With this in mind, NEXUS seeks to provide "hard-to-get’ information so as to assist people through these changes. NEXUS is not linked to any religious, philosophical or political ideology or organisation. PERMISSION-TO-REPRODUCE POLICY. While reproduction and dissemination of the infor- mation in NEXUS is actively encouraged, anyone caught making a buck out of it, without our express permission, will be in trouble when we catch them! Editorial At the risk of sounding like a Gregorian imperialist, welcome officially to the year 2000! I must admit to a sense of relief at the minimal 'millennium bug' damage experienced around the planet—so far. But even as we go to print, I know of several small/medium- sized businesses which are having accounting glitches related to the date changeover. Was the hype and expenditure worth it? Will we hear of major Y2K-related problems emerging as the year progresses? I doubt the latter, mainly because insurance companies don't cover ‘millennium bug'-related problems. Meanwhile, it might pay to keep prepared for emergencies—should the weather predic- tions for this year prove to be correct. This issue contains an interview with Australian-born astrometeorologist Jennifer Lawson, author of Violent Weather Predictions 2000-2001 (see Reviews section). If her impressive forecasting track record continues for this year, then global storms, floods, earthquakes and volcanic eruptions will increase in both number and severity. Her book gives further details on what to expect in your part of the world. Those mysterious ‘chemtrails' are back in the news (as I write this, anyway). More and more Internet discussion lists and groups have been going 'off-topic' lately and complaining about planes flying back and forth overhead, leaving vapour trails which then cause every- one in the neighbourhood to get sick. The reports coming in from the USA and Canada are downright scary. An update from investigative journalist William Thomas is in the DeBriefings section this issue. Are the contrails linked to the massive ‘flu’ outbreaks in North America? I hope the mainstream media pick up on this important story very soon. I also notice on the Internet that the ‘reptilian’ debate is still raging. Are they for real? If yes, are they good, bad, or just plain ugly? Maybe, like the human species, there are nice, unpleasant and indifferent types? Few people I correspond with have ever heard of the Jim Sparks case, which we have included in this issue. Extracted from Linda Moulton Howe's excellent book, Glimpses of Other Realities — Vol. II, the Sparks case contains some fasci- nating gems, including the concept of an amnesty being granted to ‘those in power' so they can come clean on the UFO/suppressed technology issue. In the middle of last year I received a remarkable letter, with documentation, from a doc- tor whose 17-year-old son was recently cured of a giant cell tumour (cancer) of the left tibia by Gaston Naessens's 714X treatment. It's been six years since we last reported on Gaston Naessens, and I felt this letter was a good prompt to bring his discoveries and research to our expanded readership. This edition sees the start of yet another series concerning drug corruption in high places. Here, we learn of an imprisoned former Green Beret who is suing the CIA, George Bush (Sr) and others over their complicity in drug trafficking operations and cover-ups. Regular readers will note how Tyree's allegations closely match and even confirm those of many previous (now dead) whistleblowers. And speaking of prisoners, that letter last issue from Jerry, the prisoner in Texas serving 60 years for possession of one gram of cocaine, sparked many warm hearts. Unfortunately though, the Texas Department of Corrections refused to let most mailed items through, based on various bureaucratic ideologies. This prompted a rash of letters from readers who had their items returned to them with various form-letters. On the other side of the coin, our American office has experienced a veritable flood of scrawled notes from other prisoners wanting to get free magazines. Judging by the sheer volume of letters, there is one heck of a lot of prisoners who read and pass on their precious copy of NEXUS! Then, on top of all that, we received a couple of letters—like the one from Chris this issue, complaining that we are soft on criminals and that he might consider committing a minor offence just to get a free subscription. So to be clear, we do not give free subscriptions to all or any prisoners. We have been sending a couple of dozen freebies per issue to selected prisoners, usually whistleblowers, for the past seven or eight years. We may add a few more to the list, but that will be all. Finally, I would like to take this opportunity to announce the date of our annual NEXUS Conference. Get your diary out now and write it in: 20-21 May. It's at the Gazebo Hotel in Elizabeth Bay, Sydney. At this stage, speakers include Bruce Moen, David Morehouse, Cathy O'Brien and more. Contact your nearest NEXUS office for details, or Australian readers can check out the speaker details in the advertisement (p. 10) this issue. Danson USA OFFICE - 2940 E.
