Hey,
|

|
||
Welcome to another fine example of Activist Times Zine.
|
||
Well, of course that's just my opinion but the rules
|
||
of advertising say you must remain 100% cocky at all
|
||
times. :P
|
||
Wait, you mean I don't have to advertise? Great!!!
|
||
|
||
OK.

Boyee,
|

I'm behind on my zine again. Just been really busy! I'm trying
|

to learn LINUX and Cool Edit Pro in addition to all the other
|
||
things I normally do per day. Yikes!
|
||
I just put my Bush protest story up to Indy. Lede was that he's
|
||
getting protested everywhere he goes. Everywhere.
|
||
OK, one last thought, and I'm "outie."
|
||
You'll know your tail is prior service or active duty when he
|
||
coughs into his elbow. I don't konw anywhere else besides the
|
||
U.S. military where THAT is taught, do you?
|
||

Pax Romana
|
||
|
||
During the campaign season in the Fall of 2000 I was a staff
|
||
columnist with the student newspaper at the University of
|
||
Texas at Austin, the Daily Texan. I had a few columns
|
||
published, but most were rejected because they implied
|
||
the government should have something other than a political
|
||
conscience. Journalists have their in house rules to publish
|
||
only the facts, and they resent the fact that these rules are
|
||
superceded by another requirement: the facts they publish must
|
||
be scientifically correct. Theoretically, every major newspaper
|
||
should have all their stories vetted by a qualified professional
|
||
- and journalists per se do not qualify in this capacity.
|
||
I had several long conversations with Victoria Hsu, the
|
||
Executive Director of the Professional Engineer's Licensing
|
||
Board here in Texas. As a P.E. myself, I was concerned about
|
||
how my columns might be interpreted. What Ms. Hsu told me could
|
||
very well change the way the media operates.
|
||
Simply put, it is unlawful for anybody, anywhere to misrepresent
|
||
the facts to the public. The P.E. Board is responsible for
|
||
enforcing this law (and every state has a similar Board, enforcing
|
||
similar rules), and violators don't have to be engineers. Anybody
|
||
who misrepresents the facts to the public is liable, for penalties
|
||
up to and including hard time.
|
||
Consider an example. I had one column on gun control that
|
||
described how hand guns could be made safe. I literally designed
|
||
a new handgun using a few paragraphs of carefully chosen words.
|
||
If anybody other than a P.E. had done this it would be "designing
|
||
without a license" and punishable as such.
|
||
In other words, journalists can present facts; but only licensed
|
||
Professional Engineers can make inferences from those facts.
|
||
Consider another example. The FCC shut down a couple of low power
|
||
radio stations here in Austin last year because they were critical
|
||
of a big Fortune 500 conference in town. The authorities said they
|
||
were illegal because they had no license. However, their power was
|
||
so low that their signal did not go beyond the city limits, and the
|
||
FCC rules apply only to stations with a signal much stronger than
|
||
that. The authorities who shut down these stations were misrepresenting
|
||
the facts, and are technically liable for this to the Texas P.E. Board.
|
||
From my conversations with Ms. Hsu, I have no doubt the Board would
|
||
prosecute this case aggressively if one of those radio stations were
|
||
to present their case to the Board.
|
||
A few more examples: The President has implied that Global Warming
|
||
is not a problem. The Administration, in promoting only drilling in
|
||
Alaska as a solution to our energy problem, has implied that energy
|
||
conservation is not a viable technology. Both instances are patently
|
||
incorrect. The President, as a legal resident of Texas, could be held
|
||
liable for "designing without a license" and for misrepresenting the
|
||
facts to the general public. The President can say whatever he wants
|
||
about public policy. However, when it comes to engineering and
|
||
technology, what he says must be factual. It must be clear,
|
||
unambiguous, and not subject to any interpretation so as to
|
||
mislead the public. He cannot say one thing, while actually
|
||
implying something else between the lines - not if what he
|
||
says is technical.
|
||
That goes for everybody else as well -
|
||
Especially politicians.

Hi there,

I was just writing to tell you that I saw your ad

the type of person that looks for opportunity just
|

as I do.

unless your mall can get me Tom's of Maine tooth

ATI received more than 11 offers this week, (count 'em

12) to transfer amounts as high as $28,600,000:00 (TWENTY-
|

EIGHT MILLION SIX HUNDRED THOUSAND U.S. DOLLARS) beating a
|
||
record from a couple months ago of 5.

The storm before the calm perhaps???

||
& NOTE RHYMES WITH QUOTE:
|
||
|
||
"Perhaps that is because while they [Europe] built their wealth
|
||
on colonial slavery, they never worked as hard as the United
|
||
States to systematically disunite and oppress millions of black
|
||
people - for a century after slavery - within their own borders."

& NOW A GNN LOOK AT COKE AND THE CIA.
|
||
|
||
It was during one of those late nights that Kolody first met
|
||
a powerful businessman who, through his own intricate past,
|
||
had developed strong ties to the intelligence community.
|
||
This person was our aforementioned Tennessee contact.
|
||
As an accountant to Fortune 500 companies, he must
|
||
remain nameless in order to protect his current business
|
||
practice.
|
||
For our purposes we<77>ll call him Echelon.
|
||
<EFBFBD>
|
||
Echelon
|
||
|
||
Echelon studied the facts of the case and, seeing the potential
|
||
damage that a massive fraud and copyright infringement suit could
|
||
pose to Coke<6B>s bottom line, decided to help Kolody get to the next
|
||
level.
|
||
He began by warning Kolody that he was not dealing with a
|
||
regular corporation. Kolody begged for elaboration. In a long
|
||
and detailed explanation Echelon broke down the facts of Coke<6B>s
|
||
links to the CIA and its historical role as a global front for
|
||
the U.S. intelligence community. It was this topic that had so
|
||
fascinated me upon my first meeting with him and one that I will
|
||
touch upon briefly before getting back to Kolody.
|
||
Throughout the late 1950<35>s and early 60<36>s the CIA began expanding
|
||
its operations. In order to effectively fight the Cold War on a
|
||
global scale, it needed to establish bases in every major country.
|
||
This meant that agents would need a plausible cover in order to
|
||
penetrate the borders of international frontiers. They couldn<64>t
|
||
just show up with CIA stamped on their passport and foreign
|
||
governments were getting wise to the tricks the Company had
|
||
been employing to get their agents across borders. As a
|
||
solution to the problem the CIA was able to convince Coca-Cola,
|
||
one of the first truly globalized companies with product
|
||
distribution operations in virtually every corner of the
|
||
world, to be used as a cover for the U.S. intelligence agency.
