Hi Serg:
My brother had a child by a Filipino woman in Hawaii, and yes, the Filipinos are into their fireworks. The bigger the better. Maybe in the early Fifth Epoch, they can tow an asteroid into low earth orbit and blow it up. :) That would be quite the spectacle. Seriously, when people experience their own personal power, spectacles like that will become meaningless.
Best,

Hi:
Until mid-May, my life will be crazy, with little free time. When I finish the series of lessons learned posts (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page5?p=687&viewfull=1), I plan to work on the essay update, and may work on it some before then. Already, 2017 promises to be an “interesting” year.
I read three Peak Oiler (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#peakoil) analyses for the coming year (1 (https://srsroccoreport.com/the-implosion-of-global-markets-has-started-cant-be-stopped/), 2 (https://www.theburningplatform.com/2016/12/31/a-biased-2017-forecast-part-one/), 3 (http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-01-02/2017-when-wheels-finally-come)), and I have to give them credit for understanding that the financial economy is only an abstraction of the real economy, and often resembles a house of cards. Today, it is definitely a house of cards, with the insane money printing and zero-to-negative interest rates engaged in by the world’s biggest central banks. China has actually blown the biggest bubble of all, incredibly, and when this global bubble pops, it will dwarf what happened in 2007-2009. The Fed has been playing the easy money game for a generation now, but when the third bubble pops in less than 20 years, maybe they are not going to be allowed to do it again. It could really hit the fan, globally, in the wake of that manmade disaster, which could include wars that have not been seen since World War II, and perhaps far worse, in a nuclear way. Can I fast-forward to the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5)? :)
Money printing is really a form of taxation on those who use that particular currency, as their money (which is only a claim on the government issuing it) is cheapened by printing more money. Eventually, the currency becomes worthless. Every fiat currency in history has been ruined this way. It is pretty simple, really, but just like how Global Warming deniers (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/90-Global-Warming-Peak-Oil-and-related-topics?p=463&viewfull=1#post463) get lost in the weeds, so do those who think that money printing is some path to endless prosperity. The central bankers portray themselves as the keepers of arcane knowledge, but that it is a Big Lie. Money printing is no solution. It is a path of least resistance, as other interventions require actual real action, policy changes, and real economic changes, while any fool can get a printing press going, and as the money is increasingly electronic, all that the “money printer” has to do is use a computer keyboard for a minute.
As those Peak Oilers know, all the money printing and other obfuscations cannot hide the fact that the world is quickly running out of energy, which is first manifesting in the end of cheap energy, with those high EROIs (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#eroi1). The so-called fracking boom is a fraud, and is nothing more than sucking at the dregs (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#dregs). It is absolutely insane to call it some kind solution or path to America’s “energy independence,” but all manner of financial economy pundit parrots that idiocy.
Best,
Wade

Hi:
I spent the month of October 1996 writing 400 pages of text, and 50 pages in one day was my record that month. My mother came to visit us, with my youngest brother’s living with us, for the first time that I had seen her in nearly a decade, and I would not see her again for more than another decade – our relationship was never the same after Ventura. I took those 400 pages, along with about 200 pages of other writings (partly Ralph’s quotation collage (http://ahealedplanet.net/mdaq.htm)), and published it on the Internet in early November. That was long before companies such as Google, and I had to register my site with places such as Yahoo!. The day after I registered my site, I found Mr. Skeptic’s (http://ahealedplanet.net/dennis.htm#friends), and we engaged in cordial dialogue for several months as he confirmed all of my worst suspicions about organized skepticism, and he eventually took his psychopathic mask off while demonstrating his criminal dishonesty (http://ahealedplanet.net/dennis.htm#article). I could be wrong, but today I think that he was being paid (http://ahealedplanet.net/other.htm#skeptic) to engage in his vendetta against Dennis, to then quietly fold his tents after Dennis was run out of the USA. It is more psychologically interesting if Mr. Skeptic engaged in his crimes as a free-lancing Establishment defender, although he was likely being paid for his “skepticism.”
Immediately after publishing my first site, I drove to New Jersey and began working for Dennis. The first two weeks were spent in the hotel room that Dennis had rented for Yull Brown (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/89-Free-energy-psychic-abilities-and-the-skeptics-and-debunkers?p=413&viewfull=1#post413), who never used it. After two weeks, it was back to Ohio to close down our home. My wife moved to California, I moved to New Jersey with our two cats and my library, and we put most of the household into storage in Ohio. Our lives were literally scattered across the continent. My wife is ultimately happy that I signed up with Dennis again (and later Brian (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#nem)), as I “got it out” of my system.
In early December, my bookkeeper handed me a letter from our phone company. Back when Dennis was on his first barnstorming tour in early 1996, the Justice Department (which previously called Dennis “squeaky clean (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#squeaky)”) subpoenaed Dennis’s company’s phone records. The law provided for the Justice Department’s issuing a 90-day gag order on the phone company from notifying us. The first gag order expired about when Dennis began his summer tour, and the Justice Department renewed it for another 90 days. When that expired, our phone company was finally free to tell us. In the neo-Orwellian (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#orwell) days of Homeland Security, it became a crime if our phone company ever notified us. In the wake of the Snowden relations, Internet and phone companies are finally showing a little spine (https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/technology/apple-facebook-others-defy-authorities-increasingly-notify-users-of-secret-data-demands-after-snowden-revelations/2014/05/01/b41539c6-cfd1-11e3-b812-0c92213941f4_story.html?utm_term=.46d8a6de6b2b). Will it get worse under Trump? We’ll see. If we ever get a fascist demagogue (Bush played one after 9/11 (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#wtc)), and it remains to be seen with Trump, the path will have been long laid by American governmental actions against its citizenry.
When I saw that letter, it brought back images of the sharks circling in Ventura (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#mr), never quite knowing when they would strike. The attacks in Seattle (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#seattle1) had similar early warning signs. I was really in no shape to walk back into Hurricane Dennis, and drank heavily that winter, usually getting a six-pack of beer on the way home and drinking it with my cats, writing half-drunken emails to people, and the like. That winter is like a bad dream to me today, not the least of which was living away from my wife and only seeing her once a month over a long weekend. I hate long airplane flights, and today I hate flying in general, with the near-body-cavity searches that accompany getting on a plane. I have successfully avoided flying for the past four years.
So, I was in no shape to rejoin Dennis (I doubt that I ever will be), and things began going downhill for me immediately, and the Justice Department’s actions comprised an early sign for me, but it was far from the only, and coming soon are the lessons that I learned from my last stint with Dennis, and some were not learned until more than a decade later, when I finally realized that we were being set up for a sting by Godzilla’s minions (http://ahealedplanet.net/other.htm#sting), as they took the game to new levels.

