# ALIEN IN CALIFORNIA: A three-foot tall pilot of a flying saucer from
another planet has been kept alive in an incubator room in the state
of California for two years, and progress is being made in efforts
to communicate with him: http://www.sightings.com/general/ufonew.htm
@ Have blood cells ever been found in dinosaur fossils? Actual red blood
cells in fossil bones from a Tyrannosaurus rex? With traces of the blood
protein hemoglobin (which makes blood red and carries oxygen)? It sounds
preposterous -- to those who believe that these dinosaur remains are at
least 65 million years old. It is of course much less of a surprise to
those who believe Genesis, in which case dinosaur remains are at most only
a few thousand years old. http://christiananswers.net/q-aig/aig-c026.html
: Have you stored any aliens/dinosaurs/spirits/cretinists lately? Do aliens/
dinos/cretinists have red/yellow/blue/fluorescent blood? Have you checked'em
all? Do they talk to you? Are they recalcitrant research subject? D'ya fret?

# New Weather Modification Research Papers - The use of satellites, HAARP
& microwave frequencies to manipulate and control severe weather patterns
is Science reality. Believe it: http://www.sightings.com/general/neww.htm
: Have aliens started melting your planet's icecaps lately? Do they utilize
heat rays, greenhouse effects, solar flares, tectonic activity, all of the
above? Have you fought back against weather modification / global warming?
What's the best way to keep ice sheets intact? Have you tries SuperGlue??

# Crowd-control cookery: Microwaves among new non-lethal weapons. WASHINGTON
(Gannett) In Seattle, unruly demonstrators disrupting WTO talks clashed
with police. Halfway around the world in Kosovo, U.S. peacekeepers faced
stone-throwing mobs. Gunfire as a response in either case would have been
disastrous - and wasn't used. Police and soldiers in both confrontations
had at their disposal a new, and some say controversial, arsenal designed
to sting, stun, entrap, immobilize, sicken, knock the wind from - but not
kill - assailants, suspects, agitators or enemies they are used against.

# Arab health ministers forbid human cloning, launch anti-smoking campaigns
and call for a comprehensive strategy to fight AIDS and drug use. No word
on punishment amputations: http://vny.com/cf/News/upidetail.cfm?QID=75812
: Does your conspiracy control/manipulate/influence human thought/behavior/
feelings? Do the microwaves you use for crowd-control also contribute to the
global warming? Does AIDS result from your manipulations? Are clones easier/
harder to control than normal humans? Have you cloned any smokers lately??

# UK AIDED US INDUSTRIAL SPIES? Britain came under unprecedented pressure
from its European partners to reveal the extent of its involvement in a
US-led spying network said to be used for industrial espionage. Bother.
http://www.newsunlimited.co.uk/international/story/0,3604,154255,00.html
# US And Britain Assure EU They Are Not Spying. BRUSSELS (Reuters) - The
European Union has said it has received assurances from the United States
& Britain that their intelligence services are not involved in industrial
espionage. No, it wasn't us: http://uk.news.yahoo.com/000330/1/a2nki.html
: Do you prefer to spy for economic/industrial, political/military, social/
religious, artistic/esthetic reasons? Are you addicted to spying? Have you
tried to quit, but just can't? Do voices in your head insist that you spy?

WARNING: It's that time again!
As many of you know, each year the Internet must be shut down for 24 hours
in order to allow us to clean it. The cleaning process, which eliminates
dead email and inactive ftp, www & gopher sites, allows for a better-working
and faster Internet. This year, the cleaning process will take place from
11:59 p.m. GMT on March 31 until 12:01 a.m. GMT on April 2. During that
24-hour period, 5 powerful Internet-crawling robots situated around the
world will search the Internet and delete any data that they find. In order
to protect your valuable data from deletion we ask that you do the
following:
1. Disconnect all terminals and local area networks from their Internet
connections.
2. Shut down all Internet servers, or disconnect them from the Internet.
3. Disconnect all disks & hard drives from any connections to the Internet.
4. Refrain from connecting any computer to the Internet in any way.
We understand the inconvenience that this may cause some Internet users,
and we apologize. We are certain, however, that any inconveniences will be
more than made up for by the increased speed and efficiency of the Internet,
once it has been cleared of electronic flotsam and jetsam. We thank you for
your co-operation.
Kim Dereksen, Interconnected Network Maintenance staff Main branch,
Massachusetts Institute of Technology
NOTE: Sysops and others: Since the last Internet cleaning, the number of
Internet users has grown dramatically. Please assist us in alerting the
public of the upcoming Internet cleaning by posting this message where
your users will be able to read it. Please pass this message on to other
sysops and Internet users as well. Thank you.

screeds are not allowed. Substance—not soap-boxing! These are sordid matters

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 credence to Holocaust denial and
nazi's need not apply.
