Snowball Conspiracy info:

from http://www.abovetopsecret.com/forum/thread51056/pg36 (that page
and the following are full of info on the hoax, do a search for
"Aussibloke" in Google if you want more. MP3 of it can be found as
well.)

"Want to be paranoid about something akin to Planet X showing up
before November? Here's a snip which I received by email yesterday - a
bit aged, but interesting nevertheless:

A member of our ham radio club intercepted this transmission and
shared it with a few of us. He made a digital recording of it. The
transmissions took place on 1-26-04 staring at 0:5:00 UTC. The
frequency was 11.176 mhz, USB.

The conversation is between SNOWBALL NET and another station. We
assume SNOWBALL is the network operator.

Here is a transcript:

SNOWBALL NET: Snowball Net comms check. All stations, clock sync,
(pause) impact at minus 146 days, 5 hours UTC. Standby for ACC link
(could have been ACD).

Burst of digital data?

Burrow: SNOWBALL This is BURROW (could be Burro as in donkey). You are
not secure? repeat not secure ? go green ? go green ?

Bursts of white noise follow for approximately 3 minutes.

Copies of this have been posted on several ham boards and have been
sent to Popular Communications Magazine".


A well-crafted hoax from a group of individuals that thought it would
be funny to test the conspiracy theory social club and get their
reaction.
