"slab of rock"

THAT FINALLY MAKES SENSE

BEFORE that mainstream-media tv-news report about that recent collision at sea in the Caribbean

BEFORE THAT, "Bridge to port" the commanding officer barked at me on the bridge of the ship, those visions in my sleeping-dream

One brief image of a person that made me think he was that actor Chris Rock

"Oh", I thought, I am supposed to subdue him, which I did easily and carried him down to a lower deck. Several times after those visions, I thought it might been a vision caused by my earlier comments about "bitch slap"

See, it was the steps of the ladder

They seemed to be literally slabs of rock. And like momentary details in that forgettable scene in this SG-1 episode were smooth with jagged edges. So that made no sense to me that I would see that in a sleeping-dream

"Take him to sick bay", ordered the Captain and I realized he had followed me down the ladder to the lower deck, "He's not going to sue us".

Those are the only details I recall now, decided then to not make any notes about it.

[Daniel and Carter enter the room and start looking around]

DANIEL
I think this is a lab.

CARTER
How do you know?

DANIEL
(Examining items on a long table.)
These are thing that they brought back through the Stargate from other planets to study. They're all tagged. This is a Turkanese mask. This is a clay cone from Lagash with cuneiform symbols on it.

O'NEILL

Carter! Daniel!

"Final Appeal"

Darkness? Dr, Givens, is that how you see it? I'm inclined to see the light, the light in the eyes of children who climb trees and count the stars unobscured by clouds and toxic pollution, Have we lost something, by giving up our machines, Doctor? No doubt, we have, But look what we've gained, Families sit around the hearth at night, They don't stare blankly at jittering electronic images, They talk to one another, Human interaction is no longer obsolete, Life is less complicated, We've gone back to simpler pleasures, simpler times

"Final Appeal"

The petitioner's brief contends that the anti-technological codes are in violation of both the spirit and the letter of the constitution, Now, I draw your attention to a phrase from the preamble to that venerable document, which describes its all embracing purpose to promote the general welfare, These laws in question were designed to protect, to nurture, to shelter the flickering candle of civilization from the howling winds of war

CATHERINE
Excuse me, I know you're a little busy right now.

O'NEILL
It's all right, Catherine. What is it?

CATHERINE
I think you should meet the young man who came through the Gate, Jack.

O'NEILL
Now?

CATHERINE
How much time do we have?

O'NEILL
Why?

CATHERINE
(a bit freaked out)
He ... knows things.

REPORT ON SPYING RELEASED BY C.I.A.

By NICHOLAS M. HORROCK JULY 9, 1975

WASHINGTON, July 8—The Central Intelligence Agency made a major build-up of its domestic intelligence operation during the Administration of President Nixon, according to documents released by the C.I.A. for the first time tonight.

In an unexpected disclosure, the C.I.A. made public a report that its director, William E. Colby, made to President Ford last Dec. 24. This report is a portion of an internal analysis of the agency's involvement in illegal domestic intelligence operations and other wrongdoing compiled at the request of Mr. Colby's predecessor, James R. Schlesinger, in May, 1973. Mr. Schlesinger is now the Secretary of Defense.

Symington Briefed

According to these newly released documents, two Congressional figures, Senator Stuart Symington, Democrat of Mis souri, and Representative Lucien N. Nedzi, Democrat of Michigan, were briefed on the details more than two years ago.

This new material contained several disclosures:

According to a memorandum dated June 1, 1972, the major increase in the staff and facilities of the Special Operations Group came after Mr. Nixon had taken office on Jan. 20, 1969. The unit was the core of a domestic C.I.A. intelligence operation that has come under criticism for violating the agency's legal charter, which forbids the C.I.A. to engage in spyping within the United States.

This memorandum revealed that the major formal strength of the unit was provided in mid-1969, when 36 positions were authorized, and increased in the spring of 1971, when another 18 positions were authorized. Although those operations, code-named CHAOS within the C.I.A., were begun under President Lyndon B. Johnson in 1967, this memorandum indicates that they gained their breadth under President Nixon. Before that the operation had two full-time professions staff members.

The documents disclosed that the C.I.A. recruited “paid informants” among construction crews working on its headquarters in 1960 and 1961 in order to prevent foreign intelligence services from planting secret electronic listening devices.

The documents also revealed a memorandum dated Aug. 15, 1967, in which the head of covert operations for C.I.A. at the time, Thomas H. Karamessines, suggested to C.I.A. officials that Harry Rositzke and Richard Ober, head what later became known as CHAOS. One or both of them had long been rumored to have 10 the super-secret domestic Operations.
