Which is totally OT for this list...

And still does not change the fact that you are spamming disinfo under the
guise of 'truth'...if you TRULY doubted it's validity, you should have
clearly labeled it as such...preceded it with something like "Hey, I just
got this in from what I feel is a reliable source, can anyone confirm or
deny this info?"...

No, you sent it out only with a statement preceding the anecdotes claiming
it came from a 'reliable' source, thereby implying validity...


I see no such standard applied to the posters
of other conspiratorial threads on subjects referring, say, to federal
concentration camps :-)

Federal concentration camps fall under the umbrella designation of
'conspiracy research'...supposed needles left in supposed movie theater
seats does not...


That said, I find it interesting that June, my harshest critic on this
matter, made no mention of the fact that I just as eagerly disseminated a
retraction of the thread--as a hoax--in the form of another forewarded
post entitled: "SR News: The Aids Needle Hoaxes."

Only after it was roundly pointed out by myself and others that it was a
hoax, including my post with the URLs which document it as a hoax...only
THEN did you post your retraction...

Not only is spamming such stuff a breach of 'netiquette', it gives serious
researchers into such things as 'conspiracy theories' a bad name to be
associated with deseminating such obvious hoaxes...if one can't take the
time to make sure of the validity of such stories as the HIV needles, the
organ harvesting, the free trip to Disney, the any number of 'Good Times'
viruses, the flashing-headlight-gang-initiation, and other internet
hoaxes/urban legends, how can one's assertion on any OTHER subject be
taken seriously?

 -Caveat Lector-


Out of the mouths of babes! Why? HIV
and AIDS - supposivly sexually transmitted?
That means that they need a warm, moist enviroment.
How do we keep blood supplies?
The last time I looked they were kept chilled.
How could blood transfusions ever have
given AIDS? They might have given some
of the other deseases. So this is why they are
refering to the ""Fact?"" that the polio vacines
may have been contaiminated
even - "with dead virus"..

People we are being had.

This means that the Mercury
and "formalin" which is another word for "Formaldehyde"
are probally much worse
then they are saying and that it is the possibility
that those retroviruses are actually
against Mercury or formalin - something like
how the flu shot ended up actally
hurting some. I may not have the link up
exactly right, but I do believe that it is
the Mercury or formalin that is the underling
cause.

Wonder if Cattle shots are made the same way?
If so I think they are getting ready
to give us some serious trouble!!! Can
you imagion horse breeders? Sheep herders?

Still trying to make us afraid of our natural
food supply.

Does anyone have a url for how the body reacts
to Mercury, formalin or formaldehyde? I do
have some of the mercury links already.

You probably believe the organ-harvesting story, the 'you'll be killed

A 'very reliable source' which, as is always the cases in hoaxes like

First off, the HIV virus degrades very rapidly when exposed to air...no
object which may have contained the virus, including a hypodermic,
would
contain a live virus for long under such conditions.

Secondly, notice that no names of the 'doctors' who 'tested the needle'
are mentioned, neither is the facility where the supposed test was
conducted...indeed, we aren't even told what city or state this
supposedly occured in, an obvious sign that this is a hoax.

WHAT 'Metro Police Dept'?? Like the 'gang members will kill you
if you
flash your headlights' hoax, the name of the police department supposedly
issuing this alert is never mentioned...this story is ALSO a hoax.

Notice that no names are ever given, neither the name of the actual
'phone company' supposedly issuing the alert.

I think that if someone goes out and puts a needle on a seat or anything
similar, they already had the inclination to do so. Movies, e-mails, TV,
what have you are not responsible for the actions of crazy people. Perhaps
they sometimes play a role in their behavior, like John Hinckley and his
"Taxi Driver" thing, but I think that the idea that a normally sane person
could be driven to insanity by entertainment a pretty far stretch.

 No, perhaps it's because this list contains members who love to argue and
 get bitchy over the smallest, useless points, then continue to drag out
 the argument for at least 3 days until someone posts something worth
 talking about (which of course then escalates into arguing about why someone
 spelt conspiracy wrong, or why a certain joke was not funny etc.)!!

 I know what you are thinking - 'but you are continuing it with this
 message' - no i'm not. Snip!!


The replies were not over useless point, etc. Making sure that people
realize that these were all hoaxes was an important thing to do. And, it
was a good practice in spotting disinformation. Sort of Disinformation
101. The original poster's reply was somewhat cryptic on this. He claims
to have posted it as some sort of exercise, but his response seemed to
me to indicate that he is either knowingly putting out disinformation or
he did not realize that it was a hoax. I really could not tell. It would
be a great help if he were clearer on this point.

Yes, and when she got home from the movies, she had a cocktail and woke up
in a tub full of ice. Someone had written on the mirror "Call 911" in
lipstick. When she called, they found out that one of her kidneys was
stolen! She drove to the hospital to get help, but on the way she flashed
her lights at a car, which turned out to be a signal to roving gangs who
then shot her to death. It actually was a good thing since in her back seat
was a man with an axe. A gas station attendant tried to warn her, but she
didn't pay attention. I think this can all be traced back to that
unfortunate incident in high school with the frozen hot dog. Or perhaps the
incident with her cat, the tuna fish and her strange desires. Or even the
time that her parents washed her hair with honey and maggots burrowed into
her scalp. Or maybe..

  I thought that I would pass this message along ...
  THIS MESSAGE CAME FROM A VERY RELIABLE SOURCE AND I FEEL COMPELLED TO
 PASS
 IT ON TO YOU.

  (Forward to EVERYONE) INCIDENT  AT THE MOVIE THEATER

  GOING TO A MOVIE PLEASE CHECK YOUR CHAIRS WHEN GOING TO THE MOVIE
 THEATERS An incident occurred when a friends CO-worker went to sit in
 a
 chair and something was poking her. She got up and found that it was a
 needle with a little note at the end. It said "Welcome to the real world,
 you're "HIV POSITIVE". Doctors tested the needle and it was "HIV
  POSITIVE" Be cautious when going to the movies...Please check and one
  the safest ways to check is moving the seat part way up  down a few
  times and REALLY LOOK!!! but NOT sticking your hands between the seats.
  Most of us plop down in the seats.

  The following information was E-mailed to all employees of the Metro
  Police Dept. this morning 11/3/98. Pay telephones drug users are now
  taking their used needles and putting them into the coin return slots in
  public telephones.  People are putting their fingers in to recover coin
  or just to check if anyone left change. They are getting stuck by these
  needles and infected with hepatitis, HIV and other diseases. This
  message is posted to make everyone aware of this danger. Be aware!!!
  The change isn't worth it! This information came straight from phone
  company workers, through the EMT instructor. Make sure you share this
  information with your family and any one else you can

And how would anyone know if it is "drug users" who are doing this?
Now there's a conspiratorial thought.
