I was given a copy of the document which came to be known as the Opal File in 1989/1990. I was given it for overnight perusal only, and being the cheeky person I was at the time, I made a copy using the fax machine. I then typed the copy I had onto my trusty Macintosh and uploaded it to several discussion groups. I named it the Opal File, because to me, it was an Australian equivalent of the Gemstone File, and what could be a more Aussie gemstone than the opal. Hence the name. The person who gave it to me claimed to have helped compile it. I have since corresponded with another person, now living in the UK, who also contributed to the compilation. Interestingly however I have seen no less than three other versions, all differing slightly on the later dates (ie the dates going into the future). I suspect some versions were damage control by British Intelligence, as it was through one of their ex-people that I came to see the document. Which paragraphs were genuine, and which are bullshit could take forever to solve. The details are now almost irrelvant as the big picture stays the same. Rich powerful families going back centuries have set up business empires with many fronts in order to deflect suspicion; provide cover and further expand by involving and corrupting others. These empires specifically control banking and currency issuance; pharmaceutical and chemical; media and very importantly, the aerospace companies (THEY are the ones to keep the closest eye on!!!). Drugs, whether illegal or legal are part of their business. Obviously they can make more direct profit if the drugs are illegal. Prohibition also plays into social population management to further maximise profits. Yes, many of our Aussie politicians are in their looking the other way while collecting money in their swiss bank accounts. If they don't do it, THEY will find another who will, and will most likely 'deal' with the recalcitrant who refused. On a national level we also find puppet bosses on the nipple who suddenly got too big and confident, two who fit this perfectly were the Shah of Iran, and President Marcos. I tried to confirm several bank account details without success. Basically I have concluded that you do not get to become a 'big boy' on the field unless you have 'the nod' from the other players. Mind you, getting the nod doesn't imply conscious complicity. I suspect Bill Gates got the nod - to set up an infrastructure tailor made to be covertly used by the NSA and others for computerised intelligence gathering - but to this day, I doubt he knows he was 'used'. Sigh - I am raving again.... gotta go Duncan Duncan M.
