I *really* wish I had an archive of the old list to search. Me and that other fellow worked all of this out in pretty fair detail, back then.

But all that I can recall now is:

Meat Eating: Meat by-products were consumed as marinades forming the central feature of a new roasted-vegetable cuisine imported as the latest rage from the far side of the Thousand Worlds. Popularity was initially restricted to the upper classes, then spread from there through conspicuous consumption to the middle classes. The Hivers made sure to reveal this part of the manipulation in such a way that the interstellar leaders *assumed* the world populations were aware of the true ingredients of the marinades, when they actually were not.

Isolation: This began as a contemplative religious movement using virtual reality to simulate the empty planes and night sky of the K'kree homeworld, with the length of time each initiate could spend alone being used as a gauge of his commitment to achieving oneness with his/her "inner K'kree." Of course, when the Hivers revealed these isolation-seeking K'kree to the leaders, the fact that these individuals were *suffering* for their faith was conveniently not mentioned.
