U.S. NATIONAL DEBT CLOCK
The Outstanding Public Debt as of 04 Apr 2011 at 09:46:52 PM GMT is:
$ 1 4 , 2 6 3 , 4 1 7 , 0 9 2 , 8 7 1 . 5 2
The estimated population of the United States is 310,327,053
so each citizen's share of this debt is $45,962.53.
The National Debt has continued to increase an average of
$4.09 billion per day since September 28, 2007!
Basically, the IRI is what is known as a phased array transmitter. It is designed to transmit a narrow beam of high power radio signals in the 2.8 to 10 MHz frequency range. Its antenna is built on a gravel pad having dimensions of 1000' x 1200' (about 33 acres). There are 180 towers, 72' in height mounted on thermopiles spaced 80' apart in a 12 x 15 rectangular grid. Each tower supports near its top, two pairs of crossed dipole antennas, one for the low band (2.8 to 8.3 MHz), the other for the high band (7 to 10 MHz). The antenna system is surrounded by an exclusion fence to prevent possible damage to the antenna towers or harm to large animals
In addition to supporting BAE Systems and its Joint Venture organisations in the achievement of tactical and strategic technology objectives, the ATC has a vast network of relationships with external organisations including the UK Ministry of Defence, US Department of Defense, European Space Agency, Universities and other research and product organisations.
These activity programmes involve multi-disciplinary teams drawn from across the ATC and key business units to ensure the technologies and products developed support current and future business growth. The programmes currently instigated cover areas such as Micro and Nano technologies, Autonomous Systems, Battlespace Information and Knowledge, BioFutures and Directed Energy Warfare. In addition, an Underpinning Technology programme addressing generic technologies provides a solid basis for future investment planning.
Technical expertise and procurement services as required for the management, administration and evaluation of the program are being provided cooperatively by the Air Force (Air Force Research Laboratory), the Navy (Office of Naval Research and Naval Research Laboratory), and the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency. Since the HAARP facility consists of many individual items of scientific equipment, both large and small, there is a considerable list of commercial, academic and government organizations which are contributing to the building of the facility by developing scientific diagnostic instrumentation and by providing guidance in the specification, design and development of the IRI. BAE Advanced Technologies (BAEAT) is the prime contractor for the design and construction of the IRI. Other organizations which have contributed to the program include the University of Alaska, Stanford University, Cornell University, University of Massachusetts, UCLA, MIT, Dartmouth University, Clemson University, Penn State University, University of Tulsa, University of Maryland, SRI International, Northwest Research Associates, Inc., and Geospace, Inc.

Do you really think that because it officially can´t go below 2.8, it really can´t get to 2.5?
Seems like a good alibi for them.

If you don´t like this sort of crowd, maybe you shouldn´t come here.
The subject material was explained pretty well, and it was not that hard.
If you aren´t capable of grasping at least the idea behind it, maybe you should tone it down a bit, it makes you look like an ignorant loudmouth.
Perhaps i do. But again, you look like a paranoid with too much time on his hands and a great wish to blame natural disasters on someone, anyone. And of course the favorite target being the US.

And dont kid yourself, unless you are both an expert on electronics and a geophysicist, you truely dont grasp it either. It took scientists much smarter than both you and I to figure this stuff out. If you think you understand it after reading a few articles, your delusional as well.

In short, if haarp was the tool worthy of the accusations, the entire globe would know when it was being used just by the sound it would make. This is hype. read...study...learn.(and no I'm not being a smartass)
