Cosmic Ray Deflection Society information


The Cosmic Ray Deflection Society is a satirical/environmental pseudoscientific organization, based in New Orleans, Louisiana. A worldwide membership of over 250 members, the group purports to believe the "deadly cosmic rays" are getting in through the hole in the ozone layer.
