Note:<888>10/14/98 Wednesday 8:30 P.M. EDT: This afternoon I went out at 3 P.M.. I drove east on Putnam Avenue and headed into Old Greenwich to Tod's Point. I walked the entire three mile walk around Tod's Point. I viewed the weather to the north from the large rock on the South East Point. I viewed the weather to the west from the South West Picnic Area. I had a small cigar there. I viewed the weather to the East from the North East area by the Life Guard Station. I viewed the weather to South by the North, South Facing Bench in the main beach area at the South West. I was able to survey the skies, and there was the usual air traffic that one sees on a nice day. I noticed almost the entire area except to the West had clouds on the horizon. I guess with the winds out of the west we are due for a few good days of beach walking weather, but with the type of winds and clouds one sees, anything could change. I returned west and drove down Greenwich Avenue. I chatted with a Swiss couple about the local environment in broken French English. I told them that the mosquitos have encephalytis. I mentioned I had been around both the International Red Cross and the American Red Cross. I pointed out the two Swans swimming around the harbor. I mentioned a few homes around the water. I chatted with another local about the Swiss perspective as it relates to Greenwich in maintaining neutrality during times of turbulence. I stopped by the Greenwich Library and chatted with one librarian as to whether they have changed the flight patterns out of Westchester Airport and have more aircraft flying over Greenwich. I chatted with a Swiss Businessman on Swiss trivia. He said Thailand is also neutral, along with Luxenbourg, Sweden, and I believe Andora. I mentioned that the Swiss Computer equipment is about 150% more expensive. I told the Swiss couple about Swiss activities around here including, Swiss Banking, Nestle including Perrier, Roche or Hoffman LaRoche which also owns Genetec. I believe Equinox is also Swiss. I suppose most major international companies have Swiss offices. I suggest that IBM and Microsoft should become Swiss companies since they have such large international presenses. I returned home and had some Goldfish crackers and diet Coca Cola, and about an hour after thinking I had a slice of ham, steamed red pepper, brocolli, and onion, and a potatoe with ice tea and Capacinno. I mentioned to people I looked for a hurricane heading for Florida last night instead I found a Typhoon heading for China. Well as far as I know it was another normal day in Greenwich. I noticed they were catching Blue Fish on Steamboat Road pier, but I did not see the lone fisherman at Tod's Point catching anything. I noticed about a dozen sailboats on the Sound along with a fast moving Yacht. I saw a tug boat with barges across the sound. I suppose it was an excellent fall day on the sound. Well have a good evening. I updated Scott's Index scopor01.htm .CIO

Note:<888>10/14/98 Wednesday 2:40 P.M. EDT: In continual test of the medical good faith in the community, I plan to have a flu vacine shot in the near future, so I don't catch the flu like I did last winter. The weather is nice today, so I plan to go out roaming around town in about an hour. CIO

Note:<888>10/14/98 Wednesday 1:35 P.M. EDT: General comment on Greenwich, Connecticut area. There seems to be a group practicing old psychological warfare techniques in the Greenwich, Connecticut area. If that is the case, medical facilites at Greenwich Hospital, although a first class hospital might have been compromised by sabotuers. I noticed on recent visits that the portable CAT SCAN machine in the truck trailer at the south entrance of the Greenwich Hospital, although it looks like a professional setup, has a high voltage cable coming out of an aluminum conduit to the truck. What looks suspicious is that the extremely high voltage cable has been left lying on the ground asphalt for the last two months which does not reflect a high degree of professionalism. Perhaps somebody stole the machine or it is a fake machine they move around the country. If one percieves medical conditions or records have been compromised, all I can recommend is storing medical records in a National Medical Records center or in a backup hospital such as the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota. I am not a medial professional, so I don't know the real status of overall situation, just my random observations. I will continue to maintian residence in area, since I am accustomed to the present status, although slightly irregular. CIO

