He's like Mathias Rust - ham - 12-25-2008
Quote:George has what I'll call Mike Tyson syndrome. And George... if you don't understand what I mean by that research it. You obviously have plenty of time on your hands.
He's like Mathias Rust.
Most DO know who Mike Tyson is.
Do YOU know who Mathias Rust is?
I bet you don't.
Yet for a while he made headlines all over the world.
He was the German civilian who landed a private aircraft in the very center of Moscow in 1987 later becoming some peacenik and flower-power pop-culture hero.
Spotlights were powered off, and Rust couldn't let it go.
He couldn't peacefully revert to anonymity: he desperately needed to be 'someone' again, but the world had bigger fishes to fry than the joyride of a lunatic pacifist who was spared a life sentence or execution in the USSR by international pressure.
Rust's later life started to revolve around the hope to -one day- be a spotlighted celebrity again.
Meanwhile, he considered himself a celebrity and expected the general public to behave accordingly, being frustrated to the point of violent anger outbursts if that didn't happen.
He was quoted to approach people asking 'do you know who I am, don't you?'.
He was later sentenced for stabbing a woman who had rejected him; for shoplifting; for fraud...
His last attempt was a cheap website promoting a pacifist agenda.
The website is long gone (the hosting fee must have been too high), but we can read on its defunct pages what Rust believed in:
Quote: The participants of Orion and Isis made up their minds to face the world´s permanently increasing violence.
To fight violence by providing proper redress, 25 individuals longing for peace and dialogue in the world came together among them, a certain number of former Nobel Peace Prize winners and respectable scientists from all over the world.
Each of them is highly experienced in his\her faculty and able to deal with all concerns in a precise and professional way.
Orion and Isis is a so called "think- tank" or "brain- pool" of a special kind.
Contrary to general belief, Orion and Isis is neither transparent from the outside nor from the inside.
The participants don´t know each other either.
This total isolation was created specifically to keep destructive emotions like jealousy, envy etc. with regards to inner human relations as far away as possible, so that work may be carried out objectively and efficiently.
Only Mathias Rust, the coordinator of Orion and Isis, has knowledge of all the identities concerning the participants. He is also the founder of Orion and Isis and is exclusively in charge of dividing and distributing job loads.
Furthermore, he is responsible for formulating the final solution, which is given coherence by taking the different solutions generated by the participants.
Hey!
Isn't this lunatic oddball the poster boy for all 'internet experts' and cliques that rule various fora?
So he was going to pass the fecal byproduct of his emotionally challenged and probably mentally unstable ego as the gem picked from the brains of 25 nobel prize winners...
Here it's how Rust saw himself:
Quote:Mathias Rust had dreamt of joining Gorbachev´s political movement by playing an active role on stage to convince e.g. the Soviet youth of the new
policy.
Instead, he found himself locked out of this so admirable policy.
He felt completely misunderstood after Michael Gorbachev publicly stated that he disapproved of the flight of his most likely biggest admirer.
In addition to that, he stated that he felt personally offended and his pride was seriously hit.
The German press attacked him and pushed him out of his weak balance, they didn´t realize, that he was still soaring between dimensions.
