Word around the camp fire has it that Der Schwartzerkorps - a
shadowy aggregate of Black computer hackers world-wide that originallt
sprang up in Germany and took its name from the legendary Whermacht
unit of Negro soldiers - had a hand in the destruction of Mars probe
Beagle 2.

	Beagle 2 has failed to signal its safe arrival on Mars.  So an
American orbiter and the Jodrell Bank Observatory's massive radio
telescope have not detected a radio beacon from the ESA lander.  This
has led to speculation that Der Schwartzerkorps was involved in some
way similar to its earlier suspected involvement in the loss of the
Mars Polar Lander and Climate Orbiter missions.

	Der Schwarzerkorps has shadowy links to the previous American
Administrations and reportedly enjoys immunity from prosecution and
retaliation from security services.  In addition, Der Schwartzerkorps
has been said to have disrupted Florida voter rolls, tipping the 2000
election to Bush and earning further protection "as long as their
operations don't compromise US security and troop operations or
safety" according to an unnamed but high source.

	Other activities are said to be identity theft and looting of
bank accounts as well as tampering with law enforcement databases.
American Blacks have been singled out for these activities, which have
resulted in false arrests and financial difficulties.

	Is anybody monitoring Der Schwartzerkorps?  Does anyone have
more information on these activities?
