Things are changing so fast, and it is hard for us tech people to even
keep up with them. But the billion dollar corporations know things
are changing fast too, and they are trying to find ways to keep better
tabs on them and keep tighter regulations and controls on everyday
people like you and me.

In 1960 the biggest problem with corporations was happening with the
industrial revolution and the science of chemistry. Companies began
putting high levels of chloronated hydrocarbons on everything, and
even in our foods. Persistent organic pollutants (POPs) is what we
call them today, and they go beyond the chemicals used in insecticides
and herbicides. They are hormone disrupting agents, and change our
endocryn systems. You may have heard of this problem recently when
you may have read that mercury in vaccines given to children can lead
to autism. Well the level of other pollutants in the human body is
already high enough to do this without mercury, and studies have
proven it can happen at extremely low thresholds in animals. Birds
begin singing the wrong songs, and humans will become mentally
handycapped.

Persistent organic pollutants bioacumulate in the food suply, and are
magnifide. When insecticide is sprayed on vegtables, animals eat them
and the level of DDT (or whatever is in the insecticide) increases in
the animals tissue, and remains there permanetly being stored in the
fat tissue. Then when humans eat the animals meat or drink the
animals milk the level of DDT we take in is 10x greater than the level
the animal was getting eating the vegtables. Washing your vegtables
isn't going to get the chemicals off of them either. The only way to
remove them is to skin the outer layer of vegtables and remove the
leaves. The inside of the vegtable is still usually fine.

The government believes there is a threshold that is safe for humans,
and has had this policy for some time. After the book "Silent Spring"
was writen in the 1950's, president Kenedy put legeslation into place
to prevent corporations and the governments agroculture department to
use insecticides and herbacides like they were harmless. They sprayed
entire cities like downtown Chicago with insecticide, so much it
looked like it was snowing. The planes flying over the air dropping
the chemicals on women and children, were trying to do away with
insects that were causing diseases in the cities forests and trees.
But the spraying polluted the soil, and the ground water, and killed
many animals, and people. And caused all of the birds in the city to
stop being able to reproduce, as well as lead to many retarded and
deformed children being born.

Well our generation faces a different problem. And that problem is
the Grid that enters all of our homes.

We have Cable TV, Phone Service, & High Speed Internet. And all of
the services can be owned by a single company. I pay Time Warner
cable only $120 a month for all of my service, and I get free long
distance, hbo & showtime movie channels, and road runner high speed
internet. I was paying the same ammount before I switched to the
company. But Road Runner is owned by Vice President Dick Chaney's
lesbian daughter, who also owns AOL.

What the Bush adminsitration doesn't want you to know is that Time
Warner is a government ownd company that is a tool of the department
of home land security. Because the government secretly bought a stake
of the company and owns the lines all of our information travels on,
and can even employ actual members of the department of home land
security, they don't have to even get warents to search our homes or
to tap our lines. Because their company owns the lines, and checking
out what we are doing with them is just part of quality assurance.

At any time time warner cable can send voltage spikes through our
lines and zap our equipment, our computers, our televisions, or even
our microwaves with voltage spikes. It is easy for them to do this,
because all they have to do is come and do a little work on your line
and then they just have to tamper with the connections grounding.
Electrical grounding is the most important part of any electrical
application, and people don't understand what it is used for.

When doing really important technical work, in studios where they work
with computers, and audio/video equipment. They install their own
grounding equipment just to increase the quality of the signals. To
explain grounding you just have to imagine two people playing
telephone with tin cans. If you don't hold the tin cans tight enough
then the string between the tin can is very loose.

Well that string represents the electrical currents and voltage
running through the line. If the people are using the can, the string
can move every with way, and even swing around in wild untamed
circles. But if they were to ground the connection, and permanetly
tie the tin cans into place on to the sides of the buildings, and
measure the length of the string. Then the connection would be tight,
and the machine would function to transmit information accross the
string in between the two cans.

This is exactly how electricity works, because without correct
grounding in the lines, you get voltage spikes and irregular
electrical signals coming in through all of your cables. It is just
the way it works. And it reduces the signal quality of whatever
reception you are getting. The damage doesn't always happen
overnight, and even with correct grounding your machines can begin to
start losing some of their quality. That's why people buy high-end
expensive surge protectors. The little power strip you have your
computer plugged into now isn't actually a surge protector.

The voltage changes over all of our lines so much that people in
europe are actually using broad band connections over power lines, and
they have completely done away with the meter man. They transmit
power to their homes and offices simotaneously while they use voltage
irregularities controlled by digital spikes to transmit high speed
data. And if the power company needs to check how much energy you are
using, all they have to do is send you a little ping through the power
lines.

Time warner is part of the department of home land security and has
installed a back door into all of our homes. They just have to send
us some voltage spikes, and ruin our equipment. And after that they
can send someone in to fix the problem. They come into our house,
make us pay for the damages, and all the while can sniff all of the
traffic we are working with over our phones, internet, and cable.
They have more power than the power companies themselves! And they
don't have the same regulations.

When the cable guy came over to my house, he didn't even ground the
cable after he did the work, because he didn't understand why
grounding was important. And he blew up my $1000 high definition flat
screen LCD television. So at least now I realize the importance of
good grounding and surge protectors, because I didn't even know it was
an issue before now. Even when I made little electrical gizmos, I
never woried about grounding the machine. I just didn't get why it
was important. And they don't really explain it in school. Except to
tell us it protects from lightning strikes.

SO BUY SOME SURGE PROTECTORS FOR YOUR COMPUTERS, AND TELEVISION. And
anything else you want to last for years and years!!!!!

Will they get in the way of my tin foil hat?

Only if your aluminum foil hat isn't grounded. If you've been walking
around all this time with an ungrounded aluminum foil hat, then your
brain is already fried, and the aluminum foil hat isn't going to help.

If you used tin instead of aluminum, you're fucked. Didn't you read the
instructions? Let me guess, you didn't read the instructions, did you.

Corey, an expensive surge protector for all of your electrical
appliances is just common sense. If you want to keep up with hardware
technology then you should build your own PC every one or two years.
To keep up with software, reinstall your operating system every month.
In addition to XP, or Mac OS, start working with Linux (in its own
partition or on another computer) and read and experiment with
software applications just a little all the time.

As for the rest of the magickal community on USENET, learn how to use
hardware and software. You will be able to extend your influence in
cyberspace as well as the real world.

I was just outside to check the cabling around my house, and found
these small underground gutters, that collected rain, and piped them
into a basement I didn't even know I had in my house through something
that looked like an air vent. I've never heard of these before. But
in one of the gutters there was a buried GI Joe Leg, underneath a very
old bottle and a brick. I guess the previous kids had berried this GI
Joe leg. And then in the other gutter around the corner, I found a
ground pole actually dug into the earth. It had a screw joint with a
coaxial cable plugged into it. And I traced the cable running along
the yard a few feet, and then it was just cut. I didn't connect to
anything. So it seems like someone had the balls to cut the ground
cord connecting my cable TV years ago. And my guess is whoever did it
had something going on with GI Joes, so was probably a kid. But I
can't see a kid cutting that cable for any reason. It just isn't
child like. Whoever did it understood what it was!

I got to the bottom of it. The cable used to come into the living
room, and it was the only room in the house where we had it. It rand
straight in behind the fire place. But I guess the fireplace didn't
used to be there, and now there is just an old plug and a hole in the
wall. But then the cable got ran around to different rooms in the
house and in the process, the old ground cable got snipped. But I'm
not sure why or how. I don't see anywhere where the ground cable
would have connected to the newer cables except behind the fireplace.
But that outlet looks like it is from the 70s.
