Space Cadets

Ok, to be honest, I don't think I have ever watched reality Tv, as they call it. But this one has me interested. The idea is this. Convince 9 people that they are really taking a trip to space and see if they catch on. It is a british show, but I hope they will bring it over here.

The article to read is in the Independent Online.

Tinfoil Hats - the REAL conspiracy

It seems that some engineers at MIT experimented with tinfoil hats just to see how effective they actually were.

Oddly, for certain gov't. control frequencies, it amplified the signal.

The paper is a must read.

Fishy Influenza

Something funky is going on with this bird flu and it isn't making me laugh. All of the sudden, we are warned, threatened, and sacred that this particular virus will jump to humans and become this ultra-deadly killer, that must be stopped at all costs.

Why?

Why should I expect this particular flu to be a threat, more so than others? Suddenly, the flu is a huge public health hazard. What about years past? Why is it suddenly a health hazard? Is it just pharmacutical companies selling vaccines? or is it government planning something? I have to confess, I think it odd, that we suddenly need a flu pandemic plan. There have been plans worked out before for national medical emergencies, for small pox for instance. But now they are preparing us to get used to travel restrictions, and other things 'necessary' to stop the flu, "for our good".

If it wasn't essential for real pandemics in the past, ie. the 1918 flu pandemic, why now? Simple, because now they can get away with it. Is it that simple? We shall see.
