[What follows is an incomplete transcript of Issue #1 of "Now What",
Waves Forest's periodical. It is explicitly anticopyrighted and so may
be freely reproduced and distributed.]

Greetings --

Thankyou for supporting this sort of thing. The publication you
requested, "Further Connections", is currently undergoing major
updating. The version of FC reviewed in "High Weirdness by Mail" is
five years old and many listings are no longer accurate. Instead you
are receiving a copy of NOW WHAT, which covers the most significant
items from FC, in much greater detail. There is also more urgent news
which has come in since FC last appeared. Since NOW WHAT's impact and
response have been many times greater than FC's, NW is occupying most
of the available time here. As a result FC is still buried under a
flood of additions and corrections and is not likely to be in a
presentable form for several more months.

While NW provides many information sources on the subjects it covers,
there aren't nearly the 400 listings mentioned in HWBM. However NW
does contain a lot more practical, immediately useful information.
Anyhow, if you have HWBM, you already have many of the more useful
listings from FC. Get a hold of the catalog from our allied info
service Rex Research at PO Box 19250, Jean, NV 89019 ($2) and you'll
have most of the best of the rest.

One minor error in HWBM was that FC never cost $4: it has varied from
$5 to $7 depending on size.

NW costs $4 per issue, or $15 for four issues. (*overseas add $2
postage per issue) You have a few options at this point:

1) Send another $11 (or $10, if you sent $5 already) to cover the
difference on a 4-issue subscription.

2) Send back NW in good condition, after making as many copies as you
wish, along with a dollar or equivalent postage, and we'll send you a
different issue of it. A variation on this is to send it back with
another $3 (or $2, if etc) to cover the difference on a copy of the
revised FC whenever available (don't hold your breath).

3) Keep what you got and call it even. The Government is spending
millions supposedly trying to find the very solutions you just got for
a mere $4 or $5.

All feedback is welcome, however the heavy correspondence load and
limited resources here may delay or prevent individual replies. NOW
WHAT carries no ads, and is supported mostly by manual labor.

Applying this information and sharing it with others can make a
remarkable difference in the quality of life in your community,
country and/or planet.

Have fun!

Notes on format: This unconventional material requires a non-ordinary
arrangement, if it is to be spread swiftly enough to do its job.
Readers are encourgaed to make and distribute copies to anyone who
might use the information. Instead of binding this collection of
articles as a standard magazine, it is stapled at one corner only, so
that the sheets can be easily separated and run through rapid copiers.
The main reports are designed to be reproduced and distributed with or
without the others accompanying them.

Articles are printed all in one piece; nothing is "continued on page
so-and-so". Whenever possible they are arranged so that each article
or combination occupies an even number of pages, so as not to waste
paper or postage when being re-copied and mailed to others. Where
pages are numbered

at all, the numbers are for the pages in the article, rather than the
sequence in the magazine.

NOW WHAT is basically an unauthorized informal public service and does
not qualify as either a business or a proper non-profit organization;
as far as banks are concerned it does not exist as a financial entity
at all. However its author does, sort of, so checks should be made out
to him rather than it.

NOW WHAT

We still appear to be hanging on the brink of either a New Age or
Armageddon or some weird combination of both. Yet real solutions exist
and are not widely known or used, for all of mankind's supposedly
unsolved problems.

An entire body of unused technology is waiting to be implemented, that
works by cooperating with seldom-recognized basic forces instead of
struggling against them. A world economy based on abundance, health
and cooperation, rather than scarcity, disease and conflict, can
emerge as soon as enough people want it intensely enough to make it
happen.

Many times in recent history, various inventors and visionaries have
offered our civilization cleaner, safer and cheaper methods of
obtaining the resources and capabilities we require. These offers have
all been turned down on our behalf, without most of us ever hearing
about it, by certain owners of established industries and monopolies
that will become largely obsolete when these breakthroughs are widely
known and used. They understandably wished to postpone their
obsolescence as long as possible, but no further delay of the
impending economic overhaul can be allowed.

Once we can independently obtain whatever we need in the way of
energy, water shelter, food, safety or mobility, there is no longer
any need for the massiv ebureaucracies that presently sell it to us
and regulate every aspect of what we do with it. When options free up
on this scale, people are

released from tension and restraints, and become mroe active, healthy,
imaginative and powerful, and very hard to control.

The prevention of such fundamental improvements in publicly available
technology has not really been that hard to manage. The regulatory
agencies and institutions in charge of agiven resource or function,
like energy, transportation or medicine, are invariably headed by
assistants to the owners of the industries holding the primary
monopolies on it. They have the incentive and influence to get their
people put in charge. That's how they usually get off so light after
being forced to investigate themselves for various illegal activities.

But it would be naive to assume that suppressed technologies are
merely suppressed, and not secretly in use by those who withhold them.

It's helpful to regard the world as a sort of giant intelligence test,
like a huge elaborate "what's wrong with this picture?" puzzle. Some
of what's wrong is kind of obvious, but much of the rest is conceale
remarkably well.

Finding out what seems to be wrong is already a popular  pastime, and
whining about it is even more popular. However it's a lot mroe
challenging and rewarding to go on from there and actually correct it,
as opposed to just getting used to it and toleratingit under protest.

If the real reason for any problem is accurately diagnosed, it can be
solved. This applies even to "terminal" illnesses, whether biological,
mental, political, ec onomic or ecological, though it is possible with
incorrect treatments to damage the victim beyond recovery. Simply
labeling and describin the condition doesn't reveal its cause, or
result in any effective solution.

When problems persist and worsen despite massive corrective efforts,
their true cause has not been identified, and the wrong thing is
getting "corrected" War, poverty, disease, crime, insanity, pollution,
and shortages of water, energy, shelter and food, all are persisting
and worsening, even though supposedly no one wants them. This means
the true underlying causes of these problems are not being widely
recognized, let alone corrected. So, look to see who really profits
when the problems continue.

The artificial and deliberate origin of the crises, shortages and
disasters plaguing mankind are camouflaged by blaming it all on human
overpopulation and stupidity, which are merely contributing factors.

Most of these conditions actually result from specific means used to
accomplish an earlier incorrect "solution" that has been pursued for
generations by some of the most powerful, wealthy and ruthless men on
Earth.

The "problem" was assumed to be that there were simply too many
people, with too much individual freedom and variety, to be
effectively kept under control, while ownership of Earth's land and
resources was consolidated. Guess what solution they came up with?

Not all who've agreed to this hard decision are necessarily evil. It
was just the only thing they could come up with to ensure their own
survival, without giving up much of their authority and control of the
world's resources, and risking reprisals by mobs of unforgiving
peasants, for their former exploitation.

Blaming war entirely on conflicts between nations, religions, and
political systems conceals its true roots. The creation of wars is a
basic method used by the most powerful to acquire still more
territory, and displace or subdue whoever was there already. Visible
wars are mostly a surface feature of the ongoing undeclared economic
war waged by certain of the most wealthy against everyone else, even
sometimes each other. And like it or not, both the spread of "western
civilization" and the "high American living standard" have depended on
global land-grabbing, destruction of native populations and cultures,
and conversion of survivors into cheap labor forces.

It's now widely observed that none of our political leaders have any
real agenda or plan for actually solving any of the crises threatening
Americans, other humans and life in general. However, there really is
a very detailed agenda, consisting of those very crises and their
calculated effects. It's proceeding more or less as planned. Most
political figures are going along with it whether they like it or not,
and most of you would not enjoy the next phase of it, even slightly.

So it's totally up to individual citizens to take responsibility for
what happens from here. The pieces of a painless and elegant plan for
global survival are still just lying around waiting, in the form of
nearly forgotten inventions, discoveries and options that ran aground
on the economic dynamics of their time, and fear of industrial
upheavals.

It turns out it is not really necessary to undergo the massive
population reductions and overt enslavement of survivors planned for
us by modern feudal lords. There are much more pleasant and efficient
solutions for our resource shortages and other economic and ecological
difficulties.

Through mass media control, the world's invisible rulers have been
very effective at preventing most of their subjects from hearing about
free energy systems, unused water sources, plant growth acceleration
methods, gravity control, crashproof vehicles, weather control, proven
cures for supposedly incurable diseases, or anything else that might
free people from dependency on the established monopolies. When news
of such a discovery does leak out, to the point where the major news
services can't ignore it, they mix it with disinformation of varying
absurdity and portray it as part of the lunatic fringe, which
persuades most people not to examine it closely or consider its
potential if valid.

NOW WHAT offers another chance to peel away the layers of deception,
and find out what is really going on around here, how we can make the
best of it, and what we can do to soften the impact of whatever
horrors we have yet to face.

A great amount of territory must be covered here, in a compressed and
casual form that can be swiftly grasped and acted upon; for more
detailed writeups of individual subjects, readers are encouraged to
refer to the sources listed.

Some of this material will have a rough unfinished appearance, being
assembled and run off with some haste, since people are dying for lack
of these options, each day they are not widely known and used.

NOW WHAT draws from many sources, from mainstream to sidecreek,
without regard for establishment approval ratings. Exotic and
underground science and news sources offer vital information omitted
from official media. Yet equally useful material can turn up in the
most standard publications, patents and references, which goes
unnoticed and unused, swallowed up in the flood of false or
insignificant information surrounding it.

At the level of art, consider the entire Earth as a vast aesthetic
composition, that has deteriorated somewhat, due to age and general
lack of appreciation of what she is and how she works. Restoring her
original beauty and serenity is the ultimate in Earth Art, and can
happily engage as many as want to take it on.

To subtract the artificial ugliness that interferes with the natural
beauty and joy of life on Earth,straighten out the cirumstances that
have been allowing it to occur. It's really not that much more
difficult than adding more local things of beauty, if gone about
gently, and the effects can reach farther. The media available to be
shaped and combined in new ways include every kind of communication,
information, activity and resource, and all the networking already
underway among them.

Along with however else you apply it, send copies of this information
to your favourite teachers, reporters, broadcasters, musicians,
comedians, directors, actors, politicians, anyone whose words reach
many listeners. That way it can no longer be suppressed just by
removing its early disseminators.

And the more other people know about it, the safer you are as well.

Don't hesitate to send it to people of considerable wealth and power,
or their children, for that matter. Problems can indeed be solved by
throwing money at them, if it's thrown right, and it can cost much
less than it has to create the problems.

One way those who maintain the problems manage to spread the blame
around, is to pretend as though they represent the interests of all
wealthy people.

This stimulates categorical hate and fear between rich and poor, and
tends to discourage representatives of each side from getting together
and working something out.

The poor and middle classes often fail to differentiate between the
two basic types of wealthy people. Most of the wealthy built their
fortunes by finding a genuine need and filling it, and have attempted
to improve conditions for mankind in general. But the others could
care less about all that, and choose to create and fill artificial,
non-survival needs, such as for weapons, narcotics, poisons,
assassination teams, torture equipment, and massive bank loans for
governments to finance wars. They have no more reservations about
exploiting the rest of humanity than they do about using any other
natural resource on "their property".

Unfortunately this second group has had the competitive advantage.
Being unencumbered by ethics or compassion, they can engage in
strategies for domination that the more benign wealthy would not
consider, and have tended

to take over the top positions in the world economy. Lucky for us,
their own ruthlessness  and treachery keeps many of them from trusting
each other enough to collaborate as effectively as they might, in
doing in everyone else.

There are still plenty of wealthy people who are either unaware of the
planned exterminations, or suspect it's possible but can't quite
believe it.

Others do know and are collaborating only because it appears to be the
only plan for the future that anyone with big money is seriously
behind. They haven't thought of any better idea and are afraid to
cross the really big guys, and wind up among the victims. The momentum
for "covert" global exterminations comes more by default than from the
plan's inherent appeal, except to a few really diseased minds stuck in
pain-inflict mode.

It is not impossible to identify the most powerful and least visible
of Earth's unpublicized owners, and sort out which are pro-genocide,
but then what? What options are there, if any, for rendering these
self-appointed population pruners harmless?

Any direct assault on the powers behind the scenes, whether judicial,
legislative, military, or through media, gets smothered or sidetracked
because those same powers already control any official agencies that
would be

assigned to investigate, report, prosecute and so on.

The heads of all those government branches are linked to the principal
war merchants through their membership in such groups as the Council
on Foreign Relations. The CFR is a quasi-governmental private
organization formed in

1921 to formulate foreign policies that would forward "American
business interests" around the world, then persuade the government to
adopt those policies. Members include the heads of the NSC, CIA,
Departments of State, Defense, Treasury, Joint Chiefs, and Federal
Reserve, as well as the heads of all the largest banking, media,
energy and industrial conglomerates. Although containing the core of
the executive branch, they aren't answerable to any government agency,
and their actions are designed to further their own interests, not
America's.

