Richard Heenes and the balloon boy are in Fort Collins, CO, which is only 70 miles North of Aurora, CO, where Zazi lived. There are two Sherwin Williams in Aurora 15390 E Alameda Pkwy, Aurora 2832 S Havana St, Aurora and two in Fort Collins 2627 S College Ave, Fort Collins 2415 E Mulberry St, Fort Collins (edit) georger may need to confirm this, but I think somehow they thought they could recreate the helium flash with the Large Hadron Collider and the helium balloon. helium flash- Runaway and explosive helium fusion inside a star as it evolves off the main sequence and into the giant phase of evolution. Occurs when degenerate gas at the star's center reaches a temperature of about 108 K.

The corporate headquarters for Sherwin Williams is 727 Rubber Ave Naugatuck, CT Coincidence?

Well, you can ask yourself, how did I know that? Now if the back seat of that red Cadillac Eldorado could talk... (edit) Re stunts for hire: flat rate $1500/day. Snowmman Industries will agree to any confidentiality agreement, but we have a history of violating them. Since most of our contracts are of a legally questionable nature, we've not had to worry about violating contract clauses.

Jo asked " Boeing, Boeing, Boeing over and over - did the whole world work for Boeing? " Yes. graph attached showing Boeing employees from 1959-2001 in 1967 it peaked at 100,874. in 1989 it surpassed that at 106,670 In 1971, it dropped to just 37,200 from http://www.seattlepi.com/business/39369_boeingweb.shtml Even thought over 500,000 people may have been connected to Boeing like Duane, it makes sense that Duane Weber is more strongly connected. I don't know how many of those Boeing employees were also connected to Sherwin Williams. I don't think Kelly Moore had aerospace coatings? Question: Did Duane ever have a red car? We know about the vanity license plate. (edit) In thinking about Jerry's actions, they do seem odd. A reasonable explanation is that he knows Duane is Cooper and is trying to cover it up. I can't think of any others? (edit) I can confirm that, unlike others, Jerry has never been in the employ of CSG Inc, or Snowmman Industries, if that helps.

I used Kelly Moore just this last summer. No wonder we disagree. It's amazing to see the brand loyalty paint guys have to a store. You don't just go back and forth. Kelly-Moore goes back to 1946. I think Duane Weber was involved somehow but it's been covered up. They have 4 manufacturing facilities, doing 20 million gallons of paint per year. One is in Seattle, WA. interesting history about the founders here: http://www.fundinguniverse.com/company-histories/KellyMoore-Paint-Company-Inc-Company-History.html Don't people know about the wayback archive? For instance you can get pages from dropzone.com from years back (some are missing) see here: http://web.archive.org/web/*/http://www.dropzone.com

377: I think you're evaluating it wrong. You're assuming there's nothing special about Tena Bar. Assume the money fell in the columbia. A dredge moves stuff from a large area to a small area. People travel on that small area. They don't travel in other areas. Assuming the money landed in the Columbia. If any money is found anywhere, it makes sense that Tena Bar is more likely than other places. There could have been money elsewhere, that wasn't found. (edit) Brian isn't special. If it wasn't Brian, it would have been someone else.