Hi:
When I think back to my second stint with Dennis, not being ready to walk into that hurricane again was a key issue, although there was not nearly the kind of pressure that I had in Boston (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=612&viewfull=1#post612) and Ventura (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page4?p=652&viewfull=1#post652). When I was out there briefly in early 1996, Dennis’s operation was primarily staffed by volunteers, and they all lived in a huge, five-story house, which had more than 10 bedrooms, huge rooms that became offices, and the like. It was quite a place. Having volunteers was a step in the right direction, but also, Dennis eventually realized that he often got what he paid for with the volunteers.
The volunteers came from Patriot (http://ahealedplanet.net/dennis.htm#libel), Christian (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis?p=579&viewfull=1#post579), and even New Age (http://ahealedplanet.net/purpose.htm#newage) circles. Some good people came via those routes, but also people who eventually betrayed the operation. When I started with Dennis again in November 1996, the staff was almost all employees, with the volunteers working at the R&D facility and elsewhere. Alison and Dennis learned their lesson of employees having office keys (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#steal), and when I was there, I was the only person besides Dennis or Alison who used the office key to unlock the front door, and I only did it a couple of times.
When I joined the operation, Dennis was helping support a group of Christian businessmen who allegedly had a trillion dollar trust. After they gave a billion dollars of food and supplies to the Soviet military, as the Soviet Union was crumbling back in 1990, the American banking system froze all of their cash. Soon after that, we were contacted by representatives of American Indian nations, who used their sovereign nation status to play the bank debenture game, under the tutelage of the self-described sixth most powerful man on Earth, whom Dennis visited in his penthouse suite in Manhattan when I was there. Dennis had me renew my passport, so that I could go to London and close a deal.
I came to realize that it was all an elaborate set-up, to ensnare us in a sting operation, to put us in prison and end the threat that we posed once and for all. Godzilla took his game to elaborate new levels with us. No more mere inveigling of provocateurs into our operation (1 (http://ahealedplanet.net/hitman.htm), 2 (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/81-Vignettes-from-my-journey-and-how-I-learned-what-I-did-and-came-to-my-approach?p=206&viewfull=1#post206)) and getting us for not filing a form (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#bargain). Elaborate operations were set up, like in the movie The Sting (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Sting), and when I heard Tom Bearden (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#bearden) talk about how they almost got him, at about the same time that they tried to sting us (http://ahealedplanet.net/other.htm#sting), I had no idea that we had been targeted the same way. I did not realize it until a decade later, as I did a little research in the wake of the 2008 financial collapse (http://ahealedplanet.net/savings.htm#subprime).
I now know that if I had gone to London, I might have never returned. I was already done with the businessman’s route to free energy, and had been since 1997, but I was doubly done when I realized how close I came to going to prison.
In 1987, Dennis’s mantra was that the people really cared (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page3?p=618&viewfull=1#post618), but had nothing worth caring about. A decade later, in New Jersey, Dennis admitted that almost nobody really cared, but he was still sifting through humanity’s mine tailings (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#tailings), looking for nuggets. Although he had some volunteers, the momentum was still built through business opportunities, and he was promoting inventors once again, as he did in Seattle (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/81-Vignettes-from-my-journey-and-how-I-learned-what-I-did-and-came-to-my-approach?p=209&viewfull=1#post209) and Ventura. I saw the same kind of parade as I had witnessed before, of inventors coming through, hawking their wares, in it for the money, fame, and the like. Dennis threw almost all of his eggs into Yull Brown’s basket (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/89-Free-energy-psychic-abilities-and-the-skeptics-and-debunkers?p=417&viewfull=1#post417), and like a typical inventor, Yull was in it for the money and fame, and he betrayed Dennis big time while I was there. I had a sobering experience of speaking at Department of Energy hearings, where the hearings’ organizer admitted that the entire set-up was a scam (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#yull), only window-dressing to fabricate the appearance of public involvement.
If there was a silver lining in Yull’s antics, it was that he kept blowing the deals apart that Dennis was trying to put together, with his crazy demands. If Dennis had put a deal together, it was likely going to be with those sting people, so Yull’s craziness worked out in the end. But Yull left Dennis high and dry. When that happened, Dennis looked for Victor Fischer (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/89-Free-energy-psychic-abilities-and-the-skeptics-and-debunkers?p=427&viewfull=1#post427) and found him. Mr. Professor never forgave Fischer for what he did in Ventura, and when Fischer left Dennis high and dry in New Jersey, after Dennis hitched his wagon to Fischer’s, I was not surprised in the least. When I saw Dennis and Alison in 2013 (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/81-Vignettes-from-my-journey-and-how-I-learned-what-I-did-and-came-to-my-approach/page3?p=249&viewfull=1#post249), I mentioned how Fischer’s behavior was no surprise, and Alison said that Fischer exploited Dennis’s weakness in believing in people who did not deserve it. Almost nobody on Earth (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#burn) deserves it.
There is more coming on my days in New Jersey and what I learned.
Best,
Wade

Wade,
Any books to read about sociopaths and psychopaths. Not looking forward to it. I feel that understanding them might be useful. I am re-reading your essay and am at midpoint reflection.
Also it's interesting that your major influences are mostly European men. It is the same for me I would add amartya send and Jean dreze to the list
It is just the way it is, apart from the fact that they write in English European men have great energy at their disposal to be able to make important contributions. I made my peace with the state of affairs. They are as human as we all are, I am very close to not having out-groups
It is a lot of effort and implicit bias is hard to overcome.

Hi Freeknowledge (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1124857&viewfull=1#post1124857):
You raise big issues. On psychopaths, I don’t have a book that I could point you to, other than perhaps the DSM V (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DSM-5). :) The terminology keeps changing, and my psychologist wife will sometimes look askance at my use of terminology. You can see the terminology controversy on psychopaths at the beginning of the Wikipedia article (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychopathy). Here is a psychologist writing (http://psychcentral.com/blog/archives/2015/02/12/differences-between-a-psychopath-vs-sociopath/) about the confusion between psychopath and sociopath, but agrees with the general thinking that I have seen, in that psychopaths are born and sociopaths are conditioned. Scientists think that psychopathy may be the result of brain structure. Here is another attempt to define the distinction (https://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/wicked-deeds/201401/how-tell-sociopath-psychopath) (and he has a book on serial killers).
Those are also materialistic definitions, and because they are materialistic, I think that they will fall short of being a comprehensive definition. This is a key area where if the soul was acknowledged, there would be greater understanding of the condition, but that is not going to happen until the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5). :) There are no psychopaths or sociopaths in this world (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?32399-A-Future-Earth&p=672748&viewfull=1#post672748), but this world is full of them (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?32399-A-Future-Earth&p=672115&viewfull=1#post672115). Let’s take emotional sadist Max (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#hell), who ended up in his “heaven” when he passed over, but you sure would not call it heaven. Max is on what I call the dark path (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#serving), or what Ra (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#ra) would call the path of negative polarization. But the dark path is not forever, and is something that most souls explore for a time, usually when they are younger souls, before they “get it” and leave behind that extreme egocentrism. Can I “prove” any of that? No. However, there is a great deal of evidence, of reports of the other side (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#afterlife), which impressively support that idea. Of course, if you can die and come back (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#nde), no need to read the reports. :)
That is also kind of how it was with me and psychopaths. I got to see Godzilla’s minions sicced on us (1 (http://ahealedplanet.net/hitman.htm), 2 (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/81-Vignettes-from-my-journey-and-how-I-learned-what-I-did-and-came-to-my-approach?p=206&viewfull=1#post206)), and it was educational. Bill and Ken were on Godzilla’s direct payroll, while Mr. Deputy (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#deputy) was a psychopath in the employ of Ventura County, which is run by gangsters, who were only too happy to take us out for the right price. A mere $10 million in greased palms can do the work of $1 billion in quiet money (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#offer), but Godzilla prefers the quiet money route, as it is more effective. Mr. Skeptic (http://ahealedplanet.net/dennis.htm#friends) is a functional psychopath, but if he told his endless lies as “merely” part of his job, or was freelancing, is kind of irrelevant. I have psychopathic and sociopathic relatives, one of whom is in prison today for murdering his infant son.
So, I got a bellyful of psychopaths and sociopaths in the real world, and have not needed to read academic studies of them very much. But right now, for instance, I am reading a book on Karl Wolff (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karl_Wolff) and his life. I read one on Allen Dulles (http://educationforum.ipbhost.com/index.php?/topic/20494-bill-decker-and-john-tower/&do=findComment&comment=321167) recently. You want to call them psychopaths? It would not be far from the mark.
My accounts of my encounters with Godzilla’s minions is one of the more important services that I have provided, IMO, to help sober up gung-ho newbies who try to enlist their social circles (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialcircle) in the free energy quest. Social circles are born of survival and ego, and social circle motivations are effortlessly exploited by Godzilla’s psychopaths. That is why I keep saying that the social circle approach is not going to work, and neither will appeals to egocentric ideologies (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#dominant). But people usually need to get some experience before they begin to understand, and that is why I continually write that the only people useful for my effort already had some kind of awakening experience (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=309&viewfull=1#post309). That awakening helped them shake their in-group conceits (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ingroup).
I have to rush off to another long day in the office, but briefly, yes, white men have been the most influential intellectuals of the Fourth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal4), primarily because of their political-economic status (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal35) (but some of it seems to have been genetically baked in (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#jewish)). In the Fifth Epoch, race will cease to exist (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#nations), along with many other aspects of today’s humanity. I have long stated that the free energy quest cannot be a boys’ club, but so far, it largely has been. Men play heroes (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#messiah1), and women play cheerleaders and groupies. I don’t see a successful effort coming from people who are hardwired into those roles. The men have to put away their swords and armor (http://ahealedplanet.net/camelot.htm#warriors), and the women need to become scientifically literate, etc.
Best,
Wade

