Dedication<br />
This book is dedicated to all Immortal Spiritual Beings, whether they are<br />
aware of themselves as such, or not. It is especially dedicated to the<br />
wisdom, courage <strong>and</strong> integrity of those Greater Beings, who in various<br />
incarnations at various times during the past, in the present <strong>and</strong> into the<br />
future, enkindle <strong>and</strong> carry the Flame of Truth into the darkest corners of the<br />
universe.<br />
This dedication is not only to the philosophical teachings <strong>and</strong> technologies<br />
developed by these beings, but to the demonstrated <strong>and</strong> documented<br />
courage to apply their philosophy in the face of overwhelming ignorance,<br />
overt hostility <strong>and</strong> aggressive suppression by lesser beings <strong>and</strong> by the selfserving<br />
vested interests of inter-galactic <strong>and</strong> planetary political, economic,<br />
<strong>and</strong> religious institutions.<br />
Though relatively few in number, the profound wisdom <strong>and</strong> heroic<br />
dedication of such beings, <strong>and</strong> those who share their quest, have been the<br />
only effective deterrent to spiritual slavery. Freedom, Communication,<br />
Creativity ,Trust <strong>and</strong> Truth for all Immortal Spiritual Beings in this universe<br />
is their legacy. <strong>The</strong> Good Examples set by them is our sanctuary <strong>and</strong><br />
sustenance. Personal, diligent application of their teachings is our weapon<br />
against the dwindling spiral of chaos <strong>and</strong> oblivion that is the material<br />
universe.<br />

Editorial Guidelines Used In This Book<br />
I have tried not to edit the material I received from Mrs. MacElroy except to<br />
the degree necessary to make a logical sequence of the material she mailed<br />
to me. Wherever possible I have quoted or transcribed her original written<br />
notes verbatim.<br />
In some instances I have taken editorial liberty to add other information, or<br />
supplementary commentary which I feel will add useful definitions, or<br />
clarification to the information given in the official transcripts, or to her<br />
remarks or observations. <strong>The</strong>se appear as a numbered "(Footnote)" in the<br />
Appendix at the end of the book. All footnote references, where possible,<br />
are copied verbatim from the free internet encyclopedia website<br />
www.wikipedia.org. If information was not available through Wikipedia.org,<br />
I used the popular internet search engine www.google.com to find a website<br />
reference that seemed most appropriate to the subject matter.<br />
Mrs. MacElroy did not make a notation of dates in the most of the<br />
documents, so I am not certain that the sequence of material matches the<br />
actual sequence of events, or sequence of the interviews, except as noted on<br />
the official transcripts themselves.<br />
Since it has been 60 years since the date of the interviews, <strong>and</strong> considering<br />
the age of Mrs. MacElroy before her death, I reasoned that she did not<br />
necessarily have an acute recollection of exact names, dates <strong>and</strong> times,<br />
except as recorded in the transcripts of July 8th through August 12th, 1947.<br />
<strong>The</strong> material in this book is organized into three different types. <strong>The</strong><br />

Introduction:<br />
<strong>The</strong> Mystery of UFOs <strong>and</strong> Extraterrestrials<br />
If you have studied UFO phenomena at all, you are already familiar with the<br />
infamous Orson Welles radio broadcast of "War of the Worlds, And <strong>The</strong><br />
Invasion from Mars" 1 (Footnote) on Oct. 30, 1938. This fictitious radio<br />
dramatization of an invasion of <strong>Earth</strong> by "aliens" incited a global UFO <strong>and</strong><br />
extraterrestrial hysteria long before the UFO crash near Roswell, N.M. in<br />
1947.<br />
During the past 60 years, since the alleged Roswell crash, there have been<br />
tens of thous<strong>and</strong>s of reported UFO sightings. A global hysteria has emerged<br />
from "evidence" of what is presumed to be extraterrestrial phenomenon.<br />
Concurrently, the unrelenting denial of this phenomenon by the U.S.<br />
government has precipitated an uninterrupted flurry of accusations, counter-<br />
accusations, cover-up conspiracy theories, lunatic fringe speculations,<br />
"scientific investigations", etc., etc., ad nauseam, <strong>and</strong> a growing multitude of<br />
similar alleged "close encounters".<br />
My first thought when I received the package of documents from Mrs.<br />
MacElroy was: "This is just another set of Majestic-12 documents".<br />
2 (Footnote) I am referring to a "mysterious package" reportedly received by<br />
mail in 1984 shortly after the death of the last surviving member of the socalled<br />
"Majestic-12" committee, alleged to have been organized by President<br />
Harry Truman shortly after the Roswell incident in 1947.<br />
<strong>The</strong>re are several similarities to the "Majestic-12" documents <strong>and</strong> the<br />
package I received from Mrs. MacElroy. In the case of the former, an<br />
envelope was sent from an anonymous sender with no return address. It<br />
contained an undeveloped roll of film. That's all. On the roll of film were<br />
photos of documents that were assumed to be authentic by the recipient <strong>and</strong><br />
his colleagues whose vested interest, i.e. livelihood, depend heavily on<br />
attracting public notice <strong>and</strong> credibility to themselves as "leading authorities"<br />
on the subject of UFO phenomena. <strong>The</strong>y have worked relentlessly since<br />
then to discover "proof" that the documents are authentic. Of course,<br />
government agencies deny everything alleged in the documents <strong>and</strong><br />
anything having to do with the subject of extraterrestrials in general.<br />
10
In addition, the subject has become so thoroughly overwhelmed with obvious<br />
false reports, discredited sources, hearsay, manufactured falsehoods,<br />
misunderst<strong>and</strong>ings, missing information, added inapplicable information <strong>and</strong><br />
a myriad of other conflicting complexities which have made the subject<br />
laughable or unapproachable as a science. This may be intentional, or<br />
simply a reflection of the general chaos <strong>and</strong> barbarism that is Humanity.<br />
As for government denials <strong>and</strong> cover-ups, the events of September 11, 2001,<br />
have made it abundantly apparent to me that the U.S. government has<br />
destroyed any vestige of trust the American people <strong>and</strong> the world may have<br />
harbored, even through the Vietnam war, Watergate, <strong>and</strong> many similar<br />
betrayals, in the "honesty" of the American government, military <strong>and</strong><br />
intelligence community, by blatantly lying to it's own people about almost<br />
anything <strong>and</strong> everything.<br />
In spite of vast numbers of "UFO sightings", innumerable reports of "alien<br />
abductions", <strong>and</strong> "close encounters" with extraterrestrials that pervade nearly<br />
all of prehistoric <strong>and</strong> recorded human history I found only one underlying,<br />
unifying, undisputable, axiomatic common denominator that permeates all of<br />
this data:<br />
Assuming that subjective reality, or beliefs, of individuals is acceptable<br />
evidence, there has been no universally agreed upon "proof" that UFOs <strong>and</strong><br />
/ or extraterrestrial life forms exist whether based on government admission ,<br />
physical evidence, circumstantial or subjective data.<br />
<strong>The</strong>re are several deductions I can infer from the lack of agreement,<br />
government admission or physical evidence that such things are real that, if<br />
verified, may lead to a workable solution to this mystery:<br />
deduction:<br />
In spite of an enormous collection of subjective, circumstantial <strong>and</strong> objective<br />
"evidence" of extraterrestrial activity on <strong>and</strong> around <strong>Earth</strong>, the existence,<br />
intentions <strong>and</strong> the activities of extraterrestrials remain hidden <strong>and</strong><br />
mysterious.<br />
deduction:<br />
Universally agreed upon proof of extraterrestrial life based on subjective<br />
data, government admission, physical <strong>and</strong> circumstantial evidence are<br />
subject to conflicting vested interests, which has made such proof<br />
unattainable.<br />
Collectively, these deductions beg the obvious question:<br />
If extraterrestrials life forms exist, why is there no consistent, forthright ,<br />
open, interactive communication between Mankind <strong>and</strong> Extraterrestrials?<br />
11
Fortunately, subjective reality does not require evidence or "proof".<br />
<strong>The</strong>refore, I decided to write this book in order to pass along a subjective<br />
communication I received from Mrs. MacElroy to other people who may be<br />
interested in it.<br />
Personally, I am not assuming that anything I received from Mrs. MacElroy is<br />
in any way authentic, with the exception of the envelope <strong>and</strong> the paper inside<br />
the envelope. I cannot substantiate any of it. Indeed, I can't truly verify that<br />
there was ever such a person as Mrs. MacElroy other than a voice I heard<br />
over the phone in 1998. <strong>The</strong> voice could have been anyone. Personally, I<br />
do not have a vested interest in UFO research. Yes, I've written a few books<br />
about immortal spiritual beings -- because I'm interested in the subject. But I<br />
haven't sold enough of those books to pay for the time it took to write them.<br />
It is a hobby. I earn my living as a small business consultant.<br />
It is not my intention to justify, explain, or remedy any disability to perceive or<br />
underst<strong>and</strong> the mysteries of extraterrestrial existence, UFOs, governments<br />
agendas or spiritual abilities. Nor is it intended to educate, persuade, or<br />
promote to anyone that any of these phenomena exist. Furthermore, what I<br />
may or may not think about any of this is irrelevant.<br />
Moreover, I have burned all of the original documents, including the envelope<br />
I received from Mrs. MacElroy. I do not want to spend the rest of my life<br />
being hounded by UFO researchers, government agents, grocery store<br />
tabloids reporters, UFO advocates <strong>and</strong> de-bunkers alike, or anyone else.<br />
Any "proofs" or attempts to authenticate the assertion that Mrs. MacElroy<br />
actually interviewed an alien in 1947 will have to be done by others.<br />
Ripley says, "Believe It, or Not". 3 (Footnote)<br />
I say, "What's true for you, is true for you".<br />

About <strong>The</strong> Source Of Material In This Book<br />
<strong>The</strong> content of this book is primarily excerpted from the letter, interview<br />
transcripts <strong>and</strong> personal notes I received from the late Matilda O'Donnell<br />
MacElroy. Her letter to me asserts that this material is based on her<br />
recollection of communication with an alien being, who "spoke" with her<br />
telepathically. During July <strong>and</strong> August of 1947 she interviewed an<br />
extraterrestrial being who she identifies as "Airl", <strong>and</strong> whom she claims was<br />
<strong>and</strong> continues to be an officer, pilot <strong>and</strong> engineer who was recovered from a<br />
flyer saucer that crashed near Roswell, New Mexico on July 8th, 1947.<br />
Obviously, anyone reading anything about this most famous, or infamous, of<br />
all "flying saucer" or "alien encounter" events must necessarily be highly<br />
suspicious regarding 1) the authenticity of the report <strong>and</strong> 2) the credibility of<br />
the source of information, especially when it appears for the first time sixty<br />
years after the alleged event!<br />
I received the aforementioned letter from Mrs. MacElroy on September 14th,<br />
2007, together with a package of documents. <strong>The</strong> package contained three<br />
types of documents:<br />
1) h<strong>and</strong>-written notes in cursive on ordinary, lined, 8 1/2" X 11"school<br />
notebook paper, which I assume had been written personally by Mrs.<br />
MacElroy.<br />
2) notes typed on a manual typewriter on plain, white 20 lb. bond paper,<br />
which I am assume were prepared personally by her. At least both had the<br />
appearance of having been written in the same h<strong>and</strong> writing, <strong>and</strong> / or typed<br />
on the same typewriter consistently throughout. <strong>The</strong> writing in the notes I<br />
received also appeared to be the same as the writing on the address <strong>and</strong><br />
return address of the manila envelope I received from Navan, Irel<strong>and</strong>, which<br />
was postmarked on 3 September, 2007. Since I am not a forensic expert, or<br />
h<strong>and</strong>writing analyst, my opinion in these matter is not a professionally<br />
qualified judgment.<br />
3) many pages of typewritten transcriptions of her interview with the alien.<br />
<strong>The</strong>se were obviously typed on a different typewriter. <strong>The</strong>se pages were<br />
typed on a different type of paper <strong>and</strong> showed apparent signs of age <strong>and</strong><br />
repeated h<strong>and</strong>ling.<br />
13
None of these notes were assembled in any particular order, or by date,<br />
except where indicated by a sentence or paragraph of preamble or<br />
explanation by her, or by extrapolation from the context of the pages.<br />
Voltaire 4 (Footnote) is quoted as having said: "History is a Mississippi of lies".<br />
According to the comments made by the alien in the interview transcripts,<br />
supplied by Mrs. MacElroy, the fundamental lesson of history is that many,<br />
many gods have become men, but very few men, if any, have returned to<br />
being a god again.<br />
According to the alien being -- "Airl" -- if anything he / she / it supposedly<br />
communicated can be trusted -- <strong>and</strong> if the "translation" or interpretation of<br />
this alleged communication is accurate, the history of this universe is a "River<br />
of Lies" down which the might <strong>and</strong> freedom of all-powerful, god-like, immortal<br />
spiritual beings ended <strong>and</strong> was lost in a Sea of Matter <strong>and</strong> Mortality.<br />
Furthermore, according to the very direct <strong>and</strong> undiplomatic statements made<br />
-- which seem to express the "personal opinion" of the alien -- if one were<br />
traveling the far reaches of the universe in search of a place called "Hell", it<br />
would be an accurate description of <strong>Earth</strong> <strong>and</strong> the inhabitants in its current<br />
condition.<br />
To further compound, complicate <strong>and</strong> magnify the "incredible" source of the<br />
"interview transcriptions" I received from Mrs. MacElroy is the fact that they<br />
are:<br />
1) based almost entirely on "telepathic communication" between the alien<br />
<strong>and</strong> Mrs. MacElroy.<br />
2) many of these interviews discuss "paranormal" activities of "immortal<br />
spiritual beings".<br />
Of course, most "scientific authorities" are unwilling to acknowledge or<br />
perceive spiritual phenomena of any kind.<br />
<strong>The</strong> dictionary definition of the word paranormal is:<br />
adjective:<br />
1. cannot be explained by scientific methods<br />
2. supernatural, or seemingly outside "normal" sensory channels<br />
By definition, people who use the word "paranormal" are 1) not able to<br />
explain spiritual phenomena <strong>and</strong> 2) spiritual phenomena are outside of their<br />
normal sensory channels.<br />
14
In short, scientists suffer from the inability <strong>and</strong>/or unwillingness to<br />
perceive <strong>and</strong>/or explain spiritual activities. <strong>The</strong>refore, the discussion of<br />
spiritual activities or spiritual universes in this book are expected to be<br />
understood only by those who can <strong>and</strong> will perceive such things.<br />
According to the time spans related by the alien in several of the interviews,<br />
there are a number of compelling <strong>and</strong> heretofore unknown reasons that<br />
suggest the possibility that many extraordinary miscalculations have been<br />
made by <strong>Earth</strong> scientists regarding the origins <strong>and</strong> antiquity of the universe,<br />
<strong>Earth</strong>, life forms <strong>and</strong> events. Of course, these may or may not be accurate<br />
either, as time <strong>and</strong> it's ugly step-child, history, are largely subjective.<br />
However, it can be observed that, by contrast with interstellar or<br />
"macrocosmic time", the historical perspective of residents of <strong>Earth</strong> is limited<br />
to a relatively microscopic period of time, compared to what are considered<br />
to be "recent events" in the chronology of an space travel civilization, much<br />
less the entire time span of the universe.<br />
<strong>The</strong> geological record of <strong>Earth</strong> is reckoned, by the best guesses of scientists,<br />
to be only about 4 billion years. <strong>The</strong> antiquity of homo sapiens in the<br />
archaeology textbooks is estimated at only a few million years, at most. Even<br />
the entire biological spectrum is considered to have existed on this planet for<br />
only a few hundred million years. And, by <strong>and</strong> large, the personal memory of<br />
individual beings on this planet is limited to only one lifetime.<br />
All other dates, events, or interpretations of events cited in this book are from<br />
terrestrial sources, which are purely subjective observations, conjectures, or<br />
inventions of human beings, including those of the author, <strong>and</strong> must<br />
therefore be credited or disregarded by the reader accordingly, considering<br />
the penchant of <strong>Earth</strong> inhabitants to myopia, egocentricity, <strong>and</strong> general<br />
ignorance of the several universes in which we dwell.<br />
This book is intended to be an informal presentation of information provided<br />
to me, sixty years after the fact, of a series of interviews between an alien<br />
space craft officer, pilot & engineer <strong>and</strong> an Army Air Force surgical nurse.<br />

Matilda O'Donnell MacElroy<br />
Biographical Information<br />
Since I have never met Mrs. MacElroy in person, <strong>and</strong> spoke with her over the<br />
phone only once for about 20 minutes, I can not vouch personally for her as<br />
a credible source of information. In fact, I cannot factually substantiate that<br />
such a person actually existed, accept that I did speak with her on the phone<br />
<strong>and</strong> I received h<strong>and</strong>-written material in the mail which was sent from a<br />
physical address in Irel<strong>and</strong>.<br />
When I spoke to her on the phone in 1998, I was living in Florida. At the time<br />
of our brief phone interview, Mrs. MacElroy lived on Scotty Pride Drive in<br />
Glasgow, Montana. I know this because I mailed a copy of my book, <strong>The</strong> Oz<br />
Factors, to her as a gift after it was published in 1999. I am sure she<br />
received the book, because she refers to it by name in the letter I received<br />
from Irel<strong>and</strong>, <strong>and</strong> says that she read it.<br />
I did a little research on the internet about Glasgow, Montana for my own<br />
interest. Glasgow was founded in 1887 as a railroad town that became<br />
popular during the 1930s because President FDR requested that Fort Peck<br />
Dam be constructed there which became a huge source of employment for<br />
the Glasgow area. In the 1960s the population flourished up to 12,000<br />
because of Glasgow Air Force Base (SAC), which was used during the<br />
Vietnam conflict <strong>and</strong> the earlier part of the 'Cold War'. <strong>The</strong> base was<br />
deactivated <strong>and</strong> closed in 1969.<br />
When I talked to Mrs. MacElroy on the phone she mentioned that she had<br />
been relocated there by the U.S. Air Force after her service was completed,<br />
<strong>and</strong> that's where she met her husb<strong>and</strong>, who was an engineer. I don't think<br />
she mentioned his first name. However, he worked on building the Fort Peck<br />
Dam, which created the massive Fort Peck Lake. Although the dam was<br />
finished in 1940, he was a great fisherman <strong>and</strong> outdoorsman, so he stayed in<br />
the area. I gathered that the Irish heritage of the place had something to do<br />
with it, but didn't pursue that point with her. I haven't been able to find any<br />
record of a "MacElroy" who worked at the dam, but the personnel records<br />
from that period are virtually non-existent as far as I can determine.<br />
I contacted her during my research for <strong>The</strong> Oz Factors book because I was<br />
led to believe, through a very circuitous line of investigation, that this women<br />
16
was suspected of having been involved with alien contact at Area 51, or the<br />
Roswell crash site, or something similar.<br />
Through a sequence of circumstantial inferences <strong>and</strong> accidental referrals, I<br />
actually found her number in the phone book <strong>and</strong> called her up just on the<br />
chance that there might really be such a person.<br />
Needless to say, when I called her she was less than forthcoming in her<br />
response to my questions. However, I think she was impressed by my<br />
genuine <strong>and</strong> innocent sincerity to get information for my book, <strong>and</strong> realized<br />
that I had no nefarious or financially motivated purposes or reason to exploit<br />
her in any way. Nonetheless, she did not give me any useful information at<br />
that time, except to say that she had been in the Army <strong>and</strong> was stationed in<br />
New Mexico in 1947.<br />
She could not discuss anything whatsoever about any kind of incident, as her<br />
life depended on remaining silent. Although this piqued my interest even<br />
more, it was futile to try to push her any further, so I gave up <strong>and</strong> forgot about<br />
her until last September, when I got the package from Irel<strong>and</strong>.<br />
I tried to contact her in Irel<strong>and</strong> at the return address on the package, but<br />
received no reply from her, nor have I been able to find anyone in Meath<br />
County, Irel<strong>and</strong> who was acquainted with either of them except the l<strong>and</strong>lady<br />
from whom they rented a room for a few weeks before their deaths, which<br />
seemed to have occurred simultaneously, although I have no real evidence<br />
of this.<br />
However, the post mark of the envelope she sent to me was stamped at the<br />
post office in Navan, Co. Meath, Irel<strong>and</strong> on the date sited above. Since there<br />
is an actual residence (according to Google Maps) at the return address<br />
shown on the envelope, I wrote to the address <strong>and</strong> was advised by the home<br />
owner that both Mrs. MacElroy <strong>and</strong> her husb<strong>and</strong>, whose name turns out to<br />
have been "Paul", were both recently deceased. She said that the cremated<br />
remains of Mrs. MacElroy <strong>and</strong> her husb<strong>and</strong> were interred at Saint Finian<br />
Cemetery on Athboy Road.<br />
Subsequently, I have not been able to find any record of her under the<br />
maiden name of O'Donnell, nor have I had any success at discovering any<br />
personal friend, family member or document to confirm her birth, medical<br />
education, or military record, marriage or death, with the exception of her<br />
l<strong>and</strong>lady in Irel<strong>and</strong> (who is not a relative) just before her death. I suspect that<br />
this is the false identity given to her by the military when she left Roswell, as<br />
mentioned in her notes.<br />
In either case, it seems likely that her identity <strong>and</strong> all evidence of her has<br />
been expunged from the public record. I underst<strong>and</strong> that certain government<br />
17
agencies are adept at covering up evidence, or making records (<strong>and</strong> people)<br />
disappear. It seems likely that this has been done in her case, due to the<br />
highly sensitive nature of the Roswell incident <strong>and</strong> consistent with the rest of<br />
the alleged "cover up".<br />
Inasmuch as I do not have any further information to verify or substantiate<br />
that any of the notes of these "interviews" sent to me by Mrs. MacElroy are in<br />
any way factual, other than what I have already mentioned, let the reader<br />
beware, <strong>and</strong> take heed accordingly!<br />

<strong>The</strong> Letter from Mrs. MacElroy<br />
_______________________________________________________________<br />
August 12, 2007<br />
Dear Lawrence,<br />
I am typing this letter to you on my old Underwood<br />
typewriter that I bought after I was discharged from the<br />
Army. Somehow it seems like a fitting contrast to the<br />
subject of this letter <strong>and</strong> the documents you will find<br />
enclosed in this envelope.<br />
<strong>The</strong> last time I spoke to you was about eight years ago.<br />
During your brief telephone interview with me you asked<br />
me to assist you with the research for "<strong>The</strong> Oz Factors"<br />
book you were writing because you suspected that I might<br />
know something that would help your investigation into<br />
the possibility that extraterrestrial beings may have<br />
influenced the history of <strong>Earth</strong>. When we spoke, I told<br />
you that I did not have any information that I could<br />
share with you about anything.<br />
Since then I have read your book <strong>and</strong> found it very<br />
interesting <strong>and</strong> compelling. You are obviously a man who<br />
has done his homework, <strong>and</strong> who could underst<strong>and</strong> my own<br />
experiences. I've been thinking a lot about your<br />
allusion to the old philosopher whom you paraphrased in<br />
our phone conversation: "with great power, comes great<br />
responsibility". Although I don't think power is<br />
pertinent in my life or to my reasons for sending you<br />
the enclosed documents, you certainly did get me<br />
thinking about my responsibility.<br />
I have reconsidered my position, for a variety of<br />
reasons, not the least of which is my realization that<br />
you were right. I do have a responsibility to myself,<br />
at least. I can not possibly tell you the personal Hell 5<br />
(Footnote) of ethical irresolution <strong>and</strong> spiritual ambivalence<br />
I have endured since 1947. I do not want to keep playing<br />
the game of "maybe I should have, or maybe I shouldn't<br />
have", through the rest of Eternity!<br />
19
Many men have been killed to extinguish the possibility<br />
of revealing the knowledge I have helped to withhold<br />
from society, until now. Only a small h<strong>and</strong>ful of people<br />
on <strong>Earth</strong> have seen <strong>and</strong> heard what I have had the burden<br />
of keeping secret for sixty years. All those years I<br />
thought that I had been entrusted with a great deal of<br />
confidence by the "powers that be" in our government,<br />
although I have often felt that power is greatly<br />
misguided, to "protect" Mankind from the certain<br />
knowledge that, not only do intelligent extraterrestrial<br />
life forms exist, but that they have <strong>and</strong> continue to<br />
aggressively monitor <strong>and</strong> invade the lives of everyone on<br />
<strong>Earth</strong> every day.<br />
<strong>The</strong>refore, I think the time has come to pass along my<br />
secret knowledge to someone I think will underst<strong>and</strong> it.<br />
I don't think it would be responsible of me to take the<br />
knowledge I have into the silent afterlife, beyond reach<br />
or recognition. I think there is a greater good to be<br />
served than protecting the "vested interests" for whom<br />
this information is considered a matter of "national<br />
security", whatever that means, <strong>and</strong> is therefore<br />
justification for making it "TOP SECRET". 6 (Footnote)<br />
Also, I am now 83 years old. I have decided to leave<br />
this body, which has outlasted it's usefulness to me,<br />
using a painless method of self-administered euthanasia. 7<br />
(Footnote) I have a very few months to live, <strong>and</strong> nothing to<br />
fear or lose.<br />
So, I have moved away from Montana, where my husb<strong>and</strong> <strong>and</strong><br />
I lived for most of my life, to spend our remaining days<br />
in a lovely rented upstairs bedroom in a house in the<br />
homel<strong>and</strong> of my husb<strong>and</strong>'s family in County Meath,<br />
Irel<strong>and</strong>. 8 (Footnote)<br />
I will die not far from "<strong>The</strong> Great Mound" at Knowth<br />
9 (Footnote),<strong>and</strong> Dowth, the "Fairy Mound of Darkness". <strong>The</strong>se<br />
are sacred "cairns" or massive stone structures that<br />
were erected about 3,700 BCE <strong>and</strong> engraved with<br />
indecipherable hieroglyphs -- about the same time as<br />
pyramids <strong>and</strong> other inexplicable stone monuments were<br />
being built all over the <strong>Earth</strong>.<br />
I am also not far from "<strong>The</strong> Hill of Tara", 10 (Footnote) that<br />
was once the ancient seat of power in Irel<strong>and</strong> where 142<br />
kings are said to have reigned in prehistoric <strong>and</strong><br />
20
historic times. In ancient Irish religion <strong>and</strong> mythology<br />
this was the sacred place of dwelling for the "gods" <strong>and</strong><br />
was the entrance to the "other world".<br />
Saint Patrick came to Tara to conquer the ancient<br />
religion of the pagans. He may have suppressed the<br />
religious practices in the area, but he certainly did<br />
not have any impact on the "gods" who brought these<br />
civilizations to <strong>Earth</strong>, as you will discover when you<br />
read the documents enclosed. <strong>The</strong>refore, this is a<br />
fitting location for my departure from this unholy world<br />
<strong>and</strong> final release from the burdens of this life.<br />
<strong>The</strong> crystal clear perspective of hindsight has revealed<br />
a higher purpose to me: assisting the survival of the<br />
planet, all living beings <strong>and</strong> life forms in our galaxy!<br />
<strong>The</strong> status quo of our government establishment has been<br />
to "protect the people" from knowledge of such matters.<br />
In fact, the only protection afforded by ignorance <strong>and</strong><br />
secrecy is to hide the private agenda of those in power<br />
to enslave others. And, by doing so, to disarm every<br />
perceived enemy, <strong>and</strong> ally, through superstition <strong>and</strong><br />
stupidity.<br />
<strong>The</strong>refore, I have enclosed the original <strong>and</strong> only<br />
existing copies of my personal notes <strong>and</strong> reflections on<br />
a matter which I have kept hidden from everyone, even my<br />
own family. I have also enclosed my copies of typed<br />
transcripts created by the stenographer who transcribed<br />
all of my interviews with the alien saucer pilot after<br />
each interview was finished. I do not have any copies<br />
of the tape recordings that were made of my interview<br />
reports. No one, until now, knows that I was able to<br />
secretly retain copies of the official interview<br />
transcripts.<br />
Now I am entrusting these documents to your discretion<br />
to impart to the world in any form or manner you see<br />
fit. My only request is that you do so in a way that<br />
will not threaten your own life or well being, if<br />
possible. If you were to incorporate these notes of my<br />
experiences into a work of fiction, such as a novel, the<br />
factual nature of the material could be easily dismissed<br />
or discredited by any agency for whom "national<br />
security" is used as a personal shield against scrutiny<br />
<strong>and</strong> justice.<br />
21
In so doing, you could "disavow any knowledge" of their<br />
true origin, <strong>and</strong> claim that it is a fictitious work of<br />
your imagination. Whoever said that "truth is stranger<br />
than fiction" was "right as rain". For most people all<br />
of this will be "unbelievable". Unfortunately, beliefs<br />
are not a reliable criteria for reality.<br />
Also, I am sure that if you were to show these notes to<br />
anyone that would prefer physical, economic or spiritual<br />
slavery over freedom, the subject matter contained in<br />
them would seem quite objectionable. If you attempted<br />
to published the documents as a matter of factual<br />
reporting in a newspaper or on the evening TV news they<br />
would be rejected out of h<strong>and</strong> as the work of a kook.<br />
<strong>The</strong> very nature of these documents make them<br />
unbelievable, <strong>and</strong> therefore discreditable. Conversely,<br />
the release of this information is potentially<br />
catastrophic for certain political, religious <strong>and</strong><br />
economic vested interests.<br />
<strong>The</strong>se documents contain information which is quite<br />
relevant to your interest <strong>and</strong> investigations into alien<br />
encounters <strong>and</strong> paranormal experience. To use your<br />
analogy in "<strong>The</strong> Oz Factors" book, I can honestly say<br />
that the few factual reports that have been made by<br />
others about "alien" influences are only a gentle breeze<br />
in the eye of an Apocalyptic Hurricane swirling around<br />
<strong>Earth</strong>. <strong>The</strong>re really are wizards <strong>and</strong> wicked witches <strong>and</strong><br />
flying monkeys in this universe!<br />
This information, which has been suspected <strong>and</strong>/or<br />
speculated upon by so many for so long, has been<br />
constantly denied by mainstream media, academia, <strong>and</strong> the<br />
Military-Industrial Complex 11 (Footnote) that President<br />
Eisenhower warned us about in his farewell address.<br />
As you known in July,1947,the Roswell Army Air Field<br />
(RAAF) 12 (Footnote) issued a press release stating that<br />
personnel from the field's 509th Bomb Group had<br />
recovered a crashed "flying disc" from a ranch near<br />
Roswell, New Mexico, sparking intense media interest. 13<br />
(Footnote)<br />
Later the same day, the Comm<strong>and</strong>ing General of the Eighth<br />
Air Force 14 (Footnote) stated that Major Jesse Marcel, who<br />
was involved with the original recovery of the debris,<br />
had recovered only the tattered remnants of a weather<br />
22
alloon. <strong>The</strong> true facts of the incident have been<br />
suppressed by the United States government since then.<br />
You may not know that I was enlisted in the U.S. Women's<br />
Army Air Force(WAC) 15 (Footnote) Medical Corp which was a<br />
part of the US Army back then. I was assigned to the<br />
509th Bomb Group as a Flight Nurse 16 (Footnote)at the time<br />
of the incident.<br />
When the news that there had been a crash was received<br />
at the base, I was asked to accompany Mr. Cavitt, the<br />
Counter Intelligence Officer, 17 (Footnote) to the crash site<br />
as the driver of his vehicle, <strong>and</strong> to render any needed<br />
emergency medical assistance to any survivors, if<br />
necessary. 18 (Footnote) <strong>The</strong>refore, I briefly witnessed the<br />
wreckage of an alien space craft, as well as the remains<br />
of the several alien personnel aboard the craft who were<br />
already dead.<br />
When we arrived I learned that one of the personnel on<br />
board the craft had survived the crash, <strong>and</strong> was<br />
conscious, <strong>and</strong> apparently uninjured. <strong>The</strong> conscious<br />
alien was similar in appearance, but not the same as,<br />
the others. 19 (Footnote)<br />
None of the other personnel present could communicate<br />
with the survivor, as the being did not communicate<br />
verbally or by any recognizable signs. However, while I<br />
examined the "patient" for injuries I immediately<br />
detected <strong>and</strong> understood that the alien being was<br />
attempting to communicate with me by "mental images", or<br />
"telepathic thought", 20 (Footnote) which projected directly<br />
from the mind of the being.<br />
I immediately reported this phenomenon to Mr. Cavitt. As<br />
no other person present could perceive these thoughts,<br />
<strong>and</strong> the alien seemed able <strong>and</strong> willing to communicate<br />
with me, it was decided, after a brief consultation with<br />
a senior officer, that I would accompany the surviving<br />
alien back to the base.<br />
This was partly due to the fact that I was a nurse, <strong>and</strong><br />
could attend to the physical needs of the alien, as well<br />
as serve as a non-threatening communicator <strong>and</strong><br />
companion. After all, I was the only woman at the site<br />
<strong>and</strong> the only one who was not armed. I was thereafter<br />
assigned permanently to serve as a "companion" of the<br />
alien at all times. 21 (Footnote)<br />
23
My duty was to communicate with <strong>and</strong> interview the alien<br />
<strong>and</strong> to make a complete report of all that I discovered<br />
to comm<strong>and</strong> authorities. Subsequently, I was supplied<br />
with specific lists of questions provided to me by<br />
military <strong>and</strong> non-military personnel, which I was to<br />
"interpret" for the alien, <strong>and</strong> record the responses to<br />
the questions provided.<br />
I also accompanied the alien at all times during medical<br />
testing <strong>and</strong> the many other examinations to which the<br />
alien was subjected by staff from numerous government<br />
agencies.<br />
I was given a promotion in rank to Senior Master<br />
Sergeant to improve my security rating, <strong>and</strong> to increase<br />
my pay grade from $54.00 a month to $138.00 a month, for<br />
this very unusual assignment. I performed these duties<br />
from July 7th through August,1947,at which time the<br />
alien "died" or departed the "body", as you will read<br />
about in my notes.<br />
Although I was never left entirely alone with the alien,<br />
as there were always military personnel, intelligence<br />
agency people <strong>and</strong> a variety of other officials present<br />
from time to time, I did have uninterrupted access to<br />
<strong>and</strong> communication with the alien being for nearly six<br />
weeks.<br />
Hereinafter is an overview <strong>and</strong> summary of my personal<br />
recollections of "conversations" with the alien craft<br />
pilot, whom I came to know by the identity of "Airl".<br />
I feel that it is my duty at this time, in the best<br />
interest of the citizens of <strong>Earth</strong>, to reveal what I have<br />
learned from my interaction with "Airl" during those six<br />
weeks, on the anniversary of her "death" or departure<br />
sixty years ago.<br />
Although I served as a nurse in the Army Air Force, I am<br />
not a pilot or technician. Further, I did not have any<br />
direct contact with the space craft or other materials<br />
recovered from the crash site at that time, or<br />
thereafter. To that degree it must be taken into<br />
consideration that my underst<strong>and</strong>ing of the<br />
communications I had with " Airl" are based on my own<br />
subjective ability to interpret the meaning of the<br />
thoughts <strong>and</strong> mental images I was able to perceive.<br />
24
Our communication did not consist of "spoken language",<br />
in the conventional sense. Indeed, the "body" of the<br />
alien had no "mouth" through which to speak. Our<br />
communication was by telepathy. At first, I could not<br />
underst<strong>and</strong> Airl very clearly. I could perceive images,<br />
emotions <strong>and</strong> impressions, but it was difficult for me to<br />
express these verbally. Once Airl learned the English<br />
language, she was able to focus her thoughts more<br />
precisely using symbols <strong>and</strong> meanings of words I could<br />
underst<strong>and</strong>. Learning the English language was done as a<br />
favor to me. It was more for my own benefit than hers.<br />
By the end of our interview sessions, <strong>and</strong> increasingly<br />
since then, I have become more comfortable with<br />
telepathic communication. I have become more adept at<br />
underst<strong>and</strong>ing Airl's thoughts as though they are my own.<br />
Somehow, her thoughts become my thoughts. Her emotions<br />
are my emotions. However, this is limited by her<br />
willingness <strong>and</strong> intention to share her own, personal<br />
universe with me. She is able to be selective about<br />
what communication I am allowed to receive from her.<br />
Likewise, her experience, training, education,<br />
relationships <strong>and</strong> purposes are uniquely her own.<br />
This is the symbol of "<strong>The</strong> Domain"<br />
<strong>The</strong> Domain is a race or civilization of which Airl, the<br />
alien I interviewed, is an officer, pilot <strong>and</strong> engineer<br />
serving in <strong>The</strong> Domain Expeditionary Force. <strong>The</strong> symbol<br />
represents the origin <strong>and</strong> unlimited boundary of the<br />
known universe, united <strong>and</strong> integrated into a vast<br />
civilization under the control of <strong>The</strong> Domain.<br />
Airl is currently stationed at a base in the asteroid<br />
belt which she refers as a "space station" in the solar<br />
system of <strong>Earth</strong>. First <strong>and</strong> foremost, Airl is herself.<br />
Secondarily, she voluntarily serves as an Officer, Pilot<br />
<strong>and</strong> Engineer in <strong>The</strong> Domain Expeditionary Force. In that<br />
capacity she has duties <strong>and</strong> responsibilities, but she is<br />
at leave to come <strong>and</strong> go as she pleases also.<br />
Please accept this material <strong>and</strong> make it known to as many<br />
people as possible. I repeat that it is not my<br />
intention to endanger your life with the possession of<br />
this material, nor do I really expect you to believe any<br />
25
of it either. However, I do sense that you can<br />
appreciate the value that such knowledge may have to<br />
those who are willing <strong>and</strong> able to face the reality of<br />
it.<br />
Mankind needs to know the answers to questions which are<br />
contained in these documents. Who are we? Where did we<br />
come from? What is our purpose on <strong>Earth</strong>? Is Mankind<br />
alone in the universe? If there is intelligent life<br />
elsewhere why have they not contacted us?<br />
It is vital that people underst<strong>and</strong> the devastating<br />
consequences to our spiritual <strong>and</strong> physical survival if<br />
we fail to take effective action to undo the longst<strong>and</strong>ing<br />
<strong>and</strong> pervasive effects of alien intervention on<br />
<strong>Earth</strong>.<br />
Perhaps the information in these documents will serve as<br />
a stepping stone to a better future for Mankind. I hope<br />
that you can be more clever, creative <strong>and</strong> courageous in<br />
the distribution of this information than I have been.<br />

Chapter One<br />
My First Interview With <strong>The</strong> Alien<br />
(MATILDA O'DONNELL MACELROY PERSONAL NOTE)<br />
"By the time the alien had been returned to the base I had already spent several hours<br />
with her. As I mentioned, Mr. Cavitt told me to stay with the alien, since I was the<br />
only person among us who could underst<strong>and</strong> her communication. I could not<br />
underst<strong>and</strong> my ability to "communicate" with the being. I had never before that time<br />
experienced telepathic communication with anyone.<br />
<strong>The</strong> non-verbal communication I experienced was like the underst<strong>and</strong>ing you might<br />
have when a child or a dog is trying to get you to underst<strong>and</strong> something, but much,<br />
much more direct <strong>and</strong> powerful! Even though there were no "words" spoken, or<br />
signs made, the intention of the thoughts were unmistakable to me. I realized later<br />
that, although I received the thought, I did not necessarily interpret it's meaning<br />
exactly.<br />
I think that the alien being was not willing to discuss technical matters, due to the<br />
nature of her position as an officer <strong>and</strong> pilot with the duty to maintain the security<br />
<strong>and</strong> confidentiality required by her own "unit" or organization. Any soldier who is<br />
captured by the "enemy" in the line of duty has a responsibility to withhold vital<br />
information, even in the face of interrogation or torture, of course.<br />
But, in spite of that, I have always felt that the alien being was not really trying to<br />
hide anything from me. I just never got that feeling. Her communication always<br />
seemed honest <strong>and</strong> sincere to me. But, I suppose you can never know for sure. I<br />
definitely feel that I shared a unique "bond" with the alien. It was a kind of "trust" or<br />
empathy that you have with a patient, or a child. I think this is because the alien<br />
could underst<strong>and</strong> that I was really interested in "her" <strong>and</strong> had no harmful intention,<br />
nor would I allow any harm to come to her, if I could prevent it. This was true too.<br />
I refer to the alien as "her". Actually, the being was not sexual in any way, either<br />
physiologically or psychologically. "She" did have a rather strong, feminine<br />
presence <strong>and</strong> demeanor. However, in terms of physiology, the being was "asexual"<br />
<strong>and</strong> had no internal or external reproductive organs. Her body was more like the<br />
body of a "doll" or "robot". <strong>The</strong>re were no internal "organs", as the body was not<br />
constructed of biological cells. It did have a kind of "circuit" system or electrical<br />
27
nervous system that ran throughout the body, but I could not underst<strong>and</strong> how it<br />
worked.<br />
In stature <strong>and</strong> appearance the body was quite short <strong>and</strong> petite. About a 40 inches tall.<br />
<strong>The</strong> head was disproportionately large, relative to arms, legs <strong>and</strong> torso, which where<br />
thin. <strong>The</strong>re were three "fingers" on each of two" h<strong>and</strong>s" <strong>and</strong> "feet" which were<br />
somewhat prehensile. 22 (Footnote) <strong>The</strong> head had no operational "nose" or "mouth"<br />
or "ears". I understood that a space officer does not need these as space has no<br />
atmosphere to conduct sound. <strong>The</strong>refore, sound related sensory organs are not built<br />
into the body. Nor does the body need to consume food, hence, the absence of a<br />
mouth.<br />
<strong>The</strong> eyes were quite large. I was never able to determine the exact degree of visual<br />
acuity of which the eyes were capable, but I observed that her sense of sight must<br />
have been extremely acute. I think the lenses of the eyes, which were very dark <strong>and</strong><br />
opaque, may also have been able to detect waves or particles beyond the visual<br />
spectrum of light. 23 (Footnote) I suspect that this may have included the full range<br />
of the electromagnetic spectrum, 24 (Footnote) or more, but I do not know this for<br />
sure.<br />
When the being looked at me her gaze seemed to penetrate right through me, as<br />
though she had "x-ray vision". 25 (Footnote) I found this a little embarrassing, at first,<br />
until I realized that she had no sexual intentions. In fact, I don't think she ever even<br />
had the thought that I was male or female.<br />
It become very obvious after a short time with the being that her body did not require<br />
oxygen, food or water or any other external source of nutrition or energy. As I<br />
learned later, this being supplied her own "energy", which animated <strong>and</strong> operated the<br />
body. It seemed a little bit eerie at first, but I got used to the idea. It's really a very,<br />
very simple body. <strong>The</strong>re is not much to it, compared to our own bodies.<br />
Airl explained to me that it was not mechanical, like a robot, nor was it biological. It<br />
is animated directly by her as a spiritual being. Technically, from a medical<br />
st<strong>and</strong>point, I would say that Airl's body could not even be called "alive". Her "doll"<br />
body is not a biological life form, 26 (Footnote) with cells, <strong>and</strong> so forth.<br />
It had a smooth skin, or covering which was gray in color. <strong>The</strong> body was highly<br />
tolerant to changes in temperature, atmospheric conditions, <strong>and</strong> pressure. <strong>The</strong> limbs<br />
were quite frail, without musculature. In space there is no gravity, 27 (Footnote) so<br />
very little muscle strength is needed. <strong>The</strong> body was used almost entirely on space<br />
craft or in low, or no-gravity environments. Since <strong>Earth</strong> has a heavy gravity, the<br />
body was not able to walk around very well as the legs were not really suited to that<br />
purpose. <strong>The</strong> feet <strong>and</strong> h<strong>and</strong>s were quite flexible <strong>and</strong> agile however.<br />
Over night, before my first interview with the alien, the area had been transformed<br />
into a buzzing hive of activity. <strong>The</strong>re were a dozen men working on setting up lights<br />
28
<strong>and</strong> camera equipment. A motion picture camera <strong>and</strong> microphone <strong>and</strong> a tape<br />
recorder was there also set up in the "interview room". (I don't underst<strong>and</strong> why a<br />
microphone was needed, since there was no verbal communication possible with the<br />
alien.) <strong>The</strong>re was also a stenographer 28 (Footnote) <strong>and</strong> several people busily typing<br />
on typewriters.<br />
I was informed that an expert foreign language interpreter <strong>and</strong> a "code breaking"<br />
team had been flown to the base during the night to assist with my efforts to<br />
communicate with the alien. <strong>The</strong>re were also several medical personnel --<br />
specialists in various fields -- to examine the alien. And, a professor of psychology<br />
was there to help formulate questions <strong>and</strong> "interpret" the answers. As I was just a<br />
nurse, I was not considered to be a "qualified" interpreter, even though I was the only<br />
one there who could underst<strong>and</strong> anything the alien was thinking!<br />
<strong>The</strong>re were many subsequent conversations between us. Each "interview" resulted in<br />
an exponential increase in underst<strong>and</strong>ing between us, as I will discuss later on in my<br />
notes. This is the first transcript with the answers to a list of questions provided to<br />
me by the intelligence officer at the base which I debriefed to the stenographer<br />
immediately following the interview."<br />

ANSWER -<br />
THROUGH MIND /THOUGHT.<br />
<strong>The</strong> words "mind" <strong>and</strong> "thought" combined together are<br />
the closest English language words I can think of to<br />
describe the idea at this time. However, it was very<br />
obvious to me that they communicate directly from the<br />
mind, just as she is communicating with me.<br />
QUESTION - "Do you have a written language or symbols<br />
for communication?"<br />
ANSWER -<br />
YES<br />
QUESTION - "What planet are you from?"<br />
ANSWER -<br />
31
<strong>THE</strong> HOME / BIRTHPLACE WORLD OF <strong>THE</strong> DOMAIN<br />
Since I am not an astronomer, I have no way of<br />
thinking in terms of stars, galaxies, constellations<br />
<strong>and</strong> directions in space. <strong>The</strong> impression I received<br />
was of a planet in the center of a huge cluster of<br />
galaxies that is to her like "home", or "birthplace".<br />
<strong>The</strong> word "domain" is the closest word I can think of<br />
to describe her concept, images <strong>and</strong> thoughts about<br />
where she is from. It could as easily be called the<br />
"territory" or the "realm". However, I am sure that<br />
it was not just a planet or a solar system or a<br />
cluster of stars, but an enormous number of galaxies!<br />
QUESTION - "Will your government send representatives<br />
to meet with our leaders?"<br />
ANSWER -<br />
NO<br />
QUESTION - "What are your intentions concerning<br />
<strong>Earth</strong>?"<br />
ANSWER -<br />
PRESERVE / PROTECT PROPERTY OF <strong>THE</strong> DOMAIN<br />
QUESTION - "What have you learned about <strong>Earth</strong><br />
governments <strong>and</strong> military installations?"<br />
ANSWER -<br />
POOR / SMALL. DESTROY PLANET.<br />
QUESTION - "Why haven't your people made your<br />
existence known to the people of <strong>Earth</strong>?"<br />
ANSWER -<br />
WATCH / OBSERVE. NO CONTACT.<br />
I got the impression that contact with people on<br />
<strong>Earth</strong> was not permitted, but I could not think of a<br />
word or idea that communicated the impression I got<br />
exactly. <strong>The</strong>y are just observing us.<br />
32
QUESTION - "Have your people visited <strong>Earth</strong>’s<br />
previously?"<br />
ANSWER -<br />
PERIODIC / REPEATING OBSERVATIONS.<br />
QUESTION - "How long have you known about <strong>Earth</strong>?"<br />
ANSWER -<br />
LONG BEFORE HUMANS.<br />
I am not sure if the word "prehistoric" would be more<br />
accurate, but it was definitely a very long period of<br />
time before human beings evolved.<br />
QUESTION - "What do you know about the history of<br />
civilization on <strong>Earth</strong>?"<br />
ANSWER -<br />
SMALL INTEREST / ATTENTION. SMALL TIME.<br />
<strong>The</strong> answer to this question seemed very vague to me.<br />
However, I perceived that her interest in <strong>Earth</strong><br />
history is not very strong or that she did not pay<br />
much attention to it. Or, maybe, ... I don't know.<br />
I didn't really get an answer to the question.<br />
QUESTION - "Can you describe your home world to us?"<br />
ANSWER -<br />
PLACE OF CIVILIZATION / CULTURE / HISTORY. LARGE<br />
PLANET. WEALTH / RESOURCES ALWAYS. ORDER. POWER.<br />
KNOWLEDGE / WISDOM. TWO STARS. THREE MOONS.<br />
QUESTION - "What is the state of development of your<br />
civilization?"<br />
ANSWER -<br />
ANCIENT. TRILLIONS OF YEARS. ALWAYS. ABOVE ALL<br />
O<strong>THE</strong>RS. PLAN. SCHEDULE. PROGRESS. WIN. HIGH GOALS<br />
/ IDEAS.<br />
33
I use the number "trillions" 30 (Footnote) because I am<br />
sure that the meaning was a number larger than many<br />
billions. <strong>The</strong> idea of the length of time she<br />
communicated is beyond me. It's really closer to<br />
the idea of "infinity" in terms of <strong>Earth</strong> years.<br />
QUESTION - "Do you believe in God?"<br />
ANSWER -<br />
WE THINK. IT IS. MAKE IT CONTINUE. ALWAYS.<br />
I am sure that the alien being does not underst<strong>and</strong><br />
the concept of "god" or "worship" as we do. I assume<br />
that the people in her civilization were all<br />
atheists. My impression was that they think very<br />
highly of themselves <strong>and</strong> are very prideful indeed!<br />
QUESTION - "What type of society do you have?"<br />
ANSWER -<br />
ORDER. POWER. FUTURE ALWAYS. CONTROL. GROW.<br />
<strong>The</strong>se are the closest words I could use to describe<br />
the idea she had about her own society or<br />
civilization. Her "emotion" when communicating her<br />
response to this question became very intense, very<br />
bright <strong>and</strong> emphatic! Her thought was filled with an<br />
emotion that gave me a feeling of jubilation or joy.<br />
But, it made me very nervous also.<br />
QUESTION - "Are there other intelligent life forms<br />
besides yourself in the universe?"<br />
ANSWER -<br />
EVERYWHERE. WE ARE GREATEST / HIGHEST OF ALL.<br />
Due to her small stature, I am sure that she did not<br />
mean "tallest" or "biggest". Again, her prideful<br />
"nature" showed through in the feeling I received<br />
from her."<br />

"This was the conclusion of the first interview. When the answers to the first<br />
list of questions were typed <strong>and</strong> given to the people who were waiting for them,<br />
they were very excited that I was able to get the alien to say anything!<br />
However, after they finished reading my answers they were disappointed that I<br />
could not underst<strong>and</strong> more clearly. Now they had a lot of new questions<br />
because of the answers I received to the first list of questions.<br />
An officer told me to await further instructions. I waited for several hours in the<br />
adjoining office. I was not allowed to continue my "interview" with the alien.<br />
However, I was always well treated <strong>and</strong> allowed to eat <strong>and</strong> sleep <strong>and</strong> use the<br />
restroom facilities whenever I wanted.<br />
Eventually, a new list of questions was written for me to ask the alien. I<br />
gathered that quite a few other agents, government <strong>and</strong> military officials had<br />
arrived at the base by this time. <strong>The</strong>y told me that several other people would be<br />
in the room with me during the next interview so they could prompt me to ask<br />
for more details during the interview. However, when I attempted to conduct<br />
the interview with these people in the room, I received no thoughts, emotions or<br />
any other perceptible communication from the alien. Nothing. <strong>The</strong> alien just sat<br />
in a chair without moving.<br />
We all left the interview room. <strong>The</strong> intelligence agent became very agitated<br />
about this. He accused me of lying or making up the answers to the first<br />
questions. I insisted that my answers were honest, <strong>and</strong> as accurate as I could<br />
make them!<br />
Later that day, it was decided that several other people would attempt to ask<br />
questions of the alien. However, in spite of several attempts by different<br />
"experts", no one else was ever able to get any communication at all from the<br />
alien.<br />
Over the next several days a psychic research scientist from back East was<br />
flown to the base to interview the alien. Her name was Gertrude something or<br />
other. I don't recall the last name. 31 (Footnote) On another occasion an Indian<br />
clairvoyant named Krishnamurti 32 (Footnote) came to the base to try to<br />
communicate with the alien . Neither one was successful at getting the alien to<br />
communicate anything. I was personally not able to communicate telepathically<br />
with either of these people either, although I did think that Mr. Krishnamurti<br />
was a very kind <strong>and</strong> intelligent gentleman.<br />
Finally, it was decided that I should be left with the alien by myself to see if I<br />
could get any answers."<br />

SUBJECT: <strong>ALIEN</strong> <strong>INTERVIEW</strong>, 10. 7. 1947<br />
"QUESTION - "Why have you stopped communicating?"<br />
ANSWER -<br />
NO STOP. O<strong>THE</strong>RS. HIDDEN / COVERED. SECRET FEAR.<br />
<strong>The</strong> alien can not communicate with them because they<br />
were afraid of her, or do not trust her. And, it is<br />
clear to me that the alien is very aware that some<br />
people have secret intentions toward her <strong>and</strong> are hiding<br />
their real thoughts. It is equally obvious to me that<br />
the alien does not have even a tiny bit of fear of us,<br />
or anything else, for that matter!"<br />
(MATILDA O'DONNELL MACELROY PERSONAL NOTE)<br />
"I pondered the words I chose to convey the meaning of the aliens thoughts very<br />
carefully before reporting to the stenographer <strong>and</strong> the people who were waiting<br />
anxiously in the other room.<br />
Personally, I never suffered any fear or misapprehension about the alien<br />
whatsoever. I was very, very curious <strong>and</strong> excited to learn anything <strong>and</strong><br />
everything I could about her <strong>and</strong> from her. However, like the alien, I did not<br />
have much trust or confidence in the agents or "authorities" who were<br />
36
controlling my interviews. I had no idea what their intentions toward her might<br />
be. However, I am sure that the military officers were very, very nervous about<br />
having an alien space craft <strong>and</strong> pilot on their h<strong>and</strong>s!<br />
At that moment, my greatest worry was how to more clearly underst<strong>and</strong> the<br />
thoughts <strong>and</strong> ideas of the alien. I think that I was doing pretty well as a<br />
telepathic "receiver", but not as good as telepathic "sender".<br />
I wanted desperately to figure out a better way to communicate with the alien in<br />
a way that would enable the growing legion of government officials to<br />
underst<strong>and</strong> her more directly, without having to rely on my interpretation of her<br />
thoughts. I did not feel very well qualified to act as an interpreter, yet I was the<br />
only person with whom the alien would communicate, so it was up to me to get<br />
the job done.<br />
I was also becoming acutely aware that this was probably the biggest "news<br />
event" in the history of <strong>Earth</strong>, <strong>and</strong> that I should be proud to have any part in it.<br />
Of course by that time the entire incident had been officially denied in the press<br />
<strong>and</strong> a cover-up of immense proportions by the military <strong>and</strong> the "powers that be"<br />
33 (Footnote) had already begun.<br />
However, I was beginning to feel the pressure of the responsibility for being the<br />
first person on <strong>Earth</strong>, as far as I knew, to communicate with an extraterrestrial<br />
life form! I think I know how Columbus 34 (Footnote) must have felt when he<br />
discovered a "new world" the size of a continent on one small planet. But, I was<br />
about to discover an entirely new, unexplored universe! 35 (Footnote)<br />
While I waited for my next instructions from my superiors I went to my<br />
quarters, under escort of several heavily armed MPs. Several other men dressed<br />
in black suits <strong>and</strong> ties accompanied me also. <strong>The</strong>y were still there when I got up<br />
in the morning. After breakfast, which was brought to me in my own quarters,<br />
they escorted me back to the office at the base that was used for the interview."<br />
37
Chapter Three<br />
My Third Interview<br />
(MATILDA O'DONNELL MACELROY PERSONAL NOTE)<br />
"<strong>The</strong> third interview, <strong>and</strong> all subsequent interviews that I had with the alien were<br />
observed <strong>and</strong> recorded, as I mentioned above, by dozens of other people.<br />
Although they were not physically present, a special room had been constructed<br />
with a window of one-way glass through which the interview could be observed<br />
from an adjoining room, without intruding on the alien.<br />
<strong>The</strong> alien had been moved into the newly constructed room <strong>and</strong> was seated in an<br />
ordinary overstuffed living room chair covered with a flowery fabric. I'm sure<br />
that someone had been sent into town to buy a chair from the nearest available<br />
furniture store. <strong>The</strong> aliens body was about the same size as a very thin 5 year<br />
old child, so she was dwarfed by the chair.<br />
Since her body was not biological it didn't need any food, air or heat, <strong>and</strong><br />
apparently, she didn't sleep either. <strong>The</strong>re were no eyelids, or eyebrows above<br />
her eyes, so the eyes didn't close. I don't think anyone could tell whether she was<br />
sleeping or awake as long as she was sitting upright in the chair. Unless she<br />
moved her body or gestured with her h<strong>and</strong>, it would be hard to tell whether she<br />
was even alive or not, unless you could perceive her thoughts.<br />
Eventually, I learned that the alien was not identified by her body, but by her<br />
"personality", so to speak. She was known by her fellow aliens as "Airl". This<br />
is the closest word I can use to describe the name using the English alphabet. I<br />
sensed that she preferred the feminine gender. I think we shared a natural,<br />
female empathy <strong>and</strong> nurturing attitude toward life <strong>and</strong> each other. I am sure she<br />
did not feel comfortable with the combative, aggressive, domineering attitude of<br />
the male officers <strong>and</strong> agents, each of whom was more concerned with their own<br />
personal self-importance <strong>and</strong> power than with discovering the secrets of the<br />
universe!<br />
When I entered the room, she was very pleased to see me. I felt a very genuine<br />
sense of recognition, relief <strong>and</strong> a "warm" feeling from her. It was like the eager<br />
excitement <strong>and</strong> unconditional, platonic affection one feels from a dog or child,<br />
yet with a calm <strong>and</strong> reserved control. I must say that I was surprised that I felt<br />
the same sort of affection for the alien being, especially since we had spent so<br />
38
little time with each other. I was pleased that I was able to continue my<br />
interviews with her in spite of all the attention it was getting from the stream of<br />
government <strong>and</strong> military people arriving at the base.<br />
It was very obvious that the people who wrote the next series of questions for<br />
me wanted to learn how to communicate with the alien themselves, without<br />
having to go through me.<br />
Here are the answers to the new list of questions:"<br />

"I was very sure that this was not true. But, I understood clearly that Airl was<br />
not willing to communicate in writing or drawing or sign language. My feeling<br />
was that she was following orders, like any soldier who has been captured, not to<br />
reveal any information that might be useful to an enemy, even under torture. She<br />
was only able <strong>and</strong> willing to reveal non-confidential, or personal information, or<br />
"name, rank <strong>and</strong> serial number"."<br />

"QUESTION - Can you show us on a map of the stars<br />
which is the star of your home planet? 36 (Footnote)<br />
ANSWER -<br />
NO.<br />
This is not because she does not know the directions<br />
from <strong>Earth</strong> to her home planet. She was unwilling to<br />
reveal the location. It was also due to the fact that<br />
the star system of her home planet does not exist on<br />
any star map on <strong>Earth</strong>. It is too far away.<br />

"<strong>The</strong>se questions took me only a few minutes to complete. I realized then that<br />
we may be in for some serious trouble if the alien was not willing to cooperate,<br />
or reveal any information that the military or intelligence agencies or scientists<br />
considered to be useful to them.<br />
I was also sure that the alien was very certain of the actual intentions of the<br />
people who wrote these questions, as she could "read their minds" just as easily<br />
as she could read my thoughts <strong>and</strong> communicate with me telepathically. Because<br />
of these intentions, she was unwilling <strong>and</strong> unable to cooperate with any of them<br />
in any way, under any circumstances. I am equally sure that since she was not a<br />
biological life form, that there was no kind of torture or coercion that would<br />
change her mind!"<br />

<strong>The</strong> Language Barrier<br />
(MATILDA O'DONNELL MACELROY PERSONAL NOTE)<br />
"After I explained what I thought were the reasons for the "no answer" answer to<br />
the intelligence agents, there was a great deal of upset <strong>and</strong> turmoil. A very<br />
heated discussion took place between some of the intelligence officers, military<br />
officials, psychologist <strong>and</strong> the language interpreters. This lasted for several<br />
hours. It was finally decided that I should be allowed continue to interview the<br />
alien, provided I could get a satisfactory answer from her to the following<br />
question:"<br />

"QUESTION - "What assurance or proof do you require<br />
from us that will make you feel safe enough to answer<br />
our questions."<br />
ANSWER -<br />
ONLY SHE SPEAKS. ONLY SHE HEARS. ONLY SHE<br />
QUESTIONS. NO O<strong>THE</strong>RS. MUST LEARN / KNOW /<br />
UNDERSTAND."<br />
(MATILDA O'DONNELL MACELROY PERSONAL NOTE)<br />
"When I returned from the interview room to report the alien response to this<br />
question I received a grim <strong>and</strong> skeptical reception from the assembled<br />
intelligence agents <strong>and</strong> military personnel. <strong>The</strong>y could not underst<strong>and</strong> what the<br />
alien meant by this.<br />
42
I admitted that I couldn't really underst<strong>and</strong> what she meant either, but I was<br />
doing the best I could to articulate her telepathic intentions. I told the officials<br />
that perhaps the communication problem had to do with my inability to<br />
underst<strong>and</strong> the telepathic language of the alien clearly enough to be satisfactory.<br />
I was so discouraged at that point I almost felt like giving up!<br />
And now, there was even more arguments than before! I was sure I was going<br />
to be removed from my position, in spite of the fact that the alien refused to<br />
communicate with anyone else, or that no one else had been found who could<br />
communicate with her.<br />
Fortunately, a very clever fellow named John Newble, who was a Japanese<br />
language specialist from the Navy, 37 (Footnote) had an explanation <strong>and</strong> a<br />
solution to the problem. He explained that, first, the problem had very little to<br />
do with the inability of the alien to communicate. It had more to do with her<br />
unwillingness to communicate with anyone other than myself. Second, in order<br />
for any clear, comprehensive communication to happen, both parties needed to<br />
underst<strong>and</strong> <strong>and</strong> communicate through a common language.<br />
Words <strong>and</strong> symbols in language convey very precise concepts <strong>and</strong> meanings.<br />
He said that the Japanese people have a lot of homonyms 38 (Footnote) in their<br />
language which cause a lot of confusion in day to day communication. <strong>The</strong>y<br />
solve this problem by using st<strong>and</strong>ard Chinese characters 39 (Footnote) to write<br />
down the exact meanings of the word they are using. This clears up the matter<br />
for them.<br />
Without a defined nomenclature communication was not possible beyond the<br />
rudimentary underst<strong>and</strong>ing between men <strong>and</strong> dogs, or between two small<br />
children. <strong>The</strong> lack of a common vocabulary of clearly defined words that all<br />
parties can use fluently, was the limiting factor in communication between all<br />
people, groups, or nations.<br />
<strong>The</strong>refore, he suggested that there were only two choices. I had to learn to<br />
speak the language of the alien, or the alien had to learn to speak English.<br />
Factually only one choice was possible: that I persuade Airl to learn English,<br />
<strong>and</strong> that I teach it to her with the guidance of the language specialist. No one<br />
had any objection to trying this approach, as there were no other suggestions.<br />
<strong>The</strong> language specialists suggested that I take several children's books, <strong>and</strong> a<br />
basic reading primer, <strong>and</strong> grammar text with me into the interview room. <strong>The</strong><br />
plan was that I would sit next to the alien <strong>and</strong> read aloud to her from the books,<br />
while pointing to the text I was reading with my finger so that she could follow<br />
along.<br />
<strong>The</strong> theory was that the alien could eventually be taught to read, just as a child is<br />
taught to read by word <strong>and</strong> sound association with the written word, as well as<br />
43
instruction in fundamental grammar. <strong>The</strong>y also assumed, I think, that if the<br />
alien was intelligent enough to communicate with me telepathically, <strong>and</strong> fly a<br />
space craft across the galaxy, that she could probably learn to speak a language<br />
as quickly as a 5 year old, or faster!<br />
I returned to the interview room <strong>and</strong> proposed this idea to Airl. She did not<br />
object to learning the language, although she did not make any commitment to<br />
answer questions either. No one else had a better idea, so we went ahead."<br />
44
Chapter Five<br />
Reading Lessons<br />
(MATILDA O'DONNELL MACELROY PERSONAL NOTE)<br />
"I began the reading lessons with the first pages of a school book that had been used<br />
to teach pioneer children in the 1800s on the frontiers of America. It is called<br />
"McGuffey's Eclectic Reader, Primer Through Sixth". 40 (Footnote)<br />
Since I am a nurse, <strong>and</strong> not a teacher, the language expert who gave me the books<br />
also gave me an extensive briefing -- a course that took an entire day -- on how to<br />
use the books to teach the alien. He said the reason he chose these particular books<br />
was because the original 1836 version of these books were used for three-quarters of<br />
a century to teach about four-fifths of all American school children how to read. No<br />
other books ever had so much influence over American children for so long.<br />
McGuffey's educational course begins in "<strong>The</strong> Primer" by presenting the letters of<br />
the alphabet to be memorized, in sequence. Children were then taught, step by step,<br />
to use the building blocks of the language to form <strong>and</strong> pronounce words, using the<br />
phonics method 41 (Footnote) which involves teaching children to connect sounds<br />
with letters. Each lesson begins with a study of words used in the reading exercise<br />
<strong>and</strong> with markings to show the correct pronunciation for each word.<br />
I discovered that the stories in the "First <strong>and</strong> Second Readers" picture children in<br />
their relationship with family members, teachers, friends, <strong>and</strong> animals. <strong>The</strong> "Third,<br />
Fourth, Fifth <strong>and</strong> Sixth Readers" exp<strong>and</strong>ed on those ideas. One of the stories I<br />
remember was "<strong>The</strong> Widow <strong>and</strong> the Merchant". It's kind of a morality tale about a<br />
merchant who befriends a widow in need. Later, when the widow proves herself to<br />
be honest, the merchant gives her a nice gift. <strong>The</strong> books do not necessarily teach you<br />
to believe that charity is expected only of wealthy people though. We all know that<br />
generosity is a virtue that should be practiced by everyone.<br />
All of the stories were very wholesome <strong>and</strong> they gave very good explanations to<br />
illustrate virtues like honesty, charity, thrift, hard work, courage, patriotism,<br />
reverence for God, <strong>and</strong> respect for parents. Personally, I would recommend this book<br />
to anyone!<br />
I also discovered that the vocabulary used in the book was very advanced compared<br />
to the relatively limited number of words people use commonly in our modern age. I<br />
45
think we have lost a lot of our own language since our Founding Fathers wrote the<br />
Declaration of Independence over 200 years ago!<br />
As instructed, I sat next to Airl in the interview room reading aloud to her from each<br />
successive book in the series of McGuffey's Readers. Each of the books had<br />
excellent, simple illustrations of the stories <strong>and</strong> subjects being taught, although they<br />
are very outdated by today's st<strong>and</strong>ards. Nonetheless, Airl seemed to underst<strong>and</strong> <strong>and</strong><br />
absorb every letter, sound, syllable <strong>and</strong> meaning as we progressed. We continued<br />
this process for 14 hours a day for 3 consecutive days without interruption, except<br />
for a few meals <strong>and</strong> rest breaks on my part.<br />
Airl did not take breaks for anything. She did not sleep. Instead she remained sitting<br />
in the overstuffed chair in the interview room, reviewing the lessons we had already<br />
covered. When I returned each morning to begin where we'd left off, she had already<br />
memorized the previous lessons <strong>and</strong> was well into the next pages. This pattern<br />
continued to accelerate until it became pointless for me to continue reading to her.<br />
Although Airl did not have a mouth to speak with, she was now able to "think" at me<br />
in English. At the end of these lessons, Airl was able to read <strong>and</strong> study by herself. I<br />
showed her how to use a dictionary to look up new words she encountered. Airl<br />
consulted the dictionary continually after that. From then on my job was acting as a<br />
courier for her, requesting that reference books be brought to her in a steady stream.<br />
Next, Mr. Newble brought in a set of the Encyclopedia Britannica. 42 (Footnote)<br />
Airl especially enjoyed this because it had a lot of pictures. After that, she requested<br />
many more picture books <strong>and</strong> reference books with photographs <strong>and</strong> drawings<br />
because it was much easier to underst<strong>and</strong> the meaning if she could see a picture of<br />
the thing she was studying.<br />
Over the next six days books were brought in from libraries all over the country, I<br />
presume, because it wasn't more than a few more days before she had read through<br />
several hundred of them! She studied every subject I could imagine, <strong>and</strong> many other<br />
very technical things I never wanted to know anything about, like astronomy,<br />
metallurgy, engineering, mathematics, various technical manuals, <strong>and</strong> so forth.<br />
Later she began to read fiction books, novels, poetry <strong>and</strong> the classics of literature.<br />
Airl also asked to read a great many books on subjects in the humanities, especially<br />
history. I think she must had read at least 50 books about human history <strong>and</strong><br />
archaeology. Of course, I made sure that she received a copy of the Holy Bible also,<br />
which she read from cover to cover without comment or questions.<br />
Although I continued to stay with Airl for 12 to 14 hours each day, most of that time<br />
during the following week had been spent without much communication between us,<br />
except for an occasional question she asked me. <strong>The</strong> questions were usually meant<br />
to give her a sense of context or to clarify something in the books she was reading.<br />
Oddly, Airl told me that her favorite books are "Alice's Adventures in Wonderl<strong>and</strong>"<br />
46
43 (Footnote), "Don Quixote de la Mancha" 44 (Footnote) <strong>and</strong> "One Thous<strong>and</strong> <strong>and</strong> One<br />
Nights" 45 (Footnote). She said the authors of these stories showed that it is more<br />
important to have great spirit <strong>and</strong> imagination than great skill or power.<br />
I could not answer a lot of her questions, so I consulted with the people in the outer<br />
room for answers. Most of these had to do with technical <strong>and</strong> scientific things. A<br />
few of her questions were about the humanities. <strong>The</strong> depth of complex<br />
underst<strong>and</strong>ing <strong>and</strong> subtlety of her questions showed that she had a very penetrating<br />
intellect.<br />
Personally, I think she had already known a lot more about the culture <strong>and</strong> history of<br />
<strong>Earth</strong> than she was willing to admit when we started. I would soon discover how<br />
much more."<br />

My Education Begins<br />
(MATILDA O'DONNELL MACELROY PERSONAL NOTE)<br />
"By the 15th day after "rescuing" Airl from the crash site, I was able to communicate<br />
fluidly <strong>and</strong> effortlessly with her in English. She had absorbed so much written<br />
material by this time that her academic education far exceeded my own. Although I<br />
graduated from high school in Los Angeles in 1940 <strong>and</strong> attended college for four<br />
years of premedical <strong>and</strong> nursing training, the variety of my own reading had been<br />
fairly limited.<br />
I had not studied most of the subjects to which Airl had now been exposed,<br />
especially considering her acute underst<strong>and</strong>ing, very intense study habits <strong>and</strong> a<br />
nearly photographic memory! She was able to recall long passages from books she<br />
read. She was especially fond of sections of her favorite stories from classic<br />
literature like <strong>The</strong> Adventures of Huckleberry Finn 46 (Footnote), tales from<br />
Gulliver's Travels 47 (Footnote) <strong>and</strong> Peter Pan 48 (Footnote) <strong>and</strong> <strong>The</strong> Legend of Sleepy<br />
Hollow 49 (Footnote).<br />
By this time Airl had become the teacher, <strong>and</strong> I was the student. I was about to learn<br />
what men of <strong>Earth</strong> do not know <strong>and</strong> have no way of knowing!<br />
<strong>The</strong> throng of scientists <strong>and</strong> agents who observed us through the one-way glass of<br />
our interview room, whom Airl <strong>and</strong> I now referred to as "the gallery", were growing<br />
increasingly impatient to ask her questions. But Airl continued to refuse to allow<br />
any questions to be asked of her by anyone other than myself, even vicariously<br />
through me as an interpreter, or in writing.<br />
On the afternoon of the 16th day Airl <strong>and</strong> I sat next to each other as she read. She<br />
closed the last page of a book she was reading <strong>and</strong> placed it aside. I was about to<br />
h<strong>and</strong> her the next book from a large pile waiting to be read, when she turned <strong>and</strong> said<br />
or "thought" to me, "I am ready to speak now". At first I was a little confused by the<br />
remark. I gestured for her to continue <strong>and</strong> she began to teach me my first lesson."<br />

SUBJECT: <strong>ALIEN</strong> <strong>INTERVIEW</strong>, 24. 7. 1947, 1st Session<br />
"What would you like to say, Airl?", I asked.<br />
"I have been a part of the Domain Expeditionary Force in<br />
this sector of space for several thous<strong>and</strong> years.<br />
However, I have not personally had intimate contact with<br />
beings on <strong>Earth</strong> since 5,965 BCE. It is not my primary<br />
function to interact with inhabitants of planets within<br />
<strong>The</strong> Domain. I am an Officer, Pilot <strong>and</strong> Engineer, with<br />
many duties to perform. Nonetheless, although I am<br />
fluent in 347 other languages within <strong>The</strong> Domain, I have<br />
not been exposed to your English language.<br />
<strong>The</strong> last <strong>Earth</strong> language with which I was conversant was<br />
the Sanskrit language of the Vedic Hymns. 50 (Footnote) At<br />
that time I was a member of a mission sent to<br />
investigate the loss of a Domain base located in the<br />
Himalaya Mountains. An entire battalion of officers,<br />
pilots, communications <strong>and</strong> administrative personnel<br />
disappeared <strong>and</strong> the base destroyed.<br />
Several million years ago I was trained <strong>and</strong> served as an<br />
Investigation, Data Evaluation <strong>and</strong> Program Development<br />
Officer for <strong>The</strong> Domain. Because I was experienced in<br />
that technology, I was sent to <strong>Earth</strong> as part of the<br />
search team. One of my duties involved interrogation of<br />
the human population that inhabited the adjoining area<br />
at that time. 51 (Footnote) Many of the people in that region<br />
reported sighting "vimanas" or space craft in the area. 52<br />
(Footnote)<br />
Following the logical extension of evidence, testimony,<br />
observation, as well as the absence of certain evidence,<br />
I led my team to the discovery that there were still<br />
"Old Empire" ships <strong>and</strong> well-hidden "Old Empire"<br />
installations in this solar system of which we had been<br />
completely unaware.<br />
49
You <strong>and</strong> I were unable to communicate in your language<br />
because I, personally, have not been exposed to your<br />
language. However, now that I have scanned the books <strong>and</strong><br />
material you provided me this data has been relayed to<br />
our space station in this region <strong>and</strong> processed by our<br />
communications officer through our computers. It has<br />
been translated into my own language <strong>and</strong> relayed back to<br />
me in a context that I can think with. I have also<br />
received additional information from the files stored in<br />
our computers about the English language <strong>and</strong> Domain<br />
records concerning <strong>Earth</strong> civilization." 53 (Footnote)<br />
"Now I am prepared to give you certain information that<br />
I feel will be of great value to you. I will tell you<br />
the truth. Although truth is relative to all other<br />
truth, I wish to share with you as honestly <strong>and</strong><br />
accurately as possible, truth as I see it, within the<br />
boundaries of my integrity to myself, to my race <strong>and</strong><br />
without violating my obligations to the organization I<br />
serve <strong>and</strong> have sworn to uphold <strong>and</strong> protect".<br />
"OK", I thought. "Will you answer questions from the<br />
gallery now?"<br />
"No. I will not answer questions. I will provide<br />
information to you that I think will be beneficial to<br />
the well-being of the immortal spiritual beings who<br />
comprise humanity, <strong>and</strong> that will foster the survival of<br />
all the myriad life forms <strong>and</strong> the environment of <strong>Earth</strong>,<br />
as it is a part of my mission to ensure the preservation<br />
of <strong>Earth</strong>.<br />
"Personally, it is my conviction that all sentient<br />
beings are immortal spiritual beings. This includes<br />
human beings. For the sake of accuracy <strong>and</strong> simplicity I<br />
will use a made-up word: "IS-BE". Because the primary<br />
nature of an immortal being is that they live in a<br />
timeless state of "is", <strong>and</strong> the only reason for their<br />
existence is that they decide to "be".<br />
No matter how lowly their station in a society, every<br />
IS-BE deserves the respect <strong>and</strong> treatment that I myself<br />
would like to receive from others. Each person on <strong>Earth</strong><br />
continues to be an IS-BE whether they are aware of the<br />
fact or not."<br />
50
(MATILDA O'DONNELL MACELROY PERSONAL NOTE)<br />
(I will never forget this conversation. Her tone was very matter-of-fact <strong>and</strong><br />
emotionless. However, for the first time, I sensed the presence of a warm <strong>and</strong> real<br />
"personality" in Airl. Her reference to "immortal spiritual beings" struck me like a<br />
flash of light in a dark room. I had never before considered that a human being<br />
could be an immortal being.<br />
I thought that status or power was reserved solely for <strong>The</strong> Father, <strong>The</strong> Son, <strong>and</strong> <strong>The</strong><br />
Holy Ghost. And, because I am a devout Catholic <strong>and</strong> subject to the word of <strong>The</strong><br />
Lord Jesus, <strong>and</strong> <strong>The</strong> Holy Father, I have never thought of a woman as an immortal<br />
spiritual being either -- not even the Holy Mother Mary. Yet, when Airl thought<br />
that thought, I became vividly aware for the very first time that she, personally, was<br />
an immortal spiritual being, <strong>and</strong> so are we all!<br />
Airl said that she sensed that I was confused about the idea. She said she would<br />
demonstrate to me that I am also an immortal spiritual being. She said, "Be above<br />
your body!" Immediately, I realized that I was "outside" of my body, looking down<br />
from the ceiling at the top of my body's head! 54 (Footnote) I was also able to see the<br />
room around me, including Airl's body sitting in the chair next to my own body.<br />
After a moment, I realized the simple, but shocking, reality, that "I" am not a body.<br />
In that moment a black veil lifted <strong>and</strong> for the first time in my life, <strong>and</strong> for a very long<br />
time into the past, I realized that I am not "my soul", but that "I" am "me" -- a<br />
spiritual being. This was an unexplainable epiphany, but one that fills me with a joy<br />
<strong>and</strong> relief I cannot recall having experienced ever before. As for the "immortal" part,<br />
I do not underst<strong>and</strong> her meaning, as I have always been taught that I am not immortal<br />
-- a spirit, perhaps -- but certainly not immortal!<br />
After a moment -- I'm not sure how long -- Airl asked me if I had a better<br />
underst<strong>and</strong>ing of the idea. Suddenly, I was back inside my body again, <strong>and</strong> said out<br />
loud, "Yes! I see what you mean!".<br />
I was so taken aback by the experience that I had to get up from my chair <strong>and</strong> walk<br />
around the room for a few minutes. I made an excuse that I needed to get a drink of<br />
water, <strong>and</strong> go to the restroom, which I did. In the restroom I looked at my "self" in<br />
the mirror. I used the toilet, refreshed my make-up, <strong>and</strong> straightened my uniform.<br />
After 10 or 15 minutes I felt more "normal" again <strong>and</strong> returned to the interview<br />
room.<br />
After that I felt as though I was no longer just an interpreter for Airl. I felt as though<br />
I was a "kindred spirit". I felt like I was safe, at home, with a trusted friend or<br />
family member, as close as any I have ever had. Airl sensed <strong>and</strong> understood my<br />
confusion about the concept of "personal immortality". She began her first "lesson"<br />
with me by explaining this to me."<br />
51
(OFFICIAL TRANSCRIPT OF <strong>INTERVIEW</strong> CONTINUED)<br />
"Airl told me her reasons for coming to <strong>Earth</strong> <strong>and</strong> for<br />
being in the area of the 509th Bomber Squadron. She was<br />
sent by her superior officers to investigate the<br />
explosions of nuclear weapons which have been tested in<br />
New Mexico. Her superiors ordered her to gather<br />
information from the atmosphere that could be used to<br />
determine the extent of radiation <strong>and</strong> potential harm<br />
this might cause to the environment. During her mission,<br />
the space craft was struck by a lighting 55 (Footnote), which<br />
caused her to lose control <strong>and</strong> crash.<br />
<strong>The</strong> space craft is operated by IS-BEs who use "doll<br />
bodies" in much the same way that an actor wears a mask<br />
<strong>and</strong> costume. It is a like a mechanical tool through<br />
which to operate in the physical world. She, as well as<br />
all of the other IS-BEs of the officer class <strong>and</strong> their<br />
superiors, inhabit these "doll bodies" when they are on<br />
duty in space. When they are not on duty, they "leave"<br />
the body <strong>and</strong> operate, think, communicate, travel, <strong>and</strong><br />
exist without the use of a body.<br />
<strong>The</strong> bodies are constructed of synthetic materials,<br />
including a very sensitive electrical nervous system, to<br />
which each IS-BE adjusts themselves or "tune in" to an<br />
electronic wavelength 56 (Footnote) that is matched uniquely<br />
to the wavelength or frequency emitted by each IS-BE.<br />
Each IS-BE is capable of creating a unique wave<br />
frequency which identifies them, much like a radio<br />
signal frequency. This serves, in part, as<br />
identification like a finger print. <strong>The</strong> doll body acts<br />
like a radio receiver for the IS-BE. No two frequencies<br />
or doll bodies are exactly the same.<br />
<strong>The</strong> bodies of each IS-BE crew member are likewise tuned<br />
into <strong>and</strong> connected to the "nervous system" built into<br />
the space craft. <strong>The</strong> space craft is built in much the<br />
same way as the doll body. It is adjusted specifically<br />
to the frequency of each IS-BE crew member. <strong>The</strong>refore,<br />
the craft can be operated by the "thoughts" or energy<br />
emitted by the IS-BE. It is really a very simple,<br />
direct control system. So, there are no complicated<br />
controls or navigation equipment on board the space<br />
craft. <strong>The</strong>y operate as an extension of the IS-BE.<br />
52
When the lightning bolt struck the space craft this<br />
caused a short circuit <strong>and</strong> consequently "disconnected"<br />
them from the control of the ship momentarily which<br />
resulted in the crash.<br />
Airl was, <strong>and</strong> still is, an officer, pilot <strong>and</strong> engineer<br />
in an expeditionary force which is part of a space opera<br />
57 (Footnote) civilization which refers to itself as "<strong>The</strong><br />
Domain". This civilization controls a vast number of<br />
galaxies, stars, planets, moons <strong>and</strong> asteroids throughout<br />
an area of space that is approximately one-fourth of the<br />
entire physical universe! <strong>The</strong> continuing mission of her<br />
organization is to "Secure, control <strong>and</strong> exp<strong>and</strong> the<br />
territory <strong>and</strong> resources of <strong>The</strong> Domain".<br />
Airl pointed out that their own activities were very<br />
similar in many ways to the European explorers who<br />
"discovered" <strong>and</strong> "claimed" the New World for <strong>The</strong> Holy<br />
Father, <strong>The</strong> Pope <strong>and</strong> for the kings of Spain, Portugal<br />
<strong>and</strong> later, Holl<strong>and</strong>, Engl<strong>and</strong>, France <strong>and</strong> so forth. Europe<br />
benefited from the property "acquired" from the native<br />
inhabitants. However, the native inhabitants were never<br />
consulted with or asked for their permission to become a<br />
part of the "domain" of European nations <strong>and</strong> the<br />
soldiers <strong>and</strong> priests they sent to acquire territory <strong>and</strong><br />
wealth in order to advance their interests.<br />
Airl said she read in a history book that the Spanish<br />
king regretted the brutal treatment of the native<br />
inhabitants by his soldiers. He feared retribution from<br />
the gods he worshipped, as described in the various<br />
testaments of the Bible. He asked the Pope to prepare a<br />
statement called "<strong>The</strong> Requirement" 58 (Footnote) which was<br />
supposed to be read to each of the newly encountered<br />
native inhabitants.<br />
<strong>The</strong> king hoped that the statement, whether it was<br />
accepted or rejected by the natives, would absolve the<br />
King of all responsibility for the resulting slaughter<br />
<strong>and</strong> enslavement of these people. He used this statement<br />
as justification to confiscate their l<strong>and</strong>s <strong>and</strong><br />
possessions by his soldiers <strong>and</strong> the Pope's priests.<br />
Apparently, the Pope, personally, did not have any<br />
feelings of guilt or responsibility in the matter.<br />
Airl thought that such actions were those of a coward<br />
<strong>and</strong> that it is no surprise that the territory of Spain<br />
53
was diminished so quickly. Only a few years later the<br />
king was dead <strong>and</strong> his empire had been assimilated by<br />
other nations.<br />
Airl said that this sort of behavior does not occur in<br />
<strong>The</strong> Domain. <strong>The</strong>ir leaders assume full responsibility<br />
for the actions of <strong>The</strong> Domain, <strong>and</strong> would not denigrate<br />
themselves in this fashion. Nor do they fear any gods<br />
or have any regret for their actions. This idea<br />
reinforces my earlier suggestion that Airl <strong>and</strong> her<br />
people are probably atheists.<br />
In the case of the acquisition of <strong>Earth</strong> by <strong>The</strong> Domain,<br />
the rulers of <strong>The</strong> Domain have chosen not to openly<br />
reveal this intention to the "native inhabitants" of<br />
<strong>Earth</strong> until a later time when it may, or may not, suit<br />
their interests to reveal themselves. For the present<br />
time, it is not strategically necessary to make the<br />
presence of <strong>The</strong> Domain Expeditionary Force known to<br />
Mankind. In fact, until now, it has been very<br />
aggressively hidden, for reasons that will be revealed<br />
later.<br />
<strong>The</strong> asteroid belt near <strong>Earth</strong> is a very small, but<br />
important location for <strong>The</strong> Domain in this part of space.<br />
Actually, some of the objects in our solar system are<br />
very valuable for use as low-gravity "space stations".<br />
<strong>The</strong>y are interested primarily in the low gravity<br />
satellites in this solar system which consists mainly of<br />
the side of the moon facing away from <strong>Earth</strong> 59 (Footnote) <strong>and</strong><br />
the asteroid belt, which was a planet that was destroyed<br />
billions of years ago, <strong>and</strong> to a lesser degree, Mars <strong>and</strong><br />
Venus. Doom structures synthesized from gypsum 60 (Footnote)<br />
or underground bases covered by electromagnetic force<br />
screens 61 (Footnote) are easily constructed to house the<br />
Domain forces.<br />
Once an area of space is acquired by <strong>The</strong> Domain <strong>and</strong><br />
becomes a part of the territory under its control, it is<br />
treated as the "property" of <strong>The</strong> Domain. <strong>The</strong> space<br />
station near the planet <strong>Earth</strong> is important only because<br />
it lay along a path of <strong>The</strong> Domain expansion route toward<br />
the center of the Milky Way galaxy <strong>and</strong> beyond. Of<br />
course, everyone in <strong>The</strong> Domain is aware of this --<br />
except for the people of <strong>Earth</strong>."<br />

Chapter Seven<br />
A Lesson In Ancient History<br />
(MATILDA O'DONNELL MACELROY PERSONAL NOTE)<br />
"My instruction with Airl continued through the night until dawn of the next<br />
morning. I must say, that I was fascinated, skeptical, shocked, alarmed, dismayed<br />
<strong>and</strong> disgruntled by the "lesson" I was getting from Airl. I could never have imagined<br />
any of what she was telling me -- not even in my wildest dreams <strong>and</strong> nightmares!<br />
<strong>The</strong> next afternoon, after I had slept, showered <strong>and</strong> eaten, I was debriefed about my<br />
interview session the previous evening by members of the gallery who recorded my<br />
account of what Airl told me. <strong>The</strong>re was a stenographer present for this session, as<br />
usual, to whom I debriefed after each interview, <strong>and</strong> there were also 6 or 7 men who<br />
asked for clarification of my statements. As always, there was constant pressure<br />
applied to me to use my influence with Airl to persuade her to answer specific<br />
questions prompted by members of the gallery. I did my best to reassure everyone<br />
that I would give my very best efforts to do so.<br />
Nevertheless, only three things happened every day thereafter:<br />
1) Airl resolutely refused to answer any questions that she sensed had been posed by<br />
or suggested to me by the gallery.<br />
2) Airl continued to "instruct" me in subject matter of her own choice.<br />
3) Every evening after my interview with, or instruction from Airl, she would give<br />
me a new list of subject matter about which she wanted more information. Each<br />
evening I presented this list to the gallery. <strong>The</strong> next day Airl received a large stack<br />
of books, magazines, articles, <strong>and</strong> so forth. She would study all of these during the<br />
night while I slept. This pattern repeated every day during the remainder of the time<br />
I spent with her.<br />
<strong>The</strong> subject matter of my next interview, or lesson, from Airl continued with a brief<br />
history of <strong>Earth</strong>, our solar system <strong>and</strong> nearby space, from the perspective of <strong>The</strong><br />
Domain."<br />

SUBJECT: <strong>ALIEN</strong> <strong>INTERVIEW</strong>, 25. 7. 1947, 1st Session<br />
"Before you can underst<strong>and</strong> the subject of history, you<br />
must first underst<strong>and</strong> the subject of time. Time is<br />
simply an arbitrary measurement of the motion of objects<br />
through space.<br />
Space is not linear. Space is determined by the point<br />
of view of an IS-BE when viewing a object. <strong>The</strong> distance<br />
between an IS-BE <strong>and</strong> the object being viewed is called<br />
"space".<br />
Objects, or energy masses, in space do not necessarily<br />
move in a linear fashion. In this universe, objects<br />
tend to move r<strong>and</strong>omly or in a curving or cyclical<br />
pattern, or as determined by agreed upon rules.<br />
History is not only a linear record of events, as many<br />
authors of <strong>Earth</strong> history books imply, because it is not<br />
a string that can be stretched out <strong>and</strong> marked like a<br />
measuring tool. History is a subjective observation of<br />
the movement of objects through space, recorded from the<br />
point of view of a survivor, rather than of those who<br />
succumbed. Events occur interactively <strong>and</strong> concurrently,<br />
just as the biological body has a heart that pumps<br />
blood, while the lungs provide oxygen to the cells,<br />
which reproduce, using energy from the sun <strong>and</strong> chemicals<br />
from plants, at the same time as the liver strains toxic<br />
wastes from the blood, <strong>and</strong> eliminates them through the<br />
bladder <strong>and</strong> the bowels.<br />
All of these interactions are concurrent <strong>and</strong><br />
simultaneous. Although time runs consecutively, events<br />
do not happen in an independent, linear stream. In<br />
order to view <strong>and</strong> underst<strong>and</strong> the history or reality of<br />
the past, one must view all events as part of an<br />
interactive whole. Time can also be sensed as a<br />
vibration which is uniform throughout the entire<br />
physical universe.<br />
56
Airl explained that IS-BEs have been around since before<br />
the beginning of the universe. <strong>The</strong> reason they are<br />
called "immortal", is because a "spirit" is not born <strong>and</strong><br />
cannot die, but exists in a personally postulated<br />
perception of "is - will be". She was careful to explain<br />
that every spirit is not the same. Each is completely<br />
unique in identity, power, awareness <strong>and</strong> ability.<br />
<strong>The</strong> difference between an IS-BE like Airl <strong>and</strong> most of<br />
the IS-BEs inhabiting bodies on <strong>Earth</strong>, is that Airl can<br />
enter <strong>and</strong> depart from her "doll" at will. She can<br />
perceive at selective depths through matter. Airl <strong>and</strong><br />
other officers of <strong>The</strong> Domain can communicate<br />
telepathically. Since an IS-BE is not a physical<br />
universe entity it has no location in space or time.<br />
An IS-BE is literally, "immaterial". <strong>The</strong>y can span great<br />
distances of space instantly.<br />
<strong>The</strong>y can experience sensations, more intensely than a<br />
biological body, without the use of physical sensory<br />
mechanisms. An IS-BE can exclude pain from their<br />
perception. Airl can also remember her "identity", so<br />
to speak, all the way back into the dim mists of time,<br />
for trillions of years!<br />
She says that the existing collection of suns in this<br />
immediate vicinity of the universe have been burning for<br />
the last 200 trillion years. <strong>The</strong> age of the physical<br />
universe is nearly infinitely old, but probably at least<br />
four quadrillion 62 (Footnote) years since its earliest<br />
beginnings.<br />
Time is a difficult factor to measure as it depends on<br />
the subjective memory of IS-BEs <strong>and</strong> there has been no<br />
uniform record of events throughout the physical<br />
universe since it began. As on <strong>Earth</strong>, there are many<br />
different time measurement systems, defined by various<br />
cultures, which use cycles of motion, <strong>and</strong> points of<br />
origin to establish age <strong>and</strong> duration. 63 (Footnote)<br />
<strong>The</strong> physical universe itself is formed from the<br />
convergence <strong>and</strong> amalgamation of many other individual<br />
universes 64 (Footnote), each one of which were created by an<br />
IS-BE or group of IS-BEs. <strong>The</strong> collision of these<br />
illusory universes commingled <strong>and</strong> coalesced <strong>and</strong> were<br />
solidified to form a mutually created universe. Because<br />
it is agreed that energy <strong>and</strong> forms can be created, but<br />
57
not destroyed, 65 (Footnote) this creative process has<br />
continued to form an ever-exp<strong>and</strong>ing universe of nearly<br />
infinite physical proportions.<br />
Before the formation of the physical universe there was<br />
a vast period during which universes were not solid, but<br />
wholly illusionary. You might say that the universe was<br />
a universe of magical illusions which were made to<br />
appear <strong>and</strong> vanish at the will of the magician. In every<br />
case, the "magician" was one or more IS-BEs. Many IS-<br />
BEs on <strong>Earth</strong> can still recall vague images from that<br />
period. Tales of magic, sorcery <strong>and</strong> enchantment, fairy<br />
tales <strong>and</strong> mythology speak of such things, 66 (Footnote)<br />
although in very crude terms.<br />
Each IS-BE entered into the physical universe when they<br />
lost their own, "home" universe. That is, when an IS-<br />
BE's "home" universe was overwhelmed by the physical<br />
universe, or when the IS-BE joined with other IS-BEs to<br />
create or conquer the physical universe.<br />
On <strong>Earth</strong>, the ability to determine when an IS-BE entered<br />
the physical universe is difficult for two reasons:<br />
1) the memory of IS-BEs on <strong>Earth</strong> have been erased, <strong>and</strong><br />
2) IS-BEs arrival or invasion into the physical universe<br />
took place at different times, some 60 trillion years<br />
ago, <strong>and</strong> others only 3 trillion. Every once in a short<br />
while, a few million years, an area or planet will be<br />
taken over by another group of IS-BEs entering into the<br />
area.<br />
Sometimes they will capture other IS-BEs as slaves. 67<br />
(Footnote) <strong>The</strong>y will be forced to inhabit bodies to perform<br />
menial, or manual work -- especially mining mineral ores<br />
on heavy-gravity planets, such as <strong>Earth</strong>.<br />
Airl says that she has been a member of <strong>The</strong> Domain<br />
Expeditionary Force for more than 625 million years,<br />
when she became a pilot for a biological survey mission<br />
which included occasional visits to <strong>Earth</strong>. She can<br />
remember her entire career there, <strong>and</strong> for a very long<br />
time before that.<br />
She told me that <strong>Earth</strong> scientists do not have an<br />
accurate measuring system to gauge the age of matter.<br />
<strong>The</strong>y assume that because certain types of materials seem<br />
to deteriorate rather quickly, such as organic or<br />
58
carbon-based matter, that there is a deterioration of<br />
matter. It is not accurate to measure the age of stone,<br />
based on the measurement of the age of wood or bone.<br />
This is a fundamental error. Factually, matter does not<br />
deteriorate. It cannot be destroyed. Matter may be<br />
altered in form, but it is never truly destroyed.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Domain has conducted a periodic survey of the<br />
galaxies in this sector of the universe since it<br />
developed space travel technologies about 80 trillion<br />
years ago. A review of changes in the complexion of<br />
<strong>Earth</strong> reveal that mountain ranges rise <strong>and</strong> fall,<br />
continents change location, the poles of the planet<br />
shift, ice caps come <strong>and</strong> go, oceans appear <strong>and</strong><br />
disappear, rivers, valleys <strong>and</strong> canyons change. In all<br />
cases, the matter is the same. It is always the same<br />
s<strong>and</strong>. Every form <strong>and</strong> substance is made of the same<br />
basic material, which never deteriorates.<br />
(MATILDA O'DONNELL MACELROY PERSONAL NOTE)<br />
("I cannot even begin to imagine how advanced a civilization may have become,<br />
technically, <strong>and</strong> mentally, after trillions of years! Just think of how advanced our<br />

