I recommend spending next minute reading this interesting comparison between Huxley’s and Orwell’s differing vision of the fall of humanity.

Wed, 28 Jul 2010 02:02:16 -0400

“The Estate of Michael Jackson objected to our use of the ‘dancing zombie’ in PLANTS vs. ZOMBIES based on its view that the zombie too closely resembled Michael Jackson. After receiving this objection, PopCap made a business decision to retire the original ‘dancing zombie’ and replace it with a different ‘dancing zombie’ character for future builds of PLANTS vs. ZOMBIES on all platforms. The phase-out and replacement process is underway.”

- Julian Assange, founder of wikileaks.org in an interview with Speigel
