@ SAKHAROV: WE CAN INSTANTANEOUSLY CROSS SPACE. Speaking in Lyons, France,
shortly before his death, renowned Russian physicist Andrei Sakharov said,
"We are looking into the fantastic possibility that regions of space sep-
arated from each other by billions of light years are, at the same time,
connected to each other with the help of additional parallel entrances,
often called 'wormholes.' In other words, we do not exclude the possibil-
ity of a miracle: the instantaneous crossing from one region of space to
another." http://www.sightings.com/ufo4/flyers71699.htm
# Hawking searches for everything. (BBC) Stephen Hawking says it could take

: Is instantaneous interdimensional travel disturbing? Do you get seasick?
Do you collect balls of superstring? Are superstrings joined with superglue?

# Ex-NASA Worker Says Space Agency Knows About UFOs. Clark C McClelland says
that for the more than three decades he worked at NASA's launch facilities
the Kennedy Space Center in Florida, he saw plenty of evidence that NASA
officials and employees were exposed to unexplainable and sometimes quite
alarming UFO events. http://www.sightings.com/ufo4/nasaknows.htm
: Is NASA run by Mormons, aliens, CIA/NSA, me? Does NASA secretly occupy the
antarctic and lunar Nazi flying-saucer bases? Does NASA make crop circles??
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
# Flood cooled atmosphere in Ice Age. Sometimes global warming can trigger a
global quick-freeze. Scientists say that as the glaciers melted at the end
of the Ice Age, so much cold fresh water gushed into the North Atlantic
that it quickly cooled the atmosphere for hundreds of years. And it could
happen again: http://infobeat.com/stories/cgi/story.cgi?id=2560385058-e08
: How fast would you like the world to cool? Would a quick-frozen atmosphere
lead to crop failures, famine, eco-disaster, forced off-planet emigration??

# Nuclear exporter freezes Greenpeace cash. (BBC) British Nuclear Fuels Ltd
have succeeded in having Greenpeace International's bank account frozen.

# The Opal File - Secret History Of Australia And New Zealand? A new report
details internationalist control of Australasian economies, politics and
resources, including drugs trade. http://netti.fi/~makako/mind/opal.txt
: Would you like to control Australasia? Can Oz be turned into a theme park?
Has it been already? Should New Zealand be reserved for Zeta Reticulans? Eh?

: Is map-making always followed by conquest, exploitation, ruination? How do
we ruin Luna? Is mapping the universe the ultimate imperialist preparation?

# Another Astonishing Crop Circle In England - Devils Den, near Clatford,
Wiltshire. Hidden Monuments? There are still some secret, private places
in the Wiltshire landscape. Places of quiet pilgrimage. The Devil's Den
is one. http://cropcircleconnector.com/1999/DevilsDen/DevilsDen99a.html
: Are crop circles fractal phenomena? Do they follow the same patterns at
micro-, mini-, macro- and mega-scales? Have you seen crop circles in algae,
rust, galactic distributions? Do crop circles always grow in sacred sites?

# BLACK MAGIC. Burkittsville, Maryland, a small town sandwiched between two
Civil War battlefields, is the setting for The Blair Witch Project, the
pseudo-documentary/horror film that goes into general release this week.
But get this thru your heads, people: While Burkittsville is real enough,
the movie is a hoax. A fabrication. A FAKE. Law enforcement officials in
Frederick County, where Burkittsville is situated, have been inundated by
calls from moviegoers wanting to learn more about the evil, child-stealing
witch who inhabits the area. Once again, folks, there is NO child-stealing
witch. It's just a freakin' movie. And the XFiles are NOT a documentaries.
G'z. http://www.wired.com/news/news/explode-infobeat/story/20853.html
: Is BLAIR WITCH prep-prop, softening us up for the official public acknowl-
edgement of witchcraft? Will gov't soon admit their Satanic links? Will new
magickal technology soon be on a par with microelectronics, bioengineering?

"The corpse exuded the irresistible aroma of a piquant, ancho chili glaze
enticingly enhanced with a hint of fresh cilantro as it lay before him,
coyly garnished by a garland of variegated radicchio and caramelized onions,
and impishly drizzled with glistening rivulets of vintage balsamic vinegar
and roasted garlic oil; yes, as he surveyed the body of the slain food
critic slumped on the floor of the cozy, but nearly empty, bistro, a quick
inventory of his senses told corpulent Inspector Moreau that this was, in
all likelihood, an inside job." --Bob Perry * http://www.bulwer-lytton.com *