The point is, their control is complete enough to defuse any standard
legal corrective actions, or any other traditional methods of
dethroning a corrupt power. A violent uprising would be disastrous and
provide just the right excuse for massive retaliations, roundup of
dissidents and suspension of

civil rights. Forget the usual revolutionary strategies, they've got
all that stuff covered.

In fact, no corrective approach will work that is based on anger,
punishment, revenge, or destruction. So what's left?

Let's try talking our way out of it. Instead of trying to seize
control from those now holding it, let's come up with an arrangement
where they use their power to straighten this whole mess out, and sell
them on it.

It could be that under the great pressures of inter-corporate
struggles and secrecy, none of them ever stopped to realize they had
another choice than the one they're committed to. Going into
crash-production on the whole system of perviously suppressed or
ignored technology could eliminate the harmful effects of "too many
people" without having to eliminate any more people, and still improve
life for them personally. Plus they would get to be heroes instead of
creeps.

They can even take credit for the idea. If we think up a better deal
for them than what they're currently going for, in terms of safety,
freedom and happiness, it could persuade them that maybe the rest of
us aren't too stupid to live after all. If we can't, then maybe we
are.

Perhaps we can directly renegotiate our collective future, once the
true situation has been publicized broadly enough to be no longer
officially deniable. Strike an agreement of mutual non-retaliation
between both sides while long-range transition logistics are worked
out.

We forgive them and their employees for past atrocities, and for being
so greedy, cold-blooded and ruthless. They forgive us for exposing and
ruining their plans, and for being so infernally lame, gullible and
numerous that exploiting and repressing us has been irresistable.

With enough citizens cooperating in the amnesty, we can guarantee the
super-rich and their palaces remain safe from lycnh mobs and looters.
In exchange they arrange for: 1) a global ceasefire and release of all
political prisoners (they have the power to do that), 2) full
disclosure of all "state secrets" (in other words, full confessions),
and 3) the diversion of the wealth currently spent on plan A (advanced
covert genocide technologies, operations and coverups) over to plan B
(crash program to implement previously suppressed technologies and
improve conditions for all). It might be worth it to them, not having
to constantly be on guard against their victimized public, and each
other. People do enjoy life more when they don't have to lie and worry
about getting caught all the time.

In other words, let's acknowledge that they've won the game they've
been playing, where the goal was to concentrate control of the world
into as few hands as possible, by any means available. The surviving
multibillionaires could go on battling and absorbing each others'
empires, but why beat it into the ground? They've thoroughly proved
they can plunder the planet and get away with it, so enough already.
Let the winners and losers shake hands and start a new game with more
interesting goals, that we can all pursue together.

AIDS, CANCER CURED BY HYPER-OXYGENATION

(Waves Forest) Several dozen AIDS patients have not only reversed
their death sentences, but are now back at work, completely free of
the disease.

They destroyed the virus in their blood by hyper-oxygenation, known in
various forms as oxygen therapy, bio-oxidative therapy or
auto-hemotherapy. This is a simple, inexpensive and very
broad-spectrum healing process that many feel could force a complete
overhaul of the medical industry. The two basic types of oxygen
therapy are ozone blood infusion, and absorption of oxygen water
(hydrogen peroxide) at very low concentrations.

It turns out that the AIDS virus cannot tolerate high oxygen levels in
its victims' blood. Not only that, every other disease organism tested
so far apparently has the same weakness. Even cancer growths contract
and disappear when the oxygen saturation is sufficiently increased in
the fluids

surrounding them, since they are anaerobic.

AIDS, herpes, hepatitis, Epstein Barr, cytomegalovirus and other
lipid-envelope viruses are readily destroyed by hyper-oxygenating the
patient's blood with ozone. This was demonstrated by among others Dr
Horst Kief in Bad Hersfeld, West Germany. Dr Kief has already cured a
number of AIDS victims by drawing blood, infusing it with ozone and
returning it to the patient, at regular intervals until all the virus
is gone. (He can be reached through Biozon Ozon-Technik GmbH, An Der
Haune #10, Bad Hersfeld, D-6430, Federal Republic of Germany.) Dr S.
Rilling of Stuttgart and Dr Renate Viebahn of Iffezheim are among the
growing number of physicians who have obtained

similar results with their patients. They are with Arztlich
Gesellschaft fur Ozontherapie and JrJ Hansler GmbH, respectively.

THE BASIS OF BIO-OXIDATIVE THERAPIES

For many years the health sciences have been seeking to identify the
primary physical cause of all diseases, and the cure-all that this
basic principle would yield. Now noth have been found, but their utter
simplicity makes them difficult to accept at first, since it seems
like if it's that easy, we should have been using them all along.

Our bodies are composed mostly of water, which is eight ninths oxygen.
Most nutritional studies tend to get caught up in the small details of
biochemistry and overlook our most abundant and essential element, and
the fundamental role of its depletion in causing illness. Of all the
elements the body needs, only oxugen is in such constant demand that
its absence brings death in minutes.

The main difference, for healing purposes, between benign
micro-organisms (including our own cells), and those which cause
disease, is that the latter require much lower oxygen levels. This is
due to their more primitive evolutionary origins, during the ages when
free oxygen was  far less abundant.

Now their descendants can only survive in low-oxygen environments such
as accompany stagnation and decay. To become a growth medium for such
parasites, one has to have allowed the oxygen saturation of the body's
fluids to drop well below the loptimum level for healthy cell growth
and function.

The simplest substances available for restoring one's oxygen balance
to a healthy range are ozone (O3), and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), which
is much easier to obtain and use. These are both highly toxic when
concentrated, which has tended to obscure their germicidal value
except as a skin antiseptic. But when diluted to therapeutic levels
(for H2O2, 1/2 of 1% or less), they are not only non-toxic but
uniquely beneficial.

OZONE BLOOD TREATMENT

Ozone overcomes the AIDS virus by a fundamentally different process
than usually attempted with drugs. Instead of burdening the liver and
immune system with more elaborate toxic substances, ozone simply
oxidizes the molecules in the shell of the virus.

The treatment is remarkably simple. The ozone is produced by forcing
oxygen through a metal tube carrying a 300-volt charge. A pint of
blood is drawn from the patient and placed in an infusion bottle. The
ozone is then forced into the bottle and mixed in by shaking gently,
whereupon the blood turns bright cardinal red. As the ozone molecules
dissolve into the blood they give up their third oxygen atom,
releasing considerable energy which destroys all lipid-envelope virus,
and apparently most other disease organisms as well, while leaving
blood cells unharmed.

It also oxygenates the blood to a greater degree than is usually
reached, what with poor air and sluggish breathing habits. The treated
blood is then given back to the patient. This treatment is given from
twice a week to twice a day, depending on how advanced the disease is.
The strengthened blood confers some of its virucidal properties to the
rest of the patient's blood as it disperses.

The disease will not return, as long as the patient maintains his
blood in an oxygen-positive state, throug proper breathing, exercise,
and clean diet.

A Dr Preuss, in Stuttgart, has written up ten case histories of AIDS
patients he has cured by this method. But his and the other
physicians' reports of cures are all anecdotal rather than in the form
of "controlled studies", since they could not be expected to treat
some patients and deny treatment to others just for the purpose of
accumulating evidence. Thus their results are not considered "proof"
by the US medical community. So the Medizone Company in New York has
taken on the task of doing the controlled studies required for the
treatment to be approved in the US for general use.

MEDIZONE TESTING OZONE BLOOD TREATMENT

In the summer of 1986 Medizone obtained from the FDA an IND
(Investigative New Drug) Approval for ozone, which falls under the
heading of drugs even though it isn't. They verified that ozone
destroys the AIDS virus in vitro, and completed their animal tests in
the fall of 1986. The tests demonstrated no indication of toxicity, at
ten times the equivalent amount that is

proposd for human treatment.

The Medizone Co is at 123 E 54th St, Ste 2B, NY, NY 10022; phone is
212-421-0303.

Medizone says it has obtained the rights to US Patent # 4,632,980, on
"ozonation of blood and blood products", from the company
"Immunologics", in exchange for Medizone stock shares. The patent
pertains specifically to inactivating lipid-envelope virus. In humans,
this includes AIDS, herpes, hepatitis, Epstein Barr virus, and
cytomegalovirus, among others. Medizone obtained tentative FDA
approval in April 1987 to begin human testing, but for a variety of
"bureaucratic reasons" the FDA has postponed the actual start of the
tests eight times now, with requests for further data, some of which
had already been given to them.

Twenty months have now passed [as of December 1988], along with
several thousand AIDS victims, since the first announced starting date
was postponed.

The Medizone staff is hoping to finally begin in the spring of 1989,
but are no longer announcing expected starting dates with much
confidence. "There are no technical problems, but this is the FDA
we're dealing with, after all." As the Company's future hangs on their
decision, no one at Medizone wants to risk anatgonizing the FDA, by
speculating about their actual motives for stalling such a
broad-spectrum cure.

All this has been with virtually no publicity. The official reason for
this is that the accepted procedure for publishing medical
breakthroughs is to complete all the tests first, even though victims
may die waiting for the cautious, methodical testing procedure to run
its course. No one in the industry wants to raise false hopes, let
alone repeat the medical disasters that ahve resulted in the past,
from rushing approval on new treatments.

On the other hand, the enormously expensive and dubiously effective
drug AZT was widely publicized many months before it was approved in
the US, as is ongoing research into possible AIDS vaccines. In fact,
FDA Commissioner Frank Young has even announced a proposal to make
experimental drugs available to AIDS victims as swiftly as possible,
without waiting for the full FDA approval procedure to be completed.
So there appears to be a severe double standard involved here. It
seems that highly profitable "treatments" with serious side effects
can be demonstrated in Europe, with minimal cost and no apparent
harmful effects, must be delayed and kept quiet while panic and deaths
mount.

Surely at this stage the benefits of unauthorized publicity will
outweigh the risks.

SAFE PURIFICATION OF BLOOD FOR TRANSFUSIONS

Ozone infusion also provides a simple method of purifying stored blood
and blood components, eliminating any possibility of disease being
transmitted by transfusion. It also pre-oxygenates blood to be
transfused, greatly reducing the burden on the body receiving the
blood.

This application alone, of the Medizone process has enormous profit
potential, and the treatment will have vast international demand as
the news spreads. This has not gone unnoticed by various investment
analysts.

"Confidential: Report from Zurich", "Penny Stock Insider" and
"Low-Priced Stock Edition", among others, are urging their readers to
get in on Medizone now, comparing the opportunity to getting in on
Xerox, IBM or Polaroid while they were still unknown.

Various physicians have independently discovered ozone to be also
effective against cancer, leukemia, arthritis, coronary heart disease,
arterial circulation disorders, colitis, gum diseases, and assorted
childrens' diseases. Some of these findings have now been collected
and published in the volume, "Medical Applications of Ozone",
available from the International Ozone Association, 83 Oakwood
Terrace, Norwalk, CT 06850.

Some of the medical uses of ozone have been appreciated for years in
Europe, Brazil and elsewhere, as well as its advantages over chlorine
for water treatment (no toxic residues, 5000 times more rapid
disinfection) but it's still relatively unknown in the US.

OXYGEN WATER

A much simpler type of Oxygen Therapy uses hydrogen peroxide (H2O2),
which is what ozone (O3) forms on contact with water. It can be taken
orally if diluted with water to 1/200 or less, absorbed through the
skin by bathing in it (anywhere from 1-8 pints of 3% H2O2 in a
standard size bathtub half full), or in severe cases it can be injcted
(250 cc of .075% to .15%, or roughly 1/1300 to 1/650). Injections
obviously require a physician's assistance, but self-treatment is
possible with oral and skin applications.

The principle is the same as with ozone blood treatment. All hostile
micro-organisms prefer lower oxygen levels than the body's cells
require to remain healthy. Boosting the oxygen level revitalizes
normal cells while killing virus and other pathogens.

The domestic sales of hydrogen peroxide are rising at 15% per year, as
the news of this option spreads at the grassroots level. The rapid
expansion of the peroxide movement is especially remarkable
considering there has been almost no media coverage, and in fact the
FDA, American Cancer Society and other enforcers of established
medicine have tried hard to discourage the practice.

Hydrogen peroxide is the only germicidal agent composed onl y of water
and oxygen. Like ozone, it kills disease organisms by oxidation as it
spreads through the patient's tissues.

