I have always found B&F as an uneducational tool for advertising.
I have always
believed that it is simply a way of making money for the producers,
while I have no
problem with making a living, it should be done in a way that is not
simply taking
advantage of children's young and flexible minds. For instance the
advertising on the
show, and the lack of realism give the young children a misguided view
of society.
Why I Joined The Jihad
I was actually searching using a search engine in the summer of '98
(winter in the US)
when I found a story written by a TRES Corps member. After reading
all 7 parts of it I
endeavoured to find out more about this TRES Corps. I eventually found
the TRES
homepage, and read the FAQ, and then thought, "Why not write stories
for a worthwile
cause." (or something along those lines). In my application I said
that I liked R&D and
story writing. I was accepted and posted to Zeta squad.