Hi:
That winter of 1996-1997 was like a bad dream for me, in more than one way. Being separated from my wife was part of it. But the biggest part was taking in Dennis’s effort, what we were attempting, and seeing whom we were doing it with. Dennis was not playing the free energy game then, but put all of his eggs in Yull’s basket (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/89-Free-energy-psychic-abilities-and-the-skeptics-and-debunkers?p=417&viewfull=1#post417), chasing after the federal government, to use Brown’s Gas to neutralize nuclear waste (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#yull). Dennis was playing to the federal government, “Patriots (http://ahealedplanet.net/dennis.htm#libel),” and Christians, while selling business opportunities. Dennis was no longer dealing with the heat pump (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#new), but had a grab bag of products: Brown’s Gas machines, an electric motor modification that he was developing, his autobiographical books, and a smattering of other “general store” kinds of products, some of which were innovative, such as a silent and vibration-free jackhammer. Dennis was just throwing as much at the wall as he could, to see what stuck. In the end, none of it did.
Dennis has sold some amazing products, but the high point of his career was in Seattle (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=594&viewfull=1#post594), when he threatened to carpet Puget Sound with his heat pump. He was selling disruptive energy technology in a novel way by putting it on people’s homes for free (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#sfs). Nothing like that has been seen before or since on Earth. Dennis got to experience organized suppression in a big way in Seattle (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#scam), for the first of several instances like it. Organized suppression (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#levels1) is definitely a big hurdle to overcome, especially when the subject becomes free energy. For a gathering of saints (http://ahealedplanet.net/lessons.htm#howmany) it would be hard enough, but Dennis was working with humanity’s “mine tailings (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#tailings),” and Godzilla (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc) took his game to a new level in New Jersey, with a sophisticated sting operation (http://ahealedplanet.net/other.htm#sting). We did not have a prayer, and the inventors betrayed Dennis right and left, Yull and Fischer (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/89-Free-energy-psychic-abilities-and-the-skeptics-and-debunkers?p=427&viewfull=1#post427) most prominently, and my strong suspicion in Ventura turned into certainty in New Jersey: the businessman/inventor’s path (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#approaches) to free energy did not have a prayer.
Most free energy efforts never even leave the inventor’s garage. He (almost always a he) either never taps the ZPF (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#zpf1) in a meaningful way, runs out of money, burns the house down or cripples himself in an accident, or gets screwed by his “allies,” as the Treasure of the Sierra Madre effect takes over and it turns into a bloodbath of greed (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#greed). If he ever gets something going, then it starts getting rough. Mark (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=811647&viewfull=1#post811647) was not seeking fanfare with his gizmo, but naively did it in the belly of the beast and had hell to pay. Adam (http://ahealedplanet.net/radio.htm#trombly), on the other hand, demonstrated gizmos publicly and spoke publicly, such as in Manhattan and at the United Nations, and he has survived dozens of murder attempts since then. His story and Dennis’s are the two most preposterous that I have heard of, in any field. Brian’s being asked/ordered to go to Mars (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianbio.htm#mars) is only an amusing footnote to our adventures. Sparky (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ideal) tried to go the inventor/businessman’s route and was driven into hiding from Godzilla’s death threats at his life’s end. I had my own nightmare in the milieu. Joe Newman’s thinking that he was The Second Coming (http://ahealedplanet.net/conun.htm#grandeur), or Keshe’s announcing that he is the Messiah (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#messiah), are just days in the office in that milieu, in which almost nobody has the right stuff, with their posturing, greed, and other deadly sins (http://ahealedplanet.net/intro.htm#vices) on full display. In Seattle, Boston, Ventura, and New Jersey, I witnessed or heard about several dozen attempts to steal our companies (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#shocked), and people would try to steal or pirate our technologies, and the like. It eventually became like that saying, “I used to be disgusted, but now I am just amused.”
The vast majority of free energy inventors you never hear about, as Godzilla’s surveillance activities are second to none. He nips those problems in the bud, and has used the big checkbook strategy (http://ahealedplanet.net/hooked.htm#payoff) thousands of times. He tried it on us twice (1 (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#ten), 2 (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#offer)), and when we did not take the money, then he stopped playing nice. He has refined his game to a science (http://ahealedplanet.net/risk.htm#graphic). By those days, I also knew that whatever the tinkerers were working on in their garages had been developed to commercial levels (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#underground) before I was born.
As with Greer (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page6?p=729&viewfull=1#post729), billionaire “philanthropists (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#philanthropy1)” would swarm Dennis when he was flying high, but they were all a bunch of vulture/parasites (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#oleary) and none of them parted with a dollar. The “fat cat (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#rich)” path has never worked (and neither has beseeching any other group (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#beseeching1) or institution), and Dennis doggedly tried the mass movement approach (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level10) over and over, and his latest attempt got him run out of the country (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=694872&viewfull=1#post694872), even when the sitting American president’s energy advisor was one of Dennis’s fans. I refused to be part of that operation, and thank my lucky stars every day that I turned Dennis down (http://ahealedplanet.net/paths.htm#crisis). We learned our “environmentalist (http://ahealedplanet.net/purpose.htm#environmentalists)” lesson back in Boston (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page4?p=647&viewfull=1#post647).
As I took in what we were doing, I really soured on our effort, and Dennis let me move home to Seattle in the spring of 1997, eleven years after I met him in Seattle (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=601&viewfull=1#post601), and I never left and don’t plan to. Dennis’s effort collapsed a few months later, and he limped along with Fischer for a few more years, until Fischer betrayed him and left the scene once again. I had learned my life’s primary lesson (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#burn) in Ventura, and I never saw anything afterward that trumped that lesson. It is just who humanity is, behaviorally modern humans (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#leap) living in a world of scarcity and fear (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#coming), and it does no good to judge the situation (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#judge1). The entire free energy field has been stuck in arrested development (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#arrested) since before I was born.
That goal of writing a book was delayed by the New Jersey experience, but once back in Seattle, I began the study and writing that became my site today. It is a far cry from those 600 hurried pages that I published back in 1996 (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page9?p=805&viewfull=1#post805). Over the next six years, I spent about four of them working full-time on my studies and writing. I published one version in 1999, and a pal whom I met in a Velikovsky (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#velikovsky) forum offered to become my editor, to turn my literary “wine into brandy.” I got the lesson of my writing career from her editor’s red pen. My writing improved so much that one professional writer pal doubted that I wrote it. It is all mine, as I think that my daily writings (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=694872&viewfull=1) have demonstrated. She also helped edit my big essay, but provided little more than some grammar tips. I am always learning something new as a writer.
As I look back at my studies and writing efforts, I think that I can divide the effort in two phases. From 1989 to 2002, when I published my site largely as it stands today, it was about what isn’t, as I deconstructed the lies that I had been raised with (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm). After 2002, it was about what is, as I discovered Fuller’s (http://ahealedplanet.net/roots.htm#fuller) work, resumed my science studies in earnest, and wrote far more comprehensively (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#developing). Almost all of the essays after this part of my home page (http://ahealedplanet.net/home.htm#personal) were written before 2003, and almost everything before it (http://ahealedplanet.net/home.htm#forum) was written after encountering Uncle Bucky.
Also, when I began resuming my science studies in earnest, I signed up for the last free energy effort that I ever will join, when Brian asked me to help him found NEM (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#nem). My wife was once again happy that I did it, as I got it out of my system. After the NEM fiasco, I rejected all attempts to enlist me into different efforts, including Dennis’s and Brian’s later entreaties. I was an able spear carrier (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#adventures) for them, but I realized that the group that I thought might have a chance (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir) did not yet exist. My efforts since 2007, after my midlife crisis ended (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#midlife) and I got booted out of forums (http://ahealedplanet.net/critics.htm#troll1), have been specifically intended toward building that group. But I first had to write the textbook (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm).
The coming posts are going to be about those scholarly years, from 1997 until the NEM fiasco that ended for me in 2004, and what I learned in those days.
Best,