This also destroys cancerous growths which are anaerobic. Nobel
Prize-winner Dr Otto Warburg demonstrated over fifty years ago the
basic difference between normal cells and cancer cells. Both derive
energy from glucose, but the normal cell requires oxygen to combine
with the glucose, while cancer cells break down glucose without
oxygen, yielding only 1/15 the energy per glucose molecule that a
normal cell produces. This is why cancer cells have such a huge
appetite for sugar, and also why people who consume excessive
quantities of sugar tend to get cancer more often.

The anaerobic breakdown of glucose by cancer cells forms large amounts
of lactic acid as a waste product, the same substance formed by
fermentation of lactose, as in spoiled milk. The liver converts some
of this back into lactose, in an attempt to salvage a food source from
a toxic waste. In doing this the liver uses only 1/5 the energy per
glucose molecule that a normal cell can then derive from it, but
that's three times the energy a cancer cell will get from it. The more
the weak, deranged cancer cells multiply, the more energy is lost to
the normal cells. Thus we find that low levels of both oxygen and
energy tend to occur where cancer is present, and vice versa. This
wasteful metabolism becomes self-sustaining and dominant unless the
oxygen and/or energy levels are sharply increased, or the cancer's
food source eliminated.

HEART TRANSPLANT PIONEER RECOMMENDS OXYGEN WATER

Dr Christiaan Barnard, who performed the first heart transplant, said
in March 1986 that he was taking peroxide and water himself, several
times daily to reduce arthritis and aging, and he recommended it
highly at that time.

Since then he has come under heavy attack by the medical establishment
for this position, and now states that he "is not involved" with the
peroxide movement. But he does not retract his original endorsement,
nor deny that he still uses it personally.

Over a hundred physicians are already curing a broad assortment of
"incurables" with this natural anti-microbial agent. This includes
some forty or more in the US. A principal liaison to these
free-thinking physicians is

Dr Charles H. Farr, who wrote "The Therapeutic Use of Intravenous
Hydrogen Peroxide". He directs the International Bio-Oxidative
Medicine Foundation,

and publishes the "IBOM Newsletter" which contains procedural updates
and technical refinements for physicians using intravenous H2O2
therapy on their patients. By classifying the treatments as
experimental they can get around the FDA's archaic restrictions for
now, until massive public demand and/or media exposure force official
approval.

Dr Farr summarizes the beneficial effects of H2O2 in "IBOM" issue #2:
these include killing bacteria, protozoa, yeast, and virus, oxidizing
lipids from arterial walls, increasing oxygen tension intracellularly,
stimulating oxidative enzymes, returning elasticity to arterial walls,
dilating coronary vessels, and regulating membrane transport. IBOM is
at PO Box 61767, Dallas/ Ft. Worth, TX 75261; 817-481-9772. Dr Farr is
at 11330 North May Ave,

Oklahome City, OK 73120; 405-752-0070 and 799-8781.

H2O2 CAN BE SELF-ADMINISTERED

The oral and skin applications offer the option of home treatment, as
no blood needs to be drawn, and hydrogen peroxide is cheap and
plentiful. Keep

it diluted though; in high concentrations it can irritate sensitive
skin and induce vomiting when ingested. (Veterinarians routinely give
common 3% H2O2 to animals that have swallowed poison, to make them
throw it up.)

The starting dosage is one ounce of .5% (1/200) H2O2 in water, and
some will find they need to start with less. As the peroxide contacts
pathogens in the stomach it liberates free oxygen, so those with high
levels of virus and streptococcus in their stomachs may feel slight
nausea while the reaction is occuring. The dosage is increased by an
ounce per day, up to five ounces on the fifth day, then up to five
ounces three times daily for a week (or until disease is no longer
present). Then the dosage is tapered back down over a five week
period.

Food-grade or Re-agent (these are 35%, dangerous if undiluted) is
better

for internal use, since the common USP 3% H2O2 contains small amounts
of chemical stabilizers and other impurities. It can still be used if
food-grade is unavailable; it just isn't as pure.

An alternate dosage regimen uses three drops of 35% H2O2 in a glass of
water, three times a day, which is then increased by a drop per dose,
per day, up to 25 drops per dose in extreme cases. Candidiasis victims
should start at one drop per dose, and build their tolerance
gradually. Some find the taste rather bleachy and unpleasant, and may
wish to chase it with plain water. It can also be mixed with fuit
juice, and citrus juices in particular cover the taste pretty well.

Adding seven drops of 35% H2O2 to a gallon of drinking water and
shaking well purifies it and gives it a pleasant waterfall-like
flavor.

For more dosage details and extensive references on H2O2 taken
internationally, contact Walter Grotz, Box 126, Delano, MN 55328;
612-972-2144. His progress report, "ECHO", costs $1. He provided much
of the material regarding H2O2 in this article. Another source is
Father Richard Wilhelm, Box 18, Union Rd., California, KY 41007;
606-635-9297. These gentlemen have continued the research initiated by
Dr Edward Carl Rosenow (1875-1966). They have located over 4000
peer-reviewed medical articles on the applications of hypdrogen
peroxide, some dating back to the 1800's. They received the National
Health Federation's Pioneer Award in Medicine this year, for this
ongoing research. Walter Grotz, in particular, has been touring and
lecturing extensively on the benefits of self-administered H2O2,
literally saving lives wherever he goes, and bringing hope to people
who had been told their cases were hopeless.

Dr Kurt W. Donsbach at the Bio-Genesis Institute in Rosarita Beach,
Baja Mexico (714-964-1535), has achieved a remision rate exceeding
70%, in over

300 patients at last count, most of whom had been previously told they
were beyond hope, and had "tried everything else". Bio-oxidative
therapies are now applied to all cases that arrive at this clinic, and
all respond except for some of those who arrive already very close to
death. The Guadalajara Medical School, Mexico's largest, is initiating
their own tests this summer, and will add it to their curriculum upon
verification.

As Dr Donsbach has pointed out, no US clinic or institution has ever
tested intravenous H2O2 as a treatment for cancer, so any claim that
it is not effective is not based on clinical trial, and amounts to
wilful disinformation.

The Gerson Institute and La Gloria Clinic in Mexico are also using
Hydrogen peroxide therapies on their patients, after the staff tested
it on themselves and found it to be beneficial.

HYDROGEN PEROXIDE IN NATURE

Hydrogen peroxide occurs naturally in rain and snow, from atmospheric
ozone, and in mountain streams where rushing water is continuously
separated. Most of us learned at an early age to drink from a stream
only where the water's running white, because that's where it gets
cleansed of germs. The reason is that H2O2 is forming there due to the
water's rapid agitation, and that's what kills any harmful mcirobes
present.

By just shaking a bottle of water vigorously for a while you can tuck
enough extra oxygen into it to form detectable amounts of H2O2,
improving its purity, flavor and vitality.

It turns out that the soring waters at Lourdes, France, long
recognized for their remarkable healing properties, are very high in
natural hydrogen peroxide. The spring is fed by high-altitude
snowmelt, so the snow apparently absorbs unusually large quantities of
ozone on its way from the upper atmosphere. Other less-known high
altitude springs are saidto be likewise effective.

Similar benefits can be obtained in a swimming pool or hot tub, by
discarding the chlorination system and simply puring in H2O2, or by
bubbling ozone throug h the water. One simple method of making
pool-grade ozone is to pump air past an enclosed ultra-violet lamp.

Raw, uncooked vegetables and fruits contain natural hydrogen peroxide.

Cooking drives off the extra oxygen. Fresh fruit juices are well known
for their blood-cleansing and revitalizing capabiltiies, particularly
when they are not combined with other foods; this is largely due to
the H2O2 they contain. Reconstituted frozen juices have much less, and
are no longer "alive", thus they are not nearly as effective.

H2O2 IS HEART OF IMMUNE SYSTEM

Mother's milk contains a high amount of H2O2, especially colostrum,
the first milk secreted after birth, which activates the newborn's
immune system.

H2O2 is the first line of the body's defense systems, and key to many
other metabolic processes.

Under conditions of optimum health, H2O2 is produced by the body's
immune system in whatever amounts are needed to quickly destroy any
invading hostile organisms. It is made by combining water in the body
with the free oxygen that is supposed to be constantly available. When
the body is oxygen-starved, it can't produce enough H2O2 to wipe out
invading pathogens, which can then get the upper hand and cause
visible disease.

OXYGEN BOOST IS KEY TO OTHER HEALING METHODS

When penicillin is effective against infection, it is largely due to
the formation of bactericidal amounts of H2O2, when glucose is
oxidized by O2 in the presence of penicillin notatin. (General
Biochemistry, Fruton & Simmonds 577.1 F944 p. 339)

Much has been made of the healing properties of Interferon, but it is
unbelievably expensive. However, much of its effectiveness is
apparently due to the fact that it stimulates production of H2O2 and
other oxygen intermediates, which are a key factor in reactivating the
immune system.

(Journal of Interferon Research Vol 3, #2, 1983 p 143-151.) Thus
Interferon may turn out to be simply a very elaborate way to
accomplish essentially the same thing as the H2O2 regimen.

Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) has long been recognized as essential to the
proper use of oxygen by the cells. Dr Linus Pauling has demonstrated
that large doses of vitamin C are effective against cancer. The
mainstream medical community still has not acknowledged this
discovery, let alone put it to use, despite Dr Pauling's previous
credentials. As it turns out, vitamin C actually creates extra H2O2 in
the body.

Organic Germanium (bis-carboxyethyl germanium sesquioxide) is gaining
increasing recognition as a potent healing substance, primarily
through the work of Dr Kazuhiko Asai. This compound directly increases
the body's oxygen supply, as it contains a great deal of oxygen in a
form that can be easily assimilated. (See "Miracle Cure: Organic
Germanium" by Dr Asai, Japan Publications, Inc., Tokyo and New York.)

Taheebo (aka Pau D'Arco or Lapacho Colorado) is a tree that grows in
the Andes and fixes high concentrations of oxygen in crystalline form
into its inner bark. The bark has been used for centuries by the
native peoples of the area to prevent and revesre illnesses, and it is
onre reason why they do not get cancer. In recent years it has become
popular in the US, and it gets by the FDA as an "herbal tea" whose
distributors wisely make no medical claims for it. Again, much of its
effectiveness is apparently due to its high oxygen content, released
in solution when brewed as a tea.

CAUSES OF OXYGEN DEPLETION

There are several very common practices that drop a person's oxygen
level far below where it should ideally be. At sea level, 20% of the
atmosphere is supposed to be oxygen, but city air gets down as low as
10%, due to smog and removal of trees. Air that tastes bad induces a
tendency to breathe shallowly, getting even less oxygen in the blood.
So does lack of exercise.

The carbon monoxide (CO) in smog does not normally occur in nature in
much quantity since it's formed by incomplete combustion of carbon
compounds. It is electrically unbalanced, so it seeks to bond with any
available oxygen to

form the more stable carbon dioxide (CO2). Those who breathe too much
carbon monoxide tend to die, fast or slow depending on the
concentration. It strips oxygen molecules from the blood to form CO2,
which the body can't use and must exhale, at least until its oxygen
runs out. The fact that the body considers CO2 a waste product, by the
way, doesn't say much for carbonated beverages.

Tap water is very low in oxygen, having had no opportunity to be
aerated during its journey through the pipes, and being loaded down
with chlorine and various contaminants. Since cooking drives the extra
oxygen out of vegetables, if one's diet is mostly cooked or processed
foods, there's yet another oxygen source lost.

EATING, FASTING AND OXYGEN BALANCE

Overeating is so common in the US it's considered "normal". One cause
is the widespread use of oral antibiotics. While destroying the target
germs, these drugs also kill off one's intestinal flora, which are
needed for healthy digestion. With these friendly bacteria gone,
digestive efficiency plummets.

As a result, the sensation of hunger comes more often and lasts
longer, as

the body tries to compensate for ineffective digestion by increasing
the amounts consumed.

Even just eating daily, without ever giving the gastro-intestinal
tract a rest, loads down the blood with toxins and impurities,
especially uric acid crystals. Under a microscope these resemble tiny
coffin-lids, interestingly enough, another clue to our Creator's
whimsical sense of humor. When the waste products exceed the cleansing
capacity of the kidneys, the blood ends up just having to haul it
around the body and stash it wherever possible. These toxins literally
take up so much room in the blood cells that the cells can't take

on enough oxygen when they pass through the lungs. The blood's primary
function of picking up and distributing oxygen gets blocked by overuse
of the garbage-hauling function.

