So are you saying that all the people at the funeral are in on and part of the hoax? Regarding the sunflowers, I remember the clip at the end of the Earth song video where the child gives the flower to the soldier (through the heart of a child) who offers the sunflower to MJ, and looks like he's bowing to the king, the peacemaker, who stops the tank and wants to stop wars. "See the nations turn their swords into plowshares." from Heal the World. I see the field of sunflowers and the man giving 1500 as a picture of us as the army of love (1500 is a small token amount of his huge field of probably millions). OUr bright happy faces following Michael where-ever he goes, bringing love to the world. In this song it's not "empty space" but "Make a little space, make a better place." What if Michael wants us to be collectively more vocal, more cheerful, positive, all MJ fans united in love.
I most certainly think that he wants that. I mean that's part of his message, not just for MJ fans but for everyone <!-- s8-) -->8-)<!-- s8-) -->
Flower power was a slogan used by the American counterculture movement during the late 1960s and early 1970s as a symbol of passive resistance and non-violence ideology.

Movement
By late 1966, the Flower Power method of guerilla theater had spread from California to other parts of the United States. The Bread and Puppet Theater in New York City staged numerous protests which including handing out balloons and flowers with their anti-war literature.[12] Workshop in Nonviolence (WIN), a magazine published by New York activists, encouraged the use of Flower Power. In May 1967, Abbie Hoffman organized the Flower Brigade as an official contingent of a New York City parade honoring the soldiers in Vietnam. News coverage captured Flower Brigade participants, who carried flowers, flags and pink posters imprinted with LOVE, being attacked and beaten by bystanders.[12] In response to the violence, Hoffman wrote in WIN magazine, "Plans are being made to mine the East River with daffodils. Dandelion chains are being wrapped around induction centers.... The cry of 'Flower Power' echoes through the land. We shall not wilt."
On the following Sunday in May 1967, WIN activists declared the Armed Forces Day as "Flower Power Day" and held a rally in Central Park to counter the traditional parade. Turnout was low and, according to Hoffman, the rally was ineffective because guerilla theater needed to be more confrontational.[12][13]
(In the United States, Armed Forces Day is celebrated on the third Saturday in May. It marks the end of Armed Forces Week, which begins on the second Saturday of May and ends on the third Sunday of May.)
Legacy
The iconic center of the flower power movement was the Haight Ashbury district in San Francisco, California.[18][19] By the mid-1960s, the area, marked by the intersection of Haight and Ashbury Streets, had become a focal point for psychedelic rock music.[20] Musicians and bands like Jefferson Airplane, the Grateful Dead and Janis Joplin all lived a short distance from the famous intersection. During the 1967 Summer of Love, thousands of hippies gathered there, popularized by hit songs such as San Francisco (Be Sure to Wear Flowers in Your Hair). A July 7, 1967, Time magazine cover story on "The Hippies: Philosophy of a Subculture," and an August CBS News television report on "The Hippie Temptation"[21] as well as other major media interest exposed the hippie subculture to national attention and popularized the flower power movement across the country and around the world.
Mind-blowing, I'm shaking my head in wonder! I'm learning so much every day. It's like Michael is like a tour-guide taking us through a tour of his life and heart. What an adventure!"We're going to take them places they've never been before and show them talent like they've never seen before."
