           "The military is going to give the ionosphere a big kick and see what happens."
           Clare Zickuhr, formerly of Anchorage, Alaska, founder of NO HAARP.
           They're like boys playing with a sharp stick, finding a sleeping bear and poking it
                           in the butt to see what's going to happen."

                  At an age of about fifty years, Clare Zickuhr took time for assessment, and
           was satisfied as he looked around in the early 1990's. He had worked his way through
           data management jobs to a position as accountant for a multinational oil company,
           ARCO. The good life included hosting friends in a 3,000 square foot house on the
           bluff outside Anchorage, with a wall of windows overlooking Cook Inlet. And
           watching Beluga  whales  romp  in  the  inlet, or  standing  beside  his  wife Barbara  in
           companionable silence, contemplating a panoramic sunset over a distant mountain
           range. Barbara was content with her own range of interests, from collecting art to
           studying medical anthropology.

                  That  the  Zickuhrs  would  become  activists  in  an  eclectic  group  of
           environmentalists was too foreign a possibility to consider. A visit from a neighbor
           in October of 1993 changed their serene existence, however. Jim, a pilot with Alaska
           Airlines, came over one night and mentioned that at a pilots' meeting he had heard
           about a government project called HAARP that was going up "in the bush" northeast
           of Anchorage. Jim knew Clare was a ham radio operator who spent a couple of nights
           a week closeted with his shortwave equipment and that he ran three ham-nets. Jim
           bunded him a flyer which said HAARP was an acronym chosen by military agencies to
           name their project, which would include a large array of antennae on the ground
           beaming a billion watts of electromagnetic power - at radio frequencies - up through
           the atmosphere. It would be the biggest zapper in the world! Even if it didn't get
           beyond the megawatt (millions of watts) stage, such a transmitter was certain to
           interfere with communications in the bush. People in remote areas of Alaska rely on
           radios for life or death calls such as for a Medivac aircraft to save a child's life.

                  Jim wondered what electronic interference from HAARP could do to onboard
           systems on the jets which he pilots Clare listened to his worries about aircraft that are
           controlled by remote operation instead of having direct cable levering rudders and
           other equipment. Such a craft could be more susceptible to a big blast of energy that
           might lock it into position or over ride the remote control. Reassurances from the
           Federal Aviation Administration reported in the media were not the last word as far as
           pilots were concerned.

                  That night when Zickuhr sat down in front of his shortwave apparatus and
           went on the air, he asked other ham radio operators if they had heard about the HAARP
