Art then reads alarming reports from listeners about environmental anomalies, including mysterious geese die-offs in New Jersey, an unidentified goo washing up on Florida beaches, and a disturbing account of a man hemorrhaging fatally in a Tacoma bank. He also shares a letter from a trucker who drove 38 miles into the Nevada Test Site with DOE clearance and mentions the newly signed presidential determination by George W. Bush exempting Area 51 from hazardous waste disclosure laws.
The program shifts to open lines focused on MRI-related experiences, featuring Dr. Linda Honor, a behavioral neuroscientist who connects the electromagnetic fields generated by MRI machines to the Philadelphia Experiment and suggests these fields may compromise the integrity of the human electromagnetic energy system. Callers describe seeing entities, buffalo herds, and angelic figures following MRI exposure.
Key Moments
NEAR Shoemaker lands on Eros: Linda Moulton Howe opens with the Valentine's Day landing of NEAR Shoemaker on asteroid 433 Eros, the first vehicle ever to set down on an asteroid - 196 million miles away, descending at four miles per hour.
Square depressions on Eros: Howe describes photos in which features on Eros appear as right-angled squares, and project scientist Dr. Lucy McFadden's explanation that hard-rock crystal structure can fracture in 90-degree patterns.
Trucker hauls a 'ram load' into the Nevada Test Site: Art reads a listener letter from a DOE-contract trucker who legally entered the test site with a classified 'ram load,' was issued a badge and a numbered grid map, and drove 38 miles to Area 31.
MRI patients describe a dreamlike state: Behavioral neuroscientist Dr. Linda Arnold reluctantly comes on air to confirm head-MRI patients routinely report 'out-of-it' or dreamlike sensations after scans, a concern she published in Hospital Practice.
