@ Gibbon-o-matic! Think of a question: http://his.com/cgi-bin/fortune.gibbon

# Did brain surgery make man cook his sliced-up wife? They were lovey-dovey
until that damn operation, http://freep.com/news/mich/cook5_20000205.htm

@ Project MKULTRA: Did the U.S. Government Actually Create Programmed
Assassins? http://members.aol.com/Labyrinth13/Main/MKULTRA.htm
@ 25 Rules of Propaganda: aol://5863:126/alt.conspiracy:592924
: Have you abused/sliced/cooked/programmed any close relatives lately? Were
they easy to do? Did you need drugs, tools, mind-control rays, seasoning? Do
you have any good recipes for cooked spouse? Will you publish a cookbook??
# Enjoying melody may be a mere function of brain wiring. Roll over Schoen-
berg, and tell Adorno the news: http://feedmag.com/essay/es287_master.html

# Birth control used for wild horses. SHACKLEFORD BANKS, N.C. (AP) - A shot
of immunocontraceptive is being used for the first time to manage the wild
herd on this desolate, 9-mile-long barrier island, part of Cape Lookout
Nat'l Seashore. With the advent of the contraceptive PZP, adoption and
natural attrition no longer are the only means of controlling the herd's
size. In the spring, if biologists decide a mare doesn't need to get
pregnant this year, she will get a PZP booster shot from a dart gun.

@ Biospheric Theory: http://www.biospherics.org/linnean.html
: Have you controlled any populations/biospheres/environments lately? Are'ya
controlled or controlling? Have you had your booster shot? Should all life-
forms have booster shots? Who decides where & when? Are Illuminati involved?
# Weird vial distribution puzzles cops. Somebody's been taping liquid-filled
vials to Milwaukee area utility and light poles. Police don't believe the
80 or so vials are dangerous, but they're being pretty darn careful. You
would be too: http://www.jsonline.com/news/metro/feb00/vial07020600a.asp

@ Can The Vacuum Be Engineered For Spaceflight Applications? Quantum theory
predicts, and experiments verify, that empty space (the vacuum) contains
an enormous residual background energy known as zero-point energy (ZPE).
ZPE topics of interest for spaceflight apps range from fundamental issues
(where does inertia come from, can it be controlled?), through laboratory
attempts to extract useful energy from vacuum fluctuations (can the ZPE be
"mined" for practical use?), to scientifically-grounded extrapolations
concerning "engineering the vacuum" (is "warp-drive" space propulsion a
scientific possibility?). Recent advances in research into the physics of
the underlying ZPE indicate the possibility of potential application in
all these areas of interest. http://www.dnai.com/~zap/zpe-fly.htm
: Have you engineered any vacuums lately? Did you extract any free energy?
Will you share it with us? Have you warped any spaces lately? Are you really
that heavy? Are you inertial? Have you tried dieting? Do you lack energy??

# Colder than Space. (NASA) The detector of an X-ray telescope slated for
launch by Japan on Feb. 8 is colder than a conservative's heart, colder
than a marketing executive's gimlet eyes, colder than chilliest reaches
of our universe. You don't want to see it. The "Astro-E" mission will
target clusters of galaxies, supermassive black holes, neutron stars
and more. http://www.spacescience.com/headlines/y2000/ast07feb_1.htm
: How much of space do you want to see? Will you use X-Ray Vision? Will you
see deep into the most profound mysteries? Will you get laid, get murdered,
get robotic, get marginialized? What are the risks of seeing ever further?

in the president's proposed budget would assist federal and state

technology that lets sysadmins make company email "disappear". Why? 'Cause
