Nasa's space shuttle video
In a previous piece I discussed how, immediately after the Summit of the America's concluded on Earth Day, 2001, an 'unknown' type of space craft appeared outside the space station and was filmed by Nasa's space shuttle camera. (Nasa admitted, once and only once, that they did film this unusual craft, and probably caught hell for doing so, since nothing has been heard about this extremely important matter since then). In the following piece I discuss how hiding the truth in this matter causes a small part of the population a great deal of suffering (untreated Post Traumatic Shock Disorder). I follow this with a discussion of the technology of these craft based upon my own observations of them, which gives us a picture of the future of the new arms race (between China and the United States, both heading to the moon, so they say). I follow this with a brief justification of the doctrine of punitive justice (which is justified because its what is inevitable, and thus is predictable - but judge for yourself). I then conclude with some of my customary 'weirdness' as I monitor an 'experiment' in faith and trustfulness.To NASA's credit, they did acknowledge that they caught such an object on the shuttle camera, even though, probably for 'National Security Reasons' or something like that, the tape itself has never been released.
Offsite link on the BBC: UFO Video goes to Hollywood - a quote from the article: "officials at NASA are said to have asked to examine the tape, because they believe it shows the same type of craft once spotted by the space agency's own cameras during a space shuttle mission. "
Each time I report on what happened after the Summit, I include this link, so that one would hope, I can forestall the inevitable mockery bringing this matter up elicits. To drive the point home, at least once, NASA did admit that they filmed such an object, and so therefore one can safely assume that I am not sharing with you some delusion that exists only in my own mind, and having established this as a starting point I can now go on to discuss the debilitating suffering and stress that our society dumps onto those who carry this experience around inside themselves, never ever to speak, or to receive the help they need, due to the toxic effects of that worthless mockery and scorn that has been normalized in our secretive society (normalized because it is kept secret, by the way, not because it is normal).
Post Traumatic Stress Disorder
In a previous piece I described a first encounter I had with some incredible space craft at Banff National Park when I was fifteen. Below are thumbnails which link to larger scanned images of a letter I wrote which was published in a Canadian ‘UFO' magazine which was published in British Columbia at that time. My letter begins about half way down the center column of the middle page, and begins with the words that the evening is question was 'one of the most horrifying nights I can ever recollect going through.'
I won't go into great depth discussing the matter now, since it is described on a previous page linked to here, and was also discussed on a page discussing faith, linked to here, where I described how I had a very disturbed reaction to these events, which caused me a great deal of anguish over the years.
A few days ago my curiosity was aroused by a web site filled with descriptions of various symptoms of dysfunctional personalities and I thought to myself that I would read through what was a very lengthy list of conditions until I found the one that best described what afflicted my personality for years. The description of this condition reads as follows ... Diagnosis of PTSD depends on a person having a center number of a list of sym ptoms, and I have selected out the particulars that accurately described my condition...
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is a debilitating condition that follows a terrifying event. Often, people with PTSD have persistent frightening thoughts and memories of their ordeal and feel emotionally numb, especially with people they were once close to...some people with PTSD repeatedly relive the trauma in the form of disturbing recollections during the day. They may also experience sleep problems, depression, feeling detached or numb... They may lose interest in things they used to enjoy and have trouble feeling affectionate. They may feel irritable, more aggressive than before, or even violent... Seeing things that remind them of the incident may be very distressing, which could lead them to avoid certain places or situations that bring back those memories. Anniversaries of the event are often very difficult...Ordinary events can serve as reminders of the trauma and trigger flashbacks or intrusive images. A flashback may make the person lose touch with reality and reenact the event ...At the present time I would describe myself as recovering from PTSD, and it is of particular note to myself (since I live with myself) that I am no longer in such deep and excruciatingly painful distress as that which I experienced for years. Probably never before has a person with PTSD experienced so many frequent flashbacks as I did. Looking back I think I had perhaps a couple per hour (that may be an exaggeration, but not by much). The ordeal became more grueling over time and I was so desperate to get therapy, to find someone anywhere who could help me, but I could not get any help.
Not every traumatized person gets full-blown PTSD, or experiences PTSD at all. PTSD is diagnosed only if the symptoms last more than a month. In those who do have PTSD, symptoms usually begin within 3 months of the trauma, and the course of the illness varies. Some people recover within 6 months, others have symptoms that last much longer. In some cases, the condition may be chronic. Occasionally, the illness doesn't show up until years after the traumatic event.
