AN OPEN LETTER FROM THE C.E.O. AND BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF

Dear Members of the Public,

Daniel Bester Incorporated, the world’s leading industrial consortium, has recently come under fire from certain conspiracy-theory-minded special interests groups, amongst them the U.S. Department of Justice, the Securities and Exchange Commission, and the European Union’s Competition Commission. As unjust and unfounded as the accusations made by these few militant extremists are, and despite the fact that such ridiculous underhanded smear tactics warrant no true attention, we at Daniel Bester Inc. feel that it is our duty to let the members of our product-purchasing public know the truth. Truth is a word that these reactionary extremists do not like to hear, truth is their enemy and they seek to subjugate truth in order to advance their own political agendas. For the sake of the public though, Daniel Bester Inc. cannot allow this happen. Therefore, we must answer these charges so that the truth can be known, and so that these cowards who wrongly attack us with fear tactics, lawsuits, criminal charges and Acts of Congress can see that we are not afraid of them, and are willing to stand up to them for the sake of our public, and our public’s children.

Daniel Bester Inc. has, at no time, ever acted as the front organization for a secret shadow government, specifically not the Masters of the Illuminati.

Daniel Bester Inc. has never employed the Supreme Pontiff of the Roman Catholic Church in any official position. While he have great respect for His Holiness, we have never used that office as a tool to advance our corporate missions.

Daniel Bester Inc. has never engaged in any unlawful human cloning experiments. The only human cloning studies we have ever conducted were done in our laboratories in Sau Titlo, an island under the territorial jurisdiction of the Republic of Cosa Nostra, which has no laws regulating, much less outlawing human cloning.

Daniel Bester Inc. has never created artificial virus, biogens, viroids or prions in our laboratories. The creation of artificial organisms and paraorganisms is impossible. For instance, the virus known as TR-89 was not artificially created, rather it was formed by mutating segments of the polio virus, not by creating new paraorganisms from scratch.

We do not play God.

Daniel Bester Inc. was in no way responsible for the recent ousting of Esperian President Ghemel Rotory, nor in the restoration of the Epserian Monarchy. The fact that the newly restored King Simio IV offered our company a tax haven in Esperon as his first official act is entirely coincidental.

Daniel Bester Inc. has never engaged in official meetings with The Arcane, nor have we acted as or claimed to act as the official emissaries and representatives of humanity during said meetings. There is absolutely no truth to the claim that Daniel Bester Inc. engaged in trade activities with The Arcane, nor that Daniel Bester Inc. willingly and openly sold any people in exchange for advanced Arcane weapons technology. Nor is there any truth to the fanciful fiction that Daniel Bester Inc. has acted in concert with The Arcane to replace human political and religious leaders with android or automata replicons.

Daniel Bester Inc. has never engaged in illegal trading policies, insider trading, or artificial manipulation of stock, bond or commodities prices. We would certainly never threaten the life or limb of any member of the New York, London or Tokyo Stock Exchanges, nor members of their families for purely financial gain.

Daniel Bester Inc. has never and will never stockpile nuclear weapons or other weapons of mass or minimal destruction. Nor do we have any facilities in the Colorado mountains which are capable of deploying any such weapons. In is the avowed policy of Daniel Bester Inc. to never deploy or maintain use of “first strike” submarines or orbital weapons platforms.

We hope that this clears the air of rumor, speculation and accusations. And thank you from Daniel Bester Inc. This company has always striven to fight for truth, justice and other such things.

Letters: May 2004

Written correspondences from good natured gentlemen who have read our previous installments and wish to comment on some aspects thereof.

Dear Publishers,

There is nothing quite as cool as Quakers. Not only do they make Pennsylvania magical, but their particular brand of oat meal is the tastiest of all meals including corn meal, barley meal and gruel. Perhaps you could do an article on Quakers or Quaker State brand automobilating carriage engine lubricant. That would be neat.

Sincerely,

Ilich Ramirez “Carlos The Jackal” Sanchez

To Whom it May Concern:

I am deeply disappointed by the fact that this fine publication has yet to take a definite stance on the war between the Armies of the Unified Republic of American States and the filthy rag headed infidels of Iraqistan. As many in the public have been quick to criticize Bush, I am sad that his periodical has not stepped up to defend Bush.

While the war with Iraqistan no doubt caused many casualties, I cannot accept that Bush is any way responsible for these deaths. Sixteen Stone, Razorblade Suitcase, Deconstructed, The Science of Things, and The Golden State were all fine collections of music and not a one of them can be construed as causing a military conflict.

Neither Gavin Rossdale, or his lovely wife Gwen Stefani-Rossdale, have ever planned or executed a major military operation and I must take this chance to chastise this periodical for not defending this wonderful English band against the public’s misguided attacks.

Love,

Rim Josen

To Lionell et al.,

As a scientist, I am constantly frustrated by the continual catachrestical use of the phrase “quantum leap.” For many years now I have heard sportscasters, news anchors, and producers of Scott Bakula syndicated science fiction television shows abuse this collection of words.

Quantum, is based upon the Latin word Quantum, meaning “amount.” A quanta, scientifically speaking, is the smallest possible amount of energy; a discreet packet or wave-function which can, in some ways, function as a particle.

“A quantum leap” refers to the action of an electron climbing to a higher valence within the outer orbital shell of an atom. As electrons are incredibly small, this energy is also a very small amount of energy.

We in the physics community are tired of hearing a major change or advance called a “quantum leap.” This is inappropriate and scientifically incorrect. Man, I hate that fucking shit.

Happy Fun Guy

Weather your looking for a career in science, art, scientific arts, or artistic sciences, MCATDA is the most best place to be wear you can get a degree in alot of exiting feilds to help you get a job with.

College is a time for learning. In order to facilitate this, we have devised our own special patented system of induced learning which you will only find here at the Montsylvanian College of Agricultural Technology Design Arts.

Each student is required to participate in a series of learning sessions which we call “Classes.” During the course of each of these “Classes,” an expert we have hired to profess their knowledge will stand in a room and speak for a period of time about the subject in which they are an expert.

Students will be required to remember the important parts of these speeches. to ensure that they remember, it is suggested that students bring a pencil or pen and paper to class to write down the gist of the expert’s speech.

From time to time, these experts will give the learners a paper, upon which are printed questions concerning the expert’s speeches. Learners will be rated according to how well they are able to provide the answer to these questions from memory.

Other learning-related activities will include having the learners read books related to the subjects upon which the experts profess their knowledge. The learners will be required to write their own collection of information based upon the information in the books.

After four years of these activities, the learners will receive a certificate of diplomacy and will be granted the honor of Bachelorhood. In order to participate in these activities, potential learners will be required to give the college a certain amount of monies. After said payment, learners will be given the choice of subjects upon which they want to base the majority of their learning.
