Zur Abwechslung etwas zum Schmunzeln
"A freshman at Eagle Rock Junior High Won first prize at
the Greater Idaho Falls Science Fair, April 26, 2000. He
was attempting to show how conditioned we have become to
the alarmists practicing junk science and spreading fear
of everything in our environment.
"In his project, he urged people to sign a petition
demanding strict control, or total elimination of the
chemical"DIHYDROGEN MONOXIDE". And, for plenty of good
reasons, since...
1. It can cause excessive sweating and vomiting;
2. It is a major component of acid rain;
3. It can cause severe burns in its gaseous state;
4. Accidental inhalation can kill you;
5. It contributes to erosion;
6. It decreases the effectiveness of automobile brakes;
7. It has been found in tumors of terminal cancer
patients.
"The student asked 50 people if they supported a ban of
the chemical? 43 said,"YES"; 6 were undecided; and, only
one knew that the chemical was H2O.....water!
"The title of his prize-winning project was:"HOW
GULLIBLE ARE WE?" The conclusion is pretty obvious!"

Dort sagt er uebrigens noch folgendes:
*** A number of cynical commentators thought they saw
something underhanded in Friday's market action. John
Crudele, writing in the NY Post, said on Thursday that
the Fed would intervene on Friday to prevent panic
selling. Bill King noted what looked to him like"impact
trading" on Friday morning - in which large players
intentionally try to run up prices by buying highly
leveraged derivatives. He reported strangely"aggressive
buying...serious buyers do not act this way," he said.
