I found this the other day, anyone else seen it?
comments?
Here is the answer to the question of why the $5.00 and quarters in the
victims pockets.
>>
Interestingly enough, in 1907, Samuel Langhorne
Clemens, aka Mark Twain, wrote a short story
entitled "Extract from Captain Stormfield's Trip to
Heaven," in which the hero leaves Earth for "an
extended excursion among the heavenly bodies"
on the tail of a comet.
In the story, the hero has his passport on him,
plus five dollars and three 25-cent pieces for the fare.
Many of the Heaven's Gate victims had their
passports on their persons and $5.75 in their hands.
(See New York Post, March 29, 1997, page 6)
In a strange twist, the comet Hale-Bopp has the
same initials as Helena Blavatsky.
Also, the acronym for Evolutionary Level Above
Human (ELAH) spells HALE backwards. (See the
Boston Herald for March 29, 1997, page 3)
