1977?

It is not a prediction I can make with any degree of accuracy, as I don't have the data or the know-how.

All the same, something's gotta give. And it won't be them who give.

In Spain, it's 1977 again. A vacuum of constitutional reform, the traditional alliances at the top have less and less visible legitimacy. There's a couple of options on the left, which I fear will be bold enough to challenge and not bold enough to pursue a real victory over the status quo.

Meanwhile, recent changes at the top. There will be redeployments like in 1980. Do you remember those? Did you read about that?

There's a real difference. They've got the Intel. And we, as the naive good-hearted people we are, provided it. We actually PAID internet connection charges to provide it:

-"We are the dead", said Winston.
-"We are the dead", said Julia.
-"You are the dead"
-"It was behind the picture."
-"You are the dead. It was behind the picture."

It's just paraphrased, of course, but you know the passage if you read it. It's Mr. Blair, AKA Orwell.

It's 1977, heading for that 1984?

I wonder.
