Microbee Resistance to Violence and Vibratory Killers
The passage reports on a bizarre claim that a “Microbee” cannot be killed by gral-violence or large animals, but is vulnerable to entebtic forms of violence like rotary motion, tipping, and vibration.

Also cited is Mr Denison Miller in Sydney predicting a successful loan outcome when the Federal Treasurer announces results.
