Regarding "Rancho Santa Fe Suicides" - Latest First

I see eye. In my dialogs with IE /chornobyl nuclear matrix,nuclear incident connected with comet Halley,26,april,1986/ there is the state of ICI /suICIde/ 1,100,1 102 halflight abra= 204 or "darkening" of "voice of blood". Copmets are the superintelligence ICE, so some connection with HB and halflighting, flippering state of mand exist.\oxo.ura -- ura (shvaidak@yahoo.com ) 7/1/99 (#20)

Low Self Esteem I think we can all accept the notion that these people had low self esteems and needed a reason to live. A lot of people start believing in weird stuff cause they have too much time on their hands. -- Diaper (Diaper@iper.com ) 2/23/99 (#19)

What kind of computers were they using? (humor) If they were using a Mac Performa 575 they have an excuse for going crazy and killing themselves! No one has ever mentioned what computers they were using... I'd make a bet they had one just like mine! -- Karla Thomas (karla@mindless.com ) 7/8/97 (#18)

I just don't know what's goin' on!! I just wnat to know what was really going through those peoples brains at the time. I believe in UFO's and Aliens, but thinking you can make yourself one, stop, think, that is why the beings are here. It's there job. (Unless they really were aliens) Oooh, Scary. -- Nedrick the Jester 4/17/97 (#17)
