While net surfing I came across the Unabomber CT. It is mostly the same old, cloak and dagger stuff, with the evil CIA or corrupted FBI framing an innocent patsy with flimsy evidence.
I read a lot of the stuff and came across this page [http :// www . unabombers . com / SpellitSurvey . htm], and it is this page I would like to discuss. Has anyone seen this type of linguistic programming attempted before? It kind of reminds me of that kid’s trick of having someone say “top” five times fast, and then asking them what you do at a green light.
Some Side Notes.
- I found it interesting, but don’t necessarily agree with it as I cannot locate any references to Unibomber.
- I did not research page, but found some stuff that might be indicate the author may be on the Anti-Semite side, I apologize.

The Mind Control Spelling Test
Ask someone to spell the following five words in order and watch their reactions
See below for scoring and explanation
Unadorned Adj Without
Unisex Noun Absence of sexual distinctions, especially in dress
Unadulterated Adj Not mingled or diluted with extraneous matter; pure.
Unicorn Noun A horse with a spiraled horn projecting from its forehead
Unabomber Noun A famous person or cime case
Uni - Little or insignificant. Not worth thinking about. Funny like weenie.
Una - of singular importance
Score - If they get five out of five they may be mind controlled...
but if they spell Unabomber with an i there can be no doubt :)

The Mind Control Spelling Test is a cute and disarming name for a mechanism to highlight the emotional tones which have been subliminally attached to two slightly different spellings of the most publicized terrorist case of the twentieth century. One Una =Think about this, its dangerous, and vote a bigger budget. The other Uni = Do not think about this, its weird and humiliating. Una came BEFORE the arrest, Uni came AFTER the arrest. Uni arrived magically when the trial evidence became a REAL problem. Serious thought and evaluation ended with the spelling change.
There are 216 spellings for Una--- none of them sound like Una-something. You can not name a Una-something. There are 248 spellings for Uni--- many of which sound like Uni-something. UniSex, UniCycle, UniCorn, Uniwierd-Something-Or-Other. It is what Chomsky would call a unique language construct in the English Language, it is linguistically highly unusual.
Unabomber is a made-up word. The fact that no comparable linguistic construction exists for Una where many exist for Uni makes the inducement of a switch in spelling easy and natural. The emotional valences to be attached to the spelling are then naturally reinforced by the multiple existing uni-absurd definitions. The purpose of the emotional valences to be attached is obvious. To create avoidance of ridicule reaction in the public and effectively end all debate at the moment "THEY" decide to terminate public thought and interaction with the case. An "off" switch if you will. Impressive.