(OFFICIAL TRANSCRIPT OF <strong>INTERVIEW</strong>)<br />
"Airl described the abilities of an IS-BE officer of <strong>The</strong><br />
Domain to me, <strong>and</strong> she demonstrated one to me when she<br />
contacted -- telepathically -- a communications officer<br />
of <strong>The</strong> Domain who is stationed in the asteroid belt.<br />
68 (Footnote)<br />
<strong>The</strong> asteroid belt is composed of thous<strong>and</strong>s of broken up<br />
pieces of a planet that once existed between Mars <strong>and</strong><br />
Jupiter. It serves as a good low-gravity jumping off<br />
point for incoming space craft traveling toward the<br />
center of our galaxy.<br />
She requested that this officer consult information<br />
stored in the "files" of <strong>The</strong> Domain, concerning the<br />
history of <strong>Earth</strong>. She asked the communications officer<br />
to "feed" this information to Airl. <strong>The</strong> communications<br />
officer immediately complied with the request. Based on<br />
59
the information stored in the files of <strong>The</strong> Domain, Airl<br />
was able to give me a brief overview or "history<br />
lesson". This is what Airl told me that <strong>The</strong> Domain had<br />
observed about the history of <strong>Earth</strong>:<br />
She told me that <strong>The</strong> Domain Expeditionary Force first<br />
entered into the Milky Way galaxy very recently -- only<br />
about 10,000 years ago. <strong>The</strong>ir first action was to<br />
conquer the home planets of the "Old Empire" (this is<br />
not the official name, but a nick-name given to the<br />
conquered civilization by <strong>The</strong> Domain Forces) that served<br />
as the seat of central government for this galaxy, <strong>and</strong><br />
other adjoining regions of space. <strong>The</strong>se planets are<br />
located in the stars systems in the tail of the Big<br />
Dipper constellation. 69 (Footnote) She did not mention which<br />
stars, exactly.<br />
About 1,500 years later <strong>The</strong> Domain began the<br />
installation bases for their own forces along the path<br />
of invasion which leads toward the center of this galaxy<br />
<strong>and</strong> beyond. About 8,200 years ago <strong>The</strong> Domain forces set<br />
up a base on <strong>Earth</strong> in the Himalaya Mountains near the<br />
border of modern Pakistan <strong>and</strong> Afghanistan. This was a<br />
base for a battalion of <strong>The</strong> Domain Expeditionary Force,<br />
which included about 3,000 members.<br />
<strong>The</strong>y set up a base under or inside the top of a<br />
mountain. <strong>The</strong> mountain top was drilled into <strong>and</strong> made<br />
hollow to create an area large enough to house the ships<br />
<strong>and</strong> personnel of that force. An electronic illusion of<br />
the mountain top was then created to hide the base by<br />
projecting a false image from inside the mountain<br />
against a "force screen". <strong>The</strong> ships could then enter<br />
<strong>and</strong> exit through the force screen, yet remain unseen by<br />
homo sapiens.<br />
Shortly after they settled there the base was surprised<br />
by an attack from a remnant of the military forces of<br />
the "Old Empire". Unbeknownst to <strong>The</strong> Domain, a hidden,<br />
underground base on Mars, operated by the "Old Empire",<br />
had existed for a very long time. <strong>The</strong> Domain base was<br />
wiped out by a military attack from the Mars base <strong>and</strong><br />
the IS-BEs of <strong>The</strong> Domain Expeditionary Force were<br />
captured.<br />
You can imagine that <strong>The</strong> Domain was very upset about<br />
losing such a large force of officers <strong>and</strong> crew, so they<br />
60
sent other crews to <strong>Earth</strong> to look for them. Those crews<br />
were also attacked. <strong>The</strong> captured IS-BEs from <strong>The</strong> Domain<br />
Forces were h<strong>and</strong>led in the same fashion as all other IS-<br />
BEs who have been sent to <strong>Earth</strong>. <strong>The</strong>y were each given<br />
amnesia, had their memories replaced with false pictures<br />
<strong>and</strong> hypnotic comm<strong>and</strong>s <strong>and</strong> sent to <strong>Earth</strong> to inhabit<br />
biological bodies. <strong>The</strong>y are still a part of the human<br />
population today.<br />
After a very persistent <strong>and</strong> extensive investigation into<br />
the loss of their crews, <strong>The</strong> Domain discovered that "Old<br />
Empire" has been operating a very extensive, <strong>and</strong> very<br />
carefully hidden, base of operations in this part of the<br />
galaxy for millions of years. No one knows exactly how<br />
long. Eventually, the space craft of the "Old Empire"<br />
forces <strong>and</strong> <strong>The</strong> Domain engaged each other in open combat<br />
in the space of the solar system.<br />
According to Airl, there was a running battle between<br />
the "Old Empire" forces <strong>and</strong> <strong>The</strong> Domain until about 1235<br />
AD, when <strong>The</strong> Domain forces finally destroyed the last of<br />
the space craft of the "Old Empire" force in this area.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Domain Expeditionary Force lost many of its own<br />
ships in this area during that time also.<br />
About 1,000 years later the "Old Empire" base was<br />
discovered by accident in the spring of 1914 AD. <strong>The</strong><br />
discovery was made when the body of the Archduke of<br />
Austria, 70 (Footnote) was "taken over" by an officer of <strong>The</strong><br />
Domain Expeditionary Force. This officer, who was<br />
stationed in the asteroid belt, was sent to <strong>Earth</strong> on a<br />
routine mission to gather reconnaissance.<br />
<strong>The</strong> purpose of this "take over" was to use the body as a<br />
"disguise" through which to infiltrate human society in<br />
order to gather information about current events on<br />
<strong>Earth</strong>. <strong>The</strong> officer, as an IS-BE, having greater power<br />
than the being inhabiting the body of the Archduke,<br />
simply "pushed" the being out <strong>and</strong> took over control of<br />
the body.<br />
However, this officer did not realize how much the<br />
Hapsburgs were hated by feuding factions in the country,<br />
so he was caught off guard when the body of the Archduke<br />
was assassinated by a Bosnian student. <strong>The</strong> officer, or<br />
IS-BE, was suddenly "knocked out" of the body when it<br />
was shot by the assassin. Disoriented, the IS-BE<br />
61
inadvertently penetrated one of the "amnesia force<br />
screens" <strong>and</strong> was captured.<br />
Eventually <strong>The</strong> Domain discovered that a wide area of<br />
space is monitored by an "electronic force field"<br />
71 (Footnote) which controls all of the IS-BEs in this end of<br />
the galaxy, including <strong>Earth</strong>. <strong>The</strong> electronic force<br />
screen is designed to detect IS-BEs <strong>and</strong> prevent them<br />
from leaving the area.<br />
If any IS-BE attempts to penetrate the force screen, it<br />
"captures" them in a kind of "electronic net". <strong>The</strong><br />
result is that the captured IS-BE is subjected to a very<br />
severe "brainwashing" treatment which erases the memory<br />
of the IS-BE. This process uses a tremendous electrical<br />
shock, just like <strong>Earth</strong> psychiatrists use "electric shock<br />
therapy" to erase the memory <strong>and</strong> personality of a<br />
"patient" <strong>and</strong> to make them more "cooperative". 72 (Footnote)<br />
On <strong>Earth</strong> this "therapy" uses only a few hundred volts of<br />
electricity. However, the electrical voltage 73 (Footnote)<br />
used by the "Old Empire" operation against IS-BEs is on<br />
the order of magnitude of billions of volts! This<br />
tremendous shock completely wipes out all the memory of<br />
the IS-BE. <strong>The</strong> memory erasure is not just for one life<br />
or one body. It wipes out the all of the accumulated<br />
experiences of a nearly infinite past, as well as the<br />
identity of the IS-BE!<br />
<strong>The</strong> shock is intended to make it impossible for the IS-<br />
BE to remember who they are, where they came from, their<br />
knowledge or skills, their memory of the past, <strong>and</strong><br />
ability to function as a spiritual entity. <strong>The</strong>y are<br />
overwhelmed into becoming a mindless, robotic nonentity.<br />
After the shock a series of post hypnotic suggestions 74<br />
(Footnote) are used to install false memories, <strong>and</strong> a false<br />
time orientation in each IS-BE. This includes the<br />
comm<strong>and</strong> to "return" to the base after the body dies, so<br />
that the same kind of shock <strong>and</strong> hypnosis can be done<br />
again, <strong>and</strong> again, again -- forever. <strong>The</strong> hypnotic<br />
comm<strong>and</strong> also tells the "patient" to forget to remember.<br />
What <strong>The</strong> Domain learned from the experience of this<br />
officer is that the "Old Empire" has been using <strong>Earth</strong> as<br />
62
a "prison planet" for a very long time -- exactly how<br />
long is unknown -- perhaps millions of years.<br />
So, when the body of the IS-BE dies they depart from the<br />
body. <strong>The</strong>y are detected by the "force screen", they are<br />
captured <strong>and</strong> "ordered" by hypnotic comm<strong>and</strong> to "return<br />
to the light". <strong>The</strong> idea of "heaven" <strong>and</strong> the "afterlife"<br />
are part of the hypnotic suggestion -- a part of the<br />
treachery that makes the whole mechanism work.<br />
After the IS-BE has been shocked <strong>and</strong> hypnotized to erase<br />
the memory of the life just lived, the IS-BE is<br />
immediately "comm<strong>and</strong>ed", hypnotically, to "report" back<br />
to <strong>Earth</strong>, as though they were on a secret mission, to<br />
inhabit a new body. Each IS-BE is told that they have a<br />
special purpose for being on <strong>Earth</strong>. But, of course<br />
there is no purpose for being in a prison -- at least<br />
not for the prisoner.<br />
Any undesirable IS-BEs who are sentenced to <strong>Earth</strong> were<br />
classified as "untouchable" 75 (Footnote) by the "Old Empire".<br />
This included anyone that the "Old Empire" judged to be<br />
criminals who are too vicious to be reformed or subdued,<br />
as well as other criminals such as sexual perverts, or<br />
beings unwilling to do any productive work.<br />
An "untouchable" classification of IS-BEs also includes<br />
a wide variety of "political prisoners" 76 (Footnote). This<br />
includes IS-BEs who are considered to be noncompliant<br />
"free thinkers" or "revolutionaries" who make trouble<br />
for the governments of the various planets of the "Old<br />
Empire". Of course, anyone with a previous military<br />
record against the "Old Empire" is also shipped off to<br />
<strong>Earth</strong>.<br />
A list of "untouchables" include artists, painters,<br />
singers, musicians, writers, actors, <strong>and</strong> performers of<br />
every kind. For this reason <strong>Earth</strong> has more artists per<br />
capita than any other planet in the "Old Empire".<br />
"Untouchables" also include intellectuals, inventors <strong>and</strong><br />
geniuses in almost every field. Since everything the<br />
"Old Empire" considers valuable has long since been<br />
invented or created over the last few trillion years,<br />
they have no further use for such beings. This includes<br />
skilled managers also, which are not needed in a society<br />
of obedient, robotic citizens.<br />
63
Anyone who is not willing or able to submit to mindless<br />
economic, political <strong>and</strong> religious servitude as a taxpaying<br />
worker in the class system of the "Old Empire"<br />
are "untouchable" <strong>and</strong> sentenced to receive memory wipeout<br />
<strong>and</strong> permanent imprisonment on <strong>Earth</strong>.<br />
<strong>The</strong> net result is that an IS-BE is unable to escape<br />
because they can't remember who they are, where they<br />
came from, where they are. <strong>The</strong>y have been hypnotized to<br />
think they are someone, something, sometime, <strong>and</strong><br />
somewhere other than were they really are.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Domain officer who was "assassinated" while in the<br />
body of Archduke of Austria was, likewise, captured by<br />
the "Old Empire" force. Because this particular officer<br />
was a high powered IS-BE, compared to most, he was taken<br />
away to a secret "Old Empire" base under the surface of<br />
the planet Mars. <strong>The</strong>y put him into a special electronic<br />
prison cell <strong>and</strong> held him there.<br />
Fortunately, this Domain officer was able to escape from<br />
the underground base after 27 years in captivity. When<br />
he escaped from the "Old Empire" base, he returned<br />
immediately to his own base in the asteroid belt. His<br />
comm<strong>and</strong>ing officer ordered that a battle cruiser be<br />
dispatched 77 (Footnote) to the coordinates of the base,<br />
provided by this officer, <strong>and</strong> to destroy that base<br />
completely. This "Old Empire" base was located a few<br />
hundred miles north of the equator on Mars in the<br />
Cydonia region. 78 (Footnote)<br />
Although the military base of the "Old Empire" was<br />
destroyed, unfortunately, much of the vast machinery of<br />
the IS-BE force screens, the electroshock / amnesia /<br />
hypnosis machinery continues to function in other<br />
undiscovered locations right up to the present moment.<br />
<strong>The</strong> main base or control center for this "mind control<br />
prison" 79 (Footnote) operation has never been found. So, the<br />
influences of this base, or bases, are still in effect.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Domain has observed that since the "Old Empire"<br />
space forces were destroyed there is no one left to<br />
actively prevent other planetary systems from bringing<br />
their own "untouchable" IS-BEs to <strong>Earth</strong> from all over<br />
this galaxy, <strong>and</strong> from other galaxies nearby. <strong>The</strong>refore,<br />
<strong>Earth</strong> has become a universal dumping ground for this<br />
entire region of space.<br />
64
This, in part, explains the very unusual mix of races,<br />
cultures, languages, moral codes, religious <strong>and</strong><br />
political influences among the IS-BE population on<br />
<strong>Earth</strong>. <strong>The</strong> number <strong>and</strong> variety of heterogeneous<br />
societies on <strong>Earth</strong> are extremely unusual on a normal<br />
planet. Most "Sun Type 12, Class 7" planets are<br />
inhabited by only one humanoid body type or race, if<br />
any.<br />
In addition, most of the ancient civilizations of <strong>Earth</strong>,<br />
<strong>and</strong> many of the events of <strong>Earth</strong> have been heavily<br />
influenced by the hidden, hypnotic operation of the "Old<br />
Empire" base. So far, no one has figured out exactly<br />
where <strong>and</strong> how this operation is run, or by whom because<br />
it is so heavily protected by screens <strong>and</strong> traps.<br />
Furthermore, there has been no operation undertaken to<br />
seek out, discover <strong>and</strong> destroy the vast <strong>and</strong> ancient<br />
network of electronics machinery that create the IS-BE<br />
force screens at this end of the galaxy. Until this has<br />
been done, we are not able to prevent or interrupt the<br />
electric shock operation, hypnosis <strong>and</strong> remote thought<br />
control 80 (Footnote) of the "Old Empire" prison planet.<br />
Of course all of the crew members of <strong>The</strong> Domain<br />
Expeditionary Force now remain aware of this phenomena<br />
at all times while operating in this solar system space<br />
so as to prevent detection <strong>and</strong> the capture by "Old<br />
Empire" traps."<br />

A Lesson In Recent History<br />
(MATILDA O'DONNELL MACELROY PERSONAL NOTE)<br />
"This interview taught me a history lesson I will never read in any text book written<br />
on <strong>Earth</strong>! <strong>The</strong> Domain has a much different view of events than we do."<br />

TOP SECRET<br />
Official Transcript of the U.S. Army Air Force<br />
Roswell Army Air Field, 509th Bomb Group<br />
SUBJECT: <strong>ALIEN</strong> <strong>INTERVIEW</strong>, 26. 7. 1947, 1st Session<br />
"<strong>The</strong> Domain Expeditionary Force has observed a<br />
resurgence in science <strong>and</strong> culture of the Western world<br />
since 1150 AD when the remaining remnants of the space<br />
fleet of the "Old Empire" in this solar system were<br />
destroyed. <strong>The</strong> influence of the remote control 81 (Footnote)<br />
hypnosis operation diminished slightly after that time,<br />
but still remains largely in force.<br />
Apparently a small amount of damage was done to the "Old<br />
Empire" remote mind control 82 (Footnote) operation which<br />
resulted in a small decrease in the power of this<br />
mechanism. As a result, some memory of technologies<br />
that IS-BEs already knew before they came to <strong>Earth</strong><br />
started to be remembered. <strong>The</strong>reafter the oppression of<br />
knowledge that is called the "Dark Ages" 83 (Footnote) in<br />
Europe began to diminish after that time.<br />
Since then knowledge of the basic laws of physics 84<br />
(Footnote) <strong>and</strong> electricity 85 (Footnote) have revolutionized <strong>Earth</strong><br />
culture virtually overnight. <strong>The</strong> ability to remember<br />
technology by many of the geniuses in the IS-BE<br />
population of <strong>Earth</strong> was partially restored, when not so<br />
actively suppressed as it was before 1150 AD. Sir Isaac<br />
Newton, 86 (Footnote) is one of the best examples of this. In<br />
only a few decades he single-h<strong>and</strong>edly reinvented several<br />
66
major <strong>and</strong> fundamental scientific <strong>and</strong> mathematical<br />
disciplines.<br />
<strong>The</strong> men who "remembered" these sciences already knew<br />
them before they were sent to <strong>Earth</strong>. Ordinarily, no one<br />
would ever observe or discover as much about science <strong>and</strong><br />
mathematics in a single life-time, or even in a few<br />
hundred life-times. <strong>The</strong>se subjects have taken<br />
civilizations billions <strong>and</strong> billions of years to create!<br />
IS-BEs on <strong>Earth</strong> have only just begun to remember small<br />
fragments of all the technologies that exist throughout<br />
the universe. <strong>The</strong>oretically, if the amnesia mechanisms<br />
being used against <strong>Earth</strong> could be broken entirely, IS-<br />
BEs would regain all of their memory!<br />
Unfortunately, similar advances have not been seen in<br />
the humanities as the IS-BEs of <strong>Earth</strong> continue to behave<br />
very badly toward each other. This behavior, however,<br />
is heavily influenced by the "hypnotic comm<strong>and</strong>s" given<br />
to each IS-BE between lifetimes. 87 (Footnote)<br />
And, the very unusual combination of "inmates" on <strong>Earth</strong><br />
- criminals, perverts, artists, revolutionaries <strong>and</strong><br />
geniuses - is the cause of a very restive <strong>and</strong> tumultuous<br />
environment. <strong>The</strong> purpose of the prison planet is to<br />
keep IS-BEs on <strong>Earth</strong>, forever. Promoting ignorance,<br />
superstition, <strong>and</strong> war between IS-BEs helps to keep the<br />
prison population crippled <strong>and</strong> trapped behind "the wall"<br />
of electronic force screens.<br />
IS-BEs have been dumped on <strong>Earth</strong> from all over the<br />
galaxy, adjoining galaxies, <strong>and</strong> from planetary systems<br />
all over the "Old Empire", like Sirius, Aldebaron, the<br />
Pleiades, Orion, Draconis, <strong>and</strong> countless others. <strong>The</strong>re<br />
are IS-BEs on <strong>Earth</strong> from unnamed races, civilizations,<br />
cultural backgrounds, <strong>and</strong> planetary environments. Each<br />
of the various IS-BE populations have their own<br />
languages, belief systems, moral values, religious<br />
beliefs, training <strong>and</strong> unknown <strong>and</strong> untold histories.<br />
<strong>The</strong>se IS-BEs are mixed together with earlier inhabitants<br />
of <strong>Earth</strong> who came from another star system more than<br />
400,000 years ago to establish the civilizations of<br />
Atlanta 88 (Footnote) <strong>and</strong> Lemuria 89 (Footnote). Those civilizations<br />
vanished beneath the tidal waves caused by a planetary<br />
"polar shift", 90 (Footnote) many thous<strong>and</strong>s of years before<br />
67
the current "prison" population started to arrive.<br />
Apparently, the IS-BEs from those star systems were the<br />
source of the original, oriental races of <strong>Earth</strong>,<br />
beginning in Australia.<br />
On the other h<strong>and</strong>, the civilizations set up on <strong>Earth</strong> by<br />
the "Old Empire" prison system were very different from<br />
the civilization of the "Old Empire" itself, which is an<br />
electronic space opera, atomic powered conglomeration of<br />
earlier civilizations that were conquered with nuclear<br />
weapons <strong>and</strong> colonized by IS-BEs from another galaxy.<br />
<strong>The</strong> bureaucracy that controlled the former "Old Empire"<br />
was from an ancient space opera society, run by a<br />
totalitarian 91 (Footnote) confederation of planetary<br />
governments, regulated by a brutal social, economic, <strong>and</strong><br />
political hierarchy, 92 (Footnote) with a royal monarch as its<br />
figurehead. 93 (Footnote)<br />
This type of government emerges with regularity on<br />
planets where the citizens ab<strong>and</strong>on personal<br />
responsibility for autonomous, self-regulation. <strong>The</strong>y<br />
frequently lose their freedom to demented IS-BEs who<br />
suffer from an overwhelming paranoia that every other<br />
IS-BE is their enemy who must be controlled or<br />
destroyed. <strong>The</strong>ir closest friends <strong>and</strong> allies, whom they<br />
espouse to love <strong>and</strong> cherish, are literally "loved to<br />
death" by them.<br />
Because such IS-BEs exist, <strong>The</strong> Domain has learned that<br />
freedom must be won <strong>and</strong> maintained through eternal<br />
vigilance <strong>and</strong> the ability to use defensive force to<br />
maintain it. As a result, <strong>The</strong> Domain has already<br />
conquered the governing planet of the "Old Empire". <strong>The</strong><br />
civilization of <strong>The</strong> Domain, although considerably<br />
younger <strong>and</strong> smaller in size, is already more powerful,<br />
better organized, <strong>and</strong> united by a egalitarian esprit de<br />
corps 94 (Footnote) never known in the history of the "Old<br />
Empire".<br />
<strong>The</strong> recently despoiled German totalitarian state on<br />
<strong>Earth</strong> was similar to the "Old Empire", but not nearly as<br />
brutal, <strong>and</strong> about ten thous<strong>and</strong> times less powerful.<br />
Many of the IS-BEs on <strong>Earth</strong> are here because they are<br />
violently opposed to totalitarian government, 95 (Footnote) or<br />
because they were so psychotically vicious that they<br />
could not be controlled by "Old Empire" government.<br />
68
Consequently, the population of <strong>Earth</strong> is<br />
disproportionately comprised of a very high percentage<br />
of such beings. <strong>The</strong> conflicting cultural <strong>and</strong> ethical<br />
moral codes of the IS-BEs on <strong>Earth</strong> is unusual in the<br />
extreme.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Domain conquest of the central "Old Empire" planets<br />
was fought with electronic cannon. 96 (Footnote) <strong>The</strong> citizens<br />
of the planets forming the core of government for the<br />
"Old Empire" are a filthy, degraded, slave society of<br />
mindless, tax-paying workers, who practice cannibalism.<br />
Violent automotive race tracks <strong>and</strong> bloody, Roman circus<br />
type entertainments are their only amusements.<br />
Regardless of any reasonable justification we may have<br />
had for using atomic weapons to vanquish the planets of<br />
the "Old Empire", <strong>The</strong> Domain is careful not to ruin the<br />
resources of those planets by using weapons of crude,<br />
radioactive force.<br />
<strong>The</strong> current U.S. civilization is beginning to mimic some<br />
of the trappings of that civilization, especially in the<br />
design of airplanes, automobiles, ships, trains, <strong>and</strong><br />
telephones. Likewise, buildings in the cities of <strong>Earth</strong><br />
are thought to be "modern" or "futuristic" if their<br />
design resembles the architecture of the "Old Empire".<br />
<strong>The</strong> government of the "Old Empire", before being<br />
supplanted by <strong>The</strong> Domain, was comprised of beings who<br />
possessed a very craven intelligence, very much like the<br />
Axis powers 97 (Footnote) during your recent world war. Those<br />
beings manifested precisely the same behavior as the<br />
galactic government that exiled them to eternal<br />
imprisonment on <strong>Earth</strong>. <strong>The</strong>y were a gruesome reminder of<br />
the ageless maxim that an IS-BE will often manifest the<br />
treatment they have received from others. Kindness<br />
fosters kindness. Cruelty begets cruelty. One must be<br />
able <strong>and</strong> willing to use force, tempered with<br />
intelligence, to prevent harm to the innocent. However,<br />
extraordinary underst<strong>and</strong>ing, self-discipline <strong>and</strong> courage<br />
are required to effectively prevent brutality, without<br />
being overwhelmed by the malice that motivated the<br />
brutality.<br />
Only a demonic, self-serving government would employ a<br />
"logic" or "science" to conceive that an "ultimate<br />
solution" to any problem is to murder <strong>and</strong> permanently<br />
69
erase the memory of every artist, genius, skilled<br />
manager, <strong>and</strong> inventor, <strong>and</strong> cast them into a planetary<br />
prison together with political opponents, killers,<br />
thieves, perverts, <strong>and</strong> disabled beings of an entire<br />
galaxy!<br />
Once the IS-BEs expelled from the "Old Empire" arrived<br />
on <strong>Earth</strong>, they were given amnesia, <strong>and</strong> hypnotically<br />
tricked into thinking that something else had happened<br />
to them. <strong>The</strong> next step was to implant the IS-BEs into<br />
biological bodies on <strong>Earth</strong>. <strong>The</strong> bodies became the human<br />
populations of "false civilizations" which were designed<br />
<strong>and</strong> installed in the minds of IS-BEs to look completely<br />
unlike the "Old Empire".<br />
All of the IS-BEs of India, Egypt, Babylon, Greece,<br />
Rome, <strong>and</strong> Medieval Europe were guided to pattern <strong>and</strong><br />
build the cultural elements of these societies based on<br />
st<strong>and</strong>ard patterns developed by the IS-BEs of many<br />
earlier, similar civilizations on "Sun Type 12, Class 7"<br />
planets that have existed for trillions of years<br />
throughout the universe.<br />
In the earliest times the IS-BEs sent to prison <strong>Earth</strong><br />
lived in India. <strong>The</strong>y gradually spread into Mesopotamia,<br />
Egypt, Mesoamerica, Achaea, Greece, Rome, Medieval<br />
Europe, <strong>and</strong> to the New World. <strong>The</strong>y were hypnotically<br />
"comm<strong>and</strong>ed" to follow the pattern of a given<br />
civilization by the "Old Empire" prison operators. This<br />
is an effective mechanism to disguise the actual time<br />
<strong>and</strong> location from the IS-BEs imprisoned on <strong>Earth</strong>. <strong>The</strong><br />
languages, costumes <strong>and</strong> culture of each false<br />
civilization are intended to reinforce amnesia because<br />
they do not remind the IS-BEs on <strong>Earth</strong> of the original<br />
"Old Empire" planets from which they were deported.<br />
On the very far back-track of time these types of<br />
civilizations tended to repeat themselves over <strong>and</strong> over<br />
because the IS-BEs who created them become familiar with<br />
certain patterns <strong>and</strong> styles, <strong>and</strong> stayed with them. It<br />
is a lot of work to invent an entire civilization,<br />
complete with culture, architecture, language, customs,<br />
mathematics, moral values, <strong>and</strong> so forth. It is much<br />
easier to replicate a copy based on a familiar <strong>and</strong><br />
successful pattern.<br />
70
A "Sun Type 12, Class 7" planet is the designation given<br />
to a planet inhabited by carbon-oxygen based life forms.<br />
<strong>The</strong> class of the planet is based on the size <strong>and</strong><br />
radiation intensity of the star, the distance of the<br />
planetary orbit from the star, <strong>and</strong> the size, density,<br />
gravity, <strong>and</strong> chemical composition of the planet.<br />
Likewise, flora <strong>and</strong> fauna are designated <strong>and</strong> identified<br />
according to the star type <strong>and</strong> class of planet they<br />
inhabit.<br />
On the average, the percentage of planets in the<br />
physical universe with a breathable atmosphere is<br />
relatively small. Most planets do not have an<br />
atmosphere upon which life-forms "feed", as on <strong>Earth</strong>,<br />
where the chemical composition of the atmosphere<br />
provides nutrition to plants, <strong>and</strong> other organisms, which<br />
in turn support other life forms.<br />
When the Domain Force brought the Vedic Hymns 98 (Footnote) to<br />
the Himalayas region 8,200 years ago, some human<br />
societies already existed. <strong>The</strong> Aryan people invaded <strong>and</strong><br />
conquered India 99 (Footnote) , bringing the Vedic Hymns 100<br />
(Footnote) to the area.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Vedas were learned by them, memorized <strong>and</strong> carried<br />
forward verbally for 7,000 years before being committed<br />
to written form. During that span of time one of the<br />
officers of <strong>The</strong> Domain Expeditionary Force was<br />
incarnated on <strong>Earth</strong> as "Vishnu" 101 (Footnote). He is<br />
described many times in the Rig-Veda. He is still<br />
considered to be a god by the Hindus. Vishnu fought in<br />
the religious wars against the "Old Empire" forces. He<br />
is a very able <strong>and</strong> aggressive IS-BE as well as a highly<br />
effective officer, who has since been reassigned to<br />
other duties in <strong>The</strong> Domain.<br />
This entire episode was orchestrated as an attack <strong>and</strong><br />
revolt against the Egyptian pantheon installed by "Old<br />
Empire" administrators. <strong>The</strong> conflict was intended to<br />
help free humankind from implanted elements of the false<br />
civilization that focused attention on many "gods" <strong>and</strong><br />
superstitious ritual worship dem<strong>and</strong>ed by the priests who<br />
"managed" them. It is all part of the mental<br />
manipulation by the "Old Empire" to hide their criminal<br />
actions against the IS-BEs on <strong>Earth</strong>.<br />
71
A priesthood, or prison guards, were used to help<br />
reinforce the idea that an individual, is only a<br />
biological body, <strong>and</strong> is not an Immortal Spiritual Being.<br />
<strong>The</strong> individual has no identity. <strong>The</strong> individuals have no<br />
past lives. 102 (Footnote) <strong>The</strong> individual has no power. Only<br />
the gods have power. And, the gods are a contrivance of<br />
the priests who intercede between men <strong>and</strong> the gods they<br />
serve. Men are slaves to the dictates of the priests<br />
who threaten eternal spiritual punishment if men do not<br />
obey them.<br />
What else would one expect on a prison planet where all<br />
prisoners have amnesia, <strong>and</strong> the priests themselves are<br />
prisoners? <strong>The</strong> intervention of <strong>The</strong> Domain Force on<br />
<strong>Earth</strong> has not been entirely successful due to the secret<br />
mind-control operation of the "Old Empire" that still<br />
continues to operate.<br />
A battle was waged between the "Old Empire" forces <strong>and</strong><br />
<strong>The</strong> Domain through religious conquest. Between 1500 BCE<br />
<strong>and</strong> about 1200 BCE, <strong>The</strong> Domain Forces attempted to teach<br />
the concept of an individual, Immortal Spiritual Being<br />
to several influential beings on <strong>Earth</strong>.<br />
One such instance resulted in a very tragic<br />
misunderst<strong>and</strong>ing, misinterpretation <strong>and</strong> misapplication<br />
of the concept. <strong>The</strong> idea was perverted <strong>and</strong> applied to<br />
mean that there is only one IS-BE, instead of the truth<br />
that everyone is an IS-BE! Obviously, this was a gross<br />
incomprehension <strong>and</strong> an utter unwillingness to take<br />
responsibility for one's own power.<br />
<strong>The</strong> "Old Empire" priests managed to corrupt the concept<br />
of individual immortality into the idea that there is<br />
only one, all-powerful IS-BE, <strong>and</strong> that no one else is or<br />
is allowed to be an IS-BE. Obviously, this is the work<br />
of the "Old Empire" amnesia operation.<br />
It is easy to teach this altered notion to beings who do<br />
not want to be responsible for their own lives. Slaves<br />
are such beings. As long as one chooses to assign<br />
responsibility for creation, existence <strong>and</strong> personal<br />
accountability for one's own thoughts <strong>and</strong> actions to<br />
others, one is a slave.<br />
As a result, the concept of a single monotheistic "god"<br />
resulted <strong>and</strong> was promoted by many self-proclaimed<br />
72
prophets, such as the Jewish slave leader -- Moses --<br />
103 (Footnote) who grew up in the household of the Pharaoh<br />
Amenhotep III 104 (Footnote) <strong>and</strong> his son, Akhenaten 105 (Footnote)<br />
<strong>and</strong> his wife Nefertiti, 106 (Footnote) as well as his son<br />
Tutankhamen. 107 (Footnote)<br />
<strong>The</strong> attempt to teach certain beings on <strong>Earth</strong> the truth<br />
that they are, themselves, IS-BEs, was part of a plan to<br />
overthrow the fictional, metaphorical, anthropomorphic<br />
panoply of gods created by the "Old Empire" mystery cult<br />
called "<strong>The</strong> Brothers of <strong>The</strong> Serpent" 108 (Footnote) known in<br />
Egypt as the Priests of Amun. 109 (Footnote) <strong>The</strong>y were a very<br />
ancient, secret society within the "Old Empire".<br />
<strong>The</strong> Pharaoh Akhenaten was not a very intelligent being,<br />
<strong>and</strong> was heavily influenced by his personal ambition for<br />
self-glorification. He altered the concept of the<br />
individual spiritual being <strong>and</strong> embodied the concept in<br />
the sun god, Aten. His pitiful existence was soon<br />
ended. He was assassinated by Maya <strong>and</strong> Parennefer, two<br />
of the Priests of Amun, or "Amen", which the Christians<br />
still say, who represented the interests of the "Old<br />
Empire" forces.<br />
<strong>The</strong> idea of "One God" was perpetuated by the Hebrew<br />
leader Moses 110 (Footnote) while he was in Egypt. He left<br />
Egypt with his adopted people, the Jewish slaves. While<br />
they were crossing the desert, Moses was intercepted by<br />
an operative of the "Old Empire" near Mt. Sinai. Moses<br />
was tricked into believing that this operative was "the"<br />
One God through the use of hypnotic comm<strong>and</strong>s, as well as<br />
technical <strong>and</strong> aesthetic tricks which are commonly used<br />
by the "Old Empire" to trap IS-BEs. <strong>The</strong>reafter, the<br />
Jewish slaves, who trusted the word of Moses implicitly,<br />
have worshiped a single god they call "Yaweh". 111 (Footnote).<br />
<strong>The</strong> name "Yaweh" means "anonymous", as the IS-BE who<br />
"worked with" Moses could not use an actual name or<br />
anything that would identify himself, or blow the cover<br />
of the amnesia / prison operation. <strong>The</strong> last thing the<br />
covert amnesia / hypnosis / prison system wants to do is<br />
to reveal themselves openly to the IS-BEs on <strong>Earth</strong>.<br />
<strong>The</strong>y feel that this would restore the inmates memories!<br />
This is the reason that all traces of physical<br />
encounters between operatives of space civilizations <strong>and</strong><br />
73
humans is very carefully hidden, disguised, covered-up,<br />
denied or misdirected.<br />
This "Old Empire" operative contacted Moses on a desert<br />
mountain top <strong>and</strong> delivered the "Ten Hypnotic Comm<strong>and</strong>s"<br />
to him. <strong>The</strong>se comm<strong>and</strong>s are very forcefully worded, <strong>and</strong><br />
compel an IS-BE into utter subservience to the will of<br />
the operator. <strong>The</strong>se hypnotic comm<strong>and</strong>s are still in<br />
effect <strong>and</strong> influence the thought patterns of millions of<br />
IS-BEs thous<strong>and</strong>s of years later!<br />
Incidentally, we later discovered that the so-called<br />
"Yaweh" also wrote, programmed <strong>and</strong> encoded the text of<br />
the Torah, which when it is read literally, or in its<br />
decoded, 112 (Footnote) form, will provide a great deal more<br />
false information to those who read it.<br />
Ultimately, the Vedic Hymns became the source of nearly<br />
all of Eastern the religions <strong>and</strong> were the philosophical<br />
source of the ideas common to Buddha 113 (Footnote), Laozi<br />
114 (Footnote), Zoroaster 115 (Footnote), <strong>and</strong> other philosophers.<br />
<strong>The</strong> civilizing influences of these philosophies<br />
eventually replaced the brutal idolatry of the "Old<br />
Empire" religions <strong>and</strong> were the true genesis of kindness<br />
<strong>and</strong> compassion.<br />
You asked me earlier why <strong>The</strong> Domain, <strong>and</strong> other space<br />
civilizations do not l<strong>and</strong> on <strong>Earth</strong> or make their<br />
presence known. L<strong>and</strong> on <strong>Earth</strong>? Do you think we are<br />
crazy or want to be crazy? It takes a very brave IS-BE<br />
to come down through the atmosphere <strong>and</strong> l<strong>and</strong> on <strong>Earth</strong>,<br />
because this is a prison planet, with a very<br />
uncontrolled, psychotic population. And, no IS-BE is<br />
entirely proof against the risk of entrapment, as with<br />
the members of <strong>The</strong> Domain Expeditionary Force who were<br />
captured in the Himalayas 8,200 years ago.<br />
No one knows what IS-BEs on <strong>Earth</strong> are going to do. We<br />
are not scheduled to invest the resources of <strong>The</strong> Domain<br />
to take total control of all the space surrounding the<br />
area at this time. This will occur in the not-todistant<br />
future -- about 5,000 <strong>Earth</strong> years -- according<br />
to the time schedule of <strong>The</strong> Domain. At this time we do<br />
not prevent transports from other planetary systems or<br />
galaxies from continuing to drop IS-BEs into the amnesia<br />
force screen area. Eventually, this will change.<br />
74
In addition, <strong>Earth</strong>, inherently, is a highly unstable<br />
planet. It is not suitable for settlement or permanent<br />
habitation for any sustainable civilization. This is<br />
part of the reason why it is being used as a prison<br />
planet. No one else would seriously consider living<br />
here for a variety of simple <strong>and</strong> compelling reasons:<br />
1) <strong>The</strong> continental l<strong>and</strong> masses of <strong>Earth</strong> are floating on<br />
a sea of molten lava beneath the surface which causes<br />
the l<strong>and</strong> masses to crack, crumble <strong>and</strong> drift continually.<br />
116 (Footnote)<br />
2) Because of the liquid nature of the core, the planet<br />
is largely volcanic <strong>and</strong> subject to earthquakes <strong>and</strong><br />
volcanic explosions.<br />
3) <strong>The</strong> magnetic poles of the planet shift radically<br />
about once every 20,000 years. 117 (Footnote) This causes a<br />
greater or lesser degree of devastation as a result of<br />
tidal waves, <strong>and</strong> climatic changes.<br />
4) <strong>Earth</strong> is very distant from the center of the galaxy<br />
<strong>and</strong> from any other significant galactic civilization.<br />
This isolation makes it unsuitable for use, except as a<br />
"pit stop" or jumping off point along the way between<br />
galaxies. <strong>The</strong> moon <strong>and</strong> asteroids are far more suitable<br />
for this purpose because they do not have any<br />
significant gravity.<br />
5) <strong>Earth</strong> is a heavy gravity planet, with heavy metallic<br />
soil <strong>and</strong> a dense atmosphere. This makes it treacherous<br />
for navigational purposes. That fact that I am in this<br />
room, as the result of an in flight accident, in spite<br />
of the technology of my craft <strong>and</strong> my extensive expertise<br />
as a pilot, are proof of these facts.<br />
6) <strong>The</strong>re are approximately sixty billion <strong>Earth</strong>-like (Sun<br />
Type 12, Class 7) planets in the Milky Way galaxy alone,<br />
not to mention the vast expanses of <strong>The</strong> Domain, <strong>and</strong> the<br />
territories we will claim in the future. It is<br />
difficult to stretch our resources to do much more than<br />
a periodic reconnaissance of <strong>Earth</strong>. Especially when<br />
there are no immediate advantages to invest resources<br />
here.<br />
7) On <strong>Earth</strong> most beings are not aware that they are IS-<br />
BEs, or that there are spirits of any kind. Many other<br />
75
eings are aware of this, but nearly everyone has a very<br />
limited underst<strong>and</strong>ing of themselves as an IS-BE.<br />
One of the reasons for this is that IS-BEs have been<br />
waging war against each other since the beginning of<br />
time. <strong>The</strong> purpose of these wars have always been to<br />
establish domination by one IS-BE or group of IS-BEs<br />
over another. Since an IS-BE cannot be "killed", the<br />
objective has been to capture <strong>and</strong> immobilize IS-BEs.<br />
This has been done in an nearly unlimited variety of<br />
ways. <strong>The</strong> most basic method to capture <strong>and</strong> immobilize<br />
an IS-BE is through the use of various kinds of "traps".<br />
IS-BE traps have been made <strong>and</strong> put in place by many<br />
invading societies, such as the one that established the<br />
"Old Empire", beginning about sixty-four trillion years<br />
ago. Traps are often set up in the "territory" of the<br />
IS-BEs being attacked. Usually a trap is set with the<br />
electronic wave of "beauty" to attract the interest <strong>and</strong><br />
attention of the IS-BE. When the IS-BE moves toward the<br />
source of the aesthetic wave, such as a beautiful<br />
building or beautiful music, the trap is activated by<br />
the energy put out by the IS-BE.<br />
One of the most common trap mechanism uses the IS-BE's<br />
own thought energy output when the IS-BE tries to attack<br />
or fight back against the trap. <strong>The</strong> trap is activated<br />
<strong>and</strong> energized by the IS-BE's own thought energy. <strong>The</strong><br />
harder the IS-BE fights against the trap, the more it<br />
pulls the IBS toward it <strong>and</strong> keeps them "stuck" in the<br />
trap.<br />
Throughout the entire history of this physical universe,<br />
vast areas of space have been taken over <strong>and</strong> colonized<br />
by IS-BE societies who invade <strong>and</strong> take over new areas of<br />
space in this fashion. In the past, these invasions<br />
have always shared common elements:<br />
1) the overwhelming use of force of arms, usually with<br />
nuclear or electronic weapons.<br />
2) mind control of the IS-BEs in the invaded area<br />
through the use of electroshock, drugs, hypnosis,<br />
erasure of memory <strong>and</strong> the implantation of false memory<br />
or false information intended to subjugate <strong>and</strong> enslave<br />
the local IS-BE population.<br />
76
3) take over of natural resources by the invading IS-<br />
BEs.<br />
4) political, economic <strong>and</strong> social slavery of the local<br />
population.<br />
<strong>The</strong>se activities continue in present time. All of the<br />
IS-BEs on <strong>Earth</strong> have been members of one or more of<br />
these activities in the past, both as an invader, or as<br />
part of the population being invaded. <strong>The</strong>re are no<br />
"saints" in this universe. Very few have avoided or<br />
been exempted from warfare between IS-BEs.<br />
IS-BEs on <strong>Earth</strong> are still the victims of this activity<br />
at this very moment. <strong>The</strong> between-lives amnesia<br />
administered to IS-BEs is one on the mechanisms of an<br />
elaborate system of "Old Empire" IS-BE traps, that<br />
prevent an IS-BE from escaping.<br />
This operation is managed by an illicit, renegade secret<br />
police 118 (Footnote) force of the "Old Empire", using false<br />
provocation operations to disguise their activities<br />
119 (Footnote) in order to prevent detection by their own<br />
government, <strong>The</strong> Domain <strong>and</strong> by the victims of their<br />
activities. <strong>The</strong>y are mind-control methods developed by<br />
government psychiatrists. 120 (Footnote)<br />
<strong>Earth</strong> is a "ghetto" 121 (Footnote) planet. It is the result<br />
of an intergalactic "Holocaust". 122 (Footnote) IS-BEs have<br />
been sentenced to <strong>Earth</strong> either because:<br />
1) <strong>The</strong>y are too viciously insane or perverse to function<br />
as part of any civilization, no matter how degraded or<br />
corrupt.<br />
2) Or, they are a revolutionary threat to the social,<br />
economic <strong>and</strong> political caste system that has been so<br />
carefully built <strong>and</strong> brutally enforced in the "Old<br />
Empire". Biological bodies are specifically designed<br />
<strong>and</strong> designated as the lowest order of entity in the "Old<br />
Empire" caste system. When an IS-BE is sent to <strong>Earth</strong>,<br />
<strong>and</strong> then tricked or coerced into operating in a<br />
biological body, they are actually in a prison, inside a<br />
prison.<br />
3) In an effort to permanently <strong>and</strong> irreversibly rid the<br />
"Old Empire" of such "untouchables", the eternal<br />
77
identity, memory, <strong>and</strong> abilities of every IS-BE is<br />
forcefully erased. This "final solution" 123 (Footnote) was<br />
conceived <strong>and</strong> carried out by the psychopathic criminals<br />
who are controlled by the "Old Empire".<br />
<strong>The</strong> mass extermination of "untouchables" <strong>and</strong> prison<br />
camps created by Germany during World War II were<br />
recently revealed. Likewise, the IS-BEs of <strong>Earth</strong> are the<br />
victims of spiritual eradication <strong>and</strong> eternal slavery<br />
inside frail, biological bodies, inspired by the same<br />
kind of craven hatred in the "Old Empire".<br />
<strong>The</strong> kind <strong>and</strong> creative inmates of <strong>Earth</strong> are continuously<br />
tortured by butchers <strong>and</strong> lunatics who are controlled by<br />
the "Old Empire" prison operators. <strong>The</strong> so-called<br />
"civilizations" of <strong>Earth</strong>, from the age of useless<br />
pyramids to the age of nuclear holocaust, have been a<br />
colossal waste of natural resources, a perverted use of<br />
intelligence, <strong>and</strong> an overt oppression of the spiritual<br />
essence of every single IS-BE on the planet.<br />
If <strong>The</strong> Domain sent ships to every corner of the universe<br />
in search of "Hell", their quest could end on <strong>Earth</strong>.<br />
What greater brutality can be inflicted on anyone than<br />
to erase the spiritual awareness, identity, ability,<br />
<strong>and</strong> memory that is the essence of oneself?<br />
<strong>The</strong> Domain has, as yet, been unable to rescue the 3,000<br />
IS-BEs of the Expeditionary Force Battalion either.<br />
<strong>The</strong>y are forced to inhabit biological bodies on <strong>Earth</strong>.<br />
We have been able to recognize <strong>and</strong> track most of them<br />
for the past 8,000 years. However, our attempts to<br />
communicate with them are usually futile, as they are<br />
unable to remember their true identity.<br />
<strong>The</strong> majority of lost members of <strong>The</strong> Domain force have<br />
followed the general progression of Western civilization<br />
from India, into the Middle East, then to Chaldea, <strong>and</strong><br />
Babylon, into Egypt, through Achaia, Greece, Rome, into<br />
Europe, to the Western Hemisphere, <strong>and</strong> then all around<br />
the world.<br />
<strong>The</strong> members of the lost Battalion <strong>and</strong> many other IS-BEs<br />
on <strong>Earth</strong>, could be valuable citizens of <strong>The</strong> Domain, not<br />
including those who are vicious criminals or perverts.<br />
Unfortunately, there has been no workable method<br />
conceived to emancipate the IS-BEs from <strong>Earth</strong>.<br />
78
<strong>The</strong>refore, as a matter of common logic, as well as the<br />
official policy of <strong>The</strong> Domain, it is safer <strong>and</strong> more<br />
sensible to avoid contact with the IS-BE population of<br />
<strong>Earth</strong> until such time as the proper resources can be<br />
allocated to locate <strong>and</strong> destroy the "Old Empire" force<br />
screen <strong>and</strong> amnesia machinery <strong>and</strong> develop a therapy to<br />
restore the memory of an IS-BE."<br />

(MATILDA O'DONNELL MACELROY PERSONAL NOTE)<br />
"For this interview I took written notes because Airl gave me a lot of dates <strong>and</strong><br />
names that I couldn't possibly remember without writing them down. I didn't usually<br />
take notes, but during this lesson I thought it was important to get the information<br />
exactly as she gave it to me. However, I discovered that my note taking made it<br />
much more difficult for me to focus on receiving the communication from Airl. I<br />
was sometimes so distracted by my own writing that I lost the train of her thought, so<br />
I had to ask her to "repeat" herself several times.<br />
Airl continued to stay in communication with the Communications Officer on the<br />
asteroid belt space station, from which she received much of this information. Since<br />
Airl was an officer / pilot / engineer of <strong>The</strong> Domain, <strong>and</strong> not a historian, she had to<br />
get this information from records of reconnaissance missions conducted by other<br />
officers of <strong>The</strong> Domain Expeditionary Force."<br />

SUBJECT: <strong>ALIEN</strong> <strong>INTERVIEW</strong>, 27. 7. 1947, 1st Session<br />
"<strong>The</strong> actual history of <strong>Earth</strong> is very bizarre. It is so<br />
nonsensical that is it is incredible to anyone on <strong>Earth</strong><br />
who attempts to investigate it. A myriad of vital<br />
information is missing from it. A huge conglomeration<br />
of non sequitur relics <strong>and</strong> mythology has been arbitrarily<br />
introduced into it. <strong>The</strong> volatile nature of the <strong>Earth</strong><br />
itself cyclically covers, drowns, mixes <strong>and</strong> shreds<br />
physical evidence.<br />
<strong>The</strong>se factors, combined with amnesia <strong>and</strong> post-hypnotic<br />
suggestions, false facades <strong>and</strong> covert manipulation make<br />
a reconstruction of the factual origins <strong>and</strong> history of<br />
<strong>Earth</strong> civilizations virtually indecipherable. Any<br />
80
investigator, no matter how brilliant, is doomed to<br />
wallow in a quagmire of inconclusive assumptions,<br />
unworkable hypotheses, <strong>and</strong> perpetual mystery.<br />
Since <strong>The</strong> Domain does not suffer these afflictions,<br />
having the advantage of memory, longevity <strong>and</strong> an<br />
exterior point of view, I will add some clarification to<br />
your fragmentary knowledge of the history of <strong>Earth</strong>.<br />
<strong>The</strong>se are some of the dates <strong>and</strong> events that are not<br />
mentioned in <strong>Earth</strong> history textbooks. <strong>The</strong>se dates are<br />
significant because they provide some information<br />
concerning the influences of the "Old Empire" <strong>and</strong> of <strong>The</strong><br />
Domain on <strong>Earth</strong>.<br />
Although I have attended several briefings by our<br />
mission control personnel on the general background of<br />
<strong>Earth</strong> within the past few hundred years, I will rely<br />
principally on data gathered from records captured<br />
after our invasion of the "Old Empire" planetary<br />
headquarters. Since that time <strong>The</strong> Domain Expeditionary<br />
Force has tracked the general progress of events on<br />
<strong>Earth</strong>.<br />
As I mentioned, in some cases <strong>The</strong> Domain has chosen to<br />
intervene in certain affairs on <strong>Earth</strong> in order to ensure<br />
the success of our long term expansion plans. Although<br />
<strong>The</strong> Domain has no interest in <strong>Earth</strong>, per se, or in the<br />
population of IS-BEs on this planet, it does serve our<br />
interests to ensure that the resources of <strong>Earth</strong> are not<br />
destroyed or spoiled. To that end, certain officers of<br />
<strong>The</strong> Domain have been sent to <strong>Earth</strong> on reconnaissance<br />
missions from time to time to gather information.<br />
However, the following dates <strong>and</strong> events have been<br />
extrapolated from the accumulated information in the<br />
data files of <strong>The</strong> Domain -- at least those that are<br />
accessible to me through the space station<br />
communications center.<br />
208,000 BCE --<br />
<strong>The</strong> establishment of the "Old Empire", whose<br />
headquarters were located near one of the "tail stars"<br />
in the Ursa Major (Big Dipper) Constellation 124 (Footnote) of<br />
this galaxy. <strong>The</strong> "Old Empire" invasion force conquered<br />
the area with nuclear weapons sometime earlier. After<br />
81
the radioactivity 125 (Footnote) subsided <strong>and</strong> the clean-up <strong>and</strong><br />
restoration were completed, it received the immigration<br />
of beings from another galaxy into this galaxy. Those<br />
beings set up a society that kept going until about<br />
10,000 years ago when it was superseded by <strong>The</strong> Domain.<br />
Very recently <strong>Earth</strong> civilization has come to resemble<br />
aspects of that civilization, now that it has fallen out<br />
of its immediate control. In particular, the appearance<br />
<strong>and</strong> technology of transportation such as planes, trains,<br />
ships, fire engines, <strong>and</strong> automobiles, as well as what<br />
you consider to be "modern" or "futuristic"<br />
architecture, which emulate the design of buildings in<br />
the major cities of the "Old Empire".<br />
Before 75,000 BCE --<br />
<strong>The</strong> Domain records contain very little information about<br />
the civilizations on the continental l<strong>and</strong> masses of<br />
Atlanta 126 (Footnote) <strong>and</strong> Lemur 127 (Footnote), except to note that<br />
they did coexist on <strong>Earth</strong> at more or less the same time.<br />
Apparently, both civilizations were founded by remnants<br />
of electronic, space opera cultures who fled from their<br />
native planetary systems to escape political or<br />
religious persecution.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Domain knows that a long-st<strong>and</strong>ing edict of the "Old<br />
Empire" prohibits unauthorized colonization of planets.<br />
<strong>The</strong>refore, it is possible that their destruction was<br />
caused by police or military forces who pursued the<br />
colonists as criminals <strong>and</strong> destroyed them. Although<br />
this seems a likely supposition, no conclusive evidence<br />
exists that explains the complete destruction <strong>and</strong><br />
disappearance of two entire electronic civilizations.<br />
Another possibility is that a massive submarine volcanic<br />
eruption in the region of Lake Toba, in Sumatra 128 (Footnote)<br />
<strong>and</strong> Mt. Krakatoa 129 (Footnote) in Java caused the destruction<br />
of Lemur. <strong>The</strong> flood waters caused by the eruption<br />
overwhelmed all the l<strong>and</strong> masses, including the highest<br />
mountains. Survivors of the destruction of the<br />
civilization, the Lemurians, are the earliest ancestors<br />
of the Chinese. Australia <strong>and</strong> the ocean areas to the<br />
north were the center of the Lemurian civilization <strong>and</strong><br />
are the source of Oriental races. Both civilizations<br />
possessed electronics, flight <strong>and</strong> similar technologies<br />
of space opera cultures.<br />
82
Apparently, the volcanic eruption expelled such a<br />
significant mass of molten rock that the resulting<br />
vacuum beneath the crust of <strong>Earth</strong> caused great areas of<br />
the l<strong>and</strong> masses to sink below the oceans. <strong>The</strong><br />
continental areas occupied by both civilizations were<br />
covered with volcanic matter, <strong>and</strong> then submerged,<br />
leaving very little evidence that they ever existed<br />
except for legends of a global flood which prevail in<br />
every culture of the <strong>Earth</strong>, <strong>and</strong> for survivors who are<br />
the genus of oriental races <strong>and</strong> cultures.<br />
That kind of colossal volcanic explosion 130 (Footnote) fills<br />
the stratosphere with toxic gases which are carried<br />
around the whole planet. <strong>The</strong> usual refuse of these<br />
volcanic eruptions can easily cause a rain that lasts<br />
for "40 days <strong>and</strong> 40 nights" due to atmospheric pollution<br />
as well as an extensive period during which radiation<br />
from the sun is deflected back into space, <strong>and</strong> cause<br />
global cooling. 131 (Footnote) Certainly such an event would<br />
cause an ice age, extinctions of life forms <strong>and</strong> many<br />
other relatively long-term changes lasting thous<strong>and</strong>s of<br />
years.<br />
Due to the myriad types of naturally occurring global<br />
cataclysmic events which are indigenous to <strong>Earth</strong>, it is<br />
not a suitable planet for habitation by IS-BEs. In<br />
addition there have been occasional global cataclysms<br />
caused by IS-BEs such as the one that destroyed the<br />
dinosaurs 132 (Footnote) more than 70 million years ago. That<br />
destruction was caused by intergalactic warfare during<br />
which time <strong>Earth</strong>, <strong>and</strong> many other neighboring moons <strong>and</strong><br />
planets, were bombarded by atomic weapons. Atomic<br />
explosions cause atmospheric fallout much like that of<br />
volcanic eruptions. 133 (Footnote) Most of the planets in this<br />
sector of the galaxy have been uninhabitable deserts<br />
since then.<br />
<strong>Earth</strong> is undesirable for many other reasons: heavy<br />
gravity <strong>and</strong> dense atmosphere, floods, earthquakes,<br />
volcanoes, polar shifts, continental drift, meteor<br />
impacts, atmospheric <strong>and</strong> climatic changes, to name a<br />
few. What kind of lasting civilization could any<br />
sophisticated culture propose to develop in such an<br />
environment?<br />
83
In addition, <strong>Earth</strong> is a small planet of a "rim star" of<br />
a galaxy. This makes <strong>Earth</strong> very isolated geographically<br />
from the more concentrated planetary civilizations which<br />
exist toward the center of the galaxy. <strong>The</strong>se obvious<br />
facts have made <strong>Earth</strong> suitable for use only as a<br />
zoological or botanical garden, or for it's current use<br />
as a prison -- but not much else.<br />
Before 30,000 BCE --<br />
<strong>Earth</strong> started being used a dumping ground <strong>and</strong> prison for<br />
IS-BEs who were judged "untouchable", meaning criminal<br />
or non-conformists. IS-BEs were captured, encapsulated<br />
in electronic traps <strong>and</strong> transported to <strong>Earth</strong> from<br />
various parts of the "Old Empire". Underground "amnesia<br />
stations" were set up on Mars <strong>and</strong> on <strong>Earth</strong> in the<br />
Rwenzori Mountains 134 (Footnote) in Africa, in the Pyrenees<br />
Mountains 135 (Footnote) of Portugal, <strong>and</strong> in steppes of<br />
Mongolia. 136 (Footnote)<br />
<strong>The</strong>se electronic monitoring points create force screens<br />
designed to detect <strong>and</strong> capture IS-BEs, when the IS-BE<br />
departs the body at death. IS-BEs are brainwashed using<br />
extreme electronic force in order to maintain <strong>Earth</strong>'s<br />
population in state of perpetual amnesia. Further<br />
population controls are installed through the use of<br />
long range electronic thought control mechanisms.<br />
<strong>The</strong>se stations are still in operation <strong>and</strong> they are<br />
extremely difficult to attack or destroy, even for <strong>The</strong><br />
Domain, which will not maintain a significant military<br />
force in this area until a later date.<br />
<strong>The</strong> pyramid civilizations were intentionally created as<br />
part of the IS-BE prison system on <strong>Earth</strong>. <strong>The</strong> pyramid<br />
is alleged to be the symbol for "wisdom". However, the<br />
"wisdom" of the "Old Empire" on planet <strong>Earth</strong> is intended<br />
to operate as part of the elaborate amnesia "trap"<br />
consisting of MASS, MEANING <strong>and</strong> MYSTERY. <strong>The</strong>se are<br />
opposite to the qualities of an Immortal Spiritual Being<br />
which have no mass, or meaning. An IS-BE "is" solely<br />
because it thinks that it "is".<br />
MASS represents the physical universe, including objects<br />
such as stars, planets, gases, liquids, energy particles<br />
<strong>and</strong> tea cups. <strong>The</strong> Pyramids were very, very solid<br />
objects, as were all of the structures created by the<br />
"Old Empire". Heavy, massive, dense, solid objects<br />
84
create the illusion of eternity. Dead bodies wrapped in<br />
linen, soaked in resin, placed inside engraved golden<br />
coffins <strong>and</strong> entombed with <strong>Earth</strong>ly possessions amid<br />
cryptic symbols create an illusion of eternal life.<br />
However, dense, heavy physical universe symbols are the<br />
exact opposite of an IS-BE. An IS-BE has no mass or<br />
time. Objects do not endure forever. An IS-BE "is"<br />
forever.<br />
MEANING: False meanings prevent knowledge of the truth.<br />
<strong>The</strong> pyramid cultures of <strong>Earth</strong> are a fabricated illusion.<br />
<strong>The</strong>y are nothing more than "false civilizations"<br />
contrived by the "Old Empire" mystery cult called the<br />
Brothers of the Serpent. False meanings were invented<br />
to create the illusion of a false society to further<br />
reinforce the amnesia mechanism among the intimates in<br />
the <strong>Earth</strong> prison system.<br />
MYSTERY is built of lies <strong>and</strong> half-truths. Lies cause<br />
persistence because they alter facts which are comprised<br />
of exact dates, places <strong>and</strong> events. When truth is known,<br />
a lie no longer persists. If the exact truth is<br />
revealed, it is no longer a mystery.<br />
All of the pyramid civilizations of <strong>Earth</strong> were carefully<br />
contrived of layer upon layer of lies, skillfully<br />
combined with a few truths. <strong>The</strong> priest cult of the "Old<br />
Empire" combined sophisticated mathematics <strong>and</strong> space<br />
opera technology, with theatrical metaphors <strong>and</strong><br />
symbolism. All of these are complete fabrications of<br />
truth, baited with the allure of aesthetics <strong>and</strong> mystery.<br />
<strong>The</strong> intricate rituals, astronomical alignments, secret<br />
rites, massive monuments, marvelous architecture,<br />
artistically rendered hieroglyphs <strong>and</strong> man-animal "gods"<br />
were designed to create a unsolvable mystery for the IS-<br />
BE prison population on <strong>Earth</strong>. <strong>The</strong> mystery diverts<br />
attention away from the truth that IS-BEs have been<br />
captured, given amnesia <strong>and</strong> imprisoned on a planet far,<br />
far away from their home.<br />
<strong>The</strong> truth is that every single IS-BE on <strong>Earth</strong> came to<br />
<strong>Earth</strong> from some other planetary system. Not one person<br />
on <strong>Earth</strong> is a "native" inhabitant. Human beings did not<br />
"evolve" on <strong>Earth</strong>.<br />
85
In the past, Egyptian society was run by the prison<br />
administrators or priests, who, in turn, manipulated a<br />
Pharaoh, controlled the treasury <strong>and</strong> kept the inmate<br />
population enslaved physically <strong>and</strong> spiritually. In<br />
modern times, the priests have changed, but the function<br />
is the same. However, now the priest are prisoners too.<br />
Mystery reinforces the walls of the prison. <strong>The</strong> "Old<br />
Empire" feared that the IS-BEs on <strong>Earth</strong> might regain<br />
their memory. <strong>The</strong>refore, one of the primary functions<br />
of <strong>The</strong> "Old Empire" priesthood is to prevent IS-BEs on<br />
<strong>Earth</strong> from remembering who they really are, how they<br />
came to <strong>Earth</strong>, where they came from.<br />
<strong>The</strong> "Old Empire" operators of the prison system, <strong>and</strong><br />
their superiors, do not want IS-BEs to remember who<br />
murdered them, captured them, stole all of their<br />
possessions, sent them to <strong>Earth</strong>, gave them amnesia <strong>and</strong><br />
condemned them to eternal imprisonment!<br />
Imagine what might happen if all of the inmates in the<br />
prison suddenly remembered that they have the right to<br />
be free! What if they suddenly realized that they have<br />
been falsely imprisoned <strong>and</strong> rise up as one against the<br />
guards?<br />
<strong>The</strong>y are afraid to reveal anything that looks like the<br />
civilization of the inmates home planets. A body, a<br />
piece of clothing, a symbol, a space ship, an advanced<br />
electronics device, or any other remnant of civilization<br />
from a home planet could "remind" a being <strong>and</strong> rekindle<br />
his memory.<br />
Sophisticated technologies of entrapment <strong>and</strong><br />
enslavement, which were developed over millions of<br />
years in the "Old Empire", have been applied to the IS-<br />
BEs on <strong>Earth</strong> with the intention to create a false facade<br />
for the prison. <strong>The</strong>se facades were installed on <strong>Earth</strong><br />
in totality, all at once. Every piece is a fully<br />
integrated part of the prison system.<br />
This includes a religion of mumbo-jumbo double-speak.<br />
Every pyramid civilization uses this as part of a<br />
control mechanism to keep the population enslaved by<br />
force, by fear <strong>and</strong> by ignorance. <strong>The</strong> indecipherable<br />
muddle of irrelevant information, geometric designs,<br />
mathematical calculation, astronomical alignments, are<br />
86
part of a false spirituality based on solid objects,<br />
rather than immortal spirits, in order to confuse <strong>and</strong><br />
disorient the IS-BEs on <strong>Earth</strong>.<br />
When the body of a person died they were buried with<br />
their <strong>Earth</strong>ly possessions, including their former body<br />
wrapped in linen, to sustain their "soul" or "Ka" after<br />
death. An IS-BE does not "have" as soul. An IS-BE is a<br />
soul.<br />
On the home planet of an IS-BE their material<br />
possessions were not lost, stolen or forgotten when the<br />
being died or left the body. An IS-BE could return <strong>and</strong><br />
claim the possessions. However, if the IS-BE has<br />
amnesia, they will not remember that they had any<br />
possession. So, governments, insurance companies,<br />
bankers, family members <strong>and</strong> other vultures can pick<br />
their possessions clean without fear of retribution from<br />
the deceased. 137 (Footnote)<br />
<strong>The</strong> only reason for these false meanings is to instill<br />
the idea that an IS-BE is NOT a spirit, but a physical<br />
object! This is a lie. It is a trap for an IS-BE.<br />
Countless people have spent endless hours attempting to<br />
solve the jig-saw puzzle of Egypt <strong>and</strong> other "Old Empire"<br />
civilizations. <strong>The</strong>y are puzzles made of pieces that do<br />
not fit. A question states its own answer. What is the<br />
mystery of Egypt <strong>and</strong> other pyramid cultures? Mystery!<br />
circa 15,000 BCE --<br />
<strong>The</strong> "Old Empire" forces supervised the construction of a<br />
hydraulic mining operations in the Andes Mountains in<br />
present day Bolivia near Lake Titicaca (Lake of Tin<br />
Stones) at Tiahuanaco 138 (Footnote) including construction of<br />
the massive stone complex of carved stone buildings<br />
known as Kalasasaya <strong>and</strong> its "Gate of the Sun" at an<br />
elevation of nearly 14,000 feet.<br />
11,600 BCE --<br />
<strong>The</strong> Polar Axis of <strong>Earth</strong> shifted 139 (Footnote) to a sea area.<br />
<strong>The</strong> last Ice Age came to an end abruptly as the polar<br />
ice caps melted <strong>and</strong> the level of the ocean rose to<br />
submerge large sections of the l<strong>and</strong> masses of <strong>Earth</strong>.<br />
<strong>The</strong> last remaining vestiges of Atlantis <strong>and</strong> Lemuria were<br />
87
covered by water. Massive extinctions of animals<br />
occurred in the Americas, Australia <strong>and</strong> the Artic<br />
Regions due to the shift of the poles.<br />
10,450 BCE --<br />
Plans were made by the "Old Empire" IS-BE called Thoth<br />
for construction of a Great Pyramid of Giza. <strong>The</strong> 4 "air<br />
shafts" of the pyramid point precisely to key stars in<br />
the "Old Empire" as seen from Giza in this year. <strong>The</strong><br />
alignment of the Pyramids of Giza on the ground matches<br />
perfectly the alignment of the constellation of Orion as<br />
seen in the sky from Giza relative to the Nile as the<br />
earthly representation of the Milky Way in the sky. 140<br />
(Footnote)<br />
10,400 BCE --<br />
According to the <strong>Earth</strong> historian, Herodotus, records<br />
from the ruined civilization of Atlantis, containing<br />
electronic technology <strong>and</strong> other technology of that<br />
society, were buried in a vault beneath the paws of <strong>The</strong><br />
Sphinx. <strong>The</strong> Greek historian wrote that he was told this<br />
by some of his friends who were Priests of Anu, the<br />
Sumerian god, at the Egyptian city of Heliopolis.<br />
However, it is highly unlikely that any traces of an<br />
electronic civilization would be allowed to be left<br />
intact on <strong>Earth</strong> by the "old empire" prison system<br />
administrators. 141 (Footnote).<br />
8,212 BCE --<br />
<strong>The</strong> Veda or Vedic hymns are a set of religious hymns<br />
that were introduced into the societies of <strong>Earth</strong>. <strong>The</strong>y<br />
came forward in spoken tradition, memorized, from<br />
generation to generation. "<strong>The</strong> Hymn to the Dawn Child''<br />
includes an idea called the "cycle of the physical<br />
universe": the creation, growth, conservation, decay <strong>and</strong><br />
death or destruction of energy <strong>and</strong> matter in a space.<br />
<strong>The</strong>se cycles produce time. <strong>The</strong> same set of hymns<br />
describes the "theory of evolution". Here is a<br />
tremendous body of knowledge which contains a great deal<br />
of spiritual truth. Unfortunately, it has been<br />
incorrectly evaluated by humans <strong>and</strong> altered with lies<br />
<strong>and</strong> reversals of fact by priests which are a booby trap<br />
to prevent anyone from using the wisdom to discover a<br />
way to escape from the prison planet.<br />
88
8,050 BCE --<br />
Destruction of the "Old Empire" home planet government<br />
in this galaxy. This was the end of the "Old Empire" as<br />
a political entity in the galaxy. However, the vast<br />
size of the "Old Empire" will take many thous<strong>and</strong>s of<br />
years for <strong>The</strong> Domain to conquer completely. <strong>The</strong> inertia<br />
of the political, economic <strong>and</strong> cultural systems of the<br />
"Old Empire" will remain in place for some time to come.<br />
However, remnants of the "Old Empire" space fleet in the<br />
solar system of <strong>Earth</strong> were finally destroyed in 1,230<br />
AD. In addition to operatives of the "Old Empire" who<br />
run the <strong>Earth</strong> prison operation, there were other beings<br />
from the "Old Empire" who came to <strong>Earth</strong>. Since <strong>Earth</strong><br />
was no longer under the control of the "Old Empire"<br />
after their defeat by <strong>The</strong> Domain Forces, there was no<br />
police force to control military renegades, space<br />
pirates, miners, merchants <strong>and</strong> entrepreneurs who came to<br />
<strong>Earth</strong> to exploit the resources of the planet for<br />
personal gain, <strong>and</strong> many other nefarious reasons.<br />
For example, the history of <strong>Earth</strong>, according to the<br />
Jewish people, describes the "Nephilim". 142 (Footnote) Chapter<br />
6 of <strong>The</strong> Book of Genesis, describes the origin of the<br />
"Nephilim" :<br />
"Now it came about, when men began to multiply on<br />
the face of the l<strong>and</strong>, <strong>and</strong> daughters were born to<br />
them, that the "sons of God" saw that the daughters<br />
of men were beautiful; <strong>and</strong> they took wives for<br />
themselves, whomever they chose.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Nephilim were on the earth in those days, <strong>and</strong><br />
also afterward, when the sons of God came in to the<br />
daughters of men, <strong>and</strong> they bore children to them.<br />
Those were the mighty men who were of old, men of<br />
renown."<br />
<strong>The</strong> ancient Jewish people who wrote the history book<br />
called the Old Testament were slaves, herders <strong>and</strong><br />
gatherers. Any modern technology, even a simple<br />
flashlight, would seem astounding <strong>and</strong> miraculous to<br />
them. <strong>The</strong>y attributed any unexplainable phenomenon or<br />
technology to the workings of a "god". Unfortunately,<br />
this behavior is universal among all IS-BEs who have<br />
been given amnesia, <strong>and</strong> cannot remember their own<br />
89
experiences, training, technology, personality or<br />
identity.<br />
Obviously, if these were men, <strong>and</strong> they mated with <strong>Earth</strong><br />
women, they were not "sons of god". <strong>The</strong>y were IS-BEs<br />
who inhabited biological bodies in order to take<br />
advantage of the political situation in the "Old<br />
Empire", or simply to indulge in physical sensation.<br />
<strong>The</strong>y set up small colonies of their own on <strong>Earth</strong> beyond<br />
the reach of the police <strong>and</strong> tax authorities.<br />
Coincidentally, one of the most serious crimes an IS-BE<br />
could commit in the "Old Empire" was to violate income<br />
tax regulations. Income taxes were used as a slavery<br />
mechanism <strong>and</strong> as a punishment in the "Old Empire". <strong>The</strong><br />
slightest error in a tax report made an IS-BE<br />
"untouchable", followed by imprisonment on <strong>Earth</strong>.<br />
6,750 BCE --<br />
Other Pyramid civilizations were set up by the "Old<br />
Empire" on <strong>Earth</strong>. <strong>The</strong>se were established in Babylon,<br />
Egypt, China <strong>and</strong> Mesoamerica. <strong>The</strong> Mesopotamian area<br />
provided service facilities, communication stations,<br />
space ports, <strong>and</strong> stone quarry operations for these false<br />
civilizations.<br />
Ptah was the name given to the first in a succession of<br />
administrators from the "Old Empire" who represented<br />
themselves to the <strong>Earth</strong> population as "divine" rulers.<br />
Ptah's importance may be understood when one learns that<br />
the word "Egypt" is a Greek corruption of the phrase<br />
"Het-Ka-Ptah," or "House of the Spirit of Ptah". Ptah,<br />
was nick-named "<strong>The</strong> Developer". He was a construction<br />
engineer. His high priest was given the title 'Great<br />
Leader of Craftsmen'.<br />
Ptah was also the god of reincarnation in Egypt. He<br />
originated the "opening of the mouth ceremony" which was<br />
performed by priests at funerals to "release souls" from<br />
their corpses. Of course, when the "souls" were<br />
released, they were captured, given amnesia, <strong>and</strong><br />
returned to <strong>Earth</strong> again.<br />
<strong>The</strong> so-called "Devine" rulers who followed Ptah on <strong>Earth</strong><br />
were called "Ntr", meaning "Guardians or Watchers" by<br />
90
the Egyptians. <strong>The</strong>ir symbol was the Serpent, or Dragon<br />
which represented a secret priesthood of the "Old<br />
Empire" called the "Brothers of the Serpent".<br />
"Old Empire" engineers used cutting tools of highly<br />
concentrated light waves to quickly carve <strong>and</strong> excavate<br />
stone blocks. 143 (Footnote) <strong>The</strong>y also used force fields <strong>and</strong><br />
space craft to lift <strong>and</strong> transport blocks of stone<br />
weighing hundred or thous<strong>and</strong>s of tons each. <strong>The</strong><br />
placement on the ground of some of these structures will<br />
be found to have geodetic or astronomical significance<br />
relative to various stars in this galactic region.<br />
<strong>The</strong> buildings are crude <strong>and</strong> impractical, compared to<br />
building st<strong>and</strong>ards on most planets. As an engineer of<br />
<strong>The</strong> Domain, I can attest that make-shift structures like<br />
these would never pass inspection on a planet in <strong>The</strong><br />
Domain. Stone blocks such as those used in the pyramid<br />
civilizations can still be seen, partially excavated, in<br />
the stone quarries in the Middle East 144 (Footnote) <strong>and</strong><br />
elsewhere.<br />
Most of the structures were hastily built "props", much<br />
like the false facades of a western town on the set of a<br />
motion picture. <strong>The</strong>y appear to be real, <strong>and</strong> to have<br />
some use or value however, they have no value. <strong>The</strong>y have<br />
no useful purpose. <strong>The</strong> pyramids <strong>and</strong> all of the other<br />
stone monuments erected by the "Old Empire" could be<br />
called "mystery monuments". For what reason would<br />
anyone waste so many resources to construct so many<br />
useless buildings? To create a mysterious illusion.<br />
<strong>The</strong> fact of the matter is that each one of the "divine<br />
rulers" were IS-BEs who served as operatives of the "Old<br />
Empire". <strong>The</strong>y were certainly not "divine", although<br />
they were IS-BEs.<br />
6248 BCE --<br />
<strong>The</strong> beginning of active warfare between <strong>The</strong> Domain Space<br />
Comm<strong>and</strong> <strong>and</strong> the surviving remnants of the "Old Empire"<br />
space fleet in this solar system that lasted nearly<br />
7,500 years. It began when an installation was<br />
established in the Himalaya mountains by a battalion of<br />
the 3,000 officers <strong>and</strong> crew members of <strong>The</strong> Domain<br />
Expeditionary Force. <strong>The</strong> installation was not fortified<br />
91
as <strong>The</strong> Domain was not aware that the "Old Empire"<br />
maintained <strong>Earth</strong> as a prison planet.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Domain installation was attacked <strong>and</strong> destroyed by<br />
space forces of the "Old Empire" who continued to<br />
operate in the solar system of <strong>Earth</strong>. IS-BEs of <strong>The</strong><br />
Domain battalion were captured, taken to Mars, given<br />
amnesia, <strong>and</strong> sent back to <strong>Earth</strong> to inhabit human<br />
biological bodies. <strong>The</strong>y are still on <strong>Earth</strong>.<br />
5,965 BCE --<br />
Investigations into the disappearance of Domain forces<br />
in this solar system led to the discovery of "Old<br />
Empire" bases on Mars <strong>and</strong> elsewhere. <strong>The</strong> Domain took<br />
over the planet Venus 145 (Footnote) as a defensive position<br />
against the space forces of the "Old Empire". <strong>The</strong><br />
Domain Expeditionary Force also monitors life forms on<br />
Venus which has a very dense, hot <strong>and</strong> heavy atmosphere<br />
of sulfuric acid clouds. <strong>The</strong>re are a few life forms on<br />
<strong>Earth</strong> that can endure an atmospheric environment like<br />
Venus. 146 (Footnote)<br />
<strong>The</strong> Domain also established secret installations or<br />
space stations in the <strong>Earth</strong> solar system. This solar<br />
system has a planet that is broken up -- the asteroid<br />
belt. 147 (Footnote) It provides a very useful low-gravity<br />
platform for take off <strong>and</strong> l<strong>and</strong>ing of space craft. It is<br />
used as a "galactic jump" between the Milky Way <strong>and</strong><br />
adjoining galaxies. <strong>The</strong>re aren't any planets at this end<br />
of the galaxy that can serve as a good galactic entering<br />
spot for incoming transport, <strong>and</strong> other ships. But this<br />
broken up planet makes a very ideal space station. As a<br />
result of our war against the "Old Empire", this area of<br />
the solar system is now a valuable possession of <strong>The</strong><br />
Domain.<br />
3,450 - 3,100 BCE --<br />
<strong>The</strong> intervention into the affairs on <strong>Earth</strong> by the "Old<br />
Empire" operatives or "divine gods" was disrupted at<br />
this time by <strong>The</strong> Domain Forces. <strong>The</strong>y were forced to<br />
replace themselves with human rulers. <strong>The</strong> First Dynasty<br />
of human Pharaohs who united Upper <strong>and</strong> Lower Egypt began<br />
with the rule of a Pharaoh who, coincidentally, was<br />
named "MEN". He established the capital city called<br />
Men-Nefer, "<strong>The</strong> Beauty of Men" in Egypt. This started<br />
92
the first succession of 10 human Pharaohs <strong>and</strong> a period<br />
of 350 years of chaos that followed in the<br />
administrative ranks of the "Old Empire".<br />
3,200 BCE --<br />
As I mentioned earlier, <strong>Earth</strong> was under attack between<br />
<strong>The</strong> Domain <strong>and</strong> the "Old Empire" forces during this<br />
period. Of course this does not make any sense to<br />
archaeologists or historians on <strong>Earth</strong>, because the<br />
Egyptian period is a space opera era period. Since<br />
<strong>Earth</strong> historians have amnesia, they assume that this was<br />
only a religious period.<br />
Further, because the technology <strong>and</strong> civilizations<br />
installed on <strong>Earth</strong> during this period were "prepackaged",<br />
they did not "evolve" on <strong>Earth</strong>. Of course,<br />
there is no evidence anywhere on <strong>Earth</strong> of an<br />
evolutionary transition which resulted in sophisticated<br />
mathematics, language, writing, religion, architecture,<br />
cultural traditions in Egypt or any of the pyramid<br />
civilizations. <strong>The</strong>se cultures, complete with all of the<br />
details of racial body types, hair-styles, facial makeup,<br />
rituals, moral codes <strong>and</strong> so forth, just "appeared"<br />
as complete integrated packages.<br />
<strong>The</strong> physical evidence suggests that all evidence of the<br />
intervention of <strong>The</strong> Domain or "Old Empire" Forces, or<br />
any other extraterrestrial activity, has been carefully<br />
"cleaned up", so as not to create suspicion. <strong>The</strong> "Old<br />
Empire" force does not want the IS-BEs of <strong>Earth</strong> to<br />
suspect that they have been captured, transplanted to<br />
<strong>Earth</strong> <strong>and</strong> brainwashed.<br />
So, <strong>Earth</strong> historians continue to assume that Egyptian<br />
priests were not supposed to have "ray guns" or other<br />
technology of the "Old Empire". And, they suppose that<br />
there was nothing going on, on <strong>Earth</strong>, except some<br />
priests walking around saying 'Amen', which the<br />
Christians still say.<br />
3,172 BCE --<br />
Layout of the astronomical grid that joins the key<br />
mining sites <strong>and</strong> astronomical buildings of 'the gods' in<br />
the Andes Mountains such as Tiahuanaco, 148 (Footnote) Cuzco,<br />
Quito, the cities of Ollantaytambu, 149 (Footnote) Machupiccu 150<br />
93
(Footnote) <strong>and</strong> Pachacamac 151 (Footnote) for the mining of rare<br />
metals, including tin for use in making bronze. Metals<br />
were the property of "the gods", of course.<br />
A great variety of entrepreneurial mining was done on<br />
<strong>Earth</strong> at that time due to the war between the "Old<br />
Empire" force <strong>and</strong> <strong>The</strong> Domain. <strong>The</strong>se miners did carve a<br />
few sculptures of themselves. <strong>The</strong>y are seen wearing<br />
mining helmets. <strong>The</strong> Ponce stela sculpture in the sunken<br />
courtyard of the Kalasasaya temple is a crude rendering<br />
of a stone worker using an electronic, light-wave<br />
emitting stone cutter <strong>and</strong> carving tools, held in a<br />
holster. 152 (Footnote)<br />
<strong>The</strong> "Old Empire" has also maintained mining operations<br />
on planets throughout the galaxy for a very long time.<br />
<strong>The</strong> mineral resources of <strong>Earth</strong> are now a property of <strong>The</strong><br />
Domain.<br />
2,450 BCE --<br />
<strong>The</strong> "great" pyramid 153 (Footnote) <strong>and</strong> complex of pyramids<br />
near Cairo were completed. An inscription created by<br />
the "Old Empire" administrators can be seen in the socalled<br />
Pyramid texts. 154 (Footnote) <strong>The</strong> texts say that the<br />
pyramid was built under the direction of Thoth, Son of<br />
Ptah. Of course there was never a King buried in the<br />
chamber, since the pyramids were never intended to be<br />
used as a burial chamber.<br />
<strong>The</strong> great pyramid was located precisely at the exact<br />
center of all of the l<strong>and</strong> masses of <strong>Earth</strong>, 155 (Footnote) as<br />
viewed from space. Obviously such precise measurements<br />
require aerial perspective <strong>and</strong> a view of the l<strong>and</strong> masses<br />
of <strong>Earth</strong> from space. Purely mathematical calculations<br />
of the geodetic center of the continents of <strong>Earth</strong> could<br />
not be made otherwise.<br />
Shafts were constructed inside the pyramid to align with<br />
the configuration of stars in the constellation of<br />
Orion, Canus Majora, <strong>and</strong> specifically Sirius. <strong>The</strong><br />
shafts are also aligned to the Big Dipper, where the<br />
home planet of the "Old Empire" existed. Also, Ainitak,<br />
Alpha Draconis <strong>and</strong> Beta Ursa Minor. 156 (Footnote) <strong>The</strong>se stars<br />
are each one of the key systems in the "Old Empire" from<br />
which IS-BEs were brought to <strong>Earth</strong> <strong>and</strong> dumped, as<br />
unwanted merch<strong>and</strong>ise.<br />
94
<strong>The</strong> configuration of all the pyramids of the Giza<br />
Plateau was intended to create a "mirror image", on<br />
<strong>Earth</strong> of the solar system <strong>and</strong> certain constellations<br />
within the "Old Empire".<br />
2,181 BCE --<br />
MIN, became the God of Fertility of Egypt. <strong>The</strong> IS-BE,<br />
also known as Pan, was also a Greek god. Min or Pan,<br />
was an IS-BE who somehow managed to escape from the "Old<br />
Empire" amnesia system. 157 (Footnote)<br />
2,160 - 2040 BCE --<br />
One of the results of the intensifying battle between<br />
<strong>The</strong> Domain Forces <strong>and</strong> the "Old Empire" forces was that<br />
the control of the "divine rulers", was broken at this<br />
time. <strong>The</strong>y finally left Egypt <strong>and</strong> returned to the<br />
"heavens", so to speak, in defeat. Human beings took<br />
over the ruling role as Pharaohs. <strong>The</strong> first human<br />
pharaoh moved the Capital city of Egypt from Memphis to<br />
Heracleopolis. 158 (Footnote)<br />
1,500 BCE --<br />
This is the date for the destruction of Atlantis given<br />
by the Egyptian high-priests, Psenophis of Heliopolis,<br />
<strong>and</strong> Sonchis of Sais, to the Greek sage Solon. 159 (Footnote)<br />
<strong>The</strong> Priests of Anu recorded that the Mediterranean area<br />
was invaded by "Atlantean" people about this time. Of<br />
course, these people were not from the ancient continent<br />
of Atlanta, in the Atlantic Ocean, which existed more<br />
than 70,000 years earlier.<br />
<strong>The</strong>se were refugees from the Minoan civilization on<br />
Crete escaping from the volcanic eruption <strong>and</strong> tidal<br />
waves of Mt. <strong>The</strong>ra that destroyed their civilization.<br />
Plato's references to Atlantis were borrowed from the<br />
writings of the Greek philosopher Solon, who was given<br />
the information by the Egyptian priest who called<br />
Atlantis "Kepchu", which also happens to be the Egyptian<br />
name for the people of Crete. Some of the survivors of<br />
the Minoan volcanic disaster asked Egypt for help, since<br />
they were the only other civilization with high culture<br />
in the Mediterranean area at the time. 160 (Footnote)<br />
95
1351 BCE - 1337 BCE --<br />
<strong>The</strong> Domain Expeditionary Force actively waged a war of<br />
religious conquest against the Egyptian mystery cult<br />
called the Priest of Amun, also known as the "Old<br />
Empire" Brothers of <strong>The</strong> Serpent. During this time the<br />
Pharaoh Akhenaten abolished the priesthood of Amun, <strong>and</strong><br />
moved the capital of Egypt from <strong>The</strong>bes to the new<br />
location at Amarna, at the exact geodetic center of<br />
Egypt 161 (Footnote). However, this plot to overthrow the "Old<br />
Empire" religious control was quickly spoiled.<br />
1,193 BCE --<br />
In the Near East <strong>and</strong> Achaea, the Greeks <strong>and</strong> Trojans<br />
fought for supremacy, which ended in the destruction of<br />
Troy as the finale of the Trojan War. 162 (Footnote) During<br />
this same time, war was being fought out in the space of<br />
the solar system between two forces for control of the<br />
"space stations" surrounding <strong>Earth</strong>. That period of 300<br />
years was a very violent resistance to <strong>The</strong> Domain Forces<br />
by the remnants of the "Old Empire" forces. It did not<br />
last long however, as it is futile to resist <strong>The</strong> Domain.<br />
850 BCE --<br />
Homer, the blind Greek poet, 163 (Footnote) wrote the stories<br />
'the gods' as borrowed <strong>and</strong> modified from earlier sources<br />
in Vedic texts, Sumerian texts, Babylonian <strong>and</strong> Egyptian<br />
mythology. His poems, as well as many other "myths" of<br />
the ancient world are very accurate descriptions of the<br />
exploits of IS-BE's on <strong>Earth</strong> who were able to avoid the<br />
"Old Empire amnesia operation <strong>and</strong> operate without<br />
biological bodies.<br />
700 BCE --<br />
<strong>The</strong> Vedic Hymns were first translated in the Greek<br />
language. This was the beginning of a cultural<br />
revolution in Western civilization that transformed<br />
crude <strong>and</strong> brutal tribal cultures into democratic<br />
republics based on more reasonable conduct.<br />
638 - 559 BCE --<br />
Solon, a wise man from Greece, reported the existence of<br />
Atlantis. This was information he received from the<br />
96
"Old Empire" high-priests, Psenophis of Heliopolis <strong>and</strong><br />
Sonchis of Sais, with whom he studied in Egypt. 164 (Footnote)<br />
630 BCE --<br />
Zoroaster 165 (Footnote) created religious practices in Persia<br />
around an IS-BE called Ahura Mazda. 166 (Footnote) This was yet<br />
another of the growing number of "monotheistic" gods put<br />
in place by operatives of <strong>The</strong> Domain to displace a<br />
panoply of "Old Empire" gods.<br />
604 BCE --<br />
Laozi, a philosopher who wrote a small book called "<strong>The</strong><br />
Way", 167 (Footnote) was an IS-BE of great wisdom, who<br />
overcame the effects of the "Old Empire" amnesia /<br />
hypnosis machinery <strong>and</strong> escaped from <strong>Earth</strong>. His<br />
underst<strong>and</strong>ing of the nature of an IS-BE must have been<br />
very good to accomplish this.<br />
According to the common legend, his last lifetime as a<br />
human was lived in a small village in China. He<br />
contemplated the essence of his own life. Like Guatama<br />
Siddhartha, he confronted his own thoughts, <strong>and</strong> past<br />
lives. In so doing, he recovered some of his own<br />
memory, ability <strong>and</strong> immortality.<br />
As an old man, he decided to leave the village <strong>and</strong> go to<br />
the forest to depart the body. <strong>The</strong> village gatekeeper<br />
stopped him <strong>and</strong> begged him to write down his personal<br />
philosophy before leaving. Here is a small piece of<br />
advice he gave about "the way" he rediscovered his own<br />
spirit:<br />
"He who looks will not see it;<br />
He who listens will not hear it;<br />
He who gropes will not grasp it.<br />
<strong>The</strong> formless nonentity, the motionless source of motion.<br />
<strong>The</strong> infinite essence of the spirit is the source of<br />
life.<br />
Spirit is self.<br />
Walls form <strong>and</strong> support a room,<br />
yet the space between them is most important.<br />
A pot is formed of clay,<br />
yet the space formed therein is most useful.<br />
Action is caused by the force of nothing on something,<br />
97
just as the nothing of spirit is the source of all form.<br />
One suffers great afflictions because one has a body.<br />
Without a body what afflictions could one suffer?<br />
When one cares more for the body than for his own<br />
spirit,<br />
One becomes the body <strong>and</strong> looses the way of the spirit.<br />
<strong>The</strong> self, the spirit, creates illusion.<br />
<strong>The</strong> delusion of Man is that reality is not an illusion.<br />
One who creates illusions <strong>and</strong> makes them more real than<br />
reality, follows the path of the spirit <strong>and</strong> finds the<br />
way of heaven".<br />
593 BCE --<br />
<strong>The</strong> Genesis story written by the Jewish people describe<br />
"angels" or "sons of god" mating with women of <strong>Earth</strong>,<br />
who bore them children. <strong>The</strong>se were probably renegades<br />
from the "Old Empire". <strong>The</strong>y may also have been space<br />
pirates or merchants from a system outside the galaxy<br />
who came to steal mineral resources, or smuggle drugs.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Domain has observed that there are many visitors to<br />
<strong>Earth</strong> from neighboring planets <strong>and</strong> galaxies, but they<br />
rarely stop <strong>and</strong> live here. What kind of beings would<br />
live on a prison planet if they were not forced to do<br />
so?<br />
<strong>The</strong> same book also reports the story of a human named<br />
Ezekiel who witnessed a spacecraft or aircraft l<strong>and</strong>ing<br />
near Chebar River in Chaldea. His description of the<br />
craft uses very archaic language, technically, but is<br />
nevertheless, quite an accurate description of an "Old<br />
Empire" saucer or scout craft. It is similar to the<br />
sighting of "vimanas" by the people in the foothills of<br />
the Himalayas.<br />
<strong>The</strong>ir Genesis story also mentions that "Yahweh" designed<br />
biological bodies to live for 120 years on <strong>Earth</strong>.<br />
Biological bodies on most "Sun Type 12, Class 7" planets<br />
are usually engineered to last for an average of about<br />
150 years. Human bodies on <strong>Earth</strong> last only about one<br />
half as long. We suspect this is because the prison<br />
administrators have altered the biological material of<br />
human bodies on <strong>Earth</strong> to die more frequently so that the<br />
98
IS-BEs who inhabit them will recycle through the amnesia<br />
mechanism more frequently. 168 (Footnote)<br />
It should be noted that much of the "Old Testament" was<br />
written during the captivity of the Jews who were<br />
enslaved in Babylon, which was very heavily controlled<br />
by priests of the "Old Empire". <strong>The</strong> book introduces a<br />
false sense of time <strong>and</strong> a false concept of the origin of<br />
the creation.<br />
<strong>The</strong> serpent is the symbol of the "Old Empire". It<br />
appears in the beginning of their creation story, or as<br />
the Greeks say, "Genesis", <strong>and</strong> causes the spiritual<br />
destruction of the first human beings, who are<br />
metaphorically represented by Adam <strong>and</strong> Eve.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Old Testament, clearly influenced by the "Old<br />
Empire" Forces, gives a detailed description of the IS-<br />
BEs being induced into biological bodies on <strong>Earth</strong>. This<br />
book also describes many of the "Old Empire"<br />
brainwashing activities, including the installation of<br />
false memories, lies, superstitions, comm<strong>and</strong>s to<br />
"forget" <strong>and</strong> all manner of tricks <strong>and</strong> traps designed to<br />
keep IS-BEs on <strong>Earth</strong>. Most importantly, it destroys the<br />
awareness that humans are Immortal Spiritual Beings.<br />
580 BCE --<br />
<strong>The</strong> Oracle at Delphi was one temple in a network of many<br />
oracle temples. Each temple was a communication center.<br />
<strong>The</strong> "Old Empire" priests designated a local "god" for<br />
each temple. Each of the temples in this network were<br />
located at precisely 5 degrees of latitude intervals<br />
from the capital city of <strong>The</strong>bes throughout the<br />
Mediterranean area as far north as the Baltic Sea.<br />
<strong>The</strong> shrines served, among other things, as a grid,<br />
housing electronic beacons, later called "Omphalus<br />
Stones". 169 (Footnote) <strong>The</strong> grid arrangement of Oracle sites<br />
can only be seen from miles above the <strong>Earth</strong>. <strong>The</strong><br />
original network of electronic communications beacons<br />
were disabled when the priesthood was dispersed, <strong>and</strong><br />
were replaced by carved stones.<br />
<strong>The</strong> symbol of the "Old Empire" priesthood is a Python,<br />
dragon or serpent. It was called the "earth-dragon" at<br />
99
Delphi, which is always represented in sculpture <strong>and</strong><br />
vase-paintings as a serpent.<br />
In Greek mythology the guardian of the Omphalus Stone at<br />
the temple at Delphi was an oracle whose name was<br />
Python, the serpent. 170 (Footnote) She was an IS-BE, who was<br />
conquered by a "god" named Apollo. He buried her under<br />
the Omphalos stone. This is a case of one "god" setting<br />
up his temple on the grave of another. This is a very<br />
accurate euphemism for <strong>The</strong> Domain Force that detected<br />
<strong>and</strong> disabled the "Old Empire" temple network on <strong>Earth</strong>.<br />
It was one of the fatal blows to the "Old Empire" Force<br />
in the solar system of <strong>Earth</strong>.<br />
559 BCE --<br />
<strong>The</strong> Comm<strong>and</strong>ing Officer of <strong>The</strong> Domain Battalion who was<br />
lost in 5,965 BCE was detected <strong>and</strong> located by a search<br />
party sent to <strong>Earth</strong> from <strong>The</strong> Domain Expeditionary Force.<br />
He was incarnated as Cyrus II of Persia during this<br />
time. 171 (Footnote)<br />
A unique system of organization was used by Cyrus II 172<br />
(Footnote) <strong>and</strong> the members of that Battalion who followed<br />
him from India through his progression of human lives on<br />
<strong>Earth</strong>. In part, it enabled them to build the largest<br />
empire in the history of the <strong>Earth</strong> to that date.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Domain Search Party who located him traveled around<br />
the <strong>Earth</strong> searching for the lost Battalion for several<br />
thous<strong>and</strong> years. <strong>The</strong> party consisted of 900 officers of<br />
<strong>The</strong> Domain, divided into teams of 300 each. One team<br />
searched the l<strong>and</strong>, another team search the oceans <strong>and</strong><br />
the third team searched the space surrounding <strong>Earth</strong>.<br />
<strong>The</strong>re are many reports made in various human<br />
civilizations concerning their activities, which humans<br />
did not underst<strong>and</strong>, of course.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Domain Search Party devised a wide variety of<br />
electronic detection devices needed to track the<br />
electronic signature or wavelength of each of the<br />
missing members of the Battalion. Some were used in<br />
space, others on l<strong>and</strong>, <strong>and</strong> special devices were invented<br />
to detect IS-BEs under water.<br />
One of these electronic detection devices is referred to<br />
as a "tree of life". 173 (Footnote) <strong>The</strong> device is literally a<br />
100
tool designed to detect the presence of life, which is<br />
an IS-BE. This was a large electronic screen generator<br />
designed to permeate wide areas. To the ancient humans<br />
on <strong>Earth</strong> it resembled a sort of tree, since is consists<br />
of an interwoven lattice of electronic field generators<br />
<strong>and</strong> receivers. <strong>The</strong> electronic field detects the<br />
presence of IS-BEs, whether the IS-BE is occupying a<br />
body, or if they are outside a body.<br />
A portable version of this detection device was carried<br />
by each of the members of <strong>The</strong> Domain Search Party.<br />
Stone carvings in Sumeria show winged beings using<br />
pinecone-shaped instruments to scan the bodies of human<br />
beings. <strong>The</strong>y are also shown carrying the power unit for<br />
the scanner which are depicted as stylized baskets or<br />
water buckets, being carried by eagle-headed, winged<br />
beings. 174 (Footnote)<br />
Members of the aerial unit of <strong>The</strong> Domain Search Party,<br />
led by Ahura Mazda, were often called "winged gods" in<br />
human interpretations. Throughout the Persian<br />
civilization there are a great many stone relief carving<br />
that depict winged space craft, that they called a<br />
"faravahar". 175 (Footnote)<br />
Members of the Aquatic Unit of <strong>The</strong> Domain Search Party<br />
were called "Oannes" by local humans. 176 (Footnote) Stone<br />
carvings of the so-called Oannes are shown wearing<br />
silver diving suits. <strong>The</strong>y lived in the sea <strong>and</strong> appeared<br />
to the human population to be men dressed to look like<br />
fish. Some members of the lost Battalion were found in<br />
the oceans inhabiting the bodies of dolphins or whales. 177<br />
(Footnote)<br />
On l<strong>and</strong>, <strong>The</strong> Domain Search Party members were referred<br />
to as "Annunaki" 178 (Footnote) by the Sumerians, <strong>and</strong><br />
"Nephilim", in the Bible. Of course, their true mission<br />
<strong>and</strong> activities were never disclosed to homo sapiens.<br />
<strong>The</strong>ir activities have been purposefully disguised.<br />
<strong>The</strong>refore, the human stories <strong>and</strong> legends about the<br />
Annunaki, <strong>and</strong> the other members of <strong>The</strong> Domain Search<br />
Party have not been understood <strong>and</strong> were badly<br />
misinterpreted.<br />
In the absence of complete <strong>and</strong> accurate data, anyone<br />
observing a phenomenon will assume or hypothesize<br />
explanations in an attempt to make sense of the data.<br />
101
<strong>The</strong>refore, although mythology <strong>and</strong> history may be based<br />
on factual events, they are likewise full of<br />
misunderstood <strong>and</strong> misinterpreted evaluations of the<br />
data, <strong>and</strong> embellished with assumptions, theories <strong>and</strong><br />
hypotheses which are false.<br />
<strong>The</strong> space unit of <strong>The</strong> Domain Expeditionary Force are<br />
shown flying in a "Winged-Disc". 179 (Footnote) This is an<br />
allusion to the spiritual power of the IS-BEs, as well<br />
as to the space craft used by <strong>The</strong> Domain Search Party.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Comm<strong>and</strong>er of the lost Battalion, as Cyrus II, was an<br />
IS-BE who was regarded as a messiah on <strong>Earth</strong> by both the<br />
Jews, <strong>and</strong> the Muslims. In less than 50 years he<br />
established a highly ethical, <strong>and</strong> humanitarian<br />
philosophy which pervaded all of Western Civilization.<br />
180 (Footnote)<br />
His territorial conquests, organization of people <strong>and</strong><br />
monumental building projects were unprecedented before<br />
or since. Such sweeping accomplishments in a short<br />
period of time could only have been achieved by a leader<br />
<strong>and</strong> a team of trained officers, pilots, engineers <strong>and</strong><br />
crew members of a unit of <strong>The</strong> Domain, acting as a team,<br />
who had been trained <strong>and</strong> worked together for thous<strong>and</strong>s<br />
of years.<br />
Although we have discovered the location of many of the<br />
IS-BEs in the lost Battalion, <strong>The</strong> Domain has been unable<br />
to restore their memory <strong>and</strong> return them to active duty<br />
as yet.<br />
Of course we cannot transport IS-BEs who are inhabiting<br />
biological bodies to the space stations of <strong>The</strong> Domain<br />
since there is no oxygen in our space craft. Also we do<br />
not maintain life support facilities for biological<br />
entities there. Our only hope has been to locate <strong>and</strong><br />
rekindle the awareness, memory <strong>and</strong> identity of the IS-<br />
BEs of the Lost Battalion. One day they will be capable<br />
of rejoining us.<br />
200 BCE --<br />
<strong>The</strong> last remnant of the "Old Empire" pyramid<br />
civilization is at "Teotihuacán" 181 (Footnote). <strong>The</strong> Aztec<br />
name means “place of the gods” or “where men were<br />
transformed into gods”. Like the astronomical<br />
102
configuration of the Giza pyramids in Egypt, the entire<br />
complex is a precise scale-model of the solar system<br />
that accurately reflects the orbital distances of the<br />
inner planets, the asteroid belt, Jupiter, Saturn,<br />
Uranus, Neptune, <strong>and</strong> Pluto. Since the planet Uranus had<br />
only been "discovered" with modern <strong>Earth</strong> telescopes in<br />
1787, <strong>and</strong> Pluto not until 1930, it is apparent that the<br />
builders had information from "other sources".<br />
A common element of the Pyramid Civilizations around the<br />
<strong>Earth</strong> is the constant use of the image of the snake,<br />
dragon, or serpent. This is because the beings who<br />
planted these civilizations here want to create an<br />
illusion that the "gods" are reptilian. This is also a<br />
part of an illusion designed to perpetuate amnesia. <strong>The</strong><br />
beings who placed false civilizations on <strong>Earth</strong> are IS-<br />
BEs, just like you. Many of the biological bodies<br />
inhabited by IS-BEs in the "Old Empire" are very similar<br />
in appearance to the bodies on <strong>Earth</strong>. <strong>The</strong> "gods" are<br />
not reptiles, although they often behave like snakes.<br />
1,034 - 1,124 AD --<br />
<strong>The</strong> entire Arab world was enslaved by one man: Hasan<br />
ibn-al-Sabbah 182 (Footnote) , the Old Man of the Mountain. He<br />
established the Hashshashin who operated a part of<br />
Mohammedanism which controlled by terror <strong>and</strong> fear much<br />
of India, Asia Minor <strong>and</strong> most of the Mediterranean<br />
Basin. <strong>The</strong>y became a priesthood that used an extremely<br />
effective mind-control mechanism <strong>and</strong> extortion tool that<br />
enabled the "Assassins" to control the civilized world<br />
for several hundred years.<br />
<strong>The</strong>ir method was simple. Young men were kidnapped <strong>and</strong><br />
knocked unconscious with hashish. <strong>The</strong>y were taken to a<br />
garden filled with beautiful black-eyed houris in a<br />
harem decorated with rivers of milk <strong>and</strong> honey. <strong>The</strong><br />
young men were told that they were in paradise. <strong>The</strong>y<br />
were promised they could return <strong>and</strong> live there forever<br />
if they sacrificed themselves as an assassin of whomever<br />
they were comm<strong>and</strong>ed to kill. <strong>The</strong> men were knocked out<br />
again, <strong>and</strong> shoved out into the world to carry out the<br />
assassination mission.<br />
Meanwhile, the Old Man of the Mountain sent a messenger<br />
to the caliph or, whatever wealthy ruler from whom they<br />
dem<strong>and</strong>ed payment, dem<strong>and</strong>ing camel-loads of gold, spices,<br />
103
incense or other valuables. If payment did not arrive<br />
on time, the assassin would be sent to kill the<br />
offending party. <strong>The</strong>re was virtually no defense against<br />
the unknown assailant who wanted nothing more than to<br />
carry out his mission, be killed <strong>and</strong> return to "heaven".<br />
This is a very crude example of how simple <strong>and</strong> effective<br />
a brainwashing <strong>and</strong> mind-control operation can be when it<br />
is used skillfully, <strong>and</strong> forcefully. It is a small scale<br />
demonstration of how the amnesia mind-control operation<br />
is used against the entire IS-BE population of <strong>Earth</strong> by<br />
the "Old Empire".<br />
1119 AD --<br />
<strong>The</strong> Knights Templar 183 (Footnote) was established as a<br />
Christian military unit after the First Crusade but<br />
quickly transformed into the basis for the international<br />
banking system to accumulate money to conduct the agenda<br />
of operatives for vestiges of the "Old Empire" on <strong>Earth</strong>.<br />
1135 - 1230 AD --<br />
<strong>The</strong> Domain Expeditionary Force completed the<br />
annihilation of the remaining remnants of the "Old<br />
Empire" space fleet operating in the solar system around<br />
<strong>Earth</strong>. Unfortunately, their long established thought<br />
control operation remains largely intact.<br />
1307 AD --<br />
<strong>The</strong> Knights Templar was disb<strong>and</strong>ed by King Philip IV of<br />
France, who was deeply in debt to the Order. 184 (Footnote) He<br />
pressured Pope Clement V to condemn the Order's members,<br />
have them arrested, tortured them into giving false<br />
confessions, <strong>and</strong> burned them at the stake in an effort<br />
to erase his debt by seizing all of their wealth.<br />
A majority of the Templars fled to Switzerl<strong>and</strong> where<br />
they established an international banking system 185<br />
(Footnote) which secretly controls the economy of <strong>Earth</strong>.<br />
"Old Empire" operatives act as an unseen influence on<br />
international bankers. 186 (Footnote) <strong>The</strong> banks are operated<br />
covertly as a on-combatant provocateur to covertly<br />
promote <strong>and</strong> finance weapons <strong>and</strong> warfare between the<br />
nations of <strong>Earth</strong>. Warfare is an internal mechanism of<br />
104
control over the inmate population. 187 (Footnote)<br />
<strong>The</strong> purpose of the senseless genocide <strong>and</strong> carnage of<br />
wars financed by these international banks is to prevent<br />
the IS-BEs of <strong>Earth</strong> from sharing open communication,<br />
cooperate together in activities that might enable IS-<br />
BEs to prosper, become enlightened, <strong>and</strong> escape their<br />
imprisonment."<br />

