may i comment here?

when i'm not having tons o' fun here at BOC-L, i'm a regular at a place
called Disaster Message Service, specifically discussions on the chechnya
conflict and what's going on in yugoslavia. at DMS, i'm "L'menexe."
on the russia page, there is a strident poster named Antonio, who routinely
rails against what he calls the "illuminati/masonic/jewish conspiracy"; in
fact he appears to believe nothing  but certain papal edicts from centuries
ago.
as you might expect, i regularly blast this individual...and when he got to
the point of burning rabbis at the stake last week, i blasted him severely
enough to a degree where he's toned down such talk....for now anyway.

point being that there are people out there who took/take the illuminatus
trilogy seriously, even _dead_ seriously.  'Antonio' would be an example.

never read it meself.
