Marlena muses: thinking of . . . Dr. Pepper [who did THEY support?] _____ You mean Dr. Peppyr, Marlena. Who is Doctor Peppyr? Born Akyosius Fremkin Szandor Peppyr in the Balkan Republika of Srpska, this mysterious billionaire recluse has been a major force behind the scenes of the world's stage set and props. Who is he? What does he want? Whom does he support in US elections? When will he help move that rusty Chevy chassis from my neighbor's lawn? All are mysteries. The source of his vast wealth is as mysterious as the source of his doctorate. He is said to hold patents in food processing technology, music sampling, the design of keys on computer keyboards, and--most recently--water treatment systems using MSF and MED-TVC and MVC processes to purify water from metal treatment, starch/protein, and desalination. Those who attempt to unmask him often end up among the missing. Writing in The Guardian in October 1989, Bertrand Ruffolo identified "Akmet Chalabi" as one of Dr. Peppyr's pseudonyms. Ruffolo died that same year of "natural causes" at the age of 92. Coincidence? Linked by fringe media to CIA mind control experiments, Petz.com, Emmy nominations, and the text of Al Gore's speeches, Dr. Peppyr has remained elusive, even as he has spawned bogus corporations bearing homonyms of his name. Take the intentionally misleading American soft drink, Dr. Pepper, which spreads disinformation at this site: http://drops-of-jupiter.net/pepper/index.php?x=pepper.php "Dr Pepper was first sold in 1885 at a drug store in Waco, Texas. Wade Morrison, the drug store owner, named it Dr Pepper after Dr Charles Pepper, a Virginia doctor who had given Morrison his first job. Then it was introduced to millions of visitors at the 1904 St. Louis World's Fair. Became an instant success. In 1986, Dr Pepper merged with the Seven Up Company. From then on, it has became one of the world's favorite soft drink." Or the equally fraudulent multimedia display at: http://www.michaeldavisarts.com/animation.html "Dr. Peppar is a college professor-turned African Congo tour guide in the late 1920's." Independent investigators, acting dependently, have linked both these sites to a Herzogovinian front corporation said to be controlled by...none other than Akyosius Fremkin Szandor Peppyr. So who is he? Did he support Bush? I don't know. You don't. Not even Andreas knows. And at this point, who really cares? Shhhh!
