# Ex-Navy engineer demos his homemade, bargain-basement, computer-killing
'gun.' WASHINGTON -- With $500 and a trip to the hardware store, saboteurs
can build a device capable of disrupting computers, automobiles, medical
equipment and nearly anything else dependant on electronics, according to
a California engineer who demonstrated a homebrew computer death-ray.
http://www.zdnet.com/zdnn/stories/news/0,4586,2331772,00.html
: Have you built any death-rays lately? What sorts of electronic gear would
you like to destroy? Do have any targets? Are you a target? Am I a target?

# Travis AFB - UFO Hysteria. According to the newspapers and TV - which
became aware that something was "up" when massive numbers of aircraft
began taking off - UFOs were buzzing the (Travis Air Force) base, and
the base also lost all communication with the outside world. It was a
foggy night so the craft buzzing the base could not be seen visibly,
only on radar. http://caus.org/mc091099.htm
: Are you hysterical about UFOs? Are UFOs hysterical about you? Have ya lost
all communication with the outside world? Are you only visible on radar? Eh?

# ENCOUNTER CULTURE - Beachside Calif. gains reputation as UFO central, but
some don't quite see the light. LOS ANGELES - Ever since the 60s, Topanga

These days, the talk of the beachside canyon community - an enduring haven
for old-time hippies, New Age herbalists, nudists, bikers, cultists and
every combination thereof - is UFOs. Lots and lots of UFOs.
http://www.dallasnews.com:80/national/0910nat10ufo.htm
: Do you prefer hippies, NewAgers, herbalists, nudists, cultists or aliens?
Are you a nude alien hippy biker? Is your community lost in a space warp??

# More than 1,000 attend expo in San Mateo. (P3N) For the past 23 years says

take me aboard their spacecrafts," Parela said yesterday at the Bay Area
UFO Expo, a two-day event that attracted more than 1,000 people to the San
Mateo Marriott Hotel. "They share information with me, in a telepathic
language that is like pictures." http://caus.org/pn090999.htm
: Are you regularly abducted? Are you fed information? Have you come to ex-
pect this? Do you mark your calendar? Are the ETs like clockwork or sloppy?

# Scientists Witness Peculiar Gas. (BBC) Physicists have created a new form
of matter called a Fermionic gas by super cooling atoms of potassium. The
new gas follows the laws of quantum mechanics, behaving really weirdly.

# Strangest superfluid wins recognition at last. One of the most bizarre
liquids known has won its discoverers the Nobel Prize in Physics. David
Lee, Robert Richardson and Douglas Osheroff created 'superfluid' helium-3
in 1971. "The weird thing about superfluid helium-3 is that it can have
different properties in different directions, rather like a piece of wood
with a well-defined grain." The liquid that climbs the walls - see

: What's y'r favorite superfluid? Is it difficult to swim in, drink, splash?

# MARS ATTACKS. Once, their dreams of a manned Mars mission seemed as far-
fetched as time travel. But now that they've infiltrated NASA, local mem-
bers of the Mars Underground have come up for air. Building a model Mars
colony: http://www.metroactive.com/papers/metro/07.29.99/mars-9930.html
: Have you colonized any planets lately? Have any aliens colonized ours? Is
interplanetary colonialiazation as oppressive and exploitative as ours was?

Office is making two projects possible: the Naval EarthMap Observer (NEMO)
and the WinSat satellites. http://www.space.com/news/naval_research.html
: Do you run a govt agency? How big is your space program? How far can you
expand? Do you want to take over the world, the solar system, the universe?

@ Weather Control. THE BAD NEWS IS THAT GLOBAL WARMING IS REAL! THE WORST
POSSIBLE NEWS IS THAT SCIENTISTS ARE CREATING WARMING, STORMS AND NATURAL
DISASTERS!! The UN established a global War Crimes Tribunal that will

# Voices" in elevator prompts building evacuation. After elevator riders
heard mysterious voices coming from the shafts, building engineers did a
search and found a boom box with a cassette recording. Some 1,500 San
Antonians were scooted out of the building while authorities tried to
figure out what was going on. So it wasn't Satanic possession after all.

nz.shtml
: Do you hear voices? Does anyone else hear them too? Do the voices tell you
to leave the building? Have you left yet? Has Elvis left the building yet??
