NEXUS follow-ups UPDATE ON SUBLIMINAL ADVERTISING Dear Duncan, After discussing the article on sub liminal advertising in Nexus Volume 2, Number 7, one of the guys at work indicated that he had a photo from an insecticide advertisement on television taken around 1980-1981. Enclosed is a copy of that photo graph. He was experimenting at the time with his camera and tonk a few shots of the TV. This picture was taken during an (unknown) insecticide advertisement, and he was totally unaware of the pres cence of the giant insect. He did mention that the picture of the baby was just faded in from a previoos scene in which there were also no giant flies, but there may have been some smaIl flies. The picture takes up the entire screen. The advertisement was played quite frequently at that time and there was definitely no conscious re.cognition of a large blowie having a kip on a baby having a kip. I hope this will be of some interest (Name withheld on request) I[See picture below] BRUCI CATHIE'S GRIDWORKS PROGRAMME Earth grid systems are being di$cussed more and more. The popular Becker-I-Iagens Grid system, as illustrated on page 31, is based on the concept of the Eanh being a huge crystal, specifically a dodecahedron intersecting an icosahedron. However, one of the pion~ re~arcllen into grids ~ Capt. Bruce Cathie (Ret.). Readers of ~ several booJa; will have noted his progress and discoveries, and will have probably spent ,time trying to calculate different 'grid points' of their own. Now, however, this has been made easy. In a mastetpiece of computer software, com· bined with easy-to-understand graphics, a computer programme has been released that will make grid researchers weak at the knees. Bruce Cathie discovered that the grid lines in the primary grid system were spaced at inter vals of 7.5 minutes of arc north-south, and east-west. We programmed Gridworks to print out ,the primary ,grid points in Australia, based on intervllls lof 7.5 degrees of an;. We would like to encourage readers to investigate and report to NE)[US anything of interest· such as unusual or unexplained phenomena, secret govern ment bases, etc. For example, it would appear that one point falls on or very near Canberra; maybe someone can ohtaina more detailed map, or use a Global Positioning System, and let us know what they find.
