# Canada Reaps Bumper Harvest of Crop Circles in 1999 - The truth is out
there, believers advise - but what of 2000? A new report says 20 circular
& geometric figures were discovered in six provinces last year, a 33% jump
from 1998. But none this year yet: http://www.caus.org/ccr022300.htm
: Have you cut any crop circles lately? Why not? Did you quit because you're
bored; afraid of being caught; abandoning all hopes of communicating with us
thick-skulled humans; aesthetically satisfied; horny? What's your next try??

# Euro Report Details Vast US-UK Spy Network. BRUSSELS, Belgium (AP) - A
U.S.-led communications monitoring network is intercepting "billions of
messages per hour" including telephone calls, fax transmissions & private
e-mails, according to a European Parliament report. "We are not talking
about a trivial thing here...we cannot stop them, they will continue."
The Echelon spy-network monitors and intercepts sensitive European-wide
commercial communications; Canada, Britain, Australia and New Zealand are
also involved in Echelon. Other nations including France and Germany also
participate in a lower level in the spy-network which dates back 50 years
to the beginning of the Cold War. Everybody is an un-indicted co-conspira-
tor: http://www.infobeat.com/stories/cgi/story.cgi?id=2564525513-c30
: Have you intercepted any foreign communications lately? Can you analyze
several billion per hour? Do you need God-like intelligence to process that
many? As a deity, are you bored with being put to such mundane employment?

# Global warming is speeding up? WASHINGTON (AP) - A recent series of record
world temperatures may indicate a speedup of global warming. A research
team calculated that there is only a 1-in-20 chance that the string of
record high temperatures was simply an unusual event. We're in for nasty
weather: http://www.infobeat.com/stories/cgi/story.cgi?id=2564519053-818
@ LIFE'S TRUE BEGINNINGS - Seeded & Terraformed By Aliens. The concept of
terraforming does indeed conjure up images from the recent movie "Antz."
Nevertheless, for all we know, that is exactly what we humans -- and all
other life forms, for that matter -- are: players on a stage that seems
immense to us;but (visualize the camera pulling back at the end of "Antz")
in reality is just a tiny orb swirling through the vastness of a seemingly
infinite universe. Zowie. http://www.anomalous-images.com/text/life.html
: Have you terraformed any planets lately? Is Earth being modified for its
new owners? Have they seeded us already? Will we all die soon? Will we care?

# Pope makes 'virtual' Iraq trip. VATICAN CITY (AP) - Denied a chance to
visit the birthplace of Biblical patriarch Abraham in present-day Iraq,
Pope John Paul II prayed in a ceremony at the Vatican and watched a film
of the desert site. The pope called the special ceremony a "spiritual
pilgrimage" to honor the memory of "our father in faith." Then he howled
grimly. http://www.infobeat.com/stories/cgi/story.cgi?id=2564524336-868
: Have you made any virtual pilgrimages lately? D'ya prefer virtual travel,
virtual work, virtual sex, virtual exercise, virtual truth? Does your faith
involve unnatural sex - gay, bestial, celibate, virtual, etc? D'ya keep your
sex acts private so as not to frighten believers, animals, neighbors, me???
