# Report Of Chupacabra 'Eggs' Now Part Of The Mystery. The strange creature
took prodigious leaps and bounds and at one point gave the impression of
floating in the air(might it have something similar to wings?). The patrol
returned with several "eggs" found at the location where the creatures
were taken by surprise. http://www.sightings.com/general2/chupss.htm
# FIELDS OF DREAMS - The Crop Circle Phenomenon in Canada. The UFO 2000

# UFOs over New York: http://www.westchesterweekly.com/articles/ufos.html

rather study cerealogy, videography,chupacagraphy, iridiology, sexology, me?

# Mars & July 2000: Are We Lambs to the Slaughter, Mr.President? So could it
be that Comet 76P passed Mars, caused Phobos to become even more unstable,
to a point where, in the course of the next ten days or so, it finally
breaks free of its Mars orbit? If that is the case, does anyone out there
have a clue how long it would take Phobos & Earth to reach the same point
in space? http://www.millenngroup.com/repository/cometary/marshit3.html
# Atomic Ruins 8 Millennia Ago. A construction team discovered the site in
Rajasthan, India while preparing to build a housing development. The heavy
layer of radioactive ash in a 3-mile-square area concealed "an ancient
city where evidence shows an atomic blast dating back thousands of years,
from 8,000 to 12,000 years, destroyed most of the buildings and probably
a half-million people." http://www.cosmiverse.com/paranormal061302.html
: Have you blasted any cities/planets/galaxies lately? D'ya use planetoids,
bombs, black holes, divine wrath, antimatter, propaganda? D'ya give adequate
warning? Is it fun to watch the doomed populace squirm,panic, self-destruct?

@ Neurology and neuroscience have taken over the world of novels, shaping
literary form and content in the way that Freud's ideas once did. Just
what the world needs: http://prospect.org/archives/V11-13/blume-h.html

via e-mail can help doctors speed diagnoses, the potentially poor quality
of these images may increase the odds of a wrong diagnosis. Death By
Email: http://www.healthcentral.com/news/newsfulltext.cfm?ID=35433
: Have you looked at any digitized neural/biological/cyborg systems lately?
Are the errors negligible? Did you fix any damaged systems? Are the patches
hardly noticable? Do they almost act the same? Are they feeling much better?

# Internet Satellites Going Cheap. (Wired) Why spend billions on a satellite
network when you could spend a mere $4 million? One entrepreneur proposes

# Animal magnetism - Do creatures use a chemical compass to find their way?
THE internal compasses of some animals might work by detecting minute
changes in the pace of biochemical reactions in different magnetic fields.
Theoretical studies could contribute to the debate on whether the electro-
magnetic fields of powerlines cause diseases such as cancer. Or they might
be ignored again: http://www.newscientist.com/news/news.jsp?id=ns224239
# Navy sonar may have killed whales. SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico (AP) - Autopsies

: Have you confused/killed/misled many animals lately?Are they easy to dupe?
Are you? How's your sonar? Are you sometimes misdirected? Do you crash into
obstacles, curse,try again, drown? Is your chemical compass psychedelicized?
