Re: WADE FRAZIER : A Healed Planet
Hi:
Quickly, before I go to work. In Homer-Dixon’s book:
http://projectavalon.net/forum4/show...xon#post440998
he repeated an observation from biology:
http://projectavalon.net/forum4/show...l=1#post445450
where systems that have slack in them, or resilience, are better able to withstand impacts before unraveling. The twin koans of capitalism are efficiency and profits. But in order to do that, systems often sacrifice resilience. Sacrificing resilience for efficiency to skim profits is what makes systems vulnerable to collapse, like we saw with the heavily leveraged financial system’s collapse in 2007-2009. The crazy part is that the leverage is still largely with us, as the governments stepped in to bail out their banking buddies with taxpayer money. As the world runs out of oil, the resilience will decline, leading to susceptibility to collapse. This is one of the primary fears of the Peak Oilers and others.
FE makes all of those fears disappear. Again, it can be surreal to see the heavily entrenched denial of FE that comes from almost all quarters, especially by people who are educated about the energy situation. The Level 3s:

have the most invincible denial that I have encountered. I think it is similar to them being the most threatened by the ET reality:

Going to work now.

Re: WADE FRAZIER : A Healed Planet
Hi:
After months of unsuccessful attempts to obtain permission from Brian’s family to publish an essay on Brian O that included some specifics on what Brian believed was an attempt on his life, I decided to remove the identifying information (I would never name the perpetrators, but I was giving specifics that people could check out for themselves) and publish the essay:
http://www.ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm
I have not linked to it from my home page yet, but I consider the essay published with this Avalon post.
I intended to disclose that alleged murder attempt to help sober up those who are thinking of playing this game. It is a rough road, and if I ever took my show on the road, I would be risking my life, in several ways. I have no desire to field death threats and murder attempts, and it comes with that territory. I will say that the alleged murder attempt that Brian survived was related to public events that he helped organize and participate in.
I still have some more legacy work to do regarding Brian, and we will see how it goes.
I have a busy weekend ahead of me.
Best,
Wade
