LOW POWER FM STATIONS
BUILDING COMMUNITY WHERE YOU LIVE

We'll be looking for folks to live and
work with us in our new home if we move to
Florida, but we also want to help folks in
other cities start their own low power FM
station to organize a supportive community
where they are. Cost is well under $1,000.
You need no FCC license because a federal
judge has found that our right to free
speech precludes the government from stop-
ping such stations as long as they cause
no interference or illegal activity. We've
developed a fine transmitter ready to go.
We could set up a dozen stations in 6
months and show others how to do it also.

The process is very simple. We can
bring a kit to your location and show you
how it operates. You need no electronics
background. See photo on page one above
Abe Lincoln's message. This unit has good
audio control built in. With your own
station you can wrest the airwaves from
corporate radio and put the local kids on
the air. I enjoy asking them for their
vision of the future - the world they'd
like to create and we can talk about how
to do it. We learn to make good tapes of
those conversations and then pass the word
to all the neighbors to hear their kids on
the FM dial. The sound quality is great!

In time, others will want to share on
air and you can organize meetings and pot-
lucks and with visits to successful commu-
nities in other areas, might be able to
build your community right where you are.

FACING A POSITIVE FUTURE

Long run, our future looks bright !
But today, and for the next 20 years,
perhaps, we're heading for real trouble
unless people rise up, like those students
in low income area schools, and decide to
make a difference. We don't have to accept
failure and corruption indefinitely. Great
possibilities await us. See below for
amazing energy discoveries that could
change the physical world, but may not
unless the people rise up and demand it.


WHO STOLE AMERICA ?

The Phila. Inquirer had a long series
called: "Who Stole the Dream", but I saw a
wordy whitewash. We're in denial. We're
avoiding real issues like who's really in
control ?

Now the Iquirer says that LBJ opposed
the V/N war right from the start, but was
forced into it, fearing impeachment if he
did not go along ! So, then who had such
power over the president ? Was it the same
ones who'd just killed JFK ? And what
kind of man was LBJ to let millions die to
avoid impeachment ? Why didn't the paper
tell the truth 30 years ago ? And if they
concealed the truth then, are they telling
all now ? Who controls Clinton ?

This month I've spent a lot of time on
the Internet where truth is more likely.
Rumor has it "they" are worried about all
that info. getting out. They can't totally
control the internet so they are looking
for ways to make it expensive, like per
minute phone charges for every provider,
passed on, of course to users. Thousands
are writing in protest, but if phone
companies really do that, we'll have to
find more creative ways to resist.


FREE E-MAIL AND INTERNET ACCESS

Even if rates rise, our e-mail can be
free. If you have a computer that can run
Windows 3.1 or higher, you can use Juno's
free e-mail. Call 800-654-J U N O. If you
don't want to wait weeks for the disk, you
can get it from Aquarian for any donation.
We're using Juno also. Copies are legal.

I'm not yet sure if this works with
Juno, but here's a way to reach the entire
internet via e-mail, something very impor-
tant for folks in countries like Cuba who
have e-mail only. For complete detailed
instructions for free send E-mail to:
mail-server@rtfm.mit.edu
You leave the subject line blank (or
use XXX) and in the body of your note put
these instructions exactly:

send usenet/news.answers/internet-services
/access-via-email
No spaces except after "send" and put
whole message on one line. Expect a 60
K.B. instructional document.


AMAZING ENERGY DISCOVERIES

(From: Ron Baalke at Jet Propulsion
Laboratory, Pasadena, CA. For more info.
contact John Watson (818) 354-5011.)

A new safe, compact, light, efficient,
non-polluting JPL-USC methanol fuel cell
shows promise for zero-emission vehicles.

A revolutionary design for a cool-pro-
cess, zero-emission methanol fuel cell
just patented by Caltech's Jet Propulsion
Laboratory and the University of Southern
California is already under fast-track
development for a wide range of uses. ****

In one major project, developers
believe they can create a unit about the
size of a thick paperback book that can
run continuously for weeks at a time,
producing 50 watts of power, consuming
about a pint of methanol fuel per day, and
emitting only water and carbon dioxide.
Larger units can run cars and if the
electricity produced charges a battery for
high use times, very little power is need-
ed for a vehicle. Of course, development

is funded by a defense agency, part of
corporate America and the oil industry, so
recall Lincoln's words on page one.


EVEN PURER ENERGY SOURCE



Scientists recently found bacteria
that live near hot springs on the sea bot-
tom which produce pure hydrogen from sugar
and have been able to isolate the enzymes
that do it. Michael Danson, biochemist at
the University of Bath, England said the
process can also use simple cellulose -
the basic component of plants. Jonathon
Woodward, an expert in enzymes at ORNL,
run by Lockheed Martin Energy Research
Corp. for U.S. Dept. of Energy is: "aiming
to generate hydrogen as a vehicle fuel."

Lockheed Martin is our major defense
contractor. When will the people get that
technology ? But, wait, there's more:


AMAZING HYDROGEN STORAGE SYSTEM


by Stephen Hill

HYDROGEN-POWERED cars could travel up
to 5,000 miles on a single tank of gas
thanks to a graphite storage material
developed by researchers at Northeastern
University in Boston, Massachusetts. Nelly
Rodriguez and her team claim that their
graphite nanofibres can store up to three
times their own weight in hydrogen under
pressure at room temperature - more than
10 times more than current storage media.
The nanofibres, packed into cartridges,
could be exchanged and re-filled. The car
would use hydrogen fuel cells for electric
operation. Info? E-mail .
Excerpted from New Scientist, 12/21/96

These discoveries show that a new era
of low cost energy is possible, but the
research, done with tax dollars benefits
the defense industry, not us. Can we trust
that those people have our interest at
heart? E-Mail me for HYDROGEN.CAR -Art


MASSIVE GOVERNMENT FRAUD


From other internet sources we learn
of massive deception in high places, just
as Lincoln feared. I wanted it all in this
newsletter, but it's too long and for Judy
much too negative. is our
new E-dress. Use document names as given,
and any donation would be appreciated. For
documents by post, please send at least $5
for each order as it takes much more time.

