No, Doug died several years ago I believe from that odd form of cancer that several TMers got. I think it was cancer of the bile duct. Didn't Skip Alexander die from the same thing? --- Louis McKenzie [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Is Doug Henning alive? - Original Message From: shempmcgurk [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com Sent: Sunday, November 18, 2007 3:43:33 AM Subject: [FairfieldLife] Re: Doug Henning and Vegas (was Poverty) I am confused.

Between those two you will find a star constellation called Auriga (the charioteer). On either the left or the right side within that constellation (can't remember you would need to look it up), you will see a small group of 3 stars. One of those stars is Doug Henning's. The small group of stars is called the Magicians True story.

I suspect ths is a FF urban myth. Remember that warning from Vlodrop back in February about avoiding electromagnetic radiation?

I suspect ths is a FF urban myth. Sure sounds like it. There is an old style of romex wiring that had an asbestos sheath on the outside, but the asbestos doesn't break free unless the sheath is physically disturbed. Sitting inside a wall, not being moved, the asbestos stays put. And, it could very well be that that wire was no longer in use when the frats were built.

Remember that warning from Vlodrop back in February about avoiding electromagnetic radiation? I agree, Judy, it does have a certain voodoo aspect to it :). But when I first heard it it seemed to make some sense. Supposedly he was sleeping on a mattress on the floor, right above some faulty wiring, which they then fixed afterwards. I don't know any more than that. Perhaps Jim will check in here and give his views. Sal