The traumatic event is persistently reexperienced as ... recurrent and intrusive distressing recollections of the event, including images, thoughts, or perceptions...intense psychological distress at exposure to internal or external cues that symbolize or resemble an aspect of the traumatic event ... The individual also has persistent avoidance of stimuli associated with the trauma and numbing of general responsiveness (not present before the trauma), as indicated by ... efforts to avoid thoughts, feelings, or conversations associated with the trauma ... efforts to avoid activities, places, or people that arouse recollections of the trauma ... markedly diminished interest or participation in significant activities... feeling of detachment or estrangement from others ... restricted range of affect (e.g., unable to have loving feelings) ... sense of a foreshortened future (e.g., does not expect to have a career, marriage, children, or a normal life span)

You see, when you are suffering such intense PTSD as that which I experienced, you cannot get help from a therapist, since if you had my particular condition, you would get misdiagnosed as perhaps a psychotic (they never tell you what the diagnosis is since they afraid of creating a self fulfilling prophecy, however I did get locked up in an institution twice, and pumped full of anti-psychotic drugs, so it is not hard for me to guess the diagnosis. I have read the diagnosis of a psychotic and, aside from the numbing, those were not my symptoms, and that wouldn't be me. What I had was a fierce case of PTSD, and I suffered like bloody hell, and because of the chronic misdiagnosis of my condition I could not get help, and wound up trapped within terrible, terrible torment. It was a horrific, awful experience living with that PTSD, and I although I knew I desperately needed a therapist, someone, anyone who could help me figure out what was wrong with me and what to do about it, I could not get help, at least not the help I really needed.
I believe that one thing that has helped me very much in recovering from that ridiculous and hurtful, chronic PTSD is just talking about the matter rather than avoiding it like I used to do before. As well. for years I did nothing but write critiques of the Bible which I then posted on my website, although, as time went by, this became less important to me, and I have not written much on this topic for several years. You see one thing that contributed to my PTSD was that horrific afternoon when I first saw what had happened to my driver's licence.
There is much about this truly bizarre experience that I cannot explain, however I could describe seeing that wretched thing as being like becoming drunk, and then staggering for months, and then suffering for years, getting worse and worse and never recovering. Unfortunately, after seeing that filthy thing, I also read the Bible, and my PTSD, already in full bloom before I made that tragic mistake, went into roaring full gear overdrive. You see the Bible is polluted with some of the most disgustingly sadistic genocide and authoritarianism and right wing extremism and all kinds of disgusting vulgarity that I wanted nothing to do with, which I find more than distasteful, and which added another large dose of PTSD to my already blossoming case of PTSD.
The reason I experienced such never ending frequent repeating flashbacks day after day for years, without respite, was because I had compounded traumas. I had the trauma of the original event, which while I can see that it was difficult for me, didn't really begin to bother me until about three years after the event, and even then didn't seem to terrible. But then I had that drunken case of PTSD that lasted for months that happened when I first noticed the number on my driver's licence, which happened when I was eighteen. You see, I didn't learn to drive until I was 21. I ride a bike to this very day. I even bike when its 40 below. People think I am crazy and cars honk wildly at me in derision (I assume) as I bike along during the most frigid conditions. I am quite comfortable, because I know how to dress for any weather, having done it for years. Actually when I reach my destinatino and take off my winter wear oftentimes a big cloud of steam rises up in the air (literally, a big cloud of steam, and whoever feels cold in sauna, even if the air is 40 below outside). Well, as I said, I bike through any frigid weather, with no problem biking away inside that sauna I call winter wear, and so I did not even bother looking at the driver's licence until I was eighteen, and when I did happen one day to notice that wretched thing, I went into severe PTSD, and then I read the Bible, and that was an experience I would describe as being dragged into a dungeon to pummeled by a sadist, and the destruction to my personality was so severe that I went into deep, persistent chronic PTSD, in which every day was one long series of flashbacks. As I mentioned in the previous piece, I would be with people and I would find myself 'detaching' from them, reliving the event, and thinking to myself 'they don't know.' I was also convinced that I shouldn't tell them, because you see, I am not a sadist, and who the hell would want to make them turn out like me, because I was well aware that my life was a living hell.
This leads me to take up two great causes. The first is to do something about that wretched thing known as the so called "Holy Bible". When genocide, mass murder, virgin raping, glorious tales of warring, oppressing women, burning people up, setting up a right wing theocratic dictatorship, and just generally demeaning and degrading people by describing them as 'born to damnation' or 'born in sin', well when light becomes darkness (so that genocide becomes holy) then it might be the case that some book like the Bible becomes holy as well. I can testify, from personal experience, that the Bible is extremely harmful, taken as a whole. To be fair, I have parts that I can say I admire, but, taken as a whole, given the filth on the pages of the Bible, all told I have to say that it is a menace to the mental health and safety of the human race. I offer permanent resistance. For example, I really admire mandarin oranges, however if someone offered me a juicy orange laced with cynanide, well I would consider that a menace. Sure the orange is nice, but that cyanide is something to be avoided at all costs. Perhaps I could offer that as a metaphor for the Bible...sure you can find some sections of an orange on its pages, but unfortunately, due to the cyanide contamination, it must be condemned as a thoroughly dangerous and rotten book, orange sections aside.
