Uh, no back peddeling Kwell, you presented this factoid because you thought there was something significant about the event. Now its just an "oh well I thought it was interesting"??? If you're going to wield guns, you should stick to them.

Obama is not taking over the emergency broadcast system. How silly can you get. What you are talking about is a test of the natl emergency broadcast system. It will take all of 3 minutes and will be over. It is much like the weekly ebs tests on radio and TV. As a matter of fact the local authorities use parts of the natl system to notify people of weather or other hazards. This test will be conducted by FEMA and the FCC. Not the executive branch of the govt. No conspiracy here, nothing to even talk about.
Yes I know, it is the FIRST time they have ever done this....The EAS is a national alert and warning system established to enable the President of the United States to address the American public during emergencies.
And after Obama mutters "...and that concludes this test of the Emergency Alert System," will you come back here and admit you were wrong? Or will your story change that the test was just a false flag, or coded psyop, or some other load of poop?edit on 6-10-2011 by ColAngus because: (no reason given)
I didn't say he was going to mutter anything important, I just find it interesting with all the other unusual happenings lately.

bacteriophage
or phage
Any of a group of usually complex viruses that infect bacteria. Discovered in the early 20th century, bacteriophages were used to treat human bacterial diseases such as bubonic plague and cholera but were not successful; they were abandoned with the advent of antibiotics in the 1940s. The rise of drug-resistant bacteria in the 1990s focused renewed attention on the therapeutic potential of bacteriophages. Thousands of varieties exist, each of which may infect only one or a few types of bacteria. The core of a bacteriophage's genetic material may be either DNA or RNA. On infecting a host cell, bacteriophages known as lytic or virulent phages release replicated viral particles by lysing (bursting) the host cell. Other types, known as lysogenic or temperate, integrate their nucleic acid into the host's chromosome to be replicated during cell division. During this time they are not virulent. The viral genome may later become active, initiating production of viral particles and destruction of the host cell. A.D. Hershey and Martha Chase used a bacteriophage in a famous 1952 experiment that supported the theory that DNA is the genetic material. Because bacteriophage genomes are small and because large quantities can be prepared in the laboratory, they are a favourite research tool of molecular biologists. Studies of phages have helped illuminate genetic recombination, nucleic acid replication, and protein synthesis.
Origin: noun use of Greek -phagos -phagous

Before this goes anymore off-topic I'm going to jump in here and ask what's the point. If you have no way to counter the information and sources he provides without attacking his character it means your theory is wrong. So, instead of looking at others maybe you should look at the theories you support and ask yourself why they can't stand up to scrutiny.

Are you kidding? Earlier he was telling me a fireball falling from the sky was a contrail.lol He just throws so much bull into a thread til you finally give up.
Asteroid: A relatively small, inactive, rocky body orbiting the Sun.
Comet: A relatively small, at times active, object whose ices can vaporize in sunlight forming an atmosphere (coma) of dust and gas and, sometimes, a tail of dust and/or gas.
Meteoroid: A small particle from a comet or asteroid orbiting the Sun.
Meteor: The light phenomena which results when a meteoroid enters the Earth's atmosphere and vaporizes; a shooting star.
Meteorite: A meteoroid that survives its passage through the Earth's atmosphere and lands upon the Earth's surface.
