Sounds like the same "machine" that had voices of the Challenger Crew

That parallel occurred to me too -- but almost too tasteless to say out
loud.

thanks for the insight.

Wow, Robert AM Stephens. I haven't heard that name in a WHILE.

He's wrapped up all right. He went on the Art Bell radio show several
years ago as a guest talking about weather control and was booted off the
show. He then started rumour mongering that Art was a pedophile (he
isn't) on another radio show (whose host had a personal grudge against
Srt) and it went on and on for months.

On reading the article again, it's definately a hoax. Robert Stephens
is known for them.

An article from 1999 -