Some examples of government fraud
found on the internet include:

WACO - THE RULES OF ENGAGEMENT is a new
3 hr. film proving beyond any doubt that
government agents intended to kill those
people. All the info. was there for con-
gressional investigators who chose to ig-
nore it. The film was shown at the Sun-
Dance film festival but media won't show
it. Ask for WACO-FLM .

TWA FLIGHT 800: Massive evidence shows the
plane was shot down by a missile as Pierre
Salinger declared. Interviewed TWA pilots
say they know it, but 100 or so military
personnel who saw it have been silenced.
You can get the documents E-mail by asking
me for TWA-800.MSL & TWA-800.M-2 proving
the missile theory. Ask for TWA-800.PIL
for the report of pilot interviews.

OKLAHOMA CITY: DAY ONE is a new book by
Michelle Moore. She was there and recorded
everything that happened in great detail,
showing up massive fraud. For a book re-
view by E-mail ask for doc. OK-CITY.REV .


BOOK REVIEW - (Sort of - by Art)

DEATH BLOSSOMS by Mumia Abu-Jamal, his la-
test book published by the Bruderhof Com-
munitys' Plough Publishing (800) 521-8011,
is a series of short essays about prison
life. I have room to quote only one:

"Nintey-five percent of the guards
I've met are doing their job simply
because they need the money. Like cops and
sheriffs, they are men, human beings, and
their central concerns, needs and fears
are the same as anyone else's - they need
to pay rent, put bread on the table, pro-
vide an education for their children. But
they have become part of the system be-
cause of their fear, they have bought into
it because it is built on fear. Remember,
the SYSTEM is not a true reality, but an
idea which can be fought and dismantled.
People forget that we don't need the
system or the accessories we mistakenly
assume are essential for living. We need
only the things God gave us: love, family,
nature. We must transform the system.
That's the challenge. It's do-able, but
only if we ourselves do it."

The Bruderhof challenges: "Mumia Abu-
Jamal is on death row: ... Where are you ?

Corporations, as Lincoln said, may de-
stroy our nation. Is it any wonder they
want to limit the internet to the rich by
making it costly ? See page 8, a letter to
the Inquirer about the way the State and
Temple U.'s WRTI do it. Any wonder folks
plan to sabotage WRTI's April fundraiser ?


LETTER TO THE EDITOR, PHILA. INQUIRER
March 1, 1997

"A VOICE FROM INSIDE PRISON IS ONE PEOPLE
SHOULD HEAR" was the title of the
following article in the Philadelphia
Inquirer, 3/1/97. I printed it with the
photo of Mumia Abu-Jamal's face on the
side of a building as a police car passes
by. The photo was cleverly taken from
across the street behind an iron fence so
the whole scene, car and prisoner are
shown behind the bars. The Inquirer
provided the photo. The large face of
Mumia was painted on the wall by members
of the "Declaration of Independence Co-
signers Convention", an organization head-
ed by James Bevel, a close associate of
Martin Luther King. Here's the letter that
appeared in the paper:

The prison population of this country is
at an all-time high with more than 1.5
million inmates in federal, state, and
county jails. Prisons are being built so
rapidly that for the first time last year
our nation spent more money creating mew
cells than building new college
classrooms.
Certainly if one issue deserves all-
sided public debate, it is the direction
of crime and punishment in America.
That is what makes so astounding the
decision of the administration of Temple
University on Feb. 24 to cancel from its
campus radio station programming, a
national daily political news show,
DEMOCRACY NOW on which I serve as a co-
host.
That abrupt decision came the very
morning that our show began broadcasting a
two-week string of commentaries by Mumia
Abu-Jamal, who is on Pennsylvania's death
row for the 1981 murder of Philadelphia
Police Officer Daniel Faulkner.
Temple's decision knocked Democracy
Now off 11 other radio stations in Penn-
sylvania, South Jersey and Deleware for
which WRTI serves as a feeder station. The
decision came despite Democracy Now being
one of WRTI's most popular shows, as
repeatedly demonstrated by the amount of
pledge money the show raised during WRTI
fund drives among listeners.
But more important than economics is
the chilling message of press censorship
and academic thought control at one of
Pennsylvania's top universities.
George Ingram, Temple's associate vice
president for university relations, said
in a letter to Pacifica Radio, which
produced Democracy Now, that "The cancel-
lation ... has been under consideration
for some time. Quite frankly, the decision
was accelerated by news that Democracy
Now" would air the Mumia Abu-Jamal radio
commentaries that National Public Radio
rejected in 1994."
Three years ago, NPR canceled a
similar, though not the same Abu-Jamal
essays after intense last-minute pressure
from the national Fraternal Order of
Police.
There is no need here to re-hash Abu-
Jamal's guilt or innocence. But Abu-Jamal
has become the best-known death-row
prisoner in America. He is also among the
most eloquent inmate spokesmen alive
today.
To those of us who have heard the mad
ravings of a Charles Mansion on network
television, or the prime-time exposure
granted a statuatory rapist like Long
Island's Joey Buttafuoco, or the radio
shows of Watergate convict G. Gordon
Liddy, the frenzy to imprison Abu-Jamal's
thoughts seems extraordinary.