And I have a second great cause which is becoming more and more important to me as time goes by, and that is to raise awareness of what happened to me, and to bring what is being kept secret and hidden to light. First of all, it is important that this matter be dealt with properly, to protect the human race from what is obviously a very psychologically potent experience, which, if not managed properly, could prove to be destructively harmful. You know people have a way of rationalizing difficult experiences, and I am not different, in that I can see, if I am considered a kind guinea pig, that what happened to me could actually prove to be quite useful, in that I have insights that no one else has, because I experienced this.
At the same time it is unfortunate that the experience turned out to be so brutally difficult to deal with, but then I suppose I wouldn't know half of what I know and understand today if were not for who I was yesterday. At the same time, if I had to it all over again, I don't think that I would, because it was just that terrible to actually live that painful experience. This is tragic and unfortunate since there is much that is so interesting and wonder filled and magnificent here, and it is a shame to have it disappear under a pile of manure, to have it shattered by destructive forces, as happened in my case.
I am certain that I am not the only one, and I am convinced that there are others out there as well, suffering from PTSD as I did, without knowing that it is in fact PTSD that is their problem. They may not be showing such intense symptoms as I did, given that I suffered repeated cases of PTSD (in the end winding up with such a powerful case of compounded PTSD that you can say my entire life eventually became one long constantly repeating flashback, and eventually the condition developed into profoundly angered outbursts. Towards the end of the symptoms my entire life became on long furious raging outburst. I was so profoundly upset, and so deeply enraged, so furious, always lashing out, that I actually gave myself two stress induced heart attacks. (Those of you who have never experienced a heart attack, believe me, it is something you definately want to miss. Not only does it cause incredible pain during the time you are having a heart attack, there is that horrible debilitation that follows as you spend weeks flat on your back while your soar and painfully aching heart torments you day and night. Let me just say OUCH OUCH OUCH! NEVER NEVER AGAIN! And I did it twice. I was just that upset. It really is possible for a person to get so powerfully upset, so intensely stressed out that their heart cannot deal with the stress and just gives out and has a heart attack. Hearts hate stress, and anything that a heart hates that much cannot be a good thing.)
Now these people out there who have perhaps a less advanced case of PTSD than I did, but nevertheless had an experience that is similar to mine, and are now suffering a severe disturbance in their life, have no doubt found that not only can they never get help (it is just hopeless) they also find that they can't talk about this, and believe me, when you don't talk about it, it becomes more and more intense as time passes until it becomes chronic.
Perhaps they might stumble upon this (although truth be told they would probably being doing everything possible to avoid anything that would remind them of the source of their PTSD) but then perhaps they might stumble upon this discussion, and find themselves relating to what I am saying. Awful isn't it. And really, don't you sometimes feel that maybe you just want to detach from people, you know, just be by yourself, maybe get real depressed and then do some of that mourning. Puzzling, isn't it, how something is terribly wrong with you, especially when you think about who you once were, but now you are no longer that person. Indeed, that person seems to be gone forever, and you will never ever be well again. It seems hopeless. And of course, as you would know, you cannot talk about this. Really, confronting this issue in our society seems about as hopeless as climbing Mount Olympus on Mars, doesn't it. Just hopeless. That mountainous wall of resistance is awe inspiring and there is nothing that no one will ever be able to do to change that fact of life. Just utterly hopeless. And even though you know something is terribly wrong (its PTSD, by the way, just so that now, finally, at long last, at least you can give a name to what really is wrong with you), yes even though I don't need to tell you that you need help, you can't get any. We both know that. And if you are as unlucky as I was, you also know just how grueling and painful it is to take those dreadful 'anti-psychotic ' pills. When I say painful by the way, I am describing a literal form of physical torture. I am convinced that no mental health professional has ever actually decided to take one of those things themselves, just to see what they are like. After all they forcibly make people take them, and no one who ever suffered through the hours of physical torture and abuse that results from swallowing down one of those horrific (not to mention useless and mind distorting) things would ever want to give one to another human being. Trust me. I know, and I wouldn't put anyone else through that ordeal. Given the choice I feel that a psychotic is much better off being psychotic than they would be if they were a psychotic with the added grueling ordeal of being forced to take those torture pills. Now they have two problems, and that is not an improvement.
Well, in conclusion, let me say that when anyone ridicules or mocks or scorns those who deliver the testimony such as what I deliver (with ever increasing boldness and determination) what you are doing is not only contributing to the cause of those who would keep secrets, you are also keeping yourself ignorant, and even worse you are making sacrificial goats out living human beings who must suffer terribly and in silence, since due to the wide spread ignorance being maintained about this phenomena, they cannot receive help. This ignorance is not being maintained for the benefit of the human race, for there is never any benefit for all humanity in keeping secrets, but rather secrets are kept to the benefit of the few who know secrets. Indulging in mockery and ridicule actually makes you a partner with such people, although, in truth, calling you their 'partner' is a bit much, since really the truth of the matter is that you are their manipulated and unwitting dupe, and they are also using you, for by keeping you in blissful ignorance they know that they count on you to do their dirty work, and thus you help them out a lot by keeping their secrets secret, without knowing what is that you are actually doing (you are an active oppressor and you destroy the truth, to put it bluntly). That is a stunning piece of work, a masterpiece of manipulation, and I think that if you only knew you wouldn't be to happy when you understand that you yourself have been duped and then manipulated and used as a little pawn for years. No, you will never be their partner, because they are just that important.
