@ BABYLONIAN BROTHERHOOD. As flood waters receded after the Venus cataclysm,
the survivors came down from the mountains and up from within the Earth.
They settled on the lowlands & plains and began to rebuild. This was when
Sumer, Egypt & the civilization in the Indus Valley suddenly appeared at a
very high level of technological advancement. Sumer began at the peak of
development because of this sudden infusion of knowledge & the wh-te A-yan
race, originally from Mars, expanded out from the Caucasus Mountains and
the Near East down into Sumer, Egypt and the Indus where, as even conven-
tional history agrees, highly advanced societies spontaneously emerged.

: Are your ancestors from Mars, Earth, Venus, elsewhere? Do you prefer to be
within or atop Earth? Are humans too dumb to be civilized without ET help??

# Fugitive known as solitary, religious. SAN ANTONIO (UPI) Suspected serial
killer Rafael Resendez-Ramirez is known in his hometown in Mexico as a
solitary, religious man who loves his newborn daughter & 2 dogs. But he
has exhibited quirky behavior. Neighbors say he has talked about killing
in the Gulf War, he once burned a large mesquite tree without explanation,
and he threw a car battery into the windshield of a truck that nearly hit
one of his dogs. http://news.excite.com/news/u/990712/09/news-serialkiller
: Are you a mass-murderer? Are you religious, solitary, quirky? Do you like
to throw batteries, burn trees, kill people, pray a lot? Is prayer answered?
Would you rather pray, kill people, carve crop circles, finger your implant?

# BEHAVIORAL DRUG TREATMENT EFFECTIVE IN REDUCING RISK FOR HIV INFECTION.

: What's your favorite behavioral/medicinal treatment? Which drugs do you
most often abuse? Do the voices in your head direct your drug abuse? Why?

# Zapruder film to get official price tag. DALLAS (UPI) An arbitration panel
could decide this week on the historic value of Abraham Zapruder's famous
26-second film of President John F. Kennedy's assassination. The panel is
weighing a price range of $1 million to $30 million as "just compensation"
to the heirs of the deceased Dallas dressmaker as required by federal law.
In recent hearings, the panel has received evidence that has compared the
film to the nearly 500-year-old notebook by Leonardo da Vinci, an 1858
speech by Abraham Lincoln and a 1998 baseball smacked by home run champ
Mark McGwire. http://news.excite.com/news/u/990712/11/news-zapruder
: If the Zapruder film revealed anything vital, would The Conspiracy let it
be seen? Has it already been edited? Is it as important as a baseball, Abe's
speech, daVinci's notebook? Have they all been edited by The Conspiracy too?

-Superstitions-
-Cornelius Vanderbilt had the legs of his bed placed in dishes of salt to
ward off attacks from evil spirits.
-Hitler favored the number 7 and planned major battles on the 7th of the
month, and designed the Nazi swastika so that it resembled an ancient
Buddhist system representing (among other things) the wheel of life.
-Winston Churchill petted black cats for good luck.
-Napoleon Bonaparte was afraid of cats and the number 13.
-President Harry S Truman had a horseshoe over the door of his White House
office.
-Irish Nationalist Leader Charles Stewart Parnell never signed a legislative
bill containing 13 clauses. He would not sign until a 14th was added.
: What's your favorite superstition? Does it do you any good? Has it saved
your ass yet? Does it enrich/impoverish your life? Does it fill your time?

"If the Great Spirit wanted men to stay in one place, he would make the
world stand still. But he made it always change, so birds and animals
can move and have green grass and ripe berries, sunlight to work and
play in, and night to sleep. Always changing. Everything for good.
Nothing for nothing." --Chief Flying Hawk, Oglala Sioux Indian Chief
