Hi Jim and all,
        Personally, I am weary of hearing about "God is dead"
.....and Atheists - not to mention figures from various "religious"
Sects - they ALL seem to think of "God" as some anthropomorphic
Male big know-it-all, vengeful, anti sex, homophobic HUMAN - not
all that far removed from Greek mythological "gods."
        I don't believe in the same "God" the atheists don't believe in.
Ironically, they seem to be willing to throw out everything not of this
Physical plane as well. Being anti religion does not require being anti
Metaphysical.  
        How it was that "Christians" (and I use the term VERY loosely)
Decided that "God" and evolution are somehow magically incompatible
Is beyond me as well. To conclude that if life did not originate on Earth
somehow negates anything at all flabbergasts me. Is this the 1600s or
what?
        Amen and hookie zookie, Michael

Hi all,

there is a story circulating on the locals of Mbale having eaten meteorite powder in the belief it was a divine cure for Aids. Can anyone back that up with a source / more details?

Thanks,
R.

Hi Regine,

Having been a collecor during that time, I can verify from personal 
information I read (I believe in sky and telescope) that the people did 
think it was a cure from heaven for aids and ground it up and used it 
in that form.

One small stone also struck a boy in the head (hammer stone). A few 
buildings where damaged from the fall.

Truly a brilliant choice for the cover illustration. Thank you Derek and Michael
for sharing a preview with us. I have no doubt that the new editors will
continue to provide?the community?with an excellent product, and I may encourage
everyone to offer them all the support they need.

Thanks Al, I have the article now.

I did some research on the boy some time ago, unfortunately there are no documented details on who he was.