What if I said "I live in Texas", where H.B. 2003 was just passed. Would that affect what people say here? Does the Texas law make Sluggo happier? (edit) I suppose if you read it close, it's reasonably constrained to evil intent. It's not just harassment, but impersonation/fraud etc? (edit) The law should give pause to anyone out there trying to pass themselves off as CSG. As President-for-life, I am especially concerned about such actions by others. H.B. No. 2003 AN ACT relating to the creation of the offense of online harassment. BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF TEXAS: SECTION 1. Chapter 33, Penal Code, is amended by adding Section 33.07 to read as follows: Sec. 33.07. ONLINE HARASSMENT. (a) A person commits an offense if the person uses the name or persona of another person to create a web page on or to post one or more messages on a commercial social networking site: (1) without obtaining the other person's consent; and (2) with the intent to harm, defraud, intimidate, or threaten any person. (b) A person commits an offense if the person sends an electronic mail, instant message, text message, or similar communication that references a name, domain address, phone number, or other item of identifying information belonging to any person: (1) without obtaining the other person's consent; (2) with the intent to cause a recipient of the communication to reasonably believe that the other person authorized or transmitted the communication; and (3) with the intent to harm or defraud any person. (c) An offense under Subsection (a) is a felony of the third degree. An offense under Subsection (b) is a Class A misdemeanor, except that the offense is a felony of the third degree if the actor commits the offense with the intent to solicit a response by emergency personnel. (d) If conduct that constitutes an offense under this section also constitutes an offense under any other law, the actor may be prosecuted under this section, the other law, or both. (e) It is a defense to prosecution under this section that the actor is any of the following entities or that the actor's conduct consisted solely of action taken as an employee of any of the following entities: (1) a commercial social networking site; (2) an Internet service provider; (3) an interactive computer service, as defined by 47 U.S.C. Section 230; (4) a telecommunications provider, as defined by Section 51.002, Utilities Code; or (5) a video service provider or cable service provider, as defined by Section 66.002, Utilities Code. (f) In this section: (1) "Commercial social networking site" means any business, organization, or other similar entity operating a website that permits persons to become registered users for the purpose of establishing personal relationships with other users through direct or real-time communication with other users or the creation of web pages or profiles available to the public or to other users.

see below Agreed. definitely. some people did do a rough calc on some forums while it was happening...the balloon didn't seem big enough did it?, but surprisingly it was "possible" if the boy was maybe 45 lbs or so. What I thought was silly, was the structural issue. the thing seemed to flimsy to support a 45 lb point load below it...i.e. it would distort. at 20C and standard air pressure: Weight of air per liter = 1.20 gr/l Weight of helium per liter = 0.18 gr/l Net lift per liter of helium = 1.03 gr/l 6 year old more likely would weigh 50-60 lbs. Assume the whole balloon would have to weigh at least 10 lbs. So 70lbs of lift needed. approx 32000 grams. So about 31000 liters of helium needed. That's 1089 cubic feet. Now if the balloon was 20 feet in diameter, that's 314 cu. ft of volume per ft of thickness. So if it was 4 feet thick (tapering at edges)...then you're just about there. It is interesting to ask "why was it that size?" ... maybe it was designed to hold the kid.

Attached is a picture of the Sherwin Williams in Huntington Beach. They no longer sell wallpaper. Only paint. Sherwin Williams does have a portfolio of aerospace coating products: exterior: * JET GLO¨ - the premium aerospace coating for medium and large size aircraft. * ACRY GLO¨ - a high-quality aerospace coating generally used on smaller aircraft and helicopters or for feature striping on larger aircraft coated with JET GLO¨. primers for above interior: JETFlex™ - durable polyurethanes available in solvent-based and water-reducible formulations. I explored the original invention date of 5 gallon plastic storage buckets before. It's possible that the buckets Duane used to bury the money, that Jo revealed, actually came from this paint store? I'm not sure how they distributed larger quantities pre-1971. I also don't know if Tom Kaye found any paint remnants on the money. Related: CSG has discovered that the recent Balloon Boy episode was a stunt to fake a UFO flight. The plan was that an obviously fake UFO flight, would turn the public against knowledge of real UFOs. This was deemed necessary by the FBI, due to the our recent uncovering of the UFO/cow mutilation connection to the money find at the Fazios.

I have something that I think connects. I knew a guy from Huntington Beach. The rumor he was laying low because of some misunderstanding relating to drugs. In any case, he had a red vw bug, with the front end lowered. He got a fix-it ticket for it. (no bumper, or the bumper was too low, or something). Well, I was not from Huntington Beach, but had a red vw. He hatched a plan to swap plates and drive my dub down to get the ticket signed off. Apparently the plan worked. But the plot thickens. I was sleeping in my red vw one night and awoke to find myself surrounded by kids outside. Unknowingly, I had parked at a schoolbus stop. The other red vw bug owner, was working at a burrito joint. Somehow, someone knew were were connected and a message was passed to him accusing me of being some kind of pervert. I later went to the burrito joint, and he gave me an oversized burrito, for the same price as normal size. A number of years after that, he died. I don't know what happened to that red vw, or if it was still lowered. I don't believe he ever worked at Sherwin Williams though.