Fasting restors health by giving the overloaded blood cells a chance
to dump the toxins and inert matter through normal organs of
elimination at a rate they can handle, instead of through the skin, as
in acne, or other inappropriate places. If the fast is long enough,
accumulated residues in the body are also scoured out and expelled,
giving a considerable spiritual resurgence once all the backlog is
cleared away. While the debris is flushing out, various toxic
reactions may come and go. Once the blood is cleansed the red
corpuscles have a lot more room for oxygen molecules, the oxygen
saturation of the tissues is high, and health and energy are boosted
considerably. Each breath now gives more life than it was able to in
the blood's earlier state.

Most long-lived native peoples, who are not affected by our more
common diseases, either include fasting as a regular part of their
yearly food cycles, or eat much less overall, than industrialized
peoples.

Today many Americans are existing at such high levels of toxicity,
that their toxic reactions when attempting to fast can seem intense
enough to make them start eating again before any serious cleansing
can be accomplished.

Fortunately one can partially bypass the lungs and get the blood
oxygen level back up, by taking oxygenated water internally and
through the skin. Several weeks of detoxification with this regumen
will also make it much easier to fast without discomfort, if one
chooses. It reduces appetite, logically enough, to a level more in
line with the body's actual needs.

The bacteria that aid digestion are not killed by oral use of H2O2, as
long as it's diluted properly.

OXYWATER MAY EVEN CURE STUPIDITY

Perhaps the greatest potential benefit is the reversal of the slight
brain damage caused by long-term oxygen depletion, which can be
observed in the "average" human, and is sometimes not all that slight.
It's well known that after about nine minutes of no oxygen, from
drowning or whatever, you can

kiss your brain goodbye. But the implications of constant gradual
oxygen starvation in our cities somehow escape notice, despite the
tiredness, depression, irritability, poor judgement and health
problems affecting so many cit izens.

Increasing the oxygen supply to the brain and nervous system will
reverse these conditions. The oxywater regimen improves alertness,
reflexes, memory and apparently intelligence, and may offer the
elderly a new weapon against senility and related disorders.
Alzheimer's and Parkinson's are reported to

be responding to it. Alcoholics who start taking H2O2 soon lose
interest in alcohol, and the thirst does not come back. Americans
especially, will have

an opportunity to outgrow many stupid things.

It's strange that the common drug aspirin "stops pain" by interfering
with the nervous system's ability to sue oxygen, in the elctrochemical
reactions needed to transmit impulses. Though maybe it's not that
strange, considering that the Bayer Company which originated it was a
subsidiary of IG Farben, the German chemical conglomerate that is
famous for, among other things, developing and mass-producing the
lethal gas Zyklon-B specifically for exterminations at nazi death
camps.

ECONOMIC INERTIA

Dr Terry McGrath, the CEO at Medizone, confirmed that Hydrogen
peroxide would in principle act much like ozone in destroying the AIDS
virus, but pointed out that it's never likely to be tested and proven
in the laboratory.

There's simply no economic incentive, since it's an unpatentable
process and offers no more commercial returns than most other natural
remedies. So it's completely up to individual patients and concerned
citizens to push these options out into the open, immediately, before
various companies get too financially committed to the assumption that
AIDS (or any other disease) will continue to spread and be incurable.

This is good a place as any for the FDA-required disclaimer:
"Information given here is for research and educational purposes only
and is not intended to prescribe treatment."

VETERINARY AND AGRICULTURAL APPLICATIONS

Humans aren't the only life form that benefit from compensation for
their oxygen-deficient air, water and/or lifestyle. H2O2 in animals'
drinking water, not enough to taste unpleasant, knocks out a growing
list of illnesses.

Locally, cats have gotten rid of their feline leukemia and chlamydia,
and are back to theirmold energetic slapstick selves. Distemper in
dogs has been reversed with H2O2, and a growing number of farmers are
applying it to their livestock to cut losses from disease and infected
wounds.

Plants grow better with an ounce of 3% H2O2 per quart of water they're
given. Spray the solution on their leaves as well. Seeds germinate
faster, with bigger sprouts, when they are first soaked in one ounce
of 3% H2O2 to a pint of water. Instead of cutting trees that are
diseased or otherwise struggling, spray them with H2O2 and water (1
part 3% to 32 parts water).

WHY ISN'T THIS ALREADY IN USE?

The obvious question is, if hyper-oxygenation is so simple and
effective, why has it taken so long to discover it? Ozone is hardly
new and hydrogen peroxide has been on the market for over a century.
Why aren't all the doctors already using it? How come this story isn't
all over the major news outlets?

Turning the question around helps clarify the problem. Just exactly
what would happen if a cure was discovered that was completely
effective against the vast majority of diseases, ridiculously cheap
and plentiful, and in most cases could be self-administered without a
physician?

Would the current medical establishment welcome a breakthrough that
could render 98% of all drugs, testing and disease-related surgery
obsolete? What would the response be of the pharmaceutical
industrialists, hospital chain owners, health insurance moguls, AMA,
and FDA?

Would you expect to read or hear such an announcement from any medical
journal or media outlet owned by people financially committed to the
medical status quo, which is practically all of them? How many want to
help their own occupation become unnecessary?

And if the cure had already been suppressed once, wouldn't the
possible blame for allowing people to die without it provide even more
incentive to continue keeping the whole thing quiet?

All right then. This is precisely the situation that exists, and the
cure has indeed been around for ages. It has been independently
reported effective against virtually every disease at one time or
another, in thousands of public-domain medical articles, which had
never been collected and correlated until recently. And it is so
simple and basic that concealing it from most physicians and the
general public has required a tremendous smokescreen of artificial
complications, narrow specializations, symptomatic classifications and
user-hostile treatments.

If this is so, it follows that the more profit-fixated elements of the
medical establishment will not be too thrilled about the recent surge
in interest in oxygen therapies. The drug industry has expanded
enormously since WW II, while America's level of health has dropped
from the world's highest to the lowest among the industrialized
nations. It does look as if the bottom line has been money and not
health, for a long time.

The battle for the future of medicine, between Nature's truth and
lucrative lies, is about to really heat up. We can expect to see
disinformation articles and newscasts with persuasive medical experts,
some of whom will even believe what they're saying, warning of the
dangers of hydrogen peroxide, ozone, and even regular oxygen. These
reports will attempt to blur the distinction between using therapeutic
dosages at safe dilutions, and the harmful effects of excessive
concentrations. Plenty of grisly examples are available, of what
happens when various tissues are over-oxidized.

Anti-oxygenation propaganda pieces will probably not mention that over
the years the FDA has approved H2O2 as a skin antiseptic at full 3%
strength, as a hair bleaching agent at 6%, and for internal use as an
additiveto milk and in aspetic long-shelf-life packaging. Nor are they
likely to acknowledge that many European countries use ozone and H2O2
in their cities' water supply, and that they enjoy much better health
than in the US. And they will be unable to truthfully cite any
examples of people who were harmed by using H2O2 in the correct
demonstrated therapeutic concentrations.

If not enough public move quickly to help spread the news of this
alternative, those how fear it could reduce their economic power may
go so far as to try and knock off someone who promotes it, while
trying to make it look like "too much oxygen" is the cause. Also,
product tampering has thus far mostly targeted Bayer Aspirin's
competitors, in case you hadn't noticed, but drugstore hydrogen
peroxide would not be immune to such tactics. One approach might be to
plant a contaminated batch in a town where oral use of it is catching
on and the medical establishment is losing ground, so someone gets
hurt and the story gets nationwide coverage.

It is vital for Americans to realize that current economic dynamics
don't allow the businessmen in charge of the health industry any
incentive at all, to make people permanently healthy and lose them as
customers. It's the same reason why the energy conglomerates do not
encourage citizens to become energy-self-sufficient, the Pentagon has
no incentive to stop wars, and the American Psychiatric Association
sees no advantage to ending mental illness.

Fortunately the majority of physicians really do want to see their
patients get well. They also wouldn't mind regaining the respect and
admiration with which physicians were once more widely regarded. When
it comes down to a choice between saving lives and protecting profits,
most will be brave enough to overhaul their medical belief systems,
discard obsolete methodologies,

and basically tell the pharmacuetical conglomerates to go shove it.
The rest will simply get left behind.

SOURCES FOR FOOD-GRADE HYDROGEN PEROXIDE

Most pharmacists have never even heard of it, so it's usually a waste
of time to ask them. A number of chemical supply houses have 35% H2O2
available; check your local directories and call a few. Under FDA
pressure, DuPont and possibly other major chemical companies have
recently issued warnings to their dis tributors, not to sell hydrogen
peroxide to people who want it for healing purposes. So when you in
quire, if they ask what you want it for, it will unfortunately be
necessary to lie. If you say you want it as a cleaning agent, that's
at least pretty close to the truth.

Several physicians quietly sell itthrough the mail, bu they aren't the
same ones promoting its healing properties, for obvious FDA-related
reasons. A good source in California, though he can ship it anywhere,
is Dr A J McDonald, at PO Box 775, Lodi, CA 95240; 209-368-8681;
$12/pint.

Your best move would be to share this information with owners of
health-food stores in your area. Call and ask them if they have
food-grade H2O2 (some already do) and tell them why you want it and
how it works. Encourage them to carry it and give them Dr McDonald's
address if they don't seem inclined to track down a local source.

Cleanroom-grade 30% H2O2 (used for cleaning in computer rooms since it
is a powerful disinfectant and leaves no residue when it evaporates)
is reported to be just as pure as food-grade and much cheaper. Check
with labs that make "wafer fabrication" chemicals, or contact the
manufacturers of silicon chips and other computer parts, and the data
processing complexes that might use it in their cleanrooms, and ask
where they buy it. The more sources become known, the harder it will
be for anyone to make it unavailable.

GET THE WORD OUT

Write your elected officials, send copies of this information, and
point out what will happen to a politician whose constituents learn he
knew of a cure for cancer and AIDS but didn't tell them about it. Call
in on radio talk shows and share the good news, or send copies to
their reporters and program directors, especially at
listener-supported stations as these are less likely to suppress it.
Don't assume your local papers have already heard of this; write
letters to editors, and/or send copies of this report. Tack it up on
every bulletin board you see, and post it on all relevant computer
bulletin boards.

If you know teachers, physicians, or health officials who can still
think for themselves, tell them about this and give the references.
Notify your local police officials that hyper-oxygenation gives them a
way of maing sure they'll be safe from infection due to contact with
AIDS carriers. If you're really feeling bold, walk into the local
hospital's cancer wards and hand a copy of this report to anyone who
can still read, and slip out the back door before their doctors walk
in. Share it with anyone you know who has a health problem, even a
minor one; H2O2 apparently works on everything from acne to warts.

Above all, stop buying the idea that cancer, AIDS, and other
"terminal" illnesses are automatic death sentences. When you hear some
celebirty you like is sick or dying of this or that, look up their
mailing address in Who's Who or whatever, and mail them this
information. If the address is for an agent, which are notorious for
blocking attempted communications to their client,

you might include a cover letter to the agent, stating that the
enclosed vital news is also being sent to their client's family
members, and if he or she learns through them that there was
life-saving information sent but held up

at the agent's, that agent will be out of a job. Act like you have the
clout it takes to make a difference, and you soon will.

Major scientific breakthroughs go through three stages: first they are
ridiculed, then violently opposed, and finally they are accepted as
having been self-evident all along. Let's see if we can short-cut
those first two stages a bit, OK?

DESIGNER DISEASES: AIDS AS BIOLOGICAL AND PSYCHOLOGICAL WARFARE

It is hard to imagine that a cure for AIDS would be withheld for
economic reasons alone. Could there be some other motive?

Despite repeated denials from Defense Department officials,
allegations persist that AIDS is a genetically altered virus, which
has been deliberately released to wipe out homosexuals and/or
non-whites in the US and reduce populations in third world countries.

At first glance it seems like the epitome of paranoia to accuse the
military of conspiring to exterminate citizens of their own country,
and even some of their own troops. However, the vast majority of
military personnel could be completely unaware of such a plot in their
midst, while a relative handful of traitors in key positions could
conduct it under cover of classified operations. And the
circumstantial eivdence is actually quite compelling, that the AIDS
virus was artificially engineered, and planted in several different
locations at about the same time through vaccination programs, and
possibly blood bank contaminations.

