When you deliberately poison school kids and deliberately corrupt our society for the benefit of "elites," you will not be able to stop all the terrorists who will come.

Somehow I learned about a meeting the school district was going to have about the air at North Middle School. I must have misplaced some of my data; I cannot find the article I had referencing it. Perhaps I learned of the meeting another way. I went to Everett and began snooping around. Anyway, there was this meeting, see . . . ?

It was not a meeting described in the articles which I have referenced. (Hopefully, I'll find my material and fill in more later).

There was only one mother and father there. Husband and wife. The husband had tried to organize other parents whose children had become sick. He gave me one of his one page handouts. I gave him some of my material. He and his wife left in disgust a short time after the meeting began. I didn't blame them, it was disheartening to see what some of us have become.

I stayed. I had something I wanted to see and hear and try

The main purpose of the meeting was to introduce Marilyn Black, an air-quality consultant from Atlanta, Georgia. Ms. Black was introduced by some district official. There were a few other officials there and a few teachers.Probably not more than ten people in all. One of the teacher had been given a carbon dioxide tester to continually monitor the CO₂ level in her classroom. Every afternoon the level would exceed 1,200 (it may have been 1,500) parts per million, (ppm). This teacher and others who would speak attributed some problems to the carbon dioxide.

Ms. Black was there to steer the discussion away from carbon dioxide. In her view, this could not be the problem. There must be something else, and everything else would be evaluated first. Now, I would normally not have a problem waiting for all the data to be evaluated. But I did and still do in these situations. I smelled and still smell a rat!

First, Ms. Black (and others like her) contended that the dioxide could not possibly be the problem. I challenged her on this issue, but it is like dealing with a post. (Or, President Clinton - - - she also had no shame at being exposed. The weaknesses and inconsistencies in her position had absolutely no impact on her. It did not matter. Party line. Party line. Party line. Carbon dioxide is not toxic; at most, it is only an indicator. No shame. Anything goes). The arguments and explanations are all "rote." There are no variations allowed. Curious in a "free" society.

Second, Ms. Black was from Atlanta, Georgia. This may mean nothing to you, but speaking as someone who has seen the "evil tentacles" of the Centers for Disease Control, CDC, which is based in Atlanta, involved in and being a leading force in the promotion of carbon dioxide while covering up its damage, I can be very suspicious.

Of all the environmental experts in all of the the world, why does one from Atlanta have to walk into my gin-joint? Are there none qualified in Everett? In Seattle? In all of Washington State? Why bring one all the way from Atlanta?

When I got another chance to speak, I started quizzing Ms. Black about a connection with the CDC. I was getting nowhere and was ready to give up. Were these the carefully crafted responses of a lawyer or the ready responses of a technician? How I yearned for "the rack" and some thumbscrews and the freedom to employ them for awhile. Maybe my last question was broad enough; maybe she just waited too long before responding and realized that denial after such a pregnant pause wouldn't float; or maybe someone in the audience knew she had been recommended or referred by the CDC or some such, and to maintain credibility with them, she had to tell the truth. Whatever, I got an admission that sometimes her company sometimes got a call from the CDC informing them that there might be something worth investigating at such and such a place. I was so taken aback that I didn't even think to ask if that is what had happened in the North Middle School situation. Oh, well, win some; win some more later.

In my biased opinion, Ms. Black is an agent for the CDC. Perhaps not directly on the payroll but dependent upon the CDC for a portion of her income. She is basically a "trouble-shooter," a "containment" expert. Whether written or not, her directive might well be, "go out there and keep the lid on." Why? How did the CDC itself get wind of the situation? Who called the CDC? If not the CDC first, then who called Ms. Black . . . and why?

Well, I think this is enough for the first dose of the new year. Happy 2000! I'll dismiss you early today. No more school until next time when we will discuss the test results and conclusions of the "experts." Depressing to contemplate, but we can get through it.