Getting on the wrong side of history
Now I mentioned in a previous piece that immediately after the Summit of the Americas in Quebec city, one of these space craft I described appeared on live television, after being captured by the cameras of the Space Shuttle. This tape is being kept hidden. Now given the amount of suffering a small segment of the population is enduring, I cannot let this opportunity go by to once again make known just how immoral and wrong I feel it is to keep this vitally important piece of tape hidden from the public. What is revealed by that tape is one of the most important things that would ever be brought to the attention of our generation. Furthermore, NASA kindly did the taping, so this is particularly helpful, since we don't have to bother getting bogged down in the usual discussion that accompanies such tapes (the bit about questioning the motives of the person who had the tape, the bit about questioning the authenticity of the tape, and so on). I will also take this opportunity to vigorously protest against the media. After the media aired that remarkable piece of footage live on international television. The space shuttle live broadcast was part of some propaganda extravaganza that was planned to follow the Summit of the Americas, which included such other elements as a tour of Western Canada by Prince Charles, all of these things being planned to follow one after another being hardly a coincidence, but as I said, well planned. Not included in those plans for the Summit of the Americas was that history would be made when, finally, at long long last, finally, finally, finally, one of these space craft would, in what I assume was also part of some carefully choreographed propaganda exercise, appear live and unannounced on television.Now those with a sense of history may be able to understand, even at this early stage, that someday what happened there will be understood to be one of those rare, and very BIG BIG events. History is peppered with such singular events. For example the first short flight of an aircraft. Sputnik. Big event. And, even though it goes unrecognized at this present time, the appearance of this space craft outside the International Space Station is, I would guess, using a sense of history here, no doubt going to prove, at the end of it all, to be the biggest moment of the current century. Nothing could overshadow this event in historical significance. Even if the boot of a human being stepped onto Mars, that would rate, at most, second place in any list of major moments in this, the 21st century.
Now once again, using a sense of history, I must ask just what verdict history will pass on the modern day media. Think about, especially if you are the media. Well, look, let me tell you, that does not look good, and if I were you I would be looking for some way to see if maybe I could get myself away from that one in one hell of hurry. Seriously. You know sometimes history remembers people in a way which is less than desirable. For example who wants to be called 'Neville Chamberlain.' You know, out cutting a deal with Hitler, to give that German, who was the leader of the world superpower at the time, a big slice of Czech pie. How embarrassing for Chamberlain. Now given how big and how very very important a story we have here (you know, people from space show up for Summit of the Americas, and generously appear to allow themselves to be taped while appearing live on television during a big extended photo-op). Let's say that Kim of Korea was photographed shaking the hand of Bush. That photo-op might be considered big, big news, even tucked away in any collage of big events of the century, but I know of a much bigger photo op, that history will remember for a long time, not to mention remembering those who get on the wrong side of history in a way that anyone with common sense would want to avoid.
Now while I am talking straight talk to people, and turning the screws, I cannot forget to turn the screws to Neville Chamberlain. Here I would talking about politicians, who get remembered in a bad way by history, because, you know, they positioned themselves to be on the wrong side of an issue at exactly the wrong time, and given how history works, got remembered in a particularly bad way. I would be talking here about those few politicians who do know what I mean, not those unimportant politicians who don't get to watch tapes because they just aren't important enough. As for all those really important politicians, the type who get to watch tapes, and then hide them, well all I can say is that given how history works, I sure wouldn't to be poor old Neville, but people have to make their own choices. Unfortunately such politicians, those future Nevilles out there, will be digging themselves a deep, deep pit, which is what politicians do, since they think that as long as they keep shovellling, well, in theory, somehow that will work out. Indeed, all they have to do is just make damned sure that never comes out, perhaps they can do the Nixon thing and do lots and lots of that digging, and then, finally everything will come out right. Of course, media people could find themselves doing a lot of that digging, which once people start, is something they just never seem to be able to stop. You know, once that hole digging starts, it becomes ever so important to dig deep, and the deeper the hole gets the more important it becomes to justify all the digging that was done before. Eventually history looks at all that digging and just makes a bad judgment and a bunch of people find themselves mentioned in history, when they would probably rather be forgetten, since they wound up listed under the heading 'Neville' or some similar thing, rather than being listed under a good part such as say, Galileo or Martin Luther King or something else that would be good and people would actually find tolerable, unlike that other 'Neville' thing, which I think most people would rather avoid. Such things can be avoided, but in conclusion I thought I would point out that it never works to dig a pit (which winds up landing you one of those bad spots to go along with a big pile of dirt that was dug up for no real purpose other than to show just how dumb it is to dig pits).
