The Federal Vampire and Zombie Agency (FVZA):
A Message From The Director
http://www.fvza.org/images/pixlshim.gifThis propaganda poster appeared 1933, when the worldwide vampire population was estimated at three million. Now that vampires have been largely eradicated from our lives, I have seen the cautious sentiment expressed in this poster replaced by what at times seems like a nationwide celebration of everything vampire. Vampire-themed nightclubs and cults are all the rage, their popularity fueled by the profusion of vampire images in advertising. Young people raised on Hollywood movies and TV shows believe vampires are something to be admired. As the former Director of the Federal Vampire & Zombie Agency and a man who had seen firsthand the terrible toll wreaked by vampires, I am appalled by these developments.
http://www.fvza.org/images/pixlshim.gifEven more troubling to me is the collective amnesia exhibited by our scientific community. In their lust to unlock the secrets of immortality, scientists have thrown caution to the wind and are venturing down a dangerous new road of research.
http://www.fvza.org/images/pixlshim.gifAs many of you know, I recently resigned my position on the Board of Directors at New Mexico's Santa Rosa Institute for Advanced Genetic Research in protest of their decision to begin testing altered vampire DNA on animals. My opponents should not confuse resignation with surrender. On the contrary: I intend to use this web site and my speaking engagements to raise public awareness and create pressure on Washington to put the brakes on this research.
http://www.fvza.org/images/pixlshim.gif Some twenty years after I helped develop the vampire vaccine, I promised my grandson that he would never have to live in a world overrun by vampires. With your help, I intend to keep that promise.

Former Director, FVZA― Scaredy Cat, Saturday, 1 March 2003 00:32 (twenty-two years ago) Is this site for real? Dr. Pecos, I think that you are a very intelligent man but you don't know the first thing about vampires. Vampires are not like the movies or TV shows. Vampires are like humans except that vampires are a better version of the race. Rethink your situation before you tell people what vampires are like.

Answer:
You and I must be talking about two different things, because the vampires I've seen are bloodthirsty, duplicitous and merciless. A better version of the race? I hardly think so. ― Curt1s St3ph3ns, Saturday, 1 March 2003 00:45 (twenty-two years ago) I'm guessing it's like that Manmeat website a while ago that appeared to be a real establishment which would send fresh meat to your door "legally" obtained from human cadavres. It goes around the web and convinces a certain number of people fully that there are vampires and zombies and then it just sort of disappears. Or else vampires and zombies really are real and nobody on earth knows it except this guy. ― Scaredy Cat, Saturday, 1 March 2003 00:55 (twenty-two years ago) An odd little site there, Scardey Cat. I'm inclined to agree that it's like the Manmeat site, but it is entertaining. I actually met a self-proclaimed "Vampire" at a leather event several years ago. She's written a book about the whole vampire thing and what it means to her and so forth. To be honest, it squicks me, but it is also oddly compelling - likely because it's so close to cannibalism that it's such a major societal taboo. Anyway, here's a link to Vi's website (well, one of several) if you want more information on her: http://www.iron-rose.com/vijohnson/ ― I'm Passing Open Windows (Ms Laura), Saturday, 1 March 2003 03:51 (twenty-two years ago) "From her journals kept while living as a slave and vampire, V.M. Johnson authored two autobiographical books published by Mystic Rose Books. They are Dhampir, Child of The Blood and To Love, To Obey, To Serve, Diary of an Old Guard Slave. Her work has been published in Some Women (the Anthology) and various leather magazines. She is published in Dominant Mistique, BLIC, Passion, The Link, Black Mistress Review, Black Amazon Digest, Ouch, Obeya, and Bitches with Whips" ― Curt1s St3ph3ns, Saturday, 1 March 2003 03:54 (twenty-two years ago) *laughing* Yep. I though the "To Love" book was interesting - needed some SERIOUS editing, though (hard to take a book seriously when you keep getting distracted by typos and misspellings, to say nothing of the grammatical problems). Actually, that book has the one thing in it that bugged me so much that I never recommended the book to someone else and I never asked anyone else about that scene in the book, for fear that I read it correctly and they hadn't and then they'd be all upset, too. (Yeah, I know - it's pathetic - I really have never asked anyone about it - I've gone back and reread it to see if I could pinpoint where I might have misinterpreted things - and I can't figure-out how - and then I am even more upset about the whole thing. Pretty much kills any respect I had for her as a leader of the leather community if I read it correctly.) ― I'm Passing Open Windows (Ms Laura), Saturday, 1 March 2003 04:17 (twenty-two years ago) seven years pass...
