He claims to be in contact with 'interdimensional aliens' that use this portal to gain entrance into our (3rd) dimension. He provides stunning photographic evidence for his claims, including a 'rept- ilian being sticking it's head out of it's light body.' Other pix include the Jersey Devil, demons, angels, robed grey aliens, a dinosaur-type crit- ter, orbships, much more: http://zsurfingtheapocalypse.com/endor1.html @ SOUTH AFRICA WEIRD VORTEX: http://www.farshore.force9.co.uk/savortex.htm # IS 'MONSTER' CHILD PART E.T.? http://cosmiverse.com/paranormal040701.html @ Toltec God, Man of War: http://www.usnews.com/usnews/issue/990816/maya.htm : Have you photographed a vortex lately? Did you fall in, fly out, get hot??

Were you almost devoured by skeptical lions, trampled by Papal bulls, swept away by floods of reason? Were you only saved by Faith? Is she cute? Is science irrelevant? Are you? # Plants of the Bible. You've heard of victory gardens, organic gardens and herb gardens. Now "Bible gardens" — gardens filled with plants found in the Bible — have taken root as a U.S. fad. Holy hot-house, Batman! http://www.deseretnews.com/dn/view/0,1249,155015956,00.html _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ # "Ecofascism: Lessons from the German Experience." Important tendencies in German 'ecologism,' with deep roots in 19th-century nature mysticism, fed into the rise of Nazism in the 20th century. During the Third Reich, Nazi 'ecologists' even made organic farming, vegetarianism, nature worship, and related themes into key elements not only in their ideology but in their govt policies. And Nazi eco-ideology was used to justify the destruction of European Jewry. Yet some themes that Nazi ideologists articulated bear an uncomfortably close resemblance to current ecologically thought. http://spunk.etext.org/texts/places/germany/sp001630/ecofasc.html # DESERT SCOURGE: Tourists are destroying prehistoric sites in Egypt; Sphinx is ground to a stub: http://www.newscientist.com/news/news_223329.html : Have you destroyed any cultures/peoples/artifacts/histories lately?
