daylight only 15 miles from New York City. 2) SYDNEY -- 7 professional
fishermen said they had video footage showing a possible UFO sighting off
the coast of northern New South Wales. http://www.caus.org/mu112799.htm
: Have you videotaped any UFOs lately? Have any UFOs videotaped you? Which
is more boring? Have you sold the tapes to TV yet? Were they suppressed??

# JAMESTOWN COLONY'S SIGNIFICANCE GROWS AFTER RESEARCH. (CNN) Jamestown, the
17th century British colony that preceded the first Thanksgiving by some
13 years, may be more significant than historians thought. "There was a
lot of activity here... It wasn't just a settlement of rich gentlemen who
were lazy and didn't work and didn't know how to exist in the wilderness."
Relics of the colony: http://cnn.com/US/9911/27/jamestown.revisited/
: Are failed settlements significant? Was Vinland colonization meaningful?
If aliens settled on Earth but died out, so what? When our first Lunar &
Martian colonies fail, who'll give a damn? Will the relics be valuable??

# Lunar Link to Hot Past. (BBC) French scientists theorize on the causation
of catastrophic volcanic activity on Earth hundreds of millions of years
ago, leading to the rise of dinosaurs. They say Luna, known to generate
tides in the ocean, may have had a greater impact on the Earth's early
history than previously thought. They suggest that 3 times in the history
of life on Earth, the Moon, together with Sol, caused oscillations inside
the Earth, maybe with volcanic results. This accounts for some of Earth's
more dramatic geological events, such as the splitting of continents and
oceans. http://news.bbc.co.uk/hi/english/sci/tech/newsid_536000/536814.stm
: Do you like to blame earthly events on unearthly entities? Do sun/moon/
planet deities toy with our world? Would you like to oscillate a planet to
see what happens? D'ya want to be a stellar deity? Soon? What'll you do??

: Would you rather wear a computer or be one? Will differently-styled wear-
able computers be fashion statements? Will NSA surveillance extend to every
computer you wear, every computer that's implanted in you, every computer in
every appliance & car & tool that you use? How many computers do you need??