Hi:
From 1997 to 2002 were my years of learning to be scholarly in my studies and writing. It was a completely amateur effort, with no training. My first two essays of my site as it stands today were the Columbus (http://ahealedplanet.net/columbus.htm) and fluoride (http://ahealedplanet.net/fluoride.htm) essays, after losing my very first essay draft (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/85-Computers-and-me?p=298&viewfull=1#post298) on Julian’s Simon’s stable of soul-souled scientists and scholars due to multiple computer failures and my own ignorance and foolishness. Learning the hard way is expensive! None of those essays changed greatly from what I originally wrote, at least fact-wise, but I had a long way to go with my writing style. I had helpful critical comments from pals, one of whom was a professional who later doubted that I wrote my later work, as it had improved so much, especially after I hired an editor (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page9?p=808&viewfull=1#post808). I have also been a professional technical writer since 2003, when I resumed my career after publishing my site. Writing every day helps.
Those essays were the first on that theme (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page9?p=808&viewfull=1#post808) of what isn’t. Columbus certainly was not some hero to be worshipped, with a national holiday in his name (and he was even up for sainthood (http://ahealedplanet.net/columbus.htm#saint) at one time). Fluoride is not some dental panacea, and Simon’s collection of scientists/scholars demonstrated how corrupting conflicts of interest are. The Lies That I Was Raised With (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm) essay came soon after them, as I recall. That essay has also changed very little since I originally wrote it. I asked Uncle Ed (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#manufacturing) for permission for those images from Lies of Our Times (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#loot), and Ed was happy that I did it. Whenever I asked people such as Ed, Howard Zinn (http://ahealedplanet.net/zinn.htm), or Peter Ward (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page6?p=738&viewfull=1#post738) for permission to publish part of their work, they certainly lived up to my impression of them as great human beings. There are not many like them on Earth today.
More often, my studies discovered that the people held up to me as heroes and saints were largely mass-murdering thieves and genocidists. George Washington’s plan to steal North America from the Indians (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#blueprint) somehow eluded his biographers. The pious padre (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#serra) whom my grade school was named after was sainted (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#saint) last year. He was the Hitler of California, building a string of concentration camps called missions, which completely exterminated the coastal Indians who lived where the missions were built, but all that I was taught was some heavenly tale of his selfless work of “civilizing” the natives. The process exterminated them. Hitler actually formulated his plans (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#hitler) for Eastern Europe from the Anglo-American experience in North America: invade and steal the land while annihilating its inhabitants. Hitler’s crime was doing it to white people. Hitler became history’s greatest monster (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm#toward), while those that he emulated are heroes and saints, with national holidays in their names. The hypocrisy of the USA’s social managers is mind-boggling (Uncle Ed used “chutzpa” to describe their work), but it is the standard in-group (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ingroup)/out-group (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ingroup1) treatment that is literally older than humanity (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialreason). Those kinds of behaviors are what helped lead to Brian’s question of whether humanity is really a sentient species (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#sentience1). When I first heard him say it in 2001, I sadly understood.
My first hint that the glory stories of World War II (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm#good) might be a little awry was reading an article in Atlantic Magazine (which my wife’s godmother subscribed her to), written by Paul Fussell (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm#fussell), back in 1990 (this article (http://www.theatlantic.com/past/docs/unbound/bookauth/battle/fussell.htm) is an earlier one). I soon obtained Wartime (https://www.amazon.com/Wartime-Understanding-Behavior-Second-World/dp/0195065778/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1483798034&sr=8-1&keywords=Wartime) and Eugene Sledge’s memoir (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm#sledge). They were sobering works, but I was ready for them. I spent the summer of 1999 performing the study and writing for my war essay (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm), the year after Saving Private Ryan (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm#ryan) came out, and Uncle Howard helped me understand. The year after I published that essay, Michael Zezima published his rebuttal (https://www.amazon.com/Saving-Private-Power-Hidden-History/dp/188712845X/ref=la_B001JORVTO_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1483798348&sr=1-1) to Saving Private Ryan. I contacted him, and he was amazed at how similar our work was.
The study for my war essay was the single most draining experience of my scholarly career. I had been trying to stop drinking since 1991, without much success. A month here, three months there, but then it was back to the bottle. My pattern that summer of studying World War II and the Jewish Holocaust was to study and write for eight hours or so, and then drink between six and nine beers. My behavior during those days damaged my marriage, and I could not blame my wife for it. A year later, I finally kicked the bottle, once and for all. I triumphed just as my monster of a midlife crisis (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#midlife) began. If I had been drinking during my midlife crisis, I might not be alive today.
I would study wars and genocides very carefully, especially ones that your culture had a hand in. I hardly know an American who is strong enough to honestly do it. Few Americans know or care how many millions of people that our imperial war machine has murdered in the past generation (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#invading), mostly children, as we call ourselves a great humanitarian nation (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#record). When people such as Uncles Noam and Ed laid bare our imperial propaganda, their works were destroyed (http://ahealedplanet.net/critics.htm#crv) or their careers were ruined (http://ahealedplanet.net/columbus.htm#churchill). That is how imperial conceits are maintained, and the public is only too happy to oblige, as long as buying into the lies keep their bellies full.
I learned that personal integrity is the world’s scarcest commodity (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#burn) back in 1988, but I still had a lot to learn. When I began seeing the depth of the lies that I had been fed, I began mentioning it to those around me, but cautiously. I had witnessed a generation earlier how Americans reacted to the idea that their diets were atrocious (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#lessons), so when I began telling some people about the media analysis I was studying (manufacturing), such as Unreliable Sources (https://www.amazon.com/Unreliable-Sources-Guide-Detecting-Media/dp/0818405619/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1483800973&sr=1-1&keywords=Unreliable+Sources), nobody wanted to hear about it, and if I had pressed it, people were going to get hostile, as their cognitive dissonance (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#cognitive) would spur them to wipe out the source of their dissonance. The Great Herd does not like its self-serving illusions challenged, even when they face certain death (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#doom) if they don’t question their conditioning. It was hard to believe at first, but I now accept it as normal, which is another reason why the mass movement approach to free energy (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level10) does not have a prayer. Before encountering Uncle Bucky (http://ahealedplanet.net/roots.htm#fuller), I could not have articulated very well what the point of my work was, or how it related to free energy, but it is clear to me today, and became ever-clearer as I began the studies in 2003 that led to writing my big essay (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm) a decade later.
The only people who will be useful for my effort (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir) have to relinquish all in-group ideologies, including the ones that see the elites as bad guys (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#weakness). Godzilla (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc) stepped on me, and hard (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#mr), but I wish him no ill will. I seek to put him out to pasture (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#elitedisappear), however. :)
There is much more to come about my scholar’s journey from 1997 to 2002.
Best,
Wade

