Mythology talks of Atlantis and Lemuria and of course many ref­ erences to UFOs. With all these things going on, surely out ancestors knew of the existence of Australia, but apart from the aborigines did anyone II else ever settle here? Does aboriginal mythology mention other cult.YIe_s? Has evidence been found and suppressed? If no other cultures ever lived here, then why not? I kpow !bat the usual argument is that the aboriginals caine via the S.B. Asian land-bridge, possi­ bly from India, and then when the bridge disappeared they were cut off and isolated. But it' mythology is correct and vast civilised and advanj:ed peo­ ples did live millennia ago, why did they never settle in Australia?

Many of ,the books that I see ~isted within the pages of Nexus are titles that are simply not held by any of our regional (govern~ ment run) libraries, and with the country's current frnancial state I simply can't afford to purchase as many as I'd like to. Do you know of any alternative libraries anywhere? Maybe a good idea would be to get one started so that more folks could gain access to all of this informa­ tion with less "hip pocket pain". Anyway, that's more food for thought I'm looking forward to lots of winter reading. Rae. Trice, Lilydale. Victoria. Dear Rae, Thanks for such an enthusiastic letter. Unfortunately I do no know of any such library, but I can sugges~ you try the Sydney Esoteric Bookshop. who also sell these type of books sec­ ondhand. Ed) RE: FLUORIDE ALLERGY Dear Duncan, It's time Lshared some data about fluoridation which I haven't seen in the litera­ ture. I fIrst became interested in the subject when my wife reacted vio­ lently to fluoride toothpaste.

I immediately started looking for data about fluoridation and it's history. I eventually found out about Oscar Ewing an_d the ALCOA farce, but one other story was most interesting.

K-eep up lhe good work. G. B. Appiecross. WA. RE: OFFENDING ABORIGI· NALS Dear Mr. Roads, I have just fin­ ished reading Rex Gilroy's article "Ancient Chinese in Australia," in which Gilroy asks if it was Collllnbus or the Chinese who dis­ covered America, and whether it was Cook, the Dutch or the II Chinese who discovc-red Australia. May [ ask, Mr. Roads, who dis­ covered Europe? Who discovered Asia? Of course you can't answer, for humans have lived on these continents for so many years. But the same goes for America and Australia, where humans have lived for aroond­ 50,000 years. By claiming that th-ese continents were "discov­ ered" in recent times by Asians or Europeans, Gilroy suggests that no humans were living on these continents. that I could not attend the Cathie/Deyo Conference.