Top Secret. For Highest Security Clearance Only.
Now that I have done my bit in service to humanity, and have also continued with my mission of exposing the whole deal and also bringing help to some people out there who need it, but just can't get it, I thought it might be of interest to blow the cover on certain matters which are classified, and thus must not be widely known by people.Now you might wonder what place someone like me, a nobody from the middle of nowerhere, in such a position that I can discuss highly classified secrets in public. After all, its not like I can give a retinal scan, and enter through several heavily guarded vault doors, open a safe and then pull out the world's most secret information (and being who I am, naturally, then leave the place and go around telling everyone the whole thing, thus ruining everything...might as well place that secret knowledge in a public library now, right. Why even bother locking it back up in that vault, since the point of classifying such information would be moot.
Now I cannot discuss classified secrets in great technical detail. However, since I am writing for the ordinary audience, that might be okay, since I will speak in terms everyone can understand.
My unique experiences over the years, and in particular what I witnessed, along with others, in my hometown at the time I was fifteen (Melville Saskatchewan) have given me some unique insights, which would be the sort of things that would be highly classified until the year 2050, or some other time after the Pentagon finally managed to turn the knowledge into super powered space weapons of mass destruction. After that time, since know America would need to 'project military power' over the whole planet, they would then need to reveal the kind of general information I have at my disposal, while of course hiding the technical details, just as they did, for example, in telling people, after years of deepest secrecy, that they had nuclear bombs. Since those bombs were tried out on Japan everyone knew what the term 'nuclear bomb' meant, and it wasn't just an abstraction, and thus America projected power over the whole world, without having to reveal any technical secrets.
So then, since I don't have the technical secrets (and I would not tell anyone even if I did) we can just discuss these insights of mine in the general sense, much as we would discuss "Nuclear Bomb", and everyone would understand what it all means, even if they couldn't try that one at home themselves.
First I will share with you the raw data which is the source of my insights.
When I was fifteen, several months after the incident at Banff National Park, I witnessed three craft, shaped like two soup bowls placed face to face, hovering silently over a cow barn on the other side of the ravine that runs by the Park across the street from the two High Schools. The craft were lined up in a perfectly straight line. They glowed with the same strange glow you see in those toys which you hold in the light and then carry into a dark closet (phosphorescence). The glow is instantly recognizable (it is diffuse, and has that 'eerie' quality that makes such toys ideal for such times as Hallowe'en). One was that yellow-green color we associate with such glow in the dark objects (this is the way the color appears in nature). The second was a deep crimson red, and the third was a kind of turquoise blue. On another occassion I was at a lake with two friends when on of these objects appeared over head. At first it was tiny pin point, and looked like a satellite, and then suddenly it abruptly changed trajectory, and sped earthward until it was close. Now when an object is distance, and when it is close, it looks, not to mention feels, close. Objects at a distance appear more and more two dimensional and all space relationships are distorted (for example a small star very close appears large while a massive star far away appears tiny, and all space relationships are distorted at great distances so that as you look out at starry sky you cannot really determine actual distances and space relationships). When this object had finished diving earthward, it became close, and had that three dimensional appearance as well as that three dimensional appearance that objects have when they are really close. It was clearly visible as a circular object, either a disk, or perhaps a round ball. At another time, back In Melville, I saw what looked like a red cigar shaped object, which was bright red, and covered with blinking lights like a Christmas tree. This object had this 'cigar' appearance, I believe, because it was a disk viewed from the side, and so the object which dived was probably a disk as well, viewed from below. It sped horizontally across the sky, and then suddenly made another abrupt change in direction, and shot upward, disappearing to a pin point in a matter of seconds. Keep in mind that the space shuttle crawls toward space over a time span covering many minutes, and you can understand what I mean when I describe an object that shoots upward into space in a matter of seconds.
Now having described my observations, I will move along to discussing in non-technical terms the highly classified technology involved in duplicating what I witnessed. Hopefully, by making known what should be kept very, very secret, I can continue to contribute to the cause of having this information become public knowledge (including that history making piece of tape kindly filmed by NASA).
Anyone who has ever watched experiments with super conductors might recall the image of a disk shaped object on a platform which is cooled so as the super conduct electricity. Now a relationship exists between an electric field and magnets (for example we know that an electrical coil, which generates a magnetic field, is the technology at the heart of hydro-electric power generation plants). Using electricity, a super conducting magnet can generate a powerful field which causes the disk to suddenly spring into the air and then hang suspended, defying gravity. Indeed, there is only one force on earth that is known to cause objects to hover in mid air, suspended and defying gravity, and that is magnetism.
