Subject: [BCPolitics] Re: Quantum theory
From: Franklin Wayne Poley <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Anything which happens, happens in this world and I CAN WRITE A COMPUTER
PROGRAM FOR IT. That is one of the messages of my latest book on "Machine
Psychology" and I commend you on getting it out of me before publication
date! So I don't care if your manifestations in this world are those of
pope, preacher or devil...I can program any and all of them.

and 'conspiracy theory', with its many half-truths, misdirections and outright
frauds is used politically by different groups with major and minor effects
spread throughout the spectrum of time and thought. That being said, CTRL
gives no endorsement to the validity of posts, and always suggests to readers;
be wary of what you read. CTRL gives no credeence to Holocaust denial and
nazi's need not apply.
