This is today folks!!!  Right at this moment it is imperative that we put
our differences aside do something.  One nice thing about Nukes is that
they remind us that "We will all go together when we go....."  The dust
that's left will have no racial component.  Most important to the
discussions here, this is a violation of Shoshone sovereignty.

Hello Friends,

The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) has announced plans to conduct a
subcritical nuclear weapons test, code named "Clarinet" for Tuesday,
February 9, 1999. The last Nevada Test Site radio transmission reported
that everything was in place and they would be ready by 9am Tuesday. We
believe that the Test will be conducted around 10am U.S. Pacific Standard
Time. This test will take place on Western Shoshone land.

This will be the sixth subcritical nuclear test in the US since the
beginning of the test series in 1997. Subcritical tests help fan the flames
that continue the cold war mind set (Russia took up the "challenge" by
detonating 5 subcriticals in 1998). These tests also threaten the
international ratification of the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty.

SUBCRITICAL TESTING MUST BE STOPPED!

Call President Clinton and demand that this nuclear insanity must stop
right now! (202) 456-1111
Department of Energy Washington DC Headquarters (202) 586-5000

In Nevada, Tuesday, February 9th: 

We will be having a Prayer Ceremony lead by Corbin Harney at the gates to
the Nevada Test Site beginning at 9am. This is 60 miles north west of Las
Vegas on Hwy 95 at the Mercury exit. A Nonviolent Direct Action will take
place. Come early to join affinity group discussions. 

A protest vigil will be held 4pm - 5pm at the Foley Federal Building, 300 S
Las Vegas Blvd. Bring your signs, drums and remember, we need to gather in
as many numbers as possible to carry off a spirited, noisy, yet nonviolent
event. Tell your friends, family, neighbors to join us. Call (702) 647-3095
for more information.

In the Bay Area (San Francisco CA):

A demonstration will be held on Tuesday, February 9, to protest continuing
nuclear weapons development by the US. Bechtel manages the Nevada Test Site
where the detonation will take place. Where: Bechtel Corp. HQ, 50 Beale
St., San Francisco, 1 block south of
Market St., near the Embarcadero BART station. When: Noon, Tuesday, Feb. 9,

nonviolent guidelines. A "risk arrest" is possible for those wishing to do
one. Bring: Banners, signs, puppets, "rad" suits and whatever other
creative props you desire. For more information about this event please