We also know that phosphors are a kind of natural battery. When solar energy (or any other kind of light) strikes a phosphor some of it is temporarily stored within this material. This is why when you take a glow in the dark toy into a dark closet it continues to glow for a time. How long it glows and how brightly it glows depends on how charged the phosphor battery becomes. (If you hold the glow in the dark toy close to a brilliant light source, it will trap more energy, and then glow more intensely in the darkness).
From Einstein's famous equation (E = mc2) we know that there is relationship between matter and energy (with the amount of energy (E) contained in any given amount of matter being equivalent to the mass times the speed of light squared. In most cases matter is stable and does not explosively turn into energy, with the exception of such unstable forms of matter as enriched plutonium, and small lump of plutonium contains so much trapped energy that it could level an entire city should the energy be explosively released. (so then matter is just trapped energy, and thus your body has something in common with a ray of sunlight. However the matter in your body is stable and so you need worry about explosive detonation releasing enough energy to flatten your home town as your energy is released.)
An even closer relationship exists between, for example, sun light, consisting of photons, and electricity, which is composed of electrons. Both are forms of energy, and we know, just using currently available technology that it is possible to convert sunlight into electricity (solar power).
It is also understood that there is a mysterious relationship that exists between magnetism and gravity. For example, the graph of an object falling into a magnetic field is identical to the graph of an object falling into a gravity well. And magnetism is the only force know which is capable of causing objects to resist gravity, and so an interesting relationship exists here as well.
So then we know that solar energy can be converted to electrical energy and we know that electricity can be used to generate an electro-magnetic field and we know that magnetism is the only force know that allows an object to defy gravitational forces. And we also know that phosphors are a natural battery.
So then, putting it altogether, what we have are craft where the surface consists of a coating of phosphors. Here we see an interesting merger of both form and function, for the phosphors given the craft their decorative appearance (as I mentioned one was decorated like a Christmas Tree) and given how phosphor collects solar energy, this is also quite functional in that these phosphors also are the energy source for the craft since phosphors are a natural solar battery. Only a powerful magnetic field would allow a disk to hang suspended in mid air, and since we know that solar energy can be converted to electricity and this can then be converted to a magnetic field, we know that we have here are solar powered craft which run on clean electrical energy which somehow uses the relationship between magnetism and gravity to hang suspended in mid air. If you watch super conducting experiments, you will notice that when the super conducting magnet is turned on, the disk accelerates upward, and so we also know using conventional scientific knowledge, that magnetism can also be a source of propulsion, since it accelerates the disk and propels upward a short distance. This resembles the way these craft can suddenly be propelled upward (you might compare it to what would happen if you held a piece of cork underwater, and then suddenly released the cork, which would rocket up to the surface of the water ... the objects can suddenly accelerate upward much like the cork released underwater). As for those dramatic right angle turns and the sudden and extremely rapid acceleration, I can only surmise that there is a relationship between magnetism and G-Forces, just as there is a poorly understood relationship between magnetism and gravity, and just as magnetism can counteract gravity, it must also be possible for magnetism to counteract G-Forces, since G-Forces are a form of gravitation (an object subjected to G-Forces which was sitting on a scale would tip the scale at a higher and higher weight as the G-Forces increase).
Now if we think in terms of weapons of mass destruction, which, as everyone knows, is always the very first item at the top of the list on this planet, well you can imagine silent, invisible bombs of mass destruction, reaching targets in seconds rather than minutes. When weapons like these exist, there is a compelling reason to launch a first strike, since you don't have fifteen minutes in which to launch a counter strike before kissing your sorry ass goodbye. You can imagine fighter pilots kept isolated from G-Forces so that they can attack targets at tremendous speeds. Currently air craft design is only limited by the human ability to withstand the types of G-Forces potential new bombers and fighters are capable of generating. Alas, we are in a rut, and only when those nasty G-Forces get dealt with can the new generation of killer aircraft be deployed. And you can use your imagination to understand just how destabilizing and horrific such technology really is, and then you can heave a huge sigh of relief when you realize that out in space they don't use that stuff to make weapons of mass destruction. After all, you haven't had to kiss your sorry ass goodbye lately, have you. Neither did your parents or their parents or their parents. No, that would be the human race that would, of course, see something like that, and then, while claiming to spend billions going to Mars, actually be working on dual use technology to develop the next generation of space weapons of mass destruction (if you read the find print you will notice how as NASA works to get to Mars, there will be more and more ‘technology sharing' going on between NASA and the Pentagon, thus demonstrating that what we have here is dual use technology. And when you consider that like Bush, China's leaders also announced their plans to go to the moon (did they mention Mars, as well) then you can understand that what we have here is a rapidly developing new arms race, with the new Cold War building up right now between China and the United States to be the first nation to become the ultimate super power of the 21st century by developing the next generation of weapons of mass destruction which will dominate the planet from space. In this new arms race the United States is really in not much better position than China. What I mean is that the next super power to aggressively dominate the world and overthrow governments here and there and invade countries and so on might not be the Untied States. It could be China, since if China wings the new Space Arms Race, all the United States will have are some crappy nuclear weapons that can be shot down by the Chinese super power orbiting overhead, so you can see how the United States must take up the challenge first hurled down by China (Bush was actually a Johnny come lately since the ‘truly historic' announcement of the new arms race in space and the newly emerging cold war was made by the leaders of China several months ago, and historians will remember Bush's so called historic announcement as being the reply to China, after the White House and the Pentagon had a chance to think over what the Chinese were saying a couple of months back).
