The hunger strike has been on for a little over two weeks now. It has definitely helped to draw attention to this very real problem. I have been in contact with people who do take this very seriously. It has been gratifying that I am generally not dismissed as nuts by people who are in any position to know anything about these matters. Somewhat alarmingly, mine does not seem to be an isolated case. With regard to some of the replies to my previous posts, it just shows again that a little knowledge is indeed a dangerous thing. (Surprise: I took psyc 101 too, long ago.) Looking out on the web you will find a lot of people with stories just like mine, and plenty of information and references on these new weapons that people would prefer to wish away. Use your educations to sort through a little of that, see if you can dismiss it all as delusion. (Try, say, "microwave harassment" as a starting keyword.) Flame if you feel the need. http://www.cs.virginia.edu/~alb http://www.cs.virginia.edu/~alb/whatTheyDid.html -- Allen L. Barker
