten all about that.