Now as I said, the arms race to put weapons of mass destruction into space is now underway. While I am happy that those who already have the technology haven't used for evil (you are reading this, after all) the idea of having China and the United States working toward the goal of space wars is something I don't care for, but, fortunately, since as I mentioned, there are already other people in space, and they don't want America and China out there doing what no one else does, well they can start making plans, but they shouldn't spend to much, because when the tax payers find out how stupid they were to waste that much money on something that just wasn't going to happen they will remember this current bunch even worse than Neville when it comes to making some history out of all this. What they will say, is, for example, ‘Did they have a sack over their heads when they made those decisions.' What I mean is that when people are walking around with a sack over their heads, well, its dark in a sack, and you can't see anything. If tripped over a table or walked into a wall that would be expected, but then do you really want history to record that ‘they wore sacks on their heads and thus fell down the well.' Doesn't sound smart. Actually, sounds atrociously stupid, but given that sack there is a place in history reserved for those who will be found listed on the same page as anyone else famous being real stupid.
The solution is simple. If you don't want to be remembered by history as someone who wore a sack over your head, then don't wear a sack over your head. This has been known to work, while that other thing, where someone goes digging a deeper hole has always been known to fail. The purpose of that hole was to prove once and for all that there was no sack, but everyone finds out about the sack in any case, so in the end you wind up being known as someone who wore a sack and who also dug deeper and deeper pits, and so you wind up being even more worse off than before you started.
Now having got that little business out of the way, we can move on to discussing useful ways of using technology. For example, there are those interested in solar power and I strongly urge you to turn your attention exclusively to phosphors. Once you get that turned into a battery, then we can move into the new solar age and end the oil age, since oil won't be able to compete on price with the sun, and then perhaps all our glaciers might not melt and our rivers dry up in the next couple of decades, although, given the life span of green houses gases in the atmosphere, we may very well be thirsty, but that sky high water bill would be more than offset by the fact that our power bill will be negligible, so even if we have to give hundreds and hundreds of dollars to the large water multinationals (the new oil of the future, by the way, if you are looking to get out of oil stocks and into something that will dominate the 21st century), well even if we get cleaned out for water, perhaps it will all even out and most people's utility bills will turn out about the same as they are now. Unfortunately as we bless humanity by pursuing the phosphor solar battery, just like all the highly advanced civilizations do, we will of course be helping the Pentagon to get one step closer to turning the technology into some kind of phosphor bomb, you know the kind that traps light energy and then suddenly blows up giving everyone in ten mile radius such a severe sun burn that they literally roast to death like a turkey (and other such useful devices...)
On the inevitability of punitive justice
In conclusion I change the topic briefly here to pick up on previous discussion on the matter of punitive justice. Here I once again justify the doctrine of punitive justice, in this case by demonstrating that punitive justice is in fact the norm for humanity, and thus not at all unusual, but rather about what you would expect.some practical real world examples...While nothing is permanent, and nothing is written in stone, and the future places before us infinite possible roads, nevertheless if we are brutally realistic we can see that the future in in fact predictable, punitive justice and punishing judgment is an outcome which is not all surprising, and this does make one wonder why humanity turns away from faith and trustfulness and instead marches in lockstep towards inevitable punitive justice...
You may have heard the ongoing story of the glaciers of the world. Over the last half of the previous century the glaciers of the world have been melting and retreating, with the pace quickening and the fatest rate of melt taking place during the tail end of the previous century, a time which was also the hottest on record, with record breaking temperatures being set and then broken and then broken again.
Perhaps you have seen the photographs of the retreating glaciers, the pictures telling pretty much the same story around the world. If you stand where the glacier once was 50 years ago, and you pull out your binoculars, you can see where the glacier is now, off in the distance. Mount Kilimanjaro's ice cap has shrunk to a fraction of its previous size.
Tropical glaciers in the Andes of Peru and the Mt. Kilimanjaro ice fields of East Africa are retreating at such an alarming rate that, if current warming trends continue, they could be completely ice free within 10-20 years, says glaciologist Professor Lonnie Thompson from Ohio State University.According to Professor Thompson, Quelccaya in Peru, the only true ice cap in the tropics, retreated 32 times faster in the last two years (1998-2000) than during the 20 years from 1963 to 1983, and the Mt. Kilimanjaro ice fields have retreated by at least 80% since 1912.What is particularly alarming about this retreat of the glaciers is that glaciers feed rivers, and rivers feed people. In the high Andes many millions of people are entirely dependant upon glaciers for all their drinking water.
