Made in Finland added these pithy words on 22 Oct 07 at 9:44 amWhy on Earth was it that North Korea became the ultimate Nineteen Eighty-Four fantasy land? They’ve gone so far in their Big Brother trip that the madness of Stalinism, Maoism and Hitlerism put together pales in comparison. I suppose they are in process of working on some new technology that enables Kim Jong-Il to live forever. In his father’s time, genetic engineering etc. was still too primitive.
Mankind is capable of astonishing things.
