The woo-woo magnet thread contained a link to the "educate yoursef" site.

http://educate-yoursef.org.

But there is even more than meets the eye:

Here is the cure for "chemtrails"! Enjoy!

Is the educate-yourself site a conspiracy site? they seem to be pushing a lot of conspiracies, specially the illuminati one.

Just an example:

draft boards gearing up:

http://educate-yourself.org/cn/draft...p09aug05.shtml

The draft after a fake terrorist attack will come according to these people.

You will always find conspiracies there. Open an account and expose them. But careful, they may call you a 'government sheep".

I think that's a yes. He claims he can controll the weather, that Sylphs exist, that Chemtrails are out there etc. And those are just what I've gotten from two posts on this board...

(Dang, I really need to flesh out that article.)

Some years ago I was flying across North Dakota on a very cold January day in a Cessna 120. Something on the ground caught my eye so I did a 180 to take another look. During the turn I was startled to see a vapor trail behind my airplane. My first thought was smoke, then I realized that it was a contrail. That was kinda cool.

Reinstating the draft would require an act of Congress. However, Congress is out until early September (don't you love it that our hard wording legislators get a whole month of vacation?).

Can somebody repost the link tmosher posted? I can't get it from google and I want it to discuss with some CTers at the moment. Is the factcheck.org site unavailable?

I have never seen anything on the "educate yourself" site that was not pure garbage. For example, cellphone towers are really "microwave ELF" (love that combination) antennas which broadcast "mind control signals."

The "draft" is a hardy perennial topic. When it was pointed out that legislation would be required to impose a military draft, the response was that "..a law was secretly passed.." or that "TPTB didn't need a law, they just do whatever they want..."

Well, they do broadcast mind control signals. I've seen people dramatically change their behavior as a result of information received from cellphone towers

I thought Standing Wave Ratios were used for mind control? Now I'm confused.

I know the info of educate yourself is pretty much garbage. I meant this link:

http://www.factcheck.org/article200.html

It is maybe because the site is unavailable. I want to know if someone can repost it.

I'll second that notion. It seems that, whenever I see someone talking on their cell phones, they seem to be receiving signals telling them to target my car and turn it into scrap metal.

The Confused Philosopher - RCAF

Another anecdotal experience reported:
August 14, 2005 (Texas)
"We had an enterprising young engineer who was quite interested in the possibilities of this technology. During calendar 2000, he constructed a unit following the instructions outlined in your reference url. The unit was placed on top of a 12' earthen enclosure surrounding one of our rural residences. the open country allowed an unobstructed view in all directions. We were quite astonished at the striking results obtained by his "cloudbuster". In one particularly impressive rainstorm event, a very powerful storm front approached from the west about 7:30 p.m. during mid-June of 2001....overunning at least a 10 mile front. The amazing manifestation which occurred, was the appearance of of large circular opening directly above our site. It was perfectly round in shape and was about one mile in diameter. The hole was clear of ALL cloud structures.....and did NOT move in concert with the weather front. In fact, it did not move AT ALL.. We were completely encircled by VERY heavy rain falling 360 degrees around us, but absolutely nothing was falling in the circle where we were situated. This condition prevailed for approximately 20 minutes, until the front had passed beyond us. Fascinatingly, the circle maintained its geometric integrity until the last edge of the front passed.
The circle did fade away progressively; as the front moved beyond us the circular area around us maintained its integrity and disappeared by degrees, horizontally, as the trailing edge of the weather front moved past our location.
I have no explanation of how this phenomenom was brought to manifestation, nor any comment on its possible physics/mechanics. Our researcher was able to repeat this phenomenon....at other locations.....on several other occasions.....the only variation being that on two occurences-----the aerial geometry was not circular, but somewhat pyramidal in appearance.
This posting is made as a matter of possible interest and not to formulate any claim or explanation of the observed phenomena.
Sincerely, Brooks Bradley..."

Why do people bother to tell these silly stories?

Take the cloudbuster over to the JREF and apply for the million dollar prize.

If it can do what is described above, the million bucks is in the bag.

"...This posting is made as a matter of possible interest and not to formulate any claim or explanation of the observed phenomena..."---Brooks Bradley
You sure it meets their criteria?
"...At JREF, we offer a one-million-dollar prize to anyone who can show, under proper observing conditions, evidence of any paranormal, supernatural, or occult power or event..."

"Cloudbusters" use crystals embedded in a tube to accomplish their "clearing." That's probably close enuff to supernatural to qualify for the JREF.

One Cloudbuster site used to (and may still) have a warning about the great powers of the device. Some guy built a large one, accidently got his leg in front of it, and suffered permanent damge!

Hmmh---Brooks is approaching 90, so I doubt he has any interest in pursuing Randi's challenge at this point in time, but perhaps one of his associates may. Am forwarding Randi's site info to him for a response.
Any insight to JREF's "...Although we no longer test claims involving "cloudbusting"...?

Ummm... "He said that paid over $500 for a plastic box which contained some dials and mostly metal shavings and epoxy resin."

Sorry, but it appears he's been fleeced.

As for this:

http://www.educate-yourself.org/ct/g...s10jan02.shtml

I appeard the principle ingredient is a high-tech polymer best known for it's ability to replace shoe leather...

That had to have been some incredibly precise and accurate measuring equipment they were using to have determined that the "circular opening" was perfectly round.

One can always tell when one is dealing with non-technical, non-scientific people. Such folks quite often start tossing out words such as "perfectly" and "exact", revealing they have no knowledge of metrology, statistics, or engineering in general.