At a House Appropriations hearing in 1969, the Defense Department's
Biological Warfare (BW) division requested funds to develop through
gene-splicing a new disease that would both resist and break down a
victim's immune system. "Within the next 5 to 10 years it would
probably be possible to make a new infective micro-organism which
could differ in certain important respects from any known
disease-causing organisms. Most important of these is that it might be
refractory to the immunological and therapeutic processes upon which
we depend to maintain our relative freedom from infectious disease."
(See "A Higher Form of Killing: The Secret Story of Chemical and
Biological Warfare" by R. Harris and J. Paxman, p 266, Hill and Wang,
pubs.) The funds were approved.

AIDS appeared within the requested time frame, and has the exact
characteristics specified.

In 1972 the World Health Organization published a similar proposal:
"An attempt should be made to ascertain whether viruses can in fact
exert selective effects on immune function, e.g. by...affecting T cell
function as opposed to B cell function. The possibility should also be
looked into that the immune response to the virus itself may be
impaired if the infecting

virus damages more or less selectively the cells responding to the
viral antigens." (Bulletin of the W.H.O., vol 47, p 257-74.) This is a
clinical description of the function of the AIDS virus.

The incidence of AIDS infections in Africa coincides exactly with the
locations of the massive W.H.O. smallpox vaccination program in the
mid-1970's (London Times, May 11, 1987). Some 14,000 Haitians then on
UN secondment to Central Africa were also vaccinated in this campaign.
Personnel actually conducting the vaccinations may have been
completely unaware that the vaccine was anything other than what they
were told.

A striking feature of AIDS is that it is ethno-selective. The rate of
infection is twice as high among Blacks, Latinos and Native Americans
as among whites, with death coming two to three times as swiftly. And
over 80% of the children with AIDS and 90% of infants born with it are
among these minorities.

"Ethnic weapons" that would strike certain racial groups more heavily
than others have been a long-standing US Army BW objective. (Harris
and Paxman,

p 265)

Under the current US administration biological warfare research
spending has increased 500 percent, primarily in the area of genetic
engineering of new disease organisms.

The "discovery" of the AIDS virus (HTLV3) was announced by Dr Robert
Gallo at the National Cancer Institute, which is on the grounds of
Fort Derrick, Maryland, a primary US biological warfare research
facility. Actually the AIDS virus looks and acts much more like a
cross between a bovine leukemia virus and a sheep visna (brain-rot)
virus, cultured in ahuman cell culture, than any virus of the HTLV
group.

The closest thing in this case to a "smoking test tube" so far is the
AIDS virus itself. If it was possible for such a monstrosity to occur
naturally it would have done so ages ago and decimated mankind at that
time. Some other life form would presently be in control of this
planet (assuming that is not already the case).

The Hepatitis B vaccine study in 1978 appears to have beenthe initial
means of planting the infection in New York City. The test protocol
specified non-monogamous males only, and homosexuals received a
different vaccine from heterosexuals. At l east 25-50% of the first
reported NY AIDS cases in 1981

had received the Hepatitis B test vaccine in '78. By 1984, 64% of the
vaccine recipients had AIDS, and the figures on the current infection
rate for the participants of that study are held by the US Department
of Justice, and "unavailable".

The AIDS epidemic emerged full-blown in the three US cities with
"organized gay communities" before being reported elsewhere, including
Haiti or Africa, so it is epidemiologically impossible for either of
those countries to be the origin point for the US infections.

Another indication AIDS had multiple origin points is that the
14-month doubling time of the disease cannot nearly account for the
current number of cases if we assume only a small number of initial
infections starting in the late 1970s.

Before dismissing the possibility that a US Army BW facility would
participate in genocide, bear in mind that hundreds of top nazis were
imported into key positions in the US military-intelligence
establishment following

WW II. US military priorities were then defeating nazis to "defeating"
communism at any cost, and strengthening military control of economic
and foreign policy decisions. (See "Project Paperclip" by Clarence
Lasby, Atheneum 214, NY, and "Gehlen: Spy of the Century" by E H
Cookridge, Random House.) There's no proof those nazis ever gave up
their long-term goals of conquest and genocide, just because they
changed countries. Fascism was and is an international phenomenon.

It's not as this was a total reversal of previous US military policy,
however. Hitler claimed to have gotten his inspiration for the "final
solution" from the extermination of Native Americans in the US. For
that matter the first example of germ warfare in the US was in 1763
when some of the European colonists gave friendly Indians a number of
blankets that had been infected with smallpox, causing many deaths.

One indication of the actual US military priorities regarding BW was
the importation of the entire Japanese germ warfare unit (#731)
following WW II.

These people killed over 3000 POWs, including many Americans, in a
variety of grisly experiments, yet they were granted complete amnesty
and given American military positions in exchange for sharing their
research findings with their US Army counterparts.

Consider also the callous attitude displayed by top military officials
toward veterans suffering from the aftereffects of exposure to Agent
Orange and radiation from nuclear weapons tests.

In fact, since the end of WW II over 200 experimental BW tests have
been conducted on civilians and military personnel in the US. One
example was the test spraying from Sept 20-26, 1950 of bacillus
globigi and syraceus maracezens over 117 square miles of the San
Francisco area, vausing pneumonia-like infections in many of the
residents. The family of one elderly man who died in the test sued the
government, but lost. To this day syraceus is a leading cause of death
among the elderly in the SF area. Another case was the joint Army/CIA
BW test in 1955, still classified, in which an undisclosed bacteria
was released in the Tampa Bay region of Florida, causing a dramatic
increase in whooping cough infections, including twelve deaths. A
third example was the July 7-10, 1966 release of bacteria throughout
the New York subway system, conducted by the US Army's Special
Operations Division. Due to the vast number of people exposed it would
be virtually impossible to identify, let alone prove, any specific
health problems resulting directly from this test.

So despite the loyalty of the vast majority of US military personnel
toward their country, there are clearly some military officials who
have very different intentions, and they occupy high wnough positions
to impose their priorities on military programs and get away with it,
so far.

The first detailed charges regarding AIDS as a BW weapon were
published in the "Patriot" newspaper in New Delhi, India, on July 4,
1984. It is hard to say where the investigations of this story in the
Indian press might have led, if they had not been sidetracked by two
major domestic disasters shortly thereafter: the assassination of
Indira Gandhi on Oct 31 and the Bhopal Union Carbide Plant "accident"
that killed several thousand and injured over 200,000 on Dec 3.

The Soviet press picked up the story in October 1985, making it easy
for US Defense Department spokesmen to dismiss the charges as "Soviet
propaganda", even though many other countries carried it. The Soviets
recently retracted the charges, in the new spirit of US-USSR
cooperation.

A variation on the AIDS-BW theory that is popular in far-right
publications is that AIDS was developed in Soviet laboratories for use
against the US. An obvious problem with this idea is that the victims
of choice of a Soviet BW attack would be anti-communists, not
minorities or homosexuals, who are generally more left-wing. The
people at greatest risk from AIDS in the US are in fact the very
elements most disliked by arch-conservatives. In any case it is
simplistic to assume that one country, US or USSR, is conducting this
campaign against the other. Although concealed in apparent conflicts
between nations, the real culprits are multi-national fascists on both
"sides" still bent on massive population reductions and global
domination.

Other motives include the old "divide and conquer" principle; AIDS is
inspiring fear and mistrust between people, and scaring them away from
relating to each other at the basic level of sexuality. It is acting
as a barrier to the attempted cultural resurgence toward peace, love
and cooperation. Of high school students surveyed last year as to
which decade they'd most like to have grown up in, 90% chose the 60's.
The last thing pro-war fascists want is another "love generation",
especially if it is more politically sophisticated than the last one.

Apparently homosexuals were an initial target in the US because their
sexual practices would help in the rapid spread of the disease, and
because it was correctly assumed that very few non-homosexual citizens
would pay much attention during the early years of the epidemic. Also
the stigma of a "homosexual disease" would interfere with rational
analysis and discussion of AIDS. Bear in mind that homosexuals were
among the first to be exterminated in Nazi Germany, before Jews or
other minorities, so fewer citizens would object.

The details of precisely how the AIDS virus was synthesized, mass
cultured, and spread  by incorporating it into vaccination programs are
available but fairly intrictae. It is beyond the scope of this report
to present a crash course in virology, epidemiology, genetic
engineering, and the military strategies of international fascism.
Readers are encouraged to obtain and study the references cited here,
and demand a full inquiry. Those officials who are actually involved
in the coverup will reveal it by their inaction

when pressed to investigate.

Evil is hard to confront, especially on the preposterous scale we have
here.

If you acknowledge the presence of those who think their only hope for
survival of their kind is to kill off two thirds of all the other
kinds, and their ability to manage it, you then pretty much have to do
something about it.

WHY WAR

The vast majority of humans desire peace and cooperation, so why are
there curently 43 wars arging around the globe?

To find what or who is responsible for a problem that persists and
gets worse no matter how hard you work at correcting what you think is
the cause, look to see who benefits from the continuation of the
problem.

The beneficiaries of war are: 1) the owners of the companies that
manufacture and sell all kinds of weapons systems, 2) the owners of
the giant banks that loan money to governments to cov er the deficits
created by defense spending, who can then use the billions in interest
payments to get their own people elected and influence government
spending policy toward still greater debts, and 3) the heads of
governments who have so thoroughly cheated and mistreated their
citizens that only wars with outside enemies, genuine or artificial,
will distract the people from recognizing and revolting against the
real enemy in their own government. Hence, the symbiosis of U.S. and
Soviet military-industrial-intelligence establishments.

Imagine that you're in the big-time weapons business. Your profits
depend on increasing the world-wide demand for weapons. So you
re-invest profits and/or government funds to "stimulate the market".
Hire "ex-"CIA or other clever mercenaries to stir up or intensify
foreign and domestic hostilities.

Overhtrow popular leaders and replace them with fascists, who need
tons of weapons just to keep their own outraged citizens subdued.
Don't think about the natives your merchandise ruins. Peace movements
are costly and must be infiltrated and sidetracked, and their mjore
effective leaders assassinated.

The owners of the major news services are tightly connected with the

defense and banking giants, through interlinked corporate directorates
and membership in the Council on Foreign Relations. So if you get all
your news and information from AP, UPI, NBC, ABC, CBS and the other
established media owned by the same interconnected pro-war corpocracy,
of course you'll remain totally baffled by the
treason-disguised-as-bungling that dominates the news.

Don't expect those sources to expose any deeper layers of the cover-up
of illegal weapons deals than are needed to ease out the Reagan team
and install a different batch of front-men to continue the same
policies (if Americans allow it). Just like after Watergate.

Only millionaires can get their own friends appointed to "investigate"
them when they are accused of criminal acts. Senator John Tower,
assigned to "get at the truth" in the Iran-Contra affair, is a
long-time ally of key weapons industrialists. He's even married to the
sister of Interarms president Sam Cummings, the world's largest
private arms merchant.

If you're really serious about wanting peace on earth, you must first
learn the identities, motives and plans of the people who profit from
the creation of wars amd the arming of the combatants. Do you really
expect men of great wealth and power and no compassion to end on their
own such a profitable enterprise? They have no incentive to stop
production of weapons and torture equipment as long as their agents
are allowed to stimulate markets for such things, by creating and
funding supposedly leftist terrorist groups, and overthrowing
legitimate third-world governments to install fascists.

The federal deficit is constantly referred to in mass media without
ever acknowledging why it really exists. The world's largest banks
derive their largest profits from the interest payments on loans made
to governments. Only governments borrow billions at a time, and they
only do that to cover budgets bloated with massive "defense spending".
Thus, the top bankers have a vested interest in maintaining the
appearance of a threat of imminent war. The very men who collect the
yearly billions in interest payments on the national debt are then
able with such resources to make sure the government policies calling
for deficit spending continue.

To understand the direction the world has taken since World War II,
one must recognize the full implications of these facts: throughout
the war, the Nazis had tremendous financial and material support from
such U.S. corporations as Ford, ITT, Standard Oil and Chase Bank. The
Nazi goal of world conquest, enslavement and population reduction
appealed just as strongly to powerful American fascists, and still do.
Only a few dozen Nazi officers were ever tried for war crimes.
Literally thousands of other important Nazi personnel simply moved
their base of opeartions to the U.S., South America, the Middle East
and elsewhere. Under the guidance of Martin Bormann, they also removed
from Germany all the acpital they'd accumulated (over $370 million),
and used it to form some 750 foreign corporations officially headed by
local nationals, but with German expatriates as the principal
shareholders. These companies, reinvesting "from abroad" in Germany's
industrial reconstruction, are responsible for its rapid recovery and
current economic strength. They also are tightly interconnected with
their American counterparts, and include some of today's biggest
multinationals. The loyalties of the Nazis who went underground
remained with the Third Reich and its long-range goals. And the Nazi's
niggest enemy, our war-time ally the Soviet Union, suddenly became
"our" enemy. Only these two superpowers were big enough to provide a
believable threat to each other, to justify continuing to maintain
large-scale military forces and industries in both countries.

