Isn’t an acton some obscure subatomic particle? Or wave?

No.
It is a very small settlement in Tennessee - immediately north of Corinth, Mississippi - along Shiloh Road - Buford Pusser‘s old stomping grounds.

I wasn’t motivated to discover that. I already knew it, but the more I found out about it, the more motivated I became to find out more.

I think Actons are the ETs who are currently taking over the human race in order to enslave it.

noting the monitors' reactions...

As long as the original posting of a thread is not nonsensical, it's obviously ok for all subsequent posts in that thread to be nonsensical. :smilie8: :thumbsup:

The premise is a Lie.

It is obviously better to look before one leaps.

To navel gaze endlessly to inaction.

To analyze one’s self to inaction.

As haste makes waste.
