Talk:21st Century Science and Technology

message: Someone please add that this alleged "technology and science" magazine has never managed anything else than spewing forth pseudo-scientific garbage. - Peter Bjørn Perlsø 00:14, 27 October 2006 (UTC)

text: Agree with User:Ragesoss that this magazine is notable, even if not reputable. In particular, it frequently turns up as a source for bogus material in other articles, so we need to have an easy way of pointing out that it's covered by the general LaRouche policy. To User:DJSupreme23, I created the page, and I thought it was pretty clear that it has, as you say, never managed anything else than spewing forth pseudo-scientific garbage, but maybe we should spell this out  a bit more.

message: A fellow editor has requested a citation for the statement that this magazine, the predecessor to 21st Century Science and Technology, was shut down by the the federal authorities. I found this statement here yesterday. However, today this page appears to contain no information, so for as long as that is an option, the text will have to be retrieved from Google's cache. Since this is the only web citation I can currently locate, I will present the full text which pertains to the claim:
:WASHINGTON—A monthly science magazine that was shut down by the federal government has been reborn under a new name.
:21st Century Science and Technology is scheduled to appear on newsstands this month as the successor to Fusion magazine, a monthly publication on fusion energy with close ties to political activist Lyndon LaRouche. The offices and bank accounts of Fusion were seized last April by U.S. marshals in connection with a federal indictment for credit card fraud brought against various organizations operated by LaRouche and his supporters.
:"The contents will be exactly like Fusion,” said Merge Hecht, managing editor of both publications. Added editor-in-chief Carol White, “Other magazines tell you about the impossibility of progress because of the limits to growth and finite resources. 21st Century will document the possibility of progress and man’s unique capacity to create new resources.”
:The first issue, dated March/ April, features a cover story on travel to Mars using fusion propulsion and articles on space farming and the biological and political implications of radio frequency weapons. Subscriptions to the bi-monthly, 64-page magazine are $20 for six issues, and checks can be sent to P.O. Box 65473, Washington, D.C. 20035.
This info is added to a 1988 article called AIDS Seen As Job Hazard In Some Labs. 
I also read in another location which I cannot remember now, that this closing down was part of a concerted action taken against LaRouche's organization on charges of tax fraud. __meco 07:15, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
