On September 20, 1950, a US Navy ship just off the coast of San Francisco used a giant hose to spray a cloud of microbes into the air and into the city's famous fog. The military was testing how a biological weapon attack would affect the 800,000 residents of the city.
The Department of Defense (DoD) conducted chemical and biological warfare testing in
support of Project 112 and Project Shipboard Hazard and Defense (SHAD). This testing
used:
• Biological and chemical warfare agents
• Simulants
• Tracers
• Decontaminates
Historical Background of the U.S. Biologic-Warfare Program.
Organisms and materials that were considered by the scientific community to be "safe" were selected (U.S. Army 1977). A total of 160 tests using various simulants were conducted at 66 locations (both military and civilian targets) in the United States (including Alaska and Hawaii) and Canada.
The United States biological weapons program officially began in spring 1943 on orders from U.S. President Franklin Roosevelt. Research continued following World War II as the U.S. built up a large stockpile of biological agents and weapons. Over the course of its 27-year history, the program weaponized and stockpiled the following seven bio-agents (and pursued basic research on many more):
Instead of Reading Books in Order to Find God... WRITE ONE! It's a Much More Meaningful Experience! Take a Blank Piece of Paper and a Pencil... AND THINK FOR YOURSELF!
I Remember Being at a Carlos Santana Concert When I Had the Realization: "Oh, I Get It. I Ought to Dance Myself into A Trance!" We Were Outdoors near Yuba City, CA on a Beautiful Summer Night... The Other Band Was THE WHO... and As I Looked at the Audience I Could See Hispanic People and White People All Having a Wonderful Time Together...
Remember: The Fundamental Message of THE TOWER OF POWER Band is... We Can All Join Together and Have FUN!
I'm Going to Take a Break from Typing and Dance to The Jeff Pershing Band... Chico, California's Finest... Totally Positive Worldbeat Music Designed to CAUSE Happiness...
I Read a Newspaper Article About Finding Happiness by DOING THINGS THAT MAKE YOU HAPPY... Serotonin, Oxytocin, Endorphins... The Human Body Rewards Good Behavior... Evolution... Survival of The Fittest... It ALL MAKES SENSE!
One Suggestion Is to Find a Hobby that is Endlessly Rewarding... I Do Art and Sell My Designs online. My Zazzle Webstore is a Place Where I Can Spend Hours Creating Art and Then Get That Endorphin HIT When Someone Actually Buys Something...
Set Daily Goals That I Can Achieve and The Bask in the Glow of Success... For Example: Take a Walk in Nature... I Do This Every Day. About Five Years Ago I Was in Bad Health and Had to Use a Walker to Get Around... Thru Endless Daily Exercise (just a little bit each day) I am Now Able to Walk a Half a Mile... That's Not Very Much BUT... It's Success... and It's Interesting! Photographing Flowers and Birds and Trees and Clouds...
Here is a Photo of a Praying Mantis on a Rose... I Got the Reward of Seeing this Interesting Insect Because I Was Outdoors Experiencing Nature... BIG FUN!
Another Secret Trick to Life is to NOTICE REALITY: You Can do this Anywhere, Anytime... First, Unplug the TV and the Internet... That's Not Reality... That's Just Swirling Colors on a Screen... and The People That Design Those Programs are DOING IT TO FURTHER THEIR OWN GOALS. Not Yours... Ever Notice That TV News is a Hate for Profit Machine? They Keep on Screaming "Danger-Danger" in order to Keep People Watching... Because a Million Years of Evolution Proved that People Who Paid Attention When a Scout Alerted the Tribe to Danger Survived... and Those that Did Not Pay Attention Died...
Five Simple Steps to Increase Awareness:

Another Secret Trick To Life is EAT GOOD FOOD. I Have Started Eating Fruits and Vegetables In Every Meal. I Saw President Bill Clinton on TV Recently and He Looks Great! Very Healthy. He Said That He Had a Heart Attack and then Changed His Diet to Become a Vegan... Well, I've Decided to Learn From Him and NOT Have a Heart Attack Myself... Just Listen to HIS WISDOM and Change My Own Life... I Have No Become a Vegan or a Vegetarian but... I'm Moving Forward in a Positive Direction... While Retaining My Right to BACON and Hamburgers!

and Remember FARMVILLE - a Positive Video Game on Facebook... I Used it as a Stress Reliever After Work instead of Having a Drink... It's a Way to Visit an Ideal World... This Game Reminds Me of the "Perky Pat Layouts" Game in the Science Fiction Novel "The Three Stigmata of Palmer Eldritch" - In That Book, Ore Miners on Mars Escape their Horrible Life by Eating Psychedelics and Playing a Video Game that Simulates Life in Los Angeles for Teenagers in the 1960's - It Uses "Barbie and Ken" Dolls, Cars and Houses to Complete the Illusion...
I also Participated in The Harmonic Convergence 2020. A Global Meditation Designed to Invite Extra Terrestrials to Visit us On Planet Earth... "ET COME HOME."

The Neurochemicals of Happiness.
Seven Brain Molecules That Make You Feel Great.
"Life in the human body is designed to be a blissful experience. Our evolutionary biology ensures that everything necessary for our survival makes us feel good. All animals seek pleasure and avoid pain. Therefore, our brain has a wellspring of self-produced neurochemicals that turn the pursuits and struggles of life into pleasure and make us feel happy when we achieve them." https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/the-athletes-way/201211/the-neurochemicals-happiness

"Ozone Hole: How We Saved The Planet" tells the largely-forgotten story of the hole in the ozone layer - and how the nations of the world came together to fix it.
Interviewees include Secretary George Shultz, who persuaded President Reagan to phase out CFC chemical production; Professor Mario Molina, who won the Nobel Prize for identifying the CFC problem; Dr James Lovelock whose work inspired Professor Molina to examine CFCs; Dr Jonathan Shanklin, who discovered the ozone hole; Sir Robert Watson who lead the international scientific assessment of the ozone problem.
In September 1987, more than 30 countries agreed to cut the use of CFCs and signed the Montreal Protocol - the world’s first global treaty to reduce pollution.
In 1990, Margaret Thatcher urged further support for the Montreal Protocol so that CFCs could be phased out completely and developing nations could afford ozone friendly technologies.
It worked. Today, the ozone hole is showing signs of recovery. We have avoided a future in which unfiltered UV radiation from the sun would cause millions of cases of skin cancer. For those at the heart of the story, the Montreal Protocol shows that it is possible for the world to come together to prevent environmental destruction.