The governemnt checks and balances provided in the U.S. Constitution
were completely sidestepped by the formation of the C.I.A. in the
Executive Branch immediately following World War II and stomped into
the ground as more such agencies were added (NSC, DIA, DISC< DARPA,
FEMA, etc.). Few citizens are aware yet that the CIA was created by
Nazi general Reinhard Gehlen, Hitler's chief of intelligence against
the Russians. Gehlen was brought over to the U.S. right after the war
with his entire staff, and given 200 million dollars to continue the
job for "our side". At the same time, hundreds of other top Nais were
imported (this was called "Project Paperclip") and given new
identities and government positions. They formed the core of the new
U.S.

intelligence, defense, and aerospace establishments. Why do you
suppose every CIA-engineered coup installs a Nazi-like dictatorship
that suppresses, tortures and murders the native populations?

The first thing new intelligence agents are taught is to lie
convincingly.

With the intelligence/defense establishment in almost total control
over the U.S. government, naturally we now have an actor in the White
House. Official deception of citizens is a dialy occurrence, for
"national security reasons", which has more to do with protecting
those in power than protecting the nation. But even though many
government lies are exposed, many others have not yet come out. It is
a common tactic to confess to small misdeeds to throw investigators
off the trail of major crimes.

Intelligence agents are also taught how to sabotage, steal, arrange
coups, set up phony front organizations, blow up buildings, cars and
planes, and kill people without being detected. These are their
products, the things they are paid to do. So its it any wonder we now
have a world in which all these things occur constantly and are
attributed to other sources?

When truth is what is really wanted, many popular deceptions must be
given up. Most people trying to reach the truth would prefer to pause
at a safe plateau of group agreement along the way. However, the world
situation has reached the point where learning what is really going on
is far more important than maintaining confidence in governments,
corporations, schools and established media. When the map you're
following is of some imaginary land instead of where you really are,
of course you'll be mystified by what you see around you.

If while reading this you are experiencing disbelief or outrage, you'd
better start studying some of the references listed below, because
you'll be a lot more upset if you find out later that it's all true,
whe it's too late for you to do anything about it.

Or perhaps nations of sheep deserve to be fleeced, and then...? Come
on!

It's time to stop pretending we don't know any better.

PREDICTIONS

Often those taken in by clever con-jobs don't report it, preferring
not to look like stupid suckers. On a grand scale, this and group
agreement dependency must explain most Americans' continued tolerance
of the high treason portrayed as well-intentioned bungling, that
passes for U.S. foreign and domestic policy. Until now.

This year, millions of Americans will stop buying the official stories
and start looking and thinking for themselves, including those
military and government people who discover they've also been
betrayed. We're about to see unprecedented non-compliance with
institutionalized scams and foreign conquests that have enriched a few
at great cost to all others.

No longer mistaking the symbol for the thing, true patriots will
reaffirm their loyalty to the people, land and principles of America;
not the White House, Pentagon or corporate warmongers who create and
strengthen our enemies so we'll keep paying more for "security".

Communism is such a stupid and repressive system that it has been easy
to persuade citizens that it's also the cause of all our troubles. But
such simplistic explanations for continuing warfare, in the face of a
global demand for peace, are looking more ridiculous every year. The
collaboration at the highest levels between U.S. and Soviet weapons
merchants to perpetuate demand for their products has become too
blatant to ignore.

A much higher percentage of American business, media and government
leaders, ashamed at having allowed U.S.-sponsored coups, terrorism,
genocide, parasitism and hypocrisy to make the U.S. the most hated and
feared of all nations, will stop assisting their own would-be
enslavers and instead pour some of their wealth into world-healing
projects. They'll choose to be remembered as heroes who helped rescue
the planet at the last possible minute, rather than as greedy,
short-sighted jerks who kept trying to hold back the future right up
until it crushed them.

Regardless of who helps and who doesn't, the suppression of proven
solutions for major problems and resource shortages by the monopolists
that profit by perpetuating them, will no longer be permitted.

The dams of deception are about to burst, and the flood of truth will
simply wash away anyone who tries to stop it. Far safer to help the
truth come out now and release the pressure less explosively.

FREE ENERGY OPTIONS

There is no energy shortage, only a blocked information flow on
fuelless energy sources. The major media are owned mostly by the same
characters who own the energy conglomerates, so they should not be
expected to publicize alternatives to their monopolies. Citizens who
are tired of being misled need to look into the scientific
underground's information channels.

Everything perceivable is composed of energy. The fabric of space
itself has an energy density per cubic centimeter far exceeding the
entire world's energy consumption, regardless of whather the space is
occupied by matter. This is due to its oscillation frequency being
sixty octaves above the top of the known spectrum, which stops at an
electron's diameter. Energy potential increases with frequency of
vibration. We do not feel the enormous pressure of this electric
fluid, just as we do not feel the ten or fifteen tons of constant air
pressure on our bodies.

Tiny amounts of this energy are drawn from the "space-juice" in all
energy production methods. The apparent source of energy may be
photons, combustion of hydrocarbons, atomic disruption or mechanical
conversion, but in all cases it is the same ultimate source, appearing
in various forms.

The US Patent Office categorically denies patents to any invention
that seems to involve "perpetual motion". Manufacturers won't touch an
unpatentable device. Thus the public is denied access to energy
conversion systems that seem to derive power "from nowhere". Actually
the law of conservation of energy is not violated by such devices.
They are merely tapping an officially unrecognized source. A windmill
would appear to violate conservation of energy as well, if we had no
other means of feeling or detecting the wind.

Interestingly, despite this restriction a number of patents have been
granted for instruments that can run themselves and have power left
over. In most of these the self-powering feature is not directly
pointed out in the patent application. Apparently it goes unnoticed by
the overworked examiners, who by now have approved nearly five million
patents.

Our civilization utilizes only a small percentage of those five
million inventions. Scattered among the remainder are some fascinating
alternatives to what currently prevails. They have never been
implemented only because they threaten to render various existing
industrial monopolies obsolete. Agents of the power elite routinely
sabotage efforts to get such breakthroughs into mass production.

Currently in the news is Joe Newman's Energy Machine. While Reagan
stalled on acid rain, and Hodel pushed offshore drilling, the US
Patent Office continued to block commercial development of this latest
of many government-smothered free energy devices.

Newman is suing the patent office for refusing to grant his machine a
patent, in violation of their own regulations and the advice of the
expert they chose to examine the device. They also are issuing false
statements to the press about the invention's workability. Over thrity
respected electrical engineers, physicists and technical experts have
endorsed Newman's machine and signed affidavits confirming his claim
of greater energy output than external energy input. Ten congressmen
have introduced bills which would require Newman's patent be granted.

As the Newman battle heated up, Reagan appointed Donald Quigg, a
thirty-year Phillips Petroleum executive, to head the Patent and
Trademark Office. The Judge entrusted with the case, Thomas P.
Jackson, has violated judicial procedure, ignored expert testimony and
ordered Newman's prototype confiscated and destroyed. During
Watergate, Jackson was the attorney for John Mitchell and CREEP's
corrupt finance division.

Newman identified the gyroscopic properties of subatomic particles and
built a unique arrangement of coils and magnets to draw energy
directly from them, thus converting almost immeasu rably small amounts
of the machine's mass into energy. Theory and device are detailed in
"The Energy Machine", $38.45 including postage, from Joseph Newman
Publishing Co, Route 1, Box 52, Lucedale, Mississippi 39452;
601-947-7147. Free press releases and brief technical decsriptions are
also available, send SASE.

Much quieter is H R Johnson of Blacksburg, Virginia. His motor simply
puts the continuous power of magnets in a usable rotary form. The
device is composed of specially curved magnets, and uses the
difference in force and quality of their north and south poles to
create a net unidirectional rotation. His patent number is 4,151,431,
granted in 1979, but commercial production does not appear to be
occurring.

Professor Shinichi Seike of Uwajima, Japan has built gravity-field
energy converters out of coils resembling mobius bands and klein
bottles. The equations describing electrical flow in such topological
curiosities are very strange indeed. Imaginary numbers appear in the
energy output figures. Power seems to well up inside the devices,
which have no moving parts.

Seike's work is covered in his book, "The Principles of
Ultra-Relativity", $40 from Gravity Research Lab PO Box 33, Uwajima,
Ehime (798) Japan.

Fourteen years ago Joseph Papp was granted US Patwnt #3,670,494 for
his Noble Gas Plasma Engine. A mixture of inert gases (helium, neon,
argon, krypton, xenon) is sparked in a sealed cylinder with a piston.
The spark causes the gases to expand violently though no cpombustion
is occurring.

Mechanical energy is delivered by the piston's displacement. The gases
immediately collapse to their original density and the cyle is
repeated. After several thousand hours the gases lose their elasticity
and are replaced.

Many types of ordinary rock actually emit electricity at a rate of
roughly a volt per foot thickness of rock. Take a slab of granite or
basalt, paint copper on both ends and attach wires to the painted
surfaces, making in effect a large capacitor. Hook the wires to an
electrostatic type voltmeter that can detect small currents, and a
continuous flow of electricity will appear. The amount of current
increases with the surface area of the rock faces. The voltage
fluctuates daily by about thirty percent, and is strongest when our
galaxy's core is overhead, suggesting that the rock is translating
gravity waves into electricity. It remains to be seen in this can be
adapted to provide usable amounts of energy. Details on this
phenomenon can be found in Townsend Brown's papers on
"Petro-voltaics", $17 from Rex Research, Box 1258, Berkeley. CA 94701.

There are many other free energy systems that have been devised in
this century alone, with varying degrees of efficiency and
verifiability. None have stood a chance so far against the existing
energy monopolies. Perhaps the threat of nuclear- and oil-induced
ecological and economic disasters is finally severe enough to bring on
a massive public demand for re-examination of these clean
alternatives. In future issues of NOW WHAT we'll examine some of these
in more detail. Meanwhile a reference list is provided for those who
are interested in knowing more.

Sometimes it seems like your luck has to balance out somehow, where
you have to undergo a total bummer to set you up for something great

I was hoping this would be one of those times. A blown head gasket on
an empty desert highway should be worth some sort of break to even
things out, preferably before the sun melted me into the asphalt.

But so far all I was getting was a new and deeper appreciation of the
word *barren*. Even the occasional scragglebush looked like it really
resented being here, and wasn't about to put any more than the bare
minimum of survival effort into it.

The SubGenius boasts about Time Control always sound like a bunch of

and my scrambled synapses still haven't settled. How do I apply some

survive you-know-what?

Sometimes it seems like your luck has to balance out somehow, where
you have to undergo a total bummer to set you up for something great
you'd never have run into otherwise.

I was hoping this would be one of those times. A blown head gasket on
an empty desert highway should be worth some sort of break to even
things out, preferably before the sun melted me into the asphalt.

But so far all I was getting was a new and deeper appreciation of the
word *barren*. Even the occasional scragglebush looked like it really
resented being here, and wasn't about to put any more than the bare
minimum of survival effort into it.

So much for shortcuts. I'd been walking for three hours and had seen
only only one car. The expressions glimpsed on the flyby were of dull
surprise that anyone would even try to hitch a ride in this time and
place - a feeling I could appreciate.

It was getting rather obvious that years of city life had left me in
pitiful shape. Only a few hours out in a hot but otherwise ordinary
American desert and I was nearly wiped out already.

This was no longer just a matter of missing a long-shot job interview
that might have helped me postpone lifting anything heavier than a
paintbrush a little while longer. It was starting to look like all my
stubborn resistance to changing times had caught up with me. When
their basic survival needs get threatened, most folks' interest in
"art" evaporates quicker than piss on a desert bush, which got the
unpleasant surprise of discovering that it could get even more
resentful than it already was.

Shortly after that so did I. My crude pack of stuff salvaged from the
car got its fill of bouncing and bellyaching, split o pen and
scattered feeble expressions of American "culture" across the gravel.
How appropriate. The phrase "World Without Slack" kept taking opn new
and more exasperating significance.

While I was crouching there, telling various inanimate objects how
stupid they were and patching the pack up by tying my shirt around it,
all my arm and neck hairs suddenly stood up.

