      I have received some ribbing about that claim that I made about the floating frog, and the floating white rat, etc. A reader actually went so far as to fake a photo of a floating frog. (Very funny.)

      On CNN the frog was literally floating in the air, twirling around as though it was in outer space. The rat was doing the same thing. Now for some reason I have never heard another word about it. And there are probably good reasons for that. The one problem with military aircraft today is that they have reached the speed limit (any faster and they would kill the pilots with the g-forces they exert). This 'frog floating' business I referred to (and I am DEAD SERIOUS) has serious military applications because the next breakthrough in military flight technology cannot take place without doing something about those killer g-forces. According to NOVA on PBS, the military has the technology to make super planes, that exceed the performance of modern planes, but as I said, they would kill the pilots. So it is possible that although the footage was public for a brief time, it is now suddenly 'top secret'. Why not contact CNN and see if they will replay that footage (or is that now out of the question).

     We could all use some humor. My site generates a fair number of hits (I have not yet seen my log file for the month, but in just the last week 100 people joined one of the clubs listed on my links page, and I assume that they bounced off my link page). I get hits but very few emails, because I think that people are afraid of me (or maybe they just can't think of anything to say).

     Another funny story. Last night I saw this bright star sitting stationary in the sky. Then the star began to move, crossed a short section of the sky, and then went upwards and disappeared to a pin point and was gone. Joshua again. He is always around. I have been in a morose mood the last few weeks, brooding about things, and so I could use some cheering up.

     I have been sending emails to UFO places in British Columbia in the hopes that someone might be able to help me locate that B.C. magazine that published my letters. Since I have found out from the Melville Advance newspaper that UFOs were appearing in the skies over Melville during the summer of 1975, this would mean that the article was published in late 1975 (I received notice about the article in the month of January - something I remember - and this would have been 1976). Someone from one of these B.C. UFO places wrote :

Hi Brent
Well I dropped by your web site and really did enjoy it, really nice job on the site. I enjoyed the stories, awesome. You asked about exchanging links, if you have a banner please do send it along to me as I will place it on my site. I also am sending my new one along to you as well.

The URL is : http://www.homestead.com/ufo3/ufo.html

Thank you for writing

     As a general rule I stay away from churches and Christians so I can stay out of trouble (I made one exception to that rule yesterday and sent an email to the United Church in Melville, Saskatchewan, in the hopes that someone in that church might remember the events of 1975. I also plan to take out a classified ad as I search for more witnesses.) Not all Christians get mad at me. I received the following email:

Hi I just viewed your wonderful and interesting website. If you have time please visit:

http://home.beseen.com/belief/surfon/keepgoing.html - A Christian site with humor -

God Bless!

     In my surfing I also located another paranormal search engine, and as seems customary for these sites, they listed my URL. (This is another one of those search engines that will provoke some of those churches to wrath.) The name of the search engine is Paraseek.

     I do not just receive feedback by email. I was watching streaming Christian media over the net the other day, and some preacher responded to my site. He said, 'I can't help it if I was born with Adamic sin, but I can decide to do something about it.' He then went on to (literally) thump the Bible, and said, 'no one wants to hear your debates. No one wants to hear your discussions. They want to see the power of the Holy Ghost.' Now, if I was a little brighter, perhaps I could instantly think of a good way to respond to his logical fallacy (because there is one here somewhere). While I am thinking, I could point out that this is 'works based salvation' is it not. Indeed, is not that whole business of 'saving yourself' by 'choosing to' just works based salvation, and, as I have heard so often, it is a Christian dogma that you can't be saved by works (well, except for that one work of saving yourself. As one of the letters in the church testament put it, 'it is by grace that you are saved, it is not your own doing. It is God's gift. It is not by human effort and will,' but apparently evangelists have always thought that it was, based on that works based 'choose to' method of salvation that is always being pushed.) I believe that life is a kind of learning experience, and while people certainly do have choices, choosing to be born is not one of them (that I can recall). According to that scripture passage I was quoting, and others, God chooses to save, not the other way around. Now a strict Calvinist will then insist that this choice of God is manifested when a Calvinist goes to church, but as the gospel put it 'What is not possible for humanity is possible for God.' And again, 'You did not choose me, I chose you.' Certainly we all make choices, and we learn from them (eventually) but as the prophet put it, 'God is the potter, we are the clay.' So the idea that salvation is a strictly human work is something I reject. When I can think of more to say about the logical fallacy inherent in that statement he made I will perhaps be inspired to write another essay, or to start a Christian Media Watch page (not a bad idea). If anyone else out there is philisophically inclined and can think of an appropriate response I would be interested in hearing it.

     As for a "Christian Media Watch page,' I hear logical fallacies flying back at me every single day, and maybe it is about time I started addressing this kind of feedback as well.
