Subject: MI5 Persecution: Neil Fox (Nov/1998) (6389)

Foxy's Showtime on Capital FM 25/11/98 7.35pm

Certainty level: 100%

This one, I can say with absolute certainty, is about me. It was recorded
on my Sony Recording Walkman on the evening of Wednesday 25 November 1998.
It doesn't mention me by name, so the objective observer might have trouble
understanding why I'm so sure it's about me. I'm sure, because the
harassment had restarted over the period when this piece was broadcast, and
what Capital transmitted would have been in context with events at the time.
(Sorry if that explanation is somewhat opaque, but I don't really want to
embarrass myself by giving an explanation in detail, and an intelligent
reader should be able to work it out for him/her self.)

This isn't the first time Capital have "got at" me; they were doing so
right at the very beginning in summer 1990, when they said, "if he listens
to Capital then he can't be all bad"; and Tarrant made remarks about me
in his breakfast show in spring 1994, when he said, "you know this bloke?
he says we're trying to kill him. We should be done for attempted
manslaughter."

Unfortunately I didn't record those previous, much more conclusive
instances of harassment by Capital DJs, and Capital Radio tells me they
only keep recordings for three months. But lately I've been recording
everything, and here is one product of that recording.

Neil Fox was introducing some petite Swedish songstress, sounded like
Amelia, when he said something about her petite-ness ;

"she's a big big girl, actually she's really about tiny, she's this big,
would you say what less than....."

then one of his studio staff shouted, "six inches"

then Fox laughed and said, "less than a meter tall, definitely"

What I think the "six inches" referred to should be obvious. I think it's
sexual abuse directed at me.

Also there were a lot of words like "crazy", "mad" etc on this programme,
which reinforced my belief that this was on purpose directed at myself.

I think Fox may be something of an unwilling participant in this abuse, he
doesn't want to be an abuser but the persecutors are using his show and
his staff to get at me. This is not the first time this sort of thing has
happened from his show; and my guess is that it won't be the last

Most of this is a bit over my head, but if you started at 1064 and it's now
1022, is it possible to calculate the present alchohol % vol?

Here is a link I use when I need to refresh my memory.

Yes. Promash says it's 5.56% ABV or 4.3% ABW.

Thanks Wayne, I was thinking that the max tolerance of the yeast had been
reached and stalled the ferment, but obviously 5.56% ABV, wouldn't be
anywhere near high enough.

Your beer would still be underattenuated for that mash temperature and
grist. It sounds like you didn't take an original gravity reading,
though, so who knows? This beer ought to finish pretty dry, though.

If you *did* take a reading, but don't trust your hydrometer, see if
it's accurate in water. If it is, then the reading is at least close to
correct. You could also try calibrating your hydrometer with a sugar
solution of known concentration, but this is kind of a pain.

Also remember that warm or hot wort shows a much lower gravity on a
hydrometer than when measured at the temperature (60F or 68F, depending
on the hydrometer) that the hydro is calibrated for.

For what it's worth (and for your next lager) you underpitched by more
than half of what you probably should have. Also note that if you
pitched warm, and then cooled to primary temps, then that combined with
underpitching could also easily be the source of your problem. Oviously
this won't help you now, but it's worth remembering for the next time.