A Lesson In Biology<br />
(MATILDA O'DONNELL MACELROY PERSONAL NOTE)<br />
"My debrief was also tape recorded as a back up <strong>and</strong> to add clarification to the<br />
stenographic notes. I debriefed immediately after my interview so that everything<br />
that was said was still fresh in my mind.<br />
When I recounted these stories to the gallery stenographer I was still reeling a bit.<br />
<strong>The</strong> perspective on <strong>Earth</strong> history from the point of view of <strong>The</strong> Domain is very<br />
strange, to say the least. I wasn't sure if my uncomfortable feeling came from being<br />
dis-oriented, or if it came from being re-oriented. Either way, I felt unsteady <strong>and</strong><br />
confused. Yet, at the same time, there was a ring of truth to it. I was elated <strong>and</strong><br />
incredulous at the same time!<br />
<strong>The</strong> stenographer looked askance at me more than a few times as she recorded the<br />
"history lesson" I passed on to her. I'm sure she thought I was losing my mind!<br />
Maybe she was right. However, if my mind had been filled with hypnotic<br />
suggestions <strong>and</strong> false memories by the "Old Empire", as Airl suggested, perhaps<br />
losing my mind would be a good idea!<br />
I didn't have much time to ponder my own, personal thoughts about these things at<br />
the time. It was my duty to get all of the information I could from Airl <strong>and</strong> pass it on<br />
to the stenographer as soon as Airl was finished. My job was not to analyze the<br />
information, just report it as accurately as possible. <strong>The</strong> analysis would be left to the<br />
men in the gallery, or whomever else was receiving copies of the transcripts.<br />
I also delivered a list of books <strong>and</strong> materials requested by Airl to the agent in the<br />
gallery room so these could be gathered <strong>and</strong> delivered to Airl. Each night after I left<br />
Airl, she spent the rest of the night reading or "scanning" the materials which had<br />
been delivered to her. <strong>The</strong> members of the gallery each received a transcript of the<br />
stenographic dictation to study, each looking for information that was of interest to<br />
them. In the morning after breakfast I reported back to the interview room to<br />
continue my interviews or "lessons" with Airl."<br />

(OFFICIAL TRANSCRIPT OF <strong>INTERVIEW</strong>)<br />
TOP SECRET<br />
Official Transcript of the U.S. Army Air Force<br />
Roswell Army Air Field, 509th Bomb Group<br />
SUBJECT: <strong>ALIEN</strong> <strong>INTERVIEW</strong>, 28. 7. 1947, 1st Session<br />
"<strong>The</strong> origins of this universe <strong>and</strong> life on <strong>Earth</strong>, as<br />
discussed in the textbooks I have read, are very<br />
inaccurate. Since you serve your government as a<br />
medical personnel, your duties require that you<br />
underst<strong>and</strong> biological entities. So, I am sure that you<br />
will appreciate the value of the material I will share<br />
with you today.<br />
<strong>The</strong> text of books I have been given on subjects related<br />
to the function of life forms contain information that<br />
is based on false memories, inaccurate observation,<br />
missing data, unproven theories, <strong>and</strong> superstition.<br />
For example, just a few hundred years ago your<br />
physicians practiced bloodletting 188 (Footnote) as a means to<br />
release supposed ill-humors from the body in an attempt<br />
to relieve or heal a wide variety of physical <strong>and</strong> mental<br />
afflictions. Although this has been corrected somewhat,<br />
many barbarisms are still being practiced in the name of<br />
medical science.<br />
In addition to the application of incorrect theories<br />
concerning biological engineering, many primary errors<br />
that <strong>Earth</strong> scientists make are the result of an<br />
ignorance of the nature <strong>and</strong> relative importance of IS-<br />
BEs as the source of energy <strong>and</strong> intelligence which<br />
animate every life form.<br />
Although it is not a priority of <strong>The</strong> Domain to intervene<br />
in the affairs of <strong>Earth</strong>, <strong>The</strong> Domain Communications<br />
Office has authorized me to provide you with some<br />
information in an effort to provide a more accurate <strong>and</strong><br />
complete underst<strong>and</strong>ing of these things <strong>and</strong> thereby<br />
enable you to discover more effective solutions to the<br />
unique problems you face on <strong>Earth</strong>.<br />
<strong>The</strong> correct information about the origins of biological<br />
entities has been erased from your mind, as well as from<br />
107
the minds of your mentors. In order to help you regain<br />
your own memory, I will share with you some factual<br />
material concerning the origin of biological entities.<br />
I asked Airl if she was referring to the subject of<br />
evolution. Airl said, "No, not exactly".<br />
You will find "evolution" mentioned in the ancient Vedic<br />
Hymns. 189 (Footnote) <strong>The</strong> Vedic texts are like folk tales or<br />
common wisdoms <strong>and</strong> superstitions gathered throughout the<br />
systems of <strong>The</strong> Domain. <strong>The</strong>se were compiled into verses,<br />
like a book of rhymes. For every statement of truth,<br />
the verses contain as many half-truths, reversals of<br />
truth <strong>and</strong> fanciful imaginings, blended without<br />
qualification or distinction.<br />
<strong>The</strong> theory of evolution assumes that the motivational<br />
source of energy that animates every life form does not<br />
exist. It assumes that an inanimate object or a<br />
chemical concoction can suddenly become "alive" or<br />
animate accidentally or spontaneously. Or, perhaps an<br />
electrical discharge into a pool of chemical ooze will<br />
magically spawn a self-animated entity.<br />
<strong>The</strong>re is no evidence whatsoever that this is true,<br />
simply because it is not true. Dr. Frankenstein did not<br />
really resurrect the dead into a marauding monster,<br />
except in the imagination of the IS-BE who wrote a<br />
fictitious story one dark <strong>and</strong> stormy night. 190 (Footnote)<br />
No Western scientist ever stopped to consider who, what,<br />
where, when or how this animation happens. Complete<br />
ignorance, denial or unawareness of the spirit as the<br />
source of life force required to animate inanimate<br />
objects or cellular tissue is the sole cause of failures<br />
in Western medicine.<br />
In addition, evolution does not occur accidentally. It<br />
requires a great deal of technology which must be<br />
manipulated under the careful supervision of IS-BEs.<br />
Very simple examples are seen in the modification of<br />
farm animals or in the breeding of dogs. However, the<br />
notion that human biological organisms evolved naturally<br />
from earlier ape-like forms is incorrect. No physical<br />
evidence will ever be uncovered to substantiate the<br />
notion that modern humanoid bodies evolved on this<br />
planet.<br />
108
<strong>The</strong> reason is simple: the idea that human bodies evolved<br />
spontaneously from the primordial ooze of chemical<br />
interactivity in the dim mists of time is nothing more<br />
than a hypnotic lie instilled by the amnesia operation<br />
to prevent your recollection of the true origins of<br />
Mankind. Factually, humanoid bodies have existed in<br />
various forms throughout the universe for trillions of<br />
years.<br />
This was compounded by the fact that <strong>The</strong> Vedic Hymns<br />
were brought to <strong>Earth</strong> 8,200 years ago by <strong>The</strong> Domain<br />
Expeditionary Force. While they were based in the<br />
Himalaya Mountains, the verses were taught to some of<br />
the local humans who memorized them. However, I should<br />
note that this was not an authorized activity for the<br />
crew of <strong>The</strong> Domain installation, although I am sure it<br />
seemed like an innocent diversion for them at the time.<br />
<strong>The</strong> verses were passed along verbally from one<br />
generation to the next for thous<strong>and</strong>s of years in the<br />
foothills <strong>and</strong> eventually spread throughout India. No<br />
one in <strong>The</strong> Domain credits any of the material in the<br />
Vedic Hymns as factual material, any more than you would<br />
use "Grimm's Fairy Tales" 191 (Footnote) as a guide for<br />
rearing children. However, on a planet where all of the<br />
IS-BEs have had their memory erased, one can underst<strong>and</strong><br />
how these tales <strong>and</strong> fantasies could be taken seriously.<br />
Unfortunately, the humans who learned the Vedic verses<br />
passed them along to others saying that they came from<br />
"the gods". Eventually, the content of the verses were<br />
adopted verbatim as "truth". <strong>The</strong> euphemistic <strong>and</strong><br />
metaphorical content of the Veda were accepted <strong>and</strong><br />
practiced as dogmatic fact. <strong>The</strong> philosophy of the<br />
verses were ignored <strong>and</strong> the verses became the genesis of<br />
nearly every religion practice on the planet, especially<br />
Hinduism. 192 (Footnote)<br />
As an officer, pilot <strong>and</strong> engineer of <strong>The</strong> Domain, I must<br />
always assume a very pragmatic point of view. I could<br />
not be effective or accomplish my missions if I were to<br />
use philosophical dogma or rhetoric as my operations<br />
manual. <strong>The</strong>refore, our discussion of history is based<br />
on actual events that occurred long before any IS-BEs<br />
arrived on <strong>Earth</strong>, <strong>and</strong> long before the "Old Empire” came<br />
109
into power. I can relate part of this history from<br />
personal experience:<br />
Many billions of years ago I was a member of a very<br />
large biological laboratory in a galaxy far from this<br />
one. It was called the "Arcadia Regeneration Company".<br />
193 (Footnote) I was a biological engineer working with a<br />
large staff of technicians. It was our business to<br />
manufacture <strong>and</strong> supply new life forms to uninhabited<br />
planets. <strong>The</strong>re were millions of star systems with<br />
millions of inhabitable planets in the region at that<br />
time.<br />
<strong>The</strong>re were many other biological laboratory companies at<br />
that time also. Each of them specialized in producing<br />
different kinds of life forms, depending on the "class"<br />
of the planet being populated. Over a long span of time<br />
these laboratories developed a vast catalogue of species<br />
throughout the galaxies. <strong>The</strong> majority of basic genetic<br />
material is common to all species of life. 194 (Footnote)<br />
<strong>The</strong>refore, most of their work was concerned with<br />
manipulating alterations of the basic genetic pattern to<br />
produce variations of life forms that would be suitable<br />
inhabitants for various planetary classes.<br />
<strong>The</strong> "Arcadia Regeneration Company" specialized in<br />
mammals for forested areas <strong>and</strong> birds for tropical<br />
regions. Our marketing staff negotiated contracts with<br />
various planetary governments <strong>and</strong> independent buyers<br />
from all over the universe. <strong>The</strong> technicians created<br />
animals that were compatible with the variations in<br />
climate, atmospheric <strong>and</strong> terrestrial density <strong>and</strong><br />
chemical content. In addition we were paid to integrate<br />
our specimens with biological organisms engineered by<br />
other companies already living on a planet.<br />
In order to do this our staff was in communication with<br />
other companies who created life forms. <strong>The</strong>re were<br />
industry trade shows, publications <strong>and</strong> a variety of<br />
other information supplied through an association that<br />
coordinated related projects.<br />
As you can imagine, our research required a great deal<br />
of interstellar travel to conduct planetary surveys.<br />
This is when I learned my skills as a pilot. <strong>The</strong> data<br />
gathered was accumulated in huge computer databases <strong>and</strong><br />
evaluated by biological engineers. 195 (Footnote)<br />
110
A computer is an electronic device that serves as an<br />
artificial "brain" or complex calculating machine. It<br />
is capable of storing information, making computations,<br />
solving problems <strong>and</strong> performing mechanical functions.<br />
In most of the galactic systems of the universe, very<br />
large computers are commonly used to run the routine<br />
administration, mechanical services <strong>and</strong> maintenance<br />
activities of an entire planet or planetary system.<br />
Based on the survey data gathered, designs <strong>and</strong> artistic<br />
renderings were made for new creatures. Some designs<br />
were sold to the highest bidder. Other life forms were<br />
created to meet the customized requests of our clients.<br />
<strong>The</strong> design <strong>and</strong> technical specifications were passed<br />
along an assembly line through a series of cellular,<br />
chemical, <strong>and</strong> mechanical engineers to solve the various<br />
problems. It was their job to integrate all of the<br />
component factors into a workable, functional <strong>and</strong><br />
aesthetic finished product.<br />
Prototypes of these creatures were then produced <strong>and</strong><br />
tested in artificially created environments.<br />
Imperfections were worked out, modifications made <strong>and</strong><br />
eventually the new life form was "endowed" or "animated"<br />
with a life force or spiritual energy before being<br />
introduced into the actual planetary environment for<br />
final testing.<br />
After a new life form was introduced, we monitored the<br />
interaction of these biological organisms with the<br />
planetary environment <strong>and</strong> with other indigenous<br />
life-forms. Conflicts resulting from the interaction<br />
between incompatible organisms were resolved through<br />
negotiation between ourselves <strong>and</strong> other companies. <strong>The</strong><br />
negotiations usually resulted in compromises requiring<br />
further modification to our creatures or to theirs or<br />
both. This is part of a science or art you call<br />
"Eugenics". 196 (Footnote)<br />
In some cases changes were made in the planetary<br />
environment, but not often, as planet building is much<br />
more complex than making changes to an individual life<br />
form.<br />
111
Coincidentally, a friend <strong>and</strong> engineer with whom I used<br />
to work with at the Arcadia Regeneration Company -- a<br />
long time after I left the company -- told me that one<br />
of the projects they contracted to do, in more recent<br />
times, was to deliver life forms to <strong>Earth</strong> to replenish<br />
them after a war in this region of the galaxy devastated<br />
most of the life on the planets in this region of space.<br />
This would have been about seventy million years ago.<br />
<strong>The</strong> skill required to modify the planet into an<br />
ecologically interactive environment that will support<br />
billions of diverse species was an immense undertaking.<br />
Specialized consultants from nearly every biotechnology<br />
company in the galaxy were brought in to help with the<br />
project.<br />
What you see now on <strong>Earth</strong> is the huge variety of life<br />
forms left behind. Your scientists believe that the<br />
fallacious "theory of evolution" is an explanation for<br />
the existence of all the life forms here. <strong>The</strong> truth is<br />
that all life forms on this <strong>and</strong> any other planet in this<br />
universe were created by companies like ours.<br />
How else can you explain the millions of completely<br />
divergent <strong>and</strong> unrelated species of life on the l<strong>and</strong> <strong>and</strong><br />
in the oceans of this planet? How else can you explain<br />
the source of spiritual animation which defines every<br />
living creature? To say it is the work of "god", is far<br />
too broad. Every IS-BE has many names <strong>and</strong> faces in many<br />
times <strong>and</strong> places. Every IS-BE is a god. When they<br />
inhabit a physical object they are the source of Life.<br />
For example, there are millions of species 197 (Footnote) of<br />
insects. About 350,000 of these are species of beetles.<br />
198 (Footnote) <strong>The</strong>re may be as many as 100 million species of<br />
life forms on <strong>Earth</strong> at any given time. In addition,<br />
there are many times more extinct species of life on<br />
<strong>Earth</strong> than there are living life forms. Some of these<br />
will be rediscovered in the fossil or geological records<br />
of <strong>Earth</strong>.<br />
<strong>The</strong> current "theory of evolution" of life forms on <strong>Earth</strong><br />
does not consider the phenomena of biological diversity.<br />
Evolution by natural selection is science fiction. One<br />
species does not accidentally, or r<strong>and</strong>omly evolve to<br />
become another species, as the <strong>Earth</strong> textbooks indicate,<br />
112
without manipulation of genetic material by an IS-BE. 199<br />
(Footnote)<br />
A simple example of IS-BE intervention is the selective<br />
breeding of a species 200 (Footnote) on <strong>Earth</strong>. Within the past<br />
few hundred years several hundred dog breeds <strong>and</strong><br />
hundreds of varieties of pigeons <strong>and</strong> dozens of Koi fish<br />
have been "evolved" in just a few years, beginning with<br />
only one original breed. Without active intervention by<br />
IS-BEs, biological organisms rarely change.<br />
<strong>The</strong> development of an animal like the 'duck-billed<br />
platypus' required a lot of very clever engineering to<br />
combine the body of a beaver with the bill of a duck <strong>and</strong><br />
make a mammal that lays eggs. Undoubtedly, some wealthy<br />
client placed a "special order" for it as a gift or<br />
curious amusement. I am sure the laboratory of some<br />
biotechnical company worked on it for years to make it a<br />
self-replicating life form!<br />
<strong>The</strong> notion that the creation of any life form could have<br />
resulted from a coincidental chemical interaction<br />
moldering up from some primordial ooze is beyond<br />
absurdity! Factually, some organisms on <strong>Earth</strong>, such as<br />
Proteobacteria, 201 (Footnote) are modifications of a Phylum 202<br />
(Footnote) designed primarily for "Star Type 3, Class C"<br />
planets. In other words, <strong>The</strong> Domain designation for a<br />
planet with an anaerobic atmosphere nearest a large,<br />
intensely hot blue star, 203 (Footnote) such as those in the<br />
constellation of Orion's Belt in this galaxy.<br />
Creating life forms is very complex, highly technical<br />
work for IS-BEs who specialize in this field. Genetic<br />
anomalies are very baffling to <strong>Earth</strong> biologists who have<br />
had their memory erased. Unfortunately, the false<br />
memory implantations of the "Old Empire" prevent <strong>Earth</strong><br />
scientists from observing obvious anomalies.<br />
<strong>The</strong> greatest technical challenge of biological organisms<br />
was the invention of self-regeneration, or sexual<br />
reproduction. It was invented as the solution to the<br />
problem of having to continually manufacture replacement<br />
creatures for those that had been destroyed <strong>and</strong> eaten by<br />
other creatures. Planetary governments did not want to<br />
keep buying replacement animals.<br />
113
<strong>The</strong> idea was contrived trillions of years ago as a<br />
result of a conference held to resolve arguments between<br />
the disputing vested interests within the biotechnology<br />
industry. <strong>The</strong> infamous "Council of Yuhmi-Krum" was<br />
responsible for coordinating creature production.<br />
204 (Footnote)<br />
A compromise was reached, after certain members of the<br />
Council were strategically bribed or murdered, to author<br />
an agreement which resulted in the biological phenomenon<br />
which we now call the "food chain".<br />
<strong>The</strong> idea that a creature would need to consume the body<br />
of another life form as an energy source was offered as<br />
a solution by one of the biggest companies in the<br />
biological engineering business. <strong>The</strong>y specialized in<br />
creating insects <strong>and</strong> flowering plants.<br />
<strong>The</strong> connection between the two is obvious. Nearly every<br />
flowering plant requires a symbiotic relationship with<br />
an insect in order to propagate. <strong>The</strong> reason is obvious:<br />
both the bugs <strong>and</strong> the flowers were created by the same<br />
company. Unfortunately, this same company also had a<br />
division which created parasites <strong>and</strong> bacteria.<br />
<strong>The</strong> name of the company roughly translated into English<br />
would be "Bugs & Blossoms" . <strong>The</strong>y wanted to justify the<br />
fact that the only valid purpose of the parasitic<br />
creatures they manufactured was to aid the decomposition<br />
of organic material. <strong>The</strong>re was a very limited market<br />
for such creatures at that time.<br />
In order to exp<strong>and</strong> their business they hired a big<br />
public relations firm <strong>and</strong> a powerful group of political<br />
lobbyists to glorify the idea that life forms should<br />
feed from other life forms. <strong>The</strong>y invented a "scientific<br />
theory" to use as a promotion gimmick. <strong>The</strong> theory was<br />
that all creatures needed to have "food" as a source of<br />
energy. Before that, none of the life forms being<br />
manufactured required any external energy. Animals did<br />
not eat other animals for food, but consumed sunlight,<br />
minerals or vegetable matter only.<br />
Of course, "Bugs & Blossoms" went into the business of<br />
designing <strong>and</strong> manufacturing carnivores. Before long, so<br />
many animals were being eaten as food that the problem<br />
of replenishing them became very difficult. As a<br />
114
'solution', "Bugs & Blossoms" proposed, with the help of<br />
some strategically placed bribes in high places, that<br />
other companies begin using 'sexual reproduction' as the<br />
basis for replenishing life-forms. "Bugs & Blossoms"<br />
was the first company to develop blueprints for sexual<br />
reproduction, of course.<br />
As expected, the patent licenses for the biological<br />
engineering process 205 (Footnote) required to implant<br />
stimulus-response mating, cellular division <strong>and</strong> preprogrammed<br />
growth patterns for self-regenerating animals<br />
were owned by "Bugs & Blossoms" too.<br />
Through the next few million years laws were passed that<br />
required that these programs be purchased by the other<br />
biological technology companies. <strong>The</strong>se were required to<br />
be imprinted into the cellular design of all existing<br />
life-forms. It became a very expensive undertaking for<br />
other biotechnology companies to make such an awkward,<br />
<strong>and</strong> impractical idea work.<br />
This led to the corruption <strong>and</strong> downfall of the entire<br />
industry. Ultimately, the 'food <strong>and</strong> sex' idea<br />
completely ruined the bio-technology industry, including<br />
"Bugs & Blossoms". <strong>The</strong> entire industry faded away as<br />
the market for manufactured life forms disappeared.<br />
Consequently, when a species became extinct, there is no<br />
way to replace them because the technology of creating<br />
new life forms has been lost. Obviously, none of this<br />
technology was ever known on <strong>Earth</strong>, <strong>and</strong> probably never<br />
will be.<br />
<strong>The</strong>re are still computer files on some planets far from<br />
here which record the procedures for biological<br />
engineering. Possibly the laboratories <strong>and</strong> computers<br />
still exist somewhere. However, there is no one around<br />
doing anything with them. <strong>The</strong>refore, you can underst<strong>and</strong><br />
why it is so important for <strong>The</strong> Domain to protect the<br />
dwindling number of creatures left on <strong>Earth</strong>.<br />
<strong>The</strong> core concept behind 'sexual reproduction' technology<br />
was the invention of a chemical/electronic interaction<br />
called "cyclical stimulus-response generators". 206 (Footnote)<br />
This is an programmed genetic mechanism which causes a<br />
seemingly spontaneous, recurring impulse to reproduce.<br />
<strong>The</strong> same technique was later adapted <strong>and</strong> applied to<br />
biological flesh bodies, including Homo Sapiens.<br />
115
Another important mechanism used in the reproductive<br />
process, especially with Homo Sapiens type bodies, is<br />
the implantation of a "chemical-electrical trigger"<br />
mechanism 207 (Footnote) in the body. <strong>The</strong> "trigger" which<br />
attracts IS-BEs to inhabit a human body, or any kind of<br />
"flesh body", is the use of an artificially imprinted<br />
electronic wave which uses "aesthetic pain" to attract<br />
the IS-BE.<br />
Every trap in the universe, including those used to<br />
capture IS-BEs who remain free, is "baited" with an<br />
aesthetic electronic wave. <strong>The</strong> sensations caused by the<br />
aesthetic wavelength are more attractive to an IS-BE<br />
than any other sensation. When the electronic waves of<br />
pain <strong>and</strong> beauty are combined together, this causes the<br />
IS-BE to get "stuck" in the body.<br />
<strong>The</strong> "reproductive trigger" used for lesser life forms,<br />
such as cattle <strong>and</strong> other mammals, is triggered by<br />
chemicals emitted from the scent gl<strong>and</strong>s, combined with<br />
reproductive chemical-electrical impulses stimulated by<br />
testosterone, or estrogen. 208 (Footnote)<br />
<strong>The</strong>se are also interactive with nutrition levels which<br />
cause the life form to reproduce more when deprived of<br />
food sources. Starvation promoted reproductive activity<br />
as a means of perpetuating survival through future<br />
regenerations, when the current organism fails to<br />
survive. <strong>The</strong>se fundamental principles have been applied<br />
throughout all species of life.<br />
<strong>The</strong> debilitating impact <strong>and</strong> addiction to the "sexual<br />
aesthetic-pain" electronic wave 209 (Footnote) is the reason<br />
that the ruling class of <strong>The</strong> Domain do not inhabit flesh<br />
bodies. This is also why officers of <strong>The</strong> Domain Forces<br />
only use doll bodies. This wave has proven to be the<br />
most effective trapping device ever created in the<br />
history of the universe, as far as I know.<br />
<strong>The</strong> civilizations of <strong>The</strong> Domain <strong>and</strong> the "Old Empire"<br />
both depend on this device to "recruit" <strong>and</strong> maintain a<br />
work force of IS-BEs who inhabit flesh bodies on planets<br />
<strong>and</strong> installations. <strong>The</strong>se IS-BEs are the "working class"<br />
beings who do all of the slavish, manual, undesirable<br />
work on planets.<br />
116
As I mentioned, there is a very highly regimented <strong>and</strong><br />
fixed hierarchy or "class system" for all IS-BEs<br />
throughout the "Old Empire", <strong>and</strong> <strong>The</strong> Domain, as follows:<br />
<strong>The</strong> highest class are "free" IS-BEs. That is, they are<br />
not restricted to the use of any type of body <strong>and</strong> may<br />
come <strong>and</strong> go at will, provided that they do not destroy<br />
or interfere with the social, economic or political<br />
structure.<br />
Below this class are many strata of "limited" IS-BEs who<br />
may or may not use a body from time to time.<br />
Limitations are imposed on each IS-BE regarding range of<br />
power, ability <strong>and</strong> mobility they can exercise.<br />
Below these are the "doll body" classes, to which I<br />
belong. Nearly all space officers <strong>and</strong> crew members of<br />
space craft are required to travel through intergalactic<br />
space. <strong>The</strong>refore, they are each equipped with a body<br />
manufactured from light weight, durable materials.<br />
Various body types have been designed to facilitate<br />
specialized functions. Some bodies have accessories,<br />
such as interchangeable tools or apparatus for<br />
activities such as maintenance, mining, chemical<br />
management, navigation, <strong>and</strong> so forth. <strong>The</strong>re are many<br />
gradations of this body type which also serve as an<br />
"insignia" of rank.<br />
Below these are the soldier class. <strong>The</strong> soldiers are<br />
equipped with a myriad of weapons, <strong>and</strong> specialized<br />
armaments designed to detect, combat <strong>and</strong> overwhelm any<br />
imaginable foe. Some soldiers are issued mechanical<br />
bodies. Most soldiers are merely remote controlled<br />
robots with no class designation.<br />
<strong>The</strong> lower classes are limited to "flesh bodies". Of<br />
course, it is not possible for these to travel through<br />
space for obvious reasons. Fundamentally, flesh bodies<br />
are far too fragile to endure the stresses of gravity,<br />
temperature extremes, radiation exposure, atmospheric<br />
chemicals <strong>and</strong> the vacuum of space. <strong>The</strong>re are also the<br />
obvious logistical inconveniences of food, defecation,<br />
sleep, atmospheric elements, <strong>and</strong> air pressure required<br />
by flesh bodies, that doll bodies do not require.<br />
Most flesh bodies will suffocate in only a few minutes<br />
without a specific combination of atmospheric chemicals.<br />
117
After 2 or 3 days the bacteria which live internally <strong>and</strong><br />
externally on the body cause severe odors to be emitted.<br />
Odors of any kind are not acceptable in a space vessel.<br />
Flesh can tolerate only a very limited spectrum of<br />
temperatures, whereas in space the contrast of<br />
temperatures may vary hundreds of degrees within<br />
seconds. Of course flesh bodies are utterly useless for<br />
military duty. A single shot from a h<strong>and</strong>-held,<br />
electronic blast gun instantly turns a flesh body into a<br />
noxious vapor cloud.<br />
IS-BEs who inhabit flesh bodies have lost much of their<br />
native ability <strong>and</strong> power. Although it is theoretically<br />
possible to regain or rehabilitate these abilities, no<br />
practical means has been discovered or authorized by <strong>The</strong><br />
Domain.<br />
Even though space craft of <strong>The</strong> Domain travel trillions<br />
of "light years" in a single day, 210 (Footnote) the time<br />
required to traverse the space between galaxies is<br />
significant, not to mention the length of time to<br />
complete just one set of mission orders, which may<br />
require thous<strong>and</strong>s of years. Biological flesh bodies<br />
live for only a very short time -- only 60 to 150 years,<br />
at most -- whereas doll bodies can be re-used <strong>and</strong><br />
repaired almost indefinitely.<br />
<strong>The</strong> first development of biological bodies began in this<br />
universe about seventy-four trillion years ago. It<br />
rapidly became a fad for IS-BEs to create <strong>and</strong> inhabit<br />
various types of bodies for an assortment of nefarious<br />
reasons: especially for amusement, this is to<br />
experience various physical sensations vicariously<br />
through the body.<br />
Since that time there has been a continuing "deevolution"<br />
in the relationship of IS-BEs to bodies. As<br />
IS-BEs continued to play around with these bodies,<br />
certain tricks were introduced to cause IS-BEs to get<br />
trapped inside a body so they were unable to leave<br />
again.<br />
This was done primarily by making bodies that appeared<br />
sturdy, but were actually very fragile. An IS-BE, using<br />
their natural power to create energy, accidentally<br />
injured a body when contacting it. <strong>The</strong> IS-BE was<br />
118
emorseful about having injured this fragile body. <strong>The</strong><br />
next time they encountered a body they began to be<br />
"careful" with them. In so doing, the IS-BE would<br />
withdraw or minimize their own power so as not to injure<br />
the body. A very long <strong>and</strong> treacherous history of this<br />
kind of trickery, combined with similar misadventures<br />
eventually resulted in a large number of IS-BEs becoming<br />
permanently trapped in bodies.<br />
Of course this became a profitable enterprise for some<br />
IS-BEs who took advantage of this situation to make<br />
slaves of others. <strong>The</strong> resulting enslavement progressed<br />
over trillions of years, <strong>and</strong> continues today.<br />
Ultimately the dwindling ability of IS-BEs to maintain a<br />
personal state of operational freedom <strong>and</strong> ability to<br />
create energy resulted in the vast <strong>and</strong> carefully guarded<br />
hierarchy or class system. Using bodies as a symbol of<br />
each class is used throughout the "Old Empire", as well<br />
as <strong>The</strong> Domain.<br />
<strong>The</strong> vast majority of IS-BEs throughout the galaxies of<br />
this universe inhabit some form of flesh body. <strong>The</strong><br />
structure, appearance, operation <strong>and</strong> habitat of these<br />
bodies vary according to the gravity, atmosphere, <strong>and</strong><br />
climatic conditions of the planet they inhabit. Body<br />
types are predetermined largely by the type <strong>and</strong> size of<br />
the star around which the planet revolves, the distance<br />
from the star, the geological, as well as the<br />
atmospheric components of the planet.<br />
On the average, these stars <strong>and</strong> planets fall into<br />
gradients of classification which are fairly st<strong>and</strong>ard<br />
throughout the universe. For example, <strong>Earth</strong> is<br />
identified, roughly, as a "Sun Type 12, Class 7 planet".<br />
That is a heavy gravity, nitrogen/oxygen atmosphere<br />
planet, 211 (Footnote) with biological life-forms, in<br />
proximity to a single, yellow, medium-size, lowradiation<br />
sun or "Type 12 star". <strong>The</strong> proper<br />
designations are difficult to translate accurately due<br />
to the extreme limitations of astronomical nomenclature<br />
in the English language.<br />
<strong>The</strong>re are as many varieties of life forms as there are<br />
grains of s<strong>and</strong>s on the beach. You can imagine how many<br />
different creatures <strong>and</strong> types of bodies have been<br />
manufactured by the millions of companies such as "Bugs<br />
119
& Blossoms" for all of the myriad planetary systems<br />
during the course of seventy-four trillion years!"<br />
(MATILDA O'DONNELL MACELROY PERSONAL NOTE)<br />
"When Airl finished telling me this "story", there was a long, silent pause while I<br />
muddled through all this in my mind. Had Airl been reading science fiction books<br />
<strong>and</strong> fantasy stories during the night? Why would she tell me something so incredibly<br />
far-fetched? If there had not been a 40 inch tall alien, with gray "skin", <strong>and</strong> three<br />
fingers on each h<strong>and</strong> <strong>and</strong> foot sitting directly across from me, I would not have<br />
believed a single word of it!<br />
In retrospect, over the 60 years since Airl gave me this information, <strong>Earth</strong> doctors<br />
have begun to develop some of the biological engineering technology that Airl told<br />
me about right here on <strong>Earth</strong>. Heart bypasses, cloning, test tube babies, organ<br />
transplants, plastic surgery, genes, chromosomes, <strong>and</strong> so forth.<br />
One thing is very sure: I have never looked at a bug or flower the same way since<br />
then, not to mention my religious belief in Genesis."<br />

SUBJECT: <strong>ALIEN</strong> <strong>INTERVIEW</strong>, 29. 7. 1947, 1st Session<br />
"Today Airl told me about some very technical things. I<br />
took a few notes to remind myself, so I can repeat what<br />
she said as closely as possible. She began with an<br />
analogy about scientific knowledge:<br />
Can you imagine how much progress could have been made<br />
on <strong>Earth</strong> if people like Johannes Gutenberg 212 (Footnote), Sir<br />
Isaac Newton, Benjamin Franklin, George Washington<br />
Carver, 213 (Footnote) Nicola Tesla, Jonas Salk, 214 (Footnote) <strong>and</strong><br />
Richard Trevithick, 215 (Footnote) <strong>and</strong> many thous<strong>and</strong>s of<br />
similar geniuses <strong>and</strong> inventors were living today?<br />
Image what technical accomplishments might have been<br />
developed if men like these never died? What if they<br />
were never given amnesia <strong>and</strong> made to forget everything<br />
they knew? What if they continued to learn <strong>and</strong> work<br />
forever?<br />
What level of technology <strong>and</strong> civilization could be<br />
attained if Immortal Spiritual Beings like these were<br />
121
allowed to continue to create -- in the same place <strong>and</strong><br />
at the same time -- for billions or trillions of years?<br />
Essentially, <strong>The</strong> Domain is one civilization that has<br />
existed for trillions of years with relatively<br />
uninterrupted progress. Knowledge has been accumulated,<br />
refined, <strong>and</strong> improved upon in nearly every field of<br />
study imaginable -- <strong>and</strong> beyond imagining.<br />
Originally, the interaction of IS-BE illusions or<br />
inventions created the very fabric of the physical<br />
universe -- the microcosm <strong>and</strong> the macrocosm. Every<br />
single particle of the universe has been imagined <strong>and</strong><br />
brought into existence by an IS-BE. Everything created<br />
from an idea -- a thought with no weight or size or<br />
location in space.<br />
Every speck of dust in space, from the size of the<br />
tiniest subatomic particle, to the size of a sun or a<br />
magelantic cloud the size of many galaxies, was created<br />
from the nothingness of a thought. Even the tiniest,<br />
individual cells were contrived <strong>and</strong> coordinated to<br />
enable a microbial entity to sense, <strong>and</strong> navigate through<br />
infinitesimally small spaces. <strong>The</strong>se also came from an<br />
idea thought up by an IS-BE.<br />
You, <strong>and</strong> every IS-BE on <strong>Earth</strong>, have participated in the<br />
creation of this universe. Even though you are now<br />
confined to a fragile body made of flesh; you live for<br />
only 65 short rotations of your planet around a star;<br />
you have been given overwhelming electric shock<br />
treatments to wipe out your memory; you must learn<br />
everything all over again each lifetime; in spite of all<br />
these circumstances, you are who you are <strong>and</strong> will always<br />
be. And, deep down, you still know that your are <strong>and</strong><br />
what you know. You are still the essence of you.<br />
How else can one underst<strong>and</strong> the child prodigy? An IS-BE<br />
who plays concertos on a piano at three years of age,<br />
without formal training? Impossible, if they did not<br />
simply remember what they have already learned from<br />
thous<strong>and</strong>s of lives spent in front of a keyboard in times<br />
untold, or on planets far away. <strong>The</strong>y may not know how<br />
they know. <strong>The</strong>y just know.<br />
Humankind has developed more technology in the past 100<br />
years than in the previous 2,000 years. Why? <strong>The</strong><br />
122
answer is simple: the influence of the "Old Empire"<br />
over the mind <strong>and</strong> over the affairs of Mankind has been<br />
diminished by <strong>The</strong> Domain.<br />
A renaissance 216 (Footnote) of invention on <strong>Earth</strong> began in<br />
1,250 AD with the destruction of the "Old Empire" space<br />
fleet in the solar system. During the next 500 years,<br />
<strong>Earth</strong> may have the potential to regain autonomy <strong>and</strong><br />
independence, but only to the degree that humankind can<br />
apply the concentrated genius of the IS-BEs on <strong>Earth</strong> to<br />
solve the amnesia problem.<br />
However, on a cautionary note, the inventive potential<br />
of the IS-BEs who have been exiled to this planet is<br />
severely compromised by the criminal elements of the<br />
<strong>Earth</strong> population. Specifically, politicians, warmongers<br />
<strong>and</strong> irresponsible physicists who create<br />
unlimited weapons such as nuclear bombs, chemicals,<br />
diseases <strong>and</strong> social chaos. <strong>The</strong>se have the potential to<br />
extinguish all life forms on <strong>Earth</strong>, forever.<br />
Even the relatively small explosions that were tested<br />
<strong>and</strong> used in the past two years on <strong>Earth</strong> have the<br />
potential to destroy all of life, if deployed in<br />
sufficient quantities. Larger weapons could consume all<br />
of the oxygen in the global atmosphere in a single<br />
explosion! 217 (Footnote)<br />
<strong>The</strong>refore, the most fundamental problems that must be<br />
solved in order to ensure that <strong>Earth</strong> will not be<br />
destroyed by technology, are social <strong>and</strong> humanitarian<br />
problems. <strong>The</strong> greatest scientific minds of <strong>Earth</strong>, in<br />
spite of mathematical or mechanical genius, have never<br />
addressed these problems.<br />
<strong>The</strong>refore, do not look to scientists to save <strong>Earth</strong> or<br />
the future of humanity. Any so-called "science" that is<br />
solely based on the paradigm 218 (Footnote) that existence is<br />
composed only of energy <strong>and</strong> objects moving through space<br />
is not a science. Such beings utterly ignore the<br />
creative spark originated by an individual IS-BE <strong>and</strong><br />
collective work of the IS-BEs who continually create the<br />
physical universe <strong>and</strong> all universes. Every science will<br />
remain relatively ineffective or destructive to the<br />
degree that it omits or devaluates the relative<br />
importance of the spiritual spark that ignites all of<br />
creation <strong>and</strong> life.<br />
123
Unfortunately this ignorance has been very carefully <strong>and</strong><br />
forcefully instilled in human beings by the "Old Empire"<br />
to ensure that IS-BEs on this planet will not be able to<br />
recover their innate ability to create space, energy,<br />
matter <strong>and</strong> time, or any other component part of<br />
universes. As long as awareness of the immortal,<br />
powerful, spiritual "self" is ignored, humanity will<br />
remain imprisoned until the day of its own, selfdestruction<br />
<strong>and</strong> oblivion.<br />
Do not rely on the dogma of physical sciences to master<br />
the fundamental forces of creation any more than you<br />
would trust the chanted incantations of an incenseburning<br />
shaman. <strong>The</strong> net result of both of these is<br />
entrapment <strong>and</strong> oblivion. Scientists pretend to observe,<br />
but they only suppose that they see, <strong>and</strong> call it fact.<br />
Like the blind man, a scientist can not learn to see<br />
until he realizes that he is blind. <strong>The</strong> "facts" of<br />
<strong>Earth</strong> science do not include the source of creation.<br />
<strong>The</strong>y include only the result, or byproducts of creation.<br />
<strong>The</strong> "facts" of science to not include any memory of the<br />
nearly infinite past experience of existence.<br />
<strong>The</strong> essence of creation <strong>and</strong> existence cannot be found<br />
through the lens of a microscope or telescope or by any<br />
other measurement of the physical universe. One cannot<br />
comprehend the perfume of a flower or the pain felt by<br />
an ab<strong>and</strong>oned lover with meters <strong>and</strong> calipers.<br />
Everything you will ever know about the creative force<br />
<strong>and</strong> ability of a god can be found within you -- an<br />
Immortal Spiritual Being.<br />
How can a blind man teach others to see the nearly<br />
infinite gradients that comprise the spectrum of light?<br />
<strong>The</strong> notion that one can underst<strong>and</strong> the universe without<br />
underst<strong>and</strong>ing the nature of an IS-BE is as absurd as<br />
conceiving that an artist is a speck of paint on his own<br />
canvas. Or, that the lace on a ballet shoe is the<br />
choreographer's vision, or the grace of a dancer, or the<br />
electric excitement of opening night.<br />
Study of the spirit has been booby-trapped by the<br />
thought control operation through religious<br />
superstitions they instill in the minds of men.<br />
Conversely, the study of the spirit <strong>and</strong> the mind have<br />
124
een prohibited by science which eliminates anything<br />
that is not measurable in the physical universe.<br />
Science is the religion of matter. It worships matter.<br />
<strong>The</strong> paradigm of science is that creation is all, <strong>and</strong> the<br />
creator is nothing. Religion says the creator is all,<br />
<strong>and</strong> the creation is nothing. <strong>The</strong>se two extremes are the<br />
bars of a prison cell. <strong>The</strong>y prevent observation of all<br />
phenomenon as an interactive whole.<br />
Study of creation without knowing the IS-BE, the source<br />
of creation, is futile. When you sail to the edge of a<br />
universe conceived by science, you fall off the end into<br />
an abyss of dark, dispassionate space <strong>and</strong> lifeless,<br />
unrelenting force. On <strong>Earth</strong>, you have been convinced<br />
that the oceans of the mind <strong>and</strong> spirit are filled with<br />
gruesome, ghoulish monsters that will eat you alive if<br />
you dare to venture beyond the breakwater of<br />
superstition.<br />
<strong>The</strong> vested interest of the "Old Empire" prison system is<br />
to prevent you from looking at your own soul. <strong>The</strong>y fear<br />
that you will see in your own memory the slave masters<br />
who keep you imprisoned. <strong>The</strong> prison is made of shadows<br />
in your mind. <strong>The</strong> shadows are made of lies, <strong>and</strong> pain,<br />
<strong>and</strong> loss, <strong>and</strong> fear.<br />
<strong>The</strong> true geniuses of civilization are those IS-BEs who<br />
will enable other IS-BEs to recover their memory <strong>and</strong><br />
regain self-realization <strong>and</strong> self-determination. This<br />
issue is not solved through enforcing moral regulation<br />
on behavior, or through the control of beings through<br />
mystery, faith, drugs, guns or any other dogma of a<br />
slave society. And certainly not through the use of<br />
electric shock <strong>and</strong> hypnotic comm<strong>and</strong>s!<br />
<strong>The</strong> survival of <strong>Earth</strong> <strong>and</strong> every being on it depends on<br />
the ability to recover the memory of skills you have<br />
accrued through the trillenia; to recover the essence<br />
of yourself. Such an art, science, or technology has<br />
never been conceived in the "Old Empire". Otherwise,<br />
they would not have resorted to the "solution" that<br />
brought you to your current condition on <strong>Earth</strong>.<br />
Neither has such technology ever been developed by <strong>The</strong><br />
Domain. Until recently, the necessity of rehabilitating<br />
an IS-BE with amnesia has not been needed. <strong>The</strong>refore,<br />
125
no one has ever worked on solving this problem. So far,<br />
unfortunately, <strong>The</strong> Domain has no solution to offer.<br />
A few officers of <strong>The</strong> Domain Expeditionary Force have<br />
taken it upon themselves to provide technology to <strong>Earth</strong><br />
during their off duty time. <strong>The</strong>se officers leave their<br />
"doll" at the space station <strong>and</strong>, as an IS-BE, assume or<br />
take over a biological body on <strong>Earth</strong>. In some cases an<br />
officer can remain on duty while they inhabit <strong>and</strong><br />
control other bodies at the same time.<br />
This is a very dangerous <strong>and</strong> adventurous undertaking.<br />
It requires a very able IS-BE to accomplish such a<br />
mission, <strong>and</strong> return to base successfully. One officer<br />
who did this recently, while continuing to attend to his<br />
official duties, was known on <strong>Earth</strong> as the electronics<br />
inventor, Nicola Tesla. 219 (Footnote)<br />
It is my intention, although is not a part of my mission<br />
orders, to assist you in your efforts to advance<br />
scientific <strong>and</strong> humanitarian progress on <strong>Earth</strong>. My<br />
intention is to help other IS-BEs to help themselves. In<br />
order to solve the amnesia problem on <strong>Earth</strong> you will<br />
need much more advanced technology, as well as social<br />
stability to allow enough time for research <strong>and</strong><br />
development of techniques to free the IS-BE from the<br />
body, <strong>and</strong> to free the mind of the IS-BE from amnesia.<br />
Although <strong>The</strong> Domain has a long term interest in<br />
maintaining <strong>Earth</strong> as a useful planet, it has no<br />
particular interest in the human population of <strong>Earth</strong>,<br />
other than its own personnel here. We are interested in<br />
preventing destruction, as well as accelerating the<br />
development of technologies that will sustain the<br />
infrastructures of the global biosphere, hydrosphere <strong>and</strong><br />
atmosphere.<br />
To this end, you will discover, on very careful <strong>and</strong><br />
thorough examination, that my space craft contains a<br />
wide assortment of technology that does not yet exist on<br />
<strong>Earth</strong>. If you distribute pieces of this craft to<br />
various scientists for study, they will be able to<br />
reverse engineer 220 (Footnote) some of the technology to the<br />
extent that <strong>Earth</strong> has the raw materials required to<br />
replicate these components.<br />
126
Some features will be indecipherable. Other features<br />
cannot be duplicated as <strong>Earth</strong> does not have the natural<br />
resources required to replicate them. This is<br />
especially true of the metals used to construct the<br />
craft. Not only do these metals not exist on <strong>Earth</strong>, the<br />
refining process required to produce these metals took<br />
billions of years to develop.<br />
It is also true of the navigation system which requires<br />
an IS-BE whose own personal wavelength has been<br />
specifically attuned to the "neural network" of the<br />
craft. 221 (Footnote) <strong>The</strong> pilot of the craft must possess a<br />
very high order of energy volition, discipline, training<br />
<strong>and</strong> intelligence to manipulate such a craft. IS-BEs on<br />
<strong>Earth</strong> are incapable of this expertise because it<br />
requires the use of an artificial body specifically<br />
created for this purpose.<br />
Certain individual <strong>Earth</strong> scientists, some of whom are<br />
among the most brilliant minds in the history of the<br />
universe, will have their memory of this technology<br />
jogged when they examine the craft components. Just as<br />
some of the scientists <strong>and</strong> physicists on <strong>Earth</strong> have been<br />
able to "remember" how to recreate electric generators,<br />
internal combustion <strong>and</strong> steam locomotion, refrigeration,<br />
aircraft, antibiotics, <strong>and</strong> other tools of your<br />
civilization, they will also rediscover other vital<br />
technology in my craft.<br />
<strong>The</strong> following are the specific systems embodied in my<br />
craft that contain useful components:<br />
1) <strong>The</strong>re is an assortment of microscopic wiring or<br />
fibers 222 (Footnote) within the walls of the craft that<br />
control such things as communications, information<br />
storage, computer function, <strong>and</strong> automatic navigation.<br />
2) <strong>The</strong> same wiring is used for light, sub-light <strong>and</strong><br />
ultra-light spectrum detection <strong>and</strong> vision. 223 (Footnote)<br />
3) <strong>The</strong> fabrics of the interior of the craft 224 (Footnote) are<br />
far superior to any on <strong>Earth</strong> at this time <strong>and</strong> have<br />
hundreds or thous<strong>and</strong>s of applications.<br />
4) You will also find mechanisms for creating,<br />
amplifying <strong>and</strong> channeling light particles or waves as a<br />
form of energy. 225 (Footnote)<br />
127
As an officer, pilot <strong>and</strong> engineer of <strong>The</strong> Domain Forces,<br />
I am not at liberty to discuss or convey the detailed<br />
operation or construction of the craft in any way, other<br />
than what I have just disclosed. However, I am<br />
confident that there are many competent engineers on<br />
<strong>Earth</strong> who will develop useful technology with these<br />
resources.<br />
I am providing these details to you in the hope that the<br />
greater good of <strong>The</strong> Domain will be served."<br />

A Lesson In Immortality<br />
(MATILDA O'DONNELL MACELROY PERSONAL NOTE)<br />
"I think the following transcript is pretty much self-explanatory."<br />
(OFFICIAL TRANSCRIPT OF <strong>INTERVIEW</strong>)<br />
TOP SECRET<br />
Official Transcript of the U.S. Army Air Force<br />
Roswell Army Air Field, 509th Bomb Group<br />
SUBJECT: <strong>ALIEN</strong> <strong>INTERVIEW</strong>, 30. 7. 1947, 1st Session<br />
Immortal Spiritual Beings, which I refer to as "IS-BEs",<br />
for the sake of convenience, are the source <strong>and</strong> creators<br />
of illusions. Each one, individually <strong>and</strong> collectively,<br />
in their original, unfettered state of being, are an<br />
eternal, all-powerful, all-knowing entity.<br />
IS-BEs create space by imagining a location. <strong>The</strong><br />
intervening distance between themselves <strong>and</strong> the imagined<br />
location is what we call space. An IS-BE can perceive<br />
the space <strong>and</strong> objects created by other IS-BEs.<br />
IS-BEs are not physical universe entities. <strong>The</strong>y are a<br />
source of energy <strong>and</strong> illusion. IS-BEs are not located<br />
in space or time, but can create space, place particles<br />
in space, create energy, <strong>and</strong> shape particles into<br />
various forms, cause the motion of forms, <strong>and</strong> animate<br />
forms. Any form that is animated by an IS-BE is called<br />
life.<br />
An IS-BE can decide to agree that they are located in<br />
space or time, <strong>and</strong> that they, themselves, are an object,<br />
or any other manner of illusion created by themselves or<br />
another or other IS-BEs.<br />
<strong>The</strong> disadvantage of creating an illusion is that an<br />
illusion must be continually created. If not<br />
continually created, it disappears. Continual creation<br />
129
of an illusion requires incessant attention to every<br />
detail of the illusion in order to sustain it.<br />
A common denominator of IS-BEs seems to be the desire to<br />
avoid boredom. A spirit only, without interaction with<br />
other IS-BEs, <strong>and</strong> the unpredictable motion, drama, <strong>and</strong><br />
unanticipated intentions <strong>and</strong> illusions being created by<br />
other IS-BEs, is easily bored.<br />
What if you could imagine anything, perceive everything,<br />
<strong>and</strong> cause anything to happen, at will? What if you<br />
couldn't do anything else? What if you always knew the<br />
outcome of every game <strong>and</strong> the answer to every question?<br />
Would you get bored?<br />
<strong>The</strong> entire back time track of IS-BEs is immeasurable,<br />
nearly infinite in terms of physical universe time.<br />
<strong>The</strong>re is no measurable "beginning" or "end" for an IS-<br />
BE. <strong>The</strong>y simply exist in an everlasting now.<br />
Another common denominator of IS-BEs is that admiration<br />
of one's own illusions by others is very desirable. If<br />
the desired admiration is not forthcoming, the IS-BE<br />
will keep creating the illusion in an attempt to get<br />
admiration. One could say that the entire physical<br />
universe is made of unadmired illusions.<br />
<strong>The</strong> origins of this universe began with the creation of<br />
individual, illusionary spaces. <strong>The</strong>se were the "home"<br />
of the IS-BE. Sometimes a universe is a collaborative<br />
creation of illusions by two or more IS-BEs. A<br />
proliferation of IS-BEs, <strong>and</strong> the universes they create,<br />
sometimes collide or become commingled or merge to an<br />
extent that many IS-BEs shared in the co-creation of a<br />
universe.<br />
IS-BEs diminish their ability in order to have a game to<br />
play. IS-BEs think that any game is better than no<br />
game. <strong>The</strong>y will endure pain, suffering, stupidity,<br />
privation, <strong>and</strong> all manner of unnecessary <strong>and</strong> undesirable<br />
conditions, just to play a game. Pretending that one<br />
does not know all, see all <strong>and</strong> cause all, is a way to<br />
create the conditions necessary for playing a game:<br />
unknowns, freedoms, barriers <strong>and</strong>/or opponents <strong>and</strong> goals.<br />
Ultimately, playing a game solves the problem of<br />
boredom.<br />
130
In this fashion, all of the space, galaxies, suns,<br />
planets, <strong>and</strong> physical phenomena of this universe,<br />
including life forms, places, <strong>and</strong> events that have been<br />
created by IS-BEs <strong>and</strong> sustained by mutual agreement that<br />
these things exist.<br />
<strong>The</strong>re are as many universes as there are IS-BEs to<br />
imagine, build <strong>and</strong> perceive them, each existing<br />
concurrently within its own continuum. 226 (Footnote) Each<br />
universe is created using its own, unique set of rules,<br />
as imagined, altered, preserved or destroyed by one or<br />
more IS-BEs who created it. Time, energy, objects <strong>and</strong><br />
space, as defined in terms of the physical universe, may<br />
or may not exist in other universes. <strong>The</strong> Domain exists<br />
in such a universe, as well as in the physical universe.<br />
One of the rules of the physical universe is that energy<br />
can be created, but not destroyed. So, the universe<br />
will keep exp<strong>and</strong>ing as long as IS-BEs keep adding more<br />
new energy into it. It is nearly infinite. It is like<br />
an automobile assembly line that never stops running <strong>and</strong><br />
none of the cars are ever destroyed.<br />
Every IS-BE is basically good. <strong>The</strong>refore, an IS-BE does<br />
not enjoy doing things to other IS-BEs which they<br />
themselves do not want to experience. For an IS-BE<br />
there is no inherent st<strong>and</strong>ard for what is good or bad,<br />
right or wrong, ugly or beautiful. <strong>The</strong>se ideas are all<br />
based on the opinion of each individual IS-BE.<br />
<strong>The</strong> closest concept that human beings have to describe<br />
an IS-BE is as a god: all-knowing, all-powerful,<br />
infinite. So, how does a god stop being a god? <strong>The</strong>y<br />
pretend NOT to know. How can you play a game of "hide<br />
<strong>and</strong> seek" if you always know where the other person is<br />
hiding?<br />
You pretend NOT to know where the other players are<br />
hiding, so you can go off to "seek" them. This is how<br />
games are created. You have forgotten that you are just<br />
"pretending". In so doing, IS-BEs become entrapped <strong>and</strong><br />
enslaved inside a maze of their own devising.<br />
How does one create a cage, lock one's own self inside<br />
the cage, throw away the key, <strong>and</strong> forget there is a key<br />
or a cage, <strong>and</strong> forget there is an "inside" or "outside",<br />
<strong>and</strong> even forget there is a self? Create the illusion<br />
131
that there is no illusion: the entire universe is real,<br />
<strong>and</strong> that no other universe exists or can be created.<br />
On <strong>Earth</strong>, the propag<strong>and</strong>a taught <strong>and</strong> agreed upon is that<br />
the gods are responsible, <strong>and</strong> that human beings are not<br />
responsible. You are taught that only a god can<br />
create universes. So, the responsibility for every<br />
action is assigned to another IS-BE or god. Never<br />
oneself.<br />
No human being ever assumes personal responsibility for<br />
the fact that they, themselves -- individually <strong>and</strong><br />
collectively -- are gods. This fact alone is the source<br />
of entrapment for every IS-BE.<br />

A Lesson In <strong>The</strong> Future<br />
(MATILDA O'DONNELL MACELROY PERSONAL NOTE)<br />
"I think this transcript speaks for itself also. I relayed Airl's exact communication as<br />
faithfully as possible. My superior officers became very alarmed about the possible<br />
military implications of what Airl said in this interview."<br />
(OFFICIAL TRANSCRIPT OF <strong>INTERVIEW</strong>)<br />
TOP SECRET<br />
Official Transcript of the U.S. Army Air Force<br />
Roswell Army Air Field, 509th Bomb Group<br />
SUBJECT: <strong>ALIEN</strong> <strong>INTERVIEW</strong>, 31. 7. 1947, 1st Session<br />
" 'It is my personal belief that the truth should not be<br />
sacrificed on the altar of political, religious or<br />
economic expediency. 227 (Footnote) As an officer, pilot <strong>and</strong><br />
engineer of <strong>The</strong> Domain it is my duty to protect the<br />
greater good of <strong>The</strong> Domain <strong>and</strong> its possessions. However,<br />
we cannot defend ourselves against forces of which we<br />
are not aware.<br />
<strong>The</strong> isolation of <strong>Earth</strong> from the rest of civilization<br />
prevents me from discussing many subjects with you at<br />
this time. Security <strong>and</strong> protocol prevent me from<br />
revealing any but the broadest, general statements about<br />
the plans <strong>and</strong> activities of <strong>The</strong> Domain. However, I can<br />
give you some information that you may find useful.<br />
I must return to my assigned duties on the "space<br />
station" now. I have provided as much help as I feel<br />
ethically able to offer, given the requirements <strong>and</strong><br />
constraints of my duties as an officer, pilot <strong>and</strong><br />
engineer of <strong>The</strong> Domain Forces. <strong>The</strong>refore, I will<br />
depart, as an IS-BE, from <strong>Earth</strong> within the next 24<br />
hours.'<br />
133
(EDITOR'S NOTE: <strong>The</strong> following several paragraphs appear to be personal<br />
comments made by Matilda to the stenographer regarding her interview with<br />
Airl.)<br />
What this means is that Airl will leave her "doll" with<br />
us, as her craft is damaged beyond repair. We can<br />
examine, dissect <strong>and</strong> study the body at our leisure. She<br />
does not have any further use for it, nor does she have<br />
any personal feelings or attachments to it as others are<br />
readily available for her use.<br />
Airl does not recommend that there is any technology in<br />
the body that <strong>Earth</strong> scientists will find useful,<br />
however. <strong>The</strong> technology of the body is simple, yet<br />
vastly beyond the reckoning of our current ability to<br />
analyze or reverse engineer any facet of it. <strong>The</strong> body<br />
is neither biological or mechanical, but a unique<br />
fabrication a materials <strong>and</strong> ancient technologies not<br />
found on any <strong>Earth</strong>-type planet.<br />
As Airl mentioned previously, a very rigid <strong>and</strong><br />
distinctive hierarchy of social, economic <strong>and</strong> cultural<br />
classes exists throughout <strong>The</strong> Domain which has remained<br />
unvaried <strong>and</strong> inviolate for many millennia. <strong>The</strong> body<br />
type <strong>and</strong> function assigned to an IS-BE officer varies<br />
specifically according to the rank, class, longevity,<br />
training level, comm<strong>and</strong> level, service record, <strong>and</strong><br />
meritorious citations earned by each individual IS-BE,<br />
as with any other military insignia.<br />
<strong>The</strong> body used by Airl is specifically designed for an<br />
officer, pilot <strong>and</strong> engineer of her rank <strong>and</strong> class. <strong>The</strong><br />
bodies of her companions, which were destroyed in the<br />
crash, were not of the same rank or class, but of a<br />
junior rank. <strong>The</strong>refore, the appearance, features,<br />
composition <strong>and</strong> functionality of those bodies were<br />
specialized, <strong>and</strong> limited to the requirements of their<br />
duties.<br />
<strong>The</strong> junior officers whose bodies were damaged in the<br />
crash have left their bodies <strong>and</strong> returned to their<br />
duties on the space station. <strong>The</strong> damage suffered by<br />
their bodies was due primarily to the fact that they<br />
were officers of lower rank. <strong>The</strong>y used bodies which were<br />
partially biological <strong>and</strong> therefore far less durable <strong>and</strong><br />
resilient than hers.<br />
134
(EDITOR'S NOTE: At this point, the transcript appears to resume with<br />
statements made by Airl.)<br />
Although <strong>The</strong> Domain will not hesitate to destroy any<br />
active vestiges of the "Old Empire" operations where<br />
ever they are discovered this is not our primary mission<br />
in this galaxy. I am sure that the "Old Empire" mindcontrol<br />
mechanisms can be deactivated <strong>and</strong> destroyed<br />
eventually. However, it is not possible to estimate how<br />
long this make take, as we do not underst<strong>and</strong> the extent<br />
of this operation at this time.<br />
We do know that the "Old Empire" force screen is vast<br />
enough to cover this end of the galaxy, at least. We<br />
also know from experience that each force generator <strong>and</strong><br />
trapping device is very difficult to detect, locate <strong>and</strong><br />
destroy. Also, it is not the current mission of <strong>The</strong><br />
Domain Expeditionary Force to commit resources to this<br />
endeavor.<br />
<strong>The</strong> eventual destruction of these devices may make it<br />
possible for your memory to be restored, simply by<br />
virtue of not having it erased after each lifetime.<br />
Fortunately, the memory of an IS-BE cannot be<br />
permanently erased.<br />
<strong>The</strong>re are many other active space civilizations who<br />
maintain various nefarious operations in this area, not<br />
the least of which is dumping unwanted IS-BEs on <strong>Earth</strong>.<br />
None of these craft are hostile or in violent opposition<br />
to <strong>The</strong> Domain Forces. <strong>The</strong>y know better than to<br />
challenge us!<br />
For the most part <strong>The</strong> Domain ignores <strong>Earth</strong> <strong>and</strong> its<br />
inhabitants, except to ensure that the resources of the<br />
planet itself are not permanently spoiled. This sector<br />
of the galaxy was annexed by <strong>The</strong> Domain <strong>and</strong> is the<br />
possession of <strong>The</strong> Domain, to do with or dispose of as it<br />
deems best. <strong>The</strong> moon of <strong>Earth</strong> <strong>and</strong> the asteroid belt<br />
have become a permanent base of operations for <strong>The</strong><br />
Domain Forces.<br />
Needless to say, any attempt by humans or others to<br />
interfere in the activities of <strong>The</strong> Domain in this solar<br />
system -- even if it were possible, which it definitely<br />
is not -- will be terminated swiftly. This is not a<br />
135
serious concern, as I mentioned earlier, since homo<br />
sapiens cannot operate in open space.<br />
Of course we will continue with the next steps of <strong>The</strong><br />
Domain Expansion Plan which has remained on schedule for<br />
billions of years. Over the next 5,000 years there will<br />
be increasing traffic <strong>and</strong> activity of <strong>The</strong> Domain Forces<br />
as we progress toward the center of this galaxy <strong>and</strong><br />
beyond to spread our civilization through the universe.<br />
If humanity is to survive, it must cooperate to find<br />
effective solutions to the difficult conditions of your<br />
existence on <strong>Earth</strong>. Humanity must rise above its human<br />
form <strong>and</strong> discover where they are, <strong>and</strong> that they are IS-<br />
BEs, <strong>and</strong> who they really are as IS-BEs in order to<br />
transcend the notion that they are merely biological<br />
bodies. Once these realizations have been made, it may<br />
be possible to escape your current imprisonment.<br />
Otherwise, there will be no future for the IS-BEs on<br />
<strong>Earth</strong>.<br />
Although there are no active battles or war being waged<br />
between <strong>The</strong> Domain <strong>and</strong> the "Old Empire", there still<br />
exists the covert actions of the "Old Empire" taken<br />
against <strong>Earth</strong> through their thought control operation.<br />
When one knows that these activities exist, the effects<br />
can be observed clearly. <strong>The</strong> most obvious examples of<br />
these actions against the human race can be seen as<br />
incidents of sudden, inexplicable behavior. A very<br />
recent instance of this occurred in the United States<br />
military just before the Japanese attack on Pearl<br />
Harbor. 228 (Footnote)<br />
Just three days before the attack, someone in authority<br />
ordered all the ships in Pearl Harbor to go into port<br />
<strong>and</strong> secure for inspection. <strong>The</strong> ships were ordered to<br />
take all the ammunition out of their magazines, <strong>and</strong><br />
store it below. On the afternoon before attack all of<br />
the admirals <strong>and</strong> generals were attending parties, even<br />
though two Japanese aircraft carriers were discovered<br />
st<strong>and</strong>ing right off Pearl Harbor.<br />
<strong>The</strong> obvious action to take would have been to contact<br />
Pearl Harbor by telephone to warn them of the danger of<br />
a fight starting <strong>and</strong> to put the ammunition back <strong>and</strong><br />
order the ships to get out of port into open sea.<br />
136
About six hours before the Japanese attack began, a U.S.<br />
navy ship sank a small Japanese submarine right outside<br />
the harbor. Instead of contacting Pearl Harbor by<br />
telephone to report the incident, a warning message was<br />
put into top secret code, which took about two hours to<br />
encode, <strong>and</strong> then it took another two hours to decode.<br />
<strong>The</strong> word of warning to Pearl Harbor did not arrive until<br />
10:00 AM Pearl Harbor time, Sunday -- two hours after<br />
the Japanese attack destroyed the U.S. fleet.<br />
How do things like this happen?<br />
If the men who were responsible for these obviously<br />
disastrous errors were stood up <strong>and</strong> asked bluntly to<br />
justify their actions <strong>and</strong> intentions you would find out<br />
that they were quite sincere in their jobs. Ordinarily,<br />
they do the very best they can do for people <strong>and</strong><br />
nations. However, all of a sudden, from some<br />
completely unknown <strong>and</strong> undetectable source enters these<br />
wild, unexplainable situations that just 'can't exist'.<br />
<strong>The</strong> "Old Empire" thought control operation is run by a<br />
small group of old "baboons" with very small minds.<br />
<strong>The</strong>y are playing insidious games with no purpose <strong>and</strong> no<br />
goal other than to control <strong>and</strong> destroy IS-BEs who could<br />
otherwise manage themselves perfectly well, if left<br />
alone.<br />
<strong>The</strong>se types of artificially created incidents are being<br />
forced upon the human race by the operators of the mindcontrol<br />
prison system. <strong>The</strong> prison guards will always<br />
promote <strong>and</strong> support oppressive or totalitarian<br />
activities of IS-BEs on <strong>Earth</strong>. Why not keep the inmates<br />
fighting between themselves? Why not empower madmen to<br />
run the governments of <strong>Earth</strong>? <strong>The</strong> men who run the<br />
criminal governments of <strong>Earth</strong> mirror the comm<strong>and</strong>s given<br />
them by covert thought-controllers of the "Old Empire".<br />
<strong>The</strong> human race will continue to shadow box with this for<br />
a long time -- as long as it remains the human race.<br />
Until then, the IS-BEs on <strong>Earth</strong> will continue to live a<br />
series of consecutive lives, over <strong>and</strong> over <strong>and</strong> over.<br />
<strong>The</strong> same IS-BEs who lived during the rise <strong>and</strong> fall of<br />
civilizations in India, China, Mesepotamia, Greece, <strong>and</strong><br />
Rome are inhabiting bodies in the present time in<br />
America, France, Russia, Africa, <strong>and</strong> around the world.<br />
137
In between each lifetime an IS-BE is sent back again, to<br />
begin all over, as though the new life was the only life<br />
they had ever lived. <strong>The</strong>y begin anew in pain, in<br />
misery, <strong>and</strong> mystery.<br />
Some IS-BEs have been transported to <strong>Earth</strong> more recently<br />
than others. Some IS-BEs have been on <strong>Earth</strong> only a few<br />
hundred years, so they have no personal experiences with<br />
the earlier civilizations of <strong>Earth</strong>. <strong>The</strong>y have no<br />
experiences of having lived on <strong>Earth</strong>, so could not<br />
remember a previous existence here, even if their memory<br />
was restored. <strong>The</strong>y might, however, remember lives they<br />
lived elsewhere on other planets <strong>and</strong> in other times.<br />
Others have been here since the first days of Lemuria.<br />
In any case, the IS-BEs of <strong>Earth</strong> are here forever, until<br />
they can break the amnesia cycle, conquer the electronic<br />
traps set up by their captors <strong>and</strong> free themselves.<br />
Because <strong>The</strong> Domain has three thous<strong>and</strong> of their own IS-<br />
BEs in captivity on <strong>Earth</strong> also, they have an interest in<br />
solving this problem. This problem has never been<br />
encountered or effectively solved before in the<br />
universe, as far as they know. <strong>The</strong>y will continue their<br />
efforts to free those IS-BEs from <strong>Earth</strong>, where <strong>and</strong> when<br />
it is possible, but it will require time to develop an<br />
unprecedented technology <strong>and</strong> the diligence to do so.'<br />
(EDITOR'S NOTE: <strong>The</strong> following statement is a comment by Matilda.)<br />
I think it is Airl's sincere desire, as one IS-BE to<br />
another, that the rest of our eternity will be as<br />
pleasant as possible."<br />

Airl Reviews <strong>The</strong> Interview Transcripts<br />
(MATILDA O'DONNELL MACELROY PERSONAL NOTE)<br />
"Shortly after I finished recounting the previous interview with Airl to the<br />
stenographer, I was summoned urgently to the office of the Comm<strong>and</strong>ing Officer of<br />
the base. I was escorted by four heavily armed military policemen. When I arrived,<br />
I was asked to be seated in a very large, make-shift office that had been arranged<br />
with a conference table <strong>and</strong> chairs. In the office were several dignitaries I had seen<br />
at various times in "the gallery". I recognized a few of them because they were<br />
famous men.<br />
I was introduced to these men, which included:<br />
Army Air Force Secretary Symington, 229 (Footnote) General Nathan Twining,<br />
230 (Footnote) General Jimmy Doolittle , 231 (Footnote) General V<strong>and</strong>enberg,<br />
232 (Footnote) <strong>and</strong> General Norstad. 233 (Footnote)<br />
Much to my surprise Charles Lindbergh 234 (Footnote) was also in the office.<br />
Secretary Symington explained to me that Mr. Lindberg was there as a consultant to<br />
the chief of staff of the U.S. Air Force. <strong>The</strong>re were several other men present in the<br />
room who were not introduced. I assume these men were personal aides to the<br />
officers or agents of some intelligence service.<br />
All of this sudden attention, not only from the Secretary <strong>and</strong> generals, but from such<br />
world famous people as Mr. Lindbergh, <strong>and</strong> General Doolittle, made me realize how<br />
critically important my role as an "interpreter" for Airl was, as seen through the eyes<br />
of others. Until this time I was not really aware of this except in an peripheral sense.<br />
I suppose this was because I was so absorbed in details of the extraordinary situation.<br />
Suddenly, I began to grasp the magnitude of my role. I think that the presence of<br />
these men in that meeting was intended, in part, to impress me with this fact!<br />
<strong>The</strong> Secretary instructed me not to be nervous. He said that I was not in any trouble.<br />
He asked me if I thought the alien would be willing to answer a list of questions they<br />
had prepared. He explained that they were very eager to discover many more details<br />
about Airl, the flying disc, <strong>The</strong> Domain, <strong>and</strong> many other subjects that Airl had<br />
disclosed in the interview transcripts. Of course, they were mainly interested in<br />
questions relating to the military security <strong>and</strong> the construction of the flying disc.<br />
139
I told them that I was very sure that Airl had not changed her mind about answering<br />
questions, as nothing had changed that would cause her to trust the intentions of the<br />
men in the gallery. I repeated that Airl had communicated everything that she was<br />
willing <strong>and</strong> at liberty to discuss already.<br />
In spite of this, they insisted that I would ask Airl again if she would answer<br />
questions. And, if the answer was still "NO", I was to ask her if she would be<br />
willing to read the written copies of the transcripts of my interview "translations".<br />
<strong>The</strong>y wanted to know if Airl would verify that my underst<strong>and</strong>ing <strong>and</strong> translation of<br />
our interviews was correct.<br />
Since Airl could read English very fluently, the Secretary asked if they could be<br />
allowed to observe for themselves while Airl read the transcripts, <strong>and</strong> verify that they<br />
were correct in writing. <strong>The</strong>y wanted her to write on a copy of the transcript whether<br />
the "translations" were correct, or not, <strong>and</strong> make a note of anything that was not<br />
accurate on the transcripts. Of course, I had no choice but to obey orders <strong>and</strong> I did<br />
exactly what the Secretary requested.<br />
I was given a copy of the transcripts, with a signature page, which I was to show to<br />
Airl. After Airl completed her review, I was also directed to request that Airl sign<br />
the cover-page, attesting that all of the translations in the transcripts were correct, as<br />
amended by her.<br />
About an hour later I entered the interview room, as instructed, with copies of the<br />
transcripts <strong>and</strong> signature page to deliver to Airl as the members of the gallery,<br />
including the Generals, (<strong>and</strong> Mr. Lindberg also, I presume) <strong>and</strong> others watched<br />
through the glass of the gallery room.<br />
I went to my usual seat, sitting 4 or 5 feet across from Airl. I presented the envelope<br />
of transcripts to Airl, <strong>and</strong> passed on the instructions I had received from the<br />
Secretary, telepathically. Airl looked at me, <strong>and</strong> looked at the envelope, without<br />
accepting it.<br />
Airl said: "If you have read them <strong>and</strong> they are accurate in you own estimation, there<br />
is no need for me to review them also. <strong>The</strong> translations are correct. You can tell<br />
your comm<strong>and</strong>er that you have faithfully conveyed a record of our communication."<br />
I assured Airl that I had read them, <strong>and</strong> they were exact recordings of everything I<br />
told the transcription typist.<br />
"Will you sign the cover page then?", I asked.<br />
"No, I will not.", said Airl.<br />
140
"May I ask why not?", I said. I was a little confused as to why she wasn't willing to<br />
do such a simple thing.<br />
"If your comm<strong>and</strong>er does not trust his own staff to make an honest <strong>and</strong> accurate<br />
report to him, what confidence will my signature on the page give him? Why will he<br />
trust an ink mark on a page made by an officer of <strong>The</strong> Domain, if he does not trust<br />
his own, loyal staff?"<br />
I didn't quite know what to say to that. I couldn't argue with Airl's logic, <strong>and</strong> I<br />
couldn't force her to sign the document either. I sat in my chair for a minute<br />
wondering what to do next. I thanked Airl <strong>and</strong> told her I needed to go ask my<br />
superiors for further instructions. I placed the envelope of the transcripts in the<br />
inside breast pocket of my uniform jacket <strong>and</strong> began to rise from my chair.<br />
At that moment the door from the gallery room slammed open! Five heavily armed<br />
military police rushed into the room! A man in a white laboratory coat followed<br />
closely behind them. He pushed a small cart that carried a box-shaped machine with<br />
a lot of dials on the face of it.<br />
Before I could react, two of the MPs grabbed Airl <strong>and</strong> held her firmly down in the<br />
overstuffed chair she had been sitting on since the first day of our interviews<br />
together. <strong>The</strong> two other MPs grabbed my shoulders <strong>and</strong> pushed me back down on<br />
my chair <strong>and</strong> held me there. <strong>The</strong> other MP stood directly in front of Airl, pointing a<br />
rifle directly at her, not more than six inches from her head.<br />
<strong>The</strong> man in the lab coat quickly wheeled the cart behind Airl's chair. He deftly<br />
placed a circular head b<strong>and</strong> over Airl's head <strong>and</strong> turned back to the machine on the<br />
cart. Suddenly, he shouted the word "clear!"<br />
<strong>The</strong> soldiers who were holding Airl released her. At that instant I saw Airl's body<br />
stiffen <strong>and</strong> shudder. This lasted for about 15 or 20 seconds. <strong>The</strong> machine operator<br />
turned a knob on the machine <strong>and</strong> Airl's body slumped back into the chair. After a<br />
few seconds he turned the knob again <strong>and</strong> Airl's body stiffened as before. He<br />
repeated the same process several more times.<br />
I sat in my chair, being held down all the while by the MPs. And I didn't underst<strong>and</strong><br />
what was going on. I was terrified <strong>and</strong> transfixed by what was happening! I couldn't<br />
believe it!<br />
After a few minutes several other men wearing white lab coats entered the room.<br />
<strong>The</strong>y briefly examined Airl who was now slumped listlessly in the chair. <strong>The</strong>y<br />
mumbled a few words to each other. One of the men waved to the gallery window.<br />
A gurney was immediately rolled into the room by two attendants. <strong>The</strong>se men lifted<br />
Airl's limp body onto the gurney, strapped her down across her chest <strong>and</strong> arms, <strong>and</strong><br />
rolled it out of the room.<br />
141
I was immediately escorted out of the interview room by the MPs <strong>and</strong> taken directly<br />
to my quarters, where I was locked in my room with the MPs remaining at guard<br />
outside the door.<br />
After about half an hour there was a knock at the door to my quarters. When I<br />
opened it General Twining entered, together with the machine operator in the white<br />
lab coat. <strong>The</strong> General introduced the man to me as Dr. Wilcox. 235 (Footnote). He<br />
asked me to accompany him <strong>and</strong> the doctor. We left the room, followed by the MPs.<br />
After several twists <strong>and</strong> turns through the complex we entered a small room where<br />
Airl had been wheeled on the gurney.<br />
<strong>The</strong> General told me that Airl <strong>and</strong> <strong>The</strong> Domain were considered to be a very great<br />
military threat to the United States. Airl had been "immobilized" so that she could<br />
not depart <strong>and</strong> return to her base, as she said she would do in the interview. It would<br />
be a very grave risk to national security to allow Airl to report what she observed<br />
during her time at the base. So, it had been determined that decisive action was<br />
needed to prevent this.<br />
<strong>The</strong> General asked me if I understood why this was necessary. I said that I did,<br />
although I most certainly did not agree that it was the least bit necessary <strong>and</strong> I<br />
certainly did not agree with the "surprise attack" on Airl <strong>and</strong> me in the interview<br />
room! However, I said nothing about this to the General because I was very afraid<br />
of what might happen to me <strong>and</strong> Airl if I protested.<br />
Dr. Wilcox asked me to approach the gurney <strong>and</strong> st<strong>and</strong> next to Airl. Airl lay<br />
perfectly still <strong>and</strong> unmoving on the bed. I could not tell whether she was alive or<br />
dead. Several other men in white lab coats, who I assumed were also doctors, stood<br />
on the opposite side of the bed. <strong>The</strong>y had connected two pieces of monitoring<br />
equipment to Airl's head, arms <strong>and</strong> chest. One of these devices I recognized from<br />
my training as a surgical nurse as an EEG machine 236 (Footnote) which is used to<br />
detect electrical activity in the brain. <strong>The</strong> other device was a normal hospital room<br />
vital signs monitor, which I knew would be useless since Airl did not have a<br />
biological body.<br />
Dr. Wilcox explained to me that he had administered a series of "mild" electroshocks<br />
to Airl in an attempt to subdue her long enough to allow the military authorities time<br />
to evaluate the situation <strong>and</strong> determine what to do with Airl.<br />
He asked me to attempt to communicate with Airl, telepathically.<br />
I tried for several minutes but couldn't sense any communication from Airl. I<br />
couldn't even sense whether Airl was present in the body any longer!<br />
"I think you must have killed her", I said to the doctor.<br />
142
Dr. Wilcox told me that they would keep Airl under observation <strong>and</strong> that I would be<br />
asked to return later to try to establish communication with Airl again."<br />

Chapter Fifteen<br />
My Interrogation<br />
(MATILDA O'DONNELL MACELROY PERSONAL NOTE)<br />
"<strong>The</strong> next morning I was escorted from my quarters, under the guard of four MPs, to<br />
the interview room. Airl's overstuffed chair had been removed from the room <strong>and</strong><br />
replaced by a small desk <strong>and</strong> several office chairs. I was asked to sit down <strong>and</strong> wait<br />
to be interviewed. After a few minutes Dr. Wilcox came into the office together with<br />
another man wearing a plain business suit. <strong>The</strong> man introduced himself as John<br />
Reid. 237 (Footnote)<br />
Dr. Wilcox explained to me that Mr. Reid had been flown in from Chicago at the<br />
request of my superior officers to conduct a lie detector 238 (Footnote) test on me!<br />
My surprise at this statement was so obvious, that Dr. Wilcox noticed that I was<br />
obviously taken aback, <strong>and</strong> insulted, at the insinuation that I had ever lied about<br />
anything!<br />
Nonetheless, Mr. Reid began to set up his polygraph device on the desk next to my<br />
chair, while Dr. Wilcox continued to explain, in a calm voice, that the test was being<br />
administered for my own protection. Since all of the interviews with the alien had<br />
been conducted telepathically, <strong>and</strong> Airl had declined to read <strong>and</strong> attest that the typed<br />
transcripts were accurate, that the truth <strong>and</strong> accuracy of the statements contained in<br />
the transcripts depended entirely on my personal word alone. <strong>The</strong>re was no other<br />
reliable way to test the accuracy of the transcripts without submitting me to a battery<br />
of tests <strong>and</strong> psychological examinations to determine, in the opinion of "experts",<br />
meaning himself, whether the transcripts should be taken seriously, or not.<br />
<strong>The</strong> tone of his voice said very clearly, "or dismissed as the delusional ranting of a<br />
mere woman!"<br />
Mr. Reid proceeded to strap a rubber tube around my chest, as well as an ordinary<br />
blood-pressure cuff around my upper arm. He then placed electrodes on the fingers<br />
<strong>and</strong> surfaces of my h<strong>and</strong>s. He explained that he would be very objective during the<br />
interview because he had been thoroughly trained in scientific interrogation. This<br />
training was supposed to make his interrogation free from human error.<br />
144
Mr. Reid explained to me that, in response to the questions he <strong>and</strong> Dr. Wilcox were<br />
going to ask me, that actual physiological changes would be transmitted through a<br />
small panel unit. <strong>The</strong> readings would then be tracked on moving graph paper, which<br />
he placed beside the machine on the desk. <strong>The</strong> parallel graphs on the paper would<br />
then be correlated <strong>and</strong> interpreted by Mr. Reid, with the "expert" assistance of Dr.<br />
Wilcox, to determine whether or not I was lying.<br />
Both Mr. Reid <strong>and</strong> Dr. Wilcox asked me a series of innocuous questions to begin,<br />
which advanced into a more pointed interrogation about my interviews with Airl.<br />
Here is what I remember about the questions:<br />
"What is your name?"<br />
"Matilda O'Donnell", I replied.<br />
"What is your date of birth?"<br />
"June 12th, 1924", I said.<br />
"What is your age?"<br />
"Twenty-three".<br />
"Where were you born?"<br />
"Los Angeles, California", I said.<br />
(And so on, <strong>and</strong> so forth.)<br />
"Are you able to communicate by telepathy?"<br />
"No. I have never been able to do this with anyone except Airl." I said.<br />
"Were any of the statements you made to the stenographer falsified?<br />
"No", I answered.<br />
"Have you intentionally or unintentionally imagined or fabricated any of the<br />
communication you claimed to have had with the alien?"<br />
"No, of course not", I said.<br />
"Are you intentionally attempting to deceive anyone?"<br />
"No."<br />
145
"Are you attempting to obstruct this test?"<br />
"No."<br />
"What color are your eyes?"<br />
"Blue".<br />
"Are you a Catholic?"<br />
"Yes."<br />
"Would you tell the same stories to your parish priest in a Catholic church<br />
confessional that you told to the stenographer here at the base?"<br />
"Yes."<br />
"Are you trying to hide anything from us?"<br />
"No. Nothing."<br />
"Do you believe everything the alien communicated to you?"<br />
"Yes."<br />
"Do you consider yourself to be a gullible person?"<br />
"No."<br />
<strong>The</strong> questions continued in this manner for more than an hour. Finally, I was<br />
unhooked from the polygraph machine <strong>and</strong> allowed to return to my quarters, still<br />
under guard by the MPs.<br />
Later in the afternoon I returned to the interview room. This time the desk was<br />
replaced by a hospital gurney. Dr. Wilcox was accompanied by a staff nurse this<br />
time. He asked me to lie down on the gurney. He said that he had been requested to<br />
ask me the same series of questions that I answered for the lie detector test.<br />
This time, however, I would respond to the questions under the influence of a "truth<br />
serum", 239 (Footnote) known as sodium pentothal. As a trained surgical nurse, I was<br />
familiar with this barbiturate drug as it was sometimes used as an anesthetic.<br />
Dr. Wilcox asked me if I had any objection to submitting to such a test. I told him<br />
that I had nothing to hide. I cannot recall anything about this interview. I assumed<br />
that when I finished answering the questions I was escorted back to my room by the<br />
146
MPs, with their assistance this time, as I was too wobbly <strong>and</strong> woozy from the drug to<br />
navigate by myself. However, I had a very peaceful sleep that night.<br />
Apparently neither of these interrogations yielded any suspicious results as I was not<br />
asked any more questions after that. Thankfully, I was left alone during the rest of<br />
my time at the base."<br />
147
Chapter Sixteen<br />
Airl Departs<br />
(MATILDA O'DONNELL MACELROY PERSONAL NOTE)<br />
"I remained at the base, mostly confined to my quarters, for another 3 weeks<br />
after Airl had been "incapacitated" by Dr. Wilcox. Once a day I was escorted to<br />
the room where Airl lay on the bed under continued surveillance by Dr. Wilcox,<br />
<strong>and</strong> others, I assume. Each time I went to the room, I was asked to try to<br />
communicate with Airl again. Each time there was no response. This saddened<br />
me a great deal. As the days continued I became increasing more certain <strong>and</strong><br />
distressed that Airl was "dead", if that is the right word for it.<br />
Every day, I re-read the transcripts of my interviews with Airl, searching for a<br />
clue that might remind me of something or help me in some way to re-establish<br />
communication with Airl. I still had the envelope in my possession with copies<br />
of the transcripts that Airl was asked to sign. To this day, I don't underst<strong>and</strong><br />
why no one ever asked me to return them. I suppose they forgot about the copy<br />
of the transcripts in all the excitement. I did not offer to return them. I kept<br />
them concealed under the mattress of my bed all the time I remained at the base,<br />
<strong>and</strong> have kept them with me ever since then. You will be the first person to see<br />
these transcripts.<br />
Since Airl's body was not biological, the doctors could not detect whether the<br />
body was alive or dead unless it moved. Of course I knew that if Airl was not<br />
consciously animating the body as an IS-BE, the body would not move.<br />
I explained this to Dr. Wilcox. I explained this to him several times. Each time<br />
he just gave me a patronizing sort of smile, patted my arm, <strong>and</strong> thanked me for<br />
trying again.<br />
At the end of the third week I was told by Dr. Wilcox that my services would no<br />
longer be needed because it had been decided by the military to move Airl to a<br />
larger, more secure military medical facility that was better equipped to deal<br />
with the situation. He didn't say anything about where the facility was located.<br />
That was the last time I saw Airl's doll body.<br />
148
<strong>The</strong> following day I received written orders, signed by General Twining. <strong>The</strong><br />
orders said that I had completed my service to the U.S. military <strong>and</strong> was<br />
officially discharged from further duty <strong>and</strong> that I would receive an honorable<br />
discharge <strong>and</strong> a generous military pension. I would be also be relocated by the<br />
military, <strong>and</strong> given a new identity with the appropriate documents.<br />
Along with the orders I received a document that I was instructed to read <strong>and</strong><br />
sign. It was an oath of secrecy. <strong>The</strong> language of the document was full of<br />
"legalese", but the point was very clearly made that I was to never, ever discuss<br />
anything whatsoever with anyone whatsoever about anything whatsoever that I<br />
has seen, heard or experienced during my service in the military -- under pain of<br />
death as an Act of Treason against the United States of America!<br />
As it turned out, I was placed into a Federal government witness protection<br />
program 240 (Footnote), except that I would be protected from the government by<br />
the government. In other words, as long as I stayed quiet I could stay alive!<br />
<strong>The</strong> following morning I was placed aboard a small military transport plane <strong>and</strong><br />
flown to a relocation destination. After being shuttled to several locations for<br />
short periods, I eventually I ended up in Glasgow, Montana near Fort Peck.<br />
<strong>The</strong> night before I was scheduled to board the transport plane, as I lay in bed<br />
contemplating the whole affair <strong>and</strong> wondering what happened to Airl, <strong>and</strong> to me,<br />
I suddenly heard Airl's "voice". I sat bolt upright in my bed <strong>and</strong> turned on the<br />
light on the night st<strong>and</strong>! I looked around the room frantically for a few seconds.<br />
<strong>The</strong>n I realized that it was Airl, the IS-BE. Her body was not in the room with<br />
me, of course, <strong>and</strong> it didn't need to be.<br />
She said "Hello!". <strong>The</strong> tone of her thought was plain <strong>and</strong> friendly. It was<br />
unmistakably Airl. I did not have the least doubt about that!<br />
I thought, "Airl? Are you still here?" She answered that she was "here", but<br />
not in a body on <strong>Earth</strong>. She had returned to her post at <strong>The</strong> Domain base when<br />
the doctor <strong>and</strong> MPs attacked us in the interview room. She was pleased to<br />
perceive that I was well, <strong>and</strong> that I was going to be released unharmed.<br />
I wondered how she escaped from them. I was worried that they might have<br />
injured Airl by the shock machine. Airl said that she was able to leave the body<br />
before the shock was administered <strong>and</strong> avoided the electric current running<br />
through the body. She wanted to let me know that she was safe <strong>and</strong> not to worry<br />
about her. I was very relieved, to say the least!<br />
I asked Airl if I would every see her again. Airl reassured me that we are both<br />
IS-BEs. We are not a physical bodies. Now that she had located me in space<br />
<strong>and</strong> time we would always stay in communication. Airl wished me well <strong>and</strong> my<br />
communication with her ended for the moment."<br />

transcripts <strong>and</strong> the other notes of explanation I received in the envelope<br />
from Mrs. MacElroy. This is what the message said:<br />
"<strong>The</strong> other documents in this envelope are the end of<br />
the story, as far as what happened back in 1947.<br />
However, several months after the government got me<br />
settled at my final relocation destination, I<br />
continued my communication with Airl on a regular<br />
basis.<br />
It has been almost exactly 40 years since the crash<br />
at Roswell. Since then it has become obvious to me<br />
that I have been able to communicate telepathically<br />
with Airl for one reason: I am one of the 3,000<br />
members of the Lost Battalion. At this time, all of<br />
the members of the Lost Battalion have been located<br />
on <strong>Earth</strong> as a result of <strong>The</strong> Domain Annunaki Mission<br />
<strong>and</strong> their use of the "Tree of Life" detection device.<br />
Through my communication with Airl, I have recovered<br />
some of my memory of lives I've spent on <strong>Earth</strong> over<br />
the past 8,000 years. Most of these memories are not<br />
especially important compared to the long backtrack<br />
of events, but it has been a necessary stepping stone<br />
to regaining my awareness <strong>and</strong> ability as an IS-BE.<br />
I can also remember some dim patches of my life in<br />
<strong>The</strong> Domain Expeditionary Force. I was a nurse there<br />
too. For the most part I've been a nurse over <strong>and</strong><br />
over <strong>and</strong> over again down through the ages. I stick<br />
with being a nurse because it is familiar to me. And,<br />
I enjoy the work of helping people, as well as<br />
members of the race of biological beings in <strong>The</strong><br />
Domain whose bodies look more like insects than<br />
mammals, especially their h<strong>and</strong>s. Even doll bodies<br />
need some repair once in awhile, too.<br />
As I remember more about my past, I realize that the<br />
rest of my life is in the future. Eternity is not<br />
just in the past. Eternity is in the future. At<br />
150
this point I am still not able to fully return to <strong>The</strong><br />
Domain. I am sentenced to eternal imprisonment, like<br />
all other IS-BEs in the living Hell called <strong>Earth</strong>,<br />
until we can disable the "Old Empire" force screens.<br />
Because I won't keep my biological body much longer<br />
now, I am intensely aware that very soon I will be<br />
recycled through the amnesia process of the "Old<br />
Empire", <strong>and</strong> stuck back into another baby body to<br />
start all over again -- without any memory of what<br />
went before.<br />
As you know, members of <strong>The</strong> Domain Expeditionary<br />
Force have been working to solve this problem for<br />
thous<strong>and</strong>s of years. Airl says that even though <strong>The</strong><br />
Domain has located all of the Lost Battalion officers<br />
<strong>and</strong> crew, the success of freeing them depends on the<br />
IS-BEs who are already on <strong>Earth</strong>. <strong>The</strong> Domain Central<br />
Comm<strong>and</strong> cannot authorize any personnel or resources,<br />
at this time, to conduct a "rescue mission" as this<br />
in not the primary mission of <strong>The</strong> Domain<br />
Expeditionary Force in this galaxy.<br />
So, if IS-BEs on <strong>Earth</strong> are going to escape from this<br />
prison, it will have to be an "inside job", so to<br />
speak. <strong>The</strong> inmates will have to figure out how to<br />
get themselves out. Various methods of recovering<br />
the memory <strong>and</strong> ability of IS-BEs have been developed<br />
over the past 10,000 years on <strong>Earth</strong>, but none have<br />
proven to be consistently effective so far.<br />
Airl mentioned that the most significant breakthrough<br />
was made by Gautama Siddhartha about 2,500 years ago.<br />
However, the original teachings <strong>and</strong> techniques taught<br />
by <strong>The</strong> Buddha have been altered or lost over the<br />
millennia since then. <strong>The</strong> practical techniques of<br />
his philosophy were perverted into robotic religious<br />
rituals by priests as a self-serving instrument of<br />
control or slavery.<br />
However, another major advance occurred recently. An<br />
acquaintance of <strong>The</strong> Comm<strong>and</strong>ing Officer of <strong>The</strong> Domain<br />
Expeditionary Force Space Station is an IS-BE who had<br />
once been an important engineer <strong>and</strong> officer in the<br />
"Old Empire" Space Fleet. He become an "untouchable"<br />
himself about 10,000 years ago <strong>and</strong> was sentenced to<br />
<strong>Earth</strong> for leading a mutiny against the oppressive<br />
151
egime of the "Old Empire". <strong>The</strong> engineer was trained<br />
in Advanced Scientific Improvisation <strong>The</strong>ory thous<strong>and</strong>s<br />
of years ago. This man has applied his expertise to<br />
helping <strong>The</strong> Domain solve the apparently unsolvable<br />
problem of rescuing the members of the Lost<br />
Battalion, as well as the IS-BEs on <strong>Earth</strong>.<br />
Careful observation <strong>and</strong> experimental analysis of the<br />
mechanics of memory in IS-BEs by he <strong>and</strong> his wife, who<br />
assisted him, led to the realization that IS-BEs can<br />
recover from amnesia <strong>and</strong> also regain lost abilities.<br />
Together they discovered <strong>and</strong> developed effective<br />
methods that they used to rehabilitate their own<br />
memories. <strong>The</strong>y eventually codified their methods so<br />
that others can safely be trained to apply them to<br />
themselves <strong>and</strong> others, without detection by the "Old<br />
Empire" thought control operators.<br />
<strong>The</strong>ir research also revealed that IS-BEs can occupy<br />
<strong>and</strong> operate more than one body at the same time --<br />
a fact that previously was thought to be uniquely<br />
limited to officers of <strong>The</strong> Domain.<br />
One example of this fact is that the engineer, in a<br />
previous lifetime on <strong>Earth</strong>, was Suleiman <strong>The</strong><br />
Magnificent 241 (Footnote). His assistant was a harem girl<br />
who rose up from slavery to become his wife <strong>and</strong> rule<br />
the Ottoman empire with him. 242 (Footnote) Simultaneously,<br />
she inhabited another body <strong>and</strong> ruled her own empire<br />
as Queen Elizabeth. 243 (Footnote) As the Queen of Engl<strong>and</strong>,<br />
she never married, because she was already married to<br />
the Sultan of the Ottoman Empire!<br />
In a later life he was incarnated as Cecil Rhodes.<br />
244 (Footnote). During his life as Rhodes she was, again,<br />
a princess, this time from Pol<strong>and</strong>. 245 (Footnote) As such,<br />
she pursued Rhodes unsuccessfully toward the end of<br />
his life. However, in their next incarnation they met<br />
again, were married, had a family, <strong>and</strong> again, worked<br />
together successfully all of their lives.<br />
Several other notable examples of this phenomena were<br />
observed. For example, the process of refining steel<br />
was invented by the same IS-BE who inhabited two<br />
bodies simultaneously. One was named Kelly 246 (Footnote)<br />
who lived in Kentucky, <strong>and</strong> the other was a man named<br />
152
Bessemer 247 (Footnote) who lived in Engl<strong>and</strong>. <strong>The</strong>y both<br />
conceived the same process at the same time.<br />
Another example is Alex<strong>and</strong>er Graham Bell 248 (Footnote) the<br />
inventor of the telephone, which was invented by<br />
several others at the same time, including Elisha<br />
Gray. 249 (Footnote) <strong>The</strong> telephone was conceived<br />
concurrently in several locations around the world<br />
all at once. This was a single IS-BE of such<br />
tremendous energy <strong>and</strong> ability that he was able to<br />
operate several bodies in several different locations<br />
while conducting complex research work!<br />
Thanks to these revelations, <strong>The</strong> Domain has been able<br />
to return some of IS-BEs of the Lost Battalion to<br />
active duty on a limited, part-time basis. For<br />
example, two young girls who occupy biological bodies<br />
on <strong>Earth</strong> are now, at the same time, working as active<br />
members of <strong>The</strong> Domain Expeditionary Force on the<br />
asteroid space station as operators of a<br />
communication switchboard. <strong>The</strong>se operators relay<br />
messages between <strong>The</strong> Domain Expeditionary Force <strong>and</strong><br />
<strong>The</strong> Domain Comm<strong>and</strong> Headquarters.<br />
Recently, I, myself have been able to resume some of<br />
my own duties for <strong>The</strong> Domain Expeditionary Force<br />
while continuing to live on <strong>Earth</strong>. This is not an<br />
easy task however, <strong>and</strong> can only be done while my<br />
biological body is sleeping.<br />
It makes me very, very happy to know that we may not<br />
have to stay on <strong>Earth</strong> forever! <strong>The</strong>re is hope of<br />
escape, not just for the Lost Battalion, but for many<br />
other IS-BEs on <strong>Earth</strong>.<br />
However, all IS-BEs could be helped to become more<br />
aware of the actual situation on <strong>Earth</strong> through the<br />
information in this envelope. This is why I sent<br />
these letters <strong>and</strong> transcripts to you. I want you to<br />
get these documents published. I want IS-BEs on<br />
<strong>Earth</strong> to have a chance to find out what is really<br />
happening on <strong>Earth</strong>.<br />
Most people will not believe any of it, I'm sure. It<br />
seems too incredible. No "reasonable" person would<br />
ever believe a word of it. However, it only seems<br />
"incredible" to an IS-BE whose memory has been erased<br />
153
<strong>and</strong> replaced with false information inside the<br />
electronically controlled illusion of a prison<br />
planet. We must not allow the apparent incredibility<br />
of our situation to prevent us from confronting the<br />
reality of it.<br />
Frankly, "reasons" have nothing to do with reality.<br />
<strong>The</strong>re are no reasons. Things are what they are. If<br />
we don't face the facts of our situation, we're going<br />
to stay under the thumb of the "Old Empire" forever!<br />
<strong>The</strong> biggest weapon the "Old Empire" has left now is<br />
our ignorance of what they are doing to all the IS-<br />
BEs on <strong>Earth</strong>. Disbelief <strong>and</strong> secrecy are the most<br />
effective weapons they have!<br />
<strong>The</strong> government agencies that classified the enclosed<br />
transcripts as "TOP SECRET" are run by IS-BEs who are<br />
nothing more than mindless automatons covertly<br />
ordered about through hypnotic comm<strong>and</strong>s given by the<br />
"Old Empire" prison operators. <strong>The</strong>y are the<br />
unknowing slaves of unseen slave masters -- <strong>and</strong> all<br />
the more enslaved by their willingness to be slaves.<br />
Most of the IS-BEs on <strong>Earth</strong> are good, honest, able<br />
beings: artists, managers, geniuses, free thinkers<br />
<strong>and</strong> revolutionaries who have harmed no one, really.<br />
<strong>The</strong>y are no threat to anyone except the criminals who<br />
have imprisoned them.<br />
<strong>The</strong>y must find out about the "Old Empire" amnesia <strong>and</strong><br />
hypnosis operation. <strong>The</strong>y must remember their own past<br />
lives. <strong>The</strong> only way this will ever happen is to<br />
communicate, coordinate <strong>and</strong> fight back. We have to<br />
tell other people <strong>and</strong> they have to discuss it openly<br />
with each other. Communication is the only effective<br />
weapon against secrecy <strong>and</strong> oppression.<br />
This is why I am asking you to tell this story.<br />
Please share these transcripts with as many people as<br />
you can. If the people of <strong>Earth</strong> are told what is<br />
really going on here, perhaps they will begin to<br />
remember who they are, <strong>and</strong> where they came from.<br />
For now, we can begin our own release <strong>and</strong> rescue with<br />
words. We can be free again. We can be ourselves<br />
again. Perhaps I will meet you in person, with or<br />
without a body, somewhere in our Eternal Future.<br />

