Hi all

Whilst sorting through my bookmarks, I came across this page which may put
a smile on some peoples faces.

http://www.nexusmagazine.com/ViolentWeather.html

Basically its focus is on the ability of a Jennifer Lawson to predict the
dates and locations of tropical cyclones based on the positions of the
planets. Apparently she was abled to accurately predict 3 out of 4
cyclones that formed in the Coral Sea this season, as well as 85% of
summer storms, TC Charlie in 1988 and TC Joy in 1990. It's said that she
also predicted the occurrence of hurricanes Gilbert, Hugo and Andrew in
the US.

As expected, she predicts major things occurring during this May because
of the planetary alignment involving Jupiter, Saturn, Mars and, slightly
further away, Mercury and Venus.  
I know that in the early 60's, (1962 perhaps) that there was a closer
alignment between the planets. However, I am unaware if anything
"spectacular" occurred weatherwise during this year. 

Anyway, just thought I'd mention this for those needing a laugh.  She also
has a book out entitled "VIOLENT WEATHER PREDICTIONS 2000-2001: Countdown
to Cataclysm". 

There are more "interesting" articles (not necessarily weather related) at
the home site of the above article
http://www.nexusmagazine.com/

Hi All.

This is to test if your Virus Defs alert you to this email containing the
name of the offending text vbs file.

"LOVE-LETTER-FOR-YOU.TXT.VBS"

If they do, they are working properly.

Regards,
Carl.

Hi Anthony

<snip>

The 'suspect' email contains the actual file name of the text vbs
attachment that transfers the virus.

Your Virus Defs are probably picking up on the presense of this name in the
email.

To test this theory, I am going to send a seperate email called 'Virus
follow up' to the list containing the offending file name to see if your
software picks it up - it is a good test of your anti-virus software
effectiveness, which SHOULD be designed to pick up the presence of the file
name in an email.

As no other reports of viruses from my other emails seem to have arisen, I
think this is the cause.

Of course, if ALL my emails are causing your Virus Defs to spin out, let me
know immediately, as that would mean I have a real problem to deal with!!!!

Regards,
Carl

I suppose if you make enough predictions you must get a couple of
coincidences.

How about --

A political coup in an African country. A sex scandal involving a prominent
politician, or fundamentalist Islamic uprising in the middle east.

Get the drift, some statements by their nature will nearly always score.

Michael,

You have made a mess of my little phone notepad!! But great you have moved 
and finally settled in. The details have been noted. I suppose your details 
will be updated in the ASWA archive.

Weather here in Sydney is cool although the sun is quite strong. Nice puffy 
cumulus with stratocumulus bases. Just a slight hint of a thin layer of 
instability although nothing much will happen except for a perhaps a 
coastal shower or two later - if that.

The net ALWAYS works in the country Michael :-)

Well, my provider has been really good anyway, probably something to do
with my very new phone lines (in house and to the pole) too.
