It looks as if the flyer clippings would be dated between 1955 and 1963.

If you read through the second page you'll notice talk about negotiations for the 'Limited Test Ban Treaty' which went into effect in 1963. The negotiations began in 1955.

"Cooper was launched into space on May 15, 1963 aboard the Mercury-Atlas 9 (Faith 7) spacecraft, the last Mercury mission. He orbited the Earth 22 times and logged more time in space than all five previous Mercury astronauts combined β€" 34 hours, 19 minutes and 49 seconds"

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gordon_Cooper

Tomorrow is the anniversary of alleged Capt. "Coop" Cooper's launch into space. Perhaps a new revelation will be made? Site revealed?

New Behavior at ScariestThingIEverSaw?

Maybe it's just me, but I've tried 3 different browsers this morning on www.scariestthingieversaw.com, and on all three (despite clearing the cache), I can't get as far as I did last night. Now I just get 4 lines after the "countdown" section is complete, and it sits there unresponsive. I now only see the original 3 commands, and I don't get the "Connection Lost" dialog I was getting last night after the countdown finished and before clearing the cache.

I haven't read all of the text of the page, so this is just going off what people have said: If you are saying that the Limited Test Ban Treaty has not been signed yet, according to the paper, that dates for sure before october 10th 1963. And other people have said (just checked, and it is for sure) that the large text is a quote from Kennedy's radio and television address concerning the Nuclear Test Ban Treaty Speech, July 26th 1963. So if indeed the treaty hadn't been signed yet, this is positively from between July 26 and October 10, 1963.

Actually maybe even a smaller term depending on what is said. It was signed by the countries involved august 5th, and ratified by congress september 24th.

I can still get exactly as far as last night. I can get to both the ".print rscom8" and ".reenter" sections, and they both still do what they did last night. Maybe they were just updating for a minute.

I think it might be just you guys, I got it to go through all of the same functions it did last night and it is a newly opened window.

I didn't realize the text was from Kennedy's address. If so then it would definitely date around end of July, 1963. That would also fit in for timing with the Gordon Cooper ad on page 1, as he would have already been launched into space earlier that year. But yes, I believe the article is definitely before the treaty was signed.

For confirmation, check here:
http://www.ratical.org/co-globalize/JFK072663.html

Do a find on page for the word "Khrushchev" and you can link up the words in his speech to the words in large print on the newspaper. That is for sure a match. It stands to reason that they would write about his speech soon after it was given, and not a few months after when it is old new, but not neccesarily. The only thing I don't know is if it is for sure before the treaty is in place, because I haven't read the whole thing (I'm lazy).

Launch was at 0604 PDT/ 1304 GMT on May 15, 1963. Landing was 1624 PDT/ 2324 GMT May 16, 1963.

Just throwing out possibilities, I'm new to this so I apologize if this is way off track or distracting Smile

I have tried every connotation I can think of after typing .REENTER and I'm getting nowhere Incredibly fast. Also haven't yet found a use for .comt or .exec.

I've used the PDP -11 simulation hand book and the link posted eariler, no where does it say about device. Where it does the codes dont work.

I wonder if blocking out the quote from Khrushchev has anything to do with this:
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/asia/china/7720461/USSR-planned-nuclear-attack-on-China-in-1969.html

USSR Planned Nuclear Attack on China. (Happened in 1969)

I don't speak Russian, so I can't search for the translated quote very well.

Babelfish gives this "ΠΎΡΡ‚Π°Π²ΡˆΠΈΠΉΡΡ Π² ΠΆΠΈΠ²Ρ‹Ρ… ΠΏΠΎΠ·Π°Π²ΠΈΠ΄ΠΎΠ²Π°Π»ΠΈ Π±Ρ‹ ΡƒΠΌΠ΅Ρ€ΡˆΠΈΠΌ" which im sure is not correct.

edit: The timeline doesn't work, though. If the JFK speech was 1963 and the row between Russia and China was in 1969...