I turned around, and there was the smoothest-looking sports car I've
ever seen, standing with the passengr door open. Instant floods of
relief struggled with major danger signals for control of my legs.
There was no way I could have missed seeing that car miles ahead of
its arrival. I'd been looking back a lot oftener than any logical
expectations could justify. And even with all the smkog that's crept
into the desert basins, visibility was still at least twenty miles, on
a road going straight over the horizon.

The desperate craving for shade won out. Dehydration makes me capable
of superhuman rationalizations. The car was actually the same shimmery
color as the road, and might have been mistaken for part of the
constant mirage. The motor was too quiet to be heard over the mild
desert winds - which, rather than cooling me off, tended to produce a
slight blowtorch effect.

And anyway, how could something so beautiful be dangerous? Its curve
was completely different yet thoroughly appropriate. The interior was
a deep moss green, and a cool ocean breeze seemed to be flowing from
inside it. This car was definitely not made in Detroit.

As I stepped up to the open door I could see that the kid at the wheel
looked harmless enough - scrawny, and unarmed unless his swimming
trunks had a secret compartment, or the car itself was one big weapon.
I collapsed into the strange green upholstery and pulled the door
shut. The sound reminded me slightly of a submarine hatch closing.

"Thanks", I rasped. "Thatw was getting embarrassing."

The kid just smiled and floored it. We went from zero to about one-ten
in seven seconds, with no gear changes that I could detect. The bucket
seat yielded in all the right places, but I immediately discovered
there were no seat belts. And all that I could figure out was that he
must have some really ultimate soundproofing, because I could hardly
hear any engine noise. This was just sort of a deep muffled pounding
whoosh, like a distant waterfall.

"What kind of car is this?"

"You sound awful. Here, soak those vocal cords before you break
something.

Unless you're trying for a New Sound, maybe."

I seized the water jug, closed my eyes and swallowed until I had to
stop for air. Then I sat there gasping and trying to identify some of
the extra stuff in the car's instrument cluster. What little I thought
I could recognize made no sense at all, so I looked at the driver
instead.

He didn't seem to make sense either. For one thing, he was soaked, not
from sweat but as if he'd just been swimming five minutes ago. He
looked quite cool and comfortable, and smelled like seawater - of
which the nearest had to be a couple hundred miles away.

Also, he didn't entirely look like a kid, up close. The face was maybe
nineteen, but the eyes seemed much too confident and experienced.
Though he looked thin, the muscle definition was unusually sharp. And
his hands and feet looked like they'd seen at least thirty years of
heavy work, and were up for plenty more whenever.

I acted mildly unastounded by our speed and silence and took another
shot at conversation. "You're probably wondering how I came to be
stuck out here."

"Not really."

Normally I'd expect to be annoyed at such indifference to human
suffering, especially mine, but he was so matter-of-fact about it.

He added, "One dead car, three hours cold, and one overheated
hitchhiker two hours' walk past it. Nothing else around for miles.
Fairly short list of possible explanations, eh?"

In these irritating times that sort of a statement might be considered
as a mild put-down, especially from a strange and evidently
well-financed teenager.

But here it came across perfectly straightforward.

I credited my extra tolerance to the relief of getting out from under
the sun, and to the water's invigorating aftertaste.

"What's in this stuff?"

"A few trace minerals, some North Pole magnetism and extra oxygen."

My stomach started feeling rather odd. "How do you get magnetism into
water?"

"Put the north face of a large, flat magnet against it for a while.
Makes it more able to hold things in solution. Don't use the south
face unless the water's for plants."

"Uh, just how much stuff is in solution here?"

"Very little. It's mostly to help it dissolve and carry out
unnecessary stuff from whoever's drinking it."

I had to admit that sounded like a good idea. Depending of course on
who was defining "unnecessary", and for what.

He took a giant swallow of the jug so I let it slide, then remembered
something else. "How could you tell my car was three hours cold?"

"Infrared. Comes in handy when you drive at night a lot."

I was trying hard not to goggle at the instrument panel, but it was
rather spooky. There were pressure and temperature gauges: internal,
external and somewhere else. There were high-voltage dials,
gas-mixture indicators, gauges for magnetic and gravitational field
intensities, a ship's floating compass, little radar and sonar
screens, dials I couldn't identify at all, and some sort of range
finder.

But there was no fuel gauge anywhere. Also, the speedometer had no
numbers on it, just colors, and the needle was shockingly low on the
dial. Unless it read backwards, it was meant to be able to register
speeds many times higher than what we were doing. If that wasn't weird
enough, there was an altimeter, next to a depth gauge.

Looking at all that stuff, I didn't know whether to laugh or try to
escape.

A lot of it appeared to have been salvaged from other vehicles. Most
of the controls were touch-sensitive patches behind the same clear
shield that covered all the gauges. What should have been a gearshift
obviously wasn't, since he hadn't touched it yet. There were extra
knobs branching off it, and what looked like backhoe levers beside it.
There were also several small video screens, all empty.

Seen against all this, the faded "Bob" sticker on the glove
compartment was rather reassuring. I'd met lots of SubGeniuses, and
while most were pretty peculiar, none seemed to be actually dangerous
to me so far.

Just over the windscreen was a full-length detailed chart of the
electromagnetic spectrum, with tiny indicator lights along the whole
thing, including an extra upper section I'd never seen. Strangest of
all, sprouting from among the gauges were nine different clock faces
with little dagger-shaped joysticks poking out of them.

My stomach suddenly felt very peculiar, and I involuntarily shook like
a wet dog for an instant, then let out a tremendous belch. Just as
suddenly I felt all right, better than I had all day.

"What the heck was that?"

"You just clobbered the anaerobic germs in your stomach, and also
boosted your oxygen saturation a bit."

"Huh?"

"You have a severe oxygen deficiency, like most people in this time
period.

Due to pollution and deforestation, right now your atmospheric oxygen
levels are at an all-time low, so the oxygen pressure in your blood is
insufficient to guard you against oxygen-hating microbes. You become
slightly stagnant, and serve as a growth medium for anaerobic
parasites. But all pathogens are inherently much weaker than you own
cells, which are a lot more highly evolved than viruses, bacteria,
fungus and such. So you can always get rid of them by just raising
your internal oxygen concentration above what they can stand.

I was still working on the first part. "I've heard of all kinds of
nutritional deficiencies, but oxygen?"

"Your body's supposed to be at least eighty percent water, which is
eight ninths oxygen."

"Wait a minute, water is two hydrogens for each oxygen, right?" I was
not exactlya chemistry whiz.

"Yeah, but the oxygen atom is sixteen times bigger, remember?" I
hadn't.

"You're supposed to be composed of over two thirds oxygen, twice as
much as everything else in you combined. The bigger a proportion of
something in a formula, the more margin there is in the high to low
range of how much you can put in and still make that formula work.
That also applies to the formula for an organism.

"So you can see how a person could exist anywhere along a wide range
of oxygen saturation that can support his cells, though the lower
levels are not much fun. But people can still function, more or less,
even at oxygen percentages so low that anaerobic microbes can inhabit
them quite comfortably."

"Well, how can you tell if your oxygen level is high enough?"

"If you get sick, it isn't."

"But everyone gets sick sometimes."

"Everyone you know about. You're all oxygen-starved, that's all."

I considered this while watching the desert race by. I was strangely
reluctant to ask how we managed to hurtle over this beat-up old
highway without feeling any real bumps or vibrations. Instead I asked,
"Well, doesn't the encyclopedia still say oxygenx makes up twenty-one
percent of our atmosphere?"

"Have you measured it yourself lately? They haven't. They just keep
printing the same figures from earlier editions."

"So what level is it?"

"Depends where you measure it. In a healthy rain forest it can still
get up over twenty percent. But most large cities have very few trees
and lots of carbon monoxide, which, being electrically unstable,
gobbles up free oxygen like crazy, to become carbon dioxide, which is
more stable. In those cities it gets down to twelve percent or less at
times. In Eastern Europe, with the whole Western world's pollution
blowing at them, even wooded areas can drop below fifteen percent.
Entire forests are dying there. For humans, suffocation occurs at
around seven percent."

"You mean that the cities are already more than halfway to
suffocating?"

"Right. What do you think causes early heart attacks, crib deaths and
crashed immune systems? Very little of that happening in mountain
villages. A mammal's immune system uses lots of single-atom oxygen in
knocking off germs, and carries it around H2O2. That's because singlet
oxygen itslef is so reactive it only stays loose for maybe a millionth
of a second before oxidizing the nearest appropriate molecule. You
should be internally producing and using several quarts of H2O2 every
day, but you can't if there's not enough oxygen available from your
air."

A little of this was coming back now. "H2O2? You mean hydrogen
peroxide?"

"Yeah, oxygen water. The tiny amount in what you drank oxidized the
pathogens in your stomach."

"That stuff they sell in brown bottles?" Yucko.

"No, the pure food-grade kind, thirty-five percent, which can hurt you
if you don't dilute it enough. Lots of health-food stores carry it
now. The drugstore variety has chemical stabilizers in it. Okay to put
a little on a wound, but not much else."

"Stabilizers?"

"Supposedly to keep the oxygen from escaping, but it's really more
stable than they let on. Mainly it's so no one will use enough of it
all at once to get rid of a major disease that should have netted some
hospital at least twenty grand."

"What? Which diseases can you get rid of with it?"

"All of them. But oxygen water is too simple and cheap to draw any
commercial interest. Unpatentable."

"What do you mean, all of them?"

"Like I said, all disease organisms prefer much lower oxygen
saturations than what your cells function best at. Their primitive,
fragile membranes break down at concentrations a healthy human cell
merely finds invigorating.

You need it constantly; oxygen's the only thing you can die in minutes
without. Get enough and it protects you from disease."

"What about cancer?"

"Especially cancer. It's anaerobic; high oxygen levels kill it pretty
fast.

Otto Warburg won a Nobel Prize back in the 1930s for pointing that
out, but your medical establishment has ignored the principle since
then. Too unprofitable. Cancer cells get energy from glucose by
fermentation instead of oxidizing it like normal cells. This wastes so
much energy that the healthy cells can't get enough to function and
the cancer squeezes them out, unless you intervene by raising the
oxygen level one way or another."

I thought of a couple of friends who should be hearing this. My
growing exhilaration wasn't just from watching the now painless desert
zooming past.

"Why isn't all this written up somewhere?"

"It is, it's just unpublicized. Hundreds of physicians have
independently reported curing all kinds of supposedly incurable
diseases by raising the patient's oxygen saturation, whether with
intravenous H2O2, ozone blood infusions, taheebo or hyperbaric oxygen
tanks, all of which simply raise the level of H2O2 in the blood. But
the way of modern science is to disregard any facts that fit the
accepted lucrative theory. And disease is a multibillion-dollar
industry, in case you hadn't noticed."

"For someone so young, you are well-informed but awfully cynical."

He chuckled lightly. "Just how old do you hink I am?"

I was spared the embarrassment of guessing completely wrong by a small
interruption. A kamikaze jackrabbit apparently decided we were its
ticket out of this desert and maybe out of rabbithood, and scooted
right in front of us.

The kid's hand twisted part of the steering wheel like a motorcycle
throttle, and the whole car smoothly lifted a couple of feet then
dropped back to the road. I turned and glimpsed a surprisingly
complicated expression on the receding rabbit.

"Would you mind telling me where this car was made?"

"Detroit, mostly."

"Uh, Detroit in Michigan?"

"Where else?"

I really wasn't holding up my end of the discussion very well. But I
was still determined to at least be too cool to ask why he was
dripping wet in an air-conditioned car ninety miles from any water.

That was another thing I realized just then: The air conditioning was
supreme. Instead of the usual dry, synthetic-tasting car air, this air
was cool, moist, and invigorating, like the air near a waterfall. The
roasted landscape whizzing by, and the relentless sun beating down all
around, might as well have been on a movie screen for all the effect
they ahd on us.

I tried a different approach. "Is your air conditioner a custom job as
well?"

"Actually it's fairly standard at this car's point of origin. Nice,
eh? The extra moisture, oxugen and negative ions make it pretty close
to the optimum breathing mix for humans."

I spotted the inside air-mix gauge. "Thirty percent oxygen? Isn't that
supposed to be twenty-one?"

:Just because it was twenty-one when the encyclopedias first came out
doesn't mean that's optimum. Desertification of Earth has been going
on a long time, though the current rate is unprecedented. Remember
hearing about those scientists who measured the air mix in bubbles
trapped in fossilized amber? It tested out around this high. These
samples were trapped about the time the mammals took over. Not much
tree-cutting or gas-burning going on back then, and the plant-animal
ratio was ideal. Under those conditions eventually humans appeared,
designed to operate at that oxygen percentage."

