- -Several years ago (don't ask me how many) there were *several* postings,
- -including excerpts from British newspapers, about the spate of "suicides" and
- -"accidental deaths" of British space scientists in comp.risks. If anybody is
- -really interested in doing the research, instead of just sarcastically
- -dismissing them as crackpot conspiracy fodder, they can look it up in the
- -Risks archive.

- Is there any reason to think it *isn't* just the same sort of thing that
- happened to Wall Street brokers in 1929? :-(