1 "..."War of the Worlds, <strong>and</strong> <strong>The</strong> Invasion from Mars"..."<br />
"... the day before Halloween, on Oct. 30, 1938, when millions of Americans tuned in to a<br />
popular radio program that featured plays directed by, <strong>and</strong> often starring, Orson Welles. <strong>The</strong><br />
performance that evening was an adaptation of the science fiction novel <strong>The</strong> War of the<br />
Worlds, about a Martian invasion of the <strong>Earth</strong>. But in adapting the book for a radio play,<br />
Welles made an important change: under his direction the play was written <strong>and</strong> performed<br />
so it would sound like a news broadcast about an invasion from Mars, a technique that,<br />
presumably, was intended to heighten the dramatic effect.<br />
As the play unfolded, dance music was interrupted a number of times by fake news bulletins<br />
reporting that a "huge flaming object" had dropped on a farm near Grovers Mill, New Jersey.<br />
As members of the audience sat on the edge of their collective seat, actors playing news<br />
announcers, officials <strong>and</strong> other roles one would expect to hear in a news report, described<br />
the l<strong>and</strong>ing of an invasion force from Mars <strong>and</strong> the destruction of the United States. <strong>The</strong><br />
broadcast also contained a number of explanations that it was all a radio play, but if<br />
members of the audience missed a brief explanation at the beginning, the next one didn't<br />
arrive until 40 minutes into the program.<br />
At one point in the broadcast, an actor in a studio, playing a newscaster in the field,<br />
described the emergence of one of the aliens from its spacecraft. "Good heavens,<br />
something's wriggling out of the shadow like a gray snake," he said, in an appropriately<br />
dramatic tone of voice. "Now it's another one, <strong>and</strong> another. <strong>The</strong>y look like tentacles to me.<br />
<strong>The</strong>re, I can see the thing's body. It's large as a bear <strong>and</strong> it glistens like wet leather. But that<br />
face. It...it's indescribable. I can hardly force myself to keep looking at it. <strong>The</strong> eyes are black<br />
<strong>and</strong> gleam like a serpent. <strong>The</strong> mouth is V-shaped with saliva dripping from its rimless lips<br />
that seem to quiver <strong>and</strong> pulsate....<strong>The</strong> thing is raising up. <strong>The</strong> crowd falls back. <strong>The</strong>y've seen<br />
enough. This is the most extraordinary experience. I can't find words. I'm pulling this<br />
microphone with me as I talk. I'll have to stop the description until I've taken a new position.<br />
Hold on, will you please, I'll be back in a minute."<br />
As it listened to this simulation of a news broadcast the audience concluded that it was<br />
hearing an actual news account of an invasion from Mars. People packed the roads,<br />
hid in cellars, loaded guns, even wrapped their heads in wet towels as protection from<br />
Martian poison gas, in an attempt to defend themselves against aliens, oblivious to<br />
the fact that they were acting out the role of the panic-stricken public that actually<br />
belonged in a radio play.<br />
News of the panic (which was conveyed via genuine news reports) quickly generated<br />
a national sc<strong>and</strong>al. <strong>The</strong>re were calls, which never went anywhere, for government<br />
regulations of broadcasting to ensure that a similar incident wouldn't happen again.<br />
In a prescient column, in the New York Tribune, Dorothy Thompson foresaw that the<br />
broadcast revealed the way politicians could use the power of mass communications<br />
to create theatrical illusions, to manipulate the public."<br />

2 "...Majestic-12 documents."<br />
158
"Majestic 12" or "MJ-12". (NOTE: All of the following information <strong>and</strong>/or assertions<br />
concerning the MJ-12 documents are those of the authors of the following website:<br />
http://www.majesticdocuments.com)<br />
"Operation Majestic-12 was established by special classified presidential order on<br />
September 24, 1947 at the recommendation of Secretary of Defense James Forrestal <strong>and</strong><br />
Dr. Vannevar Bush, Chairman of the Joint Research <strong>and</strong> Development Board. <strong>The</strong> goal of<br />
the group was to exploit everything they could from recovered alien technology.<br />
Buried in a super-secret "MAJIC EYES ONLY" classification that was above TOP SECRET<br />
— long before the modern top secret codeword special access programs of today — Major<br />
General Leslie R. Groves (who comm<strong>and</strong>ed the Manhattan Project to deliver the atomic<br />
bomb) kept just one copy of the details of crashed alien technology in his safe in<br />
Washington, D.C.<br />
Ambitious, elite scientists such as Vannevar Bush, Albert Einstein, <strong>and</strong> Robert<br />
Oppenheimer, <strong>and</strong> career military people such as Hoyt V<strong>and</strong>enberg, Roscoe Hillenkoetter,<br />
Leslie Groves, <strong>and</strong> George Marshall, along with a select cast of other experts, feverishly <strong>and</strong><br />
secretively labored to underst<strong>and</strong> the alien agenda, technology, <strong>and</strong> their implications.<br />
Einstein <strong>and</strong> Oppenheimer were called in to give their opinion, drafting a six-page paper<br />
titled “Relationships With Inhabitants Of Celestial Bodies.” <strong>The</strong>y provided prophetic insight<br />
into our modern nuclear strategies <strong>and</strong> satellites, <strong>and</strong> expressed agitated urgency that an<br />
agreement be reached with the President so that scientists could proceed to study the alien<br />
technology.<br />
<strong>The</strong> extraordinary recovery of fallen airborne objects in the state of New Mexico, between<br />
July 4 – July 6, 1947, caused the Chief of Staff of the Army Air Force’s Interplanetary<br />
Phenomena Unit, Scientific <strong>and</strong> Technical Branch, Counterintelligence Directorate to initiate<br />
a thorough investigation. <strong>The</strong> special unit was formed in 1942 in response to two crashes in<br />
the Los Angeles area in late February 1942. <strong>The</strong> draft summary report begins “At 2332 MST,<br />
3 July 47, radar stations in east Texas <strong>and</strong> White S<strong>and</strong>s Proving Ground, N.M. tracked two<br />
unidentified aircraft until they both dropped off radar. Two crash sites have been located<br />
close to the WSPG. Site LZ-1 was located at a ranch near Corona, Approx. 75 miles<br />
northwest of the town of Roswell. Site LZ-2 was located approx. 20 miles southeast of the<br />
town of Socorro, at latitude 33-40-31 <strong>and</strong> longitude 106-28-29”.<br />
<strong>The</strong> first-ever-known UFO crash retrieval case occurred in 1941 in Cape Girardeau,<br />
Missouri. This crash kicked off early reverse-engineering work, but it did not create a unified<br />
intelligence effort to exploit possible technological gains apart from the Manhattan Project<br />
uses.<br />
<strong>The</strong> debris from the primary field of the 1947 crash 20 miles southeast of Socorro, New<br />
Mexico was called ULAT-1 (Unidentified Lenticular Aerodyne Technology), <strong>and</strong> it excited<br />
metallurgists with its unheard-of tensile <strong>and</strong> shear strengths. <strong>The</strong> fusion nuclear (called<br />
neutronic at that time) engine used heavy water <strong>and</strong> deuterium with an oddly arranged<br />
series of coils, magnets, <strong>and</strong> electrodes — descriptions that resemble the “cold fusion”<br />
studies of today.<br />
Harry Truman kept the technical briefing documents of September 24, 1947 for further study,<br />
pondering the challenges of creating <strong>and</strong> funding a secret organization before the CIA<br />
159
existed (although the Central Intelligence Group or CIG did exist) <strong>and</strong> before there was a<br />
legal procedure of funding non-war operations.<br />
In April 1954, a group of senior officers of the U.S. intelligence community <strong>and</strong> the Armed<br />
Forces gathered for one of the most secret <strong>and</strong> sensational briefings in history. <strong>The</strong> subject<br />
was Unidentified Flying Objects — not just a discussion of sightings, but how to recover<br />
crashed UFOs, where to ship the parts, <strong>and</strong> how to deal with the occupants. For example, in<br />
the “Special Operations Manual (SOM1-01) Extraterrestrial Entities Technology Recovery<br />
<strong>and</strong> Disposal,” MAJESTIC–12 “red teams” mapped out UFO crash retrieval scenarios with<br />
special attention given to press blackouts, body packaging, <strong>and</strong> live alien transport, isolation,<br />
<strong>and</strong> custody.<br />
Majestic Documents.com is not another rehash of the famous Roswell story — it contains<br />
over 500 pages (<strong>and</strong> growing) of newly surfaced documents, many of which date years<br />
before the Roswell crash. Unlike other websites, a central theme of validating authenticity is<br />
woven throughout the site while telling the exciting story of the U.S. government's work on<br />
retrieval <strong>and</strong> analysis of extraterrestrial hardware <strong>and</strong> alien life forms from 1941 to present."<br />

3 "Like Ripley said..."<br />
Robert LeRoy Ripley (December 25, 1893 - May 27, 1949) was a cartoonist, entrepreneur,<br />
<strong>and</strong> amateur anthropologist who created the world famous Ripley's Believe It or Not!<br />
newspaper panel series, featuring odd but true facts from around the world. Subjects<br />
covered in Ripley's cartoons <strong>and</strong> text ranged from sports feats to little known facts about<br />
unusual <strong>and</strong> exotic sites, but what ensured the concept's popularity may have been that<br />
Ripley also included items submitted by readers, who supplied photographs of a wide variety<br />
of small town American trivia, ranging from unusually shaped vegetables to oddly marked<br />
domestic animals, all documented by photographs <strong>and</strong> then engagingly depicted by Ripley's<br />
prolific pen."<br />
-- Reference: Wikipedia.org<br />
4 "...Voltaire..."<br />
"François-Marie Arouet (21 November 1694 – 30 May 1778), better known by the pen<br />
name Voltaire, was a French Enlightenment writer, essayist, deist <strong>and</strong> philosopher known<br />
for his wit, philosophical sport, <strong>and</strong> defense of civil liberties, including freedom of religion <strong>and</strong><br />
the right to a fair trial. He was an outspoken supporter of social reform despite strict<br />
censorship laws <strong>and</strong> harsh penalties for those who broke them. A satirical polemicist, he<br />
frequently made use of his works to criticize Christian Church dogma <strong>and</strong> the French<br />
institutions of his day. Many of Voltaire's works <strong>and</strong> ideas would influence important thinkers<br />
of both the American <strong>and</strong> French Revolutions."<br />
-- Reference: Wikipedia.org<br />
5 "...personal Hell..."<br />
"<strong>The</strong> modern English word Hell is derived from Old English hel, helle (about 725 AD) <strong>and</strong><br />
ultimately from Proto-Germanic halja, meaning "one who covers up or hides something".<br />
160
-- Reference: Wikipedia.org<br />
6 "...Top Secret"...<br />
"Top Secret is the highest acknowledged level of classified information in many countries,<br />
where it is defined as material that would cause "exceptionally grave damage" to national<br />
security if disclosed. <strong>The</strong> term top secret can be applied to information, actions,<br />
organizations, projects, etc. of which any knowledge is highly restricted."<br />
-- Reference: Wikipedia.org<br />
7 "... self-administered euthanasia...."<br />
"<strong>The</strong> term euthanasia comes from the greek words "eu" <strong>and</strong> "thanatos" which combined<br />
means “well-death” or "dying well". Hippocrates mentions euthanasia in the Hippocratic<br />
Oath, which was written between 400 <strong>and</strong> 300 B.C. <strong>The</strong> ancient Greeks <strong>and</strong> Romans<br />
generally did not believe that life needed to be preserved at any cost <strong>and</strong> were, in<br />
consequence, tolerant of suicide in cases where no relief could be offered to the dying or, in<br />
the case of the Stoics <strong>and</strong> Epicureans, where a person no longer cared for his life."<br />
-- Reference: Wikipedia.org<br />
8 "...County Meath, Irel<strong>and</strong>..."<br />
"Meath (the "middle") was formed from the eastern part of the province of Midhe - see Kings<br />
of Mide - but now forms part of Leinster. Historically this province of Meath included all of the<br />
current county as well as all of Westmeath <strong>and</strong> parts of Cavan, Longford, Louth, Offaly,<br />
Dublin <strong>and</strong> Kildare. <strong>The</strong> High King of Irel<strong>and</strong> sat at Tara in Meath. <strong>The</strong> archaeological<br />
complex of Brú na Bóinne is 5,000 years old <strong>and</strong> includes the burial sites of Newgrange,<br />
Knowth <strong>and</strong> Dowth, in the northeast of the county."<br />
-- Reference: Wikipedia.org<br />
9 "...<strong>The</strong> Great Mound" at Knowth, <strong>and</strong> Dowth, the "Fairy Mound of Darkness". <strong>The</strong>se<br />
are sacred "cairns" or massive stone structures that were erected about 3,700 BCE<br />
<strong>and</strong> engraved with indecipherable hieroglyphs..."<br />
"<strong>The</strong> astronomical significance of Kerbstone 51, the "Stone of the Seven Suns", at Dowth:<br />
If moonlight were to shine on the back stone of the eastern passage at Knowth, it would<br />
illuminate a map of the moon itself, the world's oldest known depiction of the lunar maria*.<br />
<strong>The</strong> carvings are about 4800 years old. <strong>The</strong> next oldest depiction of the maria known to<br />
science is that by Leonardo da Vinci in about 1505 AD.<br />
* Lunar maria (singular: mare, two syllables) are large, dark, basaltic plains on <strong>Earth</strong>'s<br />
Moon, formed by ancient volcanic eruptions. <strong>The</strong>y were dubbed maria, Latin for "seas", by<br />
early astronomers who mistook them for actual seas. <strong>The</strong>y are less reflective than the<br />
"highl<strong>and</strong>s" as a result of their iron-rich compositions, <strong>and</strong> hence appear dark to the naked<br />
eye. <strong>The</strong> maria cover about 16% of the lunar surface, mostly on the near-side visible from<br />
<strong>Earth</strong>. <strong>The</strong> few maria on the far-side are much smaller, residing mostly in very large craters<br />
where only a small amount of flooding occurred. -- Reference: Wikipedia<br />
<strong>The</strong> mythology about Dowth speaks of a bull <strong>and</strong> seven cows, it seems likely that the site<br />
has some connection with the constellation of Taurus, the Bull, which contains the open<br />
161
cluster the Pleiades, otherwise known as "<strong>The</strong> Seven Sisters". This constellation was very<br />
important around the year 3000BC, when the Boyne Valley mounds were being constructed,<br />
as it contained the Sun on the Spring Equinox, that very important moment of the year when<br />
the Sun's path along the ecliptic crossed the celestial equator heading northwards. It is the<br />
Sun's position among the zodiac stars at this time which determines the current 'age' – i.e.<br />
the "Age of Taurus".<br />
Another interesting phenomenon which occurs at this time is what is known to astronomers<br />
as a 'heliacal rising' of the Pleiades. This happens when the stars in question rise at the<br />
eastern horizon but are quickly lost in the glare of the rising sun. It is interesting to note that<br />
the Egyptians, <strong>and</strong> the Dogon tribe in Africa, (See: <strong>The</strong> Oz Factors) among others, used the<br />
same Dowth-like 'sun-wheel' symbols to signify a heliacal rising.<br />
If these 'sun-wheel' symbols do represent the heliacal rising of the Pleiades, it tells us<br />
something very significant about the Neolithic people – they were aware of the great cycle of<br />
precession, the slow wobble of the <strong>Earth</strong>'s axis which causes the celestial pole to shift over<br />
time, resulting in the Vernal Equinox point, that place where the Sun crosses the celestial<br />
equator, moving backwards, or westwards, through the Zodiac over a huge 25,800-year<br />
period. This Vernal point moves just one degree (about two widths of the full moon) every 72<br />
years, <strong>and</strong> spends on average 2,150 years in each of the twelve constellations of the<br />
Zodiac."<br />

"...In ancient Irish religion <strong>and</strong> mythology this (Tara) was the sacred place of<br />
dwelling for the "gods"..."<br />
" Sitting on top of the King's Seat (Forradh) of Temair is the most famous of Tara's<br />
monuments - Irel<strong>and</strong>'s ancient coronation stone - the Lia Fail or "Stone of Destiny", which<br />

one of their sacred objects. It was said to roar when touched by the rightful king of Tara.<br />
A new theory suggests Tara was the ancient capital of the lost kingdom of Atlantis. <strong>The</strong><br />
mythical l<strong>and</strong> of Atlantis was Irel<strong>and</strong>, according to a new book. <strong>The</strong>re are a large number of<br />
monuments <strong>and</strong> earthen structures on the Hill of Tara. <strong>The</strong> earliest settlement at the site was<br />
in the Neolithic, <strong>and</strong> the Mound of the Hostages was constructed in or around 2500BC."<br />

"...the Military - Industrial Complex that President Eisenhower warned us about in<br />
his farewell address..."<br />
"A military-industrial complex (MIC) is composed of a nation's armed forces, its suppliers<br />
of weapons systems, supplies <strong>and</strong> services, <strong>and</strong> its civil government.<br />
<strong>The</strong> term "MIC" is most often used in reference to the United States, where it gained<br />
popularity after its use in the farewell address of President Dwight D. Eisenhower. In the<br />
penultimate draft of the address, Eisenhower initially used the term military-industrialcongressional<br />
complex, <strong>and</strong> thus indicated the essential role that the United States<br />
Congress plays in the propagation of the military industry. But, it is said, that the president<br />
162
chose to strike the word congressional in order to placate members of the legislative branch<br />
of the federal government.<br />
It is sometimes used more broadly to include the entire network of contracts <strong>and</strong> flows of<br />
money <strong>and</strong> resources among individuals as well as institutions of the defense contractors,<br />
<strong>The</strong> Pentagon, <strong>and</strong> the Congress <strong>and</strong> Executive branch. This sector is intrinsically prone to<br />
Principal-agent problem, moral hazard, <strong>and</strong> rent seeking. Cases of political corruption have<br />
also surfaced with regularity.<br />
President of the United States (<strong>and</strong> former General of the Army) Dwight D. Eisenhower<br />
later used the term in his Farewell Address to the Nation on January 17, 1961:<br />
"A vital element in keeping the peace is our military establishment. Our arms must be<br />
mighty, ready for instant action, so that no potential aggressor may be tempted to risk his<br />
own destruction...<br />
This conjunction of an immense military establishment <strong>and</strong> a large arms industry is new in<br />
the American experience. <strong>The</strong> total influence — economic, political, even spiritual — is felt in<br />
every city, every statehouse, every office of the federal government. We recognize the<br />
imperative need for this development. Yet we must not fail to comprehend its grave<br />
implications. Our toil, resources <strong>and</strong> livelihood are all involved; so is the very structure of our<br />
society.<br />
In the councils of government, we must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted<br />
influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military-industrial complex. <strong>The</strong> potential for<br />
the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists <strong>and</strong> will persist.<br />
We must never let the weight of this combination endanger our liberties or democratic<br />
processes. We should take nothing for granted. Only an alert <strong>and</strong> knowledgeable citizenry<br />
can compel the proper meshing of the huge industrial <strong>and</strong> military machinery of defense with<br />
our peaceful methods <strong>and</strong> goals so that security <strong>and</strong> liberty may prosper together."<br />

______________________________________________________________________<br />
"When we look at the contents of the message in conjunction with witness testimony, the<br />
evidence clearly points to an actual flying saucer crash, as astonishing as this conclusion<br />
may seem to many.<br />
This testimony is gone into in much greater detail elsewhere in this Website. It consists<br />
primarily of numerous <strong>and</strong> consistent descriptions of highly anomalous debris <strong>and</strong> to a<br />
lesser extent of alien bodies. Here are a few key witnesses:<br />
Major Jesse Marcel: <strong>The</strong>n the intelligence chief at Roswell <strong>and</strong> the first to investigate<br />
sheep rancher Mack Brazel's find, Marcel confirmed in a number of interviews 30 years later<br />
that the crash debris had highly anomalous properties <strong>and</strong> was "not of this <strong>Earth</strong>." Marcel<br />
also spoke of Ramey's weather balloon cover-up at Fort Worth. Note particularly highly<br />
laudatory post-Roswell evaluations by base comm<strong>and</strong>er Col. William Blanchard, Gen.<br />
Ramey, <strong>and</strong> future USAF Chief of Staff Col. John Ryan.<br />
Lt. Walter Haut: Former Roswell base public information officer who issued the base press<br />
release. Haut's "deathbed" sealed affidavit has just been published. In it he confesses to<br />
seeing the spacecraft <strong>and</strong> bodies in base Hangar 84/P-3 <strong>and</strong> tells us the mysterious press<br />
release was General Ramey's idea to divert press <strong>and</strong> public attention away from the closer<br />
<strong>and</strong> more important craft/body site.<br />
Sgt Frederick Benthal: Army photographer flown in from Washington D.C., said he<br />
photographed alien bodies in a tent at crash site <strong>and</strong> saw large quantities of crash debris<br />
being hauled away in trucks.<br />
PFC Elias Benjamin: Roswell MP, said he escorted the alien bodies from the heavily<br />
guarded base Hangar P-3 to the base hospital, <strong>and</strong> saw a live one being worked on by<br />
doctors; was threatened afterwards if he didn't keep quiet.<br />
1st Lt. Chester P. Barton: A crypto specialist <strong>and</strong> assigned to an MP unit, Barton said he<br />
was ordered to the crash site 45 minutes north of town to check on the cleanup, saw a<br />
football-field-size burn impact area heavily guarded by MPs, scattered metal debris, was told<br />
radiation was at the site, heard archeologists had first discovered it, <strong>and</strong> also heard bodies<br />
were taken to base hospital <strong>and</strong> then to Fort Worth. Because of what he saw, he knew that<br />
the balloon explanation was ridiculous <strong>and</strong> there had been a cover-up. However, Barton<br />
was unusual in being a flying saucer crash skeptic, instead thinking that it was maybe a B-29<br />
crash <strong>and</strong> nuclear accident.<br />
Bill Brazel Jr.: Rancher Mack Brazel's son, Bill Brazel independently corroborated many<br />
details of Marcel's testimony, including the strange debris, the large, elongated debris field,<br />
<strong>and</strong> his father's story of an explosion in the middle of a violent electrical storm.<br />
Louis Rickett: One of the regular Army CIC agents in Marcel's office, Rickett confirmed the<br />
anomalous quality of the debris, a major cleanup operation at Brazel's ranch, high secrecy,<br />
<strong>and</strong> being involved in a subsequent investigation to determine the trajectory of the craft. He<br />
164
was also told by others about the shape of the main craft. Like Chester Barton, he placed<br />
the main impact site a 45 minute drive north of Roswell.<br />
Brig. Gen. Arthur Exon: Though not a direct participant, Exon was stationed at Wright<br />
Field at the time, over flew the area soon afterwards, <strong>and</strong> was later comm<strong>and</strong>ing officer of<br />
Wright-Patterson AFB. Exon when first interviewed flatly stated, "Roswell was the recovery<br />
of a craft from space." Among other things, he confirmed the existence of two main crash<br />
sites. Exon also said he heard that bodies were recovered <strong>and</strong> confirmed the debris was<br />
highly anomalous based on testing done by labs at Wright-Patterson. Exon added that he<br />
was aware of other crash-recoveries that occurred while he was C/O at Wright-Patterson.<br />
Steven Lovekin (served in the White House Army Signal Corp during Eisenhower <strong>and</strong><br />
Kennedy administrations, 1959-1961) Although like Exon not a direct participant, Lovekin<br />
said he received 1959 Pentagon briefings <strong>and</strong> being shown a metallic beam with symbols<br />
from a 1947 N.M. crash (presumably Roswell) plus being told of either 3 or 5 aliens being<br />
recovered, one initially alive. He also said he was shown very compelling photographic<br />
<strong>and</strong> radar evidence of UFOs. He also testified of the threats against military personnel given<br />
this information if they were to publicly reveal it. Finally, he told of Eisenhower's concern<br />
over losing control of the situation with power falling into the h<strong>and</strong>s of private corporations<br />
given access to the materials.<br />
Brig. Gen. Thomas Dubose: Gen. Ramey's Chief of Staff in 1947, Dubose h<strong>and</strong>led the<br />
high-level phone communications between Roswell, Fort Worth, <strong>and</strong> Washington. Dubose<br />
went on record many times about the high secrecy involved (including the matter going<br />
directly to the White House), receiving direct orders from Washington to instigate a cover-up,<br />
Gen. Ramey's weather balloon cover story, <strong>and</strong> a highly secret shipment of debris from<br />
Roswell to Fort Worth, Washington, <strong>and</strong> Wright Field. Dubose's damning testimony made<br />
him a complete nonentity in the Air Force's 1995 Roswell report, which didn't even bother to<br />
identify him in the photos taken of Gen. Ramey with his weather balloon. (Visit the website<br />
to view Dubose's Air Force biography, his sworn affidavit, <strong>and</strong> a more detailed discussion of<br />
his testimony which the Air Force was so eager to avoid.)<br />
Sgt. Robert Slusher <strong>and</strong> PFC Lloyd Thompson: Crew members on a mysterious B-29<br />
flight from Roswell to Fort Worth on July 9, 1947, transporting a large wooden crate in the<br />
bomb bay surrounded by an armed guard. Upon arrival, the plane was met by high brass<br />
<strong>and</strong> a mortician. This is probably the flight referred to in the Ramey memo that would ship<br />
whatever was "in the 'disc'" to Fort Worth by a B-29 Special Transport plane. New witnesses<br />
to the flight, including daughter of the head security guard, saying that alien bodies were<br />
inside the crate.<br />
Frank Kaufmann: A highly controversial witness claiming to be one of the exclusive<br />
members of a special CIC-team (Army Counter-Intelligence Corp) in charge of the Roswell<br />
recovery operation. Nonetheless, some of Kaufmann's claims seem to be corroborated by<br />
the Ramey message, including the existence of such a team, the recovery of an intact "disk"<br />
with bodies inside about 35 miles north of Roswell base, <strong>and</strong> the special team being<br />
responsible for the initial Roswell base press release. Kaufmann also testified to knowing of<br />
a wooden crate guarded in a hangar with the bodies packed inside awaiting shipment,<br />
perhaps the same crate independently described by Slusher <strong>and</strong> Thompson.<br />
Glenn Dennis: A Roswell mortician <strong>and</strong> another highly controversial witness, Dennis spoke<br />
of receiving strange calls from the base about preservation techniques <strong>and</strong> child-sized<br />
coffins. Dennis also claimed to be at the Roswell base hospital, seeing unusual debris in the<br />
back of an ambulance including a pod-like object perhaps alluded to in the Ramey message,<br />
165
<strong>and</strong> being threatened. He also claimed to know a Roswell nurse who assisted in a<br />
preliminary autopsy at the base hospital <strong>and</strong> who described the aliens to him.<br />
<strong>The</strong> nurse subsequently disappeared. However, attempts to identify the mystery nurse have<br />
proven to be a complete failure after Dennis provided a false name. However, also see<br />
some corroborative evidence immediately following Dennis' affidavit, such as David<br />
Wagnon, a medical technician, who remembered the nurse fitting Dennis' description, as did<br />
Pete Anaya, who said the pretty nurse he knew <strong>and</strong> encountered at the base hangar telling<br />
him of the bodies there subsequently disappeared.<br />
Roswell police chief L. M. Hall stated that Dennis was telling him of calls from the base about<br />
small coffins for the aliens only a few days after the crashed saucer story broke in the<br />
Roswell papers. Similarly, S/Sgt. Milton Sprouse also said he heard of the coffin call from<br />
Dennis <strong>and</strong> a medic friend told him of the alien bodies <strong>and</strong> autopsy at the hospital.<br />
<strong>The</strong> medic <strong>and</strong> doctors <strong>and</strong> nurses involved in the autopsy all immediately were<br />
transferred <strong>and</strong> their fate remained unknown. In addition, other independent witnesses<br />
have provided first <strong>and</strong> second-h<strong>and</strong> testimony about small bodies being found with details<br />
very similar to those provided by Dennis, including Walter Haut, Frederick Benthal, Eli<br />
Benjamin, <strong>and</strong> relatives of "Pappy" Henderson.<br />
Family <strong>and</strong> friends of Oliver "Pappy" Henderson: Henderson was one of the senior pilots<br />
at Roswell. When the first public stories of a Roswell saucer crash began circulating in<br />
1981, Henderson confided to family <strong>and</strong> friends of being the pilot who flew bodies of the<br />
aliens <strong>and</strong> crash wreckage to Wright Field. He also claimed to have seen the craft <strong>and</strong><br />
bodies, <strong>and</strong> provided a description of the aliens.<br />
Sgt. Robert E. Smith: A member of an air transport unit at Roswell, Smith said he helped<br />
load crates filled with debris for transport by C-54's, including one flown by Henderson <strong>and</strong><br />
his crew. Smith was also among the witnesses to describe the mysterious "memory foil"<br />
which he said was in the crates. He further described strangers to the base dressed in<br />
plainclothes <strong>and</strong> flashing ID cards for some unknown project, perhaps part of the special<br />
CIC-team mentioned in the Ramey memo <strong>and</strong> by Frank Kaufmann. Finally he claimed that<br />
distant cousin of his was with the Secret Service <strong>and</strong> was there at the base representing<br />
President Truman. (<strong>The</strong> same name was also provided by Kaufmann.)<br />
S/Sgt. Earl V. Fulford: In the engineering squadron, Fulford said he participated in the large<br />
debris field cleanup guarded by MPs, h<strong>and</strong>led the mysterious "memory foil," saw what may<br />
have been the tarped crash object on a flatbed truck being towed to Hangar 84, <strong>and</strong> in the<br />
middle of the night was made to load a large wooden crate into an idling C-54.<br />
Earl Zimmerman: Formerly with AFOSI (AF counterintelligence). While in officers' club<br />
heard many rumors about flying saucer crash <strong>and</strong> of it being investigated under the guise of<br />
an airplane crash. Several times observed Gen. Ramey <strong>and</strong> Charles Lindbergh being at<br />
base unannounced in connection with this. Like Robert Smith, spoke of seeing an unknown<br />
CIC man being at base. Col. Blanchard told him it was OK. Later worked with astronomer<br />
Dr. Lincoln LaPaz <strong>and</strong> corroborated story of Roswell CIC man Lewis Rickett that LaPaz<br />
investigated Roswell afterwards with the help of the CIC to try to determine objects<br />
trajectory. Again an airplane crash was the cover story.<br />
Lt. Robert Shirkey: <strong>The</strong>n the assistant operations officer, Shirkey witnessed the loading of<br />
the<br />
166
B-29 that took Major Marcel to Fort Worth to see Gen. Ramey. He said he saw boxes of<br />
debris being carried on board, including an I-beam with raised markings <strong>and</strong> a large piece of<br />
metal, brushed stainless steel in color, obviously not part of a tinfoil radar target. He was<br />
told it was from a flying saucer. Along with witness Robert Porter, he also stated that the<br />
plane's pilot was Deputy Comm<strong>and</strong>ing Officer Lt. Col. Payne Jennings, who was now the<br />
Acting C/O with Col. Blanchard officially on leave. Nine days later, Shirkey was abruptly<br />
transferred to the Philippines to a post that didn't exist. Jennings personally flew him to his<br />
next assignment.<br />
Sgt. Robert Porter: Was on Marcel's flight to Fort Worth <strong>and</strong> was h<strong>and</strong>ed wrapped<br />
packages of debris samples. Said that flight was piloted by Deputy base comm<strong>and</strong>er<br />
Jennings. He was told on board that the crash material was from a flying saucer. Later, they<br />
told him it was a weather balloon. Said debris was loaded onto another plane.<br />
Art McQuiddy: Former editor of the Roswell Morning Dispatch. Said base comm<strong>and</strong>er Col.<br />
Blanchard admitted to authorizing base press release <strong>and</strong> of strange material being found by<br />
his men.<br />
Judd Roberts: Co-owner of Roswell radio station KGFL owner. Spoke of how they wirerecorded<br />
an interview with rancher Mack Brazel for later airing, then withdrew it about<br />
receiving warnings from Washington about losing their license. Testified to seeing a military<br />
cordon around Brazel crash site.<br />
William Woody: Another witness to a military cordon thrown up up north of town along the<br />
main highway, blocking access to the west.<br />
Lydia Sleppy: Albuquerque teletype operator <strong>and</strong> one of earliest witnesses. Stated that the<br />
story phoned in from field by Roswell radio reporter Johnny McBoyle about seeing the<br />
crashed saucer <strong>and</strong> hearing of bodies was intercepted <strong>and</strong> cut-off on the teletype wire by the<br />
FBI.<br />
Loretta Proctor: Neighbor of rancher Mack Brazel. Brazel told her <strong>and</strong> her husb<strong>and</strong> of<br />
finding strange material before going to Roswell, <strong>and</strong> showing them a wood-like piece that<br />
couldn't be cut or burned. <strong>The</strong>y advised him to go to Roswell <strong>and</strong> report it. Brazel was<br />
detained at the base <strong>and</strong> complained bitterly of his treatment when he returned.<br />
Sally Strickl<strong>and</strong> Tadolini: Another neighbor of Brazel's. Although only 9 years old at the<br />
time, remembered Mack Brazel's grown son Bill Brazel bringing over a piece of metalliclooking<br />
debris with memory properties to show to her family (incident corroborated by her<br />
mother). Described it as tough, resembled a smooth "fabric" like silk or satin, <strong>and</strong>, of course,<br />
unfolded itself to its original shape after being crumpled up. Independently corroborated Bill<br />
Brazel's story of finding material <strong>and</strong> also Marcel's of a metallic fabric material with memory<br />
properties which he could blow through (therefore not balloon material). Also remembered<br />
the adults talking about Mack Brazel's bad treatment at h<strong>and</strong>s of military.<br />
Dr. Jesse Marcel Jr.: 11-year old son of Major Marcel in 1947, recounts how his father<br />
woke up his mother <strong>and</strong> himself in the middle of the night when he returned from the debris<br />
field, showing them the pieces of a "flying saucer." Among other material, he distinctly<br />
remembers a small metallic "I-beam" with purplish "hieroglyphics."<br />

167
"General Roger M. Ramey was a major player in the Roswell Incident, but information on<br />
him is hard to come by. Even though he became a fairly important Air Force general in the<br />
early 1950s, for some reason the Air Force biographical Web page on their generals doesn't<br />
list him.<br />
Ramey was born in 1903 in Sulphur Springs, Texas, but grew up in Denton, Texas, about 40<br />
miles north of Fort Worth. He graduated from North Texas State Teachers College in<br />
Denton <strong>and</strong> wanted to study medicine. But he won a rodeo competition <strong>and</strong> "preferred<br />
working on a ranch to books."<br />
He was the mess sergeant in a local National Guard unit, <strong>and</strong> the captain insisted young<br />
"Cowboy" Ramey take the competitive examination for entrance to the U.S. Military<br />
Academy, winning the West Point appointment. He entered West Point in 1924.<br />
July 26,1946: Ramey wrote Roswell intelligence chief Major Jesse Marcel a commendation<br />
for his work during Crossroads, citing his important contributions to security, his h<strong>and</strong>ling of<br />
complex intelligence matters, <strong>and</strong> the perfection of his staff briefings. A year later, Marcel<br />
was to h<strong>and</strong>le the initial investigation into the strange crash debris found by rancher Mac<br />
Brazel near Roswell <strong>and</strong> fly the debris to Fort Worth for examination by Gen. Ramey.<br />
June 30, 1947: Ramey <strong>and</strong> his intelligence chief were giving press interviews <strong>and</strong><br />
debunking the new flying saucer phenomenon.<br />
July 6, 1947: Ramey spent all day attending an air show in his home town of Denton, TX<br />
(<strong>and</strong> probably visiting relatives). Meanwhile, back in Fort Worth with Ramey away from the<br />
base, his chief of staff, Brig. Gen. Thomas Dubose, said he first learned of the find at<br />
Roswell by phone from SAC acting chief of staff Gen. McMullen. According to Dubose,<br />
McMullen ordered debris samples flown immediately to Washington by "colonel courier," first<br />
stopping in Fort Worth. <strong>The</strong> whole operation was carried out under the strictest secrecy, said<br />
Dubose. McMullen ordered him not to tell anyone, not even Ramey.<br />
July 8, 1947: <strong>The</strong> infamous Roswell base flying disk press release <strong>and</strong> Ramey's subsequent<br />
debunking of it as a weather balloon. According to Dubose, McMullen ordered the cover-up<br />
in another phone call to Dubose from Washington. Both Dubose <strong>and</strong> Roswell intelligence<br />
chief Jesse Marcel said the weather balloon was not what Marcel brought from Roswell,<br />
being nothing but a cover story to get rid of the press.<br />

17 ..."Sheridan Cavitt of the Counter Intelligence Officer"...<br />
(Please see the following Footnote)<br />
18 "... I was asked to accompany Mr. Cavitt, the Counter Intelligence officer, to the<br />
crash site as the driver of his vehicle ...<br />
"Most of the testimony in this (the following) document is from the 1992 book “Crash at<br />
Corona” by Stanton Friedman <strong>and</strong> Don Berliner, published in the United States by Paragon<br />
House. That book contains lots of other interesting material, including material regarding<br />
another crash site in New Mexico.<br />
Sequence of Events:<br />
On July 2, 1947, during the evening, a flying saucer crashed on the Foster Ranch near<br />
Corona, New Mexico. <strong>The</strong> crash occurred during a severe thunderstorm. (<strong>The</strong> military base<br />
nearest the crash site is in Roswell, New Mexico; hence, Roswell is more closely associated<br />
with this event than Corona, even though Corona is closer to the crash site.)<br />
On July 3, 1947, William “Mac” Brazel (rhymes with “frazzle”) <strong>and</strong> his 7-year-old neighbor<br />
Dee Proctor found the remains of the crashed flying saucer. Brazel was foreman of<br />
the Foster Ranch. <strong>The</strong> pieces were spread out over a large area, perhaps more than half a<br />
mile long. When Brazel drove Dee back home, he showed a piece of the wreckage to Dee’s<br />
parents, Floyd <strong>and</strong> Loretta Proctor. <strong>The</strong>y all agreed the piece was unlike anything they had<br />
ever seen.<br />
On July 6, 1947, Brazel showed pieces of the wreckage to Chaves County Sheriff George<br />
Wilcox. Wilcox called Roswell Army Air Field (AAF) <strong>and</strong> talked to Major Jesse Marcel, the<br />
intelligence officer. Marcel drove to the sheriff’s office <strong>and</strong> inspected the wreckage. Marcel<br />
reported to his comm<strong>and</strong>ing officer, Colonel William “Butch” Blanchard. Blanchard ordered<br />
Marcel to get someone from the Counter Intelligence Corps, <strong>and</strong> to proceed to the ranch<br />
with Brazel, <strong>and</strong> to collect as much of the wreckage as they could load into their two<br />
vehicles.<br />
Soon after this, military police arrived at the sheriff’s office, collected the wreckage Brazel<br />
had left there, <strong>and</strong> delivered the wreckage to Blanchard’s office. <strong>The</strong> wreckage was then<br />
flown to Eighth Air Force headquarters in Fort Worth, <strong>and</strong> from there to Washington.<br />
Meanwhile, Marcel <strong>and</strong> Sheridan Cavitt of the Counter Intelligence Corps drove to the ranch<br />
with Mac Brazel. <strong>The</strong>y arrived late in the evening. <strong>The</strong>y spent the night in sleeping bags in a<br />
small out-building on the ranch, <strong>and</strong> in the morning proceeded to the crash site.<br />
On July 7, 1947, Marcel <strong>and</strong> Cavitt collected wreckage from the crash site. After filling<br />
Cavitt’s vehicle with wreckage, Marcel told Cavitt to go on ahead, that Marcel would collect<br />
more wreckage, <strong>and</strong> they would meet later back at Roswell AAF. Marcel filled his vehicle<br />
169
with wreckage. On the way back to the air field, Marcel stopped at home to show his wife<br />
<strong>and</strong> son the strange material he had found.<br />
On July 7, 1947, around 4:00 pm, Lydia Sleppy at Roswell radio station KSWS began<br />
transmitting a story on the teletype machine regarding a crashed flying saucer out on<br />
the Foster Ranch. Transmission was interrupted, seemingly by the FBI.<br />
On July 8, 1947, in the morning, Marcel <strong>and</strong> Cavitt arrived back at Roswell AAF with two<br />
carloads of wreckage. Marcel accompanied this wreckage, or most it, on a flight to Fort<br />
Worth AAF.<br />
On July 8, 1947, around noon, Colonel Blanchard at Roswell AAF ordered Second<br />
Lieutenant Walter Haut to issue a press release telling the country that the Army had found<br />
the remains of a crashed a flying saucer. Haut was the public information officer for the<br />
509th Bomb Group at Roswell AAF. Haut delivered the press release to Frank Joyce at radio<br />
station KGFL. Joyce waited long enough for Haut to return to the base, then called Haut<br />
there to confirm the story. Joyce then sent the story on the Western Union wire to the<br />
United Press bureau.<br />
On July 8, 1947, in the afternoon, General Clemence McMullen in Washington spoke by<br />
telephone with Colonel (later Brigadier General) Thomas DuBose in Fort Worth, chief of<br />
staff to Eighth Air Force Comm<strong>and</strong>er General Roger Ramey. McMullen ordered DuBose to<br />
tell Ramey to quash the flying saucer story by creating a cover story, <strong>and</strong> to send some of<br />
the crash material immediately to Washington.<br />
On July 8, 1947, in the afternoon, General Roger Ramey held a press conference at Eighth<br />
Air Force headquarters in Fort Worth in which he announced that what had crashed at<br />
Corona was a weather balloon, not a flying saucer. To make this story convincing, he<br />
showed the press the remains of a damaged weather balloon that he claimed was the actual<br />
wreckage from the crash site. (Apparently, the obliging press did not ask why the Army<br />
hurriedly transported weather balloon wreckage to Fort Worth, Texas, site of the press<br />
conference, from the crash site in a remote area of New Mexico.)<br />
<strong>The</strong> only newspapers that carried the initial flying saucer version of the story were evening<br />
papers from the Midwest to the West, including the Chicago Daily News, the Los Angeles<br />
Herald Express, the San Francisco Examiner, <strong>and</strong> the Roswell Daily Record. <strong>The</strong> New York<br />
Times, the Washington Post, <strong>and</strong> the Chicago Tribune were morning papers <strong>and</strong> so carried<br />
only the cover-up story the next morning.<br />
At some point, a large group of soldiers were sent to the debris field on the Foster Ranch,<br />
including a lot of MPs whose job was to limit access to the field. A wide search<br />
was launched well beyond the limits of the debris field. Within a day or two, a few miles from<br />
the debris field, the main body of the flying saucer was found, <strong>and</strong> a mile or two from that<br />
several bodies of small humanoids were found.<br />
<strong>The</strong> military took Mac Brazel into custody for about a week, during which time he was seen<br />
on the streets of Roswell with a military escort. His behavior aroused the curiosity of<br />
friends when he passed them without any sign of recognition. Following this period of<br />
detention, Brazel repudiated his initial story."<br />

<strong>The</strong> following is a verbatim copy of the signed Affidavit submitted on 8-7-1991 by<br />
Glenn Dennis, a mortician, in Roswell, N.M. at the time of the incident described in the<br />
letter from Mrs. MacElroy: (PLEASE NOTE: Mrs. MacElroy is NOT the same nurse that<br />
Mr. Dennis mentions in his Affidavit. Although no official identification has been made,<br />
several witnesses have identified "Nurse X" as 1st Lt. Adeline "Eileen" Fanton.)<br />
(1) My name is Glenn Dennis<br />
(2) My address is: XXXXXXXXXX<br />
"AFFIDAVIT OF GLENN DENNIS<br />
(3) I am ( ) employed as: __________________________________ ( ) retired,<br />
(4) In July 1947, I was a mortician, working for the Ballard Funeral Home in Roswell, which<br />
had a contract to provide mortuary services for the Roswell Army Air Field. One afternoon,<br />
around 1:15 or 1:30, I received a call from the base mortuary officer who asked what was the<br />
smallest size hermetically sealed casket that we had in stock. He said, "We need to know<br />
this in case something comes up in the future." He asked how long it would take to get one,<br />
<strong>and</strong> I assured him I could get one for him the following day. He said he would call back if<br />
they needed one.<br />
(5) About 45 minutes to an hour later, he called back <strong>and</strong> asked me to describe the<br />
preparation for bodies that had been lying out on the desert for a period of time. Before I<br />
could answer, he said he specifically wanted to know what effect the preparation procedures<br />
would have on the body's chemical compounds, blood <strong>and</strong> tissues. I explained that our<br />
chemicals were mainly strong solutions of formaldehyde <strong>and</strong> water, <strong>and</strong> that the procedure<br />
would probably alter the body's chemical composition. I offered to come out to the base to<br />
assist with any problem he might have, but he reiterated that the information was for future<br />
use. I suggested that if he had such a situation that I would try to freeze the body in dry ice<br />
for storage <strong>and</strong> transportation.<br />
(6) Approximately a hour or an hour <strong>and</strong> 15 minutes later, I got a call to transport a<br />
serviceman who had a laceration on his head <strong>and</strong> perhaps a fractured nose. I gave him first<br />
aid <strong>and</strong> drove him out to the base. I got there around 5:00 PM.<br />
(7) Although I was a civilian, I usually had free access on the base because they knew me.<br />
I drove the ambulance around to the back of the base infirmary <strong>and</strong> parked it next to another<br />
ambulance. <strong>The</strong> door was open <strong>and</strong> inside I saw some wreckage. <strong>The</strong>re were several<br />
pieces which looked like the bottom of a canoe, about three feet in length. It resembled<br />
stainless steel with a purple hue, as if it had been exposed to high temperature. <strong>The</strong>re was<br />
some strange-looking writing on the material resembling Egyptian hieroglyphics. Also there<br />
were two MPs present.<br />
(8) I checked the airman in <strong>and</strong> went to the staff lounge to have a Coke. I intended to look<br />
for a nurse, a 2nd Lieutenant, who had been commissioned about three months earlier right<br />
out of college. She was 23 years of age at the time (I was 22). I saw her coming out of one<br />
of the examining rooms with a cloth over her mouth. She said, "My gosh, get out of here or<br />
you're going to be in a lot of trouble." She went into another door where a Captain stood.<br />
171
He asked me who I was <strong>and</strong> what I was doing here. I told him, <strong>and</strong> he instructed me to stay<br />
there. I said, "It looks like you've got a crash; would you like me to get ready?" He told me<br />
to stay right there. <strong>The</strong>n two MPs came up <strong>and</strong> began to escort me out of the infirmary.<br />
<strong>The</strong>y said they had orders to follow me out to the funeral home.<br />
(9) We got about 10 or 15 feet when I heard a voice say, "We're not through with that SOB.<br />
Bring him back." <strong>The</strong>re was another Captain, a redhead with the meanest-looking eyes I<br />
had ever seen, who said, "You did not see anything, there was no crash here, <strong>and</strong> if you say<br />
anything you could get into a lot of trouble." I said, "Hey look mister, I'm a civilian <strong>and</strong> you<br />
can't do a damn thing to me." He said, "Yes we can; somebody will be picking your bones<br />
out of the s<strong>and</strong>." <strong>The</strong>re was a black Sergeant with a pad in his h<strong>and</strong> who said, "He would<br />
make good dog food for our dogs." <strong>The</strong> Captain said, "Get the SOB out." <strong>The</strong> MPs followed<br />
me back to the funeral home.<br />
(10) <strong>The</strong> next day, I tried to call the nurse to see what was going on. About 11:00 AM, she<br />
called the funeral home <strong>and</strong> said, "I need to talk to you." We agreed to meet at the officers<br />
club. She was very upset. She said, "Before I talk to you, you have to give me a sacred<br />
oath that you will never mention my name, because I could get into a lot of trouble." I<br />
agreed.<br />
(11) She said she had gone to get supplies in a room where two doctors were performing a<br />
prelimary autopsy. <strong>The</strong> doctors said they needed her to take notes during the procedure.<br />
She said she had never smelled anything so horrible in her life, <strong>and</strong> the sight was the most<br />
gruesome she had ever seen. She said, "This was something no one has ever seen." As<br />
she spoke, I was concerned that she might go into shock.<br />
(12) She drew me a diagram of the bodies, including an arm with a h<strong>and</strong> that had only four<br />
fingers; the doctors noted that on the end of the fingers were little pads resembling suction<br />
cups. She said the head was disproportionately large for the body; the eyes were deeply<br />
set; the skulls were flexible; the nose was concave with only two orifices; the mouth was a<br />
fine slit, <strong>and</strong> the doctors said there was heavy cartilage instead of teeth. <strong>The</strong> ears were only<br />
small orifices with flaps. <strong>The</strong>y had no hair, <strong>and</strong> the skin was black--perhaps due to exposure<br />
in the sun. She gave me the drawings.<br />
(13) <strong>The</strong>re were three bodies; two were very mangled <strong>and</strong> dismembered, as if destroyed by<br />
predators; one was fairly intact. <strong>The</strong>y were three-<strong>and</strong>-a-half to four feet tall. She told me the<br />
doctors said: "This isn't anything we've ever see before; there's nothing in the medical<br />
textbooks like this." She said she <strong>and</strong> the doctors became ill. <strong>The</strong>y had to turn off the air<br />
conditioning <strong>and</strong> were afraid the smell would go through the hospital. <strong>The</strong>y had to move the<br />
operation to an airplane hangar.<br />
(14) I drove her back to the officers' barracks. <strong>The</strong> next day I called the hospital to see how<br />
she was, <strong>and</strong> they said she wasn't available. I tried to get her for several days, <strong>and</strong> finally<br />
got one of the nurses who said the Lieutenant had been transferred out with some other<br />
personnel. About 10 days to two weeks later, I got a letter from her with an APO number.<br />
She indicated we could discuss the incident by letter in the future. I wrote back to her <strong>and</strong><br />
about two weeks later the letter came back marked "Return to Sender--DECEASED." Later,<br />
one of the nurses at the base said the rumor was that she <strong>and</strong> five other nurses had been on<br />
a training mission <strong>and</strong> had been killed in a plane crash.<br />
(15) Sheriff George Wilcox <strong>and</strong> my father were very close friends. <strong>The</strong> Sheriff went to my<br />
folks' house the morning after the events at the base <strong>and</strong> said to my father, "I don't know<br />
what kind of trouble Glenn's in, but you tell your son that he doesn't know anything <strong>and</strong><br />
172
hasn't seen anything at the base." He added, "<strong>The</strong>y want you <strong>and</strong> your wife's name, <strong>and</strong><br />
they want your <strong>and</strong> your children's addresses." My father immediately drove to the funeral<br />
home <strong>and</strong> asked me what kind of trouble I was in. He related the conversation with Sheriff<br />
Wilcox, <strong>and</strong> so I told him about the events of the previous day. He is the only person to<br />
whom I have told this story until recently.<br />
(16) I had filed away the sketches the nurse gave me that day. Recently, at the request of a<br />
researcher, I tried to locate my personal files at the funeral home, but they had all been<br />
destroyed.<br />
(17) I have not been paid or given anything of value to make this statement, which is the<br />
truth to the best of my recollection.<br />

20 "...telepathic thought..."<br />
"Telepathy, from the Greek τελε, tele meaning "remote" <strong>and</strong> πάθεια, patheia meaning "to be<br />
affected by", describes the purported transfer of information on thoughts or feelings between<br />
individuals by means other than the five classical senses. <strong>The</strong> term was coined in 1882 by<br />
the classical scholar Fredric W. H. Myers, a founder of the Society for Psychical Research,<br />
specifically to replace the earlier expression thought-transference. A person who is able to<br />
make use of telepathy is said to be able to read the minds of others. Telepathy, along with<br />
psychokinesis forms the main branches of parapsychological research, <strong>and</strong> many studies<br />
seeking to detect <strong>and</strong> underst<strong>and</strong> telepathy have been done within the field.<br />
Telepathy is a common theme in fiction <strong>and</strong> science fiction, with many superheroes <strong>and</strong><br />
supervillains having telepathic abilities. Such abilities include both sensing the thoughts of<br />
others, <strong>and</strong> controlling the minds of other people. Transhumanists believe that<br />
technologically enabled telepathy, called "techlepathy", will be the inevitable future of<br />
humanity, <strong>and</strong> seek to develop practical, safe devices for directly connecting human nervous<br />
systems."<br />

21 "...I was the only women at the site..."<br />
"Another story about the alien bodies <strong>and</strong> a vanishing nurse came from Pete <strong>and</strong> Ruben<br />
Anaya, who said they picked up N.M. Lt. Governor Joseph Montoya outside the large base<br />
hangar. Besides the hangar being heavily guarded by MPs, they said there was a base<br />
nurse (or maybe two different nurses) who came outside the hangar <strong>and</strong> spoke briefly with<br />
them. Ruben said she told him that the bodies were "not from this world" <strong>and</strong> then noticed<br />
one of them moving. Ruben said he then went to take a look <strong>and</strong> also glimpsed two small<br />
bodies from a distance under sheets inside the hangar <strong>and</strong> one of them moving. He<br />
described the nurse he spoke to as blondish <strong>and</strong> heavyset. [Note: Of the five nurses that are<br />
pictured in the base yearbook from around June/July 1947, none of them appear blondish or<br />
heavyset, though.<br />
173
In contrast, Pete Anaya said he knew the nurse he spoke to from the Officer's Club (his<br />
brother Ruben worked there as a cook), had danced with her once the previous Halloween<br />
at a party, said she resembled his wife Mary, <strong>and</strong> was a beautiful women with beautiful hair.<br />
He wanted to go inside the hangar to see what was going on, <strong>and</strong> she told him he didn't<br />
want to see anything. After that, he said he never saw her again. (Source: Tim Shawcross,<br />
<strong>The</strong> Roswell File, 1997)<br />
Former Roswell police chief L.M. Hall remembered Dennis telling him only a few days after<br />
the newspaper stories of the crashed flying saucer, about strange calls from the base for<br />
child-size caskets "to ship or bury those aliens."<br />
Another witness that recently came forth to corroborate parts of Dennis' story was S/Sgt.<br />
Milton Sprouse, then a B-29 crew chief with the 830th Bomb Squadron. Sprouse said he<br />
spoke to Dennis several years later while Dennis h<strong>and</strong>led a funeral for a friend. Dennis told<br />
him he had received a call from the base for five children's caskets for a crash that had<br />
happened 2 or 3 days before. Thus it seems that Dennis' story of the child casket call is not<br />
of recent origin but dates back to the original event itself.<br />
Sprouse said the bodies were taken to a hangar heavily guarded by MPs with machine<br />
guns. He also said he knew something about the autopsy initially described by Dennis. A<br />
fellow staff sergeant in his barracks, who worked as an emergency room medic at the base<br />
hospital, was called out there. When he came back he related that an autopsy on one or two<br />
of the "humanoid bodies" had been carried out by two doctors <strong>and</strong> two nurses. His friend<br />
said he had seen the bodies. Similar to Dennis' nurse, the sergeant was transferred the<br />
following day <strong>and</strong> nobody ever found out what became of him.<br />
Sprouse also heard that the doctors <strong>and</strong> nurses involved with the autopsy were also<br />
transferred <strong>and</strong> nobody found out what became of them either. Five members of his ground<br />
crew were also sent to the ranch to help clean up the debris field. <strong>The</strong>y told him the material<br />
was "out of this world," including foil that when crumpled returned to its original shape."<br />

22 "...prehensile..."<br />
"<strong>The</strong> word is derived from the Latin term prehendere, meaning "to grasp." It is the quality of<br />
an organ that has adapted for grasping or holding. Examples of prehensile body parts<br />
include the tails of New World monkeys <strong>and</strong> opossums, the trunks of elephants, the tongues<br />
of giraffes, the lips of horses <strong>and</strong> the proboscides of tapir. <strong>The</strong> h<strong>and</strong>s of primates are all<br />
prehensile to varying degrees, <strong>and</strong> many species (even a few humans) have prehensile feet<br />
as well. <strong>The</strong> claws of cats are also prehensile. Many extant lizards have prehensile tails<br />
(geckos, chameleons, <strong>and</strong> a species of skink). <strong>The</strong> fossil record shows prehensile tails in<br />
lizards (Simiosauria) going back many million years to the Triassic period .<br />
Prehensility is an evolutionary adaptation that has afforded species a great natural<br />
advantage in manipulating their environment for feeding, digging, <strong>and</strong> defense. It enables<br />
many animals, such as primates, to use tools in order to complete tasks that would<br />
otherwise be impossible without highly specialized anatomy. For example, chimpanzees<br />
have the ability to use sticks to fish for termites <strong>and</strong> grubs. However, not all prehensile<br />
organs are applied to tool use- the giraffe tongue, for instance, is instead used in feeding<br />
<strong>and</strong> self-cleaning behaviors."<br />

23 "... able to detect waves or particles beyond the visual spectrum of light."<br />
<strong>The</strong> visible spectrum (or sometimes called the optical spectrum) is the portion of the<br />
electromagnetic spectrum that is visible to (can be detected by) the human eye.<br />
Electromagnetic radiation in this range of wavelengths is called visible light or simply light.<br />
A typical human eye will respond to wavelengths in air from about 380 to 750 nm. <strong>The</strong><br />
corresponding wavelengths in water <strong>and</strong> other media are reduced by a factor equal to the<br />
refractive index. In terms of frequency, this corresponds to a b<strong>and</strong> in the vicinity of 400-790<br />
terahertz. A light-adapted eye generally has its maximum sensitivity at around 555 nm (540<br />
THz), in the green region of the optical spectrum. <strong>The</strong> spectrum does not, however, contain<br />
all the corlors that the human eyes <strong>and</strong> brain can distinguish. Brown, pink, <strong>and</strong> magenta are<br />
absent, for example, because they need a mix of multiple wavelengths, preferably shades of<br />
red.<br />
Wavelengths visible to the eye also pass through the "optical window", the region of the<br />
electromagnetic spectrum which passes largely unattenuated through the <strong>Earth</strong>'s<br />
atmosphere (although blue light is scattered more than red light, which is the reason the sky<br />
is blue). <strong>The</strong> response of the human eye is defined by subjective testing, but the<br />
atmospheric windows are defined by physical measurement. <strong>The</strong> "visible window" is so<br />
called because it overlaps the human visible response spectrum; the near infrared windows<br />
lie just out of human response window, <strong>and</strong> the Medium Wavelength <strong>and</strong> Long Wavelength<br />
or Far Infrared are far beyond the human response region.<br />
<strong>The</strong> eyes of many species perceive wavelengths different from the spectrum visible to the<br />
human eye. For example, many insects, such as bees, can see light in the ultraviolet, which<br />
is useful for finding nectar in flowers. For this reason, plant species whose life cycles are<br />
linked to insect pollination may owe their reproductive success to their appearance in<br />
ultraviolet light, rather than how colorful they appear to our eyes."<br />
-- Reference: Wikipedia.org<br />
24 "... this may have included the full range of the electromagnetic spectrum..."<br />
"<strong>The</strong> electromagnetic spectrum is the range of all possible electromagnetic radiation. <strong>The</strong><br />
"electromagnetic spectrum" (usually just spectrum) of an object is the characteristic<br />
distribution of electromagnetic radiation from that object.<br />
<strong>The</strong> electromagnetic spectrum extends from below the frequencies used for modern radio (at<br />
the long-wavelength end) through gamma radiation (at the short-wavelength end), covering<br />
wavelengths from thous<strong>and</strong>s of kilometres down to a fraction the size of an atom. It's thought<br />
that the short wavelength limit is the vicinity of the Planck length, <strong>and</strong> the long wavelength<br />
limit is the size of the universe itself, although in principle the spectrum is infinite <strong>and</strong><br />
continuous."<br />

"... her gaze seemed to penetrate right through me, as though she had "x-ray<br />
vision".<br />
"In fictional stories, X-ray vision has generally been portrayed as the ability to see through<br />
layers of objects at the discretion of the holder of this superpower. People often pretend to<br />
175
have this ability through the use of X-ray glasses, which are a special type of "joke-around"<br />
or prank-gag toys with the secret of its "x-ray properties" being unknown. <strong>The</strong> goal is usually<br />
to see through clothing, usually to determine if someone is carrying a concealed weapon, but<br />
sometimes for purpose of seeing a person's private parts. In the non-fictional realm, X-rays<br />
have many practical uses in the fields of science <strong>and</strong> medicine. While there are devices<br />
currently extant which can "see" through clothing (using terahertz waves), most are quite<br />
bulky. However, there are night vision equipped video cameras that can be modified to see<br />
through clothing at a frequency just below visible light."<br />

..."Technically, from a medical st<strong>and</strong>point, I would say that Airl's body could not<br />
even be called "alive". "<br />
"<strong>The</strong> word "organism" may broadly be defined as an assembly of molecules that function as<br />
a more or less stable whole <strong>and</strong> has the properties of life. However, many sources, lexical<br />
<strong>and</strong> scientific, add conditions that are problematic to defining the word.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Oxford English Dictionary defines an organism as "[an] individual animal, plant, or<br />
single-celled life form" . This definition problematically excludes non-animal <strong>and</strong> plant multicellular<br />
life forms such as some fungi <strong>and</strong> protista. Less controversially, perhaps, it excludes<br />
viruses <strong>and</strong> theoretically-possible man-made non-organic life forms.<br />
Chambers Online Reference provides a much broader definition: "any living structure, such<br />
as a plant, animal, fungus or bacterium, capable of growth <strong>and</strong> reproduction". <strong>The</strong> definition<br />
"any life form capable of independent reproduction, organic or otherwise" would encompass<br />
all cellular life, as well as the possibility of synthetic life capable of independent reproduction,<br />
but would exclude viruses, which are dependent on the biochemical machinery of a host cell<br />
for reproduction. Some may use a definition that would also include viruses."<br />

27 "...in space there is not gravity..."<br />
"<strong>The</strong> terms gravitation <strong>and</strong> gravity are mostly interchangeable in everyday use, but in<br />
scientific usage a distinction may be made. "Gravitation" is a general term describing the<br />
attractive influence that all objects with mass exert on each other, while "gravity" specifically<br />
refers to a force that is supposed in some theories (such as Newton's) to be the cause of this<br />
attraction. By contrast, in general relativity gravitation is due to space-time curvatures that<br />
cause inertially moving objects to accelerate towards each other.<br />
Isaac Newton's theory of universal gravitation is a physical law describing the<br />
gravitational attraction between bodies with mass. It is a part of classical mechanics <strong>and</strong> was<br />
first formulated in Newton's work Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica, published in<br />
1687. In modern language it states the following:<br />
Every point mass attracts every other point mass by a force pointing along the line<br />
intersecting both points. <strong>The</strong> force is proportional to the product of the two masses <strong>and</strong><br />
inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the point masses:<br />
176
where:<br />
• F is the magnitude of the gravitational force between the two point masses,<br />
• G is the gravitational constant,<br />
• m1 is the mass of the first point mass,<br />
• m2 is the mass of the second point mass,<br />
• r is the distance between the two point masses."<br />

28 "...stenographer..."<br />
"Shorth<strong>and</strong> is an abbreviated <strong>and</strong>/or symbolic writing method that increases speed or brevity<br />
of writing as compared to a normal method of writing a language. <strong>The</strong> process of writing in<br />
shorth<strong>and</strong> is called stenography, from the Greek stenos (narrow) <strong>and</strong> graphē (writing). It has<br />
also been called brachygraphy, from Greek brachys (short) <strong>and</strong> tachygraphy, from Greek<br />
tachys (swift, speedy), depending on whether compression or speed of writing is the goal.<br />
Many forms of shorth<strong>and</strong> exist. A typical shorth<strong>and</strong> system provides symbols or<br />
abbreviations for words <strong>and</strong> common phrases, which allow someone well trained in the<br />
system to write as quickly as people speak. Shorth<strong>and</strong> was used more widely in the past,<br />
before the invention of recording <strong>and</strong> dictation machines."<br />

"... INVESTIGATION OF "BURNING CLOUDS" / RADIATION / EXPLOSIONS..."<br />
"July 16, 1945..." -- <strong>The</strong> first test of a nuclear device was made in the desert north of<br />
Alamogordo, New Mexico. Roswell, New Mexico is only 117 miles from Alamogordo.<br />
NOTE: In 1932 that British explorers in Model-A Fords first visited this area of western<br />
Egypt, where they discovered a mysterious yellow-green glass scattered across the surface.<br />
Ever since, Libyan Desert Glass has fascinated scientists, who have dreamed up all sorts of<br />
ideas about how it could have formed. It’s too silica rich to be volcanic. In some ways it<br />
resembles the tektites generated by the high pressures associated with asteroid impacts.<br />
Vincenzo de Michele visited the Egyptian Museum in Cairo, <strong>and</strong> noticed that one of King<br />
Tutankhamun’s jeweled breastplates contained a carved scarab that looked suspiciously like<br />
a piece of the glass. A simple optical measurement confirmed the match in 1998. Nuclear<br />
explosions are hot enough to fuse surface materials into glass, much like the first<br />
atomic explosion generated yellow - green glass at the Trinity, New Mexico site in<br />
1945. Many similar sites around the world that are associated with unexplainable<br />
"cataclysmic" events reveal the same yellow - green glass. This "yellow-green glass" has<br />
been discovered in strata of rock which contain dinosaur fossils all over the world.<br />
June 30, 1947 -- "<strong>The</strong> Evaluation of the Atomic Bomb as a Military Weapon", made by the<br />
Atomic Energy Commission was received by President Truman. With a brilliant flourish of<br />
suicidal logic, that only the military, politicians other lunatics are capable of fathoming, the<br />
recommendation of the Commission, based on explosions of bombs in Alamogordo, New<br />
Mexico, on innocent civilians in two Japanese cities, <strong>and</strong> on the Marshall Isl<strong>and</strong>s, was as<br />
follows: (Seriously, you can't make this shit up, folks!)<br />
"PART III -- Conclusions <strong>and</strong> Recommendations<br />
177
Section One - CONCLUSIONS<br />
1. <strong>The</strong> Board has reached the following major conclusions:<br />
(1) If used in numbers, atomic bombs not only can nullify any nation's military effort,<br />
but can demolish its social <strong>and</strong> economic structures <strong>and</strong> prevent their reestablishment<br />
for long periods of time. With such weapons, especially if employed in conjunction with<br />
other weapons of mass destruction as, for example, pathogenic bacteria, it is quite<br />
possible to depopulate vast areas of the earth's surface, leaving only vestigial remnants<br />
of man's material works.<br />
(2) <strong>The</strong> threat of the uncontrolled use of the atomic bomb <strong>and</strong> of other weapons of<br />
mass destruction is a threat to mankind <strong>and</strong> to civilization. Only the outlawing of all war<br />
<strong>and</strong> the setting up on an adequate international control of weapons of mass destruction<br />
can lift this threat from the peoples of the world.<br />
(3) In the absence of absolute guarantees of abiding peace, the United States has<br />
not alternative but to continue the manufacture <strong>and</strong> stockpiling of weapons of nuclear<br />
fission <strong>and</strong> to carry on continuous research <strong>and</strong> development for their improvement in<br />
the means of their delivery."<br />

One thous<strong>and</strong> thous<strong>and</strong> = one million. ( 1,000,000 )<br />
One thous<strong>and</strong> million = one billion. ( 1,000,000,000 )<br />
One thous<strong>and</strong> billion = one trillion. ( 1,000,000,000,000 )<br />
"<strong>The</strong> English names for large numbers are coined from the Latin names for small numbers n<br />
by adding the ending -illion suggested by the name "million." Thus billion <strong>and</strong> trillion are<br />
coined from the Latin prefixes bi- (n = 2) <strong>and</strong> tri- (n = 3), respectively.<br />
In recent years, American usage has eroded the European number definitions, particularly in<br />
Britain <strong>and</strong> to a lesser extent in other countries. This is primarily due to American finance,<br />
because Americans insist that $1,000,000,000 be called a billion dollars. In 1974, the<br />
government of Prime Minister Harold Wilson announced that henceforth "billion" would mean<br />
10 9 <strong>and</strong> not 10 12 in official British reports <strong>and</strong> statistics. Anyone who uses the words "billion"<br />
<strong>and</strong> "trillion" internationally should make clear which meaning of those words is intended."<br />

31 "...her name was Gertrude something or other..."<br />
This was probably Gertrude R. Schmeidler, who was a notable experimental psychologist<br />
<strong>and</strong> parapsychologist at the time. She published journal articles <strong>and</strong> books about how<br />
various factors <strong>and</strong> traits affect a person's extrasensory perception (ESP) abilities.<br />
Studied the role of women in parapsychology, <strong>and</strong> formed groups <strong>and</strong> institutes interested in<br />
the study of ESP, such as the American Society for Psychical Research, the Duke University<br />
Parapsychology Laboratory, <strong>and</strong> the Parapsychology Foundation, Inc.<br />
178
Reflected in much of her research is the work for which Schmeidler is most notable, the<br />
development of the metaphor of the sheep <strong>and</strong> goats. She determined through several<br />
cycles of ESP card-guessing experiments that "sheep" (persons who believed that success<br />
was possible in ESP tasks) scored higher than "goats" (those who rejected the possibility of<br />
success).<br />

"Jiddu Krishnamurti (May 12, 1895 – February 17, 1986) was born into a Telugu Brahmin<br />
family in Madanapalle, India, <strong>and</strong> in 1909 met C.W. Leadbeater on the private beach at the<br />

Society at the time, who believed him to be a "vehicle" for an expected "World Teacher". As<br />
a young man, he disavowed this idea <strong>and</strong> dissolved a world-wide organization (the Order of<br />
the Star) established to support it. He spent the rest of his life traveling the world as an<br />
individual speaker, speaking to large <strong>and</strong> small groups, as well as with interested individuals.<br />
He was a well-known writer <strong>and</strong> speaker on fundamental philosophical <strong>and</strong> spiritual subjects.<br />
His subject matter included (but was not limited to): the purpose of meditation, human<br />
relationships, <strong>and</strong> how to enact positive change in global society. At the age of 34, he<br />
publicly renounced the fame <strong>and</strong> messiah status he had gained from being proclaimed the<br />
new incarnation of the Maitreya Buddha by the <strong>The</strong>osophical Society, <strong>and</strong> spent the rest of<br />
his life publishing regularly <strong>and</strong> holding public talks, mostly in South Asia, Europe <strong>and</strong> the<br />
United States. At age 90 he addressed the United Nations on the subject of peace <strong>and</strong><br />
awareness, <strong>and</strong> was awarded the 1984 UN Peace Medal."<br />

Western Hemisphere, which had not yet been explored by Europeans, it had obviously been<br />

38 "... the Japanese people have a great number of homonyms..."<br />
"In linguistics, a homonym is one of a group of words that share the same spelling <strong>and</strong> the<br />
same pronunciation but have different meanings. Some sources only require that homonyms<br />
share the same spelling or pronunciation (in addition to having different meanings).<br />
Examples of homonyms are stalk (which can mean either part of a plant or to follow<br />
someone around), bear (animal) <strong>and</strong> bear (carry), left (opposite of right) <strong>and</strong> left (past tense<br />
of leave). Some sources also consider the following trio of words to be homonyms, but<br />
others designate them as "only" homophones: to, too <strong>and</strong> two (actually, to, to, too, too <strong>and</strong><br />
two, being "for the purpose of" as in "to make it easier", the opposite of "from", also,<br />
excessively, <strong>and</strong> "2", respectively). <strong>The</strong> word "homonym" comes from the conjunction of the<br />
Greek prefix homo- (meaning same) <strong>and</strong> suffix -onym (meaning name). Thus, it refers to two<br />
or more distinct words sharing the "same name"."<br />

"A Chinese character or Han character (simplified Chinese: ; traditional Chinese: ;<br />
pinyin: Hànzì) is a logogram used in writing Chinese, Japanese, sometimes Korean, <strong>and</strong><br />
formerly Vietnamese. <strong>The</strong> number of Chinese characters contained in the Kangxi<br />
dictionary is approximately 47,035, although a large number of these are rarely used<br />
variants accumulated throughout history. Studies carried out in China have shown that full<br />
literacy requires a knowledge of between three <strong>and</strong> four thous<strong>and</strong> characters.<br />
In the Chinese writing system, each character corresponds to a single spoken syllable. A<br />
majority of words in all modern varieties of Chinese are poly-syllabic <strong>and</strong> thus require two or<br />
more characters to write. Cognates in the various Chinese languages/dialects which have<br />
the same or similar meaning but different pronunciations can be written with the same<br />
character. In addition, many Chinese characters were adopted according to their<br />
meaning by the Japanese <strong>and</strong> Korean languages to represent native words,<br />
disregarding pronunciation altogether."<br />

40 "...McGuffey's Eclectic Readers..."<br />
"McGuffey's Eclectic Readers were written by William Holmes McGuffey who began<br />
teaching school at the age of 14. He was a professor of ancient languages at Miami<br />
University from 1826 until his resignation in 1836. He then served as president of Cincinnati<br />
College (1836-1839) <strong>and</strong> Ohio University (1839-1843). Returning to Cincinnati, McGuffey<br />
taught at Woodward College from 1843 until 1845, when he became a professor of moral<br />
philosophy at the University of Virginia. He was ordained as a Presbyterian minister in 1829.<br />
It was during his years at Miami when McGuffey was approached to write a series of readers<br />
for school children. In addition to the work done on these by William Holmes McGuffey, he<br />
was assisted by his brother, Alex<strong>and</strong>er Hamilton McGuffey, who also compiled a speller <strong>and</strong><br />
had sole responsibility for the Fifth Reader. Alex<strong>and</strong>er taught school while working on his law<br />
degree <strong>and</strong> opened a law office in Cincinnati in 1839. <strong>The</strong> McGuffey Readers sold over<br />
125,000,000 copies.<br />
McGuffey became a "roving" teacher at the age of 14, beginning with 48 students in a one<br />
room school in Calcutta, Ohio. <strong>The</strong> size of the class was just one of several challenges faced<br />
181
y the young McGuffey. In many one-teacher schools, children's ages varied from six to<br />
twenty-one. McGuffey often worked 11 hours a day, 6 days a week in a succession of<br />
frontier schools. He had a remarkable ability to memorize, <strong>and</strong> could commit to mind entire<br />
books of the Bible.<br />
<strong>The</strong> first Reader taught reading by using the phonics method, the identification of letters <strong>and</strong><br />
their arrangement into words, <strong>and</strong> aided with slate work. <strong>The</strong> second Reader came into play<br />
once the student could read, <strong>and</strong> helped them to underst<strong>and</strong> the meaning of sentences while<br />
providing vivid stories which children could remember. <strong>The</strong> third Reader taught the<br />
definitions of words, <strong>and</strong> was written at a level equivalent to the modern 5th or 6th grade.<br />
<strong>The</strong> fourth Reader was written for the highest levels of ability on the grammar school level,<br />
which students completed with this book.<br />
McGuffey's Readers were among the first textbooks in America that were designed to<br />
become progressively more challenging with each volume. <strong>The</strong>y used word repetition in the<br />
text as a learning tool, which built strong reading skills through challenging reading.<br />
Sounding-out, enunciation <strong>and</strong> accents were emphasized. Colonial-era texts had offered dull<br />
lists of 20 to 100 new words per page for memorization. In contrast, McGuffey used new<br />
vocabulary words in the context of real literature, gradually introducing new words <strong>and</strong><br />
carefully repeating the old.<br />
McGuffey believed that teachers should study the lessons as well as their students <strong>and</strong><br />
suggested they read aloud to their classes. He also listed questions after each story for he<br />
believed in order for a teacher to give instruction, one must ask questions. <strong>The</strong> Readers<br />
emphasized spelling, vocabulary, <strong>and</strong> formal public speaking, which, in 19th century<br />
America, was a more common requirement than today.<br />
Henry Ford cited McGuffey's Readers as one of his most important childhood<br />
influences. He was an avid fan of McGuffey's Readers first editions, <strong>and</strong> claimed as an<br />
adult to be able to quote from McGuffey's by memory at great length. Ford republished all six<br />
Readers from the 1857 edition, <strong>and</strong> distributed complete sets of them, at his own expense,<br />
to schools across the United States.<br />
McGuffey's Readers contain many derogatory references to ethnic <strong>and</strong> religious minorities.<br />
For example, Native Americans are referred to as "savages". <strong>The</strong>re are those who regard<br />
the references in the book to the Jews <strong>and</strong> Judaism as anti-Semitic. For instance, in Neil<br />
Baldwin's Henry Ford <strong>and</strong> the Jews, the author makes the case that Henry Ford's selfavowed<br />
anti-Semitism originated with his study of McGuffey's as a schoolboy. Baldwin cites<br />
numerous anti-semitic references to Shylock <strong>and</strong> to Jews attacking Jesus <strong>and</strong> Paul. He also<br />
quotes the Fourth Reader to the effect that "Jewish authors were incapable of the diction<br />
<strong>and</strong> strangers to the morality contained in the gospel." <strong>The</strong> readers further characterize Jews<br />
as "Christ killers" <strong>and</strong> labels their reverence of the Old Testament as "superstitious," <strong>and</strong><br />
teach that Jews have been rejected by God for being "unfaithful"."<br />

42 "... brought in a set of the Encyclopedia Britannica..."<br />
"<strong>The</strong> Encyclopædia Britannica is a general English-language encyclopaedia published by<br />
Encyclopædia Britannica, Inc., a privately held company. <strong>The</strong> Britannica has a popular<br />
reputation for summarizing all of human knowledge. To further their education, many have<br />
devoted themselves to reading the entire Britannica, taking anywhere from three to 22 years<br />
to do so. When Fat'h Ali became the Shah of Persia in 1797, he was given a complete set of<br />
the Britannica's 3rd edition, which he read completely; after this feat, he extended his royal<br />
title to include "Most Formidable Lord <strong>and</strong> Master of the Encyclopædia Britannica." Writer<br />
George Bernard Shaw claimed to have read the complete 9th edition—except for the<br />
science articles—<strong>and</strong> Richard Evelyn Byrd took the Britannica as reading material for his<br />
five-month stay at the South Pole in 1934.<br />
<strong>The</strong> articles in the Britannica are aimed at educated adult readers, <strong>and</strong> written by a staff of<br />
19 full-time editors <strong>and</strong> over 4,000 expert contributors. It is widely perceived as the most<br />
scholarly of encyclopaedias. Since the 3rd edition, the Britannica has enjoyed a popular <strong>and</strong><br />
critical reputation for general excellence. On the release of the 14th edition, Time magazine<br />
dubbed the Britannica the "Patriarch of the Library". In a related advertisement, naturalist<br />
William Beebe was quoted as saying that the Britannica was "beyond comparison because<br />
there is no competitor." References to the Britannica can be found throughout English<br />
literature, most notably in one of Arthur Conan Doyle's favorite Sherlock Holmes stories,<br />

"Alice's Adventures in Wonderl<strong>and</strong> (1865) is a work of literary nonsense written by<br />
English author Charles Lutwidge Dodgson under the pseudonym Lewis Carroll, considered a<br />
classic example of the genre <strong>and</strong> of English literature in general. It tells the story of a girl<br />
named Alice who falls down a rabbit-hole into a fantastic realm populated by peculiar <strong>and</strong><br />
anthropomorphic creatures. <strong>The</strong> tale is filled with allusions to Dodgson's friends (<strong>and</strong><br />
enemies), <strong>and</strong> to the lessons that British schoolchildren were expected to memorize. <strong>The</strong><br />
tale plays with logic in ways that have made the story of lasting popularity with adults as well<br />
as children. It is considered to be one of the most characteristic examples of the genre of<br />
literary nonsense, <strong>and</strong> its narrative course <strong>and</strong> structure has been enormously influential,<br />

44 "...Don Quixote de la Mancha..."<br />
"An early novel written by Spanish author Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra. Cervantes created<br />
a fictional origin for the story based upon a manuscript by the invented Moorish historian,<br />
Cide Hamete Benengeli. <strong>The</strong> work was published in two volumes: the first in 1605, <strong>and</strong> the<br />
second in 1614.<br />
183
<strong>The</strong> protagonist, Alonso Quixano, is a country gentleman who has read so many stories of<br />
chivalry that he descends into fantasy <strong>and</strong> becomes convinced he is a knight errant.<br />
Together with his earthy squire Sancho Panza, the self-styled "Don Quixote de la Mancha"<br />
sets out in search of adventure. <strong>The</strong> "lady" for whom Quixote seeks to toil is Dulcinea del<br />
Toboso, an imaginary object crafted from a neighboring farm girl (her real name is Aldonza<br />
Lorenzo) by the illusion-struck "knight" to be the object of his courtly love. "Dulcinea" is<br />
totally unaware of Quixote's feelings for her, nor does she actually appear in the novel.<br />
Published in two volumes a decade apart, Don Quixote is the most influential work of<br />
literature to emerge from the Spanish Golden Age <strong>and</strong> perhaps the entire Spanish literary<br />
canon. As a founding work of modern Western literature, it regularly appears at or near the<br />
top of lists of the greatest works of fiction ever published <strong>and</strong> is the best-selling non-religious,<br />
non-political work of fiction of all time."<br />

45 "...One Thous<strong>and</strong> <strong>and</strong> One Nights..."<br />
"One Thous<strong>and</strong> <strong>and</strong> One Nights (Arabic: كتاب ألف ليلة وليلة - kitāb 'alf laylah wa-laylah;<br />
Persian: ﻩزار و ﯼﮎ شب - ezār-o yak šab) is a collection of stories collected over thous<strong>and</strong>s<br />
of years by various authors, translators <strong>and</strong> scholars in various countries. <strong>The</strong>se collections<br />
of tales trace their roots back to ancient Arabia <strong>and</strong> Yemen, ancient India, ancient Persia<br />
(especially the Sassanid Hazār Afsān Persian: ﻩزار افسان, lit. Thous<strong>and</strong> Tales), ancient<br />
Egypt, ancient Mesopotamian Mythology, ancient Syria, <strong>and</strong> medieval Arabic folk stories<br />
from the Caliphate era. Though an original manuscript has never been found several<br />
versions date the collection's genesis to somewhere between AD 800-900.<br />
<strong>The</strong> main frame story concerns a Persian king <strong>and</strong> his new bride. <strong>The</strong> king, Shahryar, upon<br />
discovering his former wife's infidelity has her executed <strong>and</strong> then declares all women to be<br />
unfaithful. He begins to marry a succession of virgins only to execute each one the next<br />
morning. Eventually the vizier cannot find any more virgins. Scheherazade, the vizier's<br />
daughter, offers herself as the next bride <strong>and</strong> her father reluctantly agrees. On the night of<br />
their marriage, Scheherazade tells the king a tale, but does not end it. <strong>The</strong> king is thus<br />
forced to keep her alive in order to hear the conclusion. <strong>The</strong> next night, as soon as she<br />
finishes the tale, she begins (<strong>and</strong> only begins) another. So it goes for 1,001 nights.<br />
<strong>The</strong> tales vary widely: they include historical tales, love stories, tragedies, comedies, poems,<br />
burlesques, various forms of erotica, <strong>and</strong> Muslim religious legends. Numerous stories depict<br />
djinn, magicians, <strong>and</strong> legendary places, which are often intermingled with real people <strong>and</strong><br />
geography; the historical caliph Harun al-Rashid is a common protagonist, as are his alleged<br />
court poet Abu Nuwas <strong>and</strong> his vizier, Ja'far al-Barmaki. Sometimes a character in<br />
Scheherazade's tale will begin telling other characters a story of his own, <strong>and</strong> that story may<br />
have another one told within it, resulting in a richly-layered narrative texture.<br />
<strong>The</strong> different versions have different individually detailed endings (in some Scheherazade<br />
asks for a pardon, in some the king sees their children <strong>and</strong> decides not to execute his wife,<br />
in some other things happen that make the king distracted) but they all end with the king<br />
giving his wife a pardon <strong>and</strong> sparing her life.<br />
<strong>The</strong> narrator's st<strong>and</strong>ards for what constitutes a cliffhanger seem broader than in modern<br />
literature. While in many cases a story is cut off with the hero in danger of losing his life or<br />
another kind of deep trouble, in some parts of the full text Scheherazade stops her narration<br />
184
in the middle of an exposition of abstract philosophical principles or complex points of<br />
Islamic philosophy, <strong>and</strong> in one case during a detailed description of human anatomy<br />
according to Galen—<strong>and</strong> in all these cases turns out to be justified in her belief that the<br />
king's curiosity about the sequel would buy her another day of life.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Indian folklore is represented by certain animal stories, which reflect influence from<br />
ancient Sanskrit fables. <strong>The</strong> Jataka is a collection of 547 stories, which are for the most part<br />
moral stories with an ethical purpose. <strong>The</strong> Tale of the Bull <strong>and</strong> the Ass <strong>and</strong> the linked Tale of<br />
the Merchant <strong>and</strong> his Wife are found in the frame stories of both the Jataka <strong>and</strong> the Arabian<br />
Nights."<br />

the World, in Four Parts. By Lemuel Gulliver, First a Surgeon, <strong>and</strong> then a Captain of several<br />
Ships, is a novel by Jonathan Swift that is both a satire on human nature <strong>and</strong> a parody of the<br />

English literature. <strong>The</strong> book became tremendously popular as soon as it was published<br />
(John Gay said in a 1726 letter to Swift that "it is universally read, from the cabinet council to<br />
the nursery"), <strong>and</strong> it is likely that it has never been out of print since then. <strong>The</strong> book<br />

48 "...Peter Pan..."<br />
Peter Pan is a character created by Scottish novelist <strong>and</strong> playwright J. M. Barrie (1860–<br />
1937). A mischievous boy who flies <strong>and</strong> magically refuses to grow up, Peter Pan spends his<br />
never-ending childhood adventuring on the small isl<strong>and</strong> of Neverl<strong>and</strong> as the leader of his<br />
gang the Lost Boys, interacting with fairies <strong>and</strong> pirates, <strong>and</strong> from time to time meeting<br />
ordinary children from the world outside.<br />
Barrie never described Peter's appearance in detail, leaving much of it to the imagination of<br />
the reader <strong>and</strong> the interpretation of anyone adapting the character. He describes him as a<br />
beautiful boy with a beautiful smile, "clad in skeleton leaves <strong>and</strong> the juices that flow from<br />
trees".<br />
185
Peter is mainly an exaggerated stereotype of a boastful <strong>and</strong> careless boy. He is quick to<br />
point out how great he is. Peter has a nonchalant, devil-may-care attitude, <strong>and</strong> is fearlessly<br />
cocky when it comes to putting himself in danger. Barrie writes that when Peter thought he<br />
was going to die on Marooner's Rock, he felt scared, yet he felt only one shudder run<br />
through him when any other person would've felt scared up until death. With his blissful<br />
unawareness of the tragedy of death, he says, "To die will be an awfully big adventure".<br />
Peter's archetypal ability is his refusal to grow up. Barrie did not explain how he was able to<br />
do this, leaving the implication that it was by an act of will.<br />
Peter is a skilled swordsman, with the skill to rival even Captain Hook, whose h<strong>and</strong> he cut off<br />
in a duel. He has remarkably keen vision <strong>and</strong> hearing. Peter Pan is said to be able to do<br />
almost anything. Peter has an effect on the whole of Neverl<strong>and</strong> <strong>and</strong> its inhabitants when he<br />
is there. Barrie states that the isl<strong>and</strong> wakes up when he returns from his trip to London.<br />
Peter is the leader of the Lost Boys, a b<strong>and</strong> of boys who were lost by their parents, <strong>and</strong><br />
came to live in Neverl<strong>and</strong>. He is friends with Tinker Bell, a common fairy who is often<br />
jealously protective of him."<br />

