My eyes! My eyes!
Sorry, no picture here. I couldn't find one.

Around August 2004, I began to notice people wearing a chrome-plated "W" at the spot on the lapel usually reserved for a flag pin.
Between then and now, there's been a noticeable, although not great, increase in the number of people wearing those "W" pins.

On the train home tonight, I saw something that I should have expected, but never did: in place of the chromed "W" was a gold-plated cross pin, and, right where the horizontal and vertical pieces cross, there was a golden "W".

Something's about to go down, people. Is it the fruition of plan "W"?

4. Where did they get such a thing?
I can't believe it until I see it with my own eyes. It's just too insane.

8. I've looked online, but couldn't find it.
I couldn't even find the chrome "W", but I've been seeing them for over a year.

17. Not that one.
The chrome "W" is exactly that: a letter "W". No background.

The W cross is the typical gold cross lapel pin, but larger and with a "W" attached to the front.

16. They believed what Jesus told them - that he is God.
Maybe they just want a more tangilbe "prophet" to believe.
