Hi there folks, After 30 years of non-stop research into the "Fortean side" of life, the ancient advice of the (True)Alchemists is still sound: "For each step away from your mother, dilute the information of all" "First, in determining the truth, look to the agenda/purpose of the teller" " follow the gold, for where it nests, is the real truth".
EVERYBODY has a vested interest and normal people are open about it. The professional makes his living from the sales pitch he is using. Anybody who believes that any Government or Industry financed/owned body has the slightest interest in your well-being should contact me at once! I have a terrific deal on the Sydney Harbour Bridge. Delivery right after the Olympics... and it is going cheap. Mandatory reading for all normal people trying to sort things out is to read "Sugar Blues" By William Dufty and "Secrets Of The Soil" to shake up your beliefs.
