Read a very interesting article by Curt Hopkins [http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/author/curt-hopkins.php] regarding archaeoacoustics (a/k/a acoustic archaeology), an emerging field of science which seeks to understand how sound influenced a given culture. Even more fascinating is how we too can experience these sounds from the past. For more, Acoustic Archaeology? Meet the Web
Hopkins leaves us with a “take-away” thought, “What does it all mean? … What sounds will our descendants find us to have valued?”
An increasing number of electromagnetic radiation sources (WiFi, mobile phones, etc) could play a role in the deteriorating health of trees finds a Netherlands’ report conducted by Wageningen University and commissioned by the city of Alphen aan den Rijn [http://www.alphenaandenrijn.nl/]. Trees were exposed for more than three months to six sources of radiation [frequencies ranging from 2412 to 2472 MHz]. Leaves towards the radiation source during the study period showed a metallic luster appearance, a discoloration of the leaves that appeared to result in the disappearance of the outer cell layer of the leaves. This metallic luster was followed by desiccation and death of a portion of the leaf.

As December 31st approaches, so does the unleashing of the Trojan Horse we allowed into our homes. Our mass acceptance of content in high-definition format was the seduction. But as quickly as “HD” came to the forefront of the electronic age (and into our lives), so too will be the void as content providers start restricting our access to it. In “great conspiracy” deduction, there were a few events this year that led us to believe that the Illuminati, Bilderberg Group, Bohemian Club, Club of Rome, Council on Foreign Relations, Rhodes Trust, Skull and Bones, Trilateral Commission, Freemasons, Elders of Zion, (however you wish to identify the conspirators) were hard at work.

The jest of the expression meaning to tell me your purpose in speaking with me – then you may present whatever details you think necessary. This allows me to properly “tune in” and listen to details that are helpful to me in understanding. Even my recorded cell answering message ask callers to please NOT leave a message, but to call me at my office or send me a txt message.