Note:<888>10/14/98 Wednesday 12:55 A.M. EDT: I went out at 9:30 P.M.. I walked the lower section of Greenwich Avenue. It was not very busy since it had rained a bit. Basically the whole downtown was empty except for about 50 people working, dining, and walking. I chatted with one loca acquaintence whom teaches art that knows about Doug's widow in Manhattan. I suppose she should be moved. I smoked my last White Owl cigar. I did not observe anything out of the ordinary. It seemed to be the usual quiet Tuesday night. I stopped by the Grand Union and bought two Campbells Clam Chowder for .99 each, GU Mozarela 8 oz. for $1.59 each in case I want to make my own pizza, and two 12 packs of Diet Pepsi for $1.99 each plus .60 can deposit for a total of $10.58. I returned home and gossiped with one of my neighbors about local town events. I filed this report after having some ice tea and goldfish crackers. I did my laundry last night and I made ice tea. I suppose if the stockmarket goes down a bit, it might be less busy around here, since people will have less spending money. Well I made it through the recession from 1973 to 1983, so I suppose I will survive another recession. I suppose young professionals are worried about being laid off. Well if anything changes the current status in Greenwich, one will have to be flexable. As far I know I will continue my same routines. With my severe arthritis, I am not a very good outside observer on cold damp nights, I just go about my normal routines. Well back to a little net activity or maybe I will read. CIO

Note:<888>10/13/98 Tuesday 8:20 P.M. EDT: I stayed off the computer last night, and reflected on different versions of United States history as it has been written and interpreted. Realistically in the old days, they did not have very good communications so a lot of the facts and history was confused. Ultimately in a democracy the guardians of a country are those whom know how to maintain and defend it, while at the same time encouraging growth and immigration. Realistically we have a bit of room to grow here in America. I stayed up until about 7:30 A.M., and got up around 1 P.M.. I had breakfast of Kelloggs corn flakes, toast, vitamins, orange juice, and cappicino. I went out about 3 P.M. and stopped by Putnam Trust, Bank of New York and withdrew a new $20 bill from the money machine, and exchanged it for an old $20 bill. I went up to the four floor trust department and spoke with Nicholas Marcuso about the global volcanic situation and how it might affect world ecnomic forecasts. Basically cooler weather six months from now means cold during the planting season in the northern hemisphere, and cold during the harvest season in the southern hemisphere. For this winter, the clouds we have been getting if it were colder means more snow. However after Mt. St. Helens there was severe minus 20 F. cold in the Manhattan area, but little snow; and after Mount Penatubo, there were about a dozen snow falls including a 4 1/2 foot snow fall in this area. I still have no confirmation on any volcanic activity in the world, so it is all speculation. It would take about six months for global temperatures to drop a half degree to one degree which is significant, if there were any major volcanic activity. I suppose we all just have to wait and see. Today was dark and overcast and damp. I suppose every skier in the area is trying to figure out future ski conditions in the area and northern New England. It is hard to tell. I specualated with Nick that Oil futures might go up. I noticed in Scott's Index scopor01.htm was down today, and Monsanto was down 13 1/2 points after the American Home Products merger failed. I suppose now might be a good time to buy Monsanto stock, if one needed more. I went by the Hospital Thrift Shop and various staff members are planning a cruise down to the Carribean, and I am not sure what the weather conditions hold for the cruise. I went down Greenwich Avenue, and stopped by the tabacco shop across from the Greenwich Police station, and advised them in the tabacco industry they needed to watch for possible hurricane weather this season. I suppose if the Pelicans in Biscayne Bay, are still there in the morning and the evening, it means there is no bad weather expected, and if they withdraw from the waterfront, then one can expect poorer weather. I imagine migratory birds have the same instincts, and they will not head towards warmer climates until they are sure the hurricane season is over. With El Nina and possbile volcanic activity, it is hard to tell what the real story is. I stopped by Zyns and bought a five pack of buy three get two free of Marlboro lights, and a five minature cigar pack of Garcia Vega cavandish mild cigars. I had one in the town common, while a local observer was feeding the sea gulls. I drove down by the water on Steamboat Road, and briefed one long time resident about possible weather conditions down south. I chatted with a local fisherman about local weather. I stopped by the Greenwich library and read the local newspaper and read two computer newsweeklies. I chatted with a long time acquaintence about family members around the country, and he was thinking about doing some renovation work up north. I chatted with another regular library user, and briefed him. I mentioned that a lot of the old fallout shelters are probably filled with items like cases of wine, and they are not prepared to be used. I suppose, if one were fortunate to have a fall out shelter or root celler, one would have to think about means of exit during some sort of disaster. In other words if it were flooded or had and exit blocked one would be trapped. He mentioned one oil company had filled the ventalator pipe of one fallout shelter with oil, thinking it was an oil fill pipe. Of course we don't expect any political military disasters, we are worrying about natural disasters. Remember there are a lot of water storage areas to the north of town filled with lots of water which might overflow into lower lying areas south of them after a heavy rain fall or thaw. I returned home and had another small cigar outside chatting with a few of my local neighbors this evening. I watched the ABC evening news. I made a slice of heated ham, steamed brocolli, onion, and red pepper along with baked potatoe, and ice tea and Capacinno. While at Putnam Trust on the fourth floor, a construction crew was doing some partitioning work and firing a nail gun. I suppose not much is really happening around here, so I will do a little internet work this evening and possibly go out for a walk latter. Well have a good evening. CIO

