# Confessional Ad Stirs Storm In A Beer Bottle. SYDNEY (Reuters) Australian
Catholic clergy are threatening to boycott a popular beer brand over a TV
advertisement showing a young man conning a priest into giving him the
names of potential sexual partners. Then the priest got drunk and molested
the youth. http://news.excite.com/news/r/990607/08/odd-australia-beer
: Are your spiritual advisors easily tricked? Do they drink beer? Do they
watch TV? Should priests stick to wine, hallucinogens and abstinence? Why?

# Group Uses Bathroom Ads To Link Meat, Impotence. NEW YORK (Reuters) The
activist group People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, blocked from
posting billboards in U.S. cattle country claiming a link between male
impotence and eating meat, said its plans have not stalled and it will make
its point in public bathrooms. "The thrust behind PETA's provocative new
campaign is research showing that fat and cholesterol in meat and other
animal products clog up the arteries going to all organs, not just the
heart. So while Viagra has caused a stir in America's bedrooms, vegetarians
have had a secret weapon in their kitchens all along: tofu and veggies."

: Would you rather use viagra or tofu to remedy your erectile dysfunction?

@ MASS MURDERERS IN WHITE COATS. (FROM HARVARD TO BUCHENWALD: A CHRONOLOGY
OF PSYCHIATRY AND EUGENICS) The attitudes and practices of psychiatrists in
Nazi Germany that enabled them to slaughter 300,000 patients were similar to
these of psychiatrists and psychologists of the same period in the U.S. In
both countries these attitudes had common roots. And most importantly, these
same attitudes, theories and practices are still prevalent today in our own
country (and throughout most of the world). That they have not yet resulted
in as large a psychiatric holocaust here as in Nazi Germany should be seen
only as a warning and should not prevent us from stopping the spread of this
psychiatric malignancy. http://www.trufax.org/reports/lapon.html
: Is psychiatry genocidal, malignant, horrific? Is psychology a Nazi plot?

# IBM CHAIRMAN CONFIRMS ALIEN TECHNOLOGY. A theory which for years has been
regarded as nothing more than the wild speculations of the lunatic fringe
has been given new credibilty by Jerry Hartsell, ex-Chairman of IT giant
IBM. He claims in his new autobiography that the original silicon chip
technology, which underpinned the IT explosion of the late 20th century, was
derived from a secret US government project of the late 1950s that aimed to
investigate 'technology of a non-terrestrial origin'. The baffling claim has
fuelled further speculation that the 'non-terrestrial technology' may have
been recovered from the alleged UFO crash site at Roswell.

: What other technologies resulted from the Roswell crash? Do these techno-
logies serve as alien implants into human culture? Have we been infiltrated?

# GM crop trials dropping. (BBC) The number of genetically-modified crop
trials in the UK dropped last year, suggesting their development is being
hampered by adverse public opinion. People prefer natural mutations, eh?

# Scientists research body odor. PHILADELPHIA (AP) George Preti approaches
his patients sniffing. He snuffles under their armpits, takes deep whiffs
of their necks and slowly sniffs up and down their bodies. "Mmm-hmm," he
says, jotting down notes. "OK, take a deep breath and exhale into my face."

# Interstellar travel, anti-matter could be the stuff of NASA's future.
WASHINGTON. 30 years after the first man set foot on the moon, NASA is
eagerly looking ahead to the next 30 years in space, hoping to turn what
once was science fiction into reality. By 2030, NASA Administrator Dan
Goldin predicts, the first interstellar spaceship will be on its way from
Earth to a distant star. With a bow to Star Wars, he calls it the "Yoda"
mission. http://www.herald.com:80/content/wed/docs/060233.htm
: Do you prefer distant stars, nearby stars, movie stars, MTV stars, me?

"Young Elwell Overton's mama had told him many times that wakefulness is
best cured by *counting* sheep; but he just knew he would have to be a damn
fool to keep track of hundreds, or even thousands, of the woolly critters
every night when, his way, six or seven, tops, put him out until morning."
