To Linda Bird


Hi Linda,


I thought the programme was pretty good. They obviously spent a great

deal of money on the reconstructions. Kevin Randle came over very well,

I guess he usually does (when I was in Chicago recently I saw a tape

of him with Larry King on CNN where he wiped the floor with Phil Klass).


Unfortunately Unsolved Mysteries is shown here on Sky One which is

a satellite channel which only a small percentage of people can get.

However (for once!!) I remembered to tape it.


I am looking forward to the item UM are doing (?have done) on

the Bentwaters/Rendlesham Forest case. It will be 6 to 9 months

before we see it this side of the pond


Regards,

STEVE.

Steve: I have NTSC->PALS capabilities, and of course will be taping the show. Interested?

Subject: Crop Circle Investigation

Date: 24 Aug 91 20:17:00 GMT


Yesterday, August 23rd, Roger Black got word that a crop circle had been 

discovered in a cornfield in Iowa.  He went to the site and is conducting an 

investigation.  Roger will have an exclusive report for ParaNet later today 

or tomorrow.  According to early information, the circle is very 

interesting.

Hello, and thank you very much for your kind reply!

        Yes, you're quite right about the April 1 television program 

of the same name.  My source tells me that Watkins originally set 

out to write a book about how much truth there actually was in that 

program which was meant for an April Fool's joke and that Watkins 

determined that there was actually some 65% truth to it -- but then 

he wrote the book and was bombarded with letters which led him to 

believe that the percentage of truth was much, much higher.  Those 

letters are supposed to have disappeared when Watkins moved to New 

Zealand and since then he's been "lying low."  --At least this is 

what the source tells me.  Evidently the suggestion is being made 

that this television "joke" was actually a sort of disinformation 

campaign in which a bit of truth is thrown in with a lot of untruth 

to "debunk" a story which, in fact, is not false.  (Who knows if 

that's really what happened?)

        This source who told me about Alternative III also knows 

someone very high up in the U.S. space biz and mentioned this tale 

to that person only to be told it wasn't a fiction at all. 

        That is quite amazing, if true, but I cannot verify it as 

the government person naturally wishes anyonymity and my source 

won't part with a name.  

        Did you happen to see that BBC program?  Your comment 

sounded so authoritative, as if you were very familiar with it, and 

that makes me ask if you have in fact seen it.  If so, I'd be very 

interested in hearing from you about the show -- your opinion of it 

and also how it was received by local viewers in your area.

        Thank you for the reply to my message.  I will look forward 

to hearing from you again.

                                        ===Peggy==

Hello Bob,

        Thank you very much for your reply about Alternative III and 

what's happened to Leslie Watkins.  

        If you've read the book, could you tell me what your 

impression of it was?  And have you heard anything further from or 

about Leslie Watkins after the book was published and he moved to 

New Zealand?  Perhaps he shows up in local papers at events talking 

about the unusual/weird (like at UFO conferences, for instance) or 

perhaps he's teaching.  If you have any ideas or information about 

him or the book, or any comments you'd care to share, I'd be very 

interested in hearing from you again.  And I'm particularly 

interested in your impressions of the book.

        Thank you, again, for the kind reply!

                                        ==Peggy==

PS:  Did you contact, who has spoken to or knows Watkins, tell you 

whether he is, shall we say, "keeping a low profile" because of 

problems from the book, or is he merely living a normal life and not 

interested in pursuing this topic further?  The implication of that 

sudden, last-minute cancellation of the radio interview was that 

someone had warned him off, but of course it could be that he merely 

felt ill...though one would expect a re-scheduling at a later date, 

which evidently didn't happen.  I'd like to know anything more that 

you or your source might have time and inclination to share and 

appreciate your help very, very much.

        Thanks, again!                        ==Peggy==

Hi Don,

 

Will definately bug The Bill to see if I can get a tape.  I'd like to 

build up my coollection.

Hi Jim,

 

Do you have a copy of that Linda M. Howe film on Cattle Mutations?

If so, can I get a copy?  I may have something to trade you for it.

 

Thanks,

 

Lindfa Bird

Hi Clark,

 

 Let's hope that we can really find out what this object is, and that

this does not turn out to be another Roswell with our grandchildren

looking for answers some 45 years later!

 

Regards,

 

Linda

Hi Mike,

  

Due to extemely good luck, I managed to find a copy of the Aug. 

Atlantic

Monthly, and immediately made a copy of the article.  I haven't read it 

yet (I still have company this week) but I hope to catch up with my 

reading next week.

  

You were so nice to offer, though.  Is there anything I can send you?

 

Kindest regards,

 

Linda

Hi Steve,

   Thanks for your comments on Unsolved Mysteries. 

 

   I had to chortle LOUDLY when you mentioned that Kevin Randle "mopped

the floor with Phil Klass."  I see you guys "down under" recognize a

dork when you see one (Even if you ARE upside down!).  <:-)

Evidence supporting quantum information processing in animals

Donald                    1068 Fulton Av                    Sunnyvale, CA 94089-1505                    USA I show that quantum systems can rapidly solve some problems for which finite state machines require a non- polynomially large time. This class of problems is closely related to the class of problems that animals can solve rapidly and effortlessly, but are intractable for computers by all known algorithms. 1. Introduction      Animals, including very simple animals, can rapidly and effortlessly perceive objects, whereas computers take nonpolynomial time to do this by all known algorithms [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]. Our persistent inability to emulate perception gives reason to doubt the current paradigm and to look for an alternative paradigm.      Penrose[7] and many others [8, 9, 10] argue from practical considerations, Godel's theorem, and

ARMIES OF CHAOS

                          ARMIES OF CHAOS -      Before anyone proposes more gun control, he or she should know  about a simple, deadly weapon 4 times as powerful as Dirty Harry's  legendary .44 Magnum -- and at least twice as concealable -- that  _can't_ controlled.        This simple, deadly weapon can be made by anyone -- even a  child -- with unpowered hand tools in an hour's time using $5 worth  of materials, most of which are available around the house anyway.   In traditional form it's reusable an unlimited number of times, and  modern plastics have rendered its disposable version electronically  undetectable.  You can clear a room with such a weapon (more of a  hand-held directional grenade than a gun -- sort of a recycleable  Claymore mine) and it's just one of hundreds of similar time-proven  designs.        Complete instructions for building this simple, deadly weapon  could be given in half the space I'm using here and not require a  single illustrat
