    "SOUL CATCHER" UNVEILED BY TELECOM GIANT

    By David Guyatt

    September 1996

    ----------------------------------------------------------------

    British Telecom, Britain's giant telecommunications enterprise,
    has a long history of involvement with the intelligence
    services. "Tinkerbell" is the name given to a secret unit of
    official phone-tappers who once roamed the nation searching for
    a socket in which to place a black jack-plug.

    Targeted were wicked state enemies: the Gay Rights Movement,
    Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament, Green activists, the liberal
    Church and other equally dangerous undesirables.

    Now privatized and generating a massive revenue stream of
    33 billion a year, things at BT have changed. Exchange
    digitilization and computerization has reduced Tinkerbell
    "tappers" to a manageable and profitable number.

    But links to the intelligence services are still an integral part
    of the structure, and employees still sign the all encompassing
    "Official Secrets Act," designed to muzzle their every word.
    The mere mention to a friend of the colour of the office
    carpet is still, technically, punishable by an extended term
    in prison.

    In a recent announcement, BT outlined it's commitment to
    leading-edge communications developments, that it believes will
    shoe-horn it into the new millennium. The
    state-controlled-private-sector giant no longer just want your
    every last penny. They now have plans to grab your Soul, too.

    QUOTE:

    SOUL CATCHER IMPLANTS

    Nexus Magazine, Oct/Nov 96.

    British scientists are developing a concept for a computer chip
    which, when implanted into the skull behind the eye, will be able
    to record a person's every life time thought ands sensation.

    "This is the end of death," said Dr. Chris Winter of British
    Telecom's artificial-life team. He predicts that within thirty
    years it will be possible to relive other people's lives by
    playing back their experiences on a computer. "By combining this
    information with a record of a person's genes, we could recreate
    a person physically, emotionally and spiritually."

    Dr Winter and his team of scientists at BT's Martlesham Heath
    Laboratories, near Ipswich, call the chip "the Soul Catcher."

    British Telecom would not divulge how much money it is investing
    in the project, but Dr. Winter said it was taking "Soul Catcher
    2025" very seriously. He confessed there were profound ethical
    considerations, but emphasized that BT was embarking on this
    line of research so it could keep at the forefront of
    communications technology.

    Dr. Winter said "an implanted chip would be like an aircraft's
    black box, and would enhance communications beyond current
    concepts." For example, police would be able to use it to relive
    an attack, rape or murder from the victims viewpoint, to help
    catch the criminal... I could even play back the smells, sounds
    and sights of my holidays to friends.

    Other more frightening applications include downloading an older
    person's experiences into a newborn baby by transplanting the
    chip.

    UNQUOTE

    The ability to remotely interrogate audio and video signals
    suggests that future "implantee's" could also be remotely
    interrogated. The miniaturization of implants remains at the
    forefront of technological innovation. I have seen an implant
    the size of a grain of rice. I understand this is large compared
    to current technology; that implants the size of a human hair
    exist -- that they are injectable.

    The ancillary volume of the USAF's "New World Vistas," and Metz
    & Kievit's "Revolution in Military Affairs," both outline
    futuristic scenario's not dissimilar -- at heart -- to BT's
    plans.

    Then recall that advanced military technology has a lead-time of
    20-30 years. Lastly, remember that BT remains a willing servant
    of the British secret state.

    You figure it out.