"A short story by Washington Irving contained in his collection <strong>The</strong> Sketch Book of Geoffrey<br />
Crayon, Gent., written while he was living in Birmingham, Engl<strong>and</strong>, <strong>and</strong> first published in<br />
1820. With Irving's companion piece "Rip Van Winkle", "<strong>The</strong> Legend of Sleepy Hollow" is<br />
among the earliest American fiction still read today.<br />
<strong>The</strong> story is set circa 1790 in the Dutch settlement of Tarry Town, New York, in a secluded<br />
glen called Sleepy Hollow. It tells the story of Ichabod Crane, a lanky schoolmaster from<br />
Connecticut, who competes with Abraham "Brom Bones" Van Brunt, the town rowdy, for the<br />
h<strong>and</strong> of 18-year-old Katrina Van Tassel, only daughter of a wealthy farmer. As Crane leaves<br />
a party at the Van Tassel home on an autumn night, he is pursued by the Headless<br />
Horseman, supposedly the ghost of a Hessian trooper who lost his head to a cannonball<br />
during "some nameless battle" of the American Revolutionary War <strong>and</strong> who "rides forth to<br />
the scene of battle in nightly quest of his head." Crane disappears from town, leaving Katrina<br />
to marry Brom Bones, who was "to look exceedingly knowing whenever the story of Ichabod<br />

language of South Asia, a liturgical language of Hinduism, Buddhism, Sikhism, Jainism, <strong>and</strong><br />
one of the 23 official languages of India.<br />
Its position in the cultures of South <strong>and</strong> Southeast Asia is akin to that of Latin <strong>and</strong> Greek in<br />
Europe <strong>and</strong> it has evolved into, as well as influenced, many modern-day languages of the<br />
world. It appears in pre-Classical form as Vedic Sanskrit, with the language of the Rigveda<br />
being the oldest <strong>and</strong> most archaic stage preserved. Dating back to as early as 1500 BCE,<br />
186
Vedic Sanskrit is the earliest attested Indo-Aryan language, <strong>and</strong> one of the earliest attested<br />
members of the Indo-European language family.<br />
<strong>The</strong> corpus of Sanskrit literature encompasses a rich tradition of poetry <strong>and</strong> drama as well<br />
as scientific, technical, philosophical <strong>and</strong> religious texts. Today, Sanskrit continues to be<br />
widely used as a ceremonial language in Hindu religious rituals in the forms of hymns <strong>and</strong><br />
mantras. Spoken Sanskrit is still in use in a few traditional institutions in India, <strong>and</strong> there are<br />

"Mehrgarh is now seen as a precursor to the Indus Valley Civilization. "Discoveries at<br />
Mehrgarh changed the entire concept of the Indus civilization," according to Ahmad Hasan<br />
Dani, professor emeritus of archaeology at Quaid-e-Azam University, Islamabad, "<strong>The</strong>re we<br />
have the whole sequence, right from the beginning of settled village life.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Kachi plain <strong>and</strong> in the Bolan basin (are) situated at the Bolan peak pass, one of the<br />
main routes connecting southern Afghanistan, eastern Iran, the Balochistan hills <strong>and</strong> the<br />
Indus valley. This area of rolling hills is thus located on the western edge of the Indus valley,<br />
where, around 2500 BC, a large urban civilization emerged at the same time as those of<br />
Mesorpotamia <strong>and</strong> the ancient Egyptian empire. For the first time in the Indian subcontinent,<br />
a continuous sequence of dwelling-sites has been established from 7000 BC to 500 BC. <strong>The</strong><br />
chalcolithic people of Mehrgarh also had contacts with contemporaneous cultures in<br />
northern Afghanistan, northeastern Iran <strong>and</strong> southern central Asia.<br />
in April 2006, it was announced in the scientific journal Nature that the oldest (<strong>and</strong> first early<br />
Neolithic) evidence for the drilling of human teeth in vivo (i.e. in a living person) was found in<br />
Mehrgarh. According to the authors, their discoveries point to a tradition of proto-dentistry in<br />
the early farming cultures of that region. "Here we describe eleven drilled molar crowns from<br />
187
nine adults discovered in a Neolithic graveyard in Pakistan that dates from 7,500 to 9,000<br />
years ago."<br />

52 "... they reported sighting "vimanas" or space craft in the area.."<br />
"A vimāna (Sanskrit: वमान) is a mythical flying machine, described in the Sanskrit epics.<br />
<strong>The</strong> predecessors of the flying vimanas of the Sanskrit epics are the flying chariots<br />
employed by various gods in the Vedas.<br />
<strong>The</strong> first flying vimana mentioned in Hindu mythology:<br />
"<strong>The</strong> Pushpaka chariot that resembles the Sun <strong>and</strong> belongs to my brother was<br />
brought by the powerful Ravana; that aerial <strong>and</strong> excellent car going everywhere at<br />
will .... that car resembling a bright cloud in the sky ... <strong>and</strong> the King [Rama] got in,<br />
<strong>and</strong> the excellent car at the comm<strong>and</strong> of the Raghira, rose up into the higher<br />
atmosphere.'<br />
<strong>The</strong> Rigveda does not mention Vimanas, but verses RV 1.164.47-48 have been taken as<br />
evidence for the idea of "mechanical birds":<br />
"Dark the descent: the birds are golden-coloured; up to the heaven they fly robed in<br />
the waters.<br />
Again descend they from the seat of Order, <strong>and</strong> all the earth is moistened with their<br />
fatness."<br />
"Twelve are the fellies, <strong>and</strong> the wheel is single; three are the naves. What man hath<br />
understood it?<br />
<strong>The</strong>rein are set together spokes three hundred <strong>and</strong> sixty, which in nowise can be<br />
loosened." (trans. Griffith)<br />
In Dayan<strong>and</strong>a Saraswati's "translation", these verses become:<br />
"jumping into space speedily with a craft using fire <strong>and</strong> water ... containing twelve<br />
stamghas (pillars), one wheel, three machines, 300 pivots, <strong>and</strong> 60 instruments."<br />
But likelier in the original Indian symbolism when that hymn was composed, the wheel is a<br />
year, the 12 "fellies" are months (lunations), <strong>and</strong> the 360 spokes are days.<br />
In the Ramayana, the pushpaka ("flowery") vimana of Ravana is described as follows:<br />
"<strong>The</strong> Pushpaka chariot that resembles the Sun <strong>and</strong> belongs to my brother was<br />
brought by the powerful Ravana; that aerial <strong>and</strong> excellent car going everywhere at<br />
will .... that car resembling a bright cloud in the sky ... <strong>and</strong> the King [Rama] got in,<br />
<strong>and</strong> the excellent car at the comm<strong>and</strong> of the Raghira, rose up into the higher<br />
atmosphere.'<br />
It is the first flying vimana mentioned in Hindu mythology (as distinct from the gods' flying<br />
horse-drawn chariots).<br />
188
Pushpaka was originally made by Maya for Kubera, the God of wealth, but was later stolen,<br />
along with Lanka, by his half-brother, the demon king Ravana.<br />
One example is that the Asura Maya had a Vimana measuring twelve cubits in<br />
circumference, with four strong wheels. Apart from 'blazing missiles', the poem records the<br />
use of other deadly weapons. 'Indra's Dart' (Indravajrā) operated via a circular 'reflector'.<br />
When switched on, it produced a 'shaft of light' which, when focused on any target,<br />
immediately 'consumed it with its power'.<br />
In one exchange, the hero, Krishna, is pursuing his enemy, Salva, in the sky, when Salva's<br />
Vimana, the Saubha, is made invisible in some way. Undeterred, Krishna immediately fires<br />
off a special weapon: "I quickly laid on an arrow, which killed by seeking out sound".<br />
Many other terrible weapons are described in the Mahabharata, but the most fearsome of all<br />
is the one used against the Vrishis. <strong>The</strong> narrative records:<br />
"Gurkha flying in his swift <strong>and</strong> powerful Vimana hurled against the three cities of the<br />
Vrishnis <strong>and</strong> Andhakas a single projectile charged with all the power of the Universe.<br />
An inc<strong>and</strong>escent column of smoke <strong>and</strong> fire, as brilliant as ten thous<strong>and</strong>s suns, rose<br />
in all its splendour. It was the unknown weapon, the Iron Thunderbolt, a gigantic<br />
messenger of death which reduced to ashes the entire race of the Vrishnis <strong>and</strong><br />
Andhakas."<br />

54 "... I was "outside" of my body, looking down from the ceiling..."<br />
"An out-of-body experience (OBE), is an experience that typically involves a sensation of<br />
floating outside of one's body <strong>and</strong>, in some cases, perceiving one's physical body from a<br />
place outside one's body (autoscopy). About one in ten people has reported having an outof-body<br />
experience at some time in their lives. It is claimed that those experiencing an OBE<br />
sometimes observe details which were unknown to them beforeh<strong>and</strong>.<br />
<strong>The</strong> first extensive scientific study of OBEs was made by Celia Green (1968). She collected<br />
written, first-h<strong>and</strong> accounts from a total of 400 subjects, recruited by means of appeals in the<br />
mainstream media, <strong>and</strong> followed up by questionnaire. some 80% reported feeling they were<br />
a ‘disembodied consciousness’, with no external body at all.<br />
Another form of a spontaneous OBE occurs during a near death experience (NDE). <strong>The</strong><br />
phenomenology of an NDE usually includes physiological, psychological <strong>and</strong> transcendental<br />
factors (Parnia, Waller, Yeates & Fenwick, 2001) such as impressions of being outside the<br />
physical body (an out-of-body experience), Typically the experience follows a distinct<br />
progression, starting with the sensation of floating above one's body <strong>and</strong> seeing the<br />
surrounding area."<br />

55 ..."the space craft was struck by a bolt of lighting"...<br />
"Lightning is an atmospheric discharge of electricity, which typically occurs during<br />
thunderstorms, <strong>and</strong> sometimes during volcanic eruptions or dust storms. <strong>The</strong> leader of a bolt<br />
of lightning can travel at speeds of 60,000 m/s, <strong>and</strong> can reach temperatures approaching<br />
30,000 °C (54,000 °F), hot enough to fuse soil or s<strong>and</strong> into glass channels. <strong>The</strong>re are over<br />
16 million lightning storms every year."<br />

56 ..."electronic wavelength"...<br />
"In physics, wavelength is the distance between repeating units of a propagating wave of a<br />
given frequency. It is commonly designated by the Greek letter lambda (λ). Examples of<br />
wave-like phenomena are light, water waves, <strong>and</strong> sound waves. In a wave, a property varies<br />
with the position. For example, this property can be the air pressure for a sound wave, or the<br />
magnitude of the electric or the magnetic field for light. <strong>The</strong> wavelengths of frequencies<br />
audible to the human ear (20 Hz–20 kHz) are between approximately 17 m <strong>and</strong> 17 mm,<br />
respectively. Visible light ranges from deep red, roughly 700 nm to violet, roughly 400 nm<br />
(430–750 THz). For other examples, see electromagnetic spectrum."<br />

57 ..."space opera" civilization"...<br />
"It was not until the 1920s that the space opera proper appeared in the pulp magazines<br />
Weird Tales <strong>and</strong> Amazing Stories. Unlike earlier stories of space adventure, which either<br />
related the invasion of <strong>Earth</strong> by extraterrestrials, or concentrated on the invention of a space<br />
vehicle by a genius inventor, pure space opera simply took space travel for granted (usually<br />
by setting the story in the far future), skipped the preliminaries, <strong>and</strong> launched straight into<br />
tales of derring-do among the stars.<br />
<strong>The</strong> first stories of this type were J. Schlossel's <strong>The</strong> Second Swarm (Spring 1928) in<br />
Amazing Stories Quarterly <strong>and</strong> Edmond Hamilton's Crashing Suns (August-September<br />
1928) <strong>and</strong> <strong>The</strong> Star Stealers (February 1929) in Weird Tales . Similar stories by other writers<br />
followed through 1929 <strong>and</strong> 1930; by 1931 the space opera was well-established as a<br />
dominant sub-genre of science fiction.<br />
<strong>The</strong> transition from the older space-voyage story to the space opera can be seen in the<br />
works of E. E. "Doc" Smith. His first published work, <strong>The</strong> Skylark of Space (August-October<br />
1928, Amazing Stories), merges the traditional tale of a scientist inventing a space-drive with<br />
planetary romance in the style of Edgar Rice Burroughs; but by the time of the sequel,<br />
Skylark Three (August-October 1930, Amazing Stories) which introduces the space faring<br />
race of the Fenachrone, Smith had moved closer to a space opera mode.<br />
Space opera in its most familiar form was a product of 1930s-40s pulp magazines. Like early<br />
science fiction in general, space opera borrowed much of its style from established<br />
adventure, crime, <strong>and</strong> thriller genres. Notable influences included stories that described<br />
adventures on exotic or uncivilized frontiers, e.g. the American West, Africa, or the Orient.<br />
190
<strong>The</strong> imagined future of space opera included immense space liners, intrepid explorers of<br />
unknown worlds, pirates of the space ways, <strong>and</strong> tough but incorruptible space police.<br />
E. E. "Doc" Smith's later Lensman Series <strong>and</strong> the works of Edmond Hamilton, John W.<br />
Campbell, <strong>and</strong> Jack Williamson in the 1930s <strong>and</strong> 1940s were popular with readers <strong>and</strong> much<br />
imitated by other writers. By the early 1940s, the repetitiousness <strong>and</strong> extravagance of some<br />
of these stories led to objections from some fans."<br />

58 "...1493 AD -- "<strong>The</strong> Requirement"...<br />
"<strong>The</strong> Requirement was published as a papal "bull", issued by the infamous Pope Alex<strong>and</strong>er<br />
VI, (Rodrigo Borgia), Roman Catholic Pope from 1492 until his death, is the most memorable<br />
of the Popes of the Renaissance.<br />
Because of the pre-existence of millions of people living in the Americas in 1493, the King of<br />
Spain, had a small twinge of fear at the prospect that God might become angry at him for all<br />
the murder, theft <strong>and</strong> mayhem he endorsed in the New World. So, he persuaded Pope<br />
Alex<strong>and</strong>er VI to sanction an official proclamation intended to dissolve the stain of bloody<br />
culpability from the King's own immortal soul. This document, called "<strong>The</strong> Requirement",<br />
was supposed to be read, whether translated into the native language of the inhabitants or<br />
not, to the citizens of every foreign nation just prior to their conquest. <strong>The</strong> gist of the<br />
proclamation was to inform the soon to be vanquished that their l<strong>and</strong>s were being "donated"<br />
to Spain.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Requirement read, in part:<br />
"I, (name of the Conquistador), servant of the high <strong>and</strong> mighty Kings of Castile <strong>and</strong><br />
Leon, conquerors of barbarian peoples, <strong>and</strong> being their messenger <strong>and</strong> Captain, hereby<br />
notify <strong>and</strong> inform you ... that God Our Lord, One <strong>and</strong> Eternal, created Heaven <strong>and</strong> <strong>Earth</strong> <strong>and</strong><br />
a man <strong>and</strong> a woman from whom you <strong>and</strong> I <strong>and</strong> all the multitude begotten from these over the<br />
past five thous<strong>and</strong> <strong>and</strong> some years since the world was made ... And so I request <strong>and</strong><br />
require you ... to recognize the Church as your Mistress <strong>and</strong> as Governess of the World <strong>and</strong><br />
Universe, <strong>and</strong> the High Priest, called the Pope, in Her name, <strong>and</strong> His Majesty (the King of<br />
Spain) in Her place, as Ruler <strong>and</strong> Lord King ... And if you do not do this ... with the help of<br />
God I shall come mightily against you, <strong>and</strong> I shall make war on you everywhere <strong>and</strong> in every<br />
way that I can, <strong>and</strong> I shall subject you to the yoke <strong>and</strong> obedience of the Church <strong>and</strong> His<br />
Majesty, <strong>and</strong> I shall seize your women <strong>and</strong> children, <strong>and</strong> I shall make them slaves, to sell<br />
<strong>and</strong> dispose of as His Majesty comm<strong>and</strong>s, <strong>and</strong> I shall do all the evil <strong>and</strong> damage to you that I<br />
am able. And I insist that the deaths <strong>and</strong> destruction that result from this will be your fault."<br />
One of the first to hear <strong>The</strong> Requirement were the chiefs of the Maya, whose scale of time<br />
for the creation of life on <strong>Earth</strong> did not begin a mere 5,000 years earlier, as suggested by the<br />
Pope, rather the Mayan measured original creation in millions of years by the astronomical<br />
calendars they kept, which tracked the solar year accurately to within a few seconds a year.<br />
<strong>The</strong>ir comment upon hearing <strong>The</strong> Requirement was, "<strong>The</strong> Holy Father has indeed been<br />
generous with others' property".<br />
<strong>The</strong> Requirement was originally intended as a response to complaints by Spanish clerics<br />
that the wars against the Native American peoples were unjust. Comparing them to Spain's<br />
wars against the Moors, the clerics claimed that Muslims had knowledge of Christ <strong>and</strong><br />
rejected Him, so that waging a Crusade against them was legitimate. In contrast, wars<br />
191
against the Native Americans, who had never come into contact with Christianity were<br />
unacceptable. <strong>The</strong> Requirement was intended as a legal loophole to place the native<br />
population in the position of having rejected Christianity. It stated: "We protest that any<br />
deaths that result from this [rejection of Christianity] are your fault…"<br />
Many critics of the conquistadors' policies were appalled by the flippant nature of the<br />
Requirement, <strong>and</strong> the priest, Bartolomeo de Las Casas, said in response to it that he did not<br />
know whether to laugh or to cry. While the conquistadors were encouraged to use an<br />
interpreter to read the Requirement, this was not absolutely necessary, <strong>and</strong> in many cases, it<br />
was read out to an uncomprehending populace. In some instances, it was read to barren<br />
beaches <strong>and</strong> empty villages, long after the natives had fled, to prisoners after they were<br />
captured, or even from the decks of ships once they had just spotted the coast.<br />
Nevertheless, for the conquistadors, it provided a religious justification for attacking <strong>and</strong><br />
enslaving the native population, <strong>and</strong> because of its potential to enrich the coffers of Spain,<br />
the Requirement was not generally questioned."<br />

<strong>The</strong> net result of the "discovery" of the "New World" which wasn't really "new" as it had been<br />
around as long as any other continent, <strong>and</strong> had a larger population than Europe, was as<br />
follows:<br />
1) hundreds of indigenous cultures were eradicated 2) approximately 100 million people<br />
were killed by disease <strong>and</strong> war brought upon them by "aliens" 3) 100 million people from the<br />
Gold Coast of Africa were enslaved, <strong>and</strong>/ or murdered by Europeans in an effort to replace<br />
the "labor force" of slaughtered indigenous population of the Western Hemisphere 4) nearly<br />
all of the priceless literature, history, cultural <strong>and</strong> artistic artifacts of the Western hemisphere<br />
were destroyed 5) most of the gold <strong>and</strong> gems mined over a period of thous<strong>and</strong>s of years by<br />
indigenous people were stolen <strong>and</strong> shipped off the a h<strong>and</strong>ful of greedy, idiotic, uneducated,<br />
filthy, disease-ridden, superstitious, murderous, thieves in Europe who squ<strong>and</strong>ered it on<br />
mindless self-indulgences. -- <strong>The</strong> Editor<br />
59 "... <strong>The</strong>y are interested primarily in the "low gravity" satellites in this space station<br />
which consists mainly of the dark side of the moon...".<br />
"According to the NASA Astronaut Neil Armstrong the aliens have a base on the Moon <strong>and</strong><br />
(the aliens) told us in no uncertain terms to get off <strong>and</strong> stay off the Moon!<br />
Sound far fetched? Milton Cooper, a Naval Intelligence Officer tells us that not only does the<br />
Alien Moon Base exist but the U.S. Naval Intelligence Community refers to the Alien Moon<br />
Base as "Luna," that there is a huge mining operation going on there, <strong>and</strong> that is where the<br />
aliens keep their huge mother ships while the trips to <strong>Earth</strong> are made in smaller "flying<br />
saucers".<br />
LUNA: <strong>The</strong> Alien base on the far side of the Moon. It was seen <strong>and</strong> filmed by the Apollo<br />
astronauts. A base, a mining operation using very large machines, <strong>and</strong> the very large alien<br />
craft described in sighting reports as mother ships exist there. -Milton Cooper<br />
Did Apollo 11 Encounter UFOs on the Moon? from the Book "Above Top Secret" by Timothy<br />
Good.<br />
192
According to hitherto unconfirmed reports, both Neil Armstrong <strong>and</strong> Edwin "Buzz" Aldrin saw<br />
UFOs shortly after their historic l<strong>and</strong>ing on the Moon in Apollo 11 on 21 July 1969. I<br />
remember hearing one of the astronauts refer to a "light" in or on a carter during the<br />
television transmission, followed by a request from mission control for further information.<br />
Nothing more was heard.<br />
According to a former NASA employee Otto Binder, unnamed radio hams with their own<br />
VHF receiving facilities that bypassed NASA's broadcasting outlets picked up the following<br />
exchange:<br />
NASA: What's there? Mission Control calling Apollo 11...<br />
Apollo: <strong>The</strong>se "Babies" are huge, Sir! Enormous! OH MY GOD! You wouldn't believe it! I'm<br />
telling you there are other spacecraft out there, lined up on the far side of the crater edge!<br />
<strong>The</strong>y're on the Moon watching us!<br />
In 1979, Maurice Chatelain, former chief of NASA Communications Systems confirmed that<br />
Armstrong had indeed reported seeing two UFOs on the rim of a crater. "<strong>The</strong> encounter was<br />
common knowledge in NASA," he revealed, "but nobody has talked about it until now."<br />
Soviet scientists were allegedly the first to confirm the incident. "According to our<br />
information, the encounter was reported immediately after the l<strong>and</strong>ing of the module," said<br />
Dr. Vladimir Azhazha, a physicist <strong>and</strong> Professor of Mathematics at Moscow University. "Neil<br />
Armstrong relayed the message to Mission Control that two large, mysterious objects were<br />
watching them after having l<strong>and</strong>ed near the moon module. But his message was never<br />
heard by the public-because NASA censored it. "<br />
According to another Soviet scientist, Dr. Aleks<strong>and</strong>r Kazantsev, Buzz Aldrin took color movie<br />
film of the UFOs from inside the module, <strong>and</strong> continued filming them after he <strong>and</strong> Armstrong<br />
went outside. Dr. Azhazha claims that the UFOs departed minutes after the astronauts came<br />
out on to the lunar surface.<br />
Maurice Chatelain also confirmed that Apollo 11's radio transmissions were interrupted on<br />
several occasions in order to hide the news from the public. Before dismissing Chatelain's<br />
sensational claims, it is worth noting his impressive background in the aerospace industry<br />
<strong>and</strong> space program. His first job after moving from France was as an electronics engineer<br />
with Convair, specializing in telecommunications, telemetry, <strong>and</strong> radar. In 1959 he was in<br />
charge of an electromagnetic research group, developing new radar <strong>and</strong><br />
telecommunications systems for Ryan. One of his eleven patents was an automatic flights to<br />
the Moon. Later, at North American Aviation, Chatelain was offered the job of designing <strong>and</strong><br />
building the Apollo communications <strong>and</strong> data-processing systems.<br />
Chatelain claims that "all Apollo <strong>and</strong> Gemini flights were followed, both at a distance <strong>and</strong><br />
sometimes also quite closely, by space vehicles of extraterrestrial origin-flying saucers, or<br />
UFOs, if you want to call them by that name. Every time it occurred, the astronauts informed<br />
Mission Control, who then ordered absolute silence." He goes on to say:<br />
"I think that Walter Schirra aboard Mercury 8 was the first of the astronauts to use the code<br />
name 'Santa Claus' to indicate the presence of flying saucers next to space capsules.<br />
However, his announcements were barely noticed by the general public.<br />
193
It was a little different when James Lovell on board the Apollo 8 comm<strong>and</strong> module came out<br />
from behind the moon <strong>and</strong> said for everybody to hear:<br />
'PLEASE BE INFORMED THAT <strong>THE</strong>RE IS A SANTA CLAUS.'<br />
Even though this happened on Christmas Day 1968, many people sensed a hidden meaning<br />
in those words."<br />
Rumors persist. NASA may well be a civilian agency, but many of its programs are funded<br />
by the defense budget <strong>and</strong> most of the astronauts are subject to military security regulations.<br />
Apart from the fact that the National Security Agency screens all films <strong>and</strong> probably radio<br />
communications as well. We have the statements by Otto Binder, Dr. Garry Henderson <strong>and</strong><br />
Maurice Chatelain that the astronauts were under strict orders not to discuss their sightings.<br />
And Gordon Cooper has testified to a United Nations committee that one of the astronauts<br />
actually witnessed a UFO on the ground. If there is no secrecy, why has this sighting not<br />
been made public?<br />
A certain professor, who wished to remain anonymous, was engaged in a discussion with<br />
Neil Armstrong during a NASA symposium.<br />
Professor: What REALLY happened out there with Apollo 11?<br />
Armstrong: It was incredible, of course we had always known there was a possibility, the fact<br />
is, we were warned off! (by the Aliens). <strong>The</strong>re was never any question then of a space<br />
station or a moon city.<br />
Professor: How do you mean "warned off"?<br />
Armstrong: I can't go into details, except to say that their ships were far superior to ours both<br />
in size <strong>and</strong> technology - Boy, were they big!... <strong>and</strong> menacing! No, there is no question of a<br />
space station.<br />
Professor: But NASA had other missions after Apollo 11?<br />
Armstrong: Naturally-NASA was committed at that time, <strong>and</strong> couldn't risk panic on <strong>Earth</strong>. But<br />
it really was a quick scoop <strong>and</strong> back again.<br />
Armstrong confirmed that the story was true but refused to go into further detail, beyond<br />
admitting that the CIA was behind the cover-up.<br />
Reasonable activity of an alien civilization showed up unexpectedly close to us. We were not<br />
ready for it psychologically<br />
We still can come across publications trying to find an answer to the question: Are we alone<br />
in the universe? At the same time, presence of reasonable creatures has been detected just<br />
close to our home, in the Moon. However, the discovery was immediately classified as<br />
secret, as it was so much incredible that even could shake the already existing social<br />
principles, reports Russia's newspaper "Vecherny Volgograd."<br />
Here is an extract from the official press-release:<br />
194
“NASA scientists <strong>and</strong> engineers participating in exploration of Mars <strong>and</strong> Moon reported<br />
results of their discoveries at a briefing at the Washington national press club on March 21,<br />
1996. It was announced for the first time that man-caused structures <strong>and</strong> objects had been<br />
discovered on the Moon.” <strong>The</strong> scientists spoke rather cautiously <strong>and</strong> evasively about the<br />
functioning objects, with the exception of UFO. <strong>The</strong>y always mentioned the man-caused<br />
objects as possible, <strong>and</strong> pointed out the information was still under study, <strong>and</strong> official results<br />
would be published later.<br />
It was mentioned at the briefing as well that the Soviet Union used to own some photo<br />
materials proving presence of reasonable activity on the Moon. And although it wasn't<br />
identified what kind of reasonable activity it was, thous<strong>and</strong>s of photo-<strong>and</strong> video materials<br />
photographed from the Apollo <strong>and</strong> the Clementine space station demonstrated many parts<br />
on the lunar surface where the activity <strong>and</strong> its traces were perfectly evident. <strong>The</strong> video films<br />
<strong>and</strong> photos made by U.S. astronauts during the Apollo program were demonstrated at the<br />
briefing. And people were extremely surprised why the materials hadn't been presented to<br />
the public earlier. And NASA specialists answered: “It was difficult to forecast the reaction of<br />
people to the information that some creatures had been or still were on the Moon. Besides,<br />
there were some other reasons to it, which were beyond NASA.”<br />
Specialist for lunar artifacts Richard Hoagl<strong>and</strong> says that NASA is still trying to veil photo<br />
materials before they are published in public catalogues <strong>and</strong> files, they do retouching or<br />
partially refocus them while copying. Some investigators, Hoagl<strong>and</strong> is among them, suppose<br />
that an extraterrestrial race had used the Moon as a terminal station during their activity on<br />
the <strong>Earth</strong>. <strong>The</strong> suggestions are confirmed by the legends <strong>and</strong> myths invented by different<br />
nations of our planet.<br />
Ruins of lunar cities stretched along many kilometers, huge transparent domes on massive<br />
basements, numerous tunnels <strong>and</strong> other constructions make scientists reconsider their<br />
opinions concerning the lunar problems. How the Moon appeared <strong>and</strong> principles of its<br />
revolving around the <strong>Earth</strong> still pose a great problem for scientists.<br />
Some partially destroyed objects on the lunar surface can’t be placed among natural<br />
geological formations, as they are of complex organization <strong>and</strong> geometrical structure. In the<br />
upper part of Rima hadley, not far from the place where the Apollo-15 had l<strong>and</strong>ed, a<br />
construction surrounded with a tall D-shaped wall was discovered. As of now, different<br />
artifacts have been discovered in 44 regions.<br />
<strong>The</strong> NASA Goddard Space Flight Center, the Houston Planetary Institute <strong>and</strong> specialists<br />
from the bank of space information are investigating the regions. Mysterious terrace-shaped<br />
excavations of the rock have been discovered near the Tiho crater. <strong>The</strong> concentric<br />
hexahedral excavations <strong>and</strong> the tunnel entry at the terrace side cant be results of natural<br />
geological processes; instead, they look very much like open cast mines.<br />
A transparent dome raised above the crater edge was discovered near the crater<br />
Copernicus. <strong>The</strong> dome is unusual as it is glowing white <strong>and</strong> blue from inside. A rather<br />
unusual object, which is unusual indeed even for the Moon, was discovered in the upper part<br />
of the Factory area. A disk of about 50 meters in diameter st<strong>and</strong>s on a square basement<br />
surrounded with rhombi walls. In the picture, close to the rhombi, we can also see a dark<br />
round embrasure in the ground, which resembles an entry in an underground caponier.<br />
<strong>The</strong>re is a regular rectangular area between Factory <strong>and</strong> the crater Copernicus which is 300<br />
meters wide 400 meters long.<br />
195
Apollo 10 astronauts made a unique picture (AS10-32-4822) of a one-mile long object called<br />
Castle, which is hanging at the height of 14 kilometers <strong>and</strong> casts a distinct shadow on the<br />
lunar surface. <strong>The</strong> object seems to be consisting of several cylindrical units <strong>and</strong> a large<br />
conjunctive unit. Internal porous structure of the Castle is clearly seen in one of the pictures,<br />
which makes an impression that some parts of the object are transparent.<br />
As it turned out at the briefing where many NASA scientists were present, when Richard<br />
Hoagl<strong>and</strong> had requested originals of the Castle pictures for the second time, no pictures<br />
were found there at all. <strong>The</strong>y disappeared even from the list of pictures made by the Apollo<br />
10 crew. Only intermediate pictures of the object were found in the archives, which<br />
unfortunately don't depict the internal structure of the object.<br />
When Apollo-12 crew l<strong>and</strong>ed on the lunar surface, they saw that the l<strong>and</strong>ing was observed<br />
by a half-transparent pyramidal object. It was hanging just several meters above the lunar<br />
surface <strong>and</strong> shimmered with all rainbow colors against the black sky.<br />
In 1969, when the film about astronauts traveling to the Sea of Storms was demonstrated<br />
(the astronauts saw the strange objects once again, which were later called “striped<br />
glasses”), NASA finally understood what consequences such kind of control could bring.<br />
Astronaut Mitchell answered the question about his feelings after a successful return the<br />
following: “My neck still aches as I had to constantly turn my head around because we felt<br />
we were not alone there. We had no choice but pray.” Johnston, who worked at the Houston<br />
Space Center <strong>and</strong> studied photos <strong>and</strong> video materials done during the Apollo program,<br />
discussed the artifacts with Richard Hoagl<strong>and</strong> <strong>and</strong> said, the NASA leadership was awfully<br />
annoyed with the great number of anomalous, to put it mildly, objects on the Moon. It was<br />
even said that piloted flights to the Moon could be banned in the programs network.<br />
Investigators are especially interested in ancient structures resembling partially destroyed<br />
cities. <strong>The</strong> orbital shooting reveals an astonishingly regular geometry of square <strong>and</strong><br />
rectangular constructions. <strong>The</strong>y resemble our terrestrial cities seen from the height of 5-8<br />
kilometers. A mission control specialist commented on the pictures: “Our guys observed<br />
ruins of the Lunar cities, transparent pyramids, domes <strong>and</strong> God knows what else, which are<br />
currently hidden deep inside the NASA safes, <strong>and</strong> felt like Robinson Crusoe when he<br />
suddenly came across prints of human bare feet on the s<strong>and</strong> of the desert isl<strong>and</strong>.” What do<br />
geologists <strong>and</strong> scientists say after studying the pictures of lunar cities <strong>and</strong> other anomalous<br />
objects? <strong>The</strong>y say, such objects can't be natural formations. “We should admit they are<br />
artificial, especially the domes <strong>and</strong> pyramids.” Reasonable activity of an alien civilization<br />
showed up unexpectedly close to us. We were not ready for it psychologically, <strong>and</strong> some<br />
people hardly believe they are true even now."<br />

60 "... synthesized from gypsum..."<br />
"Gypsum is a common mineral, with thick <strong>and</strong> extensive evaporite beds in association with<br />
sedimentary rocks. Deposits are known to occur in strata from as early as the Permian age.<br />
Gypsum is deposited in lake <strong>and</strong> sea water, as well as in hot springs, from volcanic vapors,<br />
<strong>and</strong> sulfate solutions in veins. Hydrothermal anhydrite in veins is commonly hydrated to<br />
196
gypsum by groundwater in near surface exposures. It is often associated with the minerals<br />
halite <strong>and</strong> sulfur.<br />
<strong>The</strong> word gypsum is derived from the aorist form of the Greek verb µαγειρεύω, "to cook",<br />
referring to the burnt or calcined mineral. Because the gypsum from the quarries of the<br />
Montmartre district of Paris has long furnished burnt gypsum used for various purposes, this<br />
material has been called plaster of Paris. It is also used in foot creams, shampoos <strong>and</strong> many<br />
other hair products.<br />
Because gypsum dissolves over time in water, gypsum is rarely found in the form of s<strong>and</strong>.<br />
However, the unique conditions of the White S<strong>and</strong>s National Monument in the US state of<br />
New Mexico have created a 710 km² (275 sq mile) expanse of white gypsum s<strong>and</strong>, enough<br />
to supply the construction industry with drywall for 1,000 years."<br />

61 "... electromagnetic force..."<br />
"In physics, the Lorentz force is the force on a point charge due to electromagnetic fields.<br />
Lorentz introduced this force in 1892. However, the discovery of the Lorentz force was<br />
before Lorentz's time. In particular, it can be seen at equation (77) in Maxwell's 1861 paper<br />
On Physical Lines of Force. Later, Maxwell listed it as equation "D" of his 1864 paper, A<br />
Dynamical <strong>The</strong>ory of the Electromagnetic Field, as one of the eight original Maxwell's<br />
equations. In this paper the equation was written as follows:<br />
where<br />
A is the magnetic vector potential,<br />
φ is the electrostatic potential,<br />
H is the magnetic field H,<br />
µ is magnetic permeability.<br />
Although this equation is obviously a direct precursor of the modern Lorentz force equation,<br />
it actually differs in two respects:<br />
• It does not contain a factor of q, the charge. Maxwell didn't use the concept of<br />
charge. <strong>The</strong> definition of E used here by Maxwell is unclear. He uses the term<br />
electromotive force. He operated from Faraday's electro-tonic state A, which he<br />
considered to be a momentum in his vortex sea. <strong>The</strong> closest term that we can trace<br />
to electric charge in Maxwell's papers is the density of free electricity, which appears<br />
to refer to the density of the aethereal medium of his molecular vortices <strong>and</strong> that<br />
gives rise to the momentum A. Maxwell believed that A was a fundamental quantity<br />
from which electromotive force can be derived.<br />
• <strong>The</strong> equation here contains the information that what we nowadays call E, which<br />
today can be expressed in terms of scalar <strong>and</strong> vector potentials according to<br />
197
<strong>The</strong> fact that E can be expressed this way is equivalent to one of the four modern<br />
Maxwell's equations, the Maxwell-Faraday equation.<br />
Despite its historical origins in the original set of eight Maxwell's equations, the Lorentz force<br />
is no longer considered to be one of "Maxwell's equations" as the term is currently used (that<br />
is, as reformulated by Heaviside). It now sits adjacent to Maxwell's equations as a separate<br />
<strong>and</strong> essential law.<br />
Significance of the Lorentz force<br />
While the modern Maxwell's equations describe how electrically charged particles <strong>and</strong><br />
objects give rise to electric <strong>and</strong> magnetic fields, the Lorentz force law completes that picture<br />
by describing the force acting on a moving point charge q in the presence of electromagnetic<br />
fields. <strong>The</strong> Lorentz force law describes the effect of E <strong>and</strong> B upon a point charge, but such<br />
electromagnetic forces are not the entire picture. Charged particles are possibly coupled to<br />
other forces, notably gravity <strong>and</strong> nuclear forces. Thus, Maxwell's equations do not st<strong>and</strong><br />
separate from other physical laws, but are coupled to them via the charge <strong>and</strong> current<br />
densities. <strong>The</strong> response of a point charge to the Lorentz law is one aspect; the generation of<br />
E <strong>and</strong> B by currents <strong>and</strong> charges is another.<br />
In real materials the Lorentz force is inadequate to describe the behavior of charged<br />
particles, both in principle <strong>and</strong> as a matter of computation. <strong>The</strong> charged particles in a<br />
material medium both respond to the E <strong>and</strong> B fields <strong>and</strong> generate these fields. Complex<br />
transport equations must be solved to determine the time <strong>and</strong> spatial response of charges,<br />
for example, the Boltzmann equation or the Fokker–Planck equation or the Navier-Stokes<br />
equations. For example, see magnetohydrodynamics, fluid dynamics, electrohydrodynamics,<br />
superconductivity, stellar evolution. An entire physical apparatus for dealing with these<br />
matters has developed. See for example, Green–Kubo relations <strong>and</strong> Green's function<br />
(many-body theory).<br />
Although one might suggest that these theories are only approximations intended to deal<br />
with large ensembles of "point particles", perhaps a deeper perspective is that the chargebearing<br />
particles may respond to forces like gravity, or nuclear forces, or boundary<br />
conditions."<br />

63 "...points of origin to establish age <strong>and</strong> duration."<br />
"So far scientists have not found a way to determine the exact age of the <strong>Earth</strong> directly from<br />
<strong>Earth</strong> rocks because <strong>Earth</strong>'s oldest rocks have been recycled <strong>and</strong> destroyed by the process<br />
of plate tectonics. If there are any of <strong>Earth</strong>'s primordial rocks left in their original state, they<br />
have not yet been found. Nevertheless, scientists have been able to determine the probable<br />
age of the Solar System <strong>and</strong> to calculate an age for the <strong>Earth</strong> by assuming that the <strong>Earth</strong><br />
<strong>and</strong> the rest of the solid bodies in the Solar System formed at the same time <strong>and</strong> are,<br />
therefore, of the same age.<br />
<strong>The</strong> ages of <strong>Earth</strong> <strong>and</strong> Moon rocks <strong>and</strong> of meteorites are measured by the decay of longlived<br />
radioactive isotopes of elements that occur naturally in rocks <strong>and</strong> minerals <strong>and</strong> that<br />
decay with half lives of 700 million to more than 100 billion years to stable isotopes of other<br />
elements. <strong>The</strong>se dating techniques, which are firmly grounded in physics <strong>and</strong> are known<br />
collectively as radiometric dating, are used to measure the last time that the rock being<br />
dated was either melted or disturbed sufficiently to rehomogenize its radioactive elements."<br />

"A creation myth is a supernatural mytho-religious story or explanation that describes the<br />
beginnings of humanity, earth, life, <strong>and</strong> the universe (cosmogony), usually as a deliberate<br />
act of "creation" by a supreme being. Many accounts of creation share broadly similar<br />
themes. Common motifs include the fractionation of the things of the world from a primordial<br />
chaos; the separation of the mother <strong>and</strong> father gods; l<strong>and</strong> emerging from an infinite <strong>and</strong><br />
timeless ocean; or creation ex nihilo (Latin: out of nothing)."<br />

"In physics, the law of conservation of energy states that the total amount of energy in any<br />
isolated system remains constant but cannot be recreated, although it may change forms,<br />
e.g. friction turns kinetic energy into thermal energy. In thermodynamics, the first law of<br />
thermodynamics is a statement of the conservation of energy for thermodynamic systems,<br />
<strong>and</strong> is the more encompassing version of the conservation of energy. In short, the law of<br />
conservation of energy states that energy can not be created or destroyed, it can only be<br />
changed from one form to another."<br />

"... Tales of magic, sorcery <strong>and</strong> enchantment, fairy tales <strong>and</strong> mythology speak of<br />
such things..."<br />
Magic, sometimes known as sorcery, is a conceptual system that asserts human ability to<br />
control the natural world (including events, objects, people, <strong>and</strong> physical phenomena)<br />
through mystical, paranormal or supernatural means. <strong>The</strong> term can also refer to the<br />
practices employed by a person asserting this influence, <strong>and</strong> to beliefs that explain various<br />
199
events <strong>and</strong> phenomena in such terms. In many cultures, magic is under pressure from, <strong>and</strong><br />
in competition with, scientific <strong>and</strong> religious conceptual systems.<br />
Adherents to magic believe that it may work by one or more of the following basic principles:<br />
• Natural forces that cannot be detected by science at present, <strong>and</strong> in fact may not<br />
be detectable at all. <strong>The</strong>se magical forces are said to exist in addition to <strong>and</strong><br />
alongside the four fundamental forces of nature: gravity, electromagnetism, the<br />
strong force <strong>and</strong> the weak force.<br />
• Intervention of spirits similar to these hypothetical natural forces, but with their<br />
own consciousness <strong>and</strong> intelligence. Believers in spirits will often describe a whole<br />
cosmos of beings of many different kinds, sometimes organized into a hierarchy.<br />
Aleister Crowley preferred the spelling magick, defining it as "the science <strong>and</strong> art of causing<br />
change to occur in conformity with the will." By this, he included "mundane" acts of will as<br />
well as ritual magic. In Magick in <strong>The</strong>ory <strong>and</strong> Practice, Chapter XIV, Crowley says:<br />
"What is a Magical Operation? It may be defined as any event in nature which is<br />
brought to pass by Will. We must not exclude potato-growing or banking from our<br />
definition. Let us take a very simple example of a Magical Act: that of a man blowing<br />
his nose." "<br />

67 "...they will capture other IS-BEs as slaves..."<br />
"<strong>The</strong> word slave in the English language originates from the Middle English sclave, from the<br />
Old French esclave, the Medieval Latin sclavus, the early Greek sklabos, from sklabenoi,<br />
Slavs, of Slavic origin; akin to Old Russian Slovene, an East Slavic tribe. <strong>The</strong> term sclavus<br />
originally referred to the Slavs of Eastern <strong>and</strong> Central Europe, as many of these people had<br />
been captured <strong>and</strong> then sold as slaves by Otto the Great <strong>and</strong> his successors. <strong>The</strong> former<br />
Latin word for "slave" was servus (cf. English serf).<br />
<strong>The</strong> evidence for slavery predates written records. It can be found in almost all cultures <strong>and</strong><br />
continents. Slavery can be traced to the earliest records, such as the Code of Hammurabi in<br />
Mesopotamia (~1800 BC), which refers to slavery as an already established institution. In<br />
important exception occurred under the reign of the Achaemenid Empire in Persia in 500<br />
BC. <strong>The</strong> forced labor of women in some ancient <strong>and</strong> modern cultures may also be identified<br />
as slavery. Slavery, in this case, includes sexual services.<br />
Historically, most slaves were captured in wars or kidnapped in isolated raids, but some<br />
persons were sold into slavery by their parents, or by themselves, as a means of surviving<br />
extreme conditions. Most slaves were born into that status, to parents who were enslaved.<br />
Ancient Warfare often resulted in slavery for prisoners <strong>and</strong> their families, who were either<br />
killed, ransomed or sold as slaves. Captives were often considered the property of those<br />
who captured them <strong>and</strong> were looked upon as a prize of war. Slavery may originally have<br />
been more humane than simply executing those who would return to fight if they were freed,<br />
but the effect led to widespread enslavement of particular groups of people. Those captured<br />
sometimes differed in ethnicity, nationality, religion, or race from their enslavers, but often<br />
were the same as the captors. <strong>The</strong> dominant group in an area might take captives <strong>and</strong> turn<br />
them into slaves with little fear of suffering the like fate. <strong>The</strong> possibility always existed of<br />
200
eversals of fortune, as when Seneca warned, at the height of the Roman Empire, when<br />
powerful nations fought among themselves, anyone might find himself enslaved."<br />

70 "... the body of the Archduke of Austria..."<br />
"Franz Ferdin<strong>and</strong> (December 18, 1863 – June 28, 1914) was an Archduke of Austria-Este,<br />
Prince Imperial of Austria <strong>and</strong> Prince Royal of Hungary <strong>and</strong> Bohemia, <strong>and</strong> from 1896 until<br />
his death, heir presumptive to the Austro-Hungarian throne. His assassination in Sarajevo<br />
precipitated the Austrian declaration of war. This caused countries allied with Austria-<br />
Hungary (the Central Powers) <strong>and</strong> countries allied with Serbia (the Entente Powers) to<br />
declare war on each other, starting World War I.<br />
In 1889, Franz Ferdin<strong>and</strong>'s life changed dramatically. His cousin Crown Prince Rudolf<br />
committed suicide at his hunting lodge in Mayerling, leaving Franz Ferdin<strong>and</strong>'s father,<br />
Archduke Karl Ludwig, as first in line to the throne. However his father renounced his<br />
succession rights a few days after the Crown Prince's death. Henceforth, Franz Ferdin<strong>and</strong><br />
was groomed to succeed.<br />
On June 28, 1914, at approximately 11:15 am, Franz Ferdin<strong>and</strong> <strong>and</strong> his wife were killed in<br />
Sarajevo, the capital of the Austro-Hungarian province of Bosnia <strong>and</strong> Herzegovina, by<br />
Gavrilo Princip, a member of Young Bosnia <strong>and</strong> one of several (a few) assassins organized<br />
by <strong>The</strong> Black H<strong>and</strong> (Црна рука/Tsrna Ruka). <strong>The</strong> event, known as the Assassination in<br />
Sarajevo, triggered World War I.<br />
Franz <strong>and</strong> Sophie had previously been attacked when a bomb was thrown at their car. It<br />
missed them, but many civilians were injured. Franz <strong>and</strong> Sophie both insisted on going to<br />
see all those injured at the hospital. As a result of this, Princip saw them <strong>and</strong> shot Sophie in<br />
the abdomen. Franz was shot in the jugular <strong>and</strong> was still alive when witnesses arrived to his<br />
aid, but it was too late; he died within minutes.<br />
<strong>The</strong> assassinations, along with the arms race, nationalism, imperialism, militarism, <strong>and</strong> the<br />
alliance system all contributed to the beginning of World War I, which began less than two<br />
months after Franz Ferdin<strong>and</strong>'s death, with Austria-Hungary's declaration of war against<br />
Serbia."<br />

71 ..."force field"...<br />
"Originally a term coined by Michael Faraday to provide an intuitive paradigm, but theoretical<br />
construct, for the behavior of electromagnetic fields, the term force field refers to the<br />
lines of force one object (the "source object") exerts on another object or a collection<br />
of other objects. An object might be a mass particle or an electric or magnetic<br />
charge, for example. <strong>The</strong> lines do not have to be straight, in the Euclidean geometry case,<br />
but may be curved. Faraday called these theoretical connections between objects lines of<br />
force because the objects are most directly connected to the source object along this line.<br />
202
Examples of force fields:<br />
• A local Newtonian gravitational field near <strong>Earth</strong> ground typically consists of a uniform<br />
array of vectors pointing in one direction---downwards, towards the ground; its force<br />
field is represented by the Cartesian vector , where points in a direction away from<br />
the ground, <strong>and</strong> m refers to the mass, <strong>and</strong> g refers to the acceleration due to gravity.<br />
• A global Gravitational field consists of a spherical array of vectors pointing towards<br />
the center of gravity. Its classical force field, in spherical coordinates, is represented<br />
by the vector, , which is just Newton's Law of Gravity, with the radial unit vector<br />
pointing towards the origin of the sphere (center of the <strong>Earth</strong>).<br />
• A conservative Electric field has an electric charge (or a smeared plum pudding of<br />
electric charges) as its source object. In the case of the point charges, the force field<br />
is represented by , where is the position vector that represents the straightest line<br />
between the source charge <strong>and</strong> the other charge.<br />
• A static Magnetic field has a magnetic charge (a magnetic monopole or a charge<br />
distribution).<br />
• <strong>The</strong> electromagnetic force is given by the Lorentz force formula, which in SI units is,<br />

72 "Electroshock..."<br />
"<strong>The</strong> story of electric shock began in 1938, when Italian psychiatrist Ugo Cerletti visited a<br />
Rome slaughterhouse to see what could be learned from the method that was employed to<br />
butcher hogs. In Cerletti's own words, "As soon as the hogs were clamped by the [electric]<br />
tongs, they fell unconscious, stiffened, then after a few seconds they were shaken by<br />
convulsions.... During this period of unconsciousness (epileptic coma), the butcher stabbed<br />
<strong>and</strong> bled the animals without difficulty....<br />
"At this point I felt we could venture to experiment on man, <strong>and</strong> I instructed my assistants to<br />
be on the alert for the selection of a suitable subject."<br />
Cerletti's first victim was provided by the local police - a man described by Cerletti as "lucid<br />
<strong>and</strong> well-oriented." After surviving the first blast without losing consciousness, the victim<br />
overheard Cerletti discussing a second application with a higher voltage. He begged Cerletti,<br />
"Non una seconda! Mortifierel" ("Not another one! It will kill me!")<br />
Ignoring the objections of his assistants, Cerletti increased the voltage <strong>and</strong> duration <strong>and</strong> fired<br />
again. With the "successful" electrically induced convulsion of his victim, Ugo Cerletti<br />
brought about the application of hog-slaughtering skills to humans, creating one of the most<br />
brutal techniques of psychiatry.<br />
*Electric shock is also called electro-convulsive "therapy" or treatment (ECT), electroshock<br />
therapy or electric shock treatment (EST), electrostimulation, <strong>and</strong> electrolytic therapy (ELT).<br />
All are euphemistic terms for the same process: sending a searing blast of electricity through<br />
the brain in order to alter behavior." (Reference: http://www.sntp.net/ect/ect3.htm)<br />
Today Electroshock therapy (ECT) is most often used as a treatment for severe major<br />
depression which has not responded to other treatment, <strong>and</strong> is also used in the treatment of<br />
mania, catatonia, schizophrenia <strong>and</strong> other disorders. It first gained widespread use as a form<br />
203
of treatment in the 1940s <strong>and</strong> 50s. Today, an estimated 1 million people worldwide receive<br />
ECT every year, usually in a course of 6-12 treatments administered 2 or 3 times a week.<br />
Electroconvulsive therapy has "side-effects" which include confusion <strong>and</strong> memory loss for<br />
events around the time period of treatment. ECT have been shown to cause persistent<br />
memory loss. It is the effects of ECT on long-term memory that give rise to much of the<br />
concern surrounding its use. <strong>The</strong> acute effects of ECT include amnesia.<br />
Registered nurse Barbara C. Cody reports in a letter to the Washington Post that her life<br />
"was forever changed by 13 outpatient ECTs I received in 1983. Shock 'therapy' totally <strong>and</strong><br />
permanently disabled me. "EEGs [electroencephalograms] verify the extensive damage<br />
shock did to my brain. Fifteen to 20 years of my life were simply erased; only small bits<br />
<strong>and</strong> pieces have returned. I was also left with short-term memory impairment <strong>and</strong> serious<br />
cognitive deficits. "Shock 'therapy' took my past, my college education, my musical<br />
abilities, even the knowledge that my children were, in fact, my children."<br />
Ernest Hemingway, American author, committed suicide shortly after Electric Shock<br />
treatment at the Menninger Clinic in 1961. He is reported to have said to his biographer,<br />
"Well, what is the sense of ruining my head <strong>and</strong> erasing my memory, which is my<br />
capital, <strong>and</strong> putting me out of business? It was a brilliant cure but we lost the<br />
patient...."<br />

73 "...electric voltage..."<br />
"<strong>The</strong> general public may consider household mains circuits (100–250 V AC), which carry the<br />
highest voltages they normally encounter, to be high voltage. For example, an installer of<br />
heating, ventilation <strong>and</strong> air conditioning equipment may be licensed to install 24 Volt control<br />
circuits, but may not be permitted to connect the 240 volt power circuits of the equipment.<br />
Voltages over approximately 50 volts can usually cause dangerous amounts of<br />
current to flow through a human being touching two points of a circuit.<br />
Voltages of greater than 50 V are capable of producing heart fibrillation if they produce<br />
electric currents in body tissues which happen to pass through the chest area. <strong>The</strong><br />
electrocution danger is mostly determined by the low conductivity of dry human skin. If skin<br />
is wet, or if there are wounds, or if the voltage is applied to electrodes which penetrate the<br />
skin, then even voltage sources below 40 V can be lethal if contacted."<br />

74 "...Post hypnotic suggestions..."<br />
"<strong>The</strong> ability of a human to be induced into a form of behavior or thinking pattern after coming<br />
out of the hypnotic state. Post hypnotic suggestions are administered by the hypnotist<br />
<strong>and</strong> may optionally include a time scope. An altered sense of perception or behavioral<br />
pattern may be "programmed" into the person under hypnosis. Certain sequences of<br />
events may be set as triggers to enter or exit the post-hypnotic pattern. <strong>The</strong> behavior<br />
patterns resemble conditioned reflexes, though administered without classical behavior<br />
alteration techniques.<br />
204
Examples:<br />
Any number, color, object, etc. may be induced to be ignored by the patient after full<br />
consciousness. A certain keyword starts the suggestion <strong>and</strong> a different word ends it. <strong>The</strong><br />
patient will not know nor use the item to be ignored. He/she may state that the sea is<br />
colored red, if suggested to ignore the color blue. A count of eleven may be achieved if<br />
asked to count ones fingers if a number -say 5- is suggested to be ignored. Thus the patient<br />
counts 1-2-3-4-6-7-8-9-10-11<br />
Different type of behavior patterns may be induced such as forcing the patient to recite a<br />
certain sentence whenever anyone says out loud the special keyword. <strong>The</strong> patient is<br />
fully aware of the conditioned action but it is very difficult, if not impossible, to restrain from<br />
doing it. Sweating, loss of coordination <strong>and</strong> full lack of concentration plagues the<br />
patient until he/she performs the programmed action.<br />
An object may be set to be perceived as invisible <strong>and</strong> it will be fully ignored <strong>and</strong> evaded<br />
during the period of suggestion. Experiments may be performed with a coffee mug, induced<br />
to be invisible. If the mug is put on top of a page with writing, the patient will only read the<br />
parts not covered by the mug. Even though the sentences may make no sense, nothing is<br />
seemingly wrong to the suspected. It is difficult to suggest an object be invisible, yet stay<br />
tactile. Usually the object is completely ignored by all senses. Thus, the mug in the<br />
example will reportedly not exist, even when the patient is touching it.<br />
Stage hypnotists will sometimes perform shows in which they hypnotize participants to think<br />
they are some celebrity <strong>and</strong> behave exactly like them. John Mohl, stage hypnotist <strong>and</strong><br />
member of <strong>The</strong> National Guild of Hypnotists, says that he has often hypnotized people to<br />
become someone else! Mohl noticed that adults often became a celebrity while Middle or<br />
High School students usually become something much more creative or imaginative."<br />

person who according to traditional Hindu belief does not have any "varnas". Varna refers to<br />
the Hindu belief that most humans were supposedly created from different parts of the body<br />
of the divinity Purusha. <strong>The</strong> part from which a varna was supposedly created defines a<br />
person's social status with regard to issues such as whom they may marry <strong>and</strong> which<br />
professions they may hold. Dalits fall outside the varnas system <strong>and</strong> have historically been<br />
prevented from doing any but the most menial jobs. (However, a distinction must be made<br />
between lower-caste people <strong>and</strong> Pariahs.) Included are leather-workers (called chamar),<br />
carcass h<strong>and</strong>lers (called mahar),poor farmers <strong>and</strong> l<strong>and</strong>less labourers, night soil scavengers<br />
(called bhangi or chura), street h<strong>and</strong>icrafters, folk artists, street cleaners, dhobi, etc.<br />
Traditionally, they were treated as pariahs in South Asian society <strong>and</strong> isolated in their own<br />
communities, to the point that even their shadows were avoided by the upper castes.<br />
Discrimination against Dalits still exists in rural areas in the private sphere, in ritual matters<br />
such as access to eating places <strong>and</strong> water sources. It has largely disappeared, however, in<br />
urban areas <strong>and</strong> in the public sphere, in rights of movement <strong>and</strong> access to schools. <strong>The</strong><br />
earliest rejection of discrimination, at least in spiritual matters, was made as far back as the<br />
205
Bhagavada Gita, which says that no person, no matter what, is barred from enlightenment<br />
<strong>The</strong>re are an estimated 160 million Dalits in India."<br />
Reference: Wikipedia.org<br />
"Human rights abuses against these people, known as Dalits, are legion. A r<strong>and</strong>om sampling<br />
of headlines in mainstream Indian newspapers tells their story: "Dalit boy beaten to death for<br />
plucking flowers"; "Dalit tortured by cops for three days"; "Dalit 'witch' paraded naked in<br />
Bihar"; "Dalit killed in lock-up at Kurnool"; "7 Dalits burnt alive in caste clash"; "5 Dalits<br />
lynched in Haryana"; "Dalit woman gang-raped, paraded naked"; "Police egged on mob to<br />
lynch Dalits".<br />
"Dalits are not allowed to drink from the same wells, attend the same temples, wear shoes in<br />
the presence of an upper caste, or drink from the same cups in tea stalls," said Smita<br />
Narula, a senior researcher with Human Rights Watch, <strong>and</strong> author of Broken People: Caste<br />
Violence Against India's "Untouchables." Human Rights Watch is a worldwide activist<br />
organization based in New York. India's Untouchables are relegated to the lowest jobs, <strong>and</strong><br />
live in constant fear of being publicly humiliated, paraded naked, beaten, <strong>and</strong> raped with<br />
impunity by upper-caste Hindus seeking to keep them in their place. Merely walking through<br />
an upper-caste neighborhood is a life-threatening offense. Nearly 90 percent of all the poor<br />
Indians <strong>and</strong> 95 percent of all the illiterate Indians are Dalits."<br />

76 "...political prisoners..."<br />
"A political prisoner is someone held in prison or otherwise detained, perhaps under house<br />
arrest, for his/her involvement in political activity.<br />
political prisoners are arrested <strong>and</strong> tried with a veneer of legality, where false criminal<br />
charges, manufactured evidence, <strong>and</strong> unfair trials are used to disguise the fact that an<br />
individual is a political prisoner. This is common in situations which may otherwise be<br />
decried nationally <strong>and</strong> internationally as a human rights violation <strong>and</strong> suppression of a<br />
political dissident. A political prisoner can also be someone that has been denied bail<br />
unfairly, denied parole when it would reasonably have been given to a prisoner charged with<br />
a comparable crime, or special powers may be invoked by the judiciary.<br />
Particularly in this latter situation, whether an individual is regarded as a political prisoner<br />
may depend upon subjective political perspective or interpretation of the evidence.<br />
Governments typically reject assertions that they hold political prisoners.<br />
Examples:<br />
In the Soviet Union, dubious psychiatric diagnoses were sometimes used to confine<br />
political prisoners. In Nazi Germany, "Night <strong>and</strong> Fog" prisoners were among the first victims<br />
of fascist repression. In North Korea, entire families are jailed if one family member is<br />
suspected of anti-government sentiments."<br />

79 "... mind control..."<br />
"Mind control (or "brainwashing") refers to a broad range of psychological tactics able to<br />
subvert an individual's control of his own thinking, behavior, emotions, or decisions. <strong>The</strong><br />
concept is closely related to hypnosis, but differs in practical approach.<br />
William Sargant connected Pavlov’s findings (the Russian researcher who experimented on<br />
stimulus-response mechanism with dogs) to the ways people learned <strong>and</strong> internalized belief<br />
systems. Conditioned behavior patterns could be changed by stimulated stresses beyond a<br />
dog’s capacity for response, in essence causing a breakdown. This could also be caused by<br />
intense signals, longer than normal waiting periods, rotating positive <strong>and</strong> negative signals<br />
<strong>and</strong> changing a dog’s physical condition, as through illness. Depending on the dog’s initial<br />
personality, this could possibly cause a new belief system to be held tenaciously. Sargant<br />
also connected Pavlov’s findings to the mechanisms of brain-washing....<br />
"Though men are not dogs, they should humbly try to remember how much they<br />
resemble dogs in their brain functions, <strong>and</strong> not boast themselves as demigods. <strong>The</strong>y<br />
are gifted with religious <strong>and</strong> social apprehensions, <strong>and</strong> they are gifted with the power<br />
of reason; but all these faculties are physiologically entailed to the brain. <strong>The</strong>refore<br />
the brain should not be abused by having forced upon it any religious or political<br />
mystique that stunts the reason, or any form of crude rationalism that stunts the<br />
religious sense." (p. 274)<br />
Psychologist Margaret Singer describes six conditions which would create an<br />
atmosphere in which thought reform is possible. Singer states that these conditions<br />
involve no need for physical coercion or violence.<br />
• Keep the victim unaware of what is going on <strong>and</strong> how he is being changed a step at<br />
a time.<br />
208
• Control the victim's social <strong>and</strong>/or physical environment; especially control the<br />
victim's time.<br />
• Systematically create a sense of powerlessness in the victim. This is accomplished<br />
by getting victims away from their normal social support group for a period of time<br />
<strong>and</strong> into an environment where the majority of people are already group members.<br />
o <strong>The</strong> victims serve as models of the attitudes <strong>and</strong> behaviors of the group <strong>and</strong><br />
speak an in-group language.<br />
o Strip victims of their main occupation (quit jobs, drop out of school) or<br />
source of income or have them turn over their income (or the majority of) to<br />
the group.<br />
o Once stripped of your usual support network, your confidence in your own<br />
perception erodes.<br />
o As your sense of powerlessness increases, your good judgment <strong>and</strong><br />
underst<strong>and</strong>ing of the world are diminished. (ordinary view of reality is<br />
destabilized)<br />
o As group attacks your previous worldview, it causes you distress <strong>and</strong> inner<br />
confusion; yet you are not allowed to speak about this confusion or object to<br />
it -- leadership suppresses questions <strong>and</strong> counters resistance.<br />
o This process is sped up if you are kept tired.<br />
• Manipulate a system of rewards, punishments <strong>and</strong> experiences in such a way as to<br />
inhibit behavior that reflects the victim's former social identity.<br />
o Manipulation of experiences can be accomplished through various methods<br />
of trance induction, including leaders using such techniques as paced<br />
speaking patterns, guided imagery, chanting, long prayer sessions or<br />
lectures, <strong>and</strong> lengthy meditation sessions.<br />
o Your old beliefs <strong>and</strong> patterns of behavior are defined as irrelevant or evil.<br />
Leadership wants these old patterns eliminated, so the victims must<br />
suppress them.<br />
o Victims get positive feedback for conforming to the group's beliefs <strong>and</strong><br />
behaviors <strong>and</strong> negative feedback for old beliefs <strong>and</strong> behavior.<br />
• Manipulate a system of rewards, punishments, <strong>and</strong> experiences in order to promote<br />
learning the group's ideology or belief system <strong>and</strong> group-approved behaviors.<br />
o Good behavior, demonstrating an underst<strong>and</strong>ing <strong>and</strong> acceptance of the<br />
group's beliefs, <strong>and</strong> compliance are rewarded while questioning, expressing<br />
doubts or criticizing are met with disapproval, redress <strong>and</strong> possible rejection.<br />
If one expresses a question, he or she is made to feel that there is<br />
something inherently wrong with them to be questioning.<br />
o <strong>The</strong> only feedback victims get is from the group, they become totally<br />
dependent upon the rewards given by those who control the environment.<br />
o Victims must learn varying amounts of new information about the beliefs of<br />
the group <strong>and</strong> the behaviors expected by the group.<br />
o <strong>The</strong> more complicated <strong>and</strong> filled with contradictions the new system is <strong>and</strong><br />
the more difficult it is to learn, the more effective the conversion process will<br />
be.<br />
o Esteem <strong>and</strong> affection from peers is very important to new recruits. Approval<br />
comes from having the new victim's behaviors <strong>and</strong> thought patterns conform<br />
to the models (victims). Victims' relationship with peers is threatened<br />
whenever they fail to learn or display new behaviors. Over time, the easy<br />
solution to the insecurity generated by the difficulties of learning the new<br />
system is to inhibit any display of doubts -- new recruits simply acquiesce,<br />
affirm <strong>and</strong> act as if they do underst<strong>and</strong> <strong>and</strong> accept the new ideology.<br />
209
• Put forth a closed system of logic <strong>and</strong> an authoritarian structure that permits no<br />
feedback <strong>and</strong> refuses to be modified except by leadership approval or executive<br />
order.<br />
o <strong>The</strong> group has a top-down, pyramid structure. <strong>The</strong> leaders must have verbal<br />
ways of never losing.<br />
o Victims are not allowed to question, criticize or complain -- if they do, the<br />
leaders allege that the victim is defective -- not the organization or the<br />
beliefs.<br />
o <strong>The</strong> individual is always wrong -- the system, its leaders <strong>and</strong> its belief are<br />
always right.<br />
o Remolding of the individual victim happens in a closed system. As victims<br />
learn to modify their behavior in order to be accepted in this closed system,<br />
they change -- begin to speak the language -- which serves to further isolate<br />
them from their prior beliefs <strong>and</strong> behaviors."<br />
Social psychology tactics<br />
A contemporary view of mind control sees it as an intensified <strong>and</strong> persistent use of well<br />
researched social psychology principles like compliance, conformity, persuasion,<br />
dissonance, reactance, framing or emotional manipulation.<br />
One of the most notable proponents of such theories is social psychologist Philip Zimbardo,<br />
former president of the American Psychological Association:<br />
"I conceive of mind control as a phenomena encompassing all the ways in<br />
which personal, social <strong>and</strong> institutional forces are exerted to induce<br />
compliance, conformity, belief, attitude, <strong>and</strong> value change in others.<br />
"Mind control is the process by which individual or collective freedom of<br />
choice <strong>and</strong> action is compromised by agents or agencies that modify or<br />
distort perception, motivation, affect, cognition <strong>and</strong>/or behavioral outcomes. It<br />
is neither magical nor mystical, but a process that involves a set of basic<br />
social psychological principles."<br />
In Influence, Science <strong>and</strong> Practice, social psychologist Robert Cialdini argues that mind<br />
control is possible through the covert exploitation of the unconscious rules that<br />
underlie <strong>and</strong> facilitate healthy human social interactions. He states that common social rules<br />
can be used to prey upon the unwary, <strong>and</strong> he titles them as follows:<br />
• "Reciprocation: <strong>The</strong> Old Give <strong>and</strong> Take...<strong>and</strong> Take"<br />
• "Commitment <strong>and</strong> Consistency: Hobgoblins of the Mind"<br />
• "Social Proof: Truths Are Us"<br />
• "Liking: <strong>The</strong> Friendly Thief"<br />
• "Authority: Directed Deference"<br />
• "Scarcity: <strong>The</strong> Rule of the Few"<br />
Using these six broad categories, he offers specific examples of both mild <strong>and</strong> extreme mind<br />
control (both one on one <strong>and</strong> in groups), notes the conditions under which each social rule is<br />
most easily exploited for false ends, <strong>and</strong> offers suggestions on how to resist such methods."<br />

80 "... remote thought control..."<br />
EDITOR'S NOTE: If "hypersonic sound" (see reference below) can already be used<br />
on <strong>Earth</strong>, which has been using electricity for only 150 years, imagine a technology<br />
that has been refined over millions of years, that could transmit thoughts that are<br />
precisely targeted to an individual person across millions of miles of space.<br />
"<strong>The</strong> lunatic is in my head," sang Pink Floyd on their l<strong>and</strong>mark "Dark Side of the Moon"<br />
album released 35 years ago. "<strong>The</strong>re's someone in my head but it's not me."<br />
In 2008, there is a chance that the voice inside your head may be trying to sell you<br />
something. Advertisers are using a new acoustic technology to project advertising slogans<br />
directly into your head. And not everyone is happy about the aural intrusion.<br />
In fact, the space between your ears may be the newest battleground in the conflict<br />
between privacy <strong>and</strong> technology. <strong>The</strong> technique is called hypersonic sound <strong>and</strong> it was<br />
created by inventor Woody Norris. Hypersonic sound (HSS) projection enables sound to<br />
be directed precisely to one individual without any spillover.<br />
In t<strong>and</strong>em with an ultrasonic emitter <strong>and</strong> a signal processor/amplifier, HSS projects a column<br />
of modulated ultrasonic frequencies into the air. <strong>The</strong> ultrasonic frequencies are inaudible by<br />
themselves, but the interaction of the frequencies with the air create sounds that can be<br />
heard by anyone inside the column. Hypersonic sound can direct sound as precisely as a<br />
laser beam can direct light.<br />
One only needs to be st<strong>and</strong>ing in the path of an HSS beam in order to hear the sound.<br />
However, the sensation to those hearing is that the sound is being projected from inside their<br />
skull.<br />
Pretty cool, thinks inventor Norris. Or pretty creepy if you don't know what's going on. It is<br />
already being done from a billboard on Prince Street in New York City.<br />
Advertising for a television show called "Paranormal State," which airs on the Arts <strong>and</strong><br />
Entertainment Network (A&E), has been sent through HSS to unsuspecting pedestrians who<br />
trigger a sensor as they stroll by. <strong>The</strong> sound that is emitted can be heard only by them.<br />
Science <strong>and</strong> technology writer Clive Thompson, has written about the Prince Street billboard<br />
for Wired magazine. He experienced HSS himself, writing that it felt "creepy" to hear a<br />
woman's voice whisper, "Who's there? Who's there?"<br />
It used to be that we could at least be guaranteed privacy in the space between our ears.<br />
That is no longer true, thanks to the invention of "in-head advertising."<br />
<strong>The</strong> freedom to think our own thoughts without artificial manipulation from outside<br />
sources may be our latest civil rights battle."<br />

81 "... the remote mind-control operation..."<br />
211
"One of the earliest examples of remote control was developed in 1893 by Nikola Tesla,<br />
<strong>and</strong> described in his patent, U.S. Patent 613,809 , named "Method of an Apparatus for<br />
Controlling Mechanism of Moving Vehicle or Vehicles".<br />
"In 1903, Leonardo Torres Quevedo presented the Telekino at the Paris Academy of<br />
Science, accompanied by a brief, <strong>and</strong> making an experimental demonstration. In the same<br />
year, he obtained a patent in France, Spain, Great Britain, <strong>and</strong> the United States. <strong>The</strong><br />
Telekino consisted of a robot that executed comm<strong>and</strong>s transmitted by electromagnetic<br />
waves. It constituted the world's first apparatus for radio control <strong>and</strong> was a pioneer in the<br />
field of remote control. In 1906, in the presence of the king <strong>and</strong> before a great crowd, Torres<br />
successfully demonstrated the invention in the port of Bilbao, guiding a boat from the shore.<br />
Later, he would try to apply the Telekino to projectiles <strong>and</strong> torpedoes, but had to ab<strong>and</strong>on<br />
the project for lack of financing.<br />
<strong>The</strong> first remote-controlled model airplane flew in 1932, <strong>and</strong> the use of remote control<br />
technology for military purposes was worked intensively during the Second World War,<br />
one result of this being the German Wasserfall missile."<br />
Remote control technology is also used in space travel, for instance the Russian<br />
Lunokhod vehicles were remote-controlled from the ground. Direct remote control of<br />
space vehicles at greater distances from the earth is not practical due to increasing signal<br />
delay times."<br />
Reference: Wikipedia.org<br />
82 "... mind control..."<br />
Editor's Note: <strong>The</strong> most famously publicized evidence of the use of mind-control<br />
operations is the CIA project, "MK-ULTRA":<br />
"Project MK-ULTRA, or MKULTRA, was the code name for a covert CIA mind-control <strong>and</strong><br />
chemical interrogation research program, run by the Office of Scientific Intelligence, that<br />
began in the early 1950s <strong>and</strong> continued at least through the late 1960s. <strong>The</strong>re is much<br />
published evidence that the project involved the surreptitious use of many types of drugs, as<br />
well as other methodology, to manipulate individual mental states <strong>and</strong> to alter brain function.<br />
Project MK-ULTRA was first brought to wide public attention in 1975 by the U.S. Congress,<br />
through investigations by the Church Committee, <strong>and</strong> by a presidential commission known<br />
as the Rockefeller Commission. Investigative efforts were hampered by the fact that CIA<br />
Director Richard Helms ordered all MK-ULTRA files destroyed in 1973.<br />
Although the CIA insists that MK-ULTRA-type experiments have been ab<strong>and</strong>oned, 14-year<br />
CIA veteran Victor Marchetti has stated in various interviews that the CIA routinely conducts<br />
disinformation campaigns <strong>and</strong> that CIA mind control research continued. In a 1977 interview,<br />
Marchetti specifically called the CIA claim that MK-ULTRA was ab<strong>and</strong>oned a 'cover story.'.<br />
On the Senate floor in 1977, Senator Ted Kennedy said:<br />
<strong>The</strong> Deputy Director of the CIA revealed that over thirty universities <strong>and</strong> institutions were<br />
involved in an 'extensive testing <strong>and</strong> experimentation' program which included covert drug<br />
212
tests on unwitting citizens 'at all social levels, high <strong>and</strong> low, native Americans <strong>and</strong> foreign.'<br />
Several of these tests involved the administration of LSD to 'unwitting subjects in social<br />
situations.' At least one death, that of Dr. [Frank] Olson, resulted from these activities. <strong>The</strong><br />
Agency itself acknowledged that these tests made little scientific sense. <strong>The</strong> agents doing<br />
the monitoring were not qualified scientific observers.<br />
A precursor of the MK-ULTRA program began in 1945 when the Joint Intelligence Objectives<br />
Agency was established <strong>and</strong> given direct responsibility for Operation Paperclip. Operation<br />
Paperclip was a program to recruit former Nazi spies, scientists <strong>and</strong> experts in torture<br />
<strong>and</strong> brain washing, some of whom had just been identified <strong>and</strong> prosecuted as war criminals<br />
during the Nuremberg Trials.<br />
Several secret U.S. government projects grew out of Operation Paperclip. <strong>The</strong>se projects<br />
included Project CHATTER (established 1947), <strong>and</strong> Project BLUEBIRD (established 1950),<br />
which was later renamed to Project ARTICHOKE in 1951. <strong>The</strong>ir purpose was to study mindcontrol,<br />
interrogation, behavior modification <strong>and</strong> related topics.<br />
Headed by Dr. Sidney Gottlieb, the MK-ULTRA project was started on the order of CIA<br />
director Allen Dulles on April 13, 1953, largely in response to Soviet, Chinese, <strong>and</strong> North<br />
Korean use of mind-control techniques on U.S. prisoners of war in Korea. <strong>The</strong> CIA wanted to<br />
use similar methods on their own captives. <strong>The</strong> CIA was also interested in being able to<br />
manipulate foreign leaders with such techniques, <strong>and</strong> would later invent several schemes to<br />
drug Fidel Castro.<br />
Experiments were often conducted without the subjects' knowledge or consent. In some<br />
cases, academic researchers being funded through grants from CIA front organizations were<br />
unaware that their work was being used for these purposes.<br />
In 1964, the project was renamed MK-SEARCH. <strong>The</strong> project attempted to produce a perfect<br />
truth drug for use in interrogating suspected Soviet spies during the Cold War, <strong>and</strong><br />
generally to explore any other possibilities of mind control.<br />
An MK-ULTRA program tagged "Operation Teapot" involved the testing of pregnant women<br />
with radiation, among other things. Also under this program, U.S. army soldiers were dosed<br />
with LSD to study the effects of panic.<br />
Another MK-ULTRA effort, Subproject 54, was the Navy's top secret "Perfect Concussion"<br />
program, which used sub aural frequency blasts to erase memory. During this program<br />
LSD's corollary effect on controlled <strong>and</strong> channeled mass panic was discovered.<br />
MK-ULTRA head Sidney Gottlieb was involved with both Operation Teapot <strong>and</strong> Subproject<br />
54. <strong>The</strong> U.S. government officially denied involvement until 1995 when an official apology<br />
was issued to the pregnant women <strong>and</strong> to the affected U.S. army soldiers. However no<br />
apologies were offered to the affected U.S. Navy soldiers or to a group of Oregon prison<br />
inmates, whose testicles were irradiated without their knowledge. Compensation for medical<br />
treatment resulting from these experiments has been disputed <strong>and</strong> remains tied up in<br />
arbitration more than 40 years after the fact. Since 1995, most of the associated files have<br />
been reclassified as Top Secret.<br />
213
Because most MK-ULTRA records were deliberately destroyed in 1973 by order of then CIA<br />
Director Richard Helms, it has been difficult, if not impossible, for investigators to gain a<br />
complete underst<strong>and</strong>ing of the more than 150 individually funded research sub-projects<br />
sponsored by MK Ultra <strong>and</strong> related CIA programs.<br />
Aims<br />
<strong>The</strong> Agency poured millions of dollars into studies probing dozens of methods of<br />
influencing <strong>and</strong> controlling the mind. One 1955 MK-ULTRA document gives an indication<br />
of the size <strong>and</strong> range of the effort; this document refers to the study of an assortment of<br />
mind-altering substances described as follows:<br />
1. Substances which will promote illogical thinking <strong>and</strong> impulsiveness to the point<br />
where the recipient would be discredited in public.<br />
2. Substances which increase the efficiency of mentation <strong>and</strong> perception.<br />
3. Materials which will prevent or counteract the intoxicating effect of alcohol.<br />
4. Materials which will promote the intoxicating effect of alcohol.<br />
5. Materials which will produce the signs <strong>and</strong> symptoms of recognized diseases in a<br />
reversible way so that they may be used for malingering, etc.<br />
6. Materials which will render the induction of hypnosis easier or otherwise<br />
enhance its usefulness.<br />
7. Substances which will enhance the ability of individuals to withst<strong>and</strong> privation,<br />
torture <strong>and</strong> coercion during interrogation <strong>and</strong> so-called "brain-washing".<br />
8. Materials <strong>and</strong> physical methods which will produce amnesia for events preceding<br />
<strong>and</strong> during their use.<br />
9. Physical methods of producing shock <strong>and</strong> confusion over extended periods of time<br />
<strong>and</strong> capable of surreptitious use.<br />
10. Substances which produce physical disablement such as paralysis of the legs, acute<br />
anemia, etc.<br />
11. Substances which will produce "pure" euphoria with no subsequent let-down.<br />
12. Substances which alter personality structure in such a way that the tendency of the<br />
recipient to become dependent upon another person is enhanced.<br />
13. A material which will cause mental confusion of such a type that the individual under<br />
its influence will find it difficult to maintain a fabrication under questioning.<br />
14. Substances which will lower the ambition <strong>and</strong> general working efficiency of men<br />
when administered in undetectable amounts.<br />
15. Substances which promote weakness or distortion of the eyesight or hearing<br />
faculties, preferably without permanent effects.<br />
16. A knockout pill which can surreptitiously be administered in drinks, food, cigarettes,<br />
as an aerosol, etc., which will be safe to use, provide a maximum of amnesia, <strong>and</strong><br />
be suitable for use by agent types on an ad hoc basis.<br />
17. A material which can be surreptitiously administered by the above routes <strong>and</strong> which<br />
in very small amounts will make it impossible for a man to perform any physical<br />
activity whatsoever.<br />
Historians have learned that creating a "Manchurian C<strong>and</strong>idate" subject through<br />
"mind control" techniques was undoubtedly a goal of MK-ULTRA <strong>and</strong> related CIA<br />
projects.<br />
214
Budget<br />
A secretive arrangement granted a percentage of the CIA budget. <strong>The</strong> MK-ULTRA<br />
director was granted six percent of the CIA operating budget in 1953, without oversight or<br />
accounting.<br />
Experiments<br />
CIA documents suggest that "chemical, biological <strong>and</strong> radiological" means were investigated<br />
for the purpose of mind control as part of MK-ULTRA.<br />
Drugs<br />
LSD<br />
Early efforts focused on LSD, which later came to dominate many of MK-ULTRA's programs.<br />
Experiments included administering LSD to CIA employees, military personnel, doctors,<br />
other government agents, prostitutes, mentally ill patients, <strong>and</strong> members of the general<br />
public in order to study their reactions. LSD <strong>and</strong> other drugs were usually administered<br />
without the subject's knowledge <strong>and</strong> informed consent, a violation of the Nuremberg Code<br />
that the U.S. agreed to follow after WWII.<br />
Efforts to "recruit" subjects were often illegal, even discounting the fact that drugs were being<br />
administered (though actual use of LSD, for example, was legal in the United States until<br />
October 6, 1966). In Operation Midnight Climax, the CIA set up several brothels to obtain a<br />
selection of men who would be too embarrassed to talk about the events. <strong>The</strong> men were<br />
dosed with LSD, <strong>and</strong> the brothels were equipped with one-way mirrors <strong>and</strong> the "sessions"<br />
were filmed for later viewing <strong>and</strong> study.<br />
Some subjects' participation was consensual, <strong>and</strong> in many of these cases, the subjects<br />
appeared to be singled out for even more extreme experiments. In one case, volunteers<br />
were given LSD for 77 consecutive days.<br />
LSD was eventually dismissed by MK-ULTRA's researchers as too unpredictable in its<br />
effects. Although useful information was sometimes obtained through questioning subjects<br />
on LSD, not uncommonly the most marked effect would be the subject's absolute <strong>and</strong> utter<br />
certainty that they were able to withst<strong>and</strong> any form of interrogation attempt, even physical<br />
torture.<br />
Other drugs<br />
Another technique investigated was connecting a barbiturate IV into one arm <strong>and</strong> an<br />
amphetamine IV into the other. <strong>The</strong> barbiturates were released into the subject first, <strong>and</strong> as<br />
soon as the subject began to fall asleep, the amphetamines were released. <strong>The</strong> subject<br />
would begin babbling incoherently at this point, <strong>and</strong> it was sometimes possible to ask<br />
questions <strong>and</strong> get useful answers.<br />
Other experiments involved heroin, morphine, temazepam (used under code name MK-<br />
SEARCH), mescaline, psilocybin, scopolamine, marijuana, alcohol, <strong>and</strong> sodium pentothal.<br />
215
Hypnosis<br />
Declassified MK-ULTRA documents indicate hypnosis was studied in the early 1950s.<br />
Experimental goals included: the creation of "hypnotically induced anxieties," "hypnotically<br />
increasing ability to learn <strong>and</strong> recall complex written matter," studying hypnosis <strong>and</strong><br />
polygraph examinations, "hypnotically increasing ability to observe <strong>and</strong> recall complex<br />
arrangements of physical objects," <strong>and</strong> studying "relationship of personality to susceptibility<br />
to hypnosis."<br />
Canadian experiments<br />
<strong>The</strong> experiments were exported to Canada when the CIA recruited Scottish psychiatrist<br />
Donald Ewen Cameron, creator of the "psychic driving" concept, which the CIA found<br />
particularly interesting. Cameron had been hoping to correct schizophrenia by erasing<br />
existing memories <strong>and</strong> completely rebuilding the psyche. He commuted from Albany, New<br />
York to Montreal every week to work at the Allan Memorial Institute of McGill University <strong>and</strong><br />
was paid $69,000 from 1957 to 1964 to carry out MKULTRA experiments there.<br />
In addition to LSD, Cameron also experimented with various paralytic drugs as well as<br />
electroconvulsive therapy at thirty to forty times the normal power. His "driving"<br />
experiments consisted of putting subjects into drug-induced coma for weeks at a time (up to<br />
three months in one case) while playing tape loops of noise or simple repetitive statements.<br />
His experiments were typically carried out on patients who had entered the institute for minor<br />
problems such as anxiety disorders <strong>and</strong> postpartum depression, many of whom suffered<br />
permanently from his actions. His treatments resulted in victims' incontinence, amnesia,<br />
forgetting how to talk, forgetting their parents, <strong>and</strong> thinking their interrogators were their<br />
parents. His work was inspired <strong>and</strong> paralleled by the British psychiatrist Dr William Sargant<br />
at St Thomas' Hospital, London, <strong>and</strong> Belmont Hospital, Surrey, who also experimented<br />
extensively <strong>and</strong> very damagingly on his patients without their consent <strong>and</strong> was equally<br />
involved with the Intelligence Services.<br />
It was during this era that Cameron became known worldwide as the first chairman of<br />
the World Psychiatric Association as well as president of the American <strong>and</strong> Canadian<br />
psychiatric associations. Cameron had also been a member of the Nuremberg medical<br />
tribunal only a decade earlier.<br />
Revelation<br />
In 1973, CIA Director Richard Helms ordered all MK-ULTRA files destroyed. Pursuant to<br />
this order, most CIA documents regarding the project were destroyed, making a full<br />
investigation of MK-ULTRA all but impossible.<br />
In December 1974, <strong>The</strong> New York Times reported that the CIA had conducted illegal<br />
domestic activities, including experiments on U.S. citizens, during the 1960s. That report<br />
prompted investigations by the U.S. Congress, in the form of the Church Committee, <strong>and</strong> by<br />
a presidential commission known as the Rockefeller Commission that looked into domestic<br />
activities of the CIA, the FBI, <strong>and</strong> intelligence-related agencies of the military.<br />
In the summer of 1975, congressional Church Committee reports <strong>and</strong> the presidential<br />
Rockefeller Commission report revealed to the public for the first time that the CIA<br />
<strong>and</strong> the Department of Defense had conducted experiments on both unwitting <strong>and</strong><br />
216
cognizant human subjects as part of an extensive program to influence <strong>and</strong> control<br />
human behavior through the use of psychoactive drugs such as LSD <strong>and</strong> mescaline<br />
<strong>and</strong> other chemical, biological, <strong>and</strong> psychological means. <strong>The</strong>y also revealed that at<br />
least one subject had died after administration of LSD.<br />
<strong>The</strong> congressional committee investigating the CIA research, chaired by Senator Frank<br />
Church, concluded that "[p]rior consent was obviously not obtained from any of the<br />
subjects". <strong>The</strong> committee noted that the "experiments sponsored by these researchers ...<br />
call into question the decision by the agencies not to fix guidelines for experiments."<br />
In Canada, the issue took much longer to surface, becoming widely known in 1984 on a<br />
CBC news show, <strong>The</strong> Fifth Estate. It was learned that not only had the CIA funded Dr.<br />
Cameron's efforts, but perhaps even more shockingly, the Canadian government was<br />
fully aware of this, <strong>and</strong> had later provided another $500,000 in funding to continue the<br />
experiments. This revelation largely derailed efforts by the victims to sue the CIA as their<br />
U.S. counterparts had, <strong>and</strong> the Canadian government eventually settled out of court for<br />
$100,000 to each of the 127 victims.<br />
U.S. General Accounting Office Report<br />
<strong>The</strong> U.S. General Accounting Office issued a report on September 28, 1994, which stated<br />
that between 1940 <strong>and</strong> 1974, DOD <strong>and</strong> other national security agencies studied thous<strong>and</strong>s<br />
of human subjects in tests <strong>and</strong> experiments involving hazardous substances.<br />
<strong>The</strong> quote from the study:<br />
... Working with the CIA, the Department of Defense gave hallucinogenic drugs to thous<strong>and</strong>s<br />
of "volunteer" soldiers in the 1950's <strong>and</strong> 1960's. In addition to LSD, the Army also tested<br />
quinuclidinyl benzilate, a hallucinogen code-named BZ. Many of these tests were conducted<br />
under the so-called MKULTRA program, established to counter perceived Soviet <strong>and</strong><br />
Chinese advances in brainwashing techniques. Between 1953 <strong>and</strong> 1964, the program<br />
consisted of 149 projects involving drug testing <strong>and</strong> other studies on unwitting human<br />
subjects...<br />
Extent of participation<br />
44 American colleges or universities, 15 research foundations or chemical or pharmaceutical<br />
companies <strong>and</strong> the like, 12 hospitals or clinics (in addition to those associated with<br />
universities), <strong>and</strong> 3 prisons are known to have participated in MKULTRA.<br />
Famous subjects<br />
Considerable evidence supports the contention that Unabomber <strong>The</strong>odore Kaczynski<br />
participated in CIA-sponsored MK-ULTRA experiments conducted at Harvard University by<br />
Henry A. Murray, a professor in Social Relations, from the fall of 1959 through the spring of<br />
1962. Kaczynski was a precocious, though impressionable, sixteen-year-old when he began<br />
his participation; his assigned code name was "Lawful." He emerged, years later, as a<br />
terrorist <strong>and</strong> has been sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole.<br />
"Merry Prankster" Ken Kesey, author of One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, volunteered for<br />
MK-ULTRA experiments while a student at Stanford University. Kesey's ingestion of LSD<br />
217
during these experiments led directly to his widespread promotion of the drug <strong>and</strong> the<br />
subsequent development of hippie culture."<br />

83 ..."Dark Ages"...<br />
"It is generally accepted that the concept (Dark Ages)was created by Petrarch in the 1330s.<br />
Writing of those who had come before him, he said, "Amidst the errors there shone forth<br />
men of genius, no less keen were their eyes, although they were surrounded by darkness<br />
<strong>and</strong> dense gloom." Christian writers had traditional metaphors of "light versus darkness" to<br />
describe "good versus evil". Petrarch was the first to co-opt the metaphor <strong>and</strong> give it secular<br />
meaning by reversing its application. Classical Antiquity, so long considered the "dark" age<br />
for its lack of Christianity, was now seen by Petrarch as the age of "light" because of its<br />
cultural achievements, while Petrarch's time, lacking such cultural achievements, was seen<br />
as the age of darkness.<br />
As an Italian, Petrarch saw the Roman Empire <strong>and</strong> the classical period as expressions of<br />
Italian greatness. He spent much of his time traveling through Europe rediscovering <strong>and</strong><br />
republishing the classic Latin <strong>and</strong> Greek texts. He wanted to restore the classical Latin<br />
language to its former purity. Humanists saw the preceding 900-year period as a time of<br />
stagnation. <strong>The</strong>y saw history unfolding, not along the religious outline of St. Augustine's Six<br />
Ages of the World, but in cultural (or secular) terms through the progressive developments of<br />
classical ideals, literature, <strong>and</strong> art.<br />
Petrarch wrote that history had had two periods: the classic period of the Greeks <strong>and</strong><br />
Romans, followed by a time of darkness, in which he saw himself as still living. Humanists<br />
believed one day the Roman Empire would rise again <strong>and</strong> restore classic cultural purity, <strong>and</strong><br />
so by the late 14th <strong>and</strong> early 15th century, humanists such as Leonardo Bruni believed they<br />
had attained this new age, <strong>and</strong> that a third, Modern Age had begun. <strong>The</strong> age before their<br />
own, which Petrarch had labeled dark, thus became a "middle" age between the classic <strong>and</strong><br />
the modern."<br />

84 "... the basic laws of physics..."<br />
"<strong>The</strong> early modern period is seen as a flowering of the Renaissance, in what is often known<br />
as the "Scientific Revolution", viewed as a foundation of modern science. Historians like<br />
Howard Margolis hold that the Scientific Revolution began in 1543, when Nicolaus<br />
Copernicus received the first copy of his De Revolutionibus, printed in Nuremberg<br />
(Nürnberg) by Johannes Petreius. Most of its contents had been written years prior, but the<br />
publication had been delayed. Copernicus died soon after receiving the copy.<br />
Further significant advances were made over the following century by Galileo Galilei,<br />
Christiaan Huygens, Johannes Kepler, <strong>and</strong> Blaise Pascal. During the early seventeenth<br />
century, Galileo made extensive use of experimentation to validate physical theories, which<br />
is the key idea in the modern scientific method. Galileo formulated <strong>and</strong> successfully tested<br />
several results in dynamics, in particular the Law of Inertia. In Galileo's Two New Sciences,<br />
a dialogue between the characters Simplicio <strong>and</strong> Salviati discuss the motion of a ship (as a<br />
moving frame) <strong>and</strong> how that ship's cargo is indifferent to its motion. Huygens used the<br />
motion of a boat along a Dutch canal to illustrate an early form of the conservation of<br />
momentum.<br />
218
<strong>The</strong> scientific revolution is considered to have culminated with the publication of the<br />
Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica in 1687 by the mathematician, physicist,<br />
alchemist <strong>and</strong> inventor Sir Isaac Newton (1643-1727). In 1687, Newton published the<br />
Principia, detailing two comprehensive <strong>and</strong> successful physical theories: Newton's laws of<br />
motion, from which arise classical mechanics; <strong>and</strong> Newton's Law of Gravitation, which<br />
describes the fundamental force of gravity. Both theories agreed well with experiment. <strong>The</strong><br />
Principia also included several theories in fluid dynamics.<br />
After Newton defined classical mechanics, the next great field of inquiry within physics was<br />
the nature of electricity."<br />
Reference: Wikipedia.org<br />
85 "...electricity..."<br />
"Electricity would remain little more than an intellectual curiosity for over two millennia until<br />
1600, when the English physician William Gilbert made a careful study of electricity <strong>and</strong><br />
magnetism, distinguishing the lodestone effect from static electricity produced by rubbing<br />
amber. He coined the New Latin word electricus ("of amber" or "like amber", from ηλεκτρον<br />
[elektron], the Greek word for "amber") to refer to the property of attracting small objects<br />
after being rubbed. This association gave rise to the English words "electric" <strong>and</strong> "electricity",<br />
which made their first appearance in print in Thomas Browne's Pseudodoxia Epidemica of<br />
1646.<br />
Further work was conducted by Otto von Guericke, Robert Boyle, Stephen Gray <strong>and</strong> C. F.<br />
du Fay. In the 18th century, Benjamin Franklin conducted extensive research in electricity,<br />
selling his possessions to fund his work. In June 1752 he is reputed to have attached a<br />
metal key to the bottom of a dampened kite string <strong>and</strong> flown the kite in a storm-threatened<br />
sky. He observed a succession of sparks jumping from the key to the back of his h<strong>and</strong>,<br />
showing that lightning was indeed electrical in nature.<br />
In 1791 Luigi Galvani published his discovery of bioelectricity, demonstrating that electricity<br />
was the medium by which nerve cells passed signals to the muscles. Aless<strong>and</strong>ro Volta's<br />
battery, or voltaic pile, of 1800, made from alternating layers of zinc <strong>and</strong> copper, provided<br />
scientists with a more reliable source of electrical energy than the electrostatic machines<br />
previously used. André-Marie Ampère discovered the relationship between electricity <strong>and</strong><br />
magnetism in 1820; Michael Faraday invented the electric motor in 1821, <strong>and</strong> Georg Ohm<br />
mathematically analyzed the electrical circuit in 1827.<br />
While it had been the early nineteenth century that had seen rapid progress in electrical<br />
science, the late nineteenth century would see the greatest progress in electrical<br />
engineering. Through such people as Nikola Tesla, Thomas Edison, George Westinghouse,<br />
Ernst Werner von Siemens, Alex<strong>and</strong>er Graham Bell <strong>and</strong> Lord Kelvin, electricity was turned<br />
from a scientific curiosity into an essential tool for modern life, becoming a driving force for<br />
the Second Industrial Revolution."<br />

86 "... Sir Isaac Newton..."<br />
"Sir Isaac Newton (4 January 1643 – 31 March 1727) was an English physicist,<br />
mathematician, astronomer, theologian, natural philosopher, <strong>and</strong> alchemist. His treatise<br />
219
Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica was published in 1687, <strong>and</strong> said to be the<br />
greatest single work in the history of science, described universal gravitation <strong>and</strong> the<br />
three laws of motion, laying the groundwork for classical mechanics, which dominated<br />
the scientific view of the physical universe for the next three centuries <strong>and</strong> is the basis<br />
for modern engineering. He showed that the motions of objects on <strong>Earth</strong> <strong>and</strong> of celestial<br />
bodies are governed by the same set of natural laws by demonstrating the consistency<br />
between Kepler's laws of planetary motion <strong>and</strong> his theory of gravitation, thus removing<br />
the last doubts about heliocentrism <strong>and</strong> advancing the scientific revolution.<br />
In mechanics, Newton enunciated the principles of conservation of momentum <strong>and</strong><br />
angular momentum. In optics, he invented the reflecting telescope <strong>and</strong> developed a<br />
theory of colour based on the observation that a prism decomposes white light into a<br />
visible spectrum. He also formulated an empirical law of cooling <strong>and</strong> studied the speed of<br />
sound.<br />
In mathematics, Newton shares the credit with Gottfried Leibniz for the development of the<br />
calculus. He also demonstrated the generalized binomial theorem, developed the socalled<br />
"Newton's method" for approximating the zeroes of a function, <strong>and</strong> contributed to<br />
the study of power series.<br />
In a 2005 poll of the Royal Society of who had the greatest effect on the history of<br />
science, Newton was deemed much more influential than Albert Einstein."<br />