Note:<888>10/12/98 Monday 11:30 P.M. EDT: I updated Scott's Index scopor01.htm . I am doing my laundry on the dry cycle. I am having a relaxing day, staying inside for a change as the weather gets colder. It seem pretty quiet. I chatted with one of my new neighbors who moved back from Florida whom is a long time Greenwich resident. It seems quiet and cool in the old neighborhood. I saw lights on at the skating rink, so the young folk must be practicing their skating already. I have not bothered cleaning up today, since I don't plan to go out. Well all quiet on this side of town. My arthritis is beginning to act up whenever I am out in the cool for longer periods of time, it cuts in and out. Well not much happening. I guess nothing happened volcanic wise, since I have recieved no reports on the internet, unless the field personnel are in the field and not filing reports. Maybe the recent report on Gernica has to do with the fact that the Metropolitan Museum has the Picasso Painting on Loan at the Prado Museum in Madrid, Spain. I think the painting was done to commemorate an event during the Spanish Revolution, it is so long ago I can't remember. Well time to fold laundry. CIO

Note:<888>10/12/98 Monday 11:05 A.M. EDT: I was up at 10 A.M. this morning. I had breakfast of scrambled eggs, ham, toast, orange juice, vitamins, and capacinno. I will do a little internet work now. The bank ATM was working last night. There are a number of aircraft in the Greenwich flyway recently. Today is a holiday when the old guard usually leave Nantucket to discover America. Not much to report on locally. The local librarian is retiring. I do not read the local paper when it is not available in the library. I did see a headline this weekend that the local mosquitoes have encephalis, so one has to watch themselves when outside. I also saw a report on CNN that one needs to get their annual flu shots. My sympathies to the family of Matthew Shepard whom was recently beaten to death and finally passed away Gay Wyoming College Student Dies After Beating . This report has the emai address for sending sympathies Suspect's Father Denies Wyoming Beating Hate Crime . The address is mailto:MShepard@Libra.PVH.Org . I traveled through the University of Wyoming once or twice in 1978 to 1980 on the way to California. It was frigid cold in October and people were wearing T-Shirts in 0 degrees F. weather. The people did not look hostile when I stopped by to use the facilities at the local Gym, and I noticed coming out of town, there were a lot of very skinny cowboys whom did not seem to eat much of the beef readily available. I noticed a Sinclair Oil refinery about 2 hours northwest of Larimee, Wynoming with a giant dinasaur; and at the time I did not even realize Sinclair Oil still existed. A family relative once claimed he had the Chairman of the Board of Sinclair Oil's Chair in his office in Tulsa. Well it goes to show when one travels outside of one's neighboring area without security, people can be hostile, which is why I always seem to live around adequate security. The friendliest people when I was traveling around the country incognito were a friendly group of truckers whom kept an eye on me with their CB radios as I crossed the country. One of my favorite old people Bill Westmoreland whom drives a truck has not been seen around recently, I suppose he is out on the road in the vastness of America. Once again give my sympathies to Mathew's family, members of the Sheperd family have lived here in Greenwich for a long time. CIO

Note:<888>10/11/98 Sunday 11:45 P.M. EDT: I finished cleaning the apartment and watering the plants about 5:30 P.M.. I chatted with a family member. I had a dinner guest come down for ham, steamed green beans red peppers and onions, potatoe, ice tea, and coffee. I went out about 8:30 P.M. for a short walk on a quiet night. I had a small cigar at the post office park. I chatted about soy beans with a young fellow from Viet Nam. It was a quiet night with a few citizens out and about town. I went by the Grand Union and bought GU whole milk half gallon for $1.67, I Can't Believe It's Not Butter $1.27, 3 Cans of Campbells Chunky Chowder at .99 for a total of $5.63. I also picked up a half carton of Marlboro Lights buy three get two free for $9 at the lower avenue news store. The wind is out of the north, so it is cooler. I suppose it might be a cooler winter. I have no idea whether there will be much snow. I was wondering whether Tropical Storm Lisa effected Bermuda or not. I am feeling a bit arthritic with the weather change, but the apartment is comfortable and I don't think the heat has come on yet. I am thinking of taking a few days off the computer and reading George Bush's and Brent Scowcroft's book "A World Transformed". I have always enjoyed reading, and I suppose it is about time I read something besides internet technology. Locals mystics seemed to have withdrawn from the region. As far as I know the winter winds have kept the city folk at home in the city, and the town is quiet as usual for this time of the year. A few die hard observers and walkers were floating about town. Well as far as I know, there is not much to report here from Sleepy Hollow. CIO

