   Ya, that's pretty much it.  But I don't think they even know that George   
   exists.  They simply get their thought patterns from their local masters and go   
   with it.   
      
   That's why I don't even bother to engage with them anymore.  You can't explain   
   anything to them.  They can't accept any fact tht goes counter to their current   
   beliefs.  They can't reason.  They have no self-awareness, so they can't see it   
   when they contridict themselves.   
      
   And, really, you know what they are going to say before they say it because   
   you've heard it from all the others in the hivemind already.
