Magazine Overview
This document is the 3/1998 issue of the "Newsletter KPU," a publication from the Czech organization KPU (presumably an acronym related to paranormal or anomalous phenomena research). The issue is dated 1998 and is written in Czech. It announces an innovative format for the newsletter, with the first 2-3 pages intended for all members and subsequent pages tailored to specific regional groups within the Czech Republic. This new structure aims to enable each branch to regularly announce its events, meeting locations, and contact addresses, effectively serving as a bulletin for individual organizational elements of KPU. The newsletter also mentions inviting collaboration from other organizations involved with anomalous phenomena, amateur astronomy, and sci-fi clubs.
Content Highlights
Local Mysteries and Phenomena
The newsletter is soliciting information from members about local mysteries and locations that feature disputed questions, unsolved problems, archaeological and historical curiosities, legendary sites, or places associated with the emergence of anomalous phenomena. This initiative aims to compile a list of mysterious and enigmatic places and events tied to specific localities.
"Conversations with the Enlightened from Space"
It is noted that the third installment of "Conversations with the Enlightened from Space" has been received. This segment includes a statement from KPU regarding these types of contacts, referencing an article in ZAZ 2/1998 and an internet source. The text also humorously remarks on the proliferation of such "contacts" in the Czech Republic, with specific mentions of individuals named Ivona and Ilona P. from Telč, who presented their "contacts" at an event called "Pyramide '98." The upcoming "Conversations" installment is expected to feature a report from TV Nova editor Klim, potentially for a segment titled "Na vlastní oci" (On My Own Eyes).
Investigation of Stary Hrad
Following an open letter from Ivana Vasek, a team of experts was offered to investigate Stary Hrad u Podbrance. This offer was contingent on Vasek covering travel expenses and accepting the conclusions of the archaeologists and geologists involved. The weekly magazine "Kvety" is also planning a similar expedition, and cooperation has been established with them for this purpose.
Copyright and Geopathic Zones
The newsletter appeals to individuals who have experienced copyright infringements regarding their photographs or articles in various publications. It requests them to write in so that a coordinated approach can be taken. Additionally, there is a growing discussion about "resenomii," a concept promoted by Ing. V. Kubes along with his device. Members are encouraged to share any knowledge or experiences related to this device or theory, particularly any agreements or discrepancies with theories about geopathogenic zones or their attributes, as the newsletter is preparing material on this topic.
UFO CD-ROM Titles and Military Service
Those responsible for preparing the announced CD-ROM titles on UFOs and Czech megaliths, scheduled for release at the end of the year, apologize for delays. These delays are attributed to the discovery of new facts that they did not want to withhold from users. The newsletter extends well wishes to all members beginning their mandatory military service, wishing them success and a swift return to civilian life.
Megalith Section Meeting and Dowsing
The Megalith section is planning a meeting in the village of Hodejov in the Strakonicko region during the summer period, specifically from July 31 to August 2, 1998. This meeting will include excursions to nearby megalithic sites. Accommodation options include tents and nearby buildings, with kitchen facilities and personal hygiene services available. Participants are asked to confirm their attendance by phone. The section also plans excursions to various locations in Bohemia and Moravia.
Passing of Stanislav Hruda
With deep sorrow, the newsletter announces the death of Stanislav Hruda on May 8, 1998. Hruda was the organizer and instructor of the first and most qualified dowsing courses in Rudolec. His death occurred while he was working on a publication about dowsing. The newsletter promises to revisit his work in a future issue and pays tribute to his memory.
ZAZ Magazine Preview
The new issue of ZAZ magazine, 2/1998, is highlighted.
