On the back of Two Tribes EP synergism was used in a chart breaking down the effcts to be expected from a Global Thermonuclear War. One line on the chart was headed "Synergisms," with nothing but question marks as entries on the chart, because you just can't ever know what might come from them.

Pinocheted:

Will Cheney get Pinocheted if he travels outside the US?

The big turning point came on October 16, 1998, the day Pinochet was arrested in London on a Spanish court order. Since then, other human rights violators have had to worry about being “Pinocheted” if they leave their home countries.
