Kosovo Crisis: Day 19
 
"This is the very first time in American history that the United States of America has ever unleashed a major military attack against another country without there first having been something, be it however flimsy (Gulf of Tonkin incident), or major (Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor), by way of a provocation to indicate that we were being attacked or threatened.

How far will people go?
 
Last year American's spent over $27 billion on alternative medicine. Most scientists will not stand behind the claims of cures and treatment. Everyday our television screen is screaming X-files, Psychic abilities and EPS at us.

Countdown to Armageddon or Just Another Year ?
 
Today was the day that all the newly weds have tried to conveive. Seems it's that special day that may produce their offspring on the first day of year 2000. Is this such a good idea? Never mind that the day in question is not actulally the start of the new millenium, nor is it naturally a special date accoding to the laws of nature. Even so there is lots of interesting talk on what is going to happen on the turn of the year. Is this year the countdown to to Armageddon, or is the 1st of January y2k just a day of hell for computer operators. Make you own mind up !