87 "...between lifetimes."<br />
"Dr. Carl Sagan was a noted scientist, teacher <strong>and</strong> skeptic. Sagan was a founding member<br />
of a group that set out to debunk unscientific claims, <strong>and</strong> wrote the book <strong>The</strong> Demon-<br />
Haunted World in which he said that there were several areas in parapsychology which<br />
deserved serious study:<br />
"At the time of writing there are three claims in the ESP field which, in my opinion,<br />
deserve serious study: (1) that by thought alone humans can (barely) affect r<strong>and</strong>om<br />
number generators in computers; (2) that people under mild sensory deprivation can receive<br />
thoughts or images "projected" at them; <strong>and</strong> (3) that young children sometimes report the<br />
details of a previous life, which upon checking turn out to be accurate <strong>and</strong> which they<br />
could not have known about in any way other than reincarnation. I pick these claims<br />
not because I think they're likely to be valid (I don't), but as examples of contentions<br />
that might be true."<br />
"University of Virginia psychiatrists Dr. Jim Tucker <strong>and</strong> Professor Ian Stevenson have<br />
published books <strong>and</strong> peer-reviewed research papers about their work in examining cases of<br />
early childhood past life memories <strong>and</strong> birthmarks. <strong>The</strong> most detailed collections of personal<br />
reports in favor of reincarnation have been published by Professor Ian Stevenson, in books<br />
such as Twenty Cases Suggestive of Reincarnation.<br />
Stevenson has spent over 40 years devoted to the study of children who have spoken about<br />
past lives. In each case, Stevenson methodically documents the child's statements. <strong>The</strong>n,<br />
he identifies the deceased person the child allegedly identifies with, <strong>and</strong> verifies the facts of<br />
the deceased person's life that match the child's memory. Stevenson believes that his<br />
meticulous methods rule out all possible "normal" explanations for the child’s<br />
220
memories. However, it should be noted that a significant proportion of the University of<br />
Virginia's reported cases of reincarnation originate in Eastern societies, where dominant<br />
religions often permit the concept of reincarnation. In India — where this phenomenon is<br />
quite common — if a child from a poor family claims to be the reincarnated person from a<br />
rich family, this can lead to the child to be adopted by that family, a motive that has led to<br />
children making fraudulent reincarnation claims.<br />
Stevenson has said about the 2500 cases of children who appeared to remember past lives,<br />
which he <strong>and</strong> his associates investigated:<br />
"My conclusion so far is that reincarnation is not the only explanation for these cases, but<br />
that it is the best explanation we have for the stronger cases, by which I mean those in<br />
which a child makes a considerable number (say 20 or 30) of correct statements about<br />
another person who lives in a family that lives quite remote from his own <strong>and</strong> with which his<br />
family has had no prior contacts. When we talk about remoteness, we don't necessarily just<br />
mean physical distance. We know that two families can live only 10 kilometers apart <strong>and</strong> yet<br />
they can be very remote because they belong to different economic <strong>and</strong> social classes."<br />
Professor Stevenson has also matched birthmarks <strong>and</strong> birth defects to wounds <strong>and</strong><br />
scars on the deceased, verified by medical records such as autopsy photographs.<br />
Stevenson's research into birthmarks <strong>and</strong> congenital defects has particular importance for<br />
the demonstration of reincarnation, since it furnishes objective <strong>and</strong> graphic evidence of<br />
reincarnation, superior to the (often fragmentary) memories <strong>and</strong> reports of the children <strong>and</strong><br />
adults questioned, which even if verified afterwards probably cannot be assigned the same."<br />

88 "... lost civilizations of Atlantis..."<br />
<strong>The</strong> following website has most of the popular information about Atlantis:<br />
http://www.lost-civilizations.net/atlantis.html<br />
89 "... <strong>and</strong> Lemuria..."<br />
"<strong>The</strong> rise <strong>and</strong> fall of the Lemurian civilization cannot be accurately documented, though<br />
many have gone in quest of this mythological continent. Lost civilizations have been known<br />
to rise <strong>and</strong> fall - or just appear <strong>and</strong> disappear without explanation. As with Atlantis one can<br />
only speculate as to what happened, based on archaeological evidence, legends, theories<br />
pieced together by researchers, <strong>and</strong> for some, metaphysical channelings.<br />
<strong>The</strong> exact location of Lemuria varies with different researchers <strong>and</strong> authors, though it is part<br />
of the mysteries of the Pacific region flowing into the American continent, just as Atlantis is<br />
linked to the Atlantic l<strong>and</strong> areas that stretch to the Mediterranean Sea. Wherever you believe<br />
the location of Lemuria to be, it is linked with the Ring of Fire. This area has become active<br />
with a Tsunami in December 26, 2004, powerful earthquakes <strong>and</strong> volcanoes that continue,<br />
after being dormant for many years. It would seem that the legends of ancient Lemuria<br />
speak to us once again with warning signs - as they supposedly did to the Lemurians -<br />
before the continent - or group of isl<strong>and</strong>s - fell into the sea.<br />
221
<strong>The</strong> fate of Lemuria, also known as Pacifica, Mu, <strong>and</strong> what Cayce called Zu or Oz, is not<br />
unlike that proposed for Atlantis. It is much like the destiny of humanity foreseen in our<br />
timeline by prophets of old <strong>and</strong> modern-day clairvoyants. <strong>The</strong> legends are all the same ... a<br />
thriving, advanced culture that suddenly manifested out of nowhere. <strong>The</strong>ir origins <strong>and</strong><br />
downfall are linked to destruction when their continent sank beneath the 'sea' due to natural<br />
cataclysms <strong>and</strong> human imbalance."<br />

90 "...polar shift"...<br />
"In 1852, mathematician Joseph Adhemar suggested that the accumulation of thick ice at<br />
the poles periodically caused the earth to flip <strong>and</strong> the equator to move to where the poles<br />
were. An early mention of a shifting of the <strong>Earth</strong>'s axis can be found in an 1872 article<br />
entitled "Chronologie historique des Mexicains" which interpreted ancient Mexican myths as<br />
evidence for four periods of global cataclysms that had begun around 10,500 B.C.<br />
<strong>The</strong> novel Geyserl<strong>and</strong>: Empiricisms in Social Reform. Being Data <strong>and</strong> Observations<br />
Recorded by the Late Mark Stubble, M.D., Ph.D. (1908) by Richard Hatfield used the device<br />
of a fictional study to locate a blissful nation of pure Communism at the North Pole on the<br />
isl<strong>and</strong> of Atlantis. This fictional Utopia was destroyed by a pole shift set in 9262 B.C.<br />
Hugh Auchincloss Brown, an electrical engineer, advanced a theory of catastrophic pole shift<br />
influenced by Adhemar's earlier model. Brown also argued that accumulation of ice at the<br />
poles caused recurring tipping of the axis. identifying cycles of approximately 7 millennia.<br />
Charles Hapgood is now perhaps the best remembered early proponent, from in his books<br />
<strong>The</strong> <strong>Earth</strong>'s Shifting Crust (1958) (which includes a foreword by Albert Einstein) <strong>and</strong><br />
Path of the Pole (1970). Hapgood, building on Adhemar's much earlier model, speculated<br />
that the ice mass at one or both poles over-accumulates <strong>and</strong> destabilizes the earth's<br />
rotational balance, causing slippage of all or much of earth's outer crust around the earth's<br />
core, which retains its axial orientation. Based on his own research, he argued that each<br />
shift took approximately five thous<strong>and</strong> years, followed by 20 to 30 thous<strong>and</strong> year periods<br />
with no polar movements. Also, in his calculations, the area of movement never covered<br />
more than 40 degrees. His examples of recent locations for the North Pole include the<br />
Yukon Territory, Hudson Bay, <strong>and</strong> in the Atlantic Ocean between Icel<strong>and</strong> <strong>and</strong> Norway.<br />
This is an example of slow pole shift motion, which displays the most minor alterations <strong>and</strong><br />
no destruction. A more dramatic view assumes more rapid changes, with dramatic<br />
alterations of geography <strong>and</strong> localized areas of destruction due to earthquakes <strong>and</strong><br />
tsunamis. Several recent books propose changes that take place in weeks, days, or even<br />
hours, resulting in a variety of doomsday scenarios.<br />
Regardless of speed, the results of a shift occurring results in major climate changes for<br />
most of the earth's surface, as areas that were formerly equatorial become temperate, <strong>and</strong><br />
areas that were temperate become either more equatorial or more arctic.<br />
Hapgood wrote to Canadian librarian, R<strong>and</strong> Flem-Ath, encouraging him in his pursuit of<br />
scientific evidence to back Hapgood's claim <strong>and</strong> in his expansion of the theory. Flem-Ath<br />
published the results of this work in 1995 in When the Sky Fell co-written with his wife, Rose.<br />
222
Other theories which are not dependent upon polar ice masses include those involving:<br />
• a high-velocity asteroid or comet which hits <strong>Earth</strong> at such an angle that the<br />
lithosphere moves independent of the mantle<br />
• a high-velocity asteroid or comet which hits <strong>Earth</strong> at such an angle that the entire<br />
planet shifts axis.<br />
• an unusually magnetic celestial object which passes close enough to <strong>Earth</strong> to<br />
temporarily reorient the magnetic field, which then “drags” the lithosphere about a<br />
new axis of rotation. Eventually, the sun's magnetic field again determines the<br />
<strong>Earth</strong>'s, after the intruding celestial object “returns” to a location from which it cannot<br />
influence <strong>Earth</strong>.<br />
• perturbations of the topography of the core-mantle boundary, perhaps induced by<br />
differential core rotation <strong>and</strong> shift of its axial rotation vector, leading to CMB mass<br />
redistributions. See, e.g., Bowin.<br />
• mass redistributions in the mantle from mantle avalanches or other deformations.<br />
See, e.g., Ladbury, <strong>and</strong> Steinberger <strong>and</strong> O'Connell."<br />

91 "... Totalitarian..."<br />
"Totalitarianism is a concept used in political science that describes a state that regulates<br />
nearly every aspect of public <strong>and</strong> private behavior. Totalitarian regimes or movements<br />
maintain themselves in political power by means of secret police, propag<strong>and</strong>a disseminated<br />
through the state-controlled mass media, personality cults, regulation <strong>and</strong> restriction of free<br />
discussion <strong>and</strong> criticism, single-party states, the use of mass surveillance, <strong>and</strong> widespread<br />
use of terror tactics.<br />
Many consider the first totalitarian regimes to have begun in the 20th century, which include<br />
the communist regimes of the Soviet Union <strong>and</strong> Cuba, as well as totalitarianism of Nazi<br />
Germany, Fascist Italy, Spain under Franco, Portugal under Salazar, as well as others.<br />
However some argue that totalitarianism has existed centuries prior, such as in ancient<br />
China under the political leadership of Prime Minister Li Si who helped the Qin dynasty unify<br />
China. Li Si adopted the political philosophy of Legalism as the ruling philosophical thought<br />
of China <strong>and</strong> restricted political activities <strong>and</strong> destroyed all literature <strong>and</strong> killed scholars who<br />
did not support Legalism. Totalitarianism was also used by the Spartan state in Ancient<br />
Greece. Its “educational system” was part of the totalitarian military society. <strong>The</strong> oligarchy<br />
running the state machine dictated every aspect of life, including the rearing of children."<br />

"...planetary governments, regulated by a brutal social, economic, <strong>and</strong> political<br />
hierarchy..."<br />
"A hierarchy (in Greek: hieros, 'sacred', <strong>and</strong> arkho, 'rule') is a system of ranking <strong>and</strong><br />
organizing things or people, where each element of the system (except for the top element)<br />
is a subordinate to a single other element.<br />
A hierarchy can link entities either directly or indirectly, <strong>and</strong> either vertically or horizontally.<br />
<strong>The</strong> only direct links in a hierarchy, insofar as they are hierarchical, are to one's immediate<br />
superior or to one of one's subordinates, although a system that is largely hierarchical can<br />
also incorporate other organizational patterns. Indirect hierarchical links can extend<br />
223
"vertically" upwards or downwards via multiple links in the same direction. All parts of the<br />
hierarchy which are not vertically linked to one another can nevertheless be "horizontally"<br />
linked by traveling up the hierarchy to find a common direct or indirect superior, <strong>and</strong> then<br />
down again. This is akin to two co-workers, neither of whom is the other's boss, but both of<br />
whose chains of comm<strong>and</strong> will eventually meet."<br />
Many human organizations, such as governments, educational institutions, businesses,<br />
churches, armies <strong>and</strong> political movements are hierarchical organizations, at least officially;<br />
commonly seniors, called "bosses", have more power than their subordinates. Thus the<br />
relationship defining this hierarchy is "comm<strong>and</strong>s" or "has power over". Some analysts<br />
question whether power "actually" works in the way the traditional organizational chart<br />
indicates, however. This view tends to emphasize the significance of the informal<br />
organization."<br />

93 "...royal monarch as its figurehead."<br />
"In politics, a figurehead, by metaphor with the carved figurehead at the prow of a sailing<br />
ship, is a person who holds an important title or office yet executes little actual power.<br />
Common figureheads include constitutional monarchs, such as the Emperor of Japan, or<br />
presidents in parliamentary democracies, such as the President of Israel.<br />
While the authority of a figurehead is generally symbolic, respect <strong>and</strong> access to high levels<br />
of government can give them significant influence on some events. An example would be<br />
Emperor Hirohito's involvement in World War II. In parliamentary systems, presidents are<br />
figureheads at times of peace (delegated such powers as convening or dismissing the<br />
national legislature), but at wartime they are often comm<strong>and</strong>ers in chief.<br />
Sometimes a figurehead can be exploited in times of emergency. For example, Indian Prime<br />
Minister Indira G<strong>and</strong>hi used the figurehead President of India to issue unilateral decrees that<br />
allowed her to bypass parliament when it no longer supported her.<br />
<strong>The</strong> word can also have more sinister overtones, <strong>and</strong> refer to a powerless leader who should<br />
be exercising full authority, yet is actually being controlled by a more powerful figure behind<br />
the throne.<br />
<strong>The</strong> tendency of this word to drift, like many words that are in a strong process of changed<br />
meanings, into the pejorative is beginning to make it unsuitable to apply to a head of state<br />
with limited constitutional authority, such that its use may become increasingly inappropriate<br />
in referring to monarchs <strong>and</strong> presidents in parliamentary systems."<br />

94 "... united by a egalitarian esprit de corps..."<br />
"Esprit de corps, when discussing the morale of a group, is an intangible term used for<br />
the capacity of people to maintain belief in an institution or a goal, or even in oneself<br />
<strong>and</strong> others. According to Alex<strong>and</strong>er H. Leighton, "morale is the capacity of a group of<br />
people to pull together persistently <strong>and</strong> consistently in pursuit of a common<br />
purpose".<br />
224
Egalitarian, (derived from the French word égal, meaning equal) is a political doctrine that<br />
holds that all people should be treated as equals from birth. Generally it applies to being<br />
held equal under the law, the church, <strong>and</strong> society at large. In actual practice, one may be<br />
considered an egalitarian in most areas listed above, even if not subscribing to equality in<br />
every possible area of individual difference. For example, one might support equal rights in<br />
race matters but not in gender issues, or vice versa."<br />

"... Many of the IS-BEs on <strong>Earth</strong> are here because they are violently opposed to<br />
totalitarian governments..."<br />
-- Editor's Note: Coincidentally, or perhaps NOT coincidentally, almost one year after this<br />
interview, the novel "1984" by George Orwell, which was published in June of 1948. <strong>The</strong><br />
state of the U.S. government has grown to mirror many of the features described by Orwell<br />
in the book, "Nineteen Eighty-Four". It is easy to speculate that Orwell may have been<br />
"influenced" by an IS-BE of <strong>The</strong> Domain while writing this book. Or, at the very least, he was<br />
one of the IS-BEs sentenced to <strong>Earth</strong> because he is one of "... the IS-BEs on <strong>Earth</strong> are<br />
here because they are violently opposed to totalitarian governments...".<br />
<strong>The</strong> following description of the basis for Orwell's "1984" are taken verbatim from<br />
Wikipedia.org. It is a very close description of the "Old Empire" government:<br />
"Much of Oceanic society is based upon Stalin's Soviet Union. <strong>The</strong> "Two Minutes' Hate"<br />
was the ritual demonization of State enemies <strong>and</strong> rivals; Big Brother resembles Joseph<br />
Stalin; the Party's archenemy, Emmanuel Goldstein, resembles Leon Trotsky (both are<br />
Jewish, both have the same physiognomy, <strong>and</strong> Trotsky's real surname was 'Bronstein').<br />
Another suggested inspiration for Goldstein is Emma Goldman, the famous Anarchist figure.<br />
Doctored photography is a propag<strong>and</strong>a technique <strong>and</strong> the creation of unpersons in the<br />
story, analogous to Stalin's enemies being made nonpersons <strong>and</strong> being erased from<br />
official photographic records; the police treatment of several characters recalls the<br />
Moscow Trials of the Great Purge."<br />
<strong>The</strong>re a very many interesting parallels between the concepts discussed by Orwell in<br />
"1984", <strong>and</strong> the description of the "Old Empire" government <strong>and</strong> the <strong>Earth</strong> prison<br />
planet activities in the transcripts of the "Alien Interviews" with Airl.<br />
For example, a few of these are parallels cited in the following excerpt from the<br />
internet encyclopedia, Wikipedia.org:<br />
"<strong>The</strong> Thought Police capture Winston <strong>and</strong> Julia in their sanctuary bedroom <strong>and</strong> they are<br />
separately interrogated at the Ministry of Love, where the regime's opponents are tortured<br />
<strong>and</strong> killed, but sometimes released (to be executed at a later date); Charrington, the shop<br />
keeper who rented them the room reveals himself an officer of the Thought Police. In the<br />
Ministry of Love torture chamber, O'Brien tells Smith that he will be cured of his hatred<br />
for the Party. During a session, he explains to Winston that torture's purpose is to alter<br />
his way of thinking, not to extract a fake confession, adding that once cured — accepting<br />
reality as the Party describes — he then will be executed; electroshock torture will<br />
achieve that, continuing until O'Brien decides Winston is cured."<br />

"Nineteen Eighty-Four (also titled 1984), by George Orwell (the pen name of Eric Arthur<br />
Blair), is an English dystopian novel about life in a dictatorship as lived by Winston Smith, an<br />
intellectual worker at the Ministry of Truth, <strong>and</strong> his degradation when he runs afoul of the<br />
totalitarian government of Oceania, the state in which he lives in the year 1984.<br />
Orwell's influences<br />
In the essay Why I Write, Orwell explains that all the serious work he wrote since the<br />
Spanish Civil War in 1936 was "written, directly or indirectly, against totalitarianism <strong>and</strong> for<br />
democratic socialism." <strong>The</strong>refore, Nineteen Eighty-Four is an anti-totalitarian cautionary tale<br />
about the betrayal of a revolution by its defenders. He already had stated distrust of<br />
totalitarianism <strong>and</strong> betrayed revolutions in Homage to Catalonia <strong>and</strong> Animal Farm. Coming<br />
Up For Air, at points, celebrates the personal <strong>and</strong> political freedoms lost in Nineteen Eighty-<br />
Four.<br />
<strong>The</strong> novel's title, its terms <strong>and</strong> its language (Newspeak), <strong>and</strong> its author's surname are<br />
bywords for personal privacy lost to national state security. <strong>The</strong> adjective "Orwellian"<br />
denotes totalitarian action <strong>and</strong> organization; the phrase: Big Brother is Watching You<br />
connotes pervasive, invasive surveillance. <strong>The</strong> following quotation has become famous:<br />
War is Peace<br />
Freedom is Slavery<br />
Ignorance is Strength<br />
Although the novel has been banned or challenged in some countries, it, along with Brave<br />
New World, by Aldous Huxley, <strong>and</strong> Fahrenheit 451, by Ray Bradbury, is among literature's<br />
most famous dystopias. In 2005, Time magazine listed it among the best one hundred<br />
English-language novels published since 1923.<br />
Nineteen Eighty-Four introduces Oceania, one of the world's three intercontinental<br />
totalitarian super-states. <strong>The</strong> story occurs in London, the "chief city of Airstrip One", itself a<br />
province of Oceania that "had been called Engl<strong>and</strong> or Britain". Posters of "Big Brother", the<br />
Party leader, with the caption BIG BRO<strong>THE</strong>R IS WATCHING YOU, dominate the city<br />
l<strong>and</strong>scapes; two-way television (the telescreen) dominates the private <strong>and</strong> public spaces of<br />
the populace.<br />
Oceania's people are in three classes — (i) the Inner Party, (ii) the Outer Party, <strong>and</strong> (iii) the<br />
"Proles". This government, the Party, controls them via the Ministry of Truth (MiniTru), where<br />
Winston Smith, the protagonist, works; he is a member of the Outer Party. His job in MiniTru<br />
is the continual rewriting <strong>and</strong> altering of history so that the government is always right <strong>and</strong><br />
correct: destroying evidence, amending newspaper articles, deleting the existence of people<br />
identified as "unpersons".<br />
<strong>The</strong> story begins on April 4, 1984: "It was a bright cold day in April, <strong>and</strong> the clocks were<br />
striking thirteen." <strong>The</strong> date is questionable, because it is what Winston Smith perceives. In<br />
the story's course, he concludes it as irrelevant, because the State can arbitrarily alter it; the<br />
year 1984 <strong>and</strong> its world are transmutable.<br />
<strong>The</strong> novel does not render the world's full history to 1984. Indeed, because the book<br />
Winston reads is given to him by a Party member, it is possible that the book itself is meant<br />
to be a deception, <strong>and</strong> the history of the world of 1984 is somewhat different. Winston's<br />
226
ecollections, <strong>and</strong> what he reads in <strong>The</strong> <strong>The</strong>ory <strong>and</strong> Practice of Oligarchical Collectivism, by<br />
Emmanuel Goldstein, reveal that after the Second World War, the United Kingdom fell to<br />
civil war, becoming part of Oceania. Simultaneously, the Soviet Union encompassed<br />
mainl<strong>and</strong> Europe, forming Eurasia; the third super state, Eastasia, comprises the east Asian<br />
countries around China <strong>and</strong> Japan.<br />
<strong>The</strong>re was an atomic war, fought mainly in Europe, western Russia, <strong>and</strong> North America. It is<br />
unclear what occurred first: the civil war wherein the Party assumed power or the United<br />
States' annexation of the British Empire or the war during which Colchester was bombed.<br />
During the Second World War, George Orwell repeatedly said that British democracy, as it<br />
existed before 1939, would not survive the war; the question being: Would it end via Fascist<br />
coup d'état (from above) or via Socialist revolution (from below)? During the war, Orwell<br />
admitted events proved him wrong: "What really matters is that I fell into the trap of<br />
assuming that 'the war <strong>and</strong> the revolution are inseparable' "<br />

96 "... Wars are fought with electronic cannon."...<br />
"I have not thought it hazardous to predict, that wars in the future will be waged by<br />
electrical means." -- Nikola Tesla, 1915<br />
Tesla made some remarkable claims concerning a "teleforce" weapon. <strong>The</strong> press called it a<br />
"peace ray" or death ray. In total, the components <strong>and</strong> methods included:<br />
1. An apparatus for producing manifestations of energy in free air instead of in a high<br />
vacuum as in the past. This, according to Tesla in 1934, was accomplished.<br />
2. A mechanism for generating tremendous electrical force. This, according to Tesla,<br />
was also accomplished.<br />
3. A means of intensifying <strong>and</strong> amplifying the force developed by the second<br />
mechanism.<br />
4. A new method for producing a tremendous electrical repelling force. This would be<br />
the projector, or gun, of the invention.<br />
Tesla worked on plans for a directed-energy weapon between the early 1900s till the time of<br />
his death. In 1937, Tesla composed a treatise entitled "<strong>The</strong> Art of Projecting Concentrated<br />
Non-dispersive Energy through the Natural Media" concerning charged particle beams.<br />
Tesla published the document in an attempt to expound on the technical description of a<br />
"superweapon that would put an end to all war". This treatise of the particle beam is currently<br />
in the Nikola Tesla Museum archive in Belgrade. It described an open ended vacuum tube<br />
with a gas jet seal that allowed particles to exit, a method of charging particles to millions of<br />
volts, <strong>and</strong> a method of creating <strong>and</strong> directing nondispersive particle streams (through<br />
electrostatic repulsion).<br />
Records of his indicate that it was based on a narrow stream of atomic clusters of liquid<br />
mercury or tungsten accelerated via high voltage (by means akin to his magnifying<br />
transformer). Tesla gave the following description concerning the particle gun's operation:<br />
[<strong>The</strong> nozzle would] send concentrated beams of particles through the free air, of such<br />
tremendous energy that they will bring down a fleet of 10,000 enemy airplanes at a distance<br />
of 200 miles from a defending nation's border <strong>and</strong> will cause armies to drop dead in their<br />
tracks."<br />

97 "... like the Axis powers..."<br />
"<strong>The</strong> Axis powers, also interpreted as Axis alliance, Axis nations, Axis countries or<br />
sometimes just the Axis were those countries opposed to the Allies during World War II. <strong>The</strong><br />
three major Axis powers, Nazi Germany, Fascist Italy, <strong>and</strong> Imperial Japan were part of a<br />
military alliance on the signing of the Tripartite Pact in September 1940, which officially<br />
founded the Axis powers. At their zenith, the Axis powers ruled empires that dominated large<br />
parts of Europe, Africa, East <strong>and</strong> Southeast Asia <strong>and</strong> the Pacific Ocean, but World War II<br />
ended with their total defeat. Like the Allies, membership of the Axis was fluid, <strong>and</strong> some<br />
nations entered <strong>and</strong> later left the Axis during the course of the war.<br />
<strong>The</strong> term was first used by Benito Mussolini, in November 1936, when he spoke of a Rome-<br />
Berlin axis arising out of the treaty of friendship signed between Italy <strong>and</strong> Germany on<br />
October 25, 1936. Mussolini declared that the two countries would form an "axis" around<br />
which the other states of Europe would revolve. This treaty was forged when Italy, originally<br />
opposed to Germany, was faced with opposition to its war in Abyssinia from the League of<br />
Nations <strong>and</strong> received support from Germany. Later, in May 1939, this relationship<br />
transformed into an alliance, called by Mussolini the "Pact of Steel"."<br />

98 "...Vedic Hymns..."<br />
<strong>The</strong> Vedas are very exhaustive scriptures. Each veda contains several sections <strong>and</strong><br />
thous<strong>and</strong>s of hymns. Some of the Vedic hymns, especially the hymns of the Rig veda, are<br />
considered to be at least 6000-8000 years old. <strong>The</strong> Vedas are believed to be revealed<br />
scriptures, because they are considered to be divine in origin. Since they were not written by<br />
any human beings but were only heard in deep meditative states, they are commonly<br />
referred a "those that were heard".<br />
Here is one of the most famous hymns from the Rig Vega: :<strong>The</strong> Hymn of Creation"<br />
"A time is envisioned when the world was not, only a watery chaos (the dark,<br />
"indistinguishable sea") <strong>and</strong> a warm cosmic breath, which could give an impetus of life.<br />
Notice how thought gives rise to desire (when something is thought of it can then be desired)<br />
<strong>and</strong> desire links non-being to being (we desire what is not but then try to bring it about that it<br />
is). Yet the whole process is shrouded in mystery.<br />
Where do the gods fit in this creation scheme?<br />
<strong>The</strong> non-existent was not; the existent was not at that time. <strong>The</strong> atmosphere was not nor the<br />
heavens which are beyond. What was concealed? Where? In whose protection? Was it<br />
water? An unfathomable abyss?<br />
<strong>The</strong>re was neither death nor immortality then. <strong>The</strong>re was not distinction of day or night. That<br />
alone breathed windless by its own power. Other than that there was not anything else.<br />
Darkness was hidden by darkness in the beginning. All this was an indistinguishable sea.<br />
That which becomes, that which was enveloped by the void, that alone was born through the<br />
power of heat.<br />
228
Upon that desire arose in the beginning. This was the first discharge of thought. Sages<br />
discovered this link of the existent to the nonexistent, having searched in the heart with<br />
wisdom.<br />
<strong>The</strong>ir line [of vision] was extended across; what was below, what was above? <strong>The</strong>re were<br />
impregnators, there were powers: inherent power below, impulses above.<br />
Who knows truly? Who here will declare whence it arose, whence this creation? <strong>The</strong> gods<br />
are subsequent to the creation of this. Who, then, knows whence it has come into being?<br />
Whence this creation has come into being; whether it was made or not; he in the highest<br />
heaven is its surveyor. Surely he knows, or perhaps he knows not."<br />

99 "... the Aryan people..."<br />
"<strong>The</strong> Vedic term arya- in its earliest attestations has a meaning of "stranger", but<br />
"stranger" in the sense of "potential guest". <strong>The</strong> Sanskrit lexicon defines Arya as<br />
mahākula kulīnārya "being of a noble family", sabhya "having gentle or refined<br />
behavior <strong>and</strong> demeanor", sajjana "being well-born <strong>and</strong> respectable", <strong>and</strong> sādhava<br />
"being virtuous, honourable, or righteous". Arya, is a title of honor <strong>and</strong> respect given<br />
to certain people for noble behavior.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Aryan race was a term used in the early 20th century by European racial theorists who<br />
believed strongly in the division of humanity into biologically distinct races with differing<br />
characteristics. Such writers believed that the Proto-Indo-Europeans constituted a specific<br />
race that had exp<strong>and</strong>ed across parts of Europe, Iran <strong>and</strong> small parts of northern India. This<br />
usage tends to merge the Sanskrit meaning of "noble" or "elevated" with the idea of<br />
distinctive behavioral <strong>and</strong> ancestral ethnicity marked by language distribution.<br />
Nazism portrayed their interpretation of an "Aryan race" as the only race capable of, or with<br />
an interest in, creating <strong>and</strong> maintaining culture <strong>and</strong> civilizations, while other races are merely<br />
capable of conversion, or destruction of culture. <strong>The</strong>se arguments derived from late<br />
nineteenth century racial hierarchies. Some Nazis were also influenced by Madame<br />
Blavatsky's <strong>The</strong> Secret Doctrine (1888) where she postulates "Aryans" as the fifth of her<br />
"Root Races", dating them to about a million years ago, tracing them to Atlantis,<br />
Because of historical racist use of Aryan, <strong>and</strong> especially use of Aryan race in connection with<br />
the propag<strong>and</strong>a of Nazism, the word is sometimes avoided in the West as being tainted, in<br />
the same manner as the swastika symbol. Currently, India <strong>and</strong> Iran are the only countries<br />
to use the word Aryan in a demographic denomination."<br />

100 "... the Vedic Hymns..."<br />
"<strong>The</strong> term veda means "knowledge, (sacred) lore" embraces a body of writings the origin<br />
of which is ascribed to divine revelation (shruti, literally "hearing"), <strong>and</strong> which forms the<br />
foundation of the Brahmanical system of religious belief. This sacred canon is divided into<br />
three or (according to a later scheme) four co-ordinate collections, likewise called Veda:<br />
229
(I) the Rig-veda, or lore of praise (or hymns); (2) the Samaveda, or lore of tunes (or<br />
chants); (3) the Yajurveda, or lore of prayer (or sacrificial formulas); <strong>and</strong> (4) the Atharvaveda,<br />
or lore of the Atharvans. Each of these four Vedas consists primarily of a collection<br />
(samihita) of sacred, mostly poetical, texts of a devotional nature, called mantra. This entire<br />
body of texts (<strong>and</strong> particularly the first three collections) is also frequently referred to as the<br />
trayi vidya, or threefold wisdom, of hymns (rik), tune or chant (saman), <strong>and</strong> prayer (yajus),<br />
the fourth Veda, if at all included, being in that case classed together with the Rik."<br />

101 "...Vishnu..."<br />
"Vishnu is the All-Pervading essence of all beings, the master of <strong>and</strong> beyond the past,<br />
present <strong>and</strong> future, the creator <strong>and</strong> destroyer of all existences, one who supports, sustains<br />
<strong>and</strong> governs the Universe <strong>and</strong> originates <strong>and</strong> develops all elements within. In the Rigveda,<br />
Vishnu is mentioned 93 times.<br />
<strong>The</strong> traditional Sanskrit explanation of the name Vi u involves the root viś, meaning "to<br />
settle, to enter", or "to pervade", <strong>and</strong> a suffix nu, translating to approximately "the All-<br />
Pervading One".<br />
He has nine avatars, or 'incarnations' (which) are described as having occurred in the past,<br />
with one still to happen at the end of Kali Yuga. <strong>The</strong> Bhagavad Gita mentions their purpose<br />
as being to vanquish negative forces."<br />
-- Reference: Wikipedia.org<br />
102 "...past lives."<br />
A "past lives" scenario automatically infers a "future life" in the context of an amnesia <strong>and</strong><br />
prison planet operation. This implies the phenomenon of reincarnation:<br />
"Reincarnation literally "to be made flesh again", is a doctrine or metaphysical belief that<br />
some essential part of a living being (in some variations only human beings) survives death<br />
to be reborn in a new body. This essential part is often referred to as the spirit or soul, the<br />
"higher" or "true" self, "divine spark", or "I". According to such beliefs, a new personality is<br />
developed during each life in the physical world, but some part of the self remains constant<br />
throughout the successive lives.<br />
Belief in reincarnation is an ancient phenomenon. This doctrine is a central tenet within the<br />
majority of Indian religious traditions, such as Hinduism (including Yoga, Vaishnavism, <strong>and</strong><br />
Shaivism), Jainism, <strong>and</strong> Sikhism. <strong>The</strong> idea was also entertained by some Ancient Greek<br />
philosophers. Many modern Pagans also believe in reincarnation as do some New Age<br />
movements, along with followers of Spiritism, practitioners of certain African traditions, <strong>and</strong><br />
students of esoteric philosophies such as Kabbalah, Sufism <strong>and</strong> Gnostic <strong>and</strong> Esoteric<br />
Christianity. <strong>The</strong> Buddhist concept of Rebirth although often referred to as reincarnation<br />
differs significantly from the Hindu-based traditions <strong>and</strong> New Age movements in that there is<br />
no "self" (or eternal soul) to reincarnate.<br />
During recent decades, a significant minority of people in the West have developed a belief<br />
in reincarnation. Notable exceptions include Henry Ford <strong>and</strong> General George Patton.<br />
230
Henry Ford was convinced he had lived before, most recently as a soldier killed at the battle<br />
of Gettysburg. A quote from the San Francisco Examiner from August 26, 1928 described<br />
Ford's beliefs:<br />
"I adopted the theory of Reincarnation when I was twenty-six. Religion offered<br />
nothing to the point. Even work could not give me complete satisfaction. Work is<br />
futile if we cannot utilize the experience we collect in one life in the next. When I<br />
discovered Reincarnation it was as if I had found a universal plan I realized that<br />
there was a chance to work out my ideas. Time was no longer limited. I was no<br />
longer a slave to the h<strong>and</strong>s of the clock. Genius is experience. Some seem to think<br />
that it is a gift or talent, but it is the fruit of long experience in many lives. Some are<br />
older souls than others, <strong>and</strong> so they know more. <strong>The</strong> discovery of Reincarnation put<br />
my mind at ease. If you preserve a record of this conversation, write it so that it puts<br />
men’s minds at ease. I would like to communicate to others the calmness that the<br />
long view of life gives to us."<br />
General George S. Patton was a staunch believer in reincarnation <strong>and</strong>, along with many<br />
other members of his family, often claimed to have seen vivid, lifelike visions of his<br />
ancestors. In particular, Patton believed he was a reincarnation of Carthaginian General<br />
Hannibal.<br />
<strong>The</strong> most detailed collections of personal reports in favor of reincarnation have been<br />
published by Professor Ian Stevenson, from the University of Virginia, in books such as<br />
Twenty Cases Suggestive of Reincarnation.<br />
Stevenson spent over 40 years devoted to the study of children who have apparently spoken<br />
about a past life. In each case, Professor Stevenson methodically documented the child's<br />
statements. <strong>The</strong>n he identified the deceased person the child allegedly identified with, <strong>and</strong><br />
verified the facts of the deceased person's life that matched the child's memory. He also<br />
matched birthmarks <strong>and</strong> birth defects to wounds <strong>and</strong> scars on the deceased, verified by<br />
medical records such as autopsy photographs.<br />
In a fairly typical case, a boy in Beirut spoke of being a 25-year-old mechanic, thrown to his<br />
death from a speeding car on a beach road. According to multiple witnesses, the boy<br />
provided the name of the driver, the exact location of the crash, the names of the mechanic's<br />
sisters <strong>and</strong> parents <strong>and</strong> cousins, <strong>and</strong> the people he went hunting with -- all of which turned<br />
out to match the life of a man who had died several years before the boy was born, <strong>and</strong> who<br />
had no apparent connection to the boy's family.<br />
Stevenson believed that his strict methods ruled out all possible "normal" explanations for<br />
the child’s memories. However, it should be noted that a significant majority of Professor<br />
Stevenson's reported cases of reincarnation originate in Eastern societies, where dominant<br />
religions often permit the concept of reincarnation. Following this type of criticism, Stevenson<br />
published a book on European cases suggestive of reincarnation."<br />

103 "...Moses..."<br />
"<strong>The</strong> cartouche of Akhenaten's god <strong>and</strong> heavenly father, the Aten, bore the name Imram. In<br />
the Bible, Moses is referred to as the son of Amram, the Hebrew equivalent.<br />
231
<strong>The</strong> name of the Egyptian deity Aten transliterates into the Hebrew word Adon. Adon,<br />
which is translated by English Bibles as "the Lord" (<strong>and</strong> Adonai, translated as "my Lord") is<br />
used along with Jehovah (Yhwh) in the Bible as the exclusive personal names of God.<br />
Moreover, in ancient times, the name Jehovah (Yhwh) was written, but never spoken.<br />
Whenever the written name Jehovah (Yhwh) was to be read out loud, Adon (Aten) was<br />
voiced instead. <strong>The</strong> written form of Adon is infrequent, however, its limited usage is<br />
significant, especially in the first six books of the Bible (See under "LORD" in Strong's<br />
Exhaustive Concordance), where it is reserved for the following applications alone: Moses<br />
addresses God using the title Adon/Aten (Exodus 4:10,13; 5:22; 34:9; Numbers 14:17;<br />
Deuteronomy 3:23; 7:26; 10:17); Moses, himself, is addressed both by Aaron<br />
(Ex.32:22; Num.12:11) <strong>and</strong> by Joshua (Numbers 11:28) using the title Adon/Aten; <strong>and</strong><br />
Joshua also addresses God using the title Adon/Aten (Joshua 5:14 b; 7:7). As<br />
mentioned above, there is an established relationship between the literature of the Egyptian<br />
18th Dynasty <strong>and</strong> the Bible. Psalm 104 is an embellishment of the Hymn to the Aten which<br />
was found by archaeologists at the city of Akhetaten."<br />
http://www.domainofman.com/ankhemmaat/moses.html<br />
"Recent <strong>and</strong> non-Biblical view places Moses as a noble in the court of the Pharaoh<br />
Akhenaten. A significant number of scholars, from Sigmund Freud to Joseph Campbell,<br />
suggest that Moses may have fled Egypt after Akhenaten's death (ca. 1334 BC) when many<br />
of the pharaoh's monotheistic reforms were being violently reversed. <strong>The</strong> principal ideas<br />
behind this theory are: the monotheistic religion of Akhenaten being a possible<br />
predecessor to Moses' monotheism, <strong>and</strong> the "Amarna Letters", written by nobles to<br />
Akhenaten, which describe raiding b<strong>and</strong>s of "Habiru" attacking the Egyptian territories in<br />
Mesopotamia."<br />

"Amenhotep III, meaning Amun is Satisfied was the ninth pharaoh of the Eighteenth<br />
dynasty. According to different authors, he ruled Egypt from June 1391 BC-December 1353<br />
BCE or June 1388 BCE to December 1351 BC/1350 BCE after his father Thutmose IV died.<br />
Amenhotep III was the son of Thutmose IV by Mutemwia, a minor wife of Amenhotep's<br />
father. Amenhotep III fathered two sons with his Great Royal Wife Tiye, a great queen<br />
known as the progenitor of monotheism via the Crown Prince Tuthmose who predeceased<br />
his father, <strong>and</strong> his second son, Akhenaten, who ultimately succeeded him to the throne."<br />

Eighteenth dynasty of Egypt. He is especially noted for attempting to compel the Egyptian<br />
population in the monotheistic worship of Aten, although there are doubts as to how<br />
successful he was at this.<br />
Amenhotep IV succeeded his father after Amenhotep III's death at the end of his 38-year<br />
reign, possibly after a coregency lasting between either 1 to 2 or 12 years. Suggested dates<br />
for Akhenaten's reign (subject to the debates surrounding Egyptian chronology) are from<br />
1353 BCE - 1336 BCE or 1351 BCE – 1334 BCE Akhenaten's chief wife was Nefertiti.<br />
232
His religious reformation appears to have begun with his decision to celebrate a Sed festival<br />
in his third regnal year – a highly unusual step, since a Sed-festival, a sort of royal jubilee<br />
intended to reinforce the Pharaoh's divine powers of kingship, was traditionally held in the<br />
thirtieth year of a Pharaoh's reign.<br />
Year eight marked the beginning of construction on his new capital, Akhetaten ('Horizon of<br />
Aten'), at the site known today as Amarna. In the same year, Amenhotep IV officially<br />
changed his name to Akhenaten ('Effective Spirit of Aten') as evidence of his shifting<br />
religious perspective. Very soon afterward he centralized Egyptian religious practices in<br />
Akhenaten, though construction of the city seems to have continued for several more years.<br />
In honor of Aten, Akhenaten also oversaw the construction of some of the most massive<br />
temple complexes in ancient Egypt, including one at Karnak, close to the old temple of<br />
Amun. In these new temples, Aten was worshipped in the open sunlight, rather than in dark<br />
temple enclosures, as had been the previous custom. Akhenaten is also believed to have<br />
composed the Great Hymn to the Aten.<br />
Initially, Akhenaten presented Aten as a variant of the familiar supreme deity Amun-Ra (itself<br />
the result of an earlier rise to prominence of the cult of Amun, resulting in Amun becoming<br />
merged with the sun god Ra), in an attempt to put his ideas in a familiar Egyptian religious<br />
context. However, by Year 9 of his reign Akhenaten declared that Aten was not merely the<br />
supreme god, but the only god, <strong>and</strong> that he, Akhenaten, was the only intermediary between<br />
Aten <strong>and</strong> his people. He ordered the defacing of Amun's temples throughout Egypt, <strong>and</strong> in a<br />
number of instances inscriptions of the plural 'gods' were also removed.<br />
Aten's name is also written differently after Year 9, to emphasize the radicalism of the new<br />
regime, which included a ban on idols, with the exception of a rayed solar disc, in which the<br />
rays (commonly depicted ending in h<strong>and</strong>s) appear to represent the unseen spirit of Aten,<br />
who by then was evidently considered not merely a sun god, but rather a universal deity. It is<br />
important to note, however, that representations of the Aten were always accompanied with<br />
a sort of "hieroglyphic footnote", stating that the representation of the sun as Allencompassing<br />
Creator was to be taken as just that: a representation of something that, by<br />
its very nature as something transcending creation, cannot be fully or adequately<br />
represented by any one part of that creation."<br />
This Amarna period is also associated with a serious outbreak of a p<strong>and</strong>emic, possibly the<br />
plague, or polio, or perhaps the world's first recorded outbreak of influenza, which came from<br />
Egypt <strong>and</strong> spread throughout the Middle East, killing Suppiluliuma I, the Hittite King.<br />
Influenza is a disease associated with the close proximity of water fowl, pigs <strong>and</strong> humans,<br />
<strong>and</strong> its origin as a p<strong>and</strong>emic disease may be due to the development of agricultural systems<br />
that allow the mixing of these animals <strong>and</strong> their wastes.<br />
Some of the first archaeological evidence for this agricultural system is during the Amarna<br />
period of Ancient Egypt, <strong>and</strong> the p<strong>and</strong>emic that followed this period throughout the Ancient<br />
Near East may have been the earliest recorded outbreak of influenza. However, the precise<br />
nature of this Egyptian plague remains unknown <strong>and</strong> Asia has also been suggested<br />
as a possible site of origin of p<strong>and</strong>emic influenza in humans. <strong>The</strong> prevalence of disease<br />
may help explain the rapidity with which the site of Akhetaten was subsequently ab<strong>and</strong>oned.<br />
It may also explain why later generations considered the gods to have turned against<br />
the Amarna monarchs. <strong>The</strong> black plague has also been suggested due to the fact that at<br />
Amarna the traces of the plague have been found."<br />

106 "... Nefertiti...<br />
"Nefertiti (pronounced at the time something like *nafratita) (c. 1370 BCE - c. 1330 BCE)<br />
was the Great Royal Wife (or chief consort/wife) of the Egyptian Pharaoh Akhenaten. She<br />
was the mother-in-law <strong>and</strong> probable stepmother of the Pharaoh Tutankhamun. Nefertiti may<br />
have also ruled as pharaoh in her own right under the name Neferneferuaten briefly after her<br />
husb<strong>and</strong>'s death <strong>and</strong> before the accession of Tutankhamun, although this identification is<br />
doubted by the latest research. Her name roughly translates to "the beautiful (or perfect) one<br />
has arrived". She also shares her name with a type of elongated gold bead, called "nefer",<br />
that she was often portrayed as wearing. She was made famous by her bust, now in Berlin's<br />
Altes Museum.<br />
Nefertiti's parentage is not known with certainty, but it is now generally believed that she was<br />
the daughter of AY later to be pharaoh. Another theory that gained some support identified<br />
Nefertiti with the Mitanni princess Tadukhipa. <strong>The</strong> name Nimerithin has been mentioned in<br />
older scrolls, as an alternative name, but this has not yet been officially confirmed. It has<br />
also been suggested that Nefertiti was a daughter or relative of Amenhotep III, or of the high<br />
<strong>The</strong>ban nobility. Another theory places Nefertiti as the daughter of Sitamun, half-sister of<br />
Amenhotep III. Queen Iaret was Sitamun's mother. Iaret held important hereditary titles that<br />
ceased to exist after the ascension of Amenhotep III. Sitamun is elevated to Great Royal<br />
Wife beside Tiye but there is no indication that she ever had children <strong>and</strong> if so with whom.<br />
<strong>The</strong>re is some evidence based upon the titles of each of these women that suggests that<br />
they were somehow related to one another in her family... Her name means "beautiful one".<br />
Nefertiti only worshiped one god by the name of Aten. Depending on which reconstruction of<br />
the genealogy of the ancient Egyptian pharaohs is followed, her husb<strong>and</strong> Akhenaten may<br />
have been the father or half-brother of the Pharaoh Tutankhaten (later called Tutankhamen).<br />
She had six known daughters with the Pharaoh Akhenaten. This is a list with suggested<br />
years of birth:<br />
• Meritaten: Before year one or the very beginning of year one.(1356 BC).<br />
• Meketaten: Year 1 or three (1349 BC).<br />
• Ankhesenpaaten, later queen of Tutankhamun<br />
• Neferneferuaten Tasherit: Year 6 (1344 BC)<br />
• Neferneferure: Year 9 (1341 BC).<br />
• Setepenre: Year 11 (1339 BC)."<br />

107 "... Tutankhamun..."<br />
"He was the son of Akhenaten, also known as Amenhotep IV, <strong>and</strong> his minor wife Queen<br />
Kiya. Queen Kiya's title was "Greatly Beloved Wife of Akhenaten" so it is possible that she<br />
could have borne him an heir. Supporting this theory, images on the tomb wall in the tomb of<br />
Akhenaten show a royal fan bearer st<strong>and</strong>ing next to Kiya's death bed, fanning what is either<br />
a princess or more likely a wet nurse holding a baby, which would indicate that the wet nurse<br />
was holding the boy-king-to-be.<br />
Tutankhamun was only nine or ten years old when he became pharaoh, <strong>and</strong> reigned for<br />
approximately ten years, making him nineteen years old at death. In historical terms<br />
Tutankhamun significance stems from his rejection of the radical religious innovations<br />
234
introduced by his predecessor Akenhaten <strong>and</strong> that his tomb, uniquely, in the Valley of the<br />
Kings was discovered almost completely intact -- the most complete ancient Egyptian tomb<br />
ever found. As Tutankhamun began his reign at such an early age, his vizier <strong>and</strong> eventual<br />
successor Ay was probably making most of the important political decisions during<br />
Tutankhamun's reign."<br />

108 ..."Brothers of the Snake"...<br />
"It cannot be overemphasized that the serpent or snake plays no role in the teachings or<br />
ritual of regular Freemasonry. Its introduction as a fastener for masonic aprons is easily seen<br />
as the work of regalia manufacturers. That said, the symbolic usages of the snake are of<br />
interest to students of religion, esoterica, <strong>and</strong> of history.<br />
On the other h<strong>and</strong>, George Oliver writes that the serpent is a "significant symbol in<br />
Freemasonry : Moses' rod changed into a serpent, "<strong>The</strong> serpentine emblem of Masonry... is<br />
a bright symbol of Hope; for the promised Deliverer will open the gates of Heaven to his<br />
faithful followers by bruising its head, <strong>and</strong> they shall enter triumphantly, trampling on its<br />
prostrate body." "A striking emblem of Christianity triumphant; <strong>and</strong> bearing an undoubted<br />
reference to the promise made to Adam after his unhappy fall." In mainstream Christian<br />
beliefs, the snake represents temptation <strong>and</strong> evil: the snake is the servant of Satan. But it<br />
has also had its more positive significance.<br />
In ancient Egyptian mythology the world was created by four powers, one of which was the<br />
sun god Amun-Ra who took the form of a snake <strong>and</strong> emerged from the water to<br />
inseminated the cosmic egg, the kneph, which was created by the other gods. In another<br />
story, a god named Hathor transformed himself into a poisonous snake called Agep <strong>and</strong><br />
killed Seth. He also guarded the wheat fields where the spirit of Horus was said to live,<br />
bringing the sheaf of wheat to be regarded as the symbol of rebirth. W. Bro. H. Meij suggests<br />
that this is the root of the masonic usage of an ear of corn in the Fellowcraft degree.<br />
In Greek mythology Zeus freed two eagles which met at the centre of the world, sometimes<br />
called the navel of the earth, which is guarded by a snake called Pytho. <strong>The</strong> symbol Serpens<br />
C<strong>and</strong>ivorens, a snake biting its tail, represents the unending cycle of nature between<br />
destruction, <strong>and</strong> new creation, life <strong>and</strong> death. <strong>The</strong> Greeks called this figure Ouroboros.<br />
Chinese mythology maintained that the world was surrounded by two entwined snakes,<br />
which symbolized the power <strong>and</strong> wisdom of the creator. In another legend the Buddha was<br />
attacked by a snake which bound itself seven times around his waist. Due to the inner<br />
strength of the Buddha, the snake could not kill him but instead became his follower.<br />
Astrologers, or those interested in the historical development of astrology, will point out that<br />
some systems include a thirteenth sign of the zodiac known as Ophiuchus Serpentarius, the<br />
Serpent Holder. This constellation lies between Sagittarius <strong>and</strong> Libra, somewhat over<br />
Scorpio. In the sixteenth <strong>and</strong> seventeenth centuries this constellation was called Alpheichius.<br />
Known as the "God of Invocation", this house was named after the legendary healer,<br />
Ophiuchus (Asclepius). <strong>The</strong> two serpents in his h<strong>and</strong>s later replaced the twin ribbons around<br />
the caduceus which became a symbol for physicians."<br />

109 "...assassinated by the Priests of Amen..."<br />
"<strong>The</strong> High Priest of Amun or First Prophet of Amun was the highest ranking priest in the<br />
priesthood of the ancient Egyptian god Amun.<br />
"Maya" was the High Priest of Amen until year 4 of Akhenaten. Redford speculates that<br />
Maya is short for Ptahmose <strong>and</strong> that Ptahmose served from the end of the reign of<br />
Amenhotep III until the beginning of the time of Akhenaten.<br />
"Parennefer" was the High Priest of Amen during the reigns of Tutankhamen <strong>and</strong><br />
Horemheb."<br />

110 "...Moses..."<br />
"(<strong>The</strong> Exodus of Hebrew slave from Egypt, led by Moses) may have occurred around 1400s<br />
BC, since the Amarna letters, written ca. forty years later to Pharaohs Amenhotep III <strong>and</strong><br />
Amenhotep IV (Akhenaten) indicate that Canaan was being invaded by the "Habiru" —<br />
whom some scholars in the 1950s to 1970s interpret to mean "Hebrews".<br />
Exodus 34:29-35 tells that after meeting with God the skin of Moses' face became radiant,<br />
frightening the Israelites <strong>and</strong> leading Moses to wear a veil. Jonathan Kirsch, in his book<br />
Moses: A Life, thought that, since he subsequently had to wear a veil to hide it, Moses' face<br />
was disfigured by a sort of "divine radiation burn".<br />

111 .. Yahweh..."<br />
"<strong>The</strong> cartouche of Akhenaten's god <strong>and</strong> heavenly father, the Aten, bore the name Imram. In<br />
the Bible, Moses is referred to as the son of Amram, the Hebrew equivalent. <strong>The</strong> name of<br />
the Egyptian deity Aten transliterates into the Hebrew word Adon. Adon, which is<br />
translated by English Bibles as "the Lord" (<strong>and</strong> Adonai, translated as "my Lord") is used<br />
along with Jehovah (Yhwh) in the Bible as the exclusive personal names of God. Moreover,<br />
in ancient times, the name Jehovah (Yhwh) was written, but never spoken. Whenever the<br />
written name Jehovah (Yhwh) was to be read out loud, Adon (Aten) was voiced instead. <strong>The</strong><br />
written form of Adon is infrequent, however, its limited usage is significant, especially in the<br />
first six books of the Bible (See under "LORD" in Strong's Exhaustive Concordance), where<br />
it is reserved for the following applications alone: Moses addresses God using the title<br />
Adon/Aten (Exodus 4:10,13; 5:22; 34:9; Numbers 14:17; Deuteronomy 3:23; 7:26;<br />
10:17); Moses, himself, is addressed both by Aaron (Ex.32:22; Num.12:11) <strong>and</strong> by<br />
Joshua (Numbers 11:28) using the title Adon/Aten; <strong>and</strong> Joshua also addresses God<br />
using the title Adon/Aten (Joshua 5:14 b; 7:7). As mentioned above, there is an<br />
established relationship between the literature of the Egyptian 18th Dynasty <strong>and</strong> the Bible.<br />
Psalm 104 is an embellishment of the Hymn to the Aten which was found by archaeologists<br />
at the city of Akhetaten."<br />

"Yahweh is an English rendition of יהוה, the name of the God of Israel. During the<br />
Babylonian captivity, the Hebrew language spoken by the Jews was replaced by the<br />
236
Aramaic language of their Babylonian captors, which was closely related to Hebrew <strong>and</strong>,<br />
while sharing many vocabulary words in common, contained some words that sounded the<br />
same or similar but had other meanings. In Aramaic, the Hebrew word for “blaspheme” used<br />
in Leviticus 24:16, “Anyone who blasphemes the name of YHWH must be put to death”<br />
carried the meaning of “pronounce” rather than “blaspheme”.<br />

112 "...Torah...decoded..."<br />
"<strong>The</strong> Bible Code is a best-selling controversial book by Michael Drosnin, first published in<br />
1997. A sequel, <strong>The</strong> Bible Code II, was published in 2002 <strong>and</strong> also reached best-seller<br />
status.<br />
Drosnin describes an alleged "Bible code", in which messages are encoded in the Hebrew<br />
bible. <strong>The</strong> messages are purported to be hidden in the Torah, <strong>and</strong> can be deciphered by<br />
placing the letters of various Torah passages at equal intervals in a text that has been<br />
formatted to fit inside a graph.<br />
Drosnin suggests that the Code was written by extraterrestrial life (which he claims also<br />
brought the DNA of the human genetic code to <strong>Earth</strong>). Drosnin elaborates on this theory in<br />
<strong>The</strong> Bible Code II, suggesting that the alien who brought the code left the key to the code in<br />
a steel obelisk. Drosnin attempted to find this obelisk, which he believes is buried near the<br />
Dead Sea. Drosnin's book is based on the technique described in the paper "Equidistant<br />
Letter Sequences in the Book of Genesis" by Professor Eliyahu Rips of the Hebrew<br />
University in Israel with Doron Witztum <strong>and</strong> Yoav Rosenberg."<br />

113 "... Buddha ..."<br />
"<strong>The</strong> following points are the a few of the fundamentals of the teachings attributed to<br />
Gautama Buddha:<br />
<strong>The</strong> Four Noble Truths: that suffering is an inherent part of existence; that the origin<br />
of suffering is ignorance <strong>and</strong> the main symptoms of that ignorance are attachment <strong>and</strong><br />
craving; that attachment <strong>and</strong> craving can be ceased; <strong>and</strong> that following the Noble Eightfold<br />
Path will lead to the cessation of attachment <strong>and</strong> craving <strong>and</strong> therefore suffering.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Noble Eightfold Path: right underst<strong>and</strong>ing, right thought, right speech, right<br />
action, right livelihood, right effort, right mindfulness, <strong>and</strong> right concentration.<br />
Dependent origination: that any phenomenon 'exists' only because of the ‘existence’<br />
of other phenomena in a complex web of cause <strong>and</strong> effect covering time past, present <strong>and</strong><br />
future.<br />
Because all things are thus conditioned <strong>and</strong> transient (anicca), they have no real<br />
independent identity (anatta).<br />
Anicca (Sanskrit: anitya): That all things are impermanent.<br />
Anatta (Sanskrit: anātman): That the perception of a constant "self" is an illusion.<br />
Dukkha (Sanskrit: du kha): That all beings suffer from all situations due to unclear<br />
mind.<br />
According to tradition, the Buddha emphasized ethics <strong>and</strong> correct underst<strong>and</strong>ing. He<br />
questioned the average person's notions of divinity <strong>and</strong> salvation. He stated that gods are<br />
subjected to karma themselves; <strong>and</strong> the Buddha is solely a guide <strong>and</strong> teacher for the<br />
237
sentient beings who must tread the path of Nirvā a themselves to attain the spiritual<br />
awakening called bodhi <strong>and</strong> see truth <strong>and</strong> reality as it is. <strong>The</strong> Buddhist system of insight <strong>and</strong><br />
meditation practice is not believed to have been revealed divinely, but by the underst<strong>and</strong>ing<br />
of the true nature of the mind, which must be discovered by personally treading a spiritual<br />
path guided by the Buddha's teachings."<br />
-- Reference: Wikipedia.org<br />
114 "... Laozi..."<br />
"<strong>The</strong> Daodejing, often called simply the Laozi after its reputed author, describes the Dao (or<br />
Tao) as the mystical source <strong>and</strong> ideal of all existence: it is unseen, but not transcendent,<br />
immensely powerful yet supremely humble, being the root of all things. According to the<br />
Daodejing, humans have no special place within the Dao, being just one of its many ("ten<br />
thous<strong>and</strong>") manifestations. People have desires <strong>and</strong> free will (<strong>and</strong> thus are able to alter their<br />
own nature). Many act "unnaturally", upsetting the natural balance of the Dao. <strong>The</strong><br />
Daodejing intends to lead students to a "return" to their natural state, in harmony with Dao.<br />
Language <strong>and</strong> conventional wisdom are critically assessed. Taoism views them as<br />
inherently biased <strong>and</strong> artificial, widely using paradoxes to sharpen the point.<br />
Wu wei, literally "non-action" or "not acting", is a central concept of the Daodejing. <strong>The</strong><br />
concept of wu wei is very complex <strong>and</strong> reflected in the words' multiple meanings, even in<br />
English translation; it can mean "not doing anything", "not forcing", "not acting" in the<br />
theatrical sense, "creating nothingness", "acting spontaneously", <strong>and</strong> "flowing with the<br />
moment."<br />
Laozi used the term broadly with simplicity <strong>and</strong> humility as key virtues, often in contrast to<br />
selfish action. On a political level, it means avoiding such circumstances as war, harsh laws<br />
<strong>and</strong> heavy taxes. Some Taoists see a connection between wu wei <strong>and</strong> esoteric practices,<br />
such as the "sitting in oblivion" (emptying the mind of bodily awareness <strong>and</strong> thought) found<br />
in the Zhuangzi.<br />
Taoism is a religion addressing the quest of immortality."<br />

115 "...Zoroaster..."<br />
"<strong>The</strong> best known (Zoroastrians were the) Magi, the "Wise Men from the East" in the Bible,<br />
(who brought gifts to Bethlehem) <strong>and</strong> whose graves Marco Polo claimed to have seen in<br />
what is today the district of Saveh, near Tehran, Iran. In English, the term is the origin of<br />
the words magic <strong>and</strong> magician.<br />
"Many traits of Zoroastrianism can be traced back to the culture <strong>and</strong> beliefs of the proto-<br />
Indo-Iranian period, <strong>and</strong> Zoroastrianism consequently shares some elements with the<br />
historical Vedic religion that also has its origins in that era.<br />
Central to Zoroastrianism is the emphasis on moral choice, to choose between the<br />
responsibility <strong>and</strong> duty for which one is in the mortal world, or to give up this duty <strong>and</strong><br />
so facilitate the work of druj. Similarly, predestination is rejected in Zoroastrian teaching.<br />
Humans bear responsibility for all situations they are in, <strong>and</strong> in the way they act to one<br />
another. Reward, punishment, happiness <strong>and</strong> grief all depend on how individuals live<br />
their life.<br />
238
In Zoroastrianism, good transpires for those who do righteous deeds. Those who do evil<br />
have themselves to blame for their ruin. Zoroastrian morality is then to be summed up in the<br />
simple phrase, "good thoughts, good words, good deeds".<br />
<strong>The</strong>re is one universal <strong>and</strong> transcendental God, Ahura Mazda, the one uncreated creator<br />
<strong>and</strong> to whom all worship is ultimately directed.<br />
Ahura Mazda's creation — evident as truth <strong>and</strong> order — is the antithesis of chaos, falsehood<br />
<strong>and</strong> disorder. <strong>The</strong> resulting conflict involves the entire universe, including humanity, which<br />
has an active role to play in the conflict.<br />
Active participation in life through good thoughts, good words <strong>and</strong> good deeds is necessary<br />
to ensure happiness <strong>and</strong> to keep the chaos at bay. This active participation is a central<br />
element in Zoroaster's concept of free will."<br />

116 "<strong>The</strong> l<strong>and</strong> masses continually crack, crumble <strong>and</strong> drift."<br />
"Plate tectonics (from Greek τέκτων, tektōn "builder" or "mason") is a theory of geology that<br />
has been developed to explain the observed evidence for large scale motions of the <strong>Earth</strong>'s<br />
lithosphere. <strong>The</strong> theory encompassed <strong>and</strong> superseded the older theory of continental drift<br />
from the first half of the 20th century <strong>and</strong> the concept of seafloor spreading developed during<br />
the 1960s.<br />
<strong>The</strong> outermost part of the <strong>Earth</strong>'s interior is made up of two layers: above is the lithosphere,<br />
comprising the crust <strong>and</strong> the rigid uppermost part of the mantle. Below the lithosphere lies<br />
the asthenosphere. Although solid, the asthenosphere has relatively low viscosity <strong>and</strong> shear<br />
strength <strong>and</strong> can flow like a liquid on geological time scales. <strong>The</strong> deeper mantle below the<br />
asthenosphere is more rigid again. This is, however, not because of cooler temperatures but<br />
due to high pressure.<br />
<strong>The</strong> lithosphere is broken up into what are called tectonic plates — in the case of <strong>Earth</strong>,<br />
there are seven major <strong>and</strong> many minor plates. <strong>The</strong> lithospheric plates ride on the<br />
asthenosphere. <strong>The</strong>se plates move in relation to one another at one of three types of plate<br />
boundaries: convergent or collision boundaries, divergent or spreading boundaries, <strong>and</strong><br />
transform boundaries. <strong>Earth</strong>quakes, volcanic activity, mountain-building, <strong>and</strong> oceanic trench<br />
formation occur along plate boundaries. <strong>The</strong> lateral movement of the plates is typically at<br />
speeds of 5 - 10 centimeters / yr."<br />
-- Reference: Wikipedia.org<br />
117 " <strong>The</strong> magnetic poles of the planet shift radically about once every 20,000 years".<br />
"<strong>The</strong> pole shift theory is a hypothesis that the axis of rotation of a planet has not always<br />
been at its present-day locations or that the axis will not persist there; in other words, that its<br />
physical poles had been or will be shifted. Pole shift theory is almost always discussed in the<br />
context of <strong>Earth</strong>, but other solar system bodies may have experienced axial reorientation<br />
during their existences.<br />
239
Pole shift theories are not to be confused with plate tectonics, the well-accepted geological<br />
theory that the <strong>Earth</strong>'s surface consists of solid plates which shift over a fluid asthenosphere;<br />
nor with continental drift, the corollary to plate tectonics which maintains that locations of the<br />
continents have moved slowly over the face of the earth, resulting in the gradual emerging<br />
<strong>and</strong> breakup of continents <strong>and</strong> oceans over hundreds of millions of years.<br />
Pole shift theories are also not to be confused with Geomagnetic reversal, the periodic<br />
reversal of the earth's magnetic field (effectively switching the north <strong>and</strong> south magnetic<br />
poles). Geomagnetic reversal has more acceptance in the scientific community than pole<br />
shift theories."<br />

118 " This operation is managed by the secret police..."<br />
"Secret police (sometimes political police) are a police organization which operates in<br />
secrecy to maintain national security against internal threats to the state. Secret police<br />
forces are typically associated with totalitarian regimes, as they are often used to<br />
maintain the political power of the state rather than uphold the rule of law. Secret police are<br />
law enforcement organizations officially endowed with authority superior to civil police forces,<br />
operating outside the normal boundaries of the law, <strong>and</strong> they are often accountable only<br />
to the executive branch of the government. <strong>The</strong>y operate entirely or partially in secrecy;<br />
i.e., most or all of their operations are obscure <strong>and</strong> hidden from the general public <strong>and</strong> from<br />
all government officials, except for the topmost executive officials. Secret police<br />
organizations have often been used as an instrument of political repression. States<br />
where the secret police wield significant power are sometimes referred to as police states.<br />
Secret police differ from the domestic security agencies in modern liberal democracies,<br />
because domestic security agencies are generally subject to government regulation,<br />
reporting requirements, <strong>and</strong> other accountability measures. Despite such oversight, there<br />
still exists the possibility of domestic-security agencies acting unlawfully <strong>and</strong> taking on some<br />
characteristics of secret police.<br />
Secret police not only have the traditional police authority to arrest <strong>and</strong> detain, but in some<br />
cases they are given unsupervised control of the length of detention, assigned to implement<br />
punishments independent of the public judiciary, <strong>and</strong> allowed to administer those<br />
punishments without external review. <strong>The</strong> tactics of investigation <strong>and</strong> intimidation used by<br />
secret police enable them to accrue so much power that they usually operate with little or no<br />
practical restraint. Secret-police organizations employ internal spies <strong>and</strong> civilian<br />
informants to find protest leaders or dissidents, <strong>and</strong> they may also employ agents<br />
provocateurs to incite political opponents to perform illegal acts against the government,<br />
whereupon such opponents may be arrested. Secret police may open mail, tap telephone<br />
lines, use various techniques to trick, blackmail, or coerce relatives or friends of a<br />
suspect into providing information. <strong>The</strong> secret police are renowned for raiding homes<br />
between midnight <strong>and</strong> dawn, to apprehend people suspected of dissent.<br />
People apprehended by the secret police are often arbitrarily arrested <strong>and</strong> detained<br />
without due process. While in detention, arrestees may be tortured or subjected to<br />
inhumane treatment. Suspects may not receive a public trial, <strong>and</strong> instead may be convicted<br />
in a kangaroo court-style show trial, or by a secret tribunal.<br />
Secret police have been used by many types of governments. Secret police forces in<br />
dictatorships <strong>and</strong> totalitarian states usually use violence <strong>and</strong> acts of terror to<br />
240
suppress political opposition <strong>and</strong> dissent, <strong>and</strong> may use death squads to carry out<br />
assassinations <strong>and</strong> "disappearances". Although secret police normally do not exist in<br />
democratic states there are different varieties of democracy <strong>and</strong>, in times of emergency or<br />
war, a democracy may lawfully grant its policing <strong>and</strong> security services additional or sweeping<br />
powers, which may be seen or construed as a secret police."<br />

119 "...using false provocation operations to disguise their activities..."<br />
"False flag operations are covert operations conducted by governments,<br />
corporations, or other organizations, which are designed to appear as if they are<br />

false colors; that is, flying the flag of a country other than one's own. False flag operations<br />
are not limited to war <strong>and</strong> counter-insurgency operations, <strong>and</strong> have been used in peacetime;<br />
for example, during Italy's strategy of tension.<br />
During the Italian strategy of tension in which several bombings in the 1970s, attributed to<br />
far-left organizations, were in fact carried out by far-right organizations cooperating with the<br />
Italian secret services (see Operation Gladio, 1969 Piazza Fontana bombing, 1972 Peteano<br />
attack by Vincenzo Vinciguerra, 1973 assassination attempt of former Interior Minister<br />
Mariano Rumor, 1980 Bologna massacre, etc. <strong>and</strong> various investigations, for example by<br />
Guido Salvini). In France, the Masada Action <strong>and</strong> Defense Movement, supposedly a Zionist<br />
group, was really a neo-fascist terrorist group which hoped to increase tension between<br />
Arabs <strong>and</strong> Jews in France.<br />
False flag tactics were also employed during the Algerian civil war, starting in the mid-1994.<br />
Death squads composed of DRS(Département du Renseignement et de la Sécurité) security<br />
forces disguised themselves as Islamist terrorists <strong>and</strong> committed false flag terror attacks.<br />
Such groups included the OJAL (Organisation of Young Free Algerians) or the OSSRA<br />
(Secret Organisation for the safeguard of the Algerian Republic) According to Roger Faligot<br />
<strong>and</strong> Pascal Kropp (1999), the OJAL reminded of "the Organization of the French Algerian<br />
Resistance (ORAF), a group of counter-terrorists created in December 1956 by the DST<br />
(Direction de la Surveillance du Territoire / Territorial Surveillance Directorate) whose<br />
mission was to carry out terrorist attacks with the aim of quashing any hopes of political<br />
compromise."<br />
On the night of Feb. 27, 1933 the Reichstag building was set on fire. At the urging of<br />
Hitler, Hindenburg responded the next day by issuing an emergency decree “for the<br />
Protection of the people <strong>and</strong> the State,” which stated: “Restrictions on personal<br />
liberty, on the right of free expression of opinion, including freedom of the press; on<br />
the rights of assembly <strong>and</strong> association; <strong>and</strong> violations of the privacy of postal,<br />
telegraphic <strong>and</strong> telephonic communications <strong>and</strong> warrants for house searches, orders<br />
for confiscations as well as restrictions on property, are also permissible beyond the<br />
legal limits otherwise prescribed.” After 74 years, the question of who actually started the<br />
Reichstag fire is still unknown <strong>and</strong> occasionally debated.<br />
<strong>The</strong>re are various 9/11 conspiracy theories (<strong>and</strong> a very large body of hard evidence -<br />
Editor) which say the September 11, 2001 attacks on the US were a false flag<br />
operation."<br />

120 "... mind-control methods developed by government psychiatrists..."<br />
"William Sargant was a consultant to the British Secret Intelligence Service (MI5/MI6). In<br />
1953 he associated with Frank Olson, Deputy Acting Head of Special Operations for the<br />
CIA, investigating the use of mind-bending drugs at the Biological Warfare Centre at Porton<br />
Down.<br />
In 1944 he collaborated with Slater in writing An Introduction to Physical Methods of<br />
Treatment in Psychiatry, a textbook on biological psychiatry that included lobotomy<br />
<strong>and</strong> shock therapy <strong>and</strong> remained in print for three decades.<br />
William Sargant was a pioneer in methods of placing false memories into patients. He<br />
attested at the 1977 U.S. Senate hearing, "that the therapist should deliberately distort<br />
the facts of the patient's life-experience to achieve heightened emotional response<br />
<strong>and</strong> abreaction. In the drunken state of narcoanalysis patients are prone to accept the<br />
therapist's false constructions."<br />
In 1957 William Sargant published one of the first books on the psychology of brainwashing,<br />
Battle for the Mind. William Sargant connected Pavlov’s findings to the ways people learned<br />
<strong>and</strong> internalized belief systems. Conditioned behavior patterns could be changed by<br />
stimulated stresses beyond a dog’s capacity for response, in essence causing a breakdown.<br />
This could also be caused by intense signals, longer than normal waiting periods, rotating<br />
positive <strong>and</strong> negative signals <strong>and</strong> changing a dog’s physical condition, as through illness.<br />
Depending on the dog’s initial personality, this could possibly cause a new belief system to<br />
be held tenaciously. Sargant also connected Pavlov’s findings to the mechanisms of brainwashing<br />
in religion <strong>and</strong> politics.<br />
Sargant <strong>and</strong> Dr Ewen Cameron of Project MKULTRA notoriety, were friends <strong>and</strong><br />
colleagues who shared <strong>and</strong> exchanged views <strong>and</strong> information on brainwashing <strong>and</strong> depatterning<br />
techniques <strong>and</strong> their mutual researches in this area. Both men had extensive CIA<br />
<strong>and</strong> British Secret Intelligence Service connections.<br />
<strong>The</strong> aim of Cameron, Sargant <strong>and</strong> the CIA’s researches was to find a way to obliterate<br />
the memories of an allied spy ('de-patterning') <strong>and</strong> implant false memories at a deep<br />
level so that if that spy was captured in his adoptive country, he would be incapable under<br />
duress or even torture of revealing his true American/British allegiance. He would only be<br />
able to reveal the falsely implanted memories that supported his assumed persona.<br />
This concept became termed '<strong>The</strong> Manchurian C<strong>and</strong>idate' after the novel. <strong>The</strong> extensive<br />
use of 'heroic' doses of Electron Convulsive Shock Treatment combined with Deep<br />
Sleep Treatment (narcosis), anti-depressants, tape-loops, insulin coma therapy, <strong>and</strong> other<br />
drugs in this context, was designed to induce catastrophic memory loss which would<br />
then supposedly be replaced with false memories <strong>and</strong> ideas (via tape loops, hypnosis,<br />
LSD or conversations while the person was drugged).<br />
In addition to LSD, Cameron also experimented with various paralytic drugs, as well<br />
as electroconvulsive therapy at 30 to 40 times the normal power. His "driving"<br />
experiments consisted of putting subjects into drug-induced coma for months on end<br />
(up to three in one case) while playing tape loops of noise or simple repetitive statements.<br />
His experiments were typically carried out on patients who had entered the institute for minor<br />
problems such as anxiety disorders <strong>and</strong> post-partum depression, many of whom suffered<br />
permanently from his actions."<br />

121 ..."<strong>Earth</strong> is a "ghetto" planet..."<br />
"Ghetto" is also used figuratively to indicate geographic areas with a concentration of any<br />
type of person.<br />
Ghetto is formed in three ways:<br />
• As ports of entry for racial minorities, <strong>and</strong> immigrant racial minorities.<br />
• When the majority uses compulsion (typically violence, hostility, or legal barriers) to<br />
force minorities into particular areas.<br />
• When the majority is willing <strong>and</strong> able to pay more than the minority to live with its<br />
own kind.<br />
During World War II ghettos in occupied Europe 1939-1944 were established by the Nazis to<br />
confine Jews <strong>and</strong> sometimes Gypsies into tightly packed areas of the cities of Eastern<br />
Europe turning them into de-facto concentration camps <strong>and</strong> death camps in the<br />
Holocaust."<br />
-- Reference: Wikipedia.org<br />
122 "... Holocaust..."<br />
"<strong>The</strong> Holocaust (from the Greek λόκαυστον (holókauston): holos, "completely" <strong>and</strong><br />
kaustos, "burnt"), is the term generally used to describe the killing of approximately six<br />
million European Jews during World War II, as part of a program of deliberate extermination<br />
planned <strong>and</strong> executed by the National Socialist (Nazi) regime in Germany led by Adolf Hitler.<br />
Other groups were persecuted <strong>and</strong> killed by the regime, including the Roma; Soviets,<br />
particularly prisoners of war; ethnic Poles; other Slavic people; the disabled; gay<br />
men; <strong>and</strong> political <strong>and</strong> religious dissidents.<br />
<strong>The</strong> persecution <strong>and</strong> genocide were accomplished in stages. Legislation to remove the<br />
Jews from civil society was enacted years before the outbreak of World War II.<br />
Concentration camps were established in which inmates were used as slave labour until<br />
they died of exhaustion or disease. Where the Third Reich conquered new territory in<br />
eastern Europe, specialized units called Einsatzgruppen murdered Jews <strong>and</strong> political<br />
opponents in mass shootings. Jews <strong>and</strong> Roma were crammed into ghettos before being<br />
transported hundreds of miles by freight train to extermination camps where, if they survived<br />
the journey, the majority of them were killed in gas chambers. Every arm of Germany's<br />
bureaucracy was involved in the logistics of the mass murder, turning the country into what<br />
one Holocaust scholar has called "a genocidal state."<br />

convicted a number of psychiatrists who held key positions in Nazi regimes."<br />

in Nazi Germany <strong>and</strong> the United States.<br />
<strong>The</strong> tie between Hitler <strong>and</strong> the eugenic psychiatrists was so close that much of Mein<br />
Kampf is literally indistinguishable in language <strong>and</strong> in tone from the major<br />
international journals <strong>and</strong> psychiatric textbooks of the time. To quote from a few of<br />
many such passages in Mein Kampf:<br />
"To dem<strong>and</strong> that defective people be prevented from propagating equally defective<br />
offspring is a dem<strong>and</strong> for the clearest reason <strong>and</strong>, if systematically executed,<br />
represents the most humane act of mankind ..."<br />
"Those who are physically <strong>and</strong> mentally unhealthy <strong>and</strong> unworthy must not<br />
perpetuate their ;suffering in the bodies of their children ..."<br />
"A prevention of the faculty <strong>and</strong> opportunity to procreate on the part of the physically<br />
degenerate <strong>and</strong> the mentally sick ... would not only free humanity from an<br />
immeasurable misfortune but would lead to a recovery which today seems scarcely<br />
conceivable."<br />
Hitler received support from psychiatrists <strong>and</strong> social scientists around the world after<br />
he took power. Many articles in the world's leading medical journals monitored <strong>and</strong> heaped<br />
praise on Hitler's eugenic legislation <strong>and</strong> policies.<br />
Records uncovered by Abrams at the hospital confirm that the extermination had begun as<br />
a part of a national psychiatric program before Hitler took on the systematic murder of<br />
the Jews. Hundreds of patients had been shipped off to psychiatric extermination centers<br />
prior to the end of 1941, when the national program was largely ab<strong>and</strong>oned <strong>and</strong> local state<br />
mental hospitals took over "the action" on their own.<br />
<strong>The</strong> psychiatric extermination program was not a hidden, secret shame of psychiatry - at<br />
least, not at the start. It was organized by leading professors of psychiatry <strong>and</strong> directors<br />
of mental hospitals through a series of national meetings <strong>and</strong> workshops. So-called<br />
euthanasia forms were circulated to individual hospitals, <strong>and</strong> final approval of each death<br />
was then given in Berlin by a committee of the nation's outst<strong>and</strong>ing psychiatrists. By<br />
January 1940 patients were being shipped to six special extermination centers staffed by<br />
psychiatrists.<br />
In late 1941, public outrage <strong>and</strong> lack of enthusiasm from Hitler pushed the program<br />
underground, but between 100,000 <strong>and</strong> 200,000 German mental patients had been<br />
killed. From then on, individual institutions, such as that at Kaufbeuren, continued to act on<br />
their own, even admitting new patients for the purpose of murdering them. At the end of the<br />
war, many large institutions were entirely empty, <strong>and</strong> estimates from various war-crime<br />
tribunals, including Nuremberg, estimate the number of dead to be between 250,000 <strong>and</strong><br />
300,000, mostly inmates of psychiatric hospitals <strong>and</strong> homes for the retarded...<br />
Psychiatrist Frederic Wertham, by no means a radical critic of his profession, deserves<br />
the credit for being the first to describe the role of psychiatry in Nazi Germany: ...<br />
244
"<strong>The</strong> tragedy is that the PSYCHIATRISTS did not have to have an order. <strong>The</strong>y acted on<br />
their own. <strong>The</strong>y were not carrying out a death sentence pronounced by somebody<br />
else. <strong>The</strong>y were the legislators who laid down the rules for deciding who was to die;<br />
they were the administrators who worked out the procedures, provided the patients<br />
<strong>and</strong> the places, <strong>and</strong> decided the methods of killing; they pronounced a sentence of<br />
life or death in each individual case; they were the executioners who carried the<br />
sentences out or -- without being coerced to do so -- surrendered their patients to be<br />
killed in other institutions; they supervised <strong>and</strong> often watched the slow deaths..."<br />
By November 1, 1941, the first extermination camps were being built: first Belzec, then<br />
Sobibor, Treblinka, Chełmno <strong>and</strong> Majdanek, <strong>and</strong> finally Auschwitz-Birkenau.<br />
At first, vague plans were made in Nazi Germany to deport all European Jews to<br />
Madagascar. Adolf Eichmann, in particular, supported this option before the Wannsee<br />
Conference of 1942, where he was made privy to the exact details of the "Final Solution".<br />
SS chief Heinrich Himmler stated:<br />
"However cruel <strong>and</strong> tragic each individual case may be, this method is still the mildest <strong>and</strong><br />
best, if one rejects the Bolshevik method of physical extermination of a people out of inner<br />
conviction as un-German <strong>and</strong> impossible."<br />
<strong>The</strong> original plan was to use the Royal Navy after Britain's defeat to exile all of Europe's<br />
Jews to Madagascar. However, since the British were not defeated as anticipated by the<br />
Nazis, the Madagascar Plan had to be ab<strong>and</strong>oned.<br />
<strong>The</strong> extermination process in Belzec, Sobibor <strong>and</strong> Treblinka was similar to the method used<br />
in the six extermination camps in Germany <strong>and</strong> Austria, but hugely scaled up for killing<br />
whole transports of people at a time.<br />
Victims would h<strong>and</strong> over their valuables, which became property of the German<br />
Reichsbank. <strong>The</strong>y then undressed, <strong>and</strong> their clothes were searched for jewelry <strong>and</strong><br />
other valuables. Victims were then marched into the gas chamber <strong>and</strong> packed tightly<br />
to minimize the available fresh air. An engine created carbon monoxide gas which<br />
was then discharged through gas pipes, killing the occupants. <strong>The</strong>ir corpses were<br />
cremated after any gold dental fillings were removed. <strong>The</strong> mass murder was carefully<br />
tracked <strong>and</strong> documented.<br />
For example, the intercepted Höfle Telegram sent by SS-Sturmbannführer Hermann Höfle<br />
on January 11, 1943 to SS-Obersturmbannführer Adolf Eichmann in Berlin listed<br />
1,274,166 total arrivals to the four camps of Aktion Reinhard through the end of 1942,<br />
as well as the total arrivals by camp for the last two weeks of 1942.<br />
<strong>The</strong> structure of all camps was nearly identical. From the reception area with ramp <strong>and</strong><br />
undressing barracks, the Jews entered a narrow, camouflaged path (called sluice or tube) to<br />
the extermination area with gas chambers, pits <strong>and</strong> cremation grids. <strong>The</strong> SS <strong>and</strong> Trawnikis<br />
stayed in a separate area. Barbed wire fences, partially camouflaged with pine branches,<br />
surrounded the camp <strong>and</strong> separated the different parts. Unlike Auschwitz, no electric fences<br />
were used. Wooden watchtowers guarded the camp.<br />
245
Approximately 2 million Jews lost their lives in Belzec, Sobibor, Treblinka <strong>and</strong> Majdanek in<br />
the course of Operation Reinhard. Approximately 178,045,960 German Reichsmark worth of<br />
Jewish property (today's value: around 700,000,000 $US or 550,000,000 Euros) was stolen.<br />
This money went not only to German authorities, but also to single individuals (SS <strong>and</strong> police<br />
men, camp guards, non-Jewish inhabitants of towns <strong>and</strong> villages with ghettos or adjacent<br />
camps)."<br />

125 "... radioactivity..."<br />
"Nuclear weapons emit large amounts of electromagnetic radiation as visible, infrared, <strong>and</strong><br />
ultraviolet light. <strong>The</strong> chief hazards are burns <strong>and</strong> eye injuries. On clear days, these injuries<br />
can occur well beyond blast ranges. <strong>The</strong> light is so powerful that it can start fires that spread<br />
rapidly in the debris left by a blast. <strong>The</strong> range of thermal effects increases markedly with<br />
weapon yield. <strong>The</strong>rmal radiation accounts for between 35-45% of the energy released in the<br />
explosion, depending on the yield of the device.<br />
<strong>The</strong> first atomic bomb actually used in war time was dropped on Hiroshima on August 6th,<br />
1945 killing between 130,000 <strong>and</strong> 150,000 people by the end of that year. Those who<br />
survived the bombing are rapidly aging now after struggling for many years.<br />
In Hiroshima, a tremendous fire storm developed within 20 minutes after detonation <strong>and</strong><br />
destroyed many more buildings <strong>and</strong> homes. A fire storm has gale force winds blowing in<br />
towards the center of the fire from all points of the compass.<br />
Mr. Hiroshi Sawachika was 28 years old when the bomb was dropped. He was an army<br />
doctor stationed at the army headquarters in Ujina. When he was exposed, he was inside<br />
the building at the headquarters, 4.1 km from the hypocenter. Being rather far from the<br />
hypocenter, he was not seriously injured. Afterwards, he was very busy getting medical<br />
treatment to the survivors.<br />
<strong>INTERVIEW</strong>ER: How many patients did you treat on August 6?<br />
ANSWER: Well, at least 2 or 3 thous<strong>and</strong> on that very day if you include those patients whom<br />
I gave directions to. I felt that as if once that day started, it never ended. I had to keep on<br />
<strong>and</strong> on treating the patients forever. It was the longest day of my life. Later on, when I had<br />
time to reflect on that day, I came to realize that we, doctors learned a lot through the<br />
experience, through the suffering of all those people. It's true that the lack of medical<br />
knowledge, medical facilities, integrated organization <strong>and</strong> so on prevented us from giving<br />
sufficient medical treatment. Still there was a lot for us, medical doctors to learn on that day.<br />
I learned that the nuclear weapons which gnaw the minds <strong>and</strong> bodies of human beings<br />
should never be used. Even the slightest idea using nuclear arms should be completely<br />
exterminated the minds of human beings. Otherwise, we will repeat the same tragedy. And<br />
we will never stop being ashamed of ourselves."<br />

126 "...Atlanta..."<br />
"Atlantis was a continent. Its capital was called by the same name or by that of Poseidonis,<br />
<strong>and</strong> was located on an isl<strong>and</strong> next to its coast. After this continent sunk under the seas, only<br />
the peaks of its loftiest mountains remained above the water, forming what the ancients later<br />
knew as the Isl<strong>and</strong>s of the Blest, <strong>and</strong> which we know as those of Indonesia.<br />
Atlantis created a worldwide empire, <strong>and</strong> had colonies the world over. <strong>The</strong>se colonies, as<br />
usual, attempted to duplicate the motherl<strong>and</strong>, as colonists are wont to do. Atlantis <strong>and</strong><br />
Lemuria have been grossly distorted <strong>and</strong> misplaced by all sorts of investigators in what<br />
concerns both their epochs <strong>and</strong> their sizes <strong>and</strong> locations. Indeed, Atlantis <strong>and</strong> Lemuria<br />
coexisted side by side, at more or less the same date.<br />
More exactly, Lemuria was the archetypal Atlantis, the same as Eden or Paradise, the site of<br />
origin of both Mankind <strong>and</strong> Civilization. From there, the Lemurian Atlanteans colonized the<br />
nearby region of India, which became its "twin" <strong>and</strong> partner. In mythical terms, we can say<br />
that Lemuria-Indonesia was the Mother, <strong>and</strong> that Atlantis-India was the Father of all the<br />
other civilizations.<br />
Our Atlantean heritage also encompasses the arts <strong>and</strong> techniques such as Agriculture <strong>and</strong><br />
Animal Domestication, the greatest inventions ever. Without the domesticated plants <strong>and</strong><br />
animals — most or all of which originated in Atlantis, <strong>and</strong> often embody an advanced use of<br />
genetic engineering — Civilization could never have developed at all. Besides these, a<br />
series of inventions of mysterious origins, who came to us from the dawn of time, are also<br />
owed to Atlantis <strong>and</strong> Lemuria: metallurgy, stone masonry <strong>and</strong> sculpture, paper, the alphabet,<br />
medicinal drugs, gunpowder, weaving, <strong>and</strong> so on."<br />

127 "...Lemur..."<br />
"Lemuria is the name of a hypothetical "lost l<strong>and</strong>" variously located in the Indian <strong>and</strong> Pacific<br />
Oceans. Its 19th century origins lie in attempts to account for discontinuities in<br />
biogeography. Though Lemuria has passed out of the realm of conventional science, it has<br />
been adopted by occult writers, as well as some Tamil writers of India. Accounts of Lemuria<br />
differ according to the requirements of their contexts, but all share a common belief that a<br />
continent existed in ancient times <strong>and</strong> sank beneath the ocean as a result of geological<br />
change, often cataclysmic.<br />
Lemuria entered the lexicon of the Occult through the works of Madame Blavatsky, who<br />
claimed in the 1880s to have been shown an ancient, pre-Atlantean Book of Dzyan by the<br />
Mahatmas. Kumari K<strong>and</strong>am is a sunken kingdom sometimes compared with Lemuria.<br />
According to these modernist interpretations of motifs in classical Tamil literature — the<br />
epics Cilappatikaram <strong>and</strong> Manimekalai that describe the submerged city of Puhar — the<br />
Dravidians originally came from l<strong>and</strong> south of the present day coast of South India that<br />
became submerged by successive floods. <strong>The</strong>re are various claims from Tamil authors that<br />
there was a large l<strong>and</strong> mass connecting Australia <strong>and</strong> the present day Tamil Nadu coast.<br />
It is interesting to note that Madame Blavatsky described the Lemurians (her third root race)<br />
as being colored black <strong>and</strong> described the Negroid race, the Dravidians <strong>and</strong> the Australoids,<br />
Papuans <strong>and</strong> Melanesians as being descended from them.<br />
247
prior to the acceptance of continental drift, biologists frequently postulated submerged l<strong>and</strong><br />
masses in order to account for populations of l<strong>and</strong>-based species now separated by barriers<br />
of water. Similarly, geologists tried to account for striking resemblances of rock formations<br />
on different continents. <strong>The</strong> first systematic attempt was made by Melchior Neumayr in his<br />
book Erdgeschichte in 1887. Many hypothetical submerged l<strong>and</strong> bridges <strong>and</strong> continents<br />
were proposed during the 19th century, in order to account for the present distribution of<br />
species.<br />
As Lemuria gained some acceptance within the scientific community, it began to appear in<br />
the works of other scholars. Ernst Haeckel, a German Darwinian taxonomist, proposed<br />
Lemuria as an explanation for the absence of "missing link" fossil records. According to<br />
another source, Haeckel put forward this thesis prior to Sclater (but without using the name<br />
'Lemuria'). Locating the origins of the human species on this lost continent, he claimed the<br />
fossil record could not be found because it had sunk beneath the sea.<br />
Other scientists hypothesized that Lemuria had extended across parts of the Pacific oceans,<br />
explaining distributions of species across Asia <strong>and</strong> the Americas.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Lemuria theory disappeared completely from conventional scientific consideration after<br />
the theories of plate tectonics <strong>and</strong> continental drift were accepted by the larger scientific<br />
community. According to the theory of plate tectonics (which is nowadays the only accepted<br />
paradigm in geology), Madagascar <strong>and</strong> India were indeed once part of the same l<strong>and</strong>mass<br />
(thus accounting for geological resemblances), but plate movement caused India to break<br />
away millions of years ago, <strong>and</strong> move to its present location. <strong>The</strong> original l<strong>and</strong>mass broke<br />
apart - it did not sink beneath the sea level."<br />

128 ..."Lake Toba in Sumatra"...<br />
<strong>The</strong> Toba eruption (the Toba event) occurred at what is now Lake Toba about 67,500 to<br />
75,500 years ago. It had an estimated Volcanic Explosivity Index of 8 (described as "megacolossal"),<br />
making it possibly the largest explosive volcanic eruption within the last twentyfive<br />
million years. <strong>The</strong> total amount of erupted material was about 2800 cubic km (670 cubic<br />
miles) — around 2,000 km³ of ignimbrite that flowed over the ground <strong>and</strong> around 800 km³<br />
that fell as ash, with the wind blowing most of it to the west.<br />
By contrast, the 1980 eruption of Mount St. Helens ejected around 1.2 cubic km of material,<br />
whilst the largest volcanic eruption in historic times, at Mount Tambora in 1815, emitted the<br />
equivalent of around 100 cubic kilometers of dense rock <strong>and</strong> created the "Year Without a<br />
Summer" as far away as North America."<br />
<strong>The</strong> Toba eruption was the latest of a series of at least three calderra-forming eruptions<br />
which have occurred at the volcano. Earlier calderas were formed around 700,000 <strong>and</strong><br />
840,000 years ago.<br />
To give an idea of its magnitude, consider that although the eruption took place in Indonesia,<br />
it deposited an ash layer approximately 15 cm (6 in) thick over the entire Indian<br />
subcontinent; at one site in central India, the Toba ash layer today is up to 6 m (20 feet)<br />
thick <strong>and</strong> parts of Malaysia were covered with 9 m of ashfall. In addition it has been<br />
calculated that 10 10 metric tons of sulphuric acid was ejected into the atmosphere by<br />
the event, causing acid rain fallout."<br />

the volcano as a whole. It has erupted repeatedly, massively, <strong>and</strong> with disastrous<br />
consequences throughout recorded history. <strong>The</strong> best known eruption culminated in a series<br />
of massive explosions on August 26-27 1883, which was among the most violent volcanic<br />
events in modern times. With a Volcanic Explosivity Index of 6, it was equivalent to 200<br />
megatonnes of TNT — about 13,000 times the yield of the Little Boy bomb (13 to 16 KT),<br />
which devastated Hiroshima, Japan.<br />
<strong>The</strong> 1883 eruption ejected more than 25 cubic kilometres of rock, ash, <strong>and</strong> pumice, <strong>and</strong><br />
generated the loudest sound historically reported: the cataclysmic explosion was distinctly<br />
heard as far away as Perth in Australia approx. 1,930 miles (3,110 km), <strong>and</strong> the isl<strong>and</strong> of<br />
Rodrigues near Mauritius approx. 3,000 miles (5,000 km). Near Krakatoa, according to<br />
official records, 165 villages <strong>and</strong> towns were destroyed <strong>and</strong> 132 seriously damaged, at least<br />
36,417 (official toll) people died, <strong>and</strong> many thous<strong>and</strong>s were injured by the eruption, mostly<br />
from the tsunamis which followed the explosion.<br />

"Nuclear winter is a hypothetical global climate condition that is predicted to be a possible<br />
outcome of a large-scale nuclear war. It is thought that severely cold weather can be caused<br />
by detonating large numbers of nuclear weapons, especially over flammable targets such as<br />
cities, where large amounts of smoke <strong>and</strong> soot would be injected into the <strong>Earth</strong>'s<br />
stratosphere. <strong>The</strong> term has also been applied to one of the after-effects of an<br />
supervolcano eruption.<br />
A global average surface cooling of –7°C to –8°C persists for years, <strong>and</strong> after a decade the<br />
cooling is still –4°C (Fig. 2). Considering that the global average cooling at the depth of the<br />
last ice age 18,000 yr ago was about –5°C, this would be a climate change unprecedented in<br />
speed <strong>and</strong> amplitude in the history of the human race. <strong>The</strong> temperature changes are largest<br />

132 "...<strong>The</strong> global cataclysm that destroyed the dinosaurs..."<br />
"In the past 600 million years there have been five major mass extinctions that on<br />
average extinguished half of all species. <strong>The</strong> largest mass extinction to have affected life<br />
on <strong>Earth</strong> was in the Permian-Triassic, which ended the Permian period 250 million years ago<br />
<strong>and</strong> killed off 90% of all species. <strong>The</strong> last such mass extinction led to the demise of the<br />
dinosaurs <strong>and</strong> has been found to have coincided with a large asteroid impact; this is the<br />
Cretaceous–Tertiary extinction event. <strong>The</strong>re is no solid evidence of impacts leading to the<br />
four other major mass extinctions, though a recent report from Ohio State scientists stated<br />
that they have located a 483-km diameter impact crater beneath the East Antarctic Ice Sheet<br />
which may date back about 250 million years, based on gravity measurements, which might<br />
associate it with the Permian-Triassic extinction event.<br />
In 1980, physicist Luis Alvarez, his son, geologist Walter Alvarez, <strong>and</strong> nuclear chemists<br />
Frank Asaro <strong>and</strong> Helen V. Michael from the University of California, Berkeley discovered<br />
unusually high concentrations of iridium, an element that is rare in the <strong>Earth</strong>'s crust but<br />
relatively abundant in many meteorites. From the amount <strong>and</strong> distribution of iridium present<br />
in the 65 million year old "iridium layer", the Alvarez team later estimated that an asteroid of<br />
10–14 kilometers must have collided with the earth. This iridium layer at the K–T boundary<br />
has been found worldwide at 100 different sites. Multidirectionally shocked quartz<br />
(coesite), which is only known to form as the result of large impacts or atomic bomb<br />
explosions, has also been found in the same layer at more than 30 sites. Soot <strong>and</strong> ash at<br />
levels tens of thous<strong>and</strong>s times normal levels were found with the above."<br />
-- Reference: Wikipedia.org<br />
"<strong>The</strong> geologic record of terminal Cretaceous environmental events indicates that iridium <strong>and</strong><br />
other associated elements were not deposited instantaneously but during a time interval<br />
spanning some 10,000 to 100,000 years. <strong>The</strong> available geologic evidence favors a mantle<br />
rather than meteoritic origin for these elements. <strong>The</strong>se results are in accord with the scenario<br />
of a series of intense eruptive volcanic events occurring during a relatively short geologic<br />
time interval <strong>and</strong> not with the scenario of a single large asteroid impact event."<br />

radical idea that it was a series of monumental volcanic eruptions that wiped out the<br />
dinosaurs, not a meteor impact in the Gulf of Mexico. <strong>The</strong> discovery confirms two important<br />
things, said Keller: First, that the most massive Deccan eruption <strong>and</strong> the K-T mass extinction<br />
happened at the same time. Second, that the later, final eruption is timed right to have<br />
slowed the recovery of many living things. This latter matter of the slow recovery has long<br />

up the idea that no single meteor, volcanic eruption or other lone gunman is ever to blame,<br />

million years ago.<br />
Instead, the worst die-offs happen when some sort of interminable, multi-generational<br />
pressure on life is combined with a few powerful blows. It's what is now being called the<br />
press/pulse theory of mass extinctions.<br />
<strong>The</strong> theory "is essentially a more eloquent way of saying what I <strong>and</strong> many other<br />
paleontologists have been saying for many years," said Gerta Keller of Princeton University.<br />
"Namely that the impact-kill hypothesis is all wrong. Impacts alone could not have been the<br />
killing mechanism for the K-T or any of the other major mass extinctions."<br />