Hi:
After Judi Bari (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Judi_Bari) survived a murder attempt and was crippled (and the FBI prosecuted her for surviving a murder attempt (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Judi_Bari#Car_bombing_attempt_on_Bari.27s_life), surreally), she wrote instead of organized and protested, and said, “Those who can’t do, write.” :) I see my work kind of like that, but it has its place. My biggest learning experiences were in the real world, with my mystical awakening (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#silva), days in LA (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=406928&viewfull=1#post406928), stints with Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=601&viewfull=1#post601) and Brian (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#nem), seeing the medical racket with my own eyes (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#experience), etc. But I have had enough Indiana Jones-ing (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#jones) for one lifetime, and seek the quiet life anymore.
Most of my essays written for the 2002 version of my site have a story behind them, and I’ll tell them in coming posts. I’ll start with my public and other Internet interaction. Free energy is big stuff, to put it mildly. Not only will it be the biggest event in the human journey (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5), it will end the world as we know it, as the previous Epochal Events did (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#imagine). If people do not react in denial (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level1) or fear (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level5), they go crazy with greed (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#greed), megalomania (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#messiah), and the like. I have seen it all in the past 30 years (it was 30 years ago this month when I became Dennis’s partner (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page3?p=614&viewfull=1#post614); oh, where does a life go?), as I have fielded thousands of reactions to the idea of free energy. In 2007, I finally decided to organize those reactions in this table (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#chart), and I have not seen anything in the past decade that did not nicely fit into one of those categories.
My thread at Avalon (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=406928&viewfull=1) is a mere sampler, and Bill and friends keep the trolls (http://ahealedplanet.net/critics.htm#troll) at bay. More typical of my public interaction was the troll swarm (http://universalspectrum.org/forum/showthread.php?3653-Wade-Frazier-Energy-and-the-Human-Journey&) at another forum that eventually saw me essentially booted out (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/94-My-last-posts-in-another-forum), or my experience at this forum (http://ahealedplanet.net/critics.htm#troll1), when I decided to interact with the public again. I had a presence at a New Age (http://ahealedplanet.net/purpose.htm#newage) forum, which had a section devoted to my work, like at here (http://universalspectrum.org/forum/forumdisplay.php?48-Healed-Planet), which the forum’s owner completely erased soon after Mr. Skeptic arrived. Mr. Skeptic stalked me on the Internet for a decade, as you can see here (http://portland.indymedia.org/en/2007/02/353778.shtml#251272). Anywhere that I appeared on the Internet would soon receive a visit from Mr. Skeptic (http://ahealedplanet.net/dennis.htm#friends), sometimes on the same day, as he heaved a disinformation bomb at me, or he privately hurled it to those who promoted my work, which often soured our relationship. He had to be very busy, stalking me like that, which provided more evidence that he was a professional (http://ahealedplanet.net/other.htm#skeptic), not some free-lancing disinformation specialist. It was disheartening how easily he gulled big names (http://ahealedplanet.net/skeptic.htm) in the free energy field with his affable skeptic charade. Naïveté is no crime (http://ahealedplanet.net/conun.htm#naive), and everybody that I most respected in the free energy milieu began their journeys that way, but people in thrall to naïveté won’t last long on the free energy path. Either they will grow out of their naïveté or get devoured by the milieu.
When Brian toured the world, speaking at conferences and the like, talking up free energy, he had his own professional stalker who would arrive and harry Brian. It was like what Dennis experienced with Bill the BPA Hit Man (http://ahealedplanet.net/hitman.htm#global). Brian had his life shortened, courtesy of the American military (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#attack), when he hosted a UFO conference back in his days of getting his feet wet in the milieu. Putting on free energy conferences (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#conferences) is suicidal today.
From 1996 to 2002, in the days of innocence on the Internet, I had my email address on every page of my site. I took on all comers during those years. I met quite a few of my cyberpals that way, but also I had to field attacks from the public. In those days, people were usually not anonymous cowards like they are today, and a non-negotiable policy for my effort is no anonymity. Anonymous cowards are not going to get anything done of importance. Being real people is less than 1% of what it will take for the choir (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir) to make a dent. But after 9/11 (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#wtc), the USA lost its collective sanity. The attacks that I received became increasingly vicious and irrational, and were almost always made by anonymous cowards. In early 2002, I finally decided that it was not worth it anymore to interact directly with the public, and I only interact in semi-public forums such as Avalon, or my own (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/forum.php), which I control.
Dealing with trolls and assailants from the public is bad enough, or attacks from officialdom, but the worst came from my social circles. For even the least intelligent among us, it does not take long to glimpse free energy’s magnitude, and when those around me saw what I was chasing after, their reactions could be extreme. Some tried to help, but usually from their egos. Many attacked me or ceased contact with me, and those closest to me knew how to hit me where it hurt. That was the worst part of my journey, by far. The attacks from a former girlfriend (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page3?p=622&viewfull=1#post622) were only a gentle preview of what was coming, and by the time I heard that my mother had made a scrapbook of her employer’s libelous articles on us, and took it on tour (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=400492&viewfull=1#post400492) to my investors, friends, and family, telling them the story of her son the criminal, it did not even hurt anymore. When I say that proselytizing to one’s social circles (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialcircle) about free energy is dangerous, I did not just come up with it one day, off the top of my head. I learned that one the hard way, and will get into some of the details of the attacks, for the first time publicly, to drive the point home. What I experienced was not unusual, I am sorry to report. When I traded notes with fellow travelers and related how my social circles reacted, the response was usually along the lines of: “Welcome to the club.”

Hi:
I have a long day and week ahead of me, and this will be a brief “current events” post. It has been “interesting” to see the American “liberal” establishment become neo-McCarthyites (http://www.nakedcapitalism.com/2016/12/site-behind-washington-posts-mccarthyite-blacklist-appears-to-be-linked-to-ukrainian-fascism-and-cia-spying.html), as they libel “fake news” sites, and laws are passed to “regulate” such, in what looks like a war on non-official views (http://www.strategic-culture.org/news/2017/01/03/war-against-alternative-information.html). The First Amendment has always had a rough ride (http://ahealedplanet.net/mcgehee.htm#secrecy), but it is in tatters today. Orwell’s vision (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#orwell) came true long ago and then some, and it is a measure of its accuracy that it gets denied with specious and fact-free arguments. The same actors who lied ad nauseum about Iraq’s WMD are stirring up anti-Russian hysteria (http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-01-01/same-idiots-who-pushed-iraq-war-are-now-stirring-hysteria-about-russia), and the media never misses a beat, quickly switching to the new demon of the hour, who today is Putin. For instance, John McCain’s hypocrisy is astounding (https://mishtalk.com/2017/01/07/mccain-has-blood-on-his-hands/).
What I have found amusing and even hopeful is Julian Assange’s “rehabilitation” after he gored the “right ox,” of the Clinton campaign. He has even been interviewed on Fox News (http://www.zerohedge.com/node/583818/8733034), of all places, Sarah Palin publicly apologized (http://thehill.com/policy/cybersecurity/312625-palin-apologizes-to-assange), and even Donald Trump has sung his praises (http://www.nytimes.com/2017/01/04/us/politics/julian-assange-donald-trump.html?_r=0). Let there be no doubt that this “rehabilitation” is due to Wikileaks’s goring the Clinton ox. He may go back on the “terrorist” list soon, if he gores the wrong oxen, and a former CIA official recently called Assange a “pedophile,” (http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-01-07/we-regret-error-cnn-apologizes-assange-pedophilia-accusation-issues-retraction) in keeping with the FBI’s attempt to frame him for that crime (http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2016-12-10/iceland-interior-minister-reveals-plot-obama-administration-frame-julian-assange). Does anybody not suspect that those Swedish groupies (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Julian_Assange#Swedish_sexual_assault_allegations) were part of a honeypot operation (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clandestine_HUMINT_asset_recruiting#Love.2C_honeypots.2C_and_recruitment)? The FBI’s frame attempt happened the next year. Maybe those Swedish groupies were only “accidents” that TPTB leapt on, when Assange played right into their hands by thinking that his position entitled him to rock star perks. The attacks on Snowden (https://mishtalk.com/2017/01/02/superhero-snowden-trashed-in-absurd-wsj-op-ed/) are unabated. Interesting times.
On another note, the American medical racket’s effect is depicted here (http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-01-01/us-healthcare-global-outlier-and-not-good-way), graphically. The Western medical model (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#early) will not survive into the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5), but the USA is the worst of the bunch, by far, being the heart of capitalism (http://ahealedplanet.net/other.htm#capitalism).

Hi:
This week will likely be short ones, as I work long hours at my day job.
I have written some in the past on my relationship with Ralph McGehee (http://ahealedplanet.net/mcgehee.htm). Ralph was like Smedley Butler (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm#brown), Rodney Stich (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#stich), Gary Wean (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#wean), or Mr. Mentor (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm#justify3), in that he found out about the evils of the American system by working in it. My discovery of the worthlessness of my profession (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#getting) was mild compared to what they came to understand. Mr. Mentor did not speak out publicly, but those others did, and they generally paid dearly for it. Ralph sent me a statement to publish (http://ahealedplanet.net/mcgehee.htm#statement) when the FBI’s harassment became so great that Ralph dared not leave his house. Stich had his life wrecked (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#divorce) by the gangster judges in California, who tried to murder Gary (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#hit). Those over-grown Boy Scouts (http://ahealedplanet.net/paths.htm#scouts) could not keep silent in the face of evil, and would all be called whistleblowers (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#whistleblower) today. Crucifying whistleblowers is an American pastime, with the festivities led by American presidents anymore.
While Langley is filled with zombies (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#stockwell) who count their days to retirement in quiet desperation, drinking themselves into a stupor each night, but Ralph could not do that. He did shuffle along with the zombies in his last years at the CIA, but it was only for show, as he performed the studies at Langley that allowed him to write his book.
For me, this bogus Soviet “hacking (http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-01-08/russian-hacking-only-narrative-matters-truth)” meme, with the “intelligence” agencies briefing the sitting president is ironic. Ralph never once saw the CIA tell the truth to Congress. Instead came a steady stream of lies. Ralph worked for William Colby (http://ahealedplanet.net/mcgehee.htm#colby), and when he saw Colby testifying at the Church Committee hearings (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Colby#CIA_HQ:_Director), he knew that Colby was lying, but Colby was fired by the sitting president because he seemed too candid publicly. Colby was probably taken out by this own (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Colby#Death), and if Greer’s reporting is relevant (http://www.disclosureproject.org/transcripts/JeanNoelBassior-Nov2005.htm) (and here (https://archive.org/details/WhyWasFormerCiaDirectorWilliamColbyAssassinated)), it was because Colby might have been about to leak something far more impactful than the truth. Orwell’s nightmare writings only hint at the truth of how it really works.

