Thursday February 07, 2008 14:01 by staring at goats
"......The British Ministry of Defence says it will abandon deep-diving experiments which involve inducing decompression sickness in live goats. The animals were used to see what the likely risk of "the bends" would be following escape from a submarine at varying depths under water. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/politics/7230867.stm |

Jump To Comment: 1 2 3These people are basically nutty. The head of US military intelligence once tried to walk through walls! They use psychics to try and find bin Laden and they even try to kill goats with a glance! Watch this video of General Albert Stubblebine his efforts to walk through walls and his goats.
It's not just about staring nor just about goats. Admittedly no casual reader may even hope to enter into the solemnity of a shared secret which is the knowledge, understanding or use of codified language. But you'll be on your way to a wink-wink if not a fully initiated nudge-nudge. For in truth there are several meanings to goats but one which might assist you on the noble path to not being scared might be the "CIA killing goats by staring at them". That got a specific mention in an article about how Pakistan stopped existing as a viable entity last year complete with a pretty humble recipe for goat stew. http://www.indymedia.ie/article/84912?&condense_comment...14097 If you can't be bothered reading that sort of cryptic or indulgent shite - just read the website of the man who wrote the book staring at goats http://www.jonronson.com/goats_04.html http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jon_Ronson
But that is not the only meaning of goats nor was it the first mention on this site of such an activity. This article from 2004 declared the activity to be a waste of time http://www.indymedia.ie/article/67783 Goats like Dogs have appeared lots of the years. Indeed there was a feature article last summer which highlighted the plight of the indiginous goats of the Burren, County Clare http://www.indymedia.ie/article/83630

Now you're feeling suitably solemn & rewarded & having read the article above know that in the late 20th century to the early years of the 21st century both the UK & French military machines were experimenting with
the goat or Capra aegagrus hircus to give it its proper title, & further now knowing that a CIA research unit is ridiculed for exploring the possibility of killing the critters by staring at them "and using negative chi" - it might whet your wonder to ponder : can you do anything to a goat by prolonged less than courtous direct eye-contact. & given the similarities in cardio-vascular & respiratorial systems between capra aegagrus hircus and the homo sapien can such techniques be used as either defensive or offensive weapons? The answer, ludicrous as it may seem, is in the affirmative. But the conditions have to be right. I would advise the more nervous type of conspiratorial head to not worry about it excessively, but if given to twisting this old canard in the future to talk more about induced myotonia & less about "negative chi". Coz it's much easier to just give someone a heart attack or an embolism /stroke or quite simply just crash their plane.
they didn't get compensation unlike others spiked with LSD by MI6 during "truth serum" human experimentation things. IT was all the rage back in the fifties. The Yankees were slow & only started spiking beat poets & trailer trash by the time the Vietnam war was full on. Then the Maharishi met the beatles, L Ron Hubbard invented the lie detector & of course punk rock helped to make the world the squeeky just & optimistic it is. No animal will be harmed in the interest of protecting the people who are employed on the submarine nuclear warhead armed fleets of the UK or France thanks to the power of the computer modelling we all have now. Truly Gifted.
