# Alien Implant Removal. The ninth alleged alien implant was surgically
removed from the left forearm of Tim Cullen on 5 Feb 2000. The operation
was performed at a medical facility in Thousand Oaks, California. Removal
of the small, "melon seed" type implant went very quickly, and smoothly.
The operation was videotaped by The Learning Channel for an upcoming
show. The aliens remain unperturbed. http://www.caus.org/pc022500.htm
# The NSA and UFOs: http://www.nsa.gov:8080/docs/efoia/released/ufo.html
: Have you had any implants removed lately? Did the ETs just stick more in?
Did they have govt help? Were you implanted in real/virtual/spiritual ways?

# Nanotech Advance. Researchers report a major step forward in nanoscopic
pattern transfer. The findings have implications in paving the way for
still-smaller integrated circuits, magnetic storage in computers, and on-
chip sensors; all of this without the use of chemicals. Memories are made
of this: http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2000/02/000225080330.htm
# New Microscope Can Trap, Observe Individual Atoms. WASHINGTON (Reuters)
Using highly reflective mirrors, scientists said on Thursday they had
created a kind of microscope that can trap and observe a single atom at
a time. http://news.excite.com/news/r/000224/16/science-science-atoms
: Do you need highly reflective mirrors in order to talk? Can you talk with
smudged, dull mirrors; tin cans and string; hand-waving; rhythmic farting?
Can you handle like rilly rilly small stuff? D'ya prefer bigger stuff? Why?
# Revenge of the Supercomputers. Remember the ENIAC, with its rows of wires
and tubes? They're smaller and faster now, and they're changing life as we
know it. Yow. http://1.digital.cnet.com/cgi-bin1/flo?x=dAAguAuBgBwhAomuY

Side? Will you conquer the world for Truth & Light? Will you kill heretics?
Are your deities delighted/puzzled/saddened/infuriated by your actions? Why?

# U.S. Obesity Problem Getting Worse. WASHINGTON (Reuters) Despite education
programs & a host of different diet plans, the U.S. obesity problem keeps
getting worse. http://news.excite.com/news/r/000224/18/science-health-diet
: Is culinary fat the most dangerous substance of abuse in the world? Should
McFood be banned, its purveyors prosecuted/punished, its addicts be treated?
# Drugs For 'Mad Cow' Disease. (Reuters) A new class of compounds may be
used to treat and even prevent "mad cow" disease and related diseases.
Maybe. http://news.excite.com/news/r/000224/14/science-health-madcow
: Have you eaten any mad cows lately? If you go vegan, will you be immune;
will you fart constantly/horrendously, like Hitler; will you go insane??

# SPACE WIND BLOWS! A gust of solar wind on 24 Feb 2000 at 1430 UT may have
triggered an intense geomagnetic substorm recorded by NASA's Polar satel-
lite. That event is subsiding, but the solar wind velocity is still high &
variable. Watch for aurorae. Latest updates: http://www.spaceweather.com
# IMAGE TO COME! (NASA) Aurora & other geomagnetic events will be easier to
predict when space physicists have a global view of Earth's magnetosphere
and better space weather diagnostics. NASA's upcoming IMAGE probe won't
cost too much: http://www.spacescience.com/headlines/y2000/ast24feb_1m.htm
: Have you watched any solar excretions lately? Are you protected from the
worst of the solar farts? Are you forewarned? Have hot solar farts blasted
Earth before? Will they again? Are you ready? How much SPF juice is needed?
# Leaky Sun threatens disruption. (BBC) Space weather forecasters have
warned gusts of solar wind could affect satellites and power grids.

Putting the brakes on light. Physicists have slowed down light to a crawl
- they say you can almost touch it. A Danish physicist & her collaborators
have found a way to slow light down to less than one mile an hour (1.6 km
per hour), slower than a slow walk. Use "Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC)."

: Have you made/sold/used any slow glass lately? How slow can light go? If
nothing can go faster than light, and light can be slowed to 1 mph, will we
all slow down accordingly? How slow can you go? Are you like rilly slothful?