Hi:
Not much time this morning, and this will be another current events post. As Obama leaves office, there seems to be a very concerted effort to sour things with Russia before Trump takes office. There is a deliberately provocative troop deployment (http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-01-09/thousands-us-troops-begin-arriving-europe-one-largest-deployments-cold-war) taking place right now.
Washington Post led the way with its McCarthyite reporting (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page7?p=811&viewfull=1#post811), and in a stunning turnaround, now wants to retire the very term (https://www.washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/style/its-time-to-retire-the-tainted-term-fake-news/2017/01/06/a5a7516c-d375-11e6-945a-76f69a399dd5_story.html?utm_term=.15754c1f69a9) that it was so instrumental in establishing (http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-01-10/washington-post-instrumental-coining-term-fake-news-now-wants-it-gone): fake news. In Orwellian fashion, Washington Post did not even acknowledge its role in the phenomenon, acting like it was above the fray. Washington Post has published outright disinformation articles about Russia (http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-01-09/glenn-greenwald-blasts-fake-news-peddling-washington-post-lack-basic-journalistic-sk) lately. The State Department recently defended the fact that there has been no evidence published (http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-01-09/glenn-greenwald-blasts-fake-news-peddling-washington-post-lack-basic-journalistic-sk) on the Russian “hacking” allegations, and now China gets into the act (http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-01-08/china-slams-us-hacking-accusation-groundless-smear-campaign-demands-washington-expla) regarding American accusations that are evidence-free.
Back in my home town, I got both barrels of how the media can make it up as it goes (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page5?p=687&viewfull=1#post687). When I moved away, just as the war drums were beating for Iraq (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#attacking), I also began my media studies. The lies that the American media tells about foreign events can be far more spectacular, and often are pure fantasy when they are not deliberately lying (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#loot). So, what is happening today is not unusual. Any American whose head is not in the sand should know that the CIA is a cloak-and-dagger operation that deliberately lies to the American people (http://ahealedplanet.net/mcgehee.htm#intelligence), and it is hilarious that Obama is complaining (http://www.shtfplan.com/headline-news/putins-not-on-our-team-obama-worried-americans-trust-putin-more-than-u-s-gov_01092017) that the American people trust Putin more than the CIA. The crazy part is that the Russian media is more reliable in its reporting than the American media. Russia Today has many people on its show that will never be on the American media, such as Uncle Noam (https://www.rt.com/shows/documentary/346060-chomsky-wealth-power-concentration/). You can see Noam on Democracy Now! (https://www.democracynow.org/2015/3/2/noam_chomsky_after_dangerous_proxy_war), but that is about as close to the MSM as it gets in the USA. Noam recently talked about a blatant instance of NPR censoring him (http://www.alternet.org/media/noam-chomsky-unravels-political-mechanics-behind-his-gradual-expulsion-mainstream-media).
These lessons learned posts (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page5?p=687&viewfull=1) help develop the background for how I view things such as the American media, and what is happening today is one of the more extreme recent manifestations of how the media manipulates the public. I was recently asked about Putin by somebody close to me, and my reply was that the fact that I was even being asked about him shows the power of the American propaganda system. I recall one observer saying long ago that the American media may not tell us what to think, but it does tell us what to think about.
Best,
Wade

Hi:
On current events, the Trump/Russia saga just got more bizarre (http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-01-11/archived-posts-prove-4chan-trolled-cia-trump-golden-shower-story-entire-russian-hack). Time will tell, but this smells like the British “dossier” on Iraq (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/September_Dossier) that was a mishmash of a plagiarized college paper and other fantasy. So goes the “intelligence (http://ahealedplanet.net/mcgehee.htm#intelligence)” field. Strange times.
Back to my lessons learned. I can’t recall if my medical racket essay was written before or after 2000, but I lean toward it first being drafted in 1998-1999. The genesis of it was when I was 12 (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#lessons) and my family went “health nut” and my father reversed the hardening of his arteries, which medical dogma declared “impossible” until quite recently. Sometimes I think about what my “friends (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#voice3)” have been up to in manipulating my life’s journey. I left Southern California twice, vowing to never return, and there I was, driving to LA while Dennis was in jail (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#jail), and getting a job at a company that the medical racket tried to wipe out (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page5?p=674&viewfull=1#post674) just after I got there. I don’t know of anybody else, nor have I heard of anybody else, who worked at companies that were attacked by both the energy and medical rackets. The lab had deep enough pockets to survive the attacks, but the lab’s owner soon sold out to a Fortune 500 company and retired. He had experienced enough of that.
So, when I began my studies in 1990 in Ohio (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page7?p=734&viewfull=1#post734), I was ready for what I found, first with books on Naessens (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#naessens) and Rife (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#rife), and I soon discovered Ralph Hovnanian’s Medical Dark Ages (http://ahealedplanet.net/mdaq.htm), to find out, among other revelations, that the booklet that saved my father’s life was banned in the USA (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#banned), The Land of the Free. About 100 pages into my medical racket essay, the lightbulb finally went on for my editor, as she saw how similar the energy and medical rackets were. It was an “aha” moment for her, when she made her personal paradigm shift.
My fluoride essay (http://ahealedplanet.net/fluoride.htm) was a prelude to my medical racket essay, and I wrote it around 1997-1998. I first heard about water treatment issues from Paul Bragg (http://ahealedplanet.net/bragg.htm). So, he gets credit for that, as well as introducing me to a fasting regimen (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#bragg). A decade later, my dentist wrote a fluoridation paper (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/80-Vaccination?p=784&viewfull=1#post784) that was very similar to my fluoride essay.
I still only know one person who tried an alternative cancer treatment (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#alternative). I never even volunteer alternative health information anymore (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#doom), unless the person has expressed an interest to me.
While knowing about all the death and suffering meted out by Western medicine (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#system) is not easy, it was one of the less harrowing areas for me to write about. Far harder to stomach were the many genocides inflicted by the West (http://ahealedplanet.net/columbus.htm#genocide) on the world’s indigenous peoples, which rebounded in World War II (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm#good) when Hitler took a page from his imperial rivals (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#hitler) and did it to white people. Those genocides continue to this day (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#invading), primarily inflicted or abetted (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page8?p=742&viewfull=1#post742) by my great nation, and I can hardly find an American who knows or cares, which is in keeping with my life’s primary lesson (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#burn). That egocentric ceding of authority to others is what makes humanity such an obedient herd of lemmings (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#lemmings), as humanity races toward it collective death (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#spaceshipearth) today, while Godzilla formulates his contingency plans for survival (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#mars).
I found that the same basic principles of awakening apply to any field. You first have to care (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=308&viewfull=1#post308), and if you chase your heart far enough, you will awaken (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=309&viewfull=1#post309). That awakened state can then be used in all areas of your life. It enabled me to produce my comprehensive (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#developing) work.