137 ..."plunder their possessions."<br />
"Looting, sacking, plundering, despoiling, or pillaging is the indiscriminate taking of<br />
goods by force as part of a military or political victory, or during a catastrophe or riot, such as<br />
during war, natural disaster, or rioting. <strong>The</strong> term is also used in a broader (some would argue<br />
metaphorical) sense, to describe egregious instances of theft <strong>and</strong> embezzlement, such as<br />
the "plundering" of private or public assets by corrupt or overly greedy corporate executives<br />
or government authorities. <strong>The</strong> proceeds of all these activities can be described as loot,<br />
plunder, or pillage.<br />
Looting originally referred primarily to the plundering of villages <strong>and</strong> cities not only by<br />
victorious troops during warfare, but also by civilian members of the community. For<br />
example, see War <strong>and</strong> Peace, which describes widespread looting by Moscow's citizens<br />
before Napoleon's troops enter the town, <strong>and</strong> looting by French troops elsewhere; also note<br />
the looting of art treasures by the Nazis during WWII."<br />

139 "...the shift of the poles of the planet...".<br />
"Charles Hapgood first came to public attention in the mid-1950s with his theory of earth<br />
crust displacement, a radical geological idea which attracted the curiosity <strong>and</strong> support of<br />
252
Albert Einstein. <strong>The</strong> Einstein-Hapgood correspondence is a forgotten page in the history of<br />
science. Rose <strong>and</strong> I obtained these letters (ten from Einstein to Hapgood) from Albert<br />
Einstein's Archives in the Fall of 1995. <strong>The</strong>y show, for the first time, just how extensively<br />
Albert Einstein was involved in assisting Charles Hapgood in the development of the theory.<br />
This correspondence is detailed in <strong>The</strong> Atlantis Blueprint. Here is a brief summary:<br />
In his second reply (24 November 1952) to Hapgood, Einstein wrote that the idea of earth<br />
crust displacement should not be ruled out "apriori" just because it didn't fit with what we<br />
wanted to believe about the earth's past. What was needed, Einstein claimed, was solid<br />
"geological <strong>and</strong> paleontological facts."<br />
For six months, Hapgood gathered geological evidence to support the idea of an earth crust<br />
displacement. On the 3rd of May 1953 he forwarded thirty-eight pages of this evidence to<br />
Einstein. Central to his argument was Hapgood's evidence that Lesser Antarctica was icefree<br />
at the same time that North America lay smothered in ice. Einstein responded (8 May<br />
1953):<br />
"I find your arguments very impressive <strong>and</strong> have the impression that your hypothesis is<br />
correct. One can hardly doubt that significant shifts of the crust have taken place repeatedly<br />
<strong>and</strong> within a short time."<br />
He urged Hapgood to follow up on evidence of "earth fractures". A month later<br />
(11 June 1953) Hapgood sent Einstein forty-two pages of evidence on earth fractures <strong>and</strong><br />
the evolution of the ice sheets.<br />
Einstein wrote (17 December 1953) Hapgood urging him to address the "centrifugal<br />
momentum" problem. Hapgood responded with four pages on this problem <strong>and</strong> thirty-seven<br />
pages of "paleontological evidence" including the frozen mammoths of Arctic Siberia.<br />
Einstein was now convinced. On the 18th of May 1954, Einstein wrote a very favorable<br />
foreword for Hapgood's book <strong>EARTH</strong>'S SHIFTING CRUST: A KEY TO SOME BASIC<br />
PROBLEMS OF <strong>EARTH</strong> SCIENCE (published in 1958 by Pantheon Books, New York). <strong>The</strong><br />
Foreword begins:<br />
"I frequently receive communications from people who wish to consult me concerning their<br />
unpublished ideas. It goes without saying that these ideas are very seldom possessed of<br />
scientific validity. <strong>The</strong> very first communication, however, that I received from Mr. Hapgood<br />
electrified me. His idea is original, of great simplicity, <strong>and</strong> - if it continues to prove itself of<br />
great importance to everything that is related to the history of the earth's surface. ... I think<br />
that this rather astonishing, even fascinating, idea deserves the serious attention of anyone<br />
who concerns himself with the theory of the earth's development."<br />

141 "... Heliopolis..."<br />
"Heliopolis has been occupied since the Predynastic Period, with extensive building<br />
campaigns during the Old <strong>and</strong> Middle Kingdoms. Today, unfortunately, it is mostly<br />
destroyed, its temples <strong>and</strong> other buildings having been used for the construction of medieval<br />
Cairo; most information about it comes from textual sources.<br />
According to Diodorus Siculus Heliopolis was built by Actis, one of the sons of Helios <strong>and</strong><br />
Rhode, who named the city after his father. While all Greek cities were destroyed during the<br />
flood, the Egyptian cities including Heliopolis survived. <strong>The</strong> chief deity of Heliopolis was the<br />
god Atum, who was worshipped in the primary temple.<br />
<strong>The</strong> city was also the original source of the worship of the Ennead pantheon, although in<br />
later times, as Horus gained in prominence, worship focused on the synchrentistic solar deity<br />
Ra-harakhty (literally Ra, (who is) Horus of the Two Horizons).<br />
During the Amarna Period, Pharoah Akhenaten introduced monotheistic worship of Aten, the<br />
deified solar disc. As the capital of Egypt for a period of time, grain was stored in Heliopolis<br />
for the winter months, when many people would descend on the town to be fed, leading to it<br />
gaining the title place of bread. <strong>The</strong> Book of the Dead goes further <strong>and</strong> describes how<br />
Heliopolis was the place of multiplying bread, recounting a myth in which Horus feeds the<br />
masses there with only 7 loaves, which is the basis of the Bible New Testament parable."<br />

142 "...Nephilim..."<br />
"<strong>The</strong> Nephilim were an antediluvian race (pre-flood) race which are referred to in the Bible<br />
as giants.". -- Reference: http://www.nwcreation.net/nephilim.html<br />
"Genesis 6:4 states "<strong>The</strong> Nephilim were on the earth in those days --<strong>and</strong> also afterwards--<br />
when the sons of God went to the daughters of men <strong>and</strong> had children by them. <strong>The</strong>y were<br />
the heroes of old, men of renown." <strong>The</strong> Nephilim were a race of giants that were produced<br />
by the sexual union of the sons of God (presumably fallen angels) <strong>and</strong> the daughters of men.<br />
Translated from the Hebrew texts, "Nephilim" means "fallen ones." <strong>The</strong>y were renowned for<br />
their strength, prowess, <strong>and</strong> a great capacity for sinfulness.<br />
<strong>The</strong> origination of the Nephilim begins with a story of the fallen angels. Shemhazai, an angel<br />
of high rank, led a sect of angels in a descent to earth to instruct humans in righteousness.<br />
<strong>The</strong> tutelage went on for a few centuries, but soon the angels pined for the human females.<br />
After lusting, the fallen angels instructed the women in magic <strong>and</strong> conjuring, mated with<br />
them, <strong>and</strong> produced hybrid offspring: the Nephilim.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Nephilim were gigantic in stature. <strong>The</strong>ir strength was prodigious <strong>and</strong> their appetites<br />
immense. Upon devouring all of humankind's resources, they began to consume humans<br />
254
themselves. <strong>The</strong> Nephilim attacked <strong>and</strong> oppressed humans <strong>and</strong> were the cause of massive<br />
destruction on the earth.<br />
Two texts of central import to the story of the Nephilim, the Bible <strong>and</strong> the Dead Sea Scrolls,<br />
mention several names for the Nephilim. <strong>The</strong> diverse kinds of these giants are cited in<br />
several passages. <strong>The</strong>y are variously referred to as Emim, or "Terrors" (Gen. 14:5; Deut.<br />
2:10), Rephaim, or "Weakeners" or "Dead Ones" (2 Sam. 23:13; 1 Chron. 11:15), Gibborim,<br />
or "Giant Heroes" (Job 16:4), Zamzummim, or "Achievers" (Deut. 2:10), Anakim, or "Longnecked"<br />
(Deut. 2:10; Josh. 11:22, 14:15), <strong>and</strong> Awwim or "Devastators" <strong>and</strong> "Serpents."<br />
Other giants are mentioned in these texts as well, such as Goliath (2 Sam. 21:19), a giant<br />
with twelve fingers <strong>and</strong> twelve toes who is mentioned as one of the Rephaim (2 Sam. 21:20),<br />
<strong>and</strong> a tall Egyptian (1 Chron. 11:23). <strong>The</strong> passage of Numbers 13:26-33 recounts the<br />
Nephilim of Canaan that Joshua <strong>and</strong> the other Hebrew spies saw. Furthermore, according to<br />
Judaic lore, a certain one of the Nephilim, Arba, built a city, Kiriath Arba, which was named<br />
for its builder <strong>and</strong> is now known as Hebron.<br />
<strong>The</strong> wickedness of the Nephilim carried with it a heavy toll. Genesis 6:5 alludes to the<br />
corruption that the Nephilim had caused amongst humans <strong>and</strong> themselves: "<strong>The</strong> Lord saw<br />
how great man's wickedness on the earth had become..." <strong>The</strong>ir evil rebellion had incurred<br />
both the wrath <strong>and</strong> grief of God. God instructed the angel Gabriel to ignite a civil war among<br />
the Nephilim. He also chose Enoch, a righteous man, to inform the fallen angels of the<br />
judgment pronounced on them <strong>and</strong> their children. God did not allow the fallen angels any<br />
peace, for they could not lift their eyes to heaven <strong>and</strong> were later to be chained. <strong>The</strong> end of<br />
the Nephilim came about in the war incited by Gabriel, in which the giants eventually<br />
annihilated each other."<br />

143 "...used cutting tools of highly concentrated light waves <strong>and</strong> electronic energy..."<br />
"A laser is an electronic-optical device that emits coherent light radiation. <strong>The</strong> term "laser" is<br />
an acronym for Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation. A typical laser emits<br />
light in a narrow, low-divergence monochromatic (single-coloured, if the laser is operating in<br />
the visible spectrum), beam with a well-defined wavelength. In this way, laser light is in<br />
contrast to a light source such as the inc<strong>and</strong>escent light bulb, which emits light over a wide<br />
area <strong>and</strong> over a wide spectrum of wavelengths.<br />
<strong>The</strong> first working laser was demonstrated in May 1960 by <strong>The</strong>odore Maiman at Hughes<br />
Research Laboratories. Recently, lasers have become a multi-billion dollar industry. <strong>The</strong><br />
most widespread use of lasers is in optical storage devices such as compact disc <strong>and</strong> DVD<br />
players, in which the laser (a few millimeters in size) scans the surface of the disc. Other<br />
common applications of lasers are bar code readers, laser printers <strong>and</strong> laser pointers.<br />
In industry, lasers are used for cutting steel <strong>and</strong> other metals <strong>and</strong> for inscribing patterns<br />
(such as the letters on computer keyboards). Lasers are also commonly used in various<br />
fields in science, especially spectroscopy, typically because of their well-defined wavelength<br />
or short pulse duration in the case of pulsed lasers. Lasers are used by the military for range<br />
finding, target identification <strong>and</strong> illumination for weapons delivery. Lasers used in medicine<br />
are used for internal surgery <strong>and</strong> cosmetic applications.<br />
Laser cutting is a technology that uses a laser to cut materials, <strong>and</strong> is usually used in<br />
industrial manufacturing. Laser cutting works by directing the output of a high power laser,<br />
255
y computer, at the material to be cut. <strong>The</strong> material then either melts, burns, vaporizes<br />
away, or is blown away by a jet of gas, leaving an edge with a high quality surface finish.<br />
Industrial laser cutters are used to cut flat-sheet material as well as structural <strong>and</strong> piping<br />
materials. Some 6-axis lasers can perform cutting operations on parts that have been preformed<br />
by casting or machining."<br />

144 "... Baalbek..."<br />
"<strong>The</strong> great mystery of the ruins of Baalbek, <strong>and</strong> indeed one of the greatest mysteries of the<br />
ancient world, concerns the massive foundation stones beneath the Roman Temple of<br />
Jupiter. <strong>The</strong> courtyard of the Jupiter temple is situated upon a platform, called the Gr<strong>and</strong><br />
Terrace, which consists of a huge outer wall <strong>and</strong> a filling of massive stones. <strong>The</strong> lower<br />
courses of the outer wall are formed of huge, finely crafted <strong>and</strong> precisely positioned blocks.<br />
<strong>The</strong>y range in size from thirty to thirty three feet in length, fourteen feet in height <strong>and</strong> ten feet<br />
in depth, <strong>and</strong> weigh approximately 450 tons each. Nine of these blocks are visible on the<br />
north side of the temple, nine on the south, <strong>and</strong> six on the west (others may exist but<br />
archaeological excavations have thus far not dug beneath all the sections of the Gr<strong>and</strong><br />
Terrace). Above the six blocks on the western side are three even larger stones, called the<br />
Trilithon, whose weight exceeds 1000 tons each. <strong>The</strong>se great stones vary in size between<br />
sixty-three <strong>and</strong> sixty-five feet in length, with a height of fourteen feet six inches <strong>and</strong> a depth<br />
of twelve feet.<br />
Another even larger stone lies in a limestone quarry a quarter of a mile from the Baalbek<br />
complex. Weighing an estimated 1200 tons, it is sixty-nine feet by sixteen feet by thirteen<br />
feet ten inches, making it the single largest piece of stonework ever crafted in the world.<br />
Called the Hajar el Gouble, the Stone of the South, or the Hajar el Hibla, the Stone of the<br />
Pregnant Woman, it lays at a raised angle with the lowest part of its base still attached to the<br />
quarry rock as though it were almost ready to be cut free <strong>and</strong> transported to its presumed<br />
location next to the other stones of the Trilithon.<br />
Why these stones are such an enigma to contemporary scientists, both engineers <strong>and</strong><br />
archaeologists alike, is that their method of quarrying, transportation <strong>and</strong> precision<br />
placement is beyond the technological ability of any known ancient or modern builders.<br />
Various ‘scholars’, uncomfortable with the notion that ancient cultures might have developed<br />
knowledge superior to modern science, have decided that the massive Baalbek stones were<br />
laboriously dragged from the nearby quarries to the temple site. While carved images in the<br />
temples of Egypt <strong>and</strong> Mesopotamia do indeed give evidence of this method of block<br />
transportation - using ropes, wooden rollers <strong>and</strong> thous<strong>and</strong>s of laborers - the dragged blocks<br />
are known to have been only 1/10th the size <strong>and</strong> weight of the Baalbek stones <strong>and</strong> to have<br />
been moved along flat surfaces with wide movement paths. <strong>The</strong> route to the site of Baalbek,<br />
however, is up hill, over rough <strong>and</strong> winding terrain, <strong>and</strong> there is no evidence whatsoever of a<br />
flat hauling surface having been created in ancient times.<br />
Next there is the problem of how the mammoth blocks, once they were brought to the site,<br />
were lifted <strong>and</strong> precisely placed in position. It has been theorized that the stones were raised<br />
using a complex array of scaffolding, ramps <strong>and</strong> pulleys which was powered by large<br />
numbers of humans <strong>and</strong> animals working in unison. An historical example of this method has<br />
been suggested as the solution for the Baalbek enigma. <strong>The</strong> Renaissance architect<br />
Domenico Fontana, when erecting a 327-ton Egyptian obelisk in front of St Peter's Basilica<br />
in Rome, used 40 huge pulleys, which necessitated a combined force of 800 men <strong>and</strong> 140<br />
horses. <strong>The</strong> area where this obelisk was erected, however, was a great open space that<br />
256
could easily accommodate all the lifting apparatus <strong>and</strong> the men <strong>and</strong> horses pulling on the<br />
ropes. No such space is available in the spatial context of how the Baalbek stones were<br />
placed. Hills slope away from where lifting apparatus would need to have been placed <strong>and</strong><br />
no evidence has been found of a flat <strong>and</strong> structurally firm surface having been constructed<br />
(<strong>and</strong> then mysteriously removed after the lifting was done). Furthermore, not just one obelisk<br />
was erected but rather a series of giant stones were precisely put in place side-by-side. Due<br />
to the positioning of these stones, there is simply no conceivable place where a huge pulley<br />
apparatus could have been stationed."<br />

145 "...<strong>The</strong> Domain took over the planet Venus..."<br />
"<strong>The</strong> second-closest planet to the Sun, orbiting it every 224.7 <strong>Earth</strong> days. It is the brightest<br />
natural object in the night sky, except for the Moon, reaching an apparent magnitude of −4.6.<br />
Because Venus is an inferior planet, from <strong>Earth</strong> it never appears to venture far from the Sun:<br />
its elongation reaches a maximum of 47.8°. Venus reaches its maximum brightness shortly<br />
before sunrise or shortly after sunset, for which reason it is often called the Morning Star or<br />
the Evening Star.<br />
Classified as a terrestrial planet, it is sometimes called <strong>Earth</strong>'s "sister planet", for the two are<br />
similar in size, gravity, <strong>and</strong> bulk composition. Venus is covered with an opaque layer of<br />
highly reflective clouds of sulfuric acid, preventing its surface from being seen from space in<br />
visible light; this was a subject of great speculation until some of its secrets were revealed by<br />
planetary science in the twentieth century. Venus has the densest atmosphere of all the<br />
terrestrial planets, consisting mostly of carbon dioxide, as it has no carbon cycle to lock<br />
carbon back into rocks <strong>and</strong> surface features, nor organic life to absorb it in biomass. It has<br />
become so hot that the earth-like oceans the young Venus is believed to have possessed<br />
have totally evaporated, leaving a dusty dry desert scape with many slab-like rocks. <strong>The</strong><br />
evaporated water vapor has dissociated <strong>and</strong> hydrogen has escaped into interplanetary<br />
space. <strong>The</strong> atmospheric pressure at the planet's surface is 92 times that of the <strong>Earth</strong>,<br />
the great majority of it carbon dioxide <strong>and</strong> other greenhouse gases.<br />
Venus's surface has been mapped in detail only in the last 20 years; Project Magellan listed<br />
about a thous<strong>and</strong> meteor craters, a surprisingly low number compared to <strong>Earth</strong>. It shows<br />
evidence of being geologically very young with extensive volcanism, <strong>and</strong> the sulfur in the<br />
atmosphere is taken by some experts to show many of its volcanoes are still active today,<br />
but it is an enigma as to why no evidence of lava flow accompanies any of the visible<br />
caldera."<br />
As one of the brightest objects in the sky, Venus has been known since prehistoric times<br />
<strong>and</strong> as such has gained an entrenched position in human culture. <strong>The</strong> Babylonians named<br />
the planet Ishtar, the personification of womanhood, <strong>and</strong> goddess of love.<br />
In western astrology, derived from its historical connotation with goddesses of femininity <strong>and</strong><br />
love, Venus is held to influence those aspects of human life. In Indian Vedic astrology,<br />
Venus is known as Shukra, meaning "clear, pure" or "brightness, clearness" in Sanskrit.<br />

includes organisms populating fissures, aquifers, <strong>and</strong> faults filled with groundwater<br />
in the deep subsurface.<br />
• Halophile: An organism requiring at least 2M of salt, NaCl, for growth.<br />
• Hyperthermophile: An organism that can thrive at temperatures between 80-121 °C,<br />
such as those found in hydrothermal systems.<br />
• Hypolith: An organism that lives inside rocks in cold deserts.<br />
• Lithoautotroph: An organism (usually bacteria) whose sole source of carbon is<br />
carbon dioxide <strong>and</strong> exergonic inorganic oxidation (chemolithotrophs) such as<br />
Nitrosomonas europaea. <strong>The</strong>se organisms are capable of deriving energy from<br />
reduced mineral compounds like pyrites, <strong>and</strong> are active in geochemical cycling <strong>and</strong><br />
the weathering of parent bedrock to form soil.<br />
• Metalotolerant: capable of tolerating high levels of dissolved heavy metals in<br />
solution, such as copper, cadmium, arsenic, <strong>and</strong> zinc. Examples include<br />
Ferroplasma sp. <strong>and</strong> Ralstonia metallidurans.<br />
• Oligotroph: An organism capable of growth in nutritionally limited environments.<br />
• Osmophile: An organism capable of growth in environments with a high sugar<br />
concentration.<br />
• Piezophile: An organism that lives optimally at high hydrostatic pressure. Common<br />
in the deep terrestrial subsurface, as well as in oceanic trenches.<br />
• Polyextremophile: An organism that qualifies as an extremophiles under more than<br />
one category.<br />
• Psychrophile/Cryophile: An organism that grows better at temperatures of 15 °C or<br />
lower. Common in cold soils, permafrost, polar ice, cold ocean water, <strong>and</strong> in/under<br />
alpine snowpack.<br />
• Radioresistant: resistant to high levels of ionizing radiation, most commonly<br />
ultraviolet radiation but also includes organisms capable of resisting nuclear<br />
radiation.<br />
• <strong>The</strong>rmophile: An organism that can thrive at temperatures between 60-80 °C.<br />
• Xerophile: An organism that can grow in extremely dry, desiccating conditions. This<br />
type is exemplified by the soil microbes of the Atacama Desert.<br />
Relative to the majority of the deep sea extremophiles, the areas around submarine<br />
hydrothermal vents are biologically more productive, often hosting complex communities<br />
fueled by the chemicals dissolved in the vent fluids, supporting diverse organisms, including<br />
giant tube worms, clams, <strong>and</strong> shrimp.<br />
<strong>The</strong> water emerges from a hydrothermal vent at temperatures ranging up to 400°C,<br />
compared to a typical 2°C for the surrounding deep ocean water. <strong>The</strong> high pressure at these<br />
depths significantly exp<strong>and</strong>s the thermal range at which water remains liquid, <strong>and</strong> so the<br />
258
water doesn't boil. Water at a depth of 3,000 m <strong>and</strong> a temperature of 407°C becomes<br />
supercritical<br />
One community has been discovered dubbed 'Eel City', which consists predominantly of<br />
eels. Though eels are not uncommon, as mentioned earlier invertebrates typically dominate<br />
hydrothermal vents. Eel City is located near Nafanua volcanic cone, American Samoa.<br />
Other examples of the unique fauna who inhabit this ecosystem are a snail armored with<br />
scales made up of iron <strong>and</strong> organic materials, <strong>and</strong> the Pompeii worm (Alvinella Pompejana),<br />
which is capable of withst<strong>and</strong>ing temperatures up to 80°C (176°F). Over 300 new<br />
species have been discovered at hydrothermal vents.<br />
Active hydrothermal vents are believed to exist on Jupiter's moon Europa, <strong>and</strong> ancient<br />
hydrothermal vents have been speculated to exist on Mars."<br />

"<strong>The</strong> asteroid belt is the region of the Solar System located roughly between the orbits of<br />
the planets Mars <strong>and</strong> Jupiter. It is occupied by numerous irregularly shaped bodies called<br />
asteroids or minor plarnets. <strong>The</strong> asteroid belt region is also termed the main belt to<br />
distinguish it from other concentrations of minor planets within the Solar System, such as the<br />
Kuiper belt <strong>and</strong> scattered disk.<br />
More than half the mass within the main belt is contained in the four largest objects: Ceres,<br />
4 Vesta, 2 Pallas, <strong>and</strong> 10 Hygiea. All of these have mean diameters of more than 400 km,<br />
while Ceres, the main belt's only dwarf planet, is about 950 km in diameter. <strong>The</strong> remaining<br />

148 "... Tiahuanaco..."<br />
"Tiwanaku monumental architecture is characterized by large stones of exceptional<br />
workmanship. In contrast to the masonry style of the later Inca, Tiwanaku stone<br />
architecture usually employs rectangular ashlar blocks laid in regular courses, <strong>and</strong><br />
monumental structures were frequently fitted with elaborate drainage systems.<br />
Bronze or copper "double-T" clamps were often used to anchor large blocks in place.<br />
<strong>The</strong> stone used to build Tiwanaku was quarried <strong>and</strong> then transported 40 km or more<br />
to the city. <strong>The</strong>y were moved without the aid of the wheel, though much of the distance was<br />
over water.<br />
<strong>The</strong> community grew to urban proportions (in antiquity) becoming an important regional<br />
power in the southern Andes. Satellite imaging was used recently to map the extent of<br />
fossilized suka kollus across the three primary valleys of Tiwanaku, arriving at populationcarrying<br />
capacity estimates of anywhere between 285,000 <strong>and</strong> 1,482,000 people.<br />
<strong>The</strong>y worshipped many gods, <strong>and</strong> one of the most important gods was Viracocha, the<br />
god of action, shaper of many worlds, <strong>and</strong> destroyer of many worlds. He created<br />
259
people, with two servants, on a great piece of rock. <strong>The</strong>n he drew sections on the rock<br />
<strong>and</strong> sent his servants to name the tribes in those areas. In Tiwanaku he created the people<br />
out of rock <strong>and</strong> brought life to them through the earth. <strong>The</strong> Tiwanaku believed that<br />
Viracocha created giants to move the massive stones that comprise much of their<br />
archeology, but then grew unhappy with the giants <strong>and</strong> created a flood to destroy them."<br />

150 "... Machupiccu ..."<br />
Machu Picchu (Quechua: Machu Picchu, "Old Peak") is a pre-Columbian Inca site located<br />
2,400 meters (7,875 ft) above sea level. It is situated on a mountain ridge above the<br />
Urubamba Valley in Peru, which is 80 km (50 mi) northwest of Cuzco. Often referred to as<br />
"<strong>The</strong> Lost City of the Incas", Machu Picchu is probably the most familiar symbol of the Inca<br />
Empire.<br />
One theory maintains that Machu Picchu was an Inca "llacta": a settlement built to control<br />
the economy of the conquered regions. It may also have been built as a prison for the<br />
selective few who had commited such henous crimes against the Inca society. Research<br />
conducted by scholars, such as John Rowe <strong>and</strong> Richard Burger, has convinced most<br />
archaeologists that rather than a defensive retreat, Machu Picchu was an estate of the Inca<br />
emperor, Pachacuti. In addition, Johan Reinhard presented evidence that the site was<br />
selected based on its position relative to sacred l<strong>and</strong>scape features. One such example is its<br />
mountains, which are purported to be in alignment with key astronomical events.<br />
Shamanic legends say that if you're a sensitive person <strong>and</strong> you rub your forehead against<br />
the world-famous Intihuatana Stone you will see the spirit world. <strong>The</strong> Intihuatana stone is<br />
one of the many ritual stones in South America. <strong>The</strong>y are arranged so they point directly at<br />
the sun during the winter solstice. <strong>The</strong> Spanish did not find Machu Picchu until the 20th<br />
century so the Intihuatana Stone was not destroyed like many other ritual stones. It is also<br />
called "<strong>The</strong> Hitching Point of the Sun" because it was supposed to hold the sun in it's place.<br />
It is (as they said before) believed to be an astronomic clock built by the Incas."<br />

a religious site for the veneration of the Pacha Kamaq creator god. <strong>The</strong> Ichma joined the<br />

However the Inca maintained it as a religious shrine <strong>and</strong> allowed the Pachacamac priests to<br />
continue functioning independently of the Inca priesthood. This included the oracle, whom<br />
the Inca presumably consulted. <strong>The</strong> Inca built five additional buildings, including a temple to<br />

153 "<strong>The</strong> "great" pyramid..."<br />
"A total of over 2,300,000 blocks of limestone <strong>and</strong> granite were used in its construction with<br />
the average block weighing 2.5 tons <strong>and</strong> none weighing less than 2 tons. <strong>The</strong> large blocks<br />
used in the ceiling of the King's Chamber weigh as much as 9 tons.<br />
• Construction date (Estimated): 2589 B.C..<br />
• Construction time (Estimated): 20 years.<br />
• Total weight (Estimated): 6.5 million tons.<br />
• <strong>The</strong> estimated total weight of the structure is 6.5 million tons!<br />
261
• <strong>The</strong> base of the pyramid covers 13 acres, 568,500 square feet <strong>and</strong> the length of<br />
each side was originally 754 feet, but is now 745 feet.<br />
• <strong>The</strong> original height was 481 feet tall, but is now only 449 feet.<br />
<strong>The</strong> distance when <strong>Earth</strong> is closest to Sun (perihelion) is 147x10 6 km, which is translated<br />
into royal cubits 280x10 9 , hinting at the height of the Great pyramid, 280 royal cubits.<br />
<strong>The</strong> earth/moon relationship is the only one in our solar system that contains this unique<br />
golden section ratio that "squares the circle". Along with this is the phenomenon that the<br />
moon <strong>and</strong> the sun appear to be the same size, most clearly noticed during an eclipse. This<br />
too is true only from earth's vantage point…No other planet/moon relationship in our solar<br />
system can make this claim.<br />
Although the problem of squaring the circle was proven mathematically impossible in the<br />
19th century (as pi, being irrational, cannot be exactly measured), the <strong>Earth</strong>, the moon, <strong>and</strong><br />
the Great Pyramid, are all coming about as close as you can get to the solution!<br />
If the base of the Great Pyramid is equated with the diameter of the earth, then the radius of<br />
the moon can be generated by subtracting the radius of the earth from the height of the<br />
pyramid.<br />
<strong>The</strong> height of the Great Pyramid times 2π exactly equals the perimeter of the pyramid. This<br />
proportions result from elegant design of the pyramid with the height equal two diameters of<br />
a circle <strong>and</strong> the base equal to the circumference of the circle.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Pyramid of the Sun <strong>and</strong> the Great Pyramid of Egypt are almost or very nearly equal<br />
to one another in base perimeter. <strong>The</strong> Pyramid of the Sun is "almost" half the height of the<br />
Great Pyramid. <strong>The</strong>re is a slight difference. <strong>The</strong> Great Pyramid is 1.03 - times larger than the<br />
base of the Pyramid of the Sun. Conversely, the base of the Pyramid of the Sun is 97% of<br />
the Great Pyramid's base."<br />

154 "... Pyramid texts."<br />
"<strong>The</strong> Pyramid Texts are a collection of ancient Egyptian religious texts from the time of the<br />
Old Kingdom, mostly inscriptions on the walls of tombs in pyramids. <strong>The</strong>y depict the<br />
Egyptian view of the afterlife, <strong>and</strong> the ascent into the sky of the divine Pharaoh after death.<br />
<strong>The</strong>y were written upwards of five thous<strong>and</strong> years ago; thus, they are some of the oldest<br />
known writings in the world.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Pyramid Texts are also the oldest collection of religious spells known to us from ancient<br />
Egypt. This collection forms the basis of much of the later religious theology <strong>and</strong> literature of<br />
ancient Egypt. <strong>The</strong> passages were eventually separated <strong>and</strong> categorized, as well as<br />
illustrated <strong>and</strong> eventually evolved into the Book of the Dead, or more properly, <strong>The</strong> Book of<br />
the Coming forth by Day.<br />
It is difficult to date the Pyramid Texts. <strong>The</strong>ir origins have aroused much speculation<br />
regarding their origin because they emerge, as a fully-fledged collection of mortuary texts,<br />
without any precedent in the archaeological record. <strong>The</strong> fact that the texts are made up of<br />
distinct utterances which do not have a strict narrative sequence linking them together has<br />
led scholars to believe that many of them were not composed specifically for the purpose of<br />
262
eing inscribed in the pyramids but may have had earlier uses. In fact, spells such as<br />
Utterances 273-4, called the Cannibal Hymn, <strong>and</strong> which only appears in the Pyramids of<br />
Unas <strong>and</strong> Teti, refer to aspects of the funerary cult that seem to no longer been in practice at<br />
the time the pyramids were built.<br />
Early analysts attempted to date the text as early as possible; even from the predynastic<br />
period. A very early dating of these texts remains a strong possibility, though today, scholars<br />
place the text's origins with the date of the monuments where they reside. In reality, we have<br />
very little idea of the date of their initial invention, perhaps other than the antiquated<br />
language employed."<br />

Alnitak is a double star system. Alnitak A is a blue O9.7Ib supergiant star about 15 times the<br />
diameter of the sun, at least 11,000 times more luminous than the sun.<br />
Thuban is another name for the star is Adib from the Arabic Al Dhi'bah, "<strong>The</strong> Hyenas". A<br />
number of stars in the constellation of Draco. According to Allen, seamen were accustomed<br />
to call Thuban "<strong>The</strong> Dragon's Tail." Thuban is a white A0III giant having a luminosity about<br />
260 times that of the sun. Spectral analysis indicates that Thuban has a companion star<br />
orbiting with a 51.4 day period.<br />
Sirius is also known colloquially as the "Dog Star", reflecting its prominence in its<br />
constellation, Canis Major. It is the subject of more mythological <strong>and</strong> folkloric tales than any<br />
other star apart from the sun. <strong>The</strong> heliacal rising of Sirius marked the flooding of the Nile in<br />
Ancient Egypt <strong>and</strong> the 'Dog Days' of summer<br />
Sirius is the brightest star in the night sky with a visual apparent magnitude of −1.47, almost<br />
twice as bright as Canopus, the next brightest star. What appears as a single star to the<br />
naked eye is actually a binary star system, consisting of Sirius A, <strong>and</strong> a faint white dwarf<br />
companion of spectral type DA2, termed Sirius B.<br />
Sirius is bright due to both its intrinsic luminosity <strong>and</strong> its closeness to the Sun. At a distance<br />
of 2.6 parsecs (8.6 light-years), the Sirius system is one of our near neighbors. Sirius A is<br />
about twice as massive as the Sun <strong>and</strong> has an absolute visual magnitude of 1.42. It is 25<br />
times more luminous than the Sun.<br />
Sirius is recorded in the earliest astronomical records, known in Ancient Egypt as Sopdet<br />
(Greek: Sothis). During the era of the Middle Kingdom, Egyptians based their calendar on<br />
the heliacal rising of Sirius, namely the day it becomes visible just before sunrise after<br />
moving far enough away from the glare of the sun. This occurred just before the annual<br />
flooding of the Nile <strong>and</strong> the summer solstice, after a 70 day absence from the skies. <strong>The</strong><br />
hieroglyph for Sothis features a star <strong>and</strong> a triangle. Sothis was identified with the great<br />
goddess Isis who formed a part of a trinity with her husb<strong>and</strong> Osiris <strong>and</strong> their son Horus,<br />
while the 70 day period symbolized the passing of Isis <strong>and</strong> Osiris though the duat (Egyptian<br />
underworld).<br />
North Star, also known as the Pole Star, is the star that lies closest in the sky to the north<br />
celestial pole, <strong>and</strong> which appears directly overhead to an observer at the <strong>Earth</strong>'s North Pole.<br />
<strong>The</strong> current North Star is Polaris, which lies about two-thirds of a degree from the pole at the<br />
end of the "h<strong>and</strong>le" of the Little Dipper asterism in the constellation Ursa Minor. Polaris has a<br />
visual magnitude of 1.97 (second magnitude). (Some people mistakenly think that Polaris is<br />
the brightest star in the night sky. This title belongs to Sirius, <strong>and</strong> there are many others<br />
stars also brighter than Polaris.)<br />
Due to the precession of the equinoxes the direction of the <strong>Earth</strong>'s axis is very slowly but<br />
continuously changing, <strong>and</strong> as the projection of the <strong>Earth</strong>'s axis moves around the celestial<br />
sphere over the millennia, the role of North Star passes from one star to another. Since the<br />
precession of the equinoxes is so slow, a single star typically holds that title for many<br />
centuries.<br />
In 3000 BC the faint star Thuban in the constellation Draco was the North Star. At<br />
magnitude 3.67 (fourth magnitude) it is only one-fifth as bright as Polaris, the current North<br />
Star (situated 430 light-years away).<br />

" <strong>The</strong> human pharaoh moved the Capital city of Egypt from Memphis to<br />
Heracleopolis".<br />
"Heracleopolis was the main city of Egypt during a turbulent time in our history, the First<br />
Intermediate Period. Details are not clear, but apparently when the VIth dynasty ended, the<br />
rulers who followed were too weak to rule the whole l<strong>and</strong>. Akhtoy, the local nomarch,<br />
declared independence from Memphis, <strong>and</strong> when the last Memphite pharaoh died childless,<br />
he declared himself god-king of the Two L<strong>and</strong>s <strong>and</strong> founder of the IXth dynasty. All of Middle<br />
Egypt <strong>and</strong> part of the eastern Nile Delta submitted to Akhtoy's authority. Akhmin, in the 9th<br />
nome, became the southern boundary between those who supported Akhtoy <strong>and</strong> those who<br />
opposed him.<br />
In Upper Egypt there were at least three governors who refused to acknowledge the new<br />
order: those of Thinis, Wast (<strong>The</strong>bes) <strong>and</strong> Nekhen (Hierakonopolis). For a long time they<br />
fought among themselves, because chaos always reigns where there is no central authority.<br />
Finally one of them, Inyotef II of Wast, prevailed against the others; the nomarchs of Asyut<br />
now became the defenders of the dignity of the Heracleopolitan kings. <strong>The</strong> IXth dynasty was<br />
succeeded by the Xth at home, <strong>and</strong> for more than sixty years the line was held at Akhmin,<br />
despite frequent raids from both sides. Finally the gr<strong>and</strong>son of Inyotef, Mentuhotep II,<br />
captured Asyut; once that happened he quickly marched downstream <strong>and</strong> overthrew the Xth<br />
dynasty. That marked the reunification of Egypt <strong>and</strong> the beginning of the Middle Kingdom.<br />
Heracleopolis was never as important afterwards, though it marked the site of a key fortress<br />
in the XXIInd dynasty, built by the second son of Osorkon II."<br />

"Plato's reference to Egypt as the source of the Atlantis myth, via Solon. <strong>The</strong> Egyptians<br />
called Atlantis Kepchu, which also happens to be their name for the people of Crete. It is<br />
speculated that survivors of the Minoan volcanic disaster asked Egypt for help, since they<br />
were the only other civilization with high culture at the time.<br />
Plato described quarries on the isl<strong>and</strong> of Atlantis where "rocks of white, black, <strong>and</strong> red" were<br />
extracted from the hills <strong>and</strong> used to construct a great isl<strong>and</strong> city. <strong>The</strong> description matches<br />
the rocks found on Santorini.<br />
<strong>The</strong> isl<strong>and</strong>-city of Atlantis was described as being laid out in a series of concentric circles of<br />
l<strong>and</strong> <strong>and</strong> water, each one connected to the sea by a deep canal. Docks for a huge number of<br />
ships, <strong>and</strong> a causeway for unloading cargo of said ships, also was described. Unearthed<br />
frescos from the isl<strong>and</strong> have depicted Santorini with a configuration that can be interpreted in<br />
this way. It also shows a huge city on the isl<strong>and</strong>, theorized by archaeologists to represent the<br />
center of the caldera.<br />

At Akrotiri there are multi-story buildings. This city may have had the earliest form of town<br />
planning (structured assembly of interconnecting roads <strong>and</strong> paths) ever discovered, again,<br />

"Minoan civilization disappeared suddenly, at the height of its wealth <strong>and</strong> power. This also<br />
was similar to Plato's description of the fate of the "Atlanteans". Scientists theorize that<br />
multiple tsunamis hit the isl<strong>and</strong> of Crete, circa 1500 BC, which came from the direction of the<br />
isl<strong>and</strong> of Santorini (then called <strong>The</strong>ra) about 100 miles from Crete.<br />
Santorini is the site of a massive caldera with an isl<strong>and</strong> at its center. Vulcanologists have<br />
determined this ill-fated isl<strong>and</strong> was engulfed by the terrible ca. 1500 BC eruption <strong>and</strong><br />
collapse of the Stroggilí volcano there, which affected the entire eastern Mediterranean, as<br />
far away as the Near East—possibly the most powerful eruption in recorded history, ejecting<br />
approximately 30 km³ (7 cu miles) of magma, up to 36 km (23 miles) high. Volcanic events of<br />
this magnitude are known to generate tsunamis."<br />

161 "... the exact geodetic center of Egypt..."<br />
"Five years into the co-regency, Amenhotep IV changed his name to Akhenaten <strong>and</strong> left<br />
<strong>The</strong>bes to establish a new Egyptian capital city, which he called Akhetaten (meaning the<br />
resting place or horizon of the Aten). <strong>The</strong> change in name indicated that he no longer<br />
considered himself to be the son of the god Amun, but of Aten. On the monuments marking<br />
the four corners of the new city, Akhenaten referred to the hateful words spoken about him<br />
<strong>and</strong> his forefathers by the priests of Amun. Obviously, he had hoped that the city of<br />
Akhetaten would be his resting place as well.<br />
At the city of Akhetaten, the ancient religion of the Aten received a make-over. Aten temple<br />
design, ritual, <strong>and</strong> symbolism (by a falcon-headed man <strong>and</strong> a sun disc referred to as Re-<br />
Herakhty) derived originally from the traditional solar god Ra whose center of worship had<br />
been from very ancient times at Memphis <strong>and</strong> On (Heliopolis). By the end of the coregency,<br />
the falcon-man had been removed from the Aten's symbol. <strong>The</strong> Aten had in essence<br />
become a god without human or animal image. <strong>The</strong> disc of the sun was now considered to<br />
be the single physical representation of the invisible <strong>and</strong> eternal god, Ra, <strong>and</strong> a deity in its<br />
own right. (<strong>The</strong> sun disc was used later as a royal "lamelech" seal by the Kings of Judah).<br />
<strong>The</strong> cartouche of Akhenaten's god <strong>and</strong> heavenly father, the Aten, bore the name Imram. In<br />
the Bible, Moses is referred to as the son of Amram, the Hebrew equivalent.<br />
<strong>The</strong> name of the Egyptian deity Aten transliterates into the Hebrew word Adon. Adon,<br />
which is translated by English Bibles as "the Lord" (<strong>and</strong> Adonai, translated as "my Lord") is<br />
used along with Jehovah (Yhwh) in the Bible as the exclusive personal names of God.<br />
Moreover, in ancient times, the name Jehovah (Yhwh) was written, but never spoken.<br />
Whenever the written name Jehovah (Yhwh) was to be read out loud, Adon (Aten) was<br />
voiced instead. <strong>The</strong> written form of Adon is infrequent, however, its limited usage is<br />
significant, especially in the first six books of the Bible (See under "LORD" in Strong's<br />
266
Exhaustive Concordance), where it is reserved for the following applications alone: Moses<br />
addresses God using the title Adon/Aten (Exodus 4:10,13; 5:22; 34:9; Numbers 14:17;<br />
Deuteronomy 3:23; 7:26; 10:17); Moses, himself, is addressed both by Aaron<br />
(Ex.32:22; Num.12:11) <strong>and</strong> by Joshua (Numbers 11:28) using the title Adon/Aten; <strong>and</strong><br />
Joshua also addresses God using the title Adon/Aten (Joshua 5:14 b; 7:7). As<br />
mentioned above, there is an established relationship between the literature of the Egyptian<br />
18th Dynasty <strong>and</strong> the Bible. Psalm 104 is an embellishment of the Hymn to the Aten which<br />
was found by archaeologists at the city of Akhetaten.<br />
<strong>The</strong> religious reforms of Akhenaten included the rejection of traditional Egyptian magic <strong>and</strong><br />
astrology associated with the cult of Amun, <strong>and</strong> the rejection of the cult of Osiris with its<br />
version of belief in eternal judgment <strong>and</strong> the afterlife as well. <strong>The</strong> site chosen for the new<br />
capital of Egypt further demonstrated Akhenaten's desire for a new balance as it was<br />
located at the exact geodetic center of the country."<br />

162 "... the destruction of Troy as the finale of the Trojan War."<br />
"In Greek mythology, the Trojan War was waged against the city of Troy by the Achaeans<br />
after Paris of Troy stole Helen from her husb<strong>and</strong> Menelaus, the king of Sparta. <strong>The</strong> war is<br />
among the most important events in Greek mythology, <strong>and</strong> was narrated in many works of<br />
Greek literature, including the Iliad <strong>and</strong> the Odyssey by Homer. <strong>The</strong> Iliad relates a part of the<br />
last year of the siege of Troy, while the Odyssey describes the journey home of Odysseus,<br />
one of the Achaean leaders. Other parts of the war were told in a cycle of epic poems, which<br />
has only survived in fragments. Episodes from the war provided material for Greek tragedy<br />
<strong>and</strong> other works of Greek literature, <strong>and</strong> for Roman poets like Virgil <strong>and</strong> Ovid.<br />
<strong>The</strong> war originated from a quarrel between the goddesses Athena, Hera <strong>and</strong> Aphrodite, after<br />
Eris, the goddess of strife <strong>and</strong> discord, gave them a golden apple, sometimes known as the<br />
Apple of Discord, marked "for the fairest". <strong>The</strong> goddesses went to Paris, who judged that<br />
Aphrodite, as the "fairest", should receive the apple. In exchange, Aphrodite made Helen,<br />
the most beautiful of all women, fall in love with Paris, who took her to Troy. Agamemnon,<br />
king of Mycenae <strong>and</strong> the brother of Helen's husb<strong>and</strong> Menelaus, led an expedition of<br />
Achaean troops to Troy <strong>and</strong> besieged the city for ten years. After the deaths of many heroes,<br />
including the Achaeans Achilles <strong>and</strong> Ajax, <strong>and</strong> the Trojans Hector <strong>and</strong> Paris, the city fell to<br />
the ruse of the Trojan Horse. <strong>The</strong> Achaeans slaughtered the Trojans <strong>and</strong> desecrated the<br />
temples, thus earning the gods' wrath. Few of the Achaeans returned safely to their homes<br />
<strong>and</strong> many founded colonies in distant shores. <strong>The</strong> Romans later traced their origin to<br />
Aeneas, one of the Trojans, who was said to have led the surviving Trojans to Italy.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Ancient Greeks thought the Trojan War was a historical event that had taken place in<br />
the 13th or 12th century BC, <strong>and</strong> believed that Troy was located in modern day Turkey near<br />
the Dardanelles. By modern times both the war <strong>and</strong> the city were widely believed to be nonhistorical.<br />
In 1870, however, the German archaeologist Heinrich Schliemann excavated a<br />
site in this area which he identified as Troy; this claim is now accepted by most scholars<br />
<strong>The</strong> Trojan War derive from a specific historical conflict usually date it to the 12th or 11th<br />
centuries BC, often preferring the dates given by Eratosthenes, 1194–1184 BC, which<br />
roughly corresponds with archaeological evidence of a catastrophic burning of Troy."<br />

163 "Homer, the blind Greek poet..."<br />
"Homer (ancient Greek: µηρος, Homēros) was an ancient Greek (Ionian) epic poet,<br />
traditionally considered the author of the epic poems the Iliad <strong>and</strong> the Odyssey. No reliable<br />
biographical information about Homer survives from classical antiquity. <strong>The</strong> cardinal<br />
qualities of the style of Homer have been well articulated by Matthew Arnold: "the translator<br />
of Homer," he says, "should above all be penetrated by a sense of the four qualities of his<br />
author: that he is eminently rapid; that he is eminently plain <strong>and</strong> direct, both in the evolution<br />
of his thought <strong>and</strong> in the expression of it, that is, both in his syntax <strong>and</strong> in his words; that he<br />
is eminently plain <strong>and</strong> direct in the substance of his thought, that is, in his matter <strong>and</strong> ideas;<br />
<strong>and</strong> finally, that he is eminently noble".<br />
<strong>The</strong> language used by Homer is an archaic version of Ionic Greek, with admixtures from<br />
certain other dialects, such as Aeolic Greek. It later served as the basis of Epic Greek, the<br />
language of epic poetry, typically in dactylic hexameter.<br />
A number of traditions hold that he was blind (perhaps because, in the Aeolian dialect of<br />
Cyme, homēros bore this meaning) <strong>and</strong> that he was born on the isl<strong>and</strong> of Chios, at Smyrna<br />
or elsewhere in Ionia, where various cities vied in claiming him as one of their native sons.<br />
<strong>The</strong> characterization of Homer as a blind bard is supported by a possibly self-referential<br />
passage in the Odyssey in which a shipwrecked Odysseus listens to the tales of a blind bard<br />
named Demodocus while in the court of the Phaeacian king."<br />

164 "Solon, a wise man from Greece reported the existence of Atlantis.."<br />
"Solon was a famous Athenian statesman, lawmaker, <strong>and</strong> Lyric poet. <strong>The</strong> travel writer,<br />
Pausanias, listed Solon among the Seven Sages of the ancient world. Solon has acquired a<br />
place in history <strong>and</strong> in folklore through his efforts to legislate against political, economic <strong>and</strong><br />
moral decline in archaic Athens. Some of his reforms failed in the short term, yet he is often<br />
credited with having laid the foundations for Athenian democracy.<br />
After he had finished reforming the country, Solon traveled abroad. His first stop was Egypt.<br />
<strong>The</strong>re he visited Heliopolis, where he discussed philosophy with an Egyptian expert on the<br />
subject, Psenophis. Subsequently, at Sais, he visited Neith's temple <strong>and</strong> received from<br />
the priests there an account of the history of Atlantis. Solon wrote out this history as<br />
a poem, to which Plato subsequently made references in his dialogues Timaios <strong>and</strong><br />
Critias. Next Solon sailed to Cyprus, where he oversaw the construction of a new capital for<br />
a local king, in gratitude for which the king named it Soloi."<br />

165 " Zoroaster..."<br />
"Zoroaster, the prophet <strong>and</strong> poet sees the universe as the cosmic struggle between aša<br />
“truth” <strong>and</strong> druj “lie.” <strong>The</strong> cardinal concept of aša - which is highly nuanced <strong>and</strong> only vaguely<br />
translatable - is at the foundation of all other Zoroastrian doctrine, including that of Ahura<br />
Mazda (who is aša), creation (that is aša), existence (that is aša) <strong>and</strong> Free Will, which is<br />
arguably Zoroaster’s greatest contribution to religious philosophy. <strong>The</strong> purpose of<br />
humankind, like that of all other creation, is to sustain aša. For humankind, this occurs<br />
through active participation in life <strong>and</strong> the exercise of good thoughts, words <strong>and</strong> deeds.<br />
268
<strong>The</strong> name Zoroaster was famous in classical antiquity, <strong>and</strong> a number of different Zoroasters<br />
- all described as having occult powers - appear in historiographic accounts.<br />
In Pliny’s Natural History, Zoroaster is said to have laughed on the day of his birth. He lived<br />
in the wilderness <strong>and</strong> enjoyed exploring it from a young age. Plutarch compares him with<br />
Lycurgus <strong>and</strong> Numa Pompilius (Numa, 4). Plutarch, drawing partly on <strong>The</strong>opompus, speaks<br />
of Zoroaster in Isis <strong>and</strong> Osiris: In this work, the prophet is empowered by trust in his God <strong>and</strong><br />
the protection of his allies. He faces outward opposition <strong>and</strong> unbelief, <strong>and</strong> inward doubt.<br />
<strong>The</strong> works of Zoroaster had a significant influence on Greek philosophy <strong>and</strong> Roman<br />
philosophy. <strong>The</strong> ancient Greek writer Eudoxus of Cnidus <strong>and</strong> the Latin writer Pliny the Elder<br />
praised Zoroaster’s philosophy as “the most famous <strong>and</strong> most useful.” Plato learnt of<br />
Zoroaster’s philosophy through Eudoxus <strong>and</strong> incorporated some of it into his own Platonic<br />
realism. In the third century BC, however, Colotes accused Plato’s <strong>The</strong> Republic of<br />
plagiarizing parts of (what is attributed to) Zoroaster’s On Nature, such as the Myth of Er.<br />
Plato’s contemporary, Heraclides Ponticus, wrote a text called Zoroaster based on<br />
Zoroaster’s philosophy in order to express his disagreement with Plato on natural<br />
philosophy.<br />
Zoroaster was mentioned by the nineteenth-century poet William Butler Yeats. His wife <strong>and</strong><br />
he were said to have claimed to have contacted Zoroaster through “automatic writing.”<br />
<strong>The</strong> 2005 edition of the Oxford Dictionary of Philosophy places Zoroaster first in a<br />
chronology of philosophers."<br />

166 "... an IS-BE called Ahura Mazda."<br />
"Ahura Mazda (Ahura Mazdā) is the Avestan language name for a divinity exalted by<br />
Zoroaster as the one uncreated Creator, hence God. He is the nameless "Father Asura",<br />
that is, Varuna of the Rigveda. In this view, Zoroastrian mazda is the equivalent of the Vedic<br />
medhira, described in Rigveda 8.6.10 as the "(revealed) insight into the cosmic order".<br />
Ahura Mazda is seen as the Ahura par excellence, superior to both *vouruna <strong>and</strong> *mitra, <strong>and</strong><br />
the nameless "Father Asura" of the Rigveda <strong>and</strong> is a distinct divinity. <strong>The</strong> Zoroastrian faith<br />
is thus described by its adherents as Mazdayasna, the worship of Mazda. In the Avesta,<br />
"Ahura Mazda is the highest object of worship".<br />

167 "Laozi, a philosopher who wrote a small book called "<strong>The</strong> Way"..."<br />
"According to tradition, it was written around 6th century BC by the Taoist sage Laozi (or Lao<br />
Tzu, "Old Master"), a record-keeper at the Zhou Dynasty court, by whose name the text is<br />
known in China. Tao Te Ching is a Chinese classic text. Its name comes from the opening<br />
words of its two sections: dào "way," <strong>and</strong> dé "virtue".<br />
This ancient book is also central in Chinese religion, not only for Taoism (Dàojiāo ) but<br />
Chinese Buddhism, which when first introduced into China was largely interpreted through<br />
the use of Taoist words <strong>and</strong> concepts. Many Chinese artists, including poets, painters,<br />
269
calligraphers, <strong>and</strong> even gardeners have used the Tao Te Ching as a source of inspiration. Its<br />
influence has also spread widely outside East Asia, aided by hundreds of translations into<br />
Western languages."<br />
Tao is nameless. (Tao) goes beyond distinctions, <strong>and</strong> transcends language.<br />
Laozi describes a state of existence before time or space:<br />
"<strong>The</strong> Way that can be told of is not an unvarying way;<br />
<strong>The</strong> names that can be named are not unvarying names.<br />
It was from the Nameless that heaven <strong>and</strong> <strong>Earth</strong> sprang;<br />
<strong>The</strong> named is but the mother that rears the ten thous<strong>and</strong> creatures.<br />
Each after its kind."<br />
"<strong>The</strong> Spirit never dies.<br />
It is the Mysterious Female.<br />
<strong>The</strong> doorway of the Mysterious Female<br />
Is the base from which Heaven <strong>and</strong> <strong>Earth</strong> sprang.<br />
It is there within us, all the while;<br />
Draw upon it as you will.<br />
It never runs dry.<br />
We put spokes together <strong>and</strong> call it a wheel;<br />
But it is on the space where there is nothing that the value of the wheel depends.<br />
We turn clay to make a vessel;<br />
But it is on the space where there is nothing that the value of the vessel depends.<br />
We pierce doors <strong>and</strong> windows to make a house;<br />
And it is on these spaces where there is nothing that the value of the house<br />
depends.<br />
<strong>The</strong>refore just as we take advantage of what is,<br />
we should recognize the value of what is not.<br />
Knowing others is wisdom;<br />
Knowing the self is enlightenment.<br />
Mastering others requires force;<br />
Mastering the self requires strength;<br />
He who knows he has enough is rich.<br />
Perseverance is a sign of will power.<br />
He who stays where he is, endures.<br />
To die but not to perish is to be eternally present."<br />

recognized in other philosophies, both religious <strong>and</strong> secular."<br />

169 "... Omphalos stones..."<br />
"An omphalos is an ancient religious stone artifact, or baetylusr. In Greek, the word<br />
omphalos means "navel" (compare the name of Queen Omphale). According to the ancient<br />
Greeks, Zeus sent out two eagles to fly across the world to meet at its center, the "navel" of<br />
the world. Omphalos stones used to denote this point were erected in several areas<br />
surrounding the Mediterranean Sea; the most famous of those was at the oracle in Delphi.<br />
Most accounts locate the Omphalos in the temple adyton near the Pythia. <strong>The</strong> stone itself<br />
(which may have been a copy) has a carving of a knotted net covering its surface, <strong>and</strong> has a<br />
hollow centre, which widens towards its base<br />
<strong>The</strong> Omphalos at Delphi came to be identified as the stone which Rhea wrapped in<br />
swaddling clothes, pretending it was Zeus. This was to deceive Cronus, his father, who<br />
swallowed his children so they could not grow up <strong>and</strong> depose him as he had deposed his<br />
own father, Uranus. Omphalos stones were said to allow direct communication with<br />
"the gods".<br />

170 "...Python, the serpent..."<br />
"In Greek mythology Python, serpent, was the earth-dragon of Delphi, always represented<br />
in sculpture <strong>and</strong> vase-paintings as a serpent. She resided at the Delphic oracle, which<br />
existed in the cult center for her mother, Gaia, <strong>Earth</strong>, Pytho being the place name. <strong>The</strong> site<br />
was considered the center of the earth, represented by a stone, the omphalos or navel,<br />
which Python guarded. Pytho became the enemy of the later Olympian deity Apollo, who<br />
slew her <strong>and</strong> remade her former home <strong>and</strong> the oracle, the most famous in Classical Greece,<br />
as his own. Many pictures show the serpent Python guarding the Omphalos, the sacred<br />
navel-stone <strong>and</strong> mid-point of the earth, which stood in Apollo's temple".<br />

171 "...Cyrus II of Persia..."<br />
Cyrus the Great (c. 590 BC or 576 — August 529 BC or 530 BC), also known as Cyrus II<br />
of Persia <strong>and</strong> Cyrus the Elder, was a Persian emperor. He was the founder of the Persian<br />
271
Empire under the Achaemenid dynasty. <strong>The</strong> empire exp<strong>and</strong>ed under his rule, eventually<br />
conquering most of Southwest Asia <strong>and</strong> much of Central Asia, from Egypt <strong>and</strong> the<br />
Hellespont in the west to the Indus River in the east, to create the largest state the world<br />
had yet seen.<br />
During his twenty-nine year reign, Cyrus fought against some of the greatest states of his<br />
time, including the Median Empire, the Lydian Empire, <strong>and</strong> the Neo-Babylonian Empire.<br />
Cyrus did not venture into Egypt, as he himself died in battle, fighting the Massagetae along<br />
the Syr Darya in August 530 BC. He was succeeded by his son, Cambyses II, who<br />
managed to conquer Egypt during his short rule.<br />
Beyond his nation, Cyrus left a lasting legacy on Jewish religion (through his Edict of<br />
Restoration), politics, <strong>and</strong> military strategy, as well as on both Eastern <strong>and</strong> Western<br />
civilization.<br />
<strong>The</strong> only known example of his religious policy is his treatment of the Jews in Babylon. <strong>The</strong><br />
Bible records that a remnant of the Jewish population returned to the Promised L<strong>and</strong> from<br />
Babylon, following an edict from Cyrus to rebuild the temple. This edict is fully reproduced in<br />
the Book of Ezra. As a result of Cyrus' policies, the Jews honored him as a dignified<br />
<strong>and</strong> righteous king. He is the only Gentile to be designated as a messiah, a divinelyappointed<br />
king, in the Tanakh (Isaiah 45:1-6).<br />
Some contemporary Muslim scholars have suggested that the Qur'anic figure of Dhul-<br />
Qarnayn is Cyrus the Great. This theory was proposed by Sunni scholar Abul Kalam Azad<br />
<strong>and</strong> endorsed by Shi'a scholars Allameh Tabatabaei, in his Tafsir al-Mizan <strong>and</strong> Makarem<br />
Shirazi <strong>and</strong> Sunni scholar Abul Ala Maududi.<br />
During his reign, Cyrus maintained control over a vast region of conquered kingdoms,<br />
achieved partly through retaining <strong>and</strong> exp<strong>and</strong>ing Median satrapies. Cyrus' conquests<br />
began a new era in the age of empire building, where a vast superstate, comprising<br />
many dozens of countries, races, religions, <strong>and</strong> languages, were ruled under a single<br />
administration headed by a central government.<br />
In 1992, he was ranked #87 on Michael H. Hart's list of the most influential figures in history.<br />
On December 10, 2003, in her acceptance of the Nobel Peace Prize, Shirin Ebadi evoked<br />
Cyrus, saying:<br />
"I am an Iranian, a descendant of Cyrus the Great. This emperor proclaimed at the<br />
pinnacle of power 2,500 years ago that he 'would not reign over the people if they did<br />
not wish it.' He promised not to force any person to change his religion <strong>and</strong> faith <strong>and</strong><br />
guaranteed freedom for all. <strong>The</strong> Charter of Cyrus the Great should be studied in the<br />
history of human rights."<br />
Many of the forefathers of the United States of America sought inspiration from Cyrus the<br />
Great through works such as Cyropaedia. Thomas Jefferson, for example, had two personal<br />
copies of the book, "which was a m<strong>and</strong>atory read for statesmen alongside Machiavelli's <strong>The</strong><br />
Prince."<br />
In a recent segment of ABC's Nightline with Ted Koppel, Ted Koppel mentioned Cyrus the<br />
Great, when he was talking about the new documentary film being made in his honor, <strong>and</strong><br />
had this to say of him:<br />
272
“Cyrus the Great is genuinely one of history's towering figures. America's own<br />
founders such as Thomas Jefferson were influenced by Cyrus the Great in the field of<br />
Human Rights.”<br />

172 "... unique system of organization used by Cyrus II..."<br />
"During his reign, Cyrus maintained control over a vast region of conquered kingdoms,<br />
achieved partly through retaining <strong>and</strong> exp<strong>and</strong>ing Median satrapies. Further organization of<br />
newly conquered territories into provinces ruled by vassal kings called satraps, was<br />
continued by Cyrus' successor Darius the Great. Cyrus' empire dem<strong>and</strong>ed only tribute<br />
<strong>and</strong> conscripts from many parts of the realm.<br />
Cyrus was distinguished equally as a statesman <strong>and</strong> as a soldier. By pursuing a<br />
policy of generosity instead of repression, <strong>and</strong> by favoring local religions, he was able<br />
to make his newly conquered subjects into enthusiastic supporters. Due in part to the<br />
political infrastructure he created, the Achaemenid empire endured long after his demise.<br />
<strong>The</strong> rise of Persia under Cyrus's rule had a profound impact on the course of world<br />
history. Persian philosophy, literature <strong>and</strong> religion all played dominant roles in world<br />
events for the next millennia. Despite the Islamic conquest of Persia in the 7th century CE<br />
by the Islamic Caliphate (Arab Empire), Persia continued to exercise enormous influence<br />
in the Middle East during the Islamic Golden Age."<br />

173 "... tree of life...."<br />
"Trees of life appear in folklore, culture <strong>and</strong> fiction, often relating to immortality. <strong>The</strong>se<br />
often hold cultural <strong>and</strong> religious significance to the peoples for whom they appear.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Sumerian (or Persian) Tree of Life was represented by a series of nodes <strong>and</strong> crisscrossing<br />
lines. It was an important religious symbol among these peoples, often attended<br />
to by Eagle Headed Gods & Priests, or the King himself.<br />
• In Chinese mythology a carving of a Tree of Life depicts a phoenix <strong>and</strong> a dragon -<br />
in Chinese mythology the dragon often represents immortality. <strong>The</strong>re is also the<br />
Taoist story of a tree that produces a peach every three thous<strong>and</strong> years. <strong>The</strong> one<br />
who eats the fruit receives immortality.<br />
• An archaeological discovery in the 1990s was of a sacrificial pit at Sanxingdui in<br />
Sechuan, China. Dating from about 1200 BCE, it contained 3 bronze trees, one<br />
of them 4 meters high. At the base was a dragon, <strong>and</strong> fruit hanging from the lower<br />
branches. At the top is a strange bird-like (phoenix) creature with claws. Also from<br />
Sechuan, from the late Han dynasty (c 25 - 220 CE) is another tree of life. <strong>The</strong><br />
ceramic base is guarded by a horned beast with wings. <strong>The</strong> leaves of the tree are<br />
coins <strong>and</strong> people.<br />
• In Egyptian mythology, in the Ennead system of Heliopolis, the first couple, apart<br />
from Shu & Tefnut (moisture & dryness) <strong>and</strong> Geb & Nuit (earth & sky), are Isis &<br />
Osiris. <strong>The</strong>y were said to have emerged from the acacia tree of Saosis, which the<br />
Egyptians considered the tree of life, referring to it as the "tree in which life<br />
<strong>and</strong> death are enclosed".<br />
273
• <strong>The</strong> Egyptian's Holy Sycamore also stood on the threshold of life <strong>and</strong> death,<br />
connecting the two worlds.<br />
• In Germanic paganism, trees played a prominent role, appearing in various<br />
aspects of surviving texts <strong>and</strong> possibly in the name of gods.<br />
• <strong>The</strong> tree of life appears in Norse religion as Yggdrasil, the world tree, a massive<br />
tree with extensive lore surrounding it. Perhaps related to the Yggdrasil, accounts<br />
have survived of Germanic Tribes honouring sacred trees within their societies.<br />
• In Norse Mythology it is the golden apples from Iðunn's tree that provides<br />
immortality for the gods.<br />
• <strong>The</strong> Tree of Life is mentioned in the Books of Genesis, in which it has the<br />
potential to grant immortality to Adam <strong>and</strong> Eve. (However, it is not immediately<br />
obvious, nor is it universally accepted, that the Book of Genesis account <strong>and</strong> the<br />
Book of Revelation account speak of the same Tree of Life.)<br />
• A Tree of Life, in the form of ten interconnected nodes, is an important part of<br />
the Kabbalah. As such, it resembles the ten Sephirot.<br />
• <strong>The</strong> Tree of Life appears in the Book of Mormon in a revelation to Lehi (see 1 Nephi<br />
8:10-12). It is symbolic of the love of God (see 1 Nephi 11:21-23), <strong>and</strong> sometimes<br />
understood as salvation <strong>and</strong> post-mortal existence.<br />
• Etz Chaim, Hebrew for "Tree of Life", is a common term used in Judaism. <strong>The</strong><br />
expression, found in the Book of Proverbs, is figuratively applied to the Torah itself.<br />
• Among pre-Columbian Mesoamerican cultures, the concept of "world trees" is a<br />
prevalent motif in Mesoamerican mythical cosmologies <strong>and</strong> iconography. World<br />
trees embodied the four cardinal directions, which represented also the fourfold<br />
nature of a central world tree, a symbolic axis mundi connecting the planes of<br />
the Underworld <strong>and</strong> the sky with that of the terrestrial world.<br />
• Depictions of world trees, both in their directional <strong>and</strong> central aspects, are found in<br />
the art <strong>and</strong> mythological traditions of cultures such as the Maya, Aztec,<br />
Izapan, Mixtec, Olmec, <strong>and</strong> others, dating to at least the Mid/Late Formative<br />
periods of Mesoamerican chronology.<br />
• Directional world trees are also associated with the four Year bearers in<br />
Mesoamerican calendars, <strong>and</strong> the directional colors <strong>and</strong> deities.<br />
• World trees are frequently depicted with birds in their branches, <strong>and</strong> their roots<br />
extending into earth or water (sometimes atop a "water-monster", symbolic of<br />
the underworld).<br />
• <strong>The</strong> central world tree has also been interpreted as a representation of the b<strong>and</strong><br />
of the Milky Way. Fragment of a bronze helmet from Urartu, with the "Tree of Life"<br />

• In ancient Armrenia around 13th to 6th century BC, the Tree of Life was a<br />
religious symbol, drawn onto the exterior walls of fortresses <strong>and</strong> carved on the<br />
armour of warriors. <strong>The</strong> branches of the tree were equally divided on the right <strong>and</strong><br />
left sides of the stem, with each branch having one leaf, <strong>and</strong> one leaf on the apex of<br />
the tree. Servants (some winged) stood on each side of the tree with one of their<br />
h<strong>and</strong>s up as if they are taking care of it. This tree can be found on numerous Urartu<br />
artifacts, such as paintings on the walls of the Erebuni fortress in Yerevan, Armenia.<br />
• <strong>The</strong> symbolism of the tree is mentioned in the 135th hymn of the 10th book of<br />
Rig-Veda, <strong>and</strong> in the 15th chapter of Bhagavad-gita (1-4).<br />
• In the Japanese religion of Shinto, trees were marked with sacred paper<br />
symbolizing lightning bolts, as trees were thought to be sacred. This was<br />
274
propagated by the fact that after they passed (died), ancestors <strong>and</strong> animals<br />
were often portrayed as branches on the tree.<br />
• <strong>The</strong> Book of One Thous<strong>and</strong> <strong>and</strong> One Nights has a story, '<strong>The</strong> Tale of Buluqiya',<br />
in which the hero searches for immortality <strong>and</strong> finds a paradise with jewelencrusted<br />
trees. Nearby is a Fountain of Youth guarded by Al-Khidr. Unable to<br />
defeat the guard, Buluqiya has to return empty-h<strong>and</strong>ed.<br />
• <strong>The</strong> Epic of Gilgamesh is a similar quest for immortality. In Mesopotamian<br />
mythology, Etana searches for a 'plant of birth' to provide him with a son. This has<br />
a solid provenance of antiquity, being found in cylinder seals from Akkad (2390 -<br />
2249 BCE).<br />
• One of the earliest forms of ancient Greek religion has its origins associated with<br />
tree cults.<br />
In mystical traditions of world religions, sacred texts are read for metaphorical content<br />
concerning the relationship between states of mind <strong>and</strong> the external experience of<br />
reality. As such, the tree is a manifestation/causal symbol - the Tree of Life representing<br />
the coveted state of eternal aliveness or fulfillment, not immortality of the body or<br />
soul. In such a state, physical death (which cannot be overcome) is nevertheless a<br />
choice, <strong>and</strong> direct experience of the perfect goodness/divine reality/god is not only<br />
possible, but ever present.<br />
Once the ego (surface consciousness) experiences shame, having been tempted to absorb<br />
or believe in duality (such as eating of the Tree of Knowledge of Good <strong>and</strong> Evil), we are<br />
protected from living eternally in that limiting, fallen, experience by the cherubim guarding<br />
the gate of return to paradise. <strong>The</strong> cherubim are symbolic of the perfect knowledge of<br />
self or true nature, with the power of purification <strong>and</strong> return to being."<br />

175 "... faravahar..."<br />
"<strong>The</strong> faravahar or farohar (transliteration varies) is one of the best-known symbols of<br />
Zoroastrianism.<br />
<strong>The</strong> winged disc has a long history in the art <strong>and</strong> culture of the ancient Near <strong>and</strong> Middle<br />
East. Historically, the symbol is influenced by the "winged sun" hieroglyph appearing on<br />
Bronze Age royal seals. While the symbol is currently thought to represent a Fravashi (c.<br />
a guardian angel) <strong>and</strong> from which it derives its name, what it represented in the minds of<br />
those who adapted it from earlier Mesopotamian <strong>and</strong> Egyptian reliefs is unclear. Because<br />
the symbol first appears on royal inscriptions, it is also thought to represent the 'Divine<br />
Royal Glory' (khvarenah), or the Fravashi of the king, or represented the divine m<strong>and</strong>ate<br />
that was the foundation of a king's authority.<br />
275
This relationship between the name of the symbol <strong>and</strong> the class of divine entities reflects<br />
the current belief that the symbol represents a Fravashi. However, there is no physical<br />
description of the Fravashis in the Avesta <strong>and</strong> in Avestan the entities are<br />
grammatically feminine.<br />
Prior to the reign of Darius I, the symbol did not have a human form above the wings.<br />
In present-day Zoroastrianism, the faravahar is said to be a reminder of one's purpose in<br />
life, which is to live in such a way that the soul progresses towards frasho-kereti, or<br />
union with Ahura Mazda."<br />

176 "...Oannes..."<br />
"Oannes was the name given by the Babylonian writer Berossus in the 3rd century BC to a<br />
mythical being who taught mankind wisdom. Berossus describes Oannes as having the body<br />
of a fish but underneath the figure of a man. He is described as dwelling in the Persian Gulf,<br />
<strong>and</strong> rising out of the waters in the daytime <strong>and</strong> furnishing mankind instruction in writing, the<br />
arts <strong>and</strong> the various sciences.<br />
Once thought to be based on the ancient Babylonian god Ea, it is now known that Oannes is<br />
in fact based on Uan (Adapa) - the first of the seven antediluvian sages or Abgallu (in<br />
Sumerian Ab=water, Gal=Great, Lu=man), who were sent by Ea to deliver the arts of<br />
civilization to mankind in ancient Sumerian mythology, at Eridu, the oldest city of Sumer."<br />

"Some members of the lost Battalion have been found in the oceans inhabiting the<br />
bodies of dolphins or whales."<br />
Dolphins have long played a role in human culture. Dolphins are common in Greek<br />
mythology <strong>and</strong> there are many coins from the time which feature a man or boy riding on the<br />
back of a dolphin. <strong>The</strong> Ancient Greeks treated them with welcome; a ship spotting dolphins<br />
riding in their wake was considered a good omen for a smooth voyage. Dolphins also seem<br />
to have been important to the Minoans, judging by artistic evidence from the ruined<br />
palace at Knossos. In Hindu mythology, the Ganges River Dolphin is associated with<br />
Ganga, the deity of the Ganges river.<br />
Dolphins are often regarded as one of <strong>Earth</strong>'s most intelligent animals, though it is hard<br />
to say just how intelligent dolphins are, as comparisons of species' relative intelligence<br />
are complicated by differences in sensory apparatus, response modes, <strong>and</strong> nature of<br />
cognition. Furthermore, the difficulty <strong>and</strong> expense of doing experimental work with large<br />
aquatics means that some tests which could yield meaningful results still have not been<br />
carried out, or have been carried out with inadequate sample size <strong>and</strong> methodology. Dolphin<br />
behavior has been studied extensively by humans however, both in captivity <strong>and</strong> in the wild."<br />

178 "... <strong>The</strong> Anunnaki..."<br />
"<strong>The</strong> Anunnaki are a group of Sumerian <strong>and</strong> Akkadian deities related to, <strong>and</strong> in some cases<br />
overlapping with, the Annuna (the 'Fifty Great Gods') <strong>and</strong> the Igigi (minor gods),<br />
276
meaning something to the effect of 'those of royal blood' or 'princely offspring' or<br />
"heaven <strong>and</strong> earth".<br />
<strong>The</strong> Annunaki appear in the Babylonian creation myth, Enuma Elish. In the late version<br />
magnifying Marduk, after the creation of mankind, Marduk divides the Anunnaki <strong>and</strong><br />
assigns them to their proper stations, three hundred in heaven, three hundred on the<br />
earth. <strong>The</strong> Anunnaki were the High Council of the Gods, <strong>and</strong> Anu's companions. <strong>The</strong>y<br />
were distributed through the <strong>Earth</strong> <strong>and</strong> the Underworld."<br />

179 "... flying on a "Winged-Disc". "<br />
"<strong>The</strong> winged sun is a symbol associated with divinity, royalty <strong>and</strong> power in the Ancient<br />
Near East (Egypt, Mesopotamia, Anatolia, <strong>and</strong> Persia). <strong>The</strong> symbol has also been found in<br />
the records of ancient cultures residing in various regions of South America as well as<br />
Australia.<br />
In Ancient Egypt, the symbol is attested from the Old Kingdom (Sneferu, 26th century BC),<br />
often flanked on either side with a uraeus. In early Egyptian religion, the symbol Behedeti<br />
represented Horus of Edfu, later identified with Ra-Harachte. It is sometimes depicted on the<br />
neck of Apis, the bull of Ptah. As time passed (according to interpretation) all of the<br />
subordinated gods of Egypt were considered to be aspects of the sun god, including e.g.<br />
Khepri.<br />
From roughly 2000 BC, the symbol spread to the Levant <strong>and</strong> to Mesopotamia. It appears in<br />
reliefs with Assyrian rulers <strong>and</strong> in Hieroglyphic Anatolian as a symbol for royalty,<br />
transcribed as literally, "his own self, the Sun". From ca. the 8th century BC, it appears on<br />
Hebrew seals, by now as a generic symbol for "power". <strong>The</strong> symbol evolved into the<br />
Faravahar (the "visual aspect of Ahura Mazda") in Zoroastrian Persia."<br />

180 "... he established a high st<strong>and</strong>ard of ethical, <strong>and</strong> humanitarian philosophy..."<br />
"Up to the time of the conquest of Media by Cyrus the Great, Median emperors ruled their<br />
conquered territories as provinces, through client kings <strong>and</strong> governors. One of the keys to<br />
the Achaemenid success (as with most enduring great empires) was their open<br />
attitude to the culture <strong>and</strong> religion of the conquered people, so ironically the Persian<br />
culture was the one most affected as the Great King endeavored to melt elements<br />
from all his subjects into a new imperial style."<br />

181 "... Teotihuacan..."<br />
"Several authors, including Zecharia Sitchin <strong>and</strong> Graham Hancock, have repeated each<br />
other’s argument that there are major correspondences between the pyramids of Gizeh <strong>and</strong><br />
those of Teotihuacan. <strong>The</strong> Pyramid of the Sun is 225m wide <strong>and</strong> 65 m high, constructed out<br />
of five successive layers of mud. Its ascent is via 242 stairs. <strong>The</strong> floor plan is rather close to<br />
that of the Pyramid of Khufu at Gizeh. <strong>The</strong> Pyramid of the Moon is much smaller: 42 m high<br />
<strong>and</strong> 150 m wide, yet its summit is as high as that of Sun, because it sits on the site’s highest<br />
277
point. This feature can also be seen in Gizeh, where Khufu’s <strong>and</strong> Khafre’s pyramid reach an<br />
equal height, even though one is taller than the other.<br />
<strong>The</strong> most obvious comparison, however, is that the layout of both the three pyramids at<br />
Gizeh <strong>and</strong> the three main structures of Teotihuacan represent the Belt of Orion. <strong>The</strong> Pyramid<br />
of the Moon compares with the smallest pyramid on the plateau, the Sun Pyramid with<br />
Khafre <strong>and</strong> the Temple of Quetzalcoatl, which has the largest ground plan, but never was<br />
built into a full pyramid, compares with that of Khufu.<br />
Though there are individual differences, I would suggest that the same ingredients have<br />
been used, answering to the same general ground plan: to represent the Belt of Orion, which<br />
in ancient Egypt was the symbol of Horus (not Osiris as Adrian Gilbert <strong>and</strong> Robert Bauval<br />
have argued) <strong>and</strong> in the Mayan culture was part of the creation mythology. Local legends<br />
stated that the complex was built to transform men into gods. For sure, an “alien space<br />
station” could be an interpretation of that, but it is clear that the answer needs to be located<br />
in the domain of religion.<br />
On May 17, ca. 150 AD, the Pleiades rose just before the Sun in the predawn skies. This<br />
synchronization, known as the heliacal rising of the Pleiades, only lasted approx. 100 year. It<br />
is now suggested that it was this event that was at the origin of Teotihuacan. <strong>The</strong> sun <strong>and</strong><br />
the Pleiades are important in the religious rituals. <strong>The</strong> Sun-Pleiades zenith conjunction<br />
marked what is known as the New Fire ceremony. Bernardino de Sahugun’s Aztec<br />
informants stated that the ceremony occurred at the end of every 52 year Calendar Round.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Aztecs <strong>and</strong> their predecessors had carefully observed the Pleiades, <strong>and</strong> on the<br />
expected night they were supposed to pass through the zenith, precisely at midnight, when<br />
the ceremony was performed."<br />

182 "... al-Hassan ibn-al-Sabbah..."<br />
"<strong>The</strong> story is that al-Hassan ibn-al-Sabbah used hashish to enlist the aid of young men into<br />
his private army known as assassins (aschishin - or follower of Hassan). One of the primary<br />
sources for this information comes from the writings of Marco Polo who visited the area in<br />
1273, almost 150 years after the reign of Al-Hassan.<br />
<strong>The</strong>re are many conflicting facts <strong>and</strong> sources for this information.<br />
In the early 11th century, al-Hassan became the head of the Persian sect of the Ismailians, a<br />
rather obscure party of fanatics which gained local power under his guidance. In 1090, al-<br />
Hassan <strong>and</strong> his followers seized the castle of Alamut, in the province of Rudbar, which lies in<br />
the mountainous region south of the Caspian Sea. It was from this mountain home that he<br />
obtained evil celebrity among the Crusaders as "the old man of the mountains", <strong>and</strong> spread<br />
terror through the Mohammedan world.<br />
In the account given by Marco Polo in "<strong>The</strong> Adventures [or Travels] of Marco Polo" it is told<br />
that "<strong>The</strong> Old Man kept at his court such boys of twelve years old as seemed to him destined<br />
to become courageous men. When the Old Man sent them into the garden in groups of four,<br />
ten or twenty, he gave them hashish to drink. <strong>The</strong>y slept for three days, then they were<br />
carried sleeping into the garden where he had them awakened.<br />
278
"When these young men woke, <strong>and</strong> found themselves in the garden with all these marvelous<br />
things, they truly believed themselves to be in paradise. And these damsels were always<br />
with them in songs <strong>and</strong> great entertainments; they; received everything they asked for, so<br />
that they would never have left that garden of their own will."<br />

183 "... Knights Templar..."<br />
"<strong>The</strong> Poor Fellow-Soldiers of Christ <strong>and</strong> of the Temple of Solomon commonly known as<br />
the Knights Templar were among the most famous of the Western Christian military orders.<br />
<strong>The</strong> organization existed for approximately two centuries in the Middle Ages. It was founded<br />
in the aftermath of the First Crusade of 1096 to ensure the safety of the many Europeans<br />
who made the pilgrimage to Jerusalem after its conquest.<br />
Around 1119, two veterans of the First Crusade, the French knight Hugues de Payens <strong>and</strong><br />
his relative Godfrey de Saint-Omer, proposed the creation of a monastic order for the<br />
protection of the pilgrims. King Baldwin II of Jerusalem agreed to their request, <strong>and</strong> gave<br />
them space for a headquarters on the Temple Mount, in the captured Al Aqsa Mosque. <strong>The</strong><br />
Temple Mount had a mystique, because it was above what was believed to be the ruins of<br />
the Temple of Solomon. <strong>The</strong> Crusaders therefore referred to the Al Aqsa Mosque as<br />
Solomon's Temple, <strong>and</strong> it was from this location that the Order took the name of Poor<br />
Knights of Christ <strong>and</strong> the Temple of Solomon, or "Templar" knights. <strong>The</strong> Order, with about<br />
nine knights, had few financial resources <strong>and</strong> relied on donations to survive. <strong>The</strong>ir emblem<br />
was of two knights riding on a single horse, emphasizing the Order's poverty.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Templars' impoverished status did not last long. <strong>The</strong>y had a powerful advocate in<br />
Bernard of Clairvaux, a leading Church figure <strong>and</strong> a nephew of one of the founding knights.<br />
He spoke <strong>and</strong> wrote persuasively on their behalf, <strong>and</strong> in 1129 at the Council of Troyes, the<br />
Order was officially endorsed by the Church. With this formal blessing, the Templars became<br />
a favored charity across Europe, receiving money, l<strong>and</strong>, businesses, <strong>and</strong> noble-born sons<br />
from families who were eager to help with the fight in the Holy L<strong>and</strong>. Another major benefit<br />
came in 1139, when Pope Innocent II's papal bull Omne Datum Optimum exempted the<br />
Order from obedience to local laws. This ruling meant that the Templars could pass freely<br />
through all borders, were not required to pay any taxes, <strong>and</strong> were exempt from all<br />
authority except that of the Pope.<br />
With its clear mission <strong>and</strong> ample resources, the Order grew rapidly. Templars were often the<br />
advance force in key battles of the Crusades, as the knights on their heavily armed<br />
warhorses would set out to gallop full speed at the enemy, in an attempt to break opposition<br />
lines. One of their most famous victories was in 1177 during the Battle of Montgisard, where<br />
some 500 Templar knights helped to defeat Saladin's army of more than 26,000 soldiers.<br />
Although the primary mission of the Order was military, relatively few members were<br />
combatants. <strong>The</strong> others acted in support positions to assist the knights <strong>and</strong> to<br />
manage the financial infrastructure. <strong>The</strong> Templar Order, though its members were<br />
sworn to individual poverty, was given control of wealth beyond direct donations. A<br />
nobleman who was interested in participating in the Crusades might place all his<br />
assets under Templar management while he was away. Accumulating wealth in this<br />
manner across Europe <strong>and</strong> the Outremer, the Order in 1150 began generating letters of<br />
credit for pilgrims journeying to the Holy L<strong>and</strong>: pilgrims deposited their valuables with a<br />
local Templar preceptory before embarking, received an encrypted document indicating<br />
279
the value of their deposit, then used that document upon arrival in the Holy L<strong>and</strong> to retrieve<br />
their funds. This innovative arrangement may have been the first formal system to<br />
support the use of cheques; it improved the safety of pilgrims by making them less<br />
attractive targets for thieves, <strong>and</strong> also contributed to the Templar coffers.<br />
Based on this mix of donations <strong>and</strong> business dealing, the Templar established financial<br />
networks across the whole of Christendom. <strong>The</strong>y acquired large tracts of l<strong>and</strong>, both in<br />
Europe <strong>and</strong> the Middle East; they bought <strong>and</strong> managed farms <strong>and</strong> vineyards; they built<br />
churches <strong>and</strong> castles; they were involved in manufacturing, import <strong>and</strong> export; they had their<br />
own fleet of ships; <strong>and</strong> at one point they even owned the entire isl<strong>and</strong> of Cyrprus. <strong>The</strong><br />
Templar arguably qualifies as the world's first multinational corporation."<br />
-- Reference: Wikipedia.org<br />
184<br />
" <strong>The</strong> Knights Templar were disb<strong>and</strong>ed by King Philip IV of France, who was<br />
deeply in debt to the Order."<br />
"King Philip was already deeply in debt to the Templars from his war with the English <strong>and</strong><br />
decided to seize upon the rumors for his own purposes. He began pressuring the Church to<br />
take action against the Order, as a way of freeing himself from his debts.<br />
On Friday October 13, 1307 (a date linked with the origin of the Friday the 13th<br />
superstition), Philip ordered de Molay <strong>and</strong> scores of other French Templars to be<br />
simultaneously arrested. <strong>The</strong> Templars were charged with numerous heresies <strong>and</strong> tortured<br />
to extract false confessions of blasphemy. <strong>The</strong> confessions, despite having been obtained<br />
under duress, caused a sc<strong>and</strong>al in Paris. After more bullying from Philip, Pope Clement then<br />
issued the bull Pastoralis Praeeminentiae on November 22, 1307, which instructed all<br />
Christian monarchs in Europe to arrest all Templars <strong>and</strong> seize their assets.<br />
Pope Clement called for papal hearings to determine the Templars' guilt or innocence, <strong>and</strong><br />
once freed of the Inquisitors' torture, many Templars recanted their confessions. Some had<br />
sufficient legal experience to defend themselves in the trials, but in 1310 Philip blocked this<br />
attempt, using the previously forced confessions to have dozens of Templars burned at the<br />
stake in Paris.<br />
With the last of the Order's leaders gone, the remaining Templars around Europe were<br />
either arrested <strong>and</strong> tried under the Papal investigation (with virtually none convicted),<br />
absorbed into other military orders such as the Knights Hospitaller, or pensioned <strong>and</strong><br />
allowed to live out their days peacefully. Some may have fled to other territories outside<br />
Papal control, such as excommunicated Scotl<strong>and</strong> or to Switzerl<strong>and</strong>.<br />
It is estimated that at the Order's peak there were between 15,000 <strong>and</strong> 20,000<br />
Templars, of whom about a tenth were actual knights."<br />

centre vulnerable to the layering <strong>and</strong> integration stages of money laundering; despite<br />
significant legislation <strong>and</strong> reporting requirements, secrecy rules persist <strong>and</strong><br />
nonresidents are permitted to conduct business through offshore entities <strong>and</strong> various<br />
intermediaries..."<br />
In 1998, an international panel of historians released a study that claimed a significant<br />
amount of gold had been stolen from Holocaust victims, as well as the treasuries of<br />
conquered countries, <strong>and</strong> deposited in the Swiss National Bank. <strong>The</strong> panel found that,<br />
despite evidence of theft <strong>and</strong> wrongful acquisition of the gold, the SNB continued to accept<br />
the deposits. In 2000, a United States District Court judge approved a US$1.85 billion<br />
settlement between several Swiss banks <strong>and</strong> Holocaust victims."<br />

186 "A primary influence of "Old Empire" operatives is on international bankers..."<br />
EDITOR'S NOTE: <strong>The</strong> most famous example of this kind of activity is the "Bilderberg<br />
Conference". See the following reference to this organization from Wikipedia.org:<br />
"<strong>The</strong> Bilderberg Group or Bilderberg conference is an unofficial annual invitation-only<br />
conference of around 130 guests, most of whom are persons of influence in the fields of<br />
business, media <strong>and</strong> politics.<br />
<strong>The</strong> elite group meets annually at luxury hotels or resorts throughout the world — normally<br />
in Europe — <strong>and</strong> once every four years in the United States or Canada. It has an office in<br />
Leiden, South Holl<strong>and</strong>, Netherl<strong>and</strong>s. <strong>The</strong> 2007 conference took place from May 31 to June 3<br />
at the Ritz-Carlton Hotel in Istanbul, Turkey.<br />
Attendees of Bilderberg include central bankers, defense experts, mass media press<br />
barons, government ministers, prime ministers, royalty, international financiers <strong>and</strong><br />
political leaders from Europe <strong>and</strong> North America.<br />
Some of the Western world's leading financiers <strong>and</strong> foreign policy strategists attend<br />
Bilderberg. Donald Rumsfeld is an active Bilderberger, as is Peter Sutherl<strong>and</strong> from Irel<strong>and</strong>,<br />
a former European Union commissioner <strong>and</strong> chairman of Goldman Sachs <strong>and</strong> of British<br />
Petroleum. Rumsfeld <strong>and</strong> Sutherl<strong>and</strong> served together in 2000 on the board of the<br />
Swedish/Swiss engineering company ABB. Former U.S. Deputy Defense Secretary <strong>and</strong><br />
former World Bank head Paul Wolfowitz is also a member. <strong>The</strong> group's current chairman<br />
is Etienne Davignon, the Belgian businessman <strong>and</strong> politician.<br />
Critics say the Bilderberg Group promotes the careers of politicians whose views are<br />
representative of the interests of multinational corporations, at the expense of<br />
democracy.<br />
<strong>The</strong> group's secrecy <strong>and</strong> its connections to power elites has provided fodder for many who<br />
believe that the group is part of a conspiracy to create a New World Order.<br />
281
Radio host Alex Jones promotes the theory that the group intends to dissolve the<br />
sovereignty of the United States <strong>and</strong> other countries into a supra-national structure similar to<br />
the European Union. Madrid-based author Daniel Estulin claims that the long-term purpose<br />
of Bilderberg is to "Build a One-World Empire". He states the group "is not the end but the<br />
means to a future One World Government". Another opponent of the group, Tony Gosling,<br />
has registered the domain name Bilderberg.org, largely hosting material critical of<br />
Bilderberg.<br />
Reporter Jonathan Duffy, writing in BBC News Online Magazine states "In the void created<br />
by such aloofness, an extraordinary conspiracy theory has grown up around the group that<br />
alleges the fate of the world is largely decided by Bilderberg."<br />

(EDITOR'S NOTE: An excellent modern example of this activity has been documented in<br />
the World War II financing of Nazis by (Prescott Bush, Director of Union Banking<br />
Corp.) the patriarch of President George Bush <strong>and</strong> his son, President George W.<br />
Bush.:<br />
"On October 20, 1942, the U.S. government ordered the seizure of Nazi German banking<br />
operations in New York City that were being conducted by Prescott Bush, the father of<br />
former president George Herbert Walker Bush.<br />
Harriman Bank was the main Wall Street connection for several German companies <strong>and</strong> the<br />
varied U.S. financial interests of Fritz Thyssen. Thyssen had been an early financial backer<br />
of the Nazi party until 1938, but by 1939 had fled Germany <strong>and</strong> was bitterly denouncing<br />
Hitler. He was later jailed by the Nazis for his opposition to the regime. Business<br />
transactions with Germany were not illegal when Hitler declared war on the United States on<br />
December 11, 1941, but, six days after the attack on Pearl Harbor, President Franklin<br />
Delano Roosevelt signed the Trading With the Enemy Act after it had been made public that<br />
U.S. companies were doing business with the declared enemy of the United States.<br />
On October 20, 1942, the U.S. government ordered the seizure of German banking<br />
operations in New York City. Roosevelt's Alien Property Custodian, Leo T. Crowley, signed<br />
Vesting Order Number 248 seizing Bush's property under the Trading with the Enemy Act.<br />
<strong>The</strong> order cited only the Union Banking Corporation (UBC), of which Bush was a director<br />
<strong>and</strong> held one share, which had connections with a Dutch bank owned by Thyssen.<br />
Fox News has reported that recently declassified material reveals that the 4,000 Union<br />
Banking shares owned by the Dutch bank were registered in the names of the seven U.S.<br />
directors, according to a document signed by Homer Jones, chief of the division of<br />
investigation <strong>and</strong> research of the Office of Alien Property Custodian, a World War II-era<br />
agency. By 1941 Thyssen no longer had control over his banking empire, which was in the<br />
h<strong>and</strong>s of the Nazi government.<br />
• E. Rol<strong>and</strong> Harriman – 3991 shares (managed <strong>and</strong> under voting control of<br />
Prescott Bush)<br />
• Cornelis Lievense – 4 shares (He was the New York banker of the Nazi Party)<br />
282
• Harold D. Pennington – 1 share (Employed by Prescott Bush at Brown Brothers<br />
Harriman)<br />
• Ray Morris – 1 share (a business partner of the Bush <strong>and</strong> Harriman families)<br />
• Prescott S. Bush – 1 share (director of UBC, which was co-founded <strong>and</strong><br />
sponsored by his father-in-law George Walker; senior managing partner for E.<br />
Rol<strong>and</strong> Harriman <strong>and</strong> Averell Harriman)<br />
• H.J. Kouwenhoven – 1 share (organized UBC for Von Thyssen, managed UBC in<br />
Nazi occupied Netherl<strong>and</strong>s)<br />
• Johann G. Groeninger – 1 share (German Industrial Executive, a not unimportant<br />
member of the Nazi party)<br />
Both E. Rol<strong>and</strong> Harriman <strong>and</strong> Prescott Bush were members of Skull <strong>and</strong> Bones as well<br />
as being members of the board of Brown Brothers Harriman & Co..<br />
<strong>The</strong> Harriman business interests seized under the act in October <strong>and</strong> November 1942<br />
included:<br />
• Union Banking Corporation (UBC) (for Thyssen <strong>and</strong> Brown Brothers Harriman). <strong>The</strong><br />
President of UBC at that time was George Herbert Walker, Bush's father-in-law.<br />
• Dutch-American Trading Corporation (with Harriman)<br />
• the Seamless Steel Equipment Corporation (with Harriman)<br />
• Silesian-American Corporation (this company was partially owned by a German<br />
entity; during the war the Germans tried to take full control of Silesian-American. In<br />
response to that, the American government seized German owned minority shares<br />
in the company, leaving the U.S. partners to carry on the business.)<br />
<strong>The</strong> assets were held by the government for the duration of the war, then returned afterward.<br />
UBC was dissolved in 1951. Bush was on the board of directors of UBC <strong>and</strong> held one<br />
share in the company. For it, he was reimbursed $1,500,000.(a huge amount of money<br />
at the time - but there is no documentary evidence to support this claim) <strong>The</strong>se<br />
supposed assets were later used to launch Bush family investments in the Texas<br />
energy industry.<br />
Toby Rogers has claimed that Bush's connections to Silesian businesses (with Thyssen <strong>and</strong><br />
Flick) make him complicit with the mining operations in Nazi-occupied Pol<strong>and</strong> which used<br />
slave labor out of Oświęcim, where the Auschwitz concentration camp was later constructed.<br />
<strong>The</strong> New York Herald-Tribune referred to Thyssen as "Hitler's Angel" <strong>and</strong> mentioned<br />
Bush as an employee of the investment banking firm Thyssen used in the United<br />
States. Some records in the National Archives, including the Harriman papers, document<br />
the continued relationship of Brown Brothers Harriman with Thyssen <strong>and</strong> some of his<br />
German investments up until his 1951 death. Investigator John Loftus has said, "As a<br />
former federal prosecutor, I would make a case for Prescott Bush, his father-in-law<br />
(George Walker) <strong>and</strong> Averell Harriman [to be prosecuted] for giving aid <strong>and</strong> comfort to<br />
the enemy. <strong>The</strong>y remained on the boards of these companies knowing that they were<br />
of financial benefit to the nation of Germany."<br />
Two former slave laborers from Pol<strong>and</strong> have filed suit in London against the<br />
government of the United States <strong>and</strong> the heirs of Prescott Bush in the amount of $40<br />
billion. A class-action lawsuit filed in the U.S. in 2001 was dismissed based on the principle<br />
of state sovereignty.<br />
283
Prescott Bush connection to the Merchants of Death industry came from his father Samuel<br />
P. Bush who worked for Buckeye Steel Castings Company which manufactured railway<br />