The problem of disappering glaciers and the resulting change of the ecosystem is not one of those problems that 'will be faced by our grandchldren and great grandchildren', perhaps in the fast distant year 2110. The problem of massive alteration of the ecosystem, and declining lakes and rivers, with all the disruptive changes and perhaps even mass extinction events such change must bring, all these problems will be the problems of people who are alive today. (If they survive the ordeal, then they will stick their grandchildren with that problem, but not before sticking themselves with it first).
]What is remarkable here is that glacier melt cannot only be documented using graphics images (and is not a picture worth a thousand words). Glacier melt can also be subjected to mathematical analysis, and really, using some of the more simple mathematics, rather than more complex algebras, it would be possible to project that when such and such an amount of ice melts, a glacier will shrink such and such an amount, and then by dividing the melt into the total volume one can derive a mathematical solution which in this case describes the passage of time. For example, using the very easy math and easy round numbers, just to demonstrate the point , let us assume that we have 1000 tons of ice, and we melt off 50 tons per time period. In not to msny time periods would have Kilimanjaro (becoming close to being bald headed, shorn of glaciers) and after 20 time periods we would have nothing. For, using simple math, if we multiple the time period (20) by the melt rate (50 tons) we get the total volume of the theoretical glacier (1000 tons). I thought I would mention this common sense easy math since I know that when you talk to people about our melting glaciers, our sinking great lakes, our barely navigable mississippi river, there are always going to be those people who own some kind of stock that might go down, who will then start mocking about 'chicken little' and 'doomsday scenarios' and such talk, when, really, if you just did the math you could realize that maybe you should just ignore those people, and with any luck, they might pass on and thus no longer feel the urge to defend their portfolio.
Now the point to be made here is that losing those glaciers is a form of brutally punishing punitive justice (unless we debunk global warming, in which case we are just random victims of circumstances out of our control...that won't protect anyone's portfolio of investments, but I guess maybe it might feel better, or then again, given how we didn't have anything to do with it, I guess maybe it would protect our portfolios, because why stop when it isn't your fault...who wants to lose money, right). Once again the debunkers can be debunked using some simple common sense, as well as some easy math. Now if one can jack up the amount of green house gases by a third, and not jack up the greenhouse effect while doing so, then it also just follows logically that we are the hapless and tragically unfortunate victims of a cruel and capricious fate, for, after all, were we not subjected to punishing, punitive justice of the most brutal sort, and we just didn't deserve because we were not guilty?
Now I do not want to be so cynical here so as to suggest that all faithfulness and trustfulness is worthless. However I cannot avoid making note of the fact that faithfulness and trustfulness are subordinated in this world, and instead humanity pursues various forms of punitive justice'. Furthermore, the future can be very predictable, and even though there might be ten thousand different futures, you can usually pick out which one people will follow. It will be the one with all that punishing, brutal punitive justice. You see, you save money that way. Well, that's what they say, anyways, although if one was a longterm thinker, you would see how there really isn't a lot of money to be made on punitive justice, although perhaps a person could make a buck by diving right into the stocks of some water multinational start up right now before it gets merged into one giant sized water multinational in about a decade while all the smart money moves into something worth a hell of lot more than oil, and America suddenly starts geting real interested in any country that has a loy of really big lakes. Of course those lakes should be privatized, and today's smart investors would be out privatizing lakes in any third world country where it rains a lot (and hopefully, given climate change, will continue to rain...investing always comes with an element of risk, and the smart investor might want to hedge by sinking some money into a few mud holes in some arid regions just to be on the safe side).
While humanity walks toward the cliff there will denials that any such cliff really exists (debunking) or there will be the rosy scenario (by the time those glaciers cease to exist exist our technological prowess will allow us to import water from mars, or perhaps we will build gigantic artificial river systems to be fed by enormous desalination plants sucking water from the ocean. Of course right now we are heading for Mars, and heading into a financial hole, you know, the kind of hole where suddenly you need to borrow huge amounts of money to create artificial river systems to bring water, but, being tapped out for credit, you found that you just couldn't afford both Mars and Water at the same time. Given how predictable human societies can become, naturally it would be the case that even though we have about twenty years, and should get on it right now, what will actually happen is that we will get on it right about the time it becomes a catastrophe. Entire generations brought up on the fast food mentality will of course expect fast water.
Rivers in the Desert?
Speaking of fast water, I continue my ongoing experiment in faithfulness by monitoring conditions on the Sahara, as its known now, or Eden as its designation is by faith. Who knows, maybe it might even be possible to use faithfulness as an aid to help stop humanity from hanging themselves. As of today the cloud height maps shows a long streak as well as something of interest which has crossed the Atlantic over the last couple of days and is curently pushing in from the South West...and that would conclude the water report for January 20th, 2004...
