Crop Circles -- All-Natural or preservatives added? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: uunet!sparta!esanborn@ncar.UCAR.EDU (Edward Sanborn) Subject: Rep rips E.T. Date: 2 Jul 90 19:22:33 GMT The following is an article found in the Monday, July 2nd edition of the BOSTON HERALD: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Rep rips E.T. E.T. won a vote of confidence from the irrepressible Silvio Conte last week on the House floor. Rep. Conte (R-Pittsfield), the Bay State delegation's merry prankster, was inveighing against funding for NASA's $6.1 million Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence program. Tongue firmly planted in cheek, Conte brandished a passel of supermarket tabloid clippings as proof that UFO's and space aliens exist. 'Conclusive evidence of these crafty outsiders can be found at checkout counters from coast to coast,' said the veteran Republican lawmaker. He cited a Weekly Worl News article describing how UFOs were set to land at Chicago's Soldiers Field during last year's Bears-Philadelphia Eagles NFL contest. 'We also know that Noah's Ark was built by space aliens,' said Conte, proffering four additional tabloid clips. 'We could take out an advertisement in the personals to locate some of these develish foreigners: 'Single blue planet seeks out alien life forms for fun, adventure, and possible romance.'' Conte, the ranking Republican on the powerful House Appropriations Committee, closed his spacey monologue with a modest proposal, 'If we continue to fund this dog ... then we should seriously consider funding of an even more ambitious program - SCI: Search for Congressional Intelligence.' ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hmm, and he's Republican. Is anyone interested in helping me educate this Representative Conte??? I think he needs the full course. -- Ed Sanborn - MassMufon State Director 8 Johnson Rd. esanborn@sparta.uucp uunet!sparta!esanborn Chelmsford, Ma. 01824 -------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Don.Ecker@f22.n30163.z1.FIDONET.ORG (Don Ecker) Subject: Traffic Date: 30 Jun 90 08:36:00 GMT Jim; Ok, you want a subject? On my Cooper story, ( Milton, who else ) I had so much information that it turned into a two parter. As far as his reaction, there has not been one - as of yet. However.... his business partner, one Michael Callan, a Hollywood type and character actor for over 20 years, has been in touch. He has some type of arrangement with Cooper in selling Coopers tapes. Coopers stooge, T.S. Bennett picked up a copy and once more as expected is spouting Coopers party line. Can't these assholes see that this does nothing but cloud everything else? For example, I just got a lead on a former radio astronomer that was connected with the NASA SETI program that has some very amazing information in reference to SETI and what has alledgedly really been occuring. I am trying to trace it down. Also I have been attempting to find out if there is anything to the Soviet incident and if so, why the media has ignored it. I don't have to explain that, as you know as well as I do. But you are right, I thought that there was something wrong with my feed, no ParaNet messages-for days...... Well, not quite that bad, but. . . . Some really amazing information on Bob Lazar coming up, hoping to be able to really do it once and for all as soon as the Cooper story is concluded, and that will be in the next issue. You know, the picture of Cooper in the Vol. 5 No. 4 started me thinking really paranoid thoughts...... You don't think that somewhere down the line that some top secret govt. spook agency somehow, with top secret Alien science, in conection with Alt. 3 somehow CLONED Joe McCarthy into Cooper, do you???? I looked at that photo, and then checked a history book with Tail Gunner Joe, then looked a Cooper, then looked at McCarthy, then............Na, couldn't be........could it??? -- Don Ecker - via FidoNet node 1:30163/0 UUCP: !scicom!paranet!User_Name INTERNET: Don.Ecker@f22.n30163.z1.FIDONET.ORG -------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Dennis.Higgins@f70.n1010.z9.FIDONET.ORG (Dennis Higgins) Subject: controllers Date: 2 Jul 90 05:43:00 GMT Does anybody out there have any idea about a manuscript about Governmental Mind-Control/UFO abduction connections? I believe it is called "The Controllers" -- Dennis Higgins - via FidoNet node 1:30163/0 UUCP: !scicom!paranet!User_Name INTERNET: Dennis.Higgins@f70.n1010.z9.FIDONET.ORG -------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Jim.Delton@p0.f37.n114.z1.FIDONET.ORG (Jim Delton) Subject: Re: GB Photos Date: 1 Jul 90 07:59:00 GMT RE:26 L & R Hoax My first thought is that it would be a lot of trouble to go thru but then (assuming ED has been up to no good) he has already gone to a lot of trouble so what's a little more work. I have tried a couple of times to get any kind of decent photo of a light in the sky at night and that seems to be at least as hard as just hoaxing something. Without knowing the "right" way to take a night photo they just don't come out and I have a hard time seeing how ED does it so easily. I definitely seems to me that ED needs to use polaroids to be able to get a good picture and that makes me think something is not right. -- Jim Delton - via FidoNet node 1:30163/0 UUCP: !scicom!paranet!User_Name INTERNET: Jim.Delton@p0.f37.n114.z1.FIDONET.ORG -------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Jeff.Ballard@f20.n3607.z1.FIDONET.ORG (Jeff Ballard) Subject: TNN UFO Special Date: 2 Jul 90 05:31:00 GMT Starting tomorrow, Monday July 2nd, the Nashville Network (TNN) will be doing a series on UFOs. The segments will be aired on a program called "American Magazine" hosted (I think) by Brad Staggs. The series will feature info on the Fyffe, Alabama sightings, events at this year's Eureka Springs Conference, and other topics. It should be interesting viewing! -- Jeff Ballard - via FidoNet node 1:30163/0 UUCP: !scicom!paranet!User_Name INTERNET: Jeff.Ballard@f20.n3607.z1.FIDONET.ORG -------------------------------------------------------------------- From: John.Hicks@f29.n363.z1.FIDONET.ORG (John Hicks) Subject: going..... Date: 2 Jul 90 06:16:00 GMT OK, gang, I'm heading off the the MUFON symposium in Pensacola Thursday morning, so anything you'd like me to try to find out or ask about, be sure I get it via echomail or netmail by Wednesday night. jbh -- John Hicks - via FidoNet node 1:30163/0 UUCP: !scicom!paranet!User_Name INTERNET: John.Hicks@f29.n363.z1.FIDONET.ORG -------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Subject: Crop Circles -- All-Natural or preservatives added? Date: 3 Jul 90 00:22:57 GMT -+I dunno, Mark....what do you think? I was never excited about the vortex -+theory, because why only in England, and only in the last few years? But -+now it appears that they DO appear elsewhere, and they do go back to -+antiquity. And it does seem to explain why they only form overnight. ON THE -+OTHER HAND, its my understanding that whirlwinds can only spin one way, -+depending on the hemisphere, and these circles are flattened in either -+direction. And I sure don't buy the 'electrical charge' bit to explain the -+lights and humming. Not that I buy the lights and humming to begin with.... Good points. What do I think? Boy, I wish I could settle that. :) Crop Cricles have really fascinated me because of the evidence left... like Yeti tracks, but a lot quirkier. Unfortunately, I haven't really gotten myself to order some books on this, so most of my knowledge is from Paranet and the mainstream press. Still, crop circles are just so strange that a 'natural' explanation just doesn't seem right: "A natural weather occurrence that spins in conflicting directions within itself, that causes precision circles, etc.? C'MON!!' If there's any- thing that makes me disbelieve the 'perfectly natural; nothing to worry about...' explanation the most, it's the precision to which the circles are depressed -- right up to the radius and everything outside it is untouched. I've been kind of burned out on UFOs lately; but I keep reading Paranet for the other tidbits that get across -- crop circle information, Tesla stuff, etc. -- and let me say that I'm glad it's permitted! - Mark G. P.S.: Perhaps I should have mentioned when I posted the article originally, but wasn't meaning to offer the article as proof of my side (hardly!), but as a conversational simulant... :) ********To have your comments in the next issue, send electronic mail to******** 'infopara' at the following address: UUCP {ncar,isis,boulder}!scicom!infopara DOMAIN infopara@scicom.alphacdc.com ADMIN Address infopara-request@scicom.alphacdc.com {ncar,isis,boulder}!scicom!infopara-request ******************The**End**of**Info-ParaNet**Newsletter************************
