I've now got the DVD. I really liked this Anime. Very
pleasing to the eye and some of the detail in the script is
great.

Just wondering what those of you who have seen this thought
about it?

Anyone like Carl Craig? I have his Paperclip People album
'the Secret Tapes of Dr Eich'. Its really good. I wonder if
anyone can recommend anything else by him. I also have the
Innerzone Orchestra album.

Ehh, Jonesy, you have cracked the way to get on the web
during the day, eh? GREAT!!! Funny you mentioned Paperclip
people, I just listened to it two days ago in the bluebox.

I shouldn't be here. I'm being sneaky. I'm just bored.
Expect an equally boring email in a minute.

As I literally sat down before my computer on the afternoon
of Tuesday 11th September 2001, I had the intention of
beginning a new series of thoughts, based on Biblical
journeys. The phone rang, it was my wife to tell me to turn
the radio on, we have family and friends in the USA and as I
listened and heard the tragic news that came in from the
United States of America I was stunned. Both Gail and I
listened in the office in unbelief at the enormity of the
events unfolding in New York, Washington and Pennsylvania.
Later in the evening I saw the events on television.
Having worked in the construction industry for most of my
adult life and knowing the safety factors that are provided
for by structural engineers I was amazed by both the
physical demolition of three huge buildings and the scale of
human loss. What an awesome way in which to be reminded of
both the frailty and brevity of life!
This morning, Wednesday, I hear the stories of human drama
and tragedy. People talking to their families from mobile
phones on the aircraft that are about to become weapons of
mass destruction. Others calling for help from under the
wreckage of buildings. My heart grieves for the shear
helplessness of the situation.
The gates of eternity are open for the many today. These
were people at work like you and I, they had left home in
the morning to go about their daily toil, with no idea of
what the day held for them. No doubt many amongst the fallen
were Christians at work like you and me. Our faith in the
Lord Jesus Christ, gives us a wonderful hope, but it does
not protect us from the acts of sinful man. Oh please be
challenged by this demonstration of the brevity of life and
the nearness of eternity.
The World Trade Centre and all of the Wall Street Finance
District of New York together with the Pentagon in
Washington are symbols of the wealth and power of that great
nation of states. Whoever planned the attack knew exactly
where to inflict the greatest damage, both in terms of
co-lateral impact and national pride.
Many wil

Many will grieve and mourn; some will shake their fists at
God for allowing this to happen; others will simply and
quietly struggle to come to terms with the whole tragic
event.
Firstly, our prayers and thoughts must go out to those
grieving families and hurting people of all nations who will
have been affected and touched by this huge disaster.
But, we have to learn something too; yes a Sovereign God did
allow these events to happen and thousands of lives to be
taken. However, the motive for the attack and the symbols
that were the object of the disaster were strictly earthly
and human. The World Trade Centre represented the wealth and
power of man, the Pentagon the might of man. The motives for
the attack were no doubt the constant human struggle between
wealth and poverty, greed and hatred.
The bottom line is that most of mankind has dealt God out of
most of their lives. I am not suggesting for one moment that
He is against the creation of wealth; we have sufficient
Biblical evidence to indicate that He approves of wealth
creation, but it is how and where that wealth and power is
used and where it figures in our lives.
We have taken our eyes away from our first love, I can’t
remember which book it was, but I know it was written by
Charles Swindoll, He talked about the horizontal and
vertical perspectives values of man. He suggests that we are
always looking around us and allowing ourselves to be drawn
along by the world, it is only when we raise our eyes above
the horizon and look to Jesus, the Author and Finisher of
our faith that we see things in the right perspective. I
hope this awful and tragic disaster will remind us of the
righteous and just nature of God and also that He is the God
who constantly reveals His own unique love for us, He
demonstrated this love for us by sending His only begotten
Son to die for us, even whilst we were still sinners.
Let me conclude with the following thought:
Paul wrote to the Corinthians, ‘Blessed be God, even the
Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mer

Carl Craig is ace! Get his 69 album "The sound of music",
many consider it the sgt.pepper of detroit techno. I also
love his remix stuff so check out "Designer Music". His
label is called "Planet e"
