# International Tesla Electric Company 1999 Technology Tour. Live Demonstra-
tions of Free Energy. Please tell all your friends & relatives across the
USA about this show in their area of the country. The primary reason for
this tour is to get the word out to people that this technology exists and
that we plan SOON to come forth with a product that can set them free of
the central power grid. In order to do that we need a grass roots mandate
from the people. Come and see what this is all about and then get involved
in spreading the word. http://www.teslaelectriccompany.com/free_look.htm
: Do you have a free energy program? If it works, why do you need grassroots
support? Is your program physical or virtual/political/religious/artistic??

# Window Of Superbug Vulnerability Begins. (BBC) There will be a five-year
window of vulnerability from 2002 in which people will be especially at
risk from antibiotic-resistant "superbugs". "We're not going to see new
antibiotics until at least 2007 in any significant numbers... So as more
and more bugs become resistant to more and more antibiotics, we will have
a definite window of vulnerability before the new antibiotics begin to be
introduced." http://www.sightings.com/health3/superbug_h.htm
: What's your favorite superbug? Have you developed any superbugs lately? Do
they do a lot of damage? Do you enjoy breeding them? Are they a fun hobby??

CIA mind-control rays, religious ecstasy, electroshock, a miracle, fudge??

# Accuracy for gene tests unregulated. WASHINGTON (AP) Gene tests promising
to predict a person's future health are sold to Americans, for hundreds of

of most of those tests, even though mistakes can be life-altering. See

# Monsanto And GM Companies Losing BioTech Wars On The Net. WASHINGTON -
Bank analysts came up with some grim conclusions this summer about the

the conspiracies pro and con GM foods? Would you rather eat organic crap??

# Pentagon Mulls Y2K Sneak Attack. WASHINGTON (Reuters) The Year 2000 compu-
glitch could open the door to a sneak attack on the US, especially if many
automated systems crash, the Defense Dept said in a contingency-planning
memo. To deal with such a threat, the Pentagon is working out worldwide
staffing and emergency procedures to cope with vulnerabilities that could
be caused by computer mix-ups. Contingencies are also being developed for
The Rapture. http://dailynews.yahoo.com/h/nm/19990921/ts/yk_usa_1.html
: Do you plan any Y2K sneak attacks? Who would you most like to attack? Will
they be able to shoot back? Are they bigger than you? Will you die happily?
