It did not mean 'strange' or 'weird.' Rather, it referred to a unique gnosis -- that is, knowledge which was to be revealed to the candidate for initiation." --From "Mastery of Life," a recruiting brochure published by the Rosicrucian Order -+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ Setting a Record Pace Are you people nuts? You're spending WAY too much time on those computers. ParaScope ended the year with a blistering amount of member activity, and we want to thank you for helping us set new records for November, December and what is looking to be a record January. America Online's new unlimited usage policy has generated what seems like unlimited access by our readers, making us one of the fastest-growing areas on the service. On the web, publicity from the Strange Universe TV show and our selection as a Netscape "Cool Site of the Day" has resulted in a similar surge in interest. To our new subscribers, readers, members and friends, we'd like to say hello, and thanks to all of you for making us one of the hottest spots in cyberspace! -+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ ParaScope on the Road to Ancient Egypt A few of us from ParaScope are taking a long-overdue road-trip right now, and this letter is coming to you, in fact, from a secret location high in the Sierra Nevada mountains. But we're not just goofing off while we hit the road, we're goofing off and learning something along the way. Look for details of our trips to the strange and mysterious Rosicrucian Park in San Jose, California and the stylish but spooky Luxor Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas. We'll take you behind the scenes of both of these Egyptian-themed attractions to let you know the inside secret of their mysterious symbology and occult inspirations. -+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ Coming Up Next Week! Catch all these stories next week daily on AOL or weekly every Thursday on the world-wide web. South Central Intelligence Agency If you missed it the first time, catch the latest update on CIA Director John Deutch's bizarre visit to South Central Los Angeles. Perhaps Deutch was expecting a softball press junket, but instead he got a ride in the Unwelcome Wagon as South Central residents grilled him on the extent of his agency's involvement in the influx of cocaine to the Los Angeles area. Get complete transcripts, screen captures and analysis in this comprehensive update of an explosive confrontation long overdue and well deserved. ---------------- The Xerox Spy In the wacky TV show "Get Smart," bumbling would-be spy Maxwell Smart used such improbable gadgets as the shoe-phone and the cone of silence to carry out his espionage. But even Maxwell Smart never thought of bugging a photocopier. But that's just what an American intelligence operative did while spying on the Russians. He snuck a spy camera into the Russkie's Xerox machine, where it snapped photos of every document they copied. Dossier editor Jon Elliston takes you inside this amazing spy story, showing you the documents themselves and telling you the wacky-but-true story of "the Xerox Spy." ---------------- Researchers Call Bullshit on Fake Alien The world of UFO research can be as serious as any legitimate scientific undertakings or as ridiculous as the carnival midway. A recent string of developments in the Israeli UFO community has more resembled the latter than the former. Self-proclaimed psychic spoon-bender Uri Geller claimed at a recent Israeli UFO conference that he was abducted by aliens as a child. Another speaker who claimed to have been given special powers by offworld visitors proclaimed that a cavalcade of saucers would gather over Tel Aviv on Jan. 5. (It didn't happen.) Finally, a sample of an alleged recovered alien body was analyzed by researchers who announced preliminary results revealing cow dung among the substances identified from the sample. ---------------- Occult Indoctrination: It's Cool! The mysterious and cryptic teachings of the ancient Egyptians have long been among the most closely guarded by those initiated into secret societies and clandestine cabals. Now, you too can get in on the wacky secrets, kooky occultism and scary symbology of the enlightened and illumined sages of ancient Egypt. Even better, you can pick whether you want the full text or the Cliff Notes version. The Rosicrucian Order in San Jose, Calif. offers an in-depth study course in the mysteries of ancient Egypt and Babylon. You can meditate in their private gardens, study in their private library, or linger among their ancient artifacts. Or, if you prefer the low-fat version, visit the Luxor Hotel and Casino (also the world's largest pyramid) in Las Vegas. Play craps, try a video game and undergo the first three levels of occult indoctrination in the casino's theme park! Occult indoctrination doesn't get any cooler than this. +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ Jane, Stop This Crazy Thing! Thought you were tough enough to handle the Dispatch and now you realize you're not?