377 asked "How can the new CSG control what the former members do?" ??? I don't understand the question. You don't think the current CSG can control the thoughts or actions of large groups of people? Or are you just curious about the details of how? FBI cut off power at the compound again.

Bruce: the 5-year-old's view, is that there are no "principals in the Cooper case" The Emperor Has No Clothes. it's all fake..made up...etc. It's just TV stuff. There is nothing underneath. No one behind the curtain. It's all BS. That's the thing. That's why everyone shuts up. Because it's all BS underneath. Just nothing. No principals. That's why I was able to take over the CSG. I am also now President-For-Life due to a bylaw change. If the media wants to know what the CSG is doing on the Cooper case, they have to contact me. But I won't respond. Because the CSG is more secretive than any govt. agency. So it all makes sense.

Weekly report from the CSG, who were each recruited by the FBI thru random web postings. 1) I did see someone playing Solitaire very quickly, on a computer in a back aisle of a electronics store. When I approached the computer to his left to inspect its monitor, and reached for the mouse with my right, he kept his left hand stationary. I glanced over. He had his left hand covering a flash drive he had inserted in the usb port. This was as he played Solitaire. He was either installing or removing stuff from the display computers. I assumed he was also connected with OGA, and just nodded and went on my way. In hindsight he may have been copying documents from the FBI that I was supposed to then download to a flash drive of my own. I may have missed the transfer. 2) "Meet John Doe" is a 1941 comedy drama film directed and produced by Frank Capra and starring Gary Cooper and Barbara Stanwyck. The film is about a "grassroots" political campaign, created unwittingly by a newspaper columnist and pursued by a wealthy businessman. Infuriated at being laid off from her job as a newspaper columnist from The New Bulletin, Ann Mitchell (Barbara Stanwyck) prints a fake letter from the unemployed "John Doe," threatening suicide in protest of society's ills. When the note causes a sensation, the newspaper is forced to rehire Mitchell. After reviewing a number of derelicts who have shown up at the paper claiming to have penned the original suicide letter, Ann and Henry Connell (James Gleason) decide to hire John Willoughby (Gary Cooper), a former baseball player and tramp who is in need of money to repair his injured arm, to play John Doe. The Doe philosophy spreads across the country, developing into a political movement, with financial support from the newspaper's publisher, D.B. Norton (Edward Arnold), who plans to channel the support for Doe into support for his own political ambitions. When Willoughby, who has come to believe in the Doe philosophy himself, realizes that he is being used, he tries to expose the plot, but is stymied in his attempts to talk to a nationwide radio audience at a rally, and then exposed as a fake by Norton (who claims to have been deceived, like everyone else, by the staff of the newspaper). Frustrated by his failure, Willoughby intends to commit suicide by jumping from the roof of the City Hall on Christmas Eve as in the original John Doe letter. Only the intervention of Mitchell and followers of the John Doe clubs persuades him to renege on his threat to kill himself. At this point in the movie, a reference to Jesus Christ is made, that a historical "John Doe" has already died for the sake of humanity. The film ends with Connell turning to Norton and saying, "There you are, Norton! The people! Try and lick that!" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meet_John_Doe (edit) Bollywood made a remake of the same movie as "Main Azaad Hoon". As far as the CSG can tell, no terrorists were involved in that movie. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hPgQkWYyTco&feature=related

very cool 377. you can estimate a person's maximal heart rate from (220 - age) The accuracy of determining maximal heart-rate based on this formula can vary at any given age by + 10 beats per minute. Using the Karvonen formula, the generally accepted heart-rate ranges are between 60% to 80% of maximal heart-rate reserve. Target heart-rate = % intensity X heart-rate reserve + resting heart-rate assuming rest pulse of 60, a 50-year old has 110 reserve 80% intensity = .8 * 110 = 88 60 + 88 = 148 for 80% intensity So 150 really isn't "high" ...it's towards the max end of what would be considered "training zone" for exercise designed to improve your cardio/fat burning. Above that, you go into the anaerobic zone..develops your lactic acid system. 60%-70% is efficiency zone. Above 90% would only be short term. Like sprints. http://www.brianmac.co.uk/hrm1.htm I would expect a certain amount of the increased heart rate is just due to the altitude change?... If you measured your pulse rate when flying in a open plane, even if you knew you weren't going to jump, it would go up? Hmm..but I guess it would be a small effect.