"So it's dropped by a third since then?"

"It's had lots of help. Currently the manufacture and operation of
your machinery consumes eighteen times the oxygen you use up through
breathing.

That's the equivalent of another ninety million people standing around
sharing your air, all so someone can keep selling oil and cars and
such. Talk about wasteful, it works out that driving twenty thousand
miles uses up as much oxygen as breathing for two years."

"Folks do have a right to travel, though."

"Absolutely, but there are much cleaner, cheaper and safer methods,
ready and waiting, still as effective as back when they were invented
and neglected.

Same with oxygen as a healing principle. It's an ancient concept,
appearing in various forms throughout history, but you all need it now
more than ever. It stands to reason that if your body contains over
three times the percentage of oxygen that's in the air, it has to work
a lot harder at concentrating whatever it extracts through nreathing
when the atmospheric oxygen level drops. So supplementing it with
oxywater or other h igh-oxygen substances becomes the most logical
short-term solution."

"How about long-term?"

"Re-establish a healthy global oxygen production-consumption balance,
if you're up to the task. It can be done, though the situation may
need to get even worse before enough folks get their priorities
straight. Like a lot of things, oxygen is taken for granted, but since
it is so reactive, free oxygen has to constantly be replenished or it
all gets bound up in other compounds.

Keep trashing your forests and your oceans' phytoplankton, and you'll
all be gasping long before X-Day."

"Oh yeah, when's that again?"

"Soon enough that you'd better get cracking. It'll be hard enough as
it is, trying to mobilize a bunch of oxygen-starved Normals, and the
longer you wait the more sick and tired and useless they'll become."

I had a sudden flash. "Is this why people were supposedly stronger and
lived longer in early Biblical times?"

"Precisely. Though by then there was already some atmospheric damage
from earlier civilzations."

"What, like Atlantis?"

"Among others. Many civilizations go through a brief deforestation and
fossil-fuel-burning stage, but this one has been artificially retarded
and kept there for over a century."

"By whom?"

"When you find the answer to that question, you will then know what to
do about it."

"Some reason you can't just tell me?"

"At this point you'd never believe it, and that would interfere with
your grasping certain other necessary facts first."

I made a disrespectful noise. "You sound just like my old college
professor, Mr. McSploont."

"How clever of him. What'd he teach?"

"Disregard for college professors, mostly. I expect he eventually
melted down in the white heat of his own brilliance."

He smiled a knowinxg smile that wasn't smug or irritating, but rather
a bit frightening, hinting at vast hard-won experience.

"So besides being physically less healthy overall, noticed anything
else wrong with city folks?" he asked quietly.

"You name it, they've screwed it up. Basically most of them just act
unbelievably lame, and tolerate the most absurd stuff you can imagine.
There's some exceptions, but I mean, like, have you switched on a TV
set lately?"

He casually touched part of the spectrum chart overhead. One screen
lit up with a retina-wrenching ten-second montage of about ninety
different TV channels, then he switched it off. "Yup, pretty pitiful."

I was staring at the blank screen. "Uh, well, yeah, there you are."

"So what do you reckon makes them act like that?"

"Beats me." It was reassuring to refer to "them" as if I had rarely
lived in a city. "It's like they're all brain-damaged. Which is a real
drag, considering that's where all the governments are located... hey,
wait a minute."

He grinned. "Exactly. What happens to a brain that gets
oxygen-starved?"

Mine seemed to be slipping gears a bit. "It goes to that big scrap
bucket in the sky, eventually. But continuous gradual oxygen
starvation, over a period of years..." I had to admit this could
explain an awful lot of modern human behavior. "Earlier you implied
that all this was somehow deliberate. Does someone actually want
people brain-damaged and stupid?"

"Did you attend a public school? Do you follow the so-called news?
Have you browsed through a pharmacy recently?"

"Well, okay, but aren't most of the guys behind all that living right
there in the cities too?"

"The most powerful ones all have their own remote strongholds, and can
afford to have many others fronting for them. A good rule of thumb is,
if someone's in the news, that person's not actually running things.
And hired help are seldom in on the big picture, or the true purpose
of their assigned tasks."

We reached the crest of a long, low rise an,d started down the other
side.

There was a slight bend ahead, with another road feeding in from the
south, all of which seemed a lot mroe interesting than it really was,
due to following so many miles of straightness. At the very edge of
visibility it looked like there was a little town. It struck me that I
had one hell of a lot of unasked questions still, and for all I knew
this could be his destination coming up.

I took a wild guess. "Since you're not a big fan of air pollution, I
assume this car is electrical, somehow."

"You could say that. It has more than one system, but the motor we're
using at the moment is a variation on the Noble Gas Plasma Engine
invented by Joseph Papp in the early seventies. Of course, since it's
cheap and fuelless it was never allowed to be commercially developed."

"Of course. How does it manage to be fuelless with gas plasma?"

"Noble gases. They're inert; with their outer electron shells already
full, they've got no incentive to hook up with other atoms. So they
aren't being burned or broken down, just induced to expand repeatedly.
Put a certain mix

of noble gases in a sealed cylinder with a piston, spark it and pulse
a magnetic field around it, and the gases repel each other quite
fiercely for an instant, then collapse back to their previous state,
to be sparked again. The energy delivered by the piston's displacement
greatly exceeds that required to spark the gases, providing a net
excess for a self-powering system."

"Are you saying this thing is a perpetual motion machine?"

"We're living on the surface of a great big perpetual motion machine
and composed of godzillions of little tiny ones, so shouldn't they be
able to exist on our scale as well?"

"Well, those things'll all  wind down eventually, right?"

"They'll run long enough for whatever you plan on doing with them.
Anyhow, this design is somewhat less than perpetual; every hundred
thousand miles or so the gases lose their elasticity and need to be
replaced."

"Sounds pretty tough."

"Sure beats making your whole lower atmosphere taste like a monoxide
suicide's garage."

"Couldn't we retrofit existing car engines to run off this?"

"Simpler to start from scratch, but maybe. Seal off the valves, throw
away the carburetor, fuel lines, exhaust manifold and so forth,
evacuate the cylinders and let in the inert gas mix. It'd become
two-stroke, since there's nothing for it to suck in or exhaust."

"So this gas is some combination of helium, neon, argon, krypton and
xenon?" I was amazed I could still remember their names. "I suppose
the exact mixture is privileged information."

"Technically, but it's locatable. The inventor's still alive, last we
heard, but understandably rather frustrated. It's always
disillusioning to work out a practical solution for some major
problem, only to find that there's someone profiting hugely by keeping
the problem just the way it is."

For some reason I didn't resist this notion as much as I usually
would, even though it implied my eventually having to help do
something about it. But at the moment what I really wanted was
details. "Where could I find diagrams and such? I'm no engineer but I
know a couple. While we're at it, how's that gearless transmission
work? And what was that hopping trick? I'm assuming you'd like others
to pick up on these inventions."

"Naturally. The drive gear consists of long cones pointing in opposite
directions, with a heavy triangular belt that slides along them,
giving a smoothly variable ratio between their cross sections. Again,
it's not a new idea, but it had anti-commercial potential, being much
too efficient and durable, so no way was any major automaker going to
retool for that."

"I'd think the first to do it would make a fortune. Who wouldn't want
one?"

"You're kidding, right? At first, sure they would, but then that'd be
the end of selling replacement transmissions, and cost billions in
lost engine sales and repairs, from the greatly reduced wear. Plus
billions more in lowered gasoline consumption, due to improved
efficiency. As for the rest of it, remind me to give you a few patent
numbers and such before you get off."

It occurred to me that during all this I still hadn't asked how far he
was going. Whatever it was, we'd be arriving a lot sooner than
expected.

There was a billboard, of all things, about four miles ahead of us.
Mr.

Science touched something under one of the video scree ns and it gave
us a zoom picture of the road ahead. He reached up and pushed a spot
just below the visible-light band on the spectrum chart, and a little
car-shaped pink spot with abright center appeared on the screen at the
bottom of the billboard.

"Nice of 'em to build that feller some shade. Though I doubt he's been
there long."

"Well, don't you think you should slow down a bit?"

He shook his head. "My, aren't you well-conditioned. Don't sweat it;
this car's not under any local jurisdictions."

While I considered my response, trying to choose between sounding real
law-abiding and getting some clarification, we zipped past the
billboard. He touched a spot on the radio portion of the spectrum,
just as a very dusty police car lurched out after us in a cloud of
gravel.

"Got a live one, Charlie", buzzed a small speaker in the dash. "No
plates, too fast to get the make. At least one-twenty."

"Want me to come on out?" A fainter voice, younger.

"May need you for a roadblock, so stand by. Let's see if this new
engine is as good as Clyde says."

We were already nearly a mile past him but now we could hear a faint
siren, slowly getting louder. We slowed down slightly, a move which
sort of seemed at cross-purposes with rocketing past a sherriff in the
first place. My ever-unpredictable benefactor hit a button under the
speaker and said, "Are you attempting to get my attention, officer?"

There was a brief spluttering noise, then a few clenched words. "Smart
boy, huh? Pull your fancy self over, before I get irritated."

"That shouldn't be necessary. I can easily answer your questions in
this manner, without being late for my destination."

"You think this is open for discussion? Identify yourself."

"Changesmith. Or CS, whichever. Who's this?"

"Officer Harry Scrotum. You have about five seconds to pull off my
highway." "I see", said CS sympathetically. "What seems to be the
trouble?"

"Are you nuts? Reckless endangerment, doing twice the limit,
unauthorized use of police bands, no plates; hell, I expect your
fine'll buy us a whole new station. You're even hauling drugs for all
I know."

CS smiled questioningly at me and I shook my head. "Nope", he said.
"And no one uses them from where I'm from."

"Drugs?"

"License plates."

There was a strained silence. He evidently was not up for pursuing the
implications of that. We were now less than a quarter mile ahead of
the sherriff's car, which was still creeping closer, apparently at its
top speed.

Changesmith added helpfully, "If our velocity is causing concern, be
reassured that this vehicle is crash-proof and does not threaten the
safety of local traffic, should there happen to be any."

There was a heavy sigh. "Charlie, get that block up, now. Don't use
any working vehicles; drag over some clunkers from Philo's lot.

"And as for you, snakebrain, consider yourself warned. This is your
last chance to pull over in one piece."

"Sorry to disturb tour programming, but it's a mistake to assume that
everything that moves through your area is subject to your rules and
limitations."

"That's it, pal, your detah wish is granted."

A sudden shimmy fro the left hind wheel was followed by the faint
sound of two gunshots. Changesmith touched a panel on the dash and a
small sign lit up that said GUNJAMMER, then he accelerated us a bit.
The shimmy grew more pronounced, then there was a loud clank and it
stopped entirely.

No flat tire, and no more gunfire that I could hear. I looked back to
see a pistol being violently shaken out the cop's window, accompanied
by some general-purpose curses coming over the speaker.

CS said, "Sorry, but we couldn't chance a ricochet hitting someone in
your town up ahead", and switched off the speaker.

"What'd you do?" I asked.

"Ever hear of a subject known as sonochemistry? Production of chemical
changes with sound waves? This is related; we're broadcasting a
simulation of the wave pattern that occurs when water blocks the
oxidizing spaces in gunpowder. Since matter is junior to energy, many
effects can be induced on the physical level simply by emitting the
kinds of vibrations which accompany and direct them."

"Now that I like. How wide an area is affected?"

"The range varies with the power and circuit design. At the moment, no
one can shoot anybody within about twelve miles of us."

"Well, all right! Does it interfere at all with organic oxidation?"

"Good question, but no; cellular processes are all much less
explosive.

Different frequencies altogether."

"Couldn't someone just mass-produce these things, hide them all over
the world, and stop wars and murders once and for all?"

"With enough time and materials, yes. Appealing idea, isn't it? Like
taking matches away from children."

I thought about it. "On the other hand, I suppose the more extreme gun
lovers would all come after you with crossbows, until it sunk in that
now they'd be protected as well. You'd have to be pretty discreet."

He zoomed the picture on the screen a bit more, and the rusty town
became quite visible, complete with roadblock. The crew that was
pushing it together seemed to be engaged in a lively argument with
some old desert rat over one of the cars they'd included.

CS chuckled and switched the speaker back on. "How's your engine
holding up?"

"Oh, so you're back, eh? I see we can add Giving False Names to the
list of charges."

"Not at all.
