The movie was released on DVD on January 9, 2007.

Mike Judge's film, Idiocracy, has had one of the weirdest theatrical releases ever. According to Cinematical, "Twentieth Century Fox considered postponing the release indefinitely, then decided at the last minute to give the film an extremely limited run in only six U.S. cities, which did not include New York. The studio did not publicize the movie one bit: no trailers, no ads, and only two stills from 2004 that everyone on the internet used in their online reviews. Overall, the film did only moderate business after its Sept. 1 release, and quickly faded from the public eye."  More >

Enjoy.

Compatible Sustainability

The 2000 Koan

Consider this...
Global warming may simply be...
Accumulated human aggression...
and ignorance...
Coming back at itself in a different form.
I mean it has to balance out
and if it has no place to go
it tends to come back
against itself.

ie:
It is just like the self fulling prophecy of...
"People who live in glass houses,
Shouldn't throw stones."
Author ? 1983

The problem is that something may seem sustainable
but not may not be compatible with the status quo
thus the need for "compatible sustainability."

An introduction to the science and art of perception management.

The phrase "perception management" is filtering into common use as a synonym for "persuasion." Public relations firms now offer "perception management" as one of their services. Similarly, public officials who are being accused of shading the truth are now frequently charged with engaging in "perception management" when disseminating information to media or to the general public.

Although perception management operations are typically carried out within the international arena between governments, and between governments and citizens, use of perception management techniques have become part of mainstream information management systems in many ways that do not concern military campaigns or government relations with citizenry. Businesses may even contract with other businesses to conduct perception management for them, or they may conduct it in-house with their public relations staff.

  • Perception management is a term originated by the U. S. military. The U. S. Department of Defense (DOD) gives this definition:

    Actions to convey and/or deny selected information and indicators to foreign audiences to influence their emotions, motives, and objective reasoning as well as to intelligence systems and leaders at all levels to influence official estimates, ultimately resulting in foreign behaviors and official actions favorable to the originator's objectives. In various ways, perception management combines truth projection, operations security, cover and deception, and psychological operations.
