I've heard a lot of this stuff on shortwave Al. I was looking for something a
little more scientific. Believe me, I am interested in the paranormal, it's
just that the difference between this apparition of Mars and some of the
recent ones is really not that significant. It's one of those technical
things, something like 34.6 million miles for this one, to 36.5 million miles
for a previous (1988) apparition, which I also observed, it was pretty good.
Technically, it's closer than ever in recorded history, and of course
harbingers don't need scientific proximities to validate them, but I was
wondering if any shows discussed observations and such.

Nevertheless, thanks for your response.

Regards.

It has been mentioned by numerous broadcasters on WWCR. Some seem to
think there's great significance in it. The Red Planet probably has at
least the significance of a major comet which many think to be a bad
omen for some world leader. Bro. Stair mentioned the other day that so
many world leaders are in their 80's and 90's now -- Reagan, the Pope,
the (? 100 year) old senator from SC that died recently and several
others who played very important roles. Don't recall their names.
Don't recall what importance he placed on it, but thought we MIGHT BE
about to see the deaths of ( "a rash of" ) many who have been a
stabilizing force in a very unstable world.
