Once the CRUCIFIX and rice paper prayer sheets were easily accessible to the common man, it was small wonder that these easy to get religious items could protect a person from the attack of the TLACIQUES and the HULI JING. No matter how vicious or violent or bloodthirsty the vampire, there is always a simple, inexpensive and common means by which it can be defeated, that is, providing one is able to stand up, confront and face the fear.

But what if..

In December 1521, Pierre Burgot – known as ‘Gros Pierre’ to the masses – and Michel Verdun were tried in Poligny, France. They were charged with the bloodthirsty murder of men, women and children as well as with the eating of human flesh.

Some wolves, Perrault knew, approach you on the street and in your grandma’s parlor. Some wolves masquerade as family friends, respectable gentlemen, kindly grandmothers.

The story of Little Red Riding Hood is, I suppose, one of those historical tales for children

Adam and Eve in the garden, and her innocence protects her from fear. She walks down the woodland path to her grandma’s house without a worry in the world, chasing every butterfly, smelling every rose. It is this innocence that is almost her undoing.

Widely embraced by adults as a way to educate the “rising generation” in the obligations of citizenship in a republic, American schoolbooks represent a neglected source within a wider print culture for tracing the construction of a collective national memory in the early United States.

At the heart of this story is the creation of the United States in the late eighteenth century.

Ask any American when that association began and he will undoubtedly point to the 1950s era anti-Communism crusade.

"We humans are afraid of the strangest things. They don't need to be realistic. There's no indication that enlightenment and scientific progress has banished the monsters from the shadows of our imaginations. We will continue to be afraid of very strange things, including probably sea monsters."

Another giant squid lies peacefully in the Natural History Museum in London, in the Spirit Room, where it is preserved in a huge glass case.

They realised previous attempts to film squid had failed because the bright lights and noisy thrusters on submersibles had frightened them away.

It is very dangerous to have such a policy in teaching—to teach students only how to get certain results, rather than how to do an experiment with scientific integrity.

That is the experiment that makes rat‑running experiments sensible, because it uncovers the clues that the rat is really using—not what you think it’s using.

I was shocked to hear of an experiment done at the big accelerator at the National Accelerator Laboratory, where a person used deuterium.  In order to compare his heavy hydrogen results to what might happen to light hydrogen he had to use data from someone else’s experiment on light hydrogen, which was done on different apparatus.  When asked he said it was because he couldn’t get time on the program (because there’s so little time and it’s such expensive apparatus) to do the experiment with light hydrogen on this apparatus because there wouldn’t be any new result.  And so the men in charge of programs at NAL are so anxious for new results, in order to get more money to keep the thing going for public relations purposes, they are destroying—possibly—the value of the experiments themselves, which is the whole purpose of the thing.

I meet lots of people who sooner or later get me into a conversation about UFO’s, or astrology, or some form of mysticism, expanded consciousness, new types of awareness, ESP, and so forth.