"<strong>The</strong> Secret War Against the Jews, Unholy Trinity (By Mark Aarons, John Loftus) tells<br />
one of the darkest tales of World War II. After the war had ended, fearing a surge of Soviet<br />
growth, the Papacy entered into an espionage alliance with British <strong>and</strong> American intelligence<br />
agents. Subsuming justice to the nascent Cold War ideology, these three powers ferreted<br />
Nazi criminals out of Europe so that they could be used in the supposedly greater fight<br />
against Communism. <strong>The</strong> Vatica's Nazi smuggling network was penetrated by Prince Anton<br />
Turkul, the great Soviet double agent who turned the operations into a sting for his masters<br />
in the Kremlin. Unholy Trinity exposes Turkul's "Red Nazi" operation for the first time <strong>and</strong><br />
shows how Kim Philby, the infamous British-Soviet double agent, <strong>and</strong> his network were<br />
nearly sacrificed to preserve Turkul's Vatican operation. Exploring the Vatican's role in aiding<br />
Nazi criminals to escape punishment for their crimes, this book, originally published in 1991,<br />
first revealed the Vatican--Swiss bank connection to Nazi gold <strong>and</strong> documented the hidden<br />
links to Western investors in Nazi Germany. Since 1991, major revelations about the role of<br />
Swiss banks have confirmed Unholy Trinity's expose of the flight of the Nazi's stolen<br />
treasures; the new introduction <strong>and</strong> new final chapters, written by Aarons <strong>and</strong> Loftus for this<br />
edition, bring the book completely up to date <strong>and</strong> show how the media have missed the vital<br />
Vatican connection in the Swiss-bank story. Among other things, the authors demonstrate<br />
that U.S. <strong>and</strong> British code-breakers were fully aware of the Holocaust as early as 1941 but<br />
lied to the Western press; that the code-breakers bugged the Swiss banks <strong>and</strong> then buried<br />
secrets of Nazi gold transfers to protect U.S. intelligence chief Allen Dulles; <strong>and</strong> that the<br />
Australian, British, <strong>and</strong> Canadian governments are still waging a campaign to keep their<br />
citizens ignorant about the Nazi war criminals living among them. Covers all these topics <strong>and</strong><br />
more, Unholy Trinity is the definitive history of a series of profoundly disturbing cover-ups<br />
involving the Holy See, Allen Dulles, the Swiss banks, <strong>and</strong> the remnants of the Third Reich."<br />

188 "...Bloodletting..."<br />
"Bloodletting is one of the oldest medical practices, having been practiced among diverse<br />
ancient peoples, including the Mesopotamians, the Egyptians, the Greeks, the Mayans, <strong>and</strong><br />
the Aztecs. In Greece, bloodletting was in use around the time of Hippocrates, who mentions<br />
bloodletting but in general relied on dietary techniques. Erasistratus, however, theorized that<br />
many diseases were caused by plethoras, or overabundances, in the blood, <strong>and</strong> advised<br />
that these plethoras be treated, initially, by exercise, sweating, reduced food intake, <strong>and</strong><br />
vomiting. Herophilus advocated bloodletting. Archagathus, one of the first Greek physicians<br />
to practice in Rome, practiced bloodletting extensively <strong>and</strong> gained a most sanguinary<br />
reputation.<br />
<strong>The</strong> popularity of bloodletting in Greece was reinforced by the ideas of Galen, after he<br />
discovered the veins <strong>and</strong> arteries were filled with blood, not air as was commonly believed at<br />
the time. <strong>The</strong>re were two key concepts in his system of bloodletting. <strong>The</strong> first was that blood<br />
was created <strong>and</strong> then used up, it did not circulate <strong>and</strong> so it could 'stagnate' in the<br />
extremities. <strong>The</strong> second was that humoral balance was the basis of illness or health, the four<br />
humours being blood, phlegm, black bile, <strong>and</strong> yellow bile, relating to the four Greek classical<br />
elements of air, water, earth <strong>and</strong> fire. Galen believed that blood was the dominant humour<br />
<strong>and</strong> the one in most need of control. In order to balance the humours, a physician would<br />
either remove 'excess' blood (plethora) from the patient or give them an emetic to induce<br />
vomiting, or a diuretic to induce urination.<br />
Bloodletting was especially popular in the young United States of America, where Benjamin<br />
Rush (a signatory of the Declaration of Independence) saw the state of the arteries as the<br />
key to disease, recommending levels of blood-letting that were high, even for the time.<br />
George Washington was treated in this manner following a horseback riding accident:<br />
almost 4 pounds (1.7 litres) of blood was withdrawn, contributing to his death by throat<br />
infection in 1799."<br />

"<strong>The</strong> Vedas (Sanskrit véda वेद "knowledge") are a large corpus of texts originating in Ancient<br />
India. <strong>The</strong>y form the oldest layer of Sanskrit literature <strong>and</strong> the oldest sacred texts of<br />
Hinduism. According to Hindu tradition, the Vedas are "not human compositions", being<br />
supposed to have been directly revealed, <strong>and</strong> thus are called śruti ("what is heard"). Vedic<br />
mantras are recited at Hindu prayers, religious functions <strong>and</strong> other auspicious occasions.<br />
Philosophies <strong>and</strong> sects that developed in the Indian subcontinent have taken differing<br />
positions on the Vedas. Schools of Indian philosophy which cite the Vedas as their scriptural<br />
authority are classified as "orthodox" (āstika). Other traditions, notably Buddhism <strong>and</strong><br />
Jainism, though they are (like the vedanta) similarly concerned with liberation did not regard<br />
the Vedas as divine ordinances but rather human expositions of the sphere of higher<br />
spiritual knowledge, hence not sacrosanct."<br />

190 "... the IS-BE who wrote a fictitious story one dark <strong>and</strong> stormy night..."<br />
Frankenstein: or, <strong>The</strong> Modern Prometheus is a novel written by the British author Mary<br />
Shelley. Shelley wrote the novel when she was 18 years old. <strong>The</strong> first edition was<br />
published anonymously in London in 1818. Shelley's name appears on the revised third<br />
edition, published in 1831. <strong>The</strong> title of the novel refers to a scientist, Victor Frankenstein,<br />
who learns how to create life <strong>and</strong> creates a being in the likeness of man, but larger than<br />
average <strong>and</strong> more powerful.<br />
<strong>The</strong> story has had an influence across literature <strong>and</strong> popular culture <strong>and</strong> spawned a<br />
complete genre of horror stories <strong>and</strong> films. It is arguably considered the first fully<br />
realized science fiction novel. <strong>The</strong> novel raises many issues that can be linked to<br />
today's society.<br />
During the rainy summer of 1816, the "Year Without a Summer," the world was locked<br />
in a long cold volcanic winter caused by the eruption of Mount Tambora in 1815. Mary<br />
Wollstonecraft Godwin, age 19, <strong>and</strong> her lover (<strong>and</strong> later husb<strong>and</strong>) Percy Bysshe Shelley,<br />
visited Lord Byron at the Villa Diodati by Lake Geneva in Switzerl<strong>and</strong>. <strong>The</strong> weather was<br />
consistently too cold <strong>and</strong> dreary that summer to enjoy the outdoor holiday activities they had<br />
planned, so the group retired indoors until almost dawn talking about science <strong>and</strong> the<br />
supernatural. After reading Fantasmagoriana, an anthology of German ghost stories,<br />
they challenged one another to each compose a story of their own, the contest being<br />
won by whoever wrote the scariest tale.<br />
Mary conceived an idea after she fell into a waking dream or nightmare during which<br />
she saw "the pale student of unhallowed arts kneeling beside the thing he had put<br />
together." Byron managed to write just a fragment based on the vampire legends he heard<br />
while travelling the Balkans, <strong>and</strong> from this Polidori created <strong>The</strong> Vampyre (1819), the<br />
progenitor of the romantic vampire literary genre. Two legendary horror tales originated from<br />
this one circumstance.<br />
Radu Florescu, in his book In Search of Frankenstein, argued that Mary <strong>and</strong> Percy Shelley<br />
visited Castle Frankenstein on their way to Switzerl<strong>and</strong>, near Darmstadt along the Rhine,<br />
where a notorious alchemist named Konrad Dippel had experimented with human bodies."<br />

191 "...Grimm's Fairy Tales..."<br />
"<strong>The</strong> world famous collection of German origin fairy tales Kinder- und Hausmärchen (KHM;<br />
English: Children's <strong>and</strong> Household Tales), commonly known as Grimm's Fairy Tales, was<br />
first published in 1812 by Jacob <strong>and</strong> Wilhelm Grimm, the Brothers Grimm. <strong>The</strong> brothers<br />
developed an interest in ancient fairy tales. <strong>The</strong>y started to collect <strong>and</strong> write down tales that<br />
they alleged had been h<strong>and</strong>ed down for generations. On December 20, 1812 they published<br />
the first volume of the first edition, containing 86 stories; the second volume of 70 stories<br />
followed in 1814.<br />
<strong>The</strong> first volumes were much criticized because, although they were called "Children's<br />
Tales", they were not regarded as suitable for children, both for the scholarly information<br />
included <strong>and</strong> the subject matter. Many changes through the editions—such as turning the<br />
wicked mother of the first edition in Snow White <strong>and</strong> Hansel <strong>and</strong> Gretel to a stepmother,<br />
were probably made with an eye to such suitability. <strong>The</strong>y removed sexual references, such<br />
as Rapunzel's betraying the prince by asking why her clothing no longer fit, <strong>and</strong> so revealing<br />
her pregnancy, but in many respects, violence, particularly when punishing villains, was<br />
increased.<br />
<strong>The</strong> influence of these books was widespread. It ranks behind only the Bible <strong>and</strong> the works<br />
of William Shakespeare in sales. W. H. Auden praised it, during World War II, as one of the<br />
founding works of Western culture. <strong>The</strong> tales themselves have been put to many uses. <strong>The</strong><br />
Nazis praised them as folkish tales showing children with sound racial instincts seeking<br />
racially pure marriage partners, <strong>and</strong> so strongly that the Allied forces warned against them.<br />
Writers about the Holocaust have combined the tales with their memoirs."<br />

192 "...Hinduism..."<br />
"Hinduism is often referred to as Sanātana Dharma, a Sanskrit phrase meaning "the eternal<br />
path" or "the eternal law".<br />
Hinduism is the world's oldest major religion that is still practiced. Its earliest origins can be<br />
traced to the ancient Vedic civilization. A conglomerate of diverse beliefs <strong>and</strong> traditions,<br />
Hinduism has no single founder. It is the world's third largest religion following Christianity<br />
<strong>and</strong> Islam, with approximately a billion adherents, of whom about 905 million live in India <strong>and</strong><br />
Nepal.<br />
Hinduism is an extremely diverse religion. Although some tenets of the faith are accepted by<br />
most Hindus, scholars have found it difficult to identify any doctrines with universal<br />
acceptance among all denominations. Prominent themes in Hindu beliefs include Dharma<br />
(ethics/duties), Samsāra (<strong>The</strong> continuing cycle of birth, life, death <strong>and</strong> rebirth), Karma (action<br />
<strong>and</strong> subsequent reaction), Moksha (liberation from samsara), <strong>and</strong> the various Yogas (paths<br />
or practices).<br />
Hinduism is a diverse system of thought with beliefs spanning monotheism, polytheism,<br />
panentheism, pantheism, monism <strong>and</strong> atheism. It is sometimes referred to as henotheistic<br />
(devotion to a single God while accepting the existence of other gods), but any such term is<br />
an oversimplification of the complexities <strong>and</strong> variations of belief.<br />
287
Most Hindus believe that the spirit or soul—the true "self" of every person, called the<br />
ātman—is eternal."<br />

193 "... Arcadia Regeneration Company".<br />
"One of the birthplaces reported for Zeus is Mount Lycaeum in Arcadia. Lycaon, a<br />
cannibalistic Pelasgian king, was transformed into a werewolf by Zeus. Lycaon's daughter<br />
was Callisto. It was also said to have been the birthplace of Zeus' son, Hermes.<br />
Arcadia remained a rustic, secluded area, <strong>and</strong> its inhabitants became proverbial as primitive<br />
herdsmen leading simple pastoral unsophisticated yet happy lives, to the point that Arcadia<br />
may refer to some imaginary idyllic paradise.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Latin phrase Et in Arcadia ego which is usually interpreted to mean "I am also in<br />
Arcadia" or "I am even in Arcadia" is an example of memento mori, a cautionary<br />
reminder of the transitory nature of life <strong>and</strong> the inevitability of death. <strong>The</strong> phrase is<br />
most often associated with a 1647 painting by Nicolas Poussin, also known as "<strong>The</strong><br />
Arcadian Shepherds". In the painting the phrase appears as an inscription on a tomb<br />
discovered by youthful figures in classical garb. It has been suggested that the phrase is an<br />
anagram for the Latin phrase "I! Tego arcana Dei", which translates to "Begone! I keep<br />
God's secrets."<br />

Molecular analysis of conserved sequences in the ribosomal RNAs of modern organisms<br />
reveals a three-domain phylogeny that converges in a universal ancestor for all life.<br />
We used the Clusters of Orthologous Groups database <strong>and</strong> information from published<br />
genomes to search for other universally conserved genes that have the same phylogenetic<br />
pattern as ribosomal RNA, <strong>and</strong> therefore constitute the ancestral genetic core of cells.<br />
Our analyses identified a small set of genes that can be traced back to the universal<br />
ancestor <strong>and</strong> have coevolved since that time.<br />
As indicated by earlier studies, almost all of these genes are involved with the transfer of<br />
genetic information, <strong>and</strong> most of them directly interact with the ribosome. Other universal<br />
genes have either undergone lateral transfer in the past, or have diverged so much in<br />
sequence that their distant past could not be resolved. <strong>The</strong> nature of the conserved genes<br />
suggests innovations that may have been essential to the divergence of the three<br />
domains of life. <strong>The</strong> analysis also identified several genes of unknown function with<br />

phylogenies that track with the ribosomal RNA genes. <strong>The</strong> products of these genes are likely<br />

"Biomedical engineering is an application of engineering principles <strong>and</strong> design to<br />
challenges in human health <strong>and</strong> medicine. Bioengineering is related to Biological<br />
Engineering, the latter including applications of engineering principles to the full spectrum of<br />
living systems, from microbes <strong>and</strong> plants to ecosystems. Bioengineering exploits new<br />
developments in molecular biology, biochemistry, microbiology, <strong>and</strong> neurosciences as well<br />
as sensing, electronics, <strong>and</strong> imaging, <strong>and</strong> applies them to the design of medical devices,<br />
diagnostic equipment, biocompatible materials, <strong>and</strong> other important medical needs.<br />
Bioengineering couples engineering expertise with knowledge in biological sciences such as<br />
genetics, molecular biology, protein chemistry, cytology, neurobiology, immunology,<br />

196 "... Imperfections were worked out, modifications made <strong>and</strong> eventually the new<br />
animal was introduced into the actual planetary environment for final testing. "<br />
"<strong>The</strong> basic ideals of Eugenics can be found from the beginnings of Western civilization. <strong>The</strong><br />
philosophy was most famously expounded by Plato, who believed human reproduction<br />
should be monitored <strong>and</strong> controlled by the state. <strong>The</strong> basic eugenic principle from Plato’s<br />
<strong>The</strong> Republic was, “<strong>The</strong> best men must have intercourse with the best women as frequently<br />
as possible, <strong>and</strong> the opposite is true of the very inferior.<br />
However, Plato understood this form of government control would not be readily accepted,<br />
<strong>and</strong> proposed the truth be concealed from the public via a fixed lottery. Mates, in Plato’s<br />
Republic, would be chosen by a “marriage number” in which the quality of the individual<br />
would be quantitatively analyzed, <strong>and</strong> persons of high numbers would be allowed to<br />
procreate with other persons of high numbers. In theory, this would lead to predictable<br />
results <strong>and</strong> the improvement of the human race. However, Plato acknowledged the failure of<br />
the “marriage number” since “gold soul” persons could still produce “bronze soul” children.<br />
This might have been one of the earliest attempts to mathematically analyze genetic<br />
inheritance, which was not perfected until the development of Mendelian genetics <strong>and</strong> the<br />
mapping of the human genome.<br />
Other ancient civilizations, such as Rome <strong>and</strong> Sparta, practiced infanticide as a form of<br />
phenotypic selection. In Sparta, newborns were inspected by the city's elders, who decided<br />
the fate of the infant. If the child was deemed incapable of living, it was usually thrown from<br />
the Taygetus mountain. It was more common for girls than boys to be killed this way. Trials<br />
289
for babies which included bathing them in wine <strong>and</strong> exposing them to the elements. To<br />
Sparta, this would ensure only the strongest survived <strong>and</strong> procreated. Adolf Hitler<br />
considered Sparta to be the first "Völkisch State," <strong>and</strong> much like Ernst Haeckel before him,<br />
praised Sparta due to its primitive form of eugenics practice of selective infanticide policy<br />
which was applied on deformed children.<br />
<strong>The</strong> 12 Tables of Roman Law, established early in the formation of the Roman Republic,<br />
stated in the fourth table that deformed children would be put to death. In addition, patriarchs<br />
in Roman society were given the right to "discard" infants at their discretion. This was often<br />
done by drowning undesired newborns in the Tiber River.<br />
Sir Francis Galton initially developed the ideas of eugenics using social statistics. Sir<br />
Francis Galton systematized these ideas <strong>and</strong> practices according to new knowledge about<br />
the evolution of man <strong>and</strong> animals provided by the theory of his cousin Charles Darwin during<br />
the 1860s <strong>and</strong> 1870s. After reading Darwin's Origin of Species, Galton built upon Darwin's<br />
ideas whereby the mechanisms of natural selection were potentially thwarted by human<br />
civilization. He reasoned that, since many human societies sought to protect the<br />
underprivileged <strong>and</strong> weak, those societies were at odds with the natural selection<br />
responsible for extinction of the weakest; <strong>and</strong> only by changing these social policies could<br />
society be saved from a "reversion towards mediocrity," a phrase he first coined in statistics<br />
<strong>and</strong> which later changed to the now common "regression towards the mean."<br />

197 "...species..."<br />
"In biology, a species is one of the basic units of biological classification <strong>and</strong> a taxonomic<br />
rank. A species is often defined as a group of organisms capable of interbreeding <strong>and</strong><br />
producing fertile offspring. While in many cases this definition is adequate, more precise or<br />
differing measures are often used, such as based on similarity of DNA or morphology.<br />
Presence of specific locally-adapted traits may further subdivide species into subspecies.<br />
<strong>The</strong> commonly used names for plant <strong>and</strong> animal taxa sometimes correspond to species: for<br />
example, "lion," "walrus," <strong>and</strong> "Camphor tree," each refers to a species. In other cases<br />
common names do not: for example, "deer" refers to a family of 34 species, including Eld's<br />
Deer, Red Deer <strong>and</strong> Wapiti (Elk). <strong>The</strong> last two species were once considered a single<br />
species, illustrating how species boundaries may change with increased scientific<br />
knowledge.<br />
Each species is placed within a single genus. This is a hypothesis that the species is more<br />
closely related to other species within its genus than to species of other genera. All species<br />
are given a binomial name consisting of the generic name <strong>and</strong> specific name (or specific<br />
epithet). For example, Pinus palustris (commonly known as the Longleaf Pine).<br />
A usable definition of the word "species" <strong>and</strong> reliable methods of identifying particular<br />
species are essential for stating <strong>and</strong> testing biological theories <strong>and</strong> for measuring<br />
biodiversity. Traditionally, multiple examples of a proposed species must be studied for<br />
unifying characters before it can be regarded as a species. Extinct species known only from<br />
fossils are generally difficult to give precise taxonomic rankings to. A species which has<br />
been described scientifically can be referred to by its binomial names.<br />
Nevertheless, as Charles Darwin remarked,<br />
290
'I look at the term species as one arbitrarily given for the sake of convenience to a<br />
set of individuals closely resembling each other .... it does not essentially differ from<br />
the term variety, which is given to less distinct <strong>and</strong> more fluctuating forms. <strong>The</strong> term<br />
variety, again in comparison with mere individual difference, is also applied<br />
arbitrarily, <strong>and</strong> for mere convenience sake.'<br />
Because of the difficulties with both defining <strong>and</strong> tallying the total numbers of different<br />
species in the world, it is estimated that there are anywhere between 2 million <strong>and</strong> 100<br />
million different species."<br />

198 "...species of beetle..."<br />
"Beetles are a group of insects which have the largest number of species. <strong>The</strong>y are placed<br />
in the order Coleoptera, which means "sheathed wing" <strong>and</strong> contains more described species<br />
than in any other order in the animal kingdom, constituting about twenty-five percent of all<br />
known life-forms. Forty percent of all described insect species are beetles (about 350,000<br />
species), <strong>and</strong> new species are frequently discovered. Estimates put the total number of<br />
species, described <strong>and</strong> undescribed, at between 5 <strong>and</strong> 8 million.<br />
Beetles can be found in almost all habitats, but are not known to occur in the sea or in the<br />
polar regions. <strong>The</strong>y interact with their ecosystems in several ways. <strong>The</strong>y often feed on plants<br />
<strong>and</strong> fungi, break down animal <strong>and</strong> plant debris, <strong>and</strong> eat other invertebrates. Some species<br />
are prey of various animals including birds <strong>and</strong> mammals. Certain species are agricultural<br />
pests, such as the Colorado potato beetle Leptinotarsa decemlineata, the boll weevil<br />
Anthonomus gr<strong>and</strong>is, the red flour beetle Tribolium castaneum, <strong>and</strong> the mungbean or<br />
cowpea beetle Callosobruchus maculatus, while other species of beetles are important<br />
controls of agricultural pests. For example, coccinellidae ("ladybirds" or "ladybugs") consume<br />
aphids, scale insects, thrips, <strong>and</strong> other plant-sucking insects that damage crops."<br />

199 "One species does not evolve to become another species, as the <strong>Earth</strong> textbooks<br />
indicate, without the intervention <strong>and</strong> manipulation of genetic material by an IS-BE."<br />
"Genetic engineering, recombinant DNA technology, genetic modification /<br />
manipulation (GM) <strong>and</strong> gene splicing are terms applied to the direct manipulation of an<br />
organism's genes. Genetic engineering is not to be confused with traditional breeding where<br />
the organism's genes are manipulated indirectly. Genetic engineering uses the techniques of<br />
molecular cloning <strong>and</strong> transformation. Genetic engineering endeavors have found some<br />
success in improving crop technology, the manufacture of synthetic human insulin through<br />
the use of modified bacteria, the manufacture of erythropoietin in Chinese hamster ovary<br />
cells, <strong>and</strong> the production of new types of experimental mice such as the oncomouse (cancer<br />
mouse) for research.<br />
Since a protein sequence is specified by a segment of DNA called a gene, novel versions of<br />
that protein can be produced by changing the DNA sequence of the gene. <strong>The</strong> companies<br />
that own the modified genome are able to patent it. In the case of basic crops, the<br />
companies gain control of foodstuffs, controlling food production on a large scale <strong>and</strong><br />
reducing agrobidiversity to a few varieties. <strong>The</strong> only apparent interest in promoting this<br />
tecnology appears to be purely economic, despite the claims of seed companies such as<br />
291
Monsanto <strong>and</strong> Novartis to solve the world food scarcity. It is now popularly understood that it<br />
is not the lack of food on a wholewide scale that is the main problem, but its distribution,<br />
aggravated by prohibitive tariffs by rich nations. Genetically modified crops do not reduce<br />
hunger. <strong>The</strong> majority of genetically crops are destined for animal food to meet the high<br />
dem<strong>and</strong> for meat in developed countries. No genetic modification have yet to serve the<br />
needs of mankind despite all the promises in this direction.<br />
However, even with regard to this technology's great potential, some people have raised<br />
concerns about the introduction of genetically engineered plants <strong>and</strong> animals into the<br />
environment <strong>and</strong> the potential dangers of human consumption of GM foods. <strong>The</strong>y say that<br />
these organisms have the potential to spread their modified genes into native populations<br />
thereby disrupting natural ecosystems. This has already happened."<br />

200 "...genetic manipulation of a species..."<br />
"How much genetic variation is there? Historical debate: Classical school held that there<br />
was very little genetic variation, most individuals were homozygous for a "wild-type" allele.<br />
Rare heterozygous loci due to recurrent mutation; natural selection purges populations of<br />
their "load" of mutations. Balance school held that many loci will be heterozygous in natural<br />
populations <strong>and</strong> heterozygotes maintained by "balancing selection" (heterozygote<br />
advantage). Selection thus plays a role in maintaining variation.<br />
How do we measure variation? To show that there is a genetic basis to a continuously<br />
varying character one can study 1) resemblance among relatives: look at the offspring of<br />
individuals from parents in different parts of the distribution; can estimate heritability (more<br />
later). 2) artificial selection: pigeons <strong>and</strong> dogs show that there is variation present; does<br />
not tell how much variation."<br />

All Proteobacteria are Gram-negative, with an outer membrane mainly composed of<br />
lipopolysaccharides. Many move about using flagella, but some are non-motile or rely on<br />
bacterial gliding. <strong>The</strong> last include the myxobacteria, a unique group of bacteria that can<br />
aggregate to form multicellular fruiting bodies. <strong>The</strong>re is also a wide variety in the types of<br />
metabolism. Most members are facultatively or obligately anaerobic <strong>and</strong> heterotrophic, but<br />
there are numerous exceptions. A variety of genera, which are not closely related to each<br />
other, convert energy from light through photosynthesis. <strong>The</strong>se are called purple bacteria,<br />
referring to their mostly reddish pigmentation."<br />

205 "... patent licenses for the biological engineering process ..."<br />
"A biological patent is a patent relating to an invention or discovery in biology.<br />
<strong>The</strong> 1970’s marked the first time when scientists patented methods on their biotechnological<br />
inventions with recombinant DNA. It wasn’t until 1980 that patents for whole-scale living<br />
organisms was permitted. In Diamond v. Chakrabarty, the Supreme Court overturned a<br />
previous precedent allowing the patentability of living matter. <strong>The</strong> subject for this<br />
particular case was a bacterium that was specifically modified to help clean-up <strong>and</strong> degrade<br />
oil spills.<br />
293
Since legal changes have occurred starting in 1980, there has been a general trend of<br />
patenting inventions on living matter. More knowledge <strong>and</strong> data has become available in<br />
recent years that have never before been available. However, for us to get to the point<br />
where it is making a significant difference in peoples’ lives, a tidy sum of money needs to be<br />
invested. Biotech <strong>and</strong> pharmaceutical companies in recent years have found out how<br />
lucrative biological research can be. <strong>The</strong>se firms foster many research opportunities<br />
by funding made possible only through the private sector.<br />
Patents have provided an impetus for research to be pursued in that the end goal of money<br />
can be envisioned by companies with the funding cash. Especially during the genomic era,<br />
more patents were issued. Companies <strong>and</strong> organizations like the University of California<br />
were patenting whole genomes.<br />
In 1998, the U.S. Patent <strong>and</strong> Trademark Office (PTO) issued a broad patent claiming<br />
primate (including human) embryonic stem cells, entitled "Primate Embryonic Stem<br />
Cells" (Patent 5,843,780). On 13 March 2001, a second patent (6,200,806) was issued with<br />
the same title but focused on human embryonic stem cells.<br />
Recently, there has been a slowdown <strong>and</strong> backlash against patenting biological<br />
material worldwide.<br />
Some feel that the increase in patenting biological information leads to inefficiency in<br />
research. Many scientists are coming up against patent thickets, which are masses of<br />
information that they must obtain permission (<strong>and</strong> often pay large fees to utilize)<br />
before they can ever work with the information.<br />
Michael Heller <strong>and</strong> Rebecca Eisenberg (2005) explain that there is a recent trend of<br />
patenting more <strong>and</strong> more steps along the research path. This creates a "tragedy of the<br />
anticommons," whereby "each upstream patent allows its owner to set up another tollbooth<br />
on the road to product development, adding to the cost <strong>and</strong> slowing the pace of downstream<br />
. . . innovation". A report shows that notwithst<strong>and</strong>ing escalating funding, in the past halfdecade<br />
biomedical innovation has slowed markedly. <strong>The</strong> number of drugs approved by the<br />
Food <strong>and</strong> Drug Administration has fallen below previous eras. <strong>The</strong> technologies approved, it<br />
continues, are less influential than previous innovations approved. <strong>The</strong> current trend of<br />
patenting what previously were thought of as basic science insights have raised the financial<br />
bar for other scientists wanting to use such insight. <strong>The</strong> overall trend of more patents may be<br />
slowing innovation.<br />
However, others point out that patents are necessary for research. Without them, scientists<br />
would keep secret all discoveries for fear of colleagues <strong>and</strong> others stealing their<br />
ideas. <strong>The</strong>re would also be little incentive for large-scale investments from the private<br />
sector.<br />

206 "..."cyclical stimulus-response generators".<br />
"Fixed Action Pattern (FAP) is an instinctive behavioral sequence that is indivisible<br />
<strong>and</strong> runs to completion. Fixed action patterns are invariant <strong>and</strong> are produced by a<br />
neural network known as the innate releasing mechanism in response to an external<br />
sensory stimulus known as a sign stimulus or releaser.<br />
294
A mating dance may be used as an example. Many species of birds engage in a specific<br />
series of elaborate movements, usually by a brightly colored male. How well they perform<br />
the "dance" is then used by females of the species to judge their fitness as a potential mate.<br />
<strong>The</strong> key stimulus is typically the presence of the female.<br />
Although fixed action patterns are most common in animals with simpler cognitive<br />
capabilities, humans also demonstrate fixed action patterns. For example, infants grasp<br />
strongly with their h<strong>and</strong>s as a response to tactile stimulus."<br />
Reference: Wikipedia.org<br />
207 "...chemical-electrical trigger" mechanism..."<br />
"A taxis (plural taxes) is an innate behavioural response by an organism to a stimulus. A<br />
taxis differs from a tropism (turning response, often growth towards or away from a stimulus)<br />
in that the organism has motility <strong>and</strong> demonstrates guided movement towards or away from<br />
the stimulus. It also differs from a kinesis, a non-directional change in activity in response to<br />
a stimulus that results in the illusion of directed motion due to different rates of activity<br />
depending on stimulus intensity.<br />
For example, flagellate protozoans of the genus Euglena move towards a light source. Here<br />
the directional stimulus is light, <strong>and</strong> the orientation movement is towards the light. This<br />
reaction or behaviour is a positive one to light <strong>and</strong> specifically termed "positive phototaxis",<br />
since phototaxis is a response to a light stimulus, <strong>and</strong> the organism is moving towards the<br />
stimulus. If the organism moves away from the stimulus, then the taxis is negative. Many<br />
types of taxis have been identified <strong>and</strong> named using prefices to specify the stimulus that<br />
elicits the response. <strong>The</strong>se include anemotaxis (stimulation by wind), barotaxis (pressure),<br />
chemotaxis (chemicals), galvanotaxis (electrical current), geotaxis (gravity), hydrotaxis<br />
(moisture), phototaxis (light), rheotaxis (fluid flow), thermotaxis (temperature changes)<br />
<strong>and</strong> thigmotaxis (physical contact).<br />
Chemotaxis is a migratory response elicited by chemicals. Unicellular (e.g. protozoa) or<br />
multicellular (e.g. worms) organisms are targets of the substances. A concentration gradient<br />
of chemicals developed in a fluid phase guides the vectorial movement of responder cells or<br />
organisms.<br />
Electrotaxis is directional movement of motile cells in response to a electric field. It<br />
has been suggested that by detecting <strong>and</strong> orientating themselves toward the electric fields.<br />
This notion is based on 1) the existence of measurable electric fields that naturally occur<br />
during wound healing, development <strong>and</strong> regeneration; <strong>and</strong> 2) cells in cultures respond to<br />
applied electric fields by directional cell."<br />

"... reproductive chemical-electrical impulses stimulated by testosterone or<br />
estrogen."<br />
"Testosterone is a steroid hormone from the <strong>and</strong>rogen group. In mammals, testosterone is<br />
primarily secreted in the testes of males <strong>and</strong> the ovaries of females, although small amounts<br />
are also secreted by the adrenal gl<strong>and</strong>s. It is the principal male sex hormone <strong>and</strong> an<br />
anabolic steroid.<br />
295
<strong>The</strong> period of the early 1930’s to the 1950’s has been called “<strong>The</strong> Golden Age of Steroid<br />
Chemistry”, <strong>and</strong> work during this period progressed quickly. Research in this golden age<br />
proved that this newly synthesized compound — testosterone — or rather family of<br />
compounds (for many derivatives were developed in the 1940’s, 50’s <strong>and</strong> 60’s), was a potent<br />
multiplier of muscle, strength, <strong>and</strong> wellbeing<br />
In both men <strong>and</strong> women, testosterone plays a key role in health <strong>and</strong> well-being as well<br />
as in sexual functioning.<br />
<strong>The</strong> human hormone testosterone is produced in greater amounts by males, <strong>and</strong> less by<br />
females. <strong>The</strong> human hormone estrogen is produced in greater amounts by females,<br />
<strong>and</strong> less by males. On average, an adult human male body produces about forty to<br />
sixty times more testosterone than an adult female body.<br />
Testosterone causes the appearance of masculine traits (i.e deepening voice, pubic <strong>and</strong><br />
facial hairs, muscular build, etc.) Like men, women rely on testosterone to maintain libido,<br />
bone density <strong>and</strong> muscle mass throughout their lives."<br />

"<strong>The</strong> term Sexual addiction is used to describe the behavior of a person who has an<br />
unusually intense sex drive or obsession with sex. Sexual addiction, also called sexual<br />
compulsion is a form of psychological addiction.<br />
<strong>The</strong> behavior of sex addicts is comparable to behavior of alcoholics <strong>and</strong> addicts, where sex<br />
functions like a drug. A common definition of alcoholism is that a person has a pathological<br />
relationship with this mood altering drug. It provides a quick mood change, works every time<br />
<strong>and</strong> the user loses control over their compulsion. Like alcoholics, sex addicts' lives rotate<br />
around the constant desire for their "drug" of choice."<br />

211 "... a heavy gravity, nitrogen/oxygen atmosphere planet..."<br />
"<strong>The</strong> <strong>Earth</strong>'s atmosphere is a layer of gases surrounding the planet <strong>Earth</strong> <strong>and</strong> retained by<br />
the <strong>Earth</strong>'s gravity. It contains roughly (by molar content/volume) 78.08% nitrogen, 20.95%<br />
oxygen, 0.93% argon, 0.038% carbon dioxide, trace amounts of other gases, <strong>and</strong> a variable<br />
amount (average around 1%) of water vapor. This mixture of gases is commonly known as<br />
air. <strong>The</strong> atmosphere protects life on <strong>Earth</strong> by absorbing ultraviolet solar radiation <strong>and</strong><br />
reducing temperature extremes between day <strong>and</strong> night.<br />
<strong>The</strong>re is no definite boundary between the atmosphere <strong>and</strong> outer space. It slowly becomes<br />
thinner <strong>and</strong> fades into space. Three quarters of the atmosphere's mass is within 11 km of the<br />
planetary surface. In the United States, people who travel above an altitude of 80.5 km (50<br />
statute miles) are designated astronauts. An altitude of 120 km (~75 miles or 400,000 ft)<br />
marks the boundary where atmospheric effects become noticeable during re-entry. <strong>The</strong><br />
Kármán line, at 100 km (62 miles or 328,000 ft), is also frequently regarded as the boundary<br />
between atmosphere <strong>and</strong> outer space.<br />
<strong>The</strong> atmosphere of Mars is relatively thin, <strong>and</strong> the atmospheric pressure on the surface<br />
varies from around 30 Pa (0.03 kPa) on Olympus Mons's peak to over 1155 Pa (1.155 kPa)<br />
in the depths of Hellas Planitia, with a mean surface level pressure of 600 Pa (0.6 kPa),<br />
compared to <strong>Earth</strong>'s 101.3 kPa. However, the scale height of the atmosphere is about<br />
11 km, somewhat higher than <strong>Earth</strong>'s 6 km. <strong>The</strong> atmosphere on Mars consists of 95%<br />
carbon dioxide, 3% nitrogen, 1.6% argon, <strong>and</strong> contains traces of oxygen, water, <strong>and</strong><br />
methane. <strong>The</strong> atmosphere is quite dusty, giving the Martian sky a tawny color when seen<br />
from the surface; data from the Mars Exploration Rovers indicates the suspended dust<br />
particles are roughly 1.5 micrometres across.<br />
<strong>The</strong> atmosphere of Venus, the second planet from the Sun, is much denser <strong>and</strong> hotter than<br />
that of <strong>Earth</strong>. <strong>The</strong> surface temperature <strong>and</strong> pressure on Venus are 740 K (467°C) <strong>and</strong><br />
93 bar, respectively. <strong>The</strong> Venusian atmosphere supports thick persistent clouds made of<br />
sulfuric acid, which make optical observations of the surface impossible. <strong>The</strong> information<br />
about surface features on Venus has been obtained exclusively by radar imaging conducted<br />
from the ground <strong>and</strong> Venera 15-16 <strong>and</strong> by Magellan space probes. <strong>The</strong> main atmosphereric<br />
gases on Venus are carbon dioxide <strong>and</strong> nitrogen, which make up 96.5% <strong>and</strong> 3.5% of all<br />
molecules. Other chemical compounds are present only in trace amounts.<br />
<strong>The</strong> atmosphere of Venus is in state of a vigorous circulation <strong>and</strong> super-rotation. <strong>The</strong> whole<br />
atmosphere circles the planet in just four days (super-rotation), which is a short time<br />
compared with the sideral rotational period of 243 days. <strong>The</strong> winds supporting super-rotation<br />
blow as fast as 100 m/s. Near the poles of Venus anticyclonic structures called polar<br />
vortexes are located. In them the air moves downward. Each vortex is double eyed <strong>and</strong><br />
shows a characteristic S-shaped pattern of clouds.<br />
297
Only the ionosphere <strong>and</strong> thin induced magnetosphere separate venusian atmosphere from<br />
the space. <strong>The</strong>y shield the atmosphere from the solar wind, which usually does not<br />
penetrate deep into it. However they are incapable of preventing the loss of water, which is<br />
continuously blown away by the solar wind through the induced magnetotail.<br />
Despite the harsh conditions on the surface, at about a 50 km to 65 km level above the<br />
surface of the planet the atmospheric pressure <strong>and</strong> temperature is nearly the same as that of<br />
the <strong>Earth</strong>, making its upper atmosphere the most <strong>Earth</strong>-like area in the Solar System, even<br />
more so than the surface of Mars. Due to the similarity in pressure, temperature <strong>and</strong> the fact<br />
that breathable air (21% oxygen, 78% nitrogen) is a lifting gas on Venus in the same way<br />
that helium is a lifting gas on <strong>Earth</strong>."<br />

Europe (c. 1439) <strong>and</strong> mechanical printing globally. His major work, the Gutenberg Bible, also<br />

"George Washington Carver (July 12, 1864 – January 5, 1943) was an American botanical<br />
researcher <strong>and</strong> agronomy educator who worked in agricultural extension at the Tuskegee<br />
Institute in Tuskegee, Alabama, teaching former slaves farming techniques for selfsufficiency.<br />
George Washington Carver reputedly discovered three hundred uses for peanuts <strong>and</strong><br />
hundreds more uses for soybeans, pecans <strong>and</strong> sweet potatoes. Among the listed items that<br />
he suggested to southern farmers to help them economically were adhesives, axle grease,<br />
bleach, buttermilk, chili sauce, fuel briquettes, ink, instant coffee, linoleum, mayonnaise,<br />
meat tenderizer, metal polish, paper, plastic, pavement, shaving cream, shoe polish,<br />
synthetic rubber, talcum powder <strong>and</strong> wood stain. Three patents (one for cosmetics, <strong>and</strong> two<br />
for paints <strong>and</strong> stains) were issued to George Washington Carver in the years 1925 to 1927;<br />
however, they were not commercially successful in the end. Aside from these patents <strong>and</strong><br />
some recipes for food, he left no formulas or procedures for making his products. He did not<br />
keep a laboratory notebook.<br />
298
Carver's most important accomplishments were in areas other than industrial products from<br />
peanuts, including agricultural extension education, improvement of racial relations,<br />
mentoring children, poetry, painting, religion, advocacy of sustainable agriculture <strong>and</strong><br />
appreciation of plants <strong>and</strong> nature. He served as a valuable role model for African-Americans<br />
<strong>and</strong> an example of the importance of hard work, a positive attitude <strong>and</strong> a good education.<br />
His humility, humanitarianism, good nature, frugality <strong>and</strong> lack of economic materialism have<br />
also been widely admired.<br />
One of his most important roles was that the fame of his achievements <strong>and</strong> many talents<br />
undermined the widespread stereotype of the time that the black race was intellectually<br />
inferior to the white race. In 1941, "Time" magazine dubbed him a "Black Leonardo".<br />

216 "... Renaissance..."<br />
<strong>The</strong> Renaissance (from French Renaissance, meaning "rebirth"; Italian: Rinascimento, from<br />
re- "again" <strong>and</strong> nascere "be born") was a cultural movement that spanned roughly the 14th<br />
through the 17th century, beginning in Italy in the late Middle Ages <strong>and</strong> later spreading to the<br />
rest of western Europe. It encompassed a revival of learning based on classical sources, the<br />
development of linear perspective in painting, <strong>and</strong> educational reform. <strong>The</strong> Renaissance saw<br />
developments in most intellectual pursuits, but is perhaps best known for its artistic aspect<br />
<strong>and</strong> the contributions of such polymaths as Leonardo da Vinci <strong>and</strong> Michelangelo, who have<br />
inspired the term "Renaissance men".<br />
However, it was not until the nineteenth century that the French word Renaissance<br />
achieved popularity in describing the cultural movement that began in the late 13th<br />
century" (1200 AD - 1300 AD).<br />
<strong>The</strong> term was first used retrospectively by the Italian artist <strong>and</strong> critic Giorgio Vasari (1511-<br />
1574) in his book <strong>The</strong> Lives of the Artists (published 1550). In the book Vasari was<br />
attempting to define what he described as a break with the barbarities of gothic art: the arts<br />
299
had fallen into decay with the collapse of the Roman Empire <strong>and</strong> only the Tuscan artists,<br />
beginning with Cimabue (1240-1301) <strong>and</strong> Giotto (1267-1337) began to reverse this<br />
decline in the arts. According to Vasari, antique art was central to the rebirth of Italian art.<br />
During the 12th century in Europe, there was a radical change in the rate of new inventions<br />
<strong>and</strong> innovations in the ways of managing traditional means of production <strong>and</strong> economic<br />
growth. In less than a century, there were more inventions developed <strong>and</strong> applied usefully<br />
than in the previous thous<strong>and</strong> years of human history all over the globe. <strong>The</strong> period saw<br />
major technological advances, including the adoption or invention of printing, gunpowder,<br />
spectacles, a better clock, the astrolabe, <strong>and</strong> greatly improved ships. <strong>The</strong> latter two<br />
advances made possible the dawn of the Age of Exploration.<br />
Alfred Crosby described some of this technological revolution in <strong>The</strong> Measure of<br />
Reality : Quantification in Western Europe, 1250-1600 <strong>and</strong> other major historians of<br />
technology have also noted it.<br />

• Paper manufacture began in Italy around 1270.<br />
• <strong>The</strong> spinning wheel was brought to Europe (probably from India) in the 13th century.<br />
• <strong>The</strong> magnetic compass aided navigation, first reaching Europe some time in the late<br />

"... explosions that were tested <strong>and</strong> used in the past two years on <strong>Earth</strong> have the<br />
potential to destroy all of life..."<br />
"A doomsday device is a hypothetical construction — usually a weapon — which could<br />
destroy all life on the <strong>Earth</strong>, or destroy the <strong>Earth</strong> itself (bringing "doomsday", a term used for<br />
the end of planet <strong>Earth</strong>).<br />
Doomsday devices have been present in literature <strong>and</strong> art especially in the 20th century,<br />
when advances in science <strong>and</strong> technology allowed humans to imagine a definite <strong>and</strong><br />
plausible way of actively destroying the world or all life on it (or at least human life). Many<br />
classics in the genre of science fiction take up the theme in this respect, especially <strong>The</strong><br />
Purple Cloud (1901) by M. P. Shiel in which the accidental release of a gas kills all people on<br />
the planet.<br />
After the advent of nuclear weapons, especially hydrogen bombs, they have usually been<br />
the dominant components of fictional doomsday devices. RAND strategist Herman Kahn<br />
proposed a "Doomsday Machine" in the 1950s which would consist of a computer linked to a<br />
stockpile of hydrogen bombs, programmed to detonate them all <strong>and</strong> bathe the planet in<br />
nuclear fallout at the signal of an impending nuclear attack from another nation. Such a<br />
scheme, fictional as it was, epitomized for many the extremes of the suicidal logic behind the<br />
strategy of mutually assured destruction, <strong>and</strong> it was famously parodied in the Stanley<br />
300
Kubrick film from 1964, Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying <strong>and</strong> Love the<br />
Bomb. It is also a main topic of the movie Beneath the Planet of the Apes, in parallel with the<br />
species extermination theme. Most such models either rely on the fact that hydrogen bombs<br />
can be made arbitrarily large (see Teller-Ulam design) or that they can be "salted" with<br />
materials designed to create long-lasting <strong>and</strong> hazardous fallout (e.g.; a cobalt bomb).<br />
<strong>The</strong>re are many unconfirmed, anecdotal reports of a Soviet doomsday device involving a<br />
200-megaton hydrogen bomb sheathed in (or, alternately, "salted" with) a highly radioactive<br />
material, usually said to be cobalt, of sufficient quantity to saturate the earth's atmosphere<br />
with deadly fallout should the device be detonated. Details regarding this device vary<br />
according to the source, but enough similarities in the dozens of different stories exist to<br />
suggest at least some basis in truth. According to various sources, at some point between<br />
1967 <strong>and</strong> 1985, the device was designed but never constructed; built but never activated;<br />
built <strong>and</strong> activated, but dismantled at the end of the cold war; or designed <strong>and</strong> constructed in<br />
such a manner that it can never be de-activated, <strong>and</strong> is still in existence today. Tales of its<br />
location <strong>and</strong> means of operation are equally diverse: it was in an underground bunker west<br />
of Moscow, Siberia, the Ukraine, etc.; it was installed on a special rocket booster that would<br />
deliver it to the upper atmosphere upon activation; it was actually a series of bombs placed<br />
at intervals along the western border of the USSR; it was to be detonated upon comm<strong>and</strong><br />
from the Kremlin, automatically by a special computer, a seismic trigger, or upon detection of<br />
incoming missiles. Many more versions exist, such as one with the device being<br />
permanently installed in the hold of an unmarked tramp freighter, steaming r<strong>and</strong>omly from<br />
port to port in the North Sea."<br />

• the kind of questions that are supposed to be asked <strong>and</strong> probed for answers in<br />
relation to this subject<br />
• how these questions are to be structured<br />
• how the results of scientific investigations should be interpreted<br />
Alternatively, the Oxford English Dictionary defines paradigm as "a pattern or model, an<br />
exemplar."<br />

219 "...Nicola Tesla..."<br />
"Nikola Tesla (10 July 1856 – 7 January 1943) was an inventor, physicist, mechanical<br />
engineer, <strong>and</strong> electrical engineer. Born in Smiljan, Croatian Krajina, Military Frontier, he was<br />
an ethnic Serb subject of the Austrian Empire <strong>and</strong> later became an American citizen. Tesla<br />
is best known for his many revolutionary contributions to the discipline of electricity <strong>and</strong><br />
magnetism in the late 19th <strong>and</strong> early 20th century. Tesla's patents <strong>and</strong> theoretical work<br />
301
formed the basis of modern alternating current electric power (AC) systems, including the<br />
polyphase power distribution systems <strong>and</strong> the AC motor, with which he helped usher in the<br />
Second Industrial Revolution. Contemporary biographers of Tesla have deemed him "the<br />
man who invented the twentieth century" <strong>and</strong> "the patron saint of modern electricity."<br />
After his demonstration of wireless communication (radio) in 1893 <strong>and</strong> after being the victor<br />
in the "War of Currents", he was widely respected as America's greatest electrical engineer.<br />
Much of his early work pioneered modern electrical engineering <strong>and</strong> many of his discoveries<br />
were of groundbreaking importance. During this period, in the United States, Tesla's fame<br />
rivaled that of any other inventor or scientist in history or popular culture but due to his<br />
eccentric personality <strong>and</strong> unbelievable <strong>and</strong> sometimes bizarre claims about possible<br />
scientific <strong>and</strong> technological developments, Tesla was ultimately ostracized <strong>and</strong> regarded as<br />
a "mad scientist". Never having put much focus on his finances, Tesla died impoverished at<br />
the age of 86.<br />
Aside from his work on electromagnetism <strong>and</strong> engineering, Tesla is said to have<br />
contributed in varying degrees to the establishment of robotics, remote control, radar<br />
<strong>and</strong> computer science, <strong>and</strong> to the expansion of ballistics, nuclear physics, <strong>and</strong><br />
theoretical physics. In 1943, the Supreme Court of the United States credited him as<br />
being the inventor of the radio."<br />
He performed several experiments prior to Roentgen's discovery (including photographing<br />
the bones of his h<strong>and</strong>; later, he sent these images to Roentgen) but didn't make his findings<br />
widely known; much of his research was lost in the 5th Avenue lab fire of March 1895.<br />
A "world system" for "the transmission of electrical energy without wires" that<br />
depends upon the electrical conductivity was proposed in which transmission in various<br />
natural mediums with current that passes between the two point are used to power devices.<br />
In a practical wireless energy transmission system using this principle, a high-power<br />
ultraviolet beam might be used to form a vertical ionized channel in the air directly above the<br />
transmitter-receiver stations. <strong>The</strong> same concept is used in virtual lightning rods, the<br />
electrolaser electroshock weapon, <strong>and</strong> has been proposed for disabling vehicles.<br />
Tesla demonstrated "the transmission of electrical energy without wires" that depends<br />
upon electrical conductivity as early as 1891. <strong>The</strong> Tesla effect (named in honor of Tesla) is<br />
the archaic term for an application of this type of electrical conduction (that is, the movement<br />
of energy through space <strong>and</strong> matter; not just the production of voltage across a conductor)<br />
Tesla also investigated harvesting energy that is present throughout space. He<br />
believed that it was just merely a question of time when men will succeed in attaching their<br />
machinery to the very wheelwork of nature, stating: Ere many generations pass, our<br />
machinery will be driven by a power obtainable at any point of the universe. —"Experiments<br />
With Alternate Currents Of High Potential And High Frequency" (February 1892)<br />
Tesla began to theorize about electricity <strong>and</strong> magnetism's power to warp, or rather change,<br />
space <strong>and</strong> time <strong>and</strong> the procedure by which man could forcibly control this power. Near the<br />
end of his life, Tesla was fascinated with the idea of light as both a particle <strong>and</strong> a wave, a<br />
fundamental proposition already incorporated into quantum physics. This field of inquiry led<br />
to the idea of creating a "wall of light" by manipulating electromagnetic waves in a<br />
certain pattern. This mysterious wall of light would enable time, space, gravity <strong>and</strong> matter to<br />
be altered at will, <strong>and</strong> engendered an array of Tesla proposals that seem to leap<br />
straight out of science fiction, including anti-gravity airships, teleportation, <strong>and</strong> time<br />
travel.<br />
302
<strong>The</strong> single strangest invention Tesla ever proposed was probably the "thought<br />
photography" machine. He reasoned that a thought formed in the mind created a<br />
corresponding image in the retina, <strong>and</strong> the electrical data of this neural transmission could<br />
be read <strong>and</strong> recorded in a machine. <strong>The</strong> stored information could then be processed through<br />
an artificial optic nerve <strong>and</strong> played back as visual patterns on a viewscreen.<br />
Another of Tesla's theorized inventions is commonly referred to as Tesla's Flying Machine,<br />
which appears to resemble an ion-propelled aircraft. Tesla claimed that one of his life<br />
goals was to create a flying machine that would run without the use of an airplane<br />
engine, wings, ailerons, propellers, or an onboard fuel source. Initially, Tesla pondered<br />
about the idea of a flying craft that would fly using an electric motor powered by grounded<br />
base stations. As time progressed, Tesla suggested that perhaps such an aircraft could be<br />
run entirely electro-mechanically. <strong>The</strong> theorized appearance would typically take the<br />
form of a cigar or saucer.<br />
In the Colorado Springs lab, Tesla observed unusual signals that he later thought may<br />
have been evidence of extraterrestrial radio communications coming from Venus or<br />
Mars. He noticed repetitive signals from his receiver which were substantially different from<br />
the signals he had noted from storms <strong>and</strong> earth noise. Specifically, he later recalled that the<br />
signals appeared in groups of one, two, three, <strong>and</strong> four clicks together. Tesla had mentioned<br />
before this event <strong>and</strong> many times after that he thought his inventions could be used to<br />
talk with other planets. <strong>The</strong>re have even been claims that he invented a "Teslascope" for<br />
just such a purpose.<br />
"I hold that space cannot be curved, for the simple reason that it can have no<br />
properties. It might as well be said that God has properties. He has not, but only<br />
attributes <strong>and</strong> these are of our own making. Of properties we can only speak when dealing<br />
with matter filling the space. To say that in the presence of large bodies space becomes<br />
curved is equivalent to stating that something can act upon nothing. I, for one, refuse to<br />
subscribe to such a view." -- New York Herald Tribune, September 11, 1932<br />
Tesla was critical of Einstein's relativity work, calling it :<br />
"...[a] magnificent mathematical garb which fascinates, dazzles <strong>and</strong> makes people blind to<br />
the underlying errors. <strong>The</strong> theory is like a beggar clothed in purple whom ignorant people<br />
take for a king..., its exponents are brilliant men but they are metaphysicists rather than<br />
scientists... " -- New York Times, July 11, 1935, p 23, c.8<br />
"Nikola Tesla invented the 20th <strong>and</strong> 21st Century. A 'discoverer of new principles,' Tesla was<br />
the sole inventor of the alternating poly-phase current generators that light up every town in<br />
the world today. He was the original inventor of the radio, <strong>and</strong> placed his ideas in print <strong>and</strong><br />
demonstrated them before the public 5 years before Marconi. By the turn of the century, he<br />
had discussed the feasibility of television; he created an atom smasher capable of<br />
evaporating rubies <strong>and</strong> diamonds; he built wireless neon lamps that gave off more light than<br />
today's conventional bulbs provide; he built precursors to the electron microscope, the laser<br />
<strong>and</strong> X-ray photographs. He sent his shadowgraphs to the discoverer of X-rays in 1895 as<br />
soon a Roentgen published his famous pictures. Tesla also created Kirlian-like<br />
photographs 75 years before they became famous. All of this took place before 1900!'<br />
Tesla, <strong>and</strong> not Edison, invented the poly-phase alternators that power our modern<br />
civilization; <strong>and</strong> it was Tesla who was eventually awarded Marconi's wireless patents long<br />
after Tesla <strong>and</strong> Marconi were both dead. In all, Tesla contributed over 1200 patents, <strong>and</strong> we<br />
303
are currently using only some 200 of them. Near everyone remembers the Tesla Coil, but<br />
how many remember that he demonstrated wireless transmission of electric power prior to<br />
1900?<br />
When offered to share the Nobel Prize with Edison for their electrical inventions, Tesla<br />
turned the prestigious award down! Edison never received the Nobel Prize.<br />
Tesla is quoted as saying:<br />
'In the dark I had the sense of a bat, <strong>and</strong> could detect the presence of an object at a<br />
distance of 12 feet away by a peculiar creepy sensation on the forehead...'<br />
'In Budapest, I could hear the ticking of a watch with 3 rooms between me <strong>and</strong> the<br />
timepiece. A fly alighting on a table in the room would cause a dull thud in my ear. A<br />
carriage passing at a distance of a few miles fairly shook my whole body. <strong>The</strong> whistle<br />
of a locomotive 20 or 30 miles away made the bench or chair on which I sat vibrate so<br />
strongly that the pain was unbearable. <strong>The</strong> ground under my feet trembled<br />
continuously...'<br />
Tesla said in an 1892 lecture :<br />
'Ere many generations pass, our machinery will be driven by a power obtainable at<br />
any point of the universe. Throughout space there is energy. Is this energy static or<br />
kinetic? If static, our hopes are in vain; if kinetic - <strong>and</strong> this we know it is, for certain - then it is<br />
a mere question of time when men will succeed in attaching their machinery to the very<br />
wheelwork of nature.'<br />

220 "... will be able to "reverse engineer" the technology..."<br />
"After joining the Army in 1942, Philip Corso served in Army Intelligence in Europe. In 1945,<br />
Corso arranged for the safe passage of 10,000 Jewish WWII refugees out of Rome to<br />
Palestine. During the Korean War (1950-1953), Corso performed Intelligence duties under<br />
General Douglas MacArthur as Chief of the Special Projects branch of the Intelligence<br />
Division, Far East Comm<strong>and</strong>. One of his primary duties was to keep track of enemy prisoner<br />
of war (POW) camps in North Korea. Corso was in charge of investigating the estimated<br />
number of U.S. <strong>and</strong> other United Nations POWs held at each camp <strong>and</strong> their treatment. At<br />
later held congressional hearings of the Senate Select Committee on POW/MIA Affairs,<br />
Philip Corso would provide testimony that many hundreds of American POW's were<br />
ab<strong>and</strong>oned at these camps.<br />
Corso was on the staff of President Eisenhower's National Security Council for four years<br />
(1953-1957). In 1961, he became Chief of the Pentagon's Foreign Technology desk in Army<br />
Research <strong>and</strong> Development, working under Lt. Gen. Arthur Trudeau. When he left military<br />
intelligence in 1963, Corso became a key aide to Senator Strom Thurmond. In 1964, Corso<br />
was assigned to Warren Commission member Senator Richard Russell Jr. as an investigator<br />
into the assassination of John F. Kennedy.<br />
Philip Corso relates in his book <strong>The</strong> Day After Roswell (co-author William J. Birnes) how he<br />
stewarded extraterrestrial artifacts recovered from a crash at Roswell, New Mexico in 1947.<br />
304
According to Corso, the reverse engineering of these artifacts indirectly led to the<br />
development of accelerated particle beam devices, fiber optics, lasers, integrated<br />
circuit chips <strong>and</strong> Kevlar material.<br />
In 1947, according to Corso, a covert government group (see Majestic 12) was assembled<br />
under the leadership of the first Director of Central Intelligence , Adm. Roscoe H.<br />
Hillenkoetter. Among its tasks was to collect all information on extraterrestrial spacecraft.<br />
<strong>The</strong> US administration simultaneously discounted the existence of flying saucers in the eyes<br />
of the public, Corso says. Corso further relates that the Strategic Defense Initiative (SDI), or<br />
Star Wars, was meant to achieve the capability of killing the electronic guidance systems of<br />
incoming enemy warheads <strong>and</strong> disabling enemy spacecraft, including those of<br />
extraterrestrial origin."<br />

221 "... attuned to the "neural network" of the craft."<br />
"Traditionally, the term Neural Networks had been used to refer to a network or circuit of<br />
biological neurons. <strong>The</strong> modern usage of the term often refers to artificial neural networks,<br />
which are composed of artificial neurons or nodes. Thus the term 'Neural Network' has two<br />
distinct usages:<br />
1) Biological neural networks are made up of real biological neurons that are<br />
connected or functionally-related in the peripheral nervous system or the central nervous<br />
system. In the field of neuroscience, they are often identified as groups of neurons that<br />
perform a specific physiological function in laboratory analysis.<br />
2) Artificial neural networks are made up of interconnecting artificial neurons<br />
(programming constructs that mimic the properties of biological neurons). Artificial neural<br />
networks may either be used to gain an underst<strong>and</strong>ing of biological neural networks, or<br />
for solving artificial intelligence problems without necessarily creating a model of a real<br />
biological system."<br />

222 "...microscopic wiring or fibers..."<br />
<strong>The</strong> transistor was invented in 1947. It was considered a revolution. Small, fast, reliable<br />
<strong>and</strong> effective, it quickly replaced the vacuum tube. Freed from the limitations of the vacuum<br />
tube, engineers finally could begin to realize the electrical constructions of their dreams.<br />
It seems that the integrated circuit was destined to be invented. Two separate inventors,<br />
unaware of each other's activities, invented almost identical integrated circuits or ICs at<br />
nearly the same time.<br />
Jack Kilby, an engineer with a background in ceramic-based silk screen circuit boards <strong>and</strong><br />
transistor-based hearing aids, started working for Texas Instruments in 1958. A year earlier,<br />
research engineer Robert Noyce had co-founded the Fairchild Semiconductor Corporation.<br />
From 1958 to 1959, both electrical engineers were working on an answer to the same<br />
dilemma: how to make more of less.<br />
305
Although the first integrated circuit was pretty crude <strong>and</strong> had some problems, the idea was<br />
groundbreaking. By making all the parts out of the same block of material <strong>and</strong> adding the<br />
metal needed to connect them as a layer on top of it, there was no more need for individual<br />
discrete components. No more wires <strong>and</strong> components had to be assembled manually. <strong>The</strong><br />
circuits could be made smaller <strong>and</strong> the manufacturing process could be automated.<br />
Jack Kilby (Texas Instruments) is probably most famous for his invention of the integrated<br />
circuit, for which he received the Nobel Prize in Physics in the year 2000. After his success<br />
with the integrated circuit Kilby stayed with Texas Instruments <strong>and</strong>, among other things, he<br />
led the team that invented the h<strong>and</strong>-held calculator.<br />
Jack Kilby now holds patents on over sixty inventions <strong>and</strong> is also well known as the inventor<br />
of the portable calculator (1967). In 1970 he was awarded the National Medal of Science.<br />
Robert Noyce, with sixteen patents to his name, founded Intel, the company responsible for<br />
the invention of the microprocessor, in 1968. But for both men the invention of the integrated<br />
circuit st<strong>and</strong>s historically as one of the most important innovations of mankind. Almost all<br />
modern products use chip technology.<br />

223 "...wiring is used for light, sub-light <strong>and</strong> ultra-light spectrum detection <strong>and</strong> vision."<br />
An optical fiber is a glass or plastic fiber designed to guide light along its length. Fiber<br />
optics is the overlap of applied science <strong>and</strong> engineering concerned with the design <strong>and</strong><br />
application of optical fibers. Optical fibers are widely used in fiber-optic communication,<br />
which permits transmission over longer distances <strong>and</strong> at higher data rates than other forms<br />
of communications. Fibers are used instead of metal wires because signals travel along<br />
them with less loss, <strong>and</strong> they are immune to electromagnetic interference. Optical fibers are<br />
also used to form sensors, <strong>and</strong> in a variety of other applications.<br />
In 1952, physicist Narinder Singh Kapany conducted experiments that led to the invention of<br />
optical fiber, based on Tyndall's earlier studies; modern optical fibers, where the glass fiber<br />
is coated with a transparent cladding to offer a more suitable refractive index, appeared later<br />
in the decade.<br />
In 1991, the emerging field of photonic crystals led to the development of photonic crystal<br />
fiber (Science (2003), vol 299, page 358), which guides light by means of diffraction from a<br />
periodic structure, rather than total internal reflection. <strong>The</strong> first photonic crystal fibers<br />
became commercially available in 1996. Photonic crystal fibers can be designed to carry<br />
higher power than conventional fiber, <strong>and</strong> their wavelength dependent properties can be<br />
manipulated to improve their performance in certain applications."<br />

224 "... fabrics of the interior of the craft..."<br />
"Technical textiles is the term given to textile products manufactured for non aesthetic<br />
purposes, where function is the primary criterion. This is a large <strong>and</strong> growing sector <strong>and</strong><br />
supports a vast array of other industries.<br />
It has been heard that soon textiles will be merged with electronics in all areas. In future<br />
wearable computers would be launched, these will not be like advance wrist watches etc,<br />
306
they will contain IC s in fabric to develop fabric keyboards <strong>and</strong> other wearable computer<br />
devices. <strong>The</strong>se types of products are known as Interactive electronic textiles (IET).<br />
Research to support IET development is being conducted in many universities. Growing<br />
consumer interest in mobile, electronic devises will initiate the dem<strong>and</strong> for IET products.<br />
Technical textiles include textile structures for autmotive applications, medical textiles<br />
(e.g. implants), geotextiles (reinforcement of embankments), agrotextiles (textiles for crop<br />
protection), protective clothing (e.g. against heat <strong>and</strong> radiation for fire figther clothing,<br />
against molten metals for welders, stab protection <strong>and</strong> bulletproof vests), spacesuits<br />
(astronauts)."<br />
Biotextiles are structures composed of textile fibers designed for use in specific biological<br />
environments where their performance depends on biocompatibility <strong>and</strong> biostability with cells<br />
<strong>and</strong> biological fluids. Biotextiles include implantible devices such as surgical sutures, hernia<br />
repair fabrics, arterial grafts, artificial skin <strong>and</strong> parts of artificial hearts. <strong>The</strong>y were first<br />
created 30 years ago (1978) by Dr. Martin W. King, a professor in North Carolina State<br />
University’s College of Textiles.<br />
Medical textiles are a broader group which also includes b<strong>and</strong>ages, wound dressings,<br />
hospital linen, preventive clothing etc. Antiseptic biotextiles are textiles used in fighting<br />
against cutaneous bacterial proliferation. Zeolite <strong>and</strong> triclosan are at the present time the<br />
most used molecules. This original property allows to inhibits the development of odors or<br />
bacterial proliferation in the diabetic foot."<br />

"... mechanisms for creating, amplifying <strong>and</strong> channeling light particles or waves<br />
as a form of energy."<br />
In 1947, Willis E. Lamb <strong>and</strong> R. C. Retherford found apparent stimulated emission in<br />
hydrogen spectra <strong>and</strong> made the first demonstration of stimulated emission. In 1950, Alfred<br />
Kastler (Nobel Prize for Physics 1966) proposed the method of optical pumping.<br />
<strong>The</strong> work of Schawlow <strong>and</strong> Townes, however, can be traced back to the 1940s<strong>and</strong> early<br />
50s* <strong>and</strong> their interest in the field of microwave spectroscopy, which had emerged as a<br />
powerful tool for puzzling out the characteristics of a wide variety of molecules.<br />
<strong>The</strong> invention of the laser, which st<strong>and</strong>s for light amplification by stimulated emission of<br />
radiation, can be dated to 1958 with the publication of the scientific paper, Infrared <strong>and</strong><br />
Optical Masers, by Arthur L. Schawlow, then a Bell Labs researcher, <strong>and</strong> Charles H.<br />
Townes, a consultant to Bell Labs. That paper, published in Physical Review, the journal of<br />
the American Physical Society, launched a new scientific field <strong>and</strong> opened the door to a<br />
multibillion-dollar industry.<br />
Many different materials can be used as lasers. Some, like the ruby laser, emit short pulses<br />
of laser light. Others, like helium-neon gas lasers or liquid dye lasers emit a continuous<br />
beam of light.<br />
*NOTE: According to the book, "<strong>The</strong> Day After Roswell", reports about microwave <strong>and</strong> light<br />
projecting components from the Roswell "flying disc", technology were "leaked" to Bell<br />

226 " <strong>The</strong>re are as many universes as there are IS-BEs to imagine <strong>and</strong> perceive them,<br />
existing concurrently within it's own continuum."<br />
<strong>The</strong> multiverse (or meta-universe) is the hypothetical set of multiple possible universes<br />
(including our universe) that together comprise all of reality. <strong>The</strong> different universes within<br />
the multiverse are sometimes called parallel universes. <strong>The</strong> structure of the multiverse, the<br />
nature of each universe within it <strong>and</strong> the relationship between the various constituent<br />
universes, depend on the specific multiverse hypothesis considered.<br />
Multiverses have been hypothesized in cosmology, physics, astronomy, philosophy,<br />
theology, <strong>and</strong> fiction, particularly in science fiction <strong>and</strong> fantasy.<br />
<strong>The</strong> specific term "multiverse," which was coined by William James, was popularized by<br />
science fiction author Michael Moorcock. In these contexts, parallel universes are also<br />
called "alternative universes," "quantum universes," "parallel worlds," "alternate realities,"<br />
"alternative timelines," etc.<br />
A multiverse of a somewhat different kind has been envisaged within the 11-dimensional<br />
extension of string theory known as M-theory. In M-theory our universe <strong>and</strong> others are<br />
created by collisions between membranes in an 11-dimensional space. This is unlike the<br />
universes in the "quantum multiverse".<br />
<strong>The</strong> string l<strong>and</strong>scape theory asserts that a different universe exists for each of the very large<br />
ensemble of solutions generated when ten dimensional string theory is reduced to the fourdimensional<br />
low-energy world we see.<br />
"A common feature of all four multiverse levels is that the simplest <strong>and</strong> arguably most<br />
elegant theory involves parallel universes by default. To deny the existence of those<br />
universes, one needs to complicate the theory by adding experimentally unsupported<br />
processes <strong>and</strong> ad hoc postulates: finite space, wave function collapse <strong>and</strong> ontological<br />
asymmetry. Our judgment therefore comes down to which we find more wasteful <strong>and</strong><br />
inelegant: many worlds or many words."<br />

228 "... just before the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor..."<br />
"<strong>The</strong> attack on Pearl Harbor was a surprise attack against the United States' naval base at<br />
Pearl Harbor, Hawaii by the Japanese navy, at 0800 hours on the morning of Sunday,<br />
December 7, 1941, resulting in the United States becoming involved in World War II.<br />
Hostilities between the U.S. <strong>and</strong> Japan were expected by many observers, including<br />
President Roosevelt, who read a decrypted Japanese message (on December 1st, 1941)<br />
<strong>and</strong> told his assistant Harry Hopkins, "This means war."<br />
At 03:42 Hawaiian Time, hours before comm<strong>and</strong>ing Admiral Chuichi Nagumo began<br />
launching strike aircraft, the minesweeper USS Condor spotted a midget submarine outside<br />
the harbor entrance <strong>and</strong> alerted destroyer USS Ward. Ward was initially unsuccessful in<br />
locating the target. Hours later, Ward fired America's first shots in the Pacific theater of WWII<br />
when she attacked <strong>and</strong> sank a midget submarine, perhaps the same one, at 06:37.<br />
Closer to the moment of the attack, the attacking planes were detected <strong>and</strong> tracked as they<br />
approached by an Army radar installation being operated that morning as a mostly unofficial<br />
training exercise. <strong>The</strong> Opana Point radar station, operated by two enlisted men (Pvts.<br />
Lockard <strong>and</strong> Elliot) plotted the approaching force, <strong>and</strong> their relief team plotted them returning<br />
to the carriers. <strong>The</strong> initial radar returns were thought, by the ill-trained junior officer (Lt.<br />
Kermit A. Tyler) in charge at the barely operational warning information center at Pearl<br />
Harbor, to be a flight of American bombers expected from the mainl<strong>and</strong>. In fact those<br />
bombers did arrive, from a somewhat different bearing in the middle of the attack.<br />
Additionally, Japanese submarines were sighted <strong>and</strong> attacked (by USS Ward) outside the<br />
harbor entrance a few hours before the attack commenced, <strong>and</strong> at least one was sunk—all<br />
before the planes came within even radar range. This might have provided enough notice to<br />
disperse aircraft <strong>and</strong> fly off reconnaissance, except, yet again, reactions of the duty officers<br />
were tardy. It has been argued failure to follow up on DF bearings saved USS Enterprise. If<br />
she had been correctly directed, she might have run into the six carrier Japanese strike<br />
force.<br />
After the attack, the search for the attack force was concentrated south of Pearl Harbor,<br />
continuing the confusion <strong>and</strong> ineffectiveness of the American response.<br />
Another issue in the debate is the fact neither Admiral Kimmel nor General Short ever faced<br />
court martial. It is alleged this was to avoid disclosing information conspirators would not<br />
want to see made public. When asked, Kimmel replied, "Will historians know more later?<br />
Kimmel's reply to this was: ' ... I'll tell you what I believe. I think that most of the incriminating<br />
records have been destroyed. ... I doubt if the truth will ever emerge.' ..." . It is equally,<br />
probably more, likely this was done to avoid disclosing the fact Japanese codes were being<br />
read, given there was a war on."<br />

"Soon after the attack on Pearl Harbor <strong>and</strong> the US entry into World War II, Doolittle was<br />
promoted to Lieutenant Colonel on January 2, 1942, <strong>and</strong> went to Headquarters Army Air<br />
Force to plan the first aerial raid on the Japanese homel<strong>and</strong>. He volunteered <strong>and</strong> received<br />
Gen. H.H. Arnold's approval to lead the attack of 16 B-25 medium bombers from the aircraft<br />
carrier USS Hornet, with targets in Tokyo, Kobe, Osaka, <strong>and</strong> Nagoya. It was the first <strong>and</strong><br />
only combat mission of his military career.<br />
Doolittle received the Medal of Honor, presented by President Franklin D. Roosevelt at the<br />
White House, for planning <strong>and</strong> leading the successful operation. <strong>The</strong> Doolittle Raid is viewed<br />
by historians as a major public-relations victory for the United States. Although the amount of<br />
damage done to Japanese war industry was minor, the raid showed the Japanese their<br />
homel<strong>and</strong> was not invulnerable.<br />
Doolittle was portrayed by Spencer Tracy in the 1944 film Thirty Seconds Over Tokyo <strong>and</strong> by<br />

234 "... Charles Lindbergh was also in the office..."<br />
"Charles Lindbergh gained sudden great international fame as the first pilot to fly solo across<br />
the Atlantic Ocean. He flew from Roosevelt Airfield in Garden City, New York, to Paris (Le<br />
Bourget Airport) on 20 May - 21 May 1927 in 33.5 hours. His plane was the single-engine<br />
aircraft, <strong>The</strong> Spirit of St. Louis.<br />
Lindbergh's accomplishment won him the Orteig Prize; more significant than the prize<br />
money was the acclaim that resulted from his daring flight. A ticker-tape parade was held for<br />
him down 5th Avenue in New York City on 13 June 1927.<br />
His public stature following this flight was such that he became an important voice on behalf<br />
of aviation activities, including the central committee of the National Advisory Committee for<br />
Aeronautics in the United States. <strong>The</strong> massive publicity surrounding him <strong>and</strong> his flight<br />
boosted the aircraft industry <strong>and</strong> made a skeptical public take air travel seriously. Lindbergh<br />
is recognized in aviation for demonstrating <strong>and</strong> charting polar air-routes, high altitude flying<br />
techniques, <strong>and</strong> increasing aircraft flying range by decreasing fuel consumption. <strong>The</strong>se<br />
innovations are the basis of modern intercontinental air travel.<br />
In his six months during WW II in the Pacific in 1944, Lindbergh took part in fighter bomber<br />
raids on Japanese positions, flying about 50 combat missions (as a civilian). <strong>The</strong> U.S.<br />
Marine <strong>and</strong> Army Air Force pilots who served with Lindbergh admired <strong>and</strong> respected him,<br />
praising his courage <strong>and</strong> defending his patriotism.<br />
After World War II he lived quietly in Connecticut as a consultant both to the chief of staff of<br />
the U.S. Air Force <strong>and</strong> to Pan American World Airways. His 1953 book <strong>The</strong> Spirit of St.<br />
Louis, recounting his non-stop transatlantic flight, won the Pulitzer Prize in 1954.<br />
Dwight D. Eisenhower restored Lindbergh's assignment with the Army Air Corps <strong>and</strong> made<br />
him a Brigadier General in 1954. In that year, he served on the Congressional advisory<br />
panel set up to establish the site of the United States Air Force Academy. In December<br />
1968, he visited the crew of Apollo 8 on the eve of the first manned spaceflight to leave earth<br />
orbit.<br />
From the 1960s on, Lindbergh became an advocate for the conservation of the natural<br />
world, campaigning to protect endangered species like humpback <strong>and</strong> blue whales, was<br />
instrumental in establishing protections for the "primitive" Filipino group the Tasaday <strong>and</strong><br />
African tribes, <strong>and</strong> supporting the establishment of a national park. While studying the native<br />
311
flora <strong>and</strong> fauna of the Philippines, he also became involved in an effort to protect the<br />
Philippine eagle.<br />
In his final years, Lindbergh became troubled that the world was out of balance with<br />
its natural environment; he stressed the need to regain that balance, <strong>and</strong> spoke against<br />
the introduction of supersonic airliners.<br />
Lindbergh's speeches <strong>and</strong> writings later in life emphasized his love of both<br />
technology <strong>and</strong> nature, <strong>and</strong> a lifelong belief that "all the achievements of mankind<br />
have value only to the extent that they preserve <strong>and</strong> improve the quality of life."<br />
In a 1967 Life magazine article, he said, "<strong>The</strong> human future depends on our ability to<br />
combine the knowledge of science with the wisdom of wildness."<br />

Is the author of the following article, published in the American Journal of Psychiatry<br />
in August of 1947:<br />
"A Review of Over 23,000 Treatments Using Unidirectional Currents<br />
1. Forty percent of the most chronic patients showed significant improvement in ward<br />
behavior if adequately <strong>and</strong> repeatedly treated with suitable type of electroshock therapy.<br />
Relapses must be treated whenever they occur over months <strong>and</strong> years.<br />
2. At least 60% of early cases, aged 60 or under, were rehabilitated within 1 year when<br />
adequately treated <strong>and</strong> 65% by the end of the second year after the start of treatment.<br />
3. Adequate treatment means intensive treatment until the expected improvement has<br />
occurred <strong>and</strong> intensive treatment of relapses when they occur. No patient, otherwise suitable<br />
who still is not rehabilitated after 1 year, has had an adequate trial of treatment with less than<br />
20 treatments.<br />
4. An ideal therapy is one which achieves beneficial results without causing accumulating<br />
brain damage, thus permitting its use repeatedly for years if necessary.<br />
5. This ideal is approached by the relatively low intensity 60-cycle pulsating direct current<br />
used in the treatment of the patients reviewed in this paper. This technique also has been<br />
accompanied by an exceptionally low percentage of skeletal complications."<br />

237 "...introduced himself as Mr. John Reid ..."<br />
"John Edward Reid, American criminologist developed a Polygraph in 1945 which was<br />
a scientific recording device designed to register a person's bodily responses to being<br />
questioned. Popularly known as a lie detector, the polygraph has been used chiefly in<br />
criminal investigations, although it is also used in employment <strong>and</strong> security screening<br />
practices. Because no machine can unerringly recognize when a person is lying, the<br />
polygraph results are used in conjunction with other evidence, observations, <strong>and</strong> information.<br />
Emotional stress reflected by this test, for instance, need not be due to lying. On the other<br />
h<strong>and</strong>, a subject may be a pathological liar <strong>and</strong> therefore show no measurable bodily<br />
responses when giving false answers. Ordinary nervousness, individual physical or mental<br />
abnormalities, discomfort, excessive pretest interrogation, or indifference to a question also<br />
affect test accuracy. <strong>The</strong> polygraph can, however, provide a basis for an evaluation of<br />
whether or not the subject's answers are truthful. This test has also been helpful in<br />
exonerating innocent persons accused of crimes.<br />
A polygraph is actually several instruments combined to simultaneously record changes in<br />
blood pressure, pulse, <strong>and</strong> respiration. <strong>The</strong> electrical conductivity of the skin's surface can<br />
also be measured—increased sweat-gl<strong>and</strong> activity reduces the skin's ability to carry<br />
electrical current."<br />

238 "...lie detector testing..."<br />
"Dr. William Moulton Marston (May 9, 1893 – May 2, 1947) was an American psychologist,<br />
feminist theorist, inventor, <strong>and</strong> comic book author who created the character Wonder<br />
Woman. Two strong women, his wife Elizabeth Holloway Marston <strong>and</strong> Olive Byrne, (who<br />
lived with the couple in a polyamorous relationship), served as exemplars for the character<br />
<strong>and</strong> greatly influenced her creation.<br />
Dr. William Moulton Marston is credited as the creator of the systolic blood-pressure test<br />
used in an attempt to detect deception, which became one component of the modern<br />
polygraph. According to their son, Marston's wife, Elizabeth Holloway Marston, was also<br />
involved in the development of the systolic blood-pressure test: "According to Marston’s son,<br />
it was his mother Elizabeth, Marston’s wife, who suggested to him that 'When she got mad<br />
or excited, her blood pressure seemed to climb'. This would be the basis for Wonder<br />
Woman's Lasso of Truth.<br />
<strong>The</strong> FBI considered William Moulton Marston, who invented the lie detector <strong>and</strong> created<br />
the comic book character Wonder Woman under the pseudonym Charles Moulton, to be a<br />
'phony' <strong>and</strong> a 'crackpot.' He is alleged to have misrepresented the result of a study he<br />
conducted for the Gillette razor company in 1938, for which he reportedly received some<br />
$30,000, a h<strong>and</strong>some sum in those days. Despite these misgivings, the FBI today uses<br />
Marston's creation (the polygraph, not the Lasso of Truth) to guide investigations as well<br />
as to screen applicants <strong>and</strong> employees."<br />

239 "...truth serum..."<br />
"Sodium thiopental, better known as Sodium Pentothal (a trademark of Abbott<br />
Laboratories), thiopental, thiopentone sodium, or trapanal, is a rapid-onset short-acting<br />
barbiturate general anaesthetic. It is an intravenous ultra-short-acting barbiturate. Sodium<br />
thiopental is a depressant <strong>and</strong> is sometimes used during interrogations - not to cause pain<br />
(in fact, it may have just the opposite effect), but to weaken the resolve of the subject <strong>and</strong><br />
make him or her more compliant to pressure.<br />
Thiopental is still used in some places as a truth serum. <strong>The</strong> barbiturates as a class<br />
decrease higher cortical brain functioning. Psychiatrists hypothesize that because lying is<br />
more complex than telling the truth, suppression of the higher cortical functions may lead to<br />
the uncovering of the "truth". However, the reliability of confessions made under thiopental is<br />
dubious; the drug tends to make subjects chatty <strong>and</strong> cooperative with interrogators, but a<br />
practiced liar or someone who has a false story firmly established would still be quite able to<br />
lie while under the influence of the drug."<br />

240 "...the Witness Protection Program..."<br />
"(also known as the Witness Security Program, or WitSec) was established under Title V<br />
of the Organized Crime Control Act of 1970, which in turn sets out the manner in which the<br />
U.S. Attorney General may provide for the relocation <strong>and</strong> protection of a witness or potential<br />
witness of the federal government, or for a state government in an official proceeding<br />
concerning organized crime or other serious offenses. See 18 U.S.C.A 3521 et. seq.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Federal Government also gives grants to the states to enable them to provide similar<br />
services. <strong>The</strong> federal program is called WITSEC (the Federal Witness Protection Program)<br />
<strong>and</strong> was founded in the late 1960s by Gerald Shur when he was in the Organized Crime <strong>and</strong><br />
Racketeering Section of the United States Department of Justice. Most witnesses are<br />
protected by the U.S. Marshals Service, while protection of incarcerated witnesses is the<br />
duty of the Federal Bureau of Prisons.<br />
Normally, the witness is provided with a new name <strong>and</strong> location. Witnesses are encouraged<br />
to keep their first names <strong>and</strong> choose last names with the same initial. <strong>The</strong> U.S. Marshals<br />
Service provides new documentation, assists in finding housing <strong>and</strong> employment <strong>and</strong><br />
provides a stipend until the witness gets on his or her feet, but the stipend can be<br />
discontinued if the U.S. Marshals Service feels that the witness is not making an aggressive<br />
effort to find a job. Witnesses are not to travel back to their hometowns or contact<br />
unprotected family members or former associates. Around 17 percent of protected witnesses<br />
that have committed a crime will commit another crime, compared to the almost 40 percent<br />
of parolees who return to crime. This has led to action by Congressional committees<br />
requiring WITSEC <strong>and</strong> other witness protection programs to notify local officials of a witness'<br />
transfer before relocating them.<br />
Many states, including California, Illinois, <strong>and</strong> New York, have their own witness protection<br />
programs for crimes not covered by the federal program. <strong>The</strong> state-run programs provide<br />
less extensive protections than the federal program."<br />

241 "... Suleiman the Magnificent..."<br />
"Suleiman I (Ottoman Turkish: Sulaymān, Turkish: Süleyman; almost always<br />
Kanuni Sultan Süleyman in Turkish) (November 6, 1494 – September 5/6, 1566), was the<br />
tenth <strong>and</strong> longest-reigning Sultan of the Ottoman Empire, from 1520 to his death in 1566. He<br />
is known in the West as Suleiman the Magnificent <strong>and</strong> in the East, as the Lawgiver (in<br />
Turkish Kanuni; Arabic: , alQānūnī), for his complete reconstruction of the<br />
Ottoman legal system. Suleiman became the pre-eminent monarch of 16th century Europe,<br />
presiding over the apex of the Ottoman Empire's military, political <strong>and</strong> economic power.<br />
Suleiman personally led Ottoman armies to conquer the Christian strongholds of Belgrade,<br />
Rhodes, <strong>and</strong> most of Hungary before his conquests were checked at the Siege of Vienna in<br />
1529. He annexed most of the Middle East in his conflict with the Persians <strong>and</strong> large<br />
swathes of North Africa as far west as Algeria. Under his rule, the Ottoman fleet dominated<br />
the seas from the Mediterranean to the Indian Ocean.<br />
At the helm of an exp<strong>and</strong>ing empire, Suleiman personally instituted legislative changes<br />
relating to society, education, taxation, <strong>and</strong> criminal law. His canonical law (or the Kanuns)<br />
fixed the form of the empire for centuries after his death. Not only was Suleiman a<br />
distinguished poet <strong>and</strong> goldsmith in his own right; he also became a great patron of culture,<br />
overseeing the golden age of the Ottoman Empire's artistic, literary <strong>and</strong> architectural<br />
development.<br />
In a break with Ottoman tradition, Suleiman married a harem girl who became Hürrem<br />
Sultan, whose intrigues in the court <strong>and</strong> power over the Sultan have become as famous as<br />
Suleiman himself."<br />
-- Reference: Wikipedia.org<br />
242 "... His assistant was a harem girl who rose up from slavery to become his wife..."<br />
" According to late sixteenth century <strong>and</strong> early seventeenth century sources such as the<br />
Polish poet Samuel Twardowski, she was born in the town which was then part of the<br />
Kingdom of Pol<strong>and</strong>. She was captured by Crimean Tatars during one of their frequent raids<br />
into this region <strong>and</strong> taken as a slave, probably first to the Crimean city of Kaffa, a major<br />
centre of the slave trade, then to Istanbul, <strong>and</strong> was selected for Süleyman's harem.<br />
Suleiman was infatuated with Hurrem Sultan, a harem girl of Ruthenian origin. In the West<br />
foreign diplomats, taking notice of the palace gossip about her, called her "Russelazie" or<br />
"Roxolana", referring to her Slavic origins. <strong>The</strong> daughter of an Orthodox Ukrainian priest,<br />
she was captured <strong>and</strong> rose through the ranks of the Harem to become Suleiman's favorite.<br />
Breaking with two centuries of Ottoman tradition, a former concubine had thus<br />
become the legal wife of the Sultan, much to the astonishment of observers in the palace<br />
<strong>and</strong> the city. He also allowed Hurrem Sultan to remain with him at court for the rest of<br />
her life, breaking another tradition—that when imperial heirs came of age, they would be<br />
sent along with the imperial concubine who bore them to govern remote provinces of the<br />
Empire, never to return unless their progeny succeeded to the throne.<br />
Under his pen name, Muhibbi, Suleiman composed this poem for Roxolana:<br />
"Throne of my lonely niche, my wealth, my love, my moonlight.<br />
My most sincere friend, my confidant, my very existence, my Sultan, my one <strong>and</strong> only love.<br />
315
<strong>The</strong> most beautiful among the beautiful…<br />
My springtime, my merry faced love, my daytime, my sweetheart, laughing leaf…<br />
My plants, my sweet, my rose, the one only who does not distress me in this world…<br />
My Istanbul, my Caraman, the earth of my Anatolia<br />
My Badakhshan, my Baghdad <strong>and</strong> Khorasan<br />
My woman of the beautiful hair, my love of the slanted brow, my love of eyes full of<br />
mischief…<br />
I'll sing your praises always<br />
I, lover of the tormented heart, Muhibbi of the eyes full of tears, I am happy."<br />
Roxelana, as she is better known in Europe, is well-known both in modern Turkey <strong>and</strong> in the<br />
West, <strong>and</strong> is the subject of many artistic works. She has inspired paintings, musical<br />
works (including Joseph Haydn's Symphony No. 63), an opera by Denys Sichynsky, a<br />
ballet, plays, <strong>and</strong> several novels."<br />

243 "... Queen Elizabeth..."<br />
Elizabeth I (7 September 1533 – 24 March 1603) was Queen of Engl<strong>and</strong> <strong>and</strong> Queen of<br />
Irel<strong>and</strong> from 17 November 1558 until her death. Sometimes called <strong>The</strong> Virgin Queen,<br />
Gloriana, <strong>The</strong> Faerie Queen or Good Queen Bess, Elizabeth was the fifth <strong>and</strong> last monarch<br />
of the Tudor dynasty. <strong>The</strong> daughter of Henry VIII, she was born a princess, but her mother,<br />
Anne Boleyn, was executed three years after her birth, <strong>and</strong> Elizabeth was declared<br />
illegitimate. Perhaps for that reason, her brother, Edward VI, cut her out of the succession.<br />
His will, however, was set aside, as it contravened the Third Succession Act of 1543, in<br />
which Elizabeth was named as successor provided that Mary I of Engl<strong>and</strong>, Elizabeth's halfsister,<br />
should die without issue. In 1558, Elizabeth succeeded her half-sister, during whose<br />
reign she had been imprisoned for nearly a year on suspicion of supporting Protestant<br />
rebels.<br />
Elizabeth set out to rule by good counsel. One of her first moves was to support the<br />
establishment of an English Protestant church, of which she became the Supreme Governor.<br />
This Elizabethan Religious Settlement held firm throughout her reign <strong>and</strong> later evolved into<br />
today's Church of Engl<strong>and</strong>. It was expected that Elizabeth would marry, but despite several<br />
petitions from parliament, she never did. <strong>The</strong> reasons for this choice are unknown, <strong>and</strong> they<br />
have been much debated. As she grew older, Elizabeth became famous for her virginity,<br />
<strong>and</strong> a cult grew up around her which was celebrated in the portraits, pageants <strong>and</strong> literature<br />
of the day.<br />
One of her mottos was video et taceo: "I see, <strong>and</strong> say nothing".<br />
This strategy, viewed with impatience by her counselors, often saved her from political <strong>and</strong><br />
marital misalliances. Though Elizabeth was cautious in foreign affairs <strong>and</strong> only half-heartedly<br />
supported a number of ineffective, poorly resourced military campaigns in the Netherl<strong>and</strong>s,<br />
France <strong>and</strong> Irel<strong>and</strong>, the defeat of the Spanish armada in 1588 associated her name<br />
forever with what is popularly viewed as one of the greatest victories in British<br />
history. Within twenty years of her death, she was being celebrated as the ruler of a<br />
golden age, an image that retains its hold on the English people. Elizabeth's reign is known<br />
as the Elizabethan era, famous above all for the flourishing of English drama, led by<br />
playwrights such as William Shakespeare <strong>and</strong> Christopher Marlowe."<br />

244 "... he was incarnated as Cecil Rhodes."<br />
Cecil John Rhodes, (July 5, 1853 – March 26, 1902) was a British-born South African<br />
businessman, mining magnate, <strong>and</strong> politician. He was the founder of the diamond company<br />
De Beers, which today markets 60% of the world's rough diamonds <strong>and</strong> at one time<br />
marketed 90%. He was an ardent believer in colonialism <strong>and</strong> was the founder of the state of<br />
Rhodesia, which was named after him.<br />
Rhodes profited greatly from controlling Southern Africa's natural resources, the proceeds of<br />
which funded the Rhodes Scholarship upon his death. Rhodes never married, pleading<br />
that "I have too much work on my h<strong>and</strong>s" <strong>and</strong> saying that he would not be a dutiful<br />
husb<strong>and</strong>. Queen Victoria reportedly asked him if he was a woman-hater, which Rhodes<br />
denied insisting “How could I dislike a sex to which your Majesty belongs?”<br />
Rhodes famously declared:<br />
"To think of these stars that you see overhead at night, these vast worlds which we<br />
can never reach. I would annex the planets if I could; I often think of that. It makes me<br />
sad to see them so clear <strong>and</strong> yet so far."<br />

William Kelly (August 22, 1811 - February 11, 1888), born in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, was<br />
an American inventor. Kelly studied metallurgy at the Western University of Pennsylvania.<br />
Kelly started experimenting with his "air-boiling process," a process of blowing air up through<br />
molten iron to reduce the carbon content, in 1847. His initial goal was to reduce the amount<br />
of fuel required for iron <strong>and</strong> steel making, because of the immense amount of timber<br />
required to make the charcoal. He discovered that, contrary to the expectations of his iron<br />
workers, the injected air did not cool the molten iron, but instead combined with the carbon<br />
to cause the iron to boil <strong>and</strong> burn violently until the carbon was greatly reduced, improving<br />
the quality of the iron or converting it to steel. His experiments began in 1847. <strong>The</strong> same<br />
process was later independently invented <strong>and</strong> patented by Henry Bessemer."<br />

manufacturing of steel. Patents of such obvious value did not escape criticism, <strong>and</strong><br />
invalidity was freely urged against them on various grounds. But Bessemer was fortunate<br />
enough to maintain them intact without litigation, though he found it advisable to buy up the<br />
rights of one patentee, while in another case he was freed from anxiety by the patent being<br />
allowed to lapse in 1859 through non-payment of fees."<br />

248 " Another IS-BE who did this was Alex<strong>and</strong>er Bell..."<br />
"As is sometimes common in scientific discoveries, simultaneous developments can occur,<br />
as evidenced by a number of inventors who were at work on the telephone.<br />
Alex<strong>and</strong>er Graham Bell (3 March 1847 – 2 August 1922) was an eminent scientist, inventor<br />
<strong>and</strong> innovator who is credited with the invention of the telephone. His father, gr<strong>and</strong>father <strong>and</strong><br />
brother had all been associated with work on elocution <strong>and</strong> speech, <strong>and</strong> both his mother<br />
<strong>and</strong> wife were deaf, profoundly influencing Bell's life's work. His research on hearing<br />
<strong>and</strong> speech further led him to experiment with hearing devices that eventually culminated<br />
in Bell being awarded the first U.S. patent for the invention of the telephone in 1876.<br />
In reflection, Bell considered his most famous invention an intrusion on his real work as a<br />
scientist <strong>and</strong> refused to have a telephone in his study."<br />
-- Reference: Wikipedia.org<br />
249 ..." it was invented by several others, including Elisha Gray."<br />
"Elisha Gray (August 2, 1835 – January 21, 1901) was an American electrical engineer <strong>and</strong><br />
is best known for his development of a telephone prototype in 1876 in Highl<strong>and</strong> Park, Illinois,<br />
U.S.A.. Mr. Elisha Gray, of Chicago also devised a tone telegraph of this kind about the<br />
same time as Herr La Cour. In this apparatus a vibrating steel reed interrupted the current,<br />
which at the other end of the line passed through an electromagnet <strong>and</strong> vibrated a matching<br />
steel reed near its poles. Gray's 'harmonic telegraph,' with the vibrating reeds, was used by<br />
the Western Union Telegraph Company. Since more than one set of vibrations — that is to<br />
say, more than one note — can be sent over the same wire simultaneously, the harmonic<br />
telegraph can be utilised as a 'multiplex' or many-ply telegraph, conveying several messages<br />
through the same wire at once; <strong>and</strong> these can either be read by the operator by the sound,<br />
or a permanent record can be made by the marks drawn on a ribbon of travelling paper by a<br />
Morse recorder. Bell's March 10, 1876 laboratory notebook entry describing his first<br />
successful experiment with the telephone.<br />
Bell's patent application for the telephone was filed in the US patent office on February 14,<br />
1876. <strong>The</strong> usual story says that Bell got to the patent office an hour or two before his<br />
rival Elisha Gray, <strong>and</strong> that Gray lost his rights to the telephone as a result.<br />
318
According to Gray's account, his patent caveat was taken to the US patent office a few<br />
hours before Bell's application, shortly after the patent office opened <strong>and</strong> remained near the<br />
bottom of the in-basket until that afternoon. Bell's application was filed shortly before noon<br />
on 14 February by Bell's lawyer who requested that the filing fee be entered immediately<br />
onto the cash receipts blotter <strong>and</strong> that Bell's application be taken to the examiner<br />
immediately. Late that afternoon, the fee for Gray's caveat was entered on the cash blotter<br />
<strong>and</strong> the caveat was not taken to the examiner until the following day. <strong>The</strong> fact that Bell's<br />
filing fee was recorded earlier than Gray's fee led to the story that Bell had arrived at the<br />
patent office earlier. Bell was in Boston on February 14 <strong>and</strong> did not know this was happening<br />
until he arrived in Washington on February 26. Whether Bell's application was filed before or<br />
after Gray's caveat no longer mattered, because Gray ab<strong>and</strong>oned his caveat, which opened<br />
the door to Bell being granted U.S. Patent 174,465 for the telephone on 7 March 1876."<br />
