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 information 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! Wi greetings, and welcome to this latest issue of NEXUS. I'm writing this editorial several days after my declared deadline due to an unrelenting string of obstacles and interruptions. No, I'm not referring to sinister conspiratorial stuff by shadowy agencies or the like; I'm talking about more mundane things like a toothache, a computer meltdown and so on. Nothing went as planned this time, but we managed to get through it. The disruptions in my normally smooth work routine made me think about making a few changes and improvements. So I've decided that, starting from the next issue, we'll have a new-look cover and we'll enlarge the size of the text considerably. There may be other surprises, too; we'll see. After that, we'll be putting the magazine online, with any colour images retained in colour, and readers will be able to subscribe to the digital version and/or the print version if they wish. Also, I'm in discussion to set up a NEXUS forum online in the near future. There's no getting away from the fact that people who wish to be really well informed are spending much more of their time on the Internet. So, getting back to the present, and it's mid-May as I write, I want to highlight some concerns ahead of mentioning something about the articles this issue. First up, many people believe that the recent, tragic, 7.9-Richter-scale earthquake in China is just the first of more major quakes to come. Readers have asked for more information about my comment on a letter in vol. 15, no. 2, where I mentioned a vision passed on to me of an earthquake of magnitude 9.9 on the Richter scale occurring around late June 2008. More recently, I've been repeatedly asked whether the 7.9 in China is the one in the prediction. I cannot reveal the source, but I do have permission to pass on the following. The prediction specifically places the epicentre of this 9.9 M earthquake off the coast of China. In this person's vision, the megaquake triggers a tsunami which races inland into China, causing unimaginable damage—as well as the cancellation of the Olympic Games—and also seriously affects Japan, Taiwan and the entire Pacific Basin. The person who told me about this vision is adamant that the destructive 7.9 earthquake in China is not the one in his vision. Make of this what you will, but, as you can guess, I wouldn't waste your time on this unless I had good reason to take it on board myself. A few weeks ago, and by sheer coincidence, Ken Dickman, an Australian researching the link between Earth changes and solar—planetary angular relationships (not astrology), contacted me with his concerns for early June 2008. He said that, according to his forecasting method, "something big could occur then". We've updated his original 2006 published paper with his new information. We feel compelled to pass this on, although this window will have passed by the time this edition gets to our North American readers. More and more people are waking up to the fact that the body's fluids and tissues are naturally on the alkaline side of the pH scale, and that it's desirable to keep them that way. So what are we to make of the adverts for products advocating the ingestion of alkalised or alkaline water? Many health researchers are wondering whether this is just slick marketing propaganda based on questionable science. Finally, thanks to Jan Roberts, we have an article that asks the same questions—and answers them. Another controversial health product is colloidal silver. To be clear, there are many different products on the market that go under the name of colloidal silver. Some of them work, some of them don't, and some of them are actually harmful. To top things off, there's the suggestion that the presence of silver ions causes the body to make its own stem cells! Check out the article in these pages, but be prepared to do more research, as we are doing. Before I sign off, here's a reminder about our forthcoming NEXUS Conference on 4-5-6 October on the beautiful Sunshine Coast, Queensland, Australia. Among the many speakers will be: Leonid Sharashkin, PhD, editor of the English-language version of the extremely popular Ringing Cedars series; Dr Harry Oldfield, who has hot new information to update us on from his presentations last year; Bill Ryan and Kerry Cassidy of Project Camelot, who have intriguing behind-the-scenes disclosures to pass on; plus many more. There'll also be a showing of the famed Mitchell-Hedges Crystal Skull (see Philip Coppens's article this edition). We hope to see some of you there.
