Linda Moulton Howe published on her website excerpts from a report about burns on a bedsheet given to her as evidence of an alleged alien abduction in Brazil. The scientist who made this report, Phyllis Budinger, offers this statement about the use made of her report. She does not feel that her opinion of the marks she analyzed was presented in a manner that represented it accurately.

On 6/6/2003 Earthfiles.com presented a 4-part report on the scientific analysis of samples resulting from the controversial Corguinho, Brazil purported abduction. I spent considerable time analyzing samples from this event. Clearly, the Earthfiles report necessitates a response from myself.

Monkey Pox is an African disease, like Ebolaso why is it turning up here Henry Willis reports that U.S. Midwestern prairie dogs have the Monkey Pox virus, and the disease has recently been transmitted to humans.

Monkey Pox is indistinguishable from, and is related to, Small Pox, but it is a somewhat less virulent version of the virus. While Small Pox is a Class 5 virus, the Monkey Pox virus falls somewhere between a Class 3 and Class 4 virus. It has a 10% to 15% fatality rate, which rates it as a serious health concern.

Monkey Pox is a childhood disease of central Africa. It is contracted by contact with infected monkeys and ground squirrels, and it is spread among humans through poor sanitation, poor hygiene, and poor drinking water.

The tornadoes of May 2003 have come, but they are not gone. During the first two weeks of May there were almost 500 tornadoes. This is a record that will be broken year after year as Earths climate continues to warm. This brings on a question. If global warming can cause so many tornadoes, what kind of weather can be expected for the remainder of the summer

The first two weeks of May this year saw the largest cluster of tornadoes in the Midwestern U.S. since record keeping began in 1950. In a ten day period of time, 465 tornadoes touched ground. There is a clear explanation for why this happened. However, the implications of that explanation lead to some serious conclusions.

More tornadoes occur in the Midwestern U.S. than anywhere else in the world. The reason for this is the unique geographic features that border on this region. Cold, dry air flows eastward from the Rockie Mountains until it hits the warm, moist air flowing northward from the Gulf of Mexico. The area where these two air masses come together in the Midwest is known as “Tornado Alley.”
