Heh, I see Jade and other JF members on an almost nightly basis. And I move around some. It jsut seems like wherever I go, there Jade is. Said hello a couple times, she ignored me tho.
There's a small number of corps that I'm constantly intrigued by the thought of joining, JF is one of em.

I do apologise if I have ignored you in local, sometimes its just that I am blasting through the system on 2 microwarp drives and concentrating elsewhere ;) I try to say "hi" If I notice messages in time ...

Its much simpler than most people realise Danton; The Jericho part pertains to an ancient myth of impregnable defenses breached by faith and true revelation, while the Fraction relates to a subdivision of a political faction that crosses cultural borders. Hence JF is literally the union of post-national thinkers and radicals unhindered by nationalism and desirous of forging a new cultural reality past the dead hand of hierachy and structural meme.
In theoretical terms: we see the possibilties in rapid technological advance slipping the bonds of reactionary nationalism and enabling a diaspora-born meta-culture of humanity beyond the inherited prejudice and territorial bias of current political idealogies and control systems. In practical terms: we see self-sufficiency in spaceborn assets being key to future freedoms. Artificial habitats free us from planetside territoriality. Self-replication of starships from unlimited raw material will free us from economic tyranny. And a station that can travel and manufacture ships? The key to a new society and our hopes and high aspirations combined.
I hope this explains a little of meaning monsieur.
Love and peace
Using words that require keeping a dictionary close at hand when reading your posts should be a bannable offense.

If I may:
The key to understanding what Jericho Fraction is all about is the phrase post-nationalism. Instead of looking backwards at where we came from and trying to make our future revolve around those nations, Jericho Fraction encourages us to look around us and see the entire universe as our home. It encourages us to consider ourselves not as Amarr and Caldari, Gallente and Minmatar - but as humans and post-humans living in a limitless universe.
or:
When you were a child the universe was full of promise. Every day brought the possibility of your dreams coming true, and every night brought new dreams to make your own. Most of us as adults, however, shackle ourselves to limitations imposed by our own views of what adulthood is supposed to be. Instead of limitless doors of opportunity, we close almost all of those doors in the name of nation, practicality, realism and the all-mighty isk. Now ask yourself, is this really what you want out of your life?
or:
Do you remember your first love? Your first kiss? The quickening of your heart, the sound of your blood racing in your ears? That is the feeling of all limitations being cast aside and the future opening up for you like some lovely orchid heavy with the promise of tomorrow.
or:
When you woke up this morning, did you want to get out of bed? Was today a better day than the day before? Was this year a better year than the year before? If not, don't you want to do something about it?

I was making a gentle jibe about Jade's propensity to expound in a verbose manner. I understand the philosophy. But thank you for taking the time to explain anyway.

Well in truth I do sometimes get carried away with the beauty of language of its own sake, but hey, why say anything if not to entertain, enlighten, or simply shock my love? As politics is the host structure to archaic meme domination, so too in opposition might fair passionate interchange provide an escape route for the dreams and bright aspirations of hopeful souls ... Unique interaction and individualist expression is a proof against pre-statistical assimilation of societal trends by the dark engines of heirachy and oppression. (And its not as if with the right Pod neurological hacks you can't taste and feel the sense of words if not make thoughtful analysis in conscious assessment).
Love and peace

We are a very fun corp especially when it comes to roleplay, not just roleplay pertaining to events in EVE but our own fictions involving our characters and their day to day lives in EVE.
For those wanting to try roleplay but are afraid that they will look or feel silly, they should visit la maison and watch people completely and utterly immerse themselves in it.
As soon as I enter there I AM my character. If I had to leave suddenly in rl I would rp my way out. Something like;
* The doors of la maison burst open as a Station Attendant rushes in...
Station Attendent > "Mr Ning! You own the Raven class battleship serial CAL-765RV??"
* Gan Ning looks up "Yes, I left it at the repairshop for servicing, whats the problem?"
Station Attendent > "Please disengage you holoemitter and follow me, your ships reactor has just exploded in the dockyard and its leaking plasma everywhere!"
* Gan Ning is startled, "***!" he screams, knocking over his drink to the floor, Gan scrambles to his feet and hurridly follows the attendent out of la maison
Easily done, and its fun!