Hm. As President of the Citizen's Sleuth Group, I must correct the record. Jo is not authorized to speak for the CSG, and has no membership card (current) from the group. CSG sent FBI Director Mueller an invitation to join CSG. He believes he didn't join because he stopped halfway thru, thinking "not clicking" saved his butt. I guess people believe what they need to believe. http://news.cnet.com/8301-27080_3-10370164-245.html In any case Mueller is not in CSG either. (one of the CSG bylaws requires members to never say in public: "Hi. I'm stupid".) CSG does commend Snowmman on his 3472 posts, and looks forward to 10,000. Quantity matters, not quality.

Snow, we are little in the "all other" category - most of our reserves are in USTs but in the US's scheme of thing we are not big. It's ironic that certain people think this is off the topic (OK, it is) but then talk about other stuff that has absolutely nothing to do with Cooper. Actually this isn't off the topic either - if you consider the theory that Cooper's dollars did end up untraced in Asia

New Bretton Woods. China sells stuff to the US, so US runs a huge trade deficit with China leaving it a net holder of USD so...it buys bonds with them, thus financing the US deficit. Gotta love it. Edited to add (if anyone is interested) cos in fact I should rather have said "bretton woods II" cos "new bretton woods" is more commonly referring to something else http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_monetary_systems#The_.22Revived_Bretton_Woods_system.22_identified_in_2003 Right, which is why anyone who isn't on the US treasury bond list is a rogue state. The invasion of South Africa is back on!

Evidently the plan is to create a black hole that will destroy the earth. Luckily, they arrested the guy. So the world is safe. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/europe/france/6284816/Al-Qaeda-suspect-was-Cern-nuclear-researcher-plotting-attacks-on-France.html "Investigators described the older man as "very high level" and said that he had been in contact with individuals linked to Al-Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb (Aqim) - the North African wing of the terrorist network - about potential targets in France. Intelligence sources said he had expressed a "wish, a desire" to carry out a terrorist attack but had "not committed material preparatory acts". "The older man was a physicist who has been working on analysis projects with Cern's Large Hadron Collider – the world's largest atom collider designed to explore what happened after the Big Bang that allowed matter to survive and to create the universe 14 billion years ago. His work would have intensified when the collider started collecting data in a few months time." I told you it's those old guys with grey hair you have to watch. See: what most people don't understand is that the death panels as part of Obama healthcare are part of homeland defense.

And another 1/4 is Chinese! Damn. You're right. Plus they're communist! Oh wait. Stand down. They buy all our bonds. Never mind. (edit) Crank the numbers: http://www.treas.gov/tic/mfh.txt (edit) just perused that list. Where the hell is South Africa? How come they're not ponying up? Probably terrorists running the show there.

"He can land in Snow friendly Slovenia" I actually got a random email from a guy in Georgia the other night. It was so cryptic I had to think for a second to understand what he was talking about. Then I had to consult wikipedia to figure out just what the current situation is with Georgia and Russia. It's complicated. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2008-2009_Georgia%E2%80%93Russia_crisis And I actually did talk to someone from Slovenia within the last week. But I will never get my 10,000 page dossier. I'll have to pay the FBI to open a file on me. I'm really pissed. One of our arch rivals, MLM International, is running a sale this month...but it's obvious they're buying the customers..they're definitely selling below costs...There oughta be a law! This is unfair competitive practices! http://www.mlmintl.com/ They're even stealing their vision statement from us: "MLM International specializes in ammunition, ammunition components, and explosives. Because we focus our energies in one vertical sector of the defense market, we provide our customers with better service, more competitive prices, and prompt shipping." I will admit, if you're low on 40mm grenades, it's probably a good time to stock up. Everyone else is. http://www.mlmintl.com/40mmHEDP-M430.pdf (edit) from wiki above: Mig-29 vs Hermes 450 drone, Georgia. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-uyTFPwSXUI Unlike MLM, SI doesn't have to buy their customers.
