    A connection between Walt Disney, the end of the 20th century, and
    things roman.....
    
    Ok how about this:
    
    In ancient Rome the mystery cult of <insert favorite mythological
    figure> performed strange rituals aimed at predicting the future and
    planing to rule the world (they always want to rule the world).  their
    hierophants decide that they can only succeed with a very long term
    strategy, and on the most propitious moment, the end of the century of
    the "mouse".
    
    The cult infiltrates the rising Christian church, moves the capitol to
    Byzantium (constantine was a member) and co-opts the barbarian
    invasions of Europe.  Later, they form the Knights Templar (Every
    conspiracy is involved somehow with the Knights Templar), discover the
    new world, and foment the French Revolution.
    
    Finally the twentieth century since Christ begins and all the various
    moles in every government, business, and military organization around
    the world look for the signal, to whom should they subordinate the
    power structures they control, and then, in Hollywood, MM appears, and
    spreads to the four corners of the civilized world.
    
    Look for more mergers like the Disney:Cap Cities deal, Look for the
    establishment of a Disney Theme park in Africa, in South America, and
    Austrailia.
    
    It's too late to stop them, their victory is sure, after all, which
    government, business, or military organization in all the world is not,
    already, a Micky Mouse operation?