Note:<888>10/11/98 Sunday 2:40 P.M. EDT: I can't remember what I did yesterday, I think I tried to relax and enjoy the weekend. I went out in the evening about 7:30 P.M.. I stopped by the ATM machine at Putnam Trust, and although I have funds in my account it did not work for some odd reason. I stopped by Zyns and confired on the Datong Volcano with one of its employees. I bought buy three get two free of Marlboro lights for $9. I sat out and had a Garcia Vega light cigar. I chatted with Carlos from Gurnica, Spain about Lanzerote and traveling through there in the old days. I mentioned I knew all about the machine gun bullet holes in the old churches in Europe from my church tours in the old days. I gave him a quick briefing on volcanic activity. He told me he had to chat with the local priest. He withheld his little finger when we shook hands which is an old world custom. I chatted with a local priest of the Episcopal Church about a former church employee whom went to Germany. I chatted with a Professional Caddy from Florida about it might be too soon to go down there. I chatted with a local hard working representative of the German people about elder affairs. I walked the entire length of Greenwich Avenue about 1 1/2 times. I chatted with the bouncer of the dome restaurant about Volcanos, and he was conversant since he is German and Phillipino. At the top of Greenwich Avenue, there was a bright I assume lightning flash off in the North West and a muffled thunder sound. I walked hurriedly back down to the bottom of the Avenue mentioning lightning to a few people. I metioned it to one patron with a cellphone at Versailles Restaurant and a few younger people lingering. After walking to the bottom area of Greenwich Avenue, I drove down to the bottom of Steamboat Roand and mentioned lightning to the fisherman. They had a couple of large blue fish they had caught. I heard some of the old guard enjoying themselves on the upstairs terrace of the Indian Harbor Yacht Club watching the weather. I surveyed the cloud formations that looked ominous in all directions. I returned home about 10 P.M. instead of working on the computer, I thought until about 6 A.M. in the morning reviewing various past historical data. I remembered a figure in history Raj Mikan from about 400 years ago when the British first entered into India. I also tried to remember some of the exerpts of the Dorthy Chandler Doomsday Script, and how it might be updated to a more current version. Basically when one starts thinking about other historical items and history, a lot of the current history being written does not seem that important. It was a moderately cool and pleasent evening. I slept until about 1 P.M. this afternoon. I had breakfast of Kellogg's Corn Flakes, toast, vitamins, orange juice, and coffee. I have to do my Sunday cleaning. Tomorrow Monday is Columbus Day, a holiday in America. I saw it mentioned recently that a descendant of Christopher Columbus is an Admiral in the Spanish Navy. Well back to house cleaning. CIO

