On the ancient television programme, The X-Files, a pair of FBI agents went around solving crimes, busting bad guys and… yeah, something about aliens. Remember how high-tech they looked because they had flip-phones? Anyhow. The basic premise was that the two of them investigated all of those “X-Files” that didn’t fall into the [...]

"T'Pol and Archer? Impossible!"
I was struggling last night to do some simple account maintenance on Facebook. I even — horror of horrors — resorted to asking the “Help” files for assistance, which is, as we know, usually about as productive as bashing your head against the keyboard. Sure enough, it proved to [...]

Contrails, or condensation trails, are “streaks of condensed water vapor created in the air by an airplane or rocket at high altitudes.”
Chemtrails, or chemical trails, are a massive intergovernmental conspiracy to disperse chemicals in the exhaust of airliners for population management and control.
This phenomena is not restricted to the [...]

Fashion hasn't improved for the Secret Societies in a very long time.
A staple of science fiction — and fantasy, and action flicks, and even plain old fiction — has long been the presence of various secret societies and organizations which are quietly pulling the strings behind the scenes. Sometimes they’re intelligence organizations, [...]

After years of controversy and debate, all of our fears over WiFi and other microwave based wireless services have been put to rest, and the threat of our brains being turned to chocolate pudding is over. Just ask the people of New Denver, British Columbia. They successfully protested attempts to install a cellular tower in their community until the corporate overlords finally gave up and agreed that they were going to put in a tower anyway – but wouldn’t turn it up to super high crazy mode (the locals had that covered already).
But now we are faced with another source of threatening death rays, and many of us find them in our own homes. You may not even realize that your remote is also a source of deadly infrared radiation.

In the 1980′s, tariffs on sugar and an excess of unused by-product from the corn milling process prompted soft drink makers to switch to high fructose corn syrup. In the last decade, consumers have been pushing for a return to “normal” sugar – partially due to sugar being cheaper now, and corn [...]

I’ve heard countless conspiracy theories about amazing energy-related inventions snatched up by big corporations and buried. Rumor has it that someone right here in my home town of Buttcrack Nowhere invented some sort of fuel injector that would give the 1972 Chevy Land Yacht a fuel economy of around 150MPG. (There is a 79% [...]

Last night I went to see Independence Day 2 Battle: Los Angeles in an effort to disengage my brain for a couple of hours. I’m not saying the movie was bad, but mission accomplished. Light spoiler alert – the aliens are attacking because they use water for fuel and we’ve got lots of it.

Last Saturday an Atlas V lifted off from Launch Complex 41 at Cape Canaveral. Inside its fairing was a Boeing X-37B. The mini-space shuttle is surrounded in mystery, so this launch, and the previous launch, have sent conspiracy theorists all a-twitter. Continue reading The X-37B: America’s Secret Spaceplane