Hi:
Regarding my original version of today’s site, published in 2002, its longest essay was my American Empire (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm) essay. Only my big essay (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm) is larger. I suppose that its genesis was my first stint with Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=601&viewfull=1#post601), when my illusions about my society were harshly stripped away. I got to see Dennis go from “the people really care (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page3?p=624&viewfull=1#post624),” at the beginning, to “almost nobody cares (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#tailings)” a decade later, and nearly two decades after that (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/81-Vignettes-from-my-journey-and-how-I-learned-what-I-did-and-came-to-my-approach/page3?p=249&viewfull=1#post249), he admitted that his allies hurt him more than his enemies did (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#allies). I discovered that literal gangsters ran the county where I was raised (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page5?p=683&viewfull=1#post683), and the county courthouse, where I had my life’s pivotal moment (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page5?p=681&viewfull=1#post681), was just down the road from the neighborhood where I was raised. When I began my media studies (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#big), the war drums were beating for Iraq (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#attacking), which began a series of eye-openers for me that lasted for about three years. I read Howard Zinn’s account (http://ahealedplanet.net/columbus.htm#zinn) of Columbus’s heroic feat (http://ahealedplanet.net/columbus.htm), not long before I encountered David Stannard’s American Holocaust (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Stannard#American_Holocaust), and then it was nearly a decade of continual study of my great nation and its development, including Ward Churchill’s (http://ahealedplanet.net/columbus.htm#churchill) magnum opus, A Little Matter of Genocide, which he lost his career over, similar to Dennis’s being imprisoned (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page7?p=740&viewfull=1#post740) for not filing a form (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#bargain). The Father of our Country, whom my home state (http://ahealedplanet.net/pics.htm) is named after, as well as my nation’s capital (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#early), was just another mass-murdering thief (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#blueprint) and America’s richest man, partly from those thefts. The pious friar whom my grade school was named after (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#serra), who was sainted in 2015 (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#saint), was a genocidist. Over and over, the shining heroes held up to me were little more than thieves and murderers. Such are the icons of nationalist ideologies.
When I studied for my big essay, the political-economic, even Epochal, aspects of my nation became ever clearer. The English invasion (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#englishinvasion) was a relatively late event, after the Spanish had the Western Hemisphere largely to themselves for a century (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#first). The English rode the wave of a rising Europe (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal35) and reluctantly turned to coal for its energy, as the British Isles had been completely deforested (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#coaluse). Tapping the energy of coal, for smelting iron (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#coke) and powering machines (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#steamengine1), was the key initial development of the Industrial Revolution. Without that, the rest could not have happened. So, a rising England, with its “surplus population” of dispossessed peasants (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gamelaw), stumbled into a continent that was almost wholly unexploited, inhabited by peoples still at the horticultural and hunter-gatherer phases of the human journey. Hunter-gatherers lived in the Second Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal2), with minimal impacts on the lands, and horticultural peoples also had modest impacts. The peoples of the Eastern Woodlands largely lived in matrilineal horticultural societies (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#patrilineal1), which had not been seen in the Old World for millennia and was unheard of in Europe, who lived in societies far freer (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#captive) than anything that Europe was familiar with. The mound-building Mississippian culture (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#mississippian) was the political-economic equivalent of pre-state Fertile Crescent agrarian societies (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#natufian), and the forests and soils of North America were largely intact when Europe invaded.
When the Industrial Revolution, phase two began, with oil and electricity (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal45), the USA was at the forefront of it, as Americans quickly became history’s richest and most powerful people. No animal likes being coerced, and each Epoch of the human journey (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochaltable) became more humane than the one that preceded it, as humanity’s energy surplus (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#energysurplus) increased. The USA rode the wave of industrialization and a continent that had yet to be plundered of its Third and Fourth Epoch energy sources, but the USA pretended that it invented freedom, as it stole the continent (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#steal1) and annihilated its inhabitants (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#stannard) while becoming an imperial juggernaut (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#butler) in the process. But the USA also pretends that it is not an empire, although a presidential advisor candidly admitted it (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#rove) on the heels of a recent genocidal imperial foray, justified with lies (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#invading), as usual.
I wrote a ten-page essay in 1998, as Clinton bombed Iraq (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#sunny), which could be seen as prelude to my American Empire essay. If you had asked me what I was doing, writing my American Empire essay, back in 2000, I would have likely answered with something like, “To help shatter the illusions of American nationalism.” Today, I see it as helping Americans shake one of their most pernicious in-group ideologies (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ingroup), and to caution to anybody who thinks that the USA is some shining beacon of goodness (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#wtc). As Einstein said, nationalism is an infantile disease (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#einstein). When people wave the flag (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#flag), their brains shut down and primal instincts take over. Such people are almost effortlessly stampeded to their doom (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#lemmings). As I see it today, my American Empire essay is an exercise in helping cultivate sentience (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#sentience1), which is sorely lacking among the American people. But that essay can be generalized for any in-group, as exposing a series of conceits, lies really, which inculcate and enforce in-group ideologies. As Jesus said, love the enemy (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#enemy). I have witnessed the most brainless reactions to my work over the years, and mostly from people defending their American in-group from the affront of my work, and my American Empire essay is the essence of that challenge, along with my Lies that I was Raised With (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm) essay. My “peers” usually blow a fuse only a few pages into my work, such as this section (http://ahealedplanet.net/intro.htm#progress) of it. Their meltdowns can be something to behold, but that is not my intention. I seek to engage the awake and the awakening (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=309&viewfull=1#post309), not wake the sleeping. They won’t awaken with my writings (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#brink).

Neatherdals were human (https://mobile.nytimes.com/2017/01/11/magazine/neanderthals-were-people-too.html) an interesting article on Neanderthal and our arrogance in not recognizing them as human
Also interesting in that it talks about the spread of innovation

Hi:
When that voice spoke up for the first time (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#voice), I left the path of my science studies. I suppose that I began them again in Boston, when I began to understand how the heat pump worked (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#new), while Dennis began talking about free energy (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=613&viewfull=1#post613). Scientific heavyweights soon got involved (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page3?p=617&viewfull=1#post617), and I went back to accounting and helping run the business. I resumed my science studies in early 1989 (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page5?p=689&viewfull=1#post689), to help prepare any expert witnesses that we might line up. I recall reading the classic Clark biography of Einstein (https://www.amazon.com/Einstein-Life-Times-CLARK-RONALD/dp/B000HAYZ1S/ref=sr_1_2?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1484318190&sr=1-2) in 1989, but it was not until I moved to Ohio and begin hitting the books, studying patents (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page7?p=734&viewfull=1#post734), thermodynamics, the Michelson-Morley experiment (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michelson%E2%80%93Morley_experiment), and the like, that I really resumed my scientific studies. I met Brian in 1991 (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#meet) at a new science conference, but until 2003, I would call my studying efforts more scholarly than scientific. I was learning the scholar’s/historian’s craft more than the scientist’s in those days.
I began studying the “skeptics (http://ahealedplanet.net/dennis.htm#friends)” in the early 1990s, and in 1995, I stumbled into the Velikovsky issue (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#velikovsky) with this book (https://www.amazon.com/Sagan-Immanuel-Velikovsky-Charles-Ginenthal/dp/1561840750/ref=la_B001K8HVYY_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1484318566&sr=1-1), while on the trail of Carl Sagan’s debunking work (http://ahealedplanet.net/dennis.htm#sagan). I have been on the fringes of the Velikovsky issue ever since. For several years, I read the salvos fly between Velikovsky’s supporters and critics, and I knew that getting to the bottom of Velikovsky’s multidisciplinary hypothesis would take many years of study. After publishing my 2002 version of my site (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page9?p=808&viewfull=1#post808), I stated to my circles that resuming my science and math studies was high on my wish list, with Velikovsky’s hypothesis in mind, and I had hoped to take college classes in my “spare” time. When I resumed my career in 2003, however, I worked 60-70 hour weeks for most of the year, for the next decade. So, beginning with Uncle Bucky (http://ahealedplanet.net/roots.htm#fuller) and the Peak Oilers (http://ahealedplanet.net/scarcity.htm), I resumed my scientific studies in earnest, but largely through popularized works, while I wrestled with my monster of a midlife crisis (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#midlife). I did not perform my studies with Velikovsky’s hypothesis in mind, but my studies took me into the rudiments of astronomy (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#formation), geology, archeology, dating sciences (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#dating), and many other disciplines, which Velikovsky tried his hand at for formulating his hypothesis. In early 2014, as I was writing my big essay and had occasion to write about Velikovsky (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#velikovsky), related to the megafauna extinctions (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#australianmegafauna), I sat back and critically thought about his hypothesis, in light of what I had learned during the previous decade, and I could not think of any part of his hypothesis that stood up when compared against the latest scientific findings.
The idea of Venus’s erupting from Jupiter a few millennia ago is ludicrous, as is the idea that Mars had a recent near-miss with Earth. The idea that the megafauna were wiped out by celestial events is far more untenable than the climate change hypothesis (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#climatechange2), which I don’t buy at all. Velikovsky’s literal interpretations of Sumerian cuneiform are not taken seriously by any Sumerian scholar, and Sitchin did the same thing, with his literalist interpretations of humanity’s first writings. Like the Epic of Gilgamesh (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gilgamesh), early literary tales were largely fantasy, with some historical truth in them, similar to what became the Old Testament. Literalist interpretations of ancient manuscripts are shaky ways to formulate scientific hypotheses. No need to derive wild celestial explanations for Biblical events that likely never even happened, such as the Exodus (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#tales). As I finished my big essay, when I thought back to Velikovsky’s hypothesis, I discarded it as one of the many rabbit holes that I explored during my scholar’s journey.
The only area where I will give Velikovsky credit today is invoking catastrophic hypotheses (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#lyell) when uniformitarian theory was a dogma. Velikovsky died only a few years before a revival of catastrophic theory in the wake of the bolide hypothesis for the dinosaurs’ demise (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#cretaceousextinction). Mass extinctions finally became a respectable study in English-speaking nations, overturning a century of Darwinian dogma (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#darwin), and some scientists got carried away with using celestial events to explain mass extinctions (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#extinctions).
My view today is that Sagan’s sloppy and scurrilous attack on Velikovsky’s hypothesis (http://ahealedplanet.net/dennis.htm#velikovsky) revived interest in Velikovsky’s work, kind of unfairly. I think that the reception of Velikovsky’s hypothesis was scandalous by many influential scientists, but that did not make Velikovsky right. Scientific hypotheses die all the time at the hands of new facts, as Einstein noted, and long-discarded scientific ideas have often been revived after banishment for generations (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#pioneers), but I strongly doubt that much of Velikovsky’s theory (Napier and Clube (http://www.pibburns.com/catastro/clubenap.htm)’s work notwithstanding) will ever be revived in scientific circles, just like Hapgood’s Pole Shift (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_Hapgood#Polar_shift) hypothesis will likely never emerge again from the dustbin of scientific history. Even Einstein can be wrong.