Note:<888>10/10/98 Saturday 10:00 A.M. EDT: I rested on Friday from about 9 A.M. to I don't know when. I recall going out about 1 P.M.. I stopped by the Hospital Thrift shop and chatted with the local staff about quaint village topics. I went down by CVS and bought Lysol Spray for $2.99, Garcia Vega Cavandish Wiffs for $1.77 for 5 pack, two Djeep Red lighters for $1.59 each or $3.18 total, and a black comb for .50 plus .54 Connecticut sales tax for a total of $9.58. While at the Hospital Thrift Shop earlier, I chatted with a local postman about the old glass barometers that somebody had donated to the thrift shop with out the necessary liguid. One would have to research the what liquids one puts in an old glass barometer setup. I also noticed some gift items from India including handmade paper urns and pineapple door knockers. If one looks closely one sees an interesting variety of items in any thrift shop. After CVS I drove down by the water and surveyed the fisherman. One gentleman fishing was from Roma, Italia. I spoke with him in French about the various birds in the area, and if one were interested in whether it is safe to migrate down to Florida during the hurricane season, one can follow the birds in various flyways and see if they have migrated down to Florida yet. A lot of animals like birds seem to have common sense, as regards the whether and know when it is safe to migrate down to Florida. The local birds inucluding sea gulls, crows, comerents, and sparrows were out in the drizzly rain yesterday at high tide. The local fisherman at high tide in the rain were pulling in a bumper haul of large blue fish, so I guess the Blues are running on Steamboat Road at high tide. I saw one hefty fisherman pull out about a dozen Blues on a trout line out of the water he had caught. I stopped by the library and chatted with a local ornathologist about various environmental activities. I mentioned I had seen a number of Red and Yellow license plates from New Mexico in the area. I read the local paper in the library. I chatted with a young blond fellow while leaving the library about Navy attire and I said I did not like taking orders, so I volonteer for the "International Red Cross". I returned home and had a White Owl small cigar. I sat around most the evening and early morning until about 2:30 A.M., not working on the computer and reflecting about other civilizations. I read a couple of paragraphs on the United States Constitution, of course that version is as it was ammended up until about 1978 in the Academic America Encyclopedia that I have. I believe Connecticut is called "The Constitution State". I read a little about Carthidge and the Phenicians, who had barbaric religious practices which lead to the decline of their civilization. I actually enjoy reading encyclopedias since they refresh the memory, and I have not had the time to do that in many years. I meditated on certain acquaintences and what they might be doing in other parts of the world of course it is all in the minds imagination, one never really knows. Well I awoke about 8 A.M., and I made breakfast of ham and mushroom omelet, toast, vitamins, orange juice, and cappacino. I updated this report. It is nice to take time off the computer and enjoy some of our more traditional routines like relaxing on the weekend, and letting the world pass us by. Well have an enjoyable early fall day. I imagine there might some harvest festivals coming up soon. I also updated Scott's Index www.mikescott.net/scopor01.htm . CIO

Note:<888>10/09/98 Friday 5:55 A.M. EDT: I went to bed at 9 P.M.. I recieved a call about 9:30 P.M. from a Long Island resident. We chatted for about a half hour about Chinese activities. I slept until 5 A.M.. I had Kelloggs Corn flakes, toast, vitamin, orange juice, and Capacinno for breakfast. I believe the Kelloggs family are Swiss. Another Swiss company is Nestle which owns Nescafe along with Perrier which has its offices across the street from my residence. Local Swiss Armament that I have in reserve includes a Swiss Cross Bow, but I have no arrows and a yellow and red Swiss Army Knief that I bought last time I stopped by Geneva, Switzerland for about 30 Swiss Francs at a Sportsman shop near the University of Geneva. I authorize local observer on the Continent traveling incognito to enter Switzerland and maintain residence at family residence there, and advise him to volonteer for the "International Red Cross" after he learns his way around the territory. Since he grew up on top of a mountain, he should be very comfortable maintaining the Crow Watch in Switzerland.

I stopped by the Hospital Thrift Shop. I drove down Steamboat Road and observed the rain storm along the Sound. I stopped by the Library and read the local newspaper. I checked out "A World Transformed" by George Bush and Brent Scowcroft. I stopped by the Grand Union and bought two Tropicana Ruby Red Orange Juice for $1.99 each $3.98 total, I bought a three pack of Diamond wooden safety matches 250 each in a box for $2.39, (they lite a pipe better), I bought 16 packs of Ramen noodles for $4, two boxes of Ronzoni Spinich noodles $1.59 for $3.18 total, a head of brocolli .99, a avacado .99, Ragu Parmesian Garlic sauce $2.19, a box of Salt Sense $1.25, two Stauffer's large Lasagna $2.99 each, a Tobin's First Prize Carvemaster Ham at .99 pound for $3.47, Red Peppers at .99 a pound $1.50, I Can't Believe It's Not Butter $1.29, Green Beans at .99 a pound .96, Tropicana Ruby Red Grapefruit Juice $1.99, a Snickers Bar .55 for a total of $33.67. I returned home and put away the groceries. I went out and had a small Garcia Vega cigar, and watched the rain. I went upstairs and ate one of the Stauffer's Lasagnas. I am watching the ABC evening news. I will update Scott's Index scopor01.htm .

I have been snacking on Ramen noodles without the flavor packet which has MSG, and instead adding Soy Sauce. I surfed a few television news stories. I was emailed about a site in Greenwich which is very interesting Wright Research Center . I suppose it is beginning to become that quiet time of year. Well I suppose we could go kidnap all the internet gurus over at the Javits Convention Center and have them come out here and enjoy raking leaves this time of year, once they begin to fall. Well all seems quiet. I saw an interesting news story on the news about how intertwined the Brazilian economy is with the United States economy in terms of international business, but alas I don't speak Portugese, but I suppose a few bean counters might know a word or two of English.
