According to an Alaskan local who is a friend of mine, HAARP has

no funding anymore from DoD, the guards at the front gate spend

facility for the Univ. of Alaska.



I recall reading a couple of magazine articles some years ago when
HAARP was
active; and in both of them the writers reported the gate was open
and there was
no one at the gate. I recall one of the writers wandered around
until he found
someone in a building who showed him around - there were some great
photos of the
'huge' antenna system.

When all is said and sifted, what you have here is a slightly
overpowered ionosonde. Do a little math on how much of the output
power
is left after inverse square losses at the altitude of the
ionosphere...

Despite the kook brigades frothing, (they variously claimed that it
is
able to control weather, make earthquakes and shoot down spacecraft
in
LEO) the amount of field strength at altitude is about enough to run
an
electric train. Toy electric train.....

Oh and it's not really that unique either, there are some sites in
Europe that have similar power levels.

The rest of FUD is just whacko kook froth and pseudoscience and can
be
treated accordingly.

Excessive crossposting to kook groups (alt.fan.art.bell -
alt.conspiracy
etc) removed to avoid encouraging kook invasions of mainstream
groups....
