LETTER TO THE EDITOR

January 2008. I sent this letter around the U.S. in 08 to probably 010 and never heard anything so must have fallen on deaf ears.

TO ANYONE WHO CARES ABOUT OUR BEAUTIFUL EARTH. AND GILBERT KUIPERS, I AM NOT AFTER ANY FREE LUNCH BUT WOULD LIKE ALL OUR SPACE FANATICS TO LEAVE SPACE ALONE FOR SAY TWO YEARS AND THEN COMPARE EVERYTHING MR. KUIPERS TALKED ABOUT IN HIS PAID FOR LETTER .

First I would like to explain a bit about myself. I am a certified organic farmer, first year of certifying was 1991. I feel I have a great gift of discerning our weather. In fact I wrote a column for two years for the Valley City Times Record, Valley City, ND. From January 1999 to December 2000. Titled WEATHER BY MILO. Gust once a month)

I could predict our weather by following the rocketing of Russia and the U. S., if the U. S. rocketed we'd get in a cooler and wetter period. If Russia rocketed we'd get warm and dry, six weeks and two days after each rocketed.

Our meteorologists agree that it takes six to seven weeks from infancy to full scale weather, so the six weeks and two days fit.

According to Climatology Class in the sixties, they taught that the infancy of our weather patterns started at twenty three and one half miles above the Earth. Or roughly 124 thousand feet above sea level. Civilian airspace is like 30-35 thousand and military around 40 thousand and some higher. In no way could they get to 124 thousand feet.

So nothing goes that high but rockets, meteors, and space junk coming back in. (The shuttle and Russian's return space vehicles, I consider junk. There is other space garbage coming back as well.) (I consider the shuttle junk because they have proven nothing in space, other than the ability to blast out and come back again. Disturbing our weather in the process. All inventions have been done here on Earth, and our top scientists have stated that before they ever do come up with something from the highest priced space laboratory known to man--we will already have it here on Earth.) Except maybe taking chunks of lead every time whoever visits that space station so in time will have enough to blast to the moon. James Van Allen stated from the way his detectors registered the amount of radiation, that they would need a foot thick of lead to protect humans. Maybe by 2020 NASA will have the technology to actually make it to the moon.

They have never been to the moon, with anything alive, that is. Russia tried it with a monkey and it was fried before it got to 600 miles above the Earth. The moon is 250,000 miles. Oh I know the media goes on and on about all our Apollo missions. There was an excellent documentary on TV, entitled "Conspiracy Theory, Did we go to the Moon?" I made a copy. It was on TV three times. The U. S. nay Sayers just tore up NASA, the Russian Cosmonauts said the reason they didn't go was because of the radiation belt. BINGO!!

James Van Allen was credited for that discovery and in the old Encyclopedia's they

referred to it as the Van Allen Belt. A radiation belt that sits roughly 3 50-600 miles above the Earth.

A few years ago NASA was quoted in the Fargo Forum, that they were worried that that radiation belt would take a dip over the space station. The Mir was supposedly located at 240 miles and now the new US. station 220.

When they first talked about building that station they talked about 250 miles above the Earth. Maybe it was lowered because of that possible dipping in that radiation belt. Guaranteed-that will never come out.

Every year is a weather extreme. In January of 1986, the shuttle exploded and we averaged a rain every 3 .2 days from the 1st of April to the end of Sept. but the sun would come out and it was warm and most of those rains were only 20 hundredths or less so would dry and we could get something done.

1987 we had a remarkable year, every crop was average or above, we'd go like 10 days of sun and then a nice rain---No Stress!! But no rocketing in all of 86 so the rocket fanatics could figure out what happened when the shuttle exploded.

The Russians put up their space station and 1988 we had the least amount of rainfall in recorded history--even less than the worst year of the 1930’s.

After NASA got done licking their wounds and started rocketing again, the weather has gone from bad to worse.

The Clinton Administration sold all our rocketry and nuclear technology to China for reelection money in 1996. China sold that technology to every country that could afford it. According to the American Legion Magazine there are at least 25 countries with rocketry technology. Seems everyone wants their own satellites so whomever can keep spying!!

The Bible warns us that when all else fails go back to the tried and proven ways!

Our organic farming is tried and proven. Don't believe the world will starve because my wife bakes this organic bread and we have a small clientele and she bakes 92 one pound loaves of bread out of a bushel of wheat. There is a small amount of soybeans, salt, oil, eggs, honey and yeast.

We had an organic yield of 32 bushels per acre when our county average was 27, with all the excess moisture on our heavy soil and there is no timing with the weather systems. We have gone from 32 to about 10 bu. To an acre. In five miles we can go from no rain to a flood.

This is not normal, man's inhumanity to man, if you will. NASA and all of Capitol Hill know of the rocketry disturbing the weather patterns, but it is big money! NASA bragged about lowering the blast cost from 250 million to 60 million dollars. This is just the blast cost! That money would be much better spent here on Earth.

Ethanol is a joke and all it will do is make double digit inflation, because it takes more energy to make it than what we can get out of it. Unless we could do it like Brazil, there they have sugar cane and I watched a documentary on TV where they have a proven system. Our corn can not compare. Farming has been a challenge, but we have less weeds by using no chemicals, but rocketry just has to have some limits! With the whole world rocketing that just won't happen!
