@ [CAUS Updates] "As we head into the last summer before the new millennium,
the crop circles are once again returning to fields around the world with a
dozen formations now in England as of this update (all in oil-seed rape -
canola in North America) and the first report for this year in Germany. The
circle season in England got off to its earliest start of any year so far,
with the first formation reported in early April (usually most circles are
first reported at the end of April or early May). An interesting array so
far of overlapping circles & rings (including a 617 foot depiction of this
summer's upcoming major eclipse - ?), old-style (early '90s) pictograms and
crescents. Will they also return to Canada? Time will tell; most formations
in this country are reported later in the year, in late July or August."

: Have you seen any crop circles lately? Have you made any? Have you helped
the aliens make any? Can you make crop circles in ant farms? Do they notice?

# HOW WOULD HUMANS REACT IF E.T. LANDED? "NASA and the scientific community
are actively searching for evidence of extraterrestrial life, but what if
we were confronted with undeniable proof that ETs exist and have been vis-
iting Earth? A nationwide survey by the Roper Organization for NIDS has
uncovered the following: ..." See http://www.sightings.com/ufo3/react.htm
: Would you be freaked? Would you expect everybody else to freak? Would you
be welcoming, angry, partying, homicidal, drunk, indifferent, masturbating?

# BUYERS LOST THEIR MARBLES FOR GAG HEALTH CARE PRODUCTS. Here's a fun story
about a guy selling gag health care products over the Internet. Sales were
good for his cures for "tired penis syndrome" and a "fatoid flusher" - until
he told people they're novelty items. A reminder of how gullible some folks
are about buying alternative health care products. Apply with care and love,
folks. http://www.healthcentral.com/drdean/DeanFullTextTopics.cfm?ID=13105
: Do you have, or do you know anyone who has, "tired penis syndrome"? Does
the application of a placebo cream help any? Have you tried other creams?

@ ABDUCTION. "Raymond A. Fowler, in his book 'THE ANDREASSON AFFAIR' (Prent-
ice-Hall, 1979) gives an extensive description of an abduction experience
of one woman who was taken by the "Gray-type" aliens and later returned to
her house. These creatures... had the ability to travel between stars but
her account seems to suggest that their ORIGINAL point of origin is within
a cavernous subterranean realm." http://www.rcbbs.com/docs/cavern2.txt
: Have you ever been abducted by Grays? Are they better, worse or about the
same as Reptoids? By which aliens would you most like to be abducted? Why?

# Greens call for total GM ban. (BBC) British agriculture must make profound
changes, including a total ban on genetic engineering, says a report by 2
leading environmental campaigns. Ban hybridizing & culling too, of course.

# HAS THE SMALLPOX THREAT RETURNED? A group of scientists has gone on record
calling for anticipatory measures in case of a smallpox epidemic. Since the
disease is no longer a natural threat, vaccinations against it were stopped
years ago - so we're again vulnerable to it if terrorists unleash the virus.
A frightening prospect - who would have dreamt smallpox would re-emerge as a
threat, after being eradicated by modern medical science? Those darn terror-
ists... http://www.healthcentral.com/drdean/DeanFullTextTopics.cfm?ID=13104
: Do you wanna wage biowar? Will you use smallpox? Who will you attack? Why?

# Satan Sez. Another mental fundamentalist was shot dead by St. Cloud police
after threateningly pulling out a bloody knife - from his own chest! The
clearly disheveled Kevin Hartwig was also reported to have sacrificed his
pet pooch stating, in traditional nut-case fashion, that God made him do
it. I'm sure He had His reasons. http://home.att.net/~zazel/satan_sez.htm
: Do your deities provoke you into self-destructive behavior? Are they worth
it? Would you do better with other deities? Do you like to sacrifice dogs?
