The person related that he had been a very senior programmer with a software company in the Pacific Northwest (you can guess which company, right?) and besides being a SQL ace, he was also heavily into linguistics and a language called Prolog, which is more like an artificial intelligence language than anything else. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0in 0in 0pt; line-height: 14.25pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; color: black; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman';\"><span style=\"font-family: Calibri;\">I was skeptical, to be sure, but a few days after we began the email exchange of ideas, he sent me a program he had written that allows a computer to be turned into speed reading tool. It was based on rapidly displaying individual words on a computer screen. He said this was a technology that he had developed and sold for a while on the Internet. He also explained how the development rights to the technology had been sold to a company ( <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.ebrainspeed.com\/\"><span style=\"color: blue;\"><span style=\"font-family: Calibri;\">www.ebrainspeed.com<\/span><\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-family: Calibri;\"> ). In essence, after looking up the patent he held for the technology, I was convinced that this fellow was for real and might be on to something with the method of looking for linguistic shift on the Internet as a tool to forecast future events.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0in 0in 0pt; line-height: 14.25pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; color: black; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman';\"><span style=\"font-family: Calibri;\">He described how technology worked. A system of spiders, agents, and wanderers travel the Internet, much like a search engine robot, and look for particular kinds of words. It targets discussion groups, translation sites, and places were regular people post a lot of text. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0in 0in 0pt; line-height: 14.25pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; color: black; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman';\"><span style=\"font-family: Calibri;\">When a &#8220;target word&#8221; was found, or something that was lexically similar, the web bots take a small 2048 byte snip of surrounding text and send it to a central collection point. The collected data at times approached 100 GB sample sizes and we could have used terabytes. The collected data was then filtered, using at least 7-layers of linguistic processing in Prolog, which was then reduced to numbers and then a resultant series of scatter chart plots on multiple layers of Intellicad ( <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.cadinfo.net\/icad\/icadhis.htm\"><span style=\"color: blue;\"><span style=\"font-family: Calibri;\">http:\/\/www.cadinfo.net\/icad\/icadhis.htm<\/span><\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-family: Calibri;\"> ). Viewed over a period of time, the scatter chart points tended to coalesce into highly concentrated areas. Each dot on the scatter chart might represent one word or several hundred. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0in 0in 0pt; line-height: 14.25pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; color: black; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman';\"><span style=\"font-family: Calibri;\">To define meanings, words or groups of words have to be reduced to their essence.

The doctor told the people that the disease was caused by germs. Viruses were not known at that time or they would have been. Germs. bacteria and viruses, along with bacilli and a few other invisible organisms are the scapegoats which the doctors like to blame for the things they do not understand. If the doctor makes a wrong diagnosis and treatment, and kills the patient, he can always blame it on the germs, and say the patient didn&#8217;t get an early diagnosis and come to him in time.<\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Calibri;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; color: red; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Courier New';\"> <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 14.25pt; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto;\"><span style=\"font-family: Calibri;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; color: black; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Courier New';\">If we check back in history to that 1918 flu period, we will see that it <\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Calibri;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; color: red; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Courier New';\">suddenly struck just after the end of World War I when our soldiers were returning home from overseas. That was the first war in which all the known vaccines were forced on all the servicemen. This mish-mash of poison drugs and putrid protein of which the vaccines were composed, caused such widespread disease and death among the soldiers that it was the common talk of the day, that more of our men were being killed by medical shots than by enemy shots from guns. Thousands were invalided home or to military hospitals, as hopeless wrecks, before they ever saw a day of battle. The death and disease rate among the vaccinated soldiers was four times higherthan among the unvaccinated civilians.<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; color: black; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Courier New';\"> But this did not stop the vaccine promoters. Vaccine has always been big business, and so it was continued doggedly.<\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; color: red; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Courier New';\"><span style=\"font-family: Calibri;\"> <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0in 0in 10pt; line-height: 14.25pt; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; color: red; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Courier New';\"><span style=\"font-family: Calibri;\">It was a shorter war than the vaccine-makers had planned on, only about a year for us, so the vaccine promoters had a lot of unused, spoiling vaccines left over which they wanted to sell at a good profit. So they did what they usually do, they called a meeting behind closed doors, and plotted the whole sordid program, a nationwide (worldwide) vaccination drive using all their vaccines, and telling the people that the soldiers were coming home with many dread diseases contracted in foreign countries and that it was the patriotic duty of every man, woman and child to get &#8220;protected&#8221; by rushing down to the vaccination centers and having all the shots.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; color: black; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Courier New';\"><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: Calibri;\">Most people believe their doctors and government officials, and do what they say. The result was, that almost the entire population submitted to the shots without question, and it was only a matter of hours until people began dropping dead in agony, while many others collapsed with a disease of such virulence that no one had ever seen anything like it before. They had all the characteristics of the diseases they had been vaccinated against, the high fever, chills, pain, cramps, diarrhea, etc. of typhoid, and the pneumonia like lung and throat congestion of diphtheria and the vomiting, headache, weakness and misery of hepatitis from the jungle fever shots, and the outbreak of sores on the skin from the smallpox shots, along with paralysis from all the shots, etc.<\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;
