# LIFE Magazine UFO Cover Story Blasted. Most what Ms Fox wrote about me

you actively work to harm/help the credibility of UFO reports? How much real
evidence have you gathered/fabricated/manipulated/destroyed? Were you paid?

# More kids on prescribed drugs. (AP) The number of 2- to 4-year-olds on
psychiatric drugs including Ritalin & anti-depressants like Prozac soared
50% between 1991 and 1995. Experts said they are troubled by the findings,
since the effects of such drugs in children so young are largely unknown.
