"The basic tool for the manipulation of reality is the manipulation of words. If you can control the meaning of words, you can control the people who must use the words. George Orwell made this clear in his novel 1984. But another way to control the minds of people is to control their perceptions. If you can get them to see the world as you do, they will think as you do. Comprehension follows perception." -- Philip K. Dick (b. 1928-12-16, d. 1982-03-02), How to Build a Universe That Doesn't Fall Apart Two Days Later", 1978

[Happy birthday to realinterrobang, who has a clue about the power of words!]