Thanks Freeknowledge:
I’ll reply more later, but yes, this is a healthy trend in anthropology, which my essay update will deal a bit more about. If apes have many traits (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page7?p=801&viewfull=1#post801) once uniquely thought to be human, it is going to be hard to keep Neanderthals (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#neanderthal1) in their caves. :)
Another traffic note: this thread will reach 1.7 million views today, largely to the bots, but it seems that there are a few hundred regular readers of this thread (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#neanderthal1), which is my primary venue today for fishing for singers (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir). :)

Hi:
I just read an excellent analysis (http://www.counterpunch.org/2017/01/13/why-ridiculous-official-propaganda-still-works/) of the surreal direction that the American media (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#big) has lately taken. I don’t read Counterpunch much anymore, but it has long been one of the best voices on the Left (http://ahealedplanet.net/links.htm#counterpunch). Its late editor, Alexander Cockburn, was a little too ideologically opposed (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexander_Cockburn#Conspiracy_theories) to the idea that JFK was killed in a conspiracy and cover-up (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#wean) (Mike Parenti (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#parenti) noted that neither Cockburn nor Uncle Noam (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#chomsky) were versed in the slightest on the JFK evidence amassed by independent researchers, and both openly stated that they didn’t want to be, which made their opinions on the subject worthless) but if you can get past the ideology, Counterpunch has served a great function. I am not a Trump fan, have never voted Republican in my life and never will, but the so-called Left is really going out there, and here is a recent article on the myths circulating (http://takimag.com/article/top_10_trump_myths_gavin_mcinnes#axzz4VknoGZQw), even before the Trump golden shower disinformation tale made the rounds.
As I look back at my recent posts on my 2002 site’s essays (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page9?p=808&viewfull=1#post808), I see that I did not really do one on one of my favorite and earliest essays, on the lies that I was raised with (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm). As with so many other areas of my work, if I had not been awakened by my first stint with Dennis, as I could see the media make it up as it went, even for “investigative (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page5?p=687&viewfull=1#post687)” journalism, and then immediately worked for another company that the media and government targeted, in an effort to put it out of business (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#experience), I would likely have not been inspired to dig into my early indoctrination and conditioning like I did, exposing the worthlessness of my profession (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#getting), the lies around Saint Serra (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#serra), and study the media, beginning with Lies of Our Times (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#loot), which Uncle Ed (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#manufacturing) edited and Uncle Noam wrote an article a month for. I read the daily newspaper every day for 20 years, and now realize that I was receiving a form of brainwashing (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#big).
My digging into the lies around America’s Thanksgiving tradition (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#thanksgiving), the real story of that tragic hero Custer (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#custer), what the “settling (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#terrell)” of the American West was really like, how George Washington crafted the plan to steal a continent (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#blueprint), and the real story of Columbus’s heroic feat (http://ahealedplanet.net/columbus.htm), just came with the territory. The West’s censorship of Twain (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#twain) and Orwell (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#orwell) I discovered through Uncle Noam’s work, as I did regarding the media’s treatment of the Reagan administration’s genocides in Central America (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#central). As the war drums were beating when I moved to Ohio, a childhood friend called me up, parroting the Iraqi incubator story (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#incubator), and I’ll tell his story soon, as another cautionary tale on getting your social circles involved (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialcircle) in work like mine.
Like my exposure of the structural corruption in my profession (http://ahealedplanet.net/savings.htm#savings), I finished that “Lies That I Was Raised With” essay with a chapter on the historian’s ideal (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#objectivity) and how far short the profession has fallen, due to the standard in-group conflicts of interest (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ingroup), demonstrating once again that personal integrity is the world’s scarcest commodity (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#burn). Those kinds of performances were exactly the kind that got Brian O openly wondering if humanity was a sentient species (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#sentience), but his observation came in reaction to his scientific peers’ reaction to the idea of free energy. Orthodox scientists too often have been the high priests of materialism (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#mystical1), which is our Epoch’s (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal4) dominant religion.

Hi:
The Neanderthal article that Freeknowledge linked to (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1127027&viewfull=1#post1127027) did not have much new in it, but presented how indeed Neanderthals were denigrated until recently. But it was just like how all other non-Homo sapiens have been denigrated by our august species, which de Waal has written extensively on (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page9?p=787&viewfull=1#post787). I am coming to the end of his classic Chimpanzee Politics (https://www.amazon.com/Chimpanzee-Politics-Power-among-Apes/dp/0801886562), and it has been an interesting read, getting into the details more than his other books that I have read. I just purchased some more of his books, and related ones, and I guess that I am going to see these days as my chimp/bonobo days. I have studied the issue plenty before, but I am taking a deeper dive than usual, which I have longed to do for more than 20 years. Chimps and bonobos provide a great window into the human past, even human nature.
One finding that I keep seeing in chimp and bonobo studies is the same point that I make about the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5): social changes are dependent on the economic ones. People who think that we can somehow have some social movement, in which humanity suddenly becomes enlightened and lives in peace and happiness, conjuring it from our growing awareness, really don’t understand the human journey, much less what studies of chimps and bonobos are telling scientists.
It was not until some chimps found themselves isolated by the Congo River, and their gorilla competitors left and never returned, which doubled the food supply of those chimps, did they make the social, and ultimately biological, changes that resulted in bonobos (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#bonobo1). Bonobo societies are dominated by females, and like when horticultural humans became matrilineal (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#patrilineal1), bonobo societies are the most peaceful of all great ape societies, including humans.
In the wild, female chimpanzees do not form strong social bonds, and are kind of sex toys of the dominant males. But in captivity, when three square meals a day are guaranteed, with no work required, then female chimps begin to form coalitions, and I think that traces of the path to the sisterhood of bonobos can be discerned. Once their economic conditions changed, and captive chimps live far longer and healthier than wild ones do, at least in places such as the Arnhem Zoo (http://chimpansee.homestead.com/arnhemzoo.html), where de Waal did his seminal work, and while many behaviors of captive chimps can be seen in wild ones, there has also been marked social change, particularly females banding together like they do. In fact, when de Waal began his work, the colony was dominated by a female who died just last year (http://www.dutchnews.nl/news/archives/2016/04/the-netherlands-oldest-chimpanzee-dies-at-59/), at age 59. They removed her and another dominant female from the population, to let the males rise to dominance, which was controversial but highlights how female chimps rose in the hierarchy in captivity, with a radically different economy than seen in the wild.
This issue of Neanderthals (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#neanderthal1) having advanced cognitive abilities (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#mousterian) has not been disputed in scientific circles for quite some time, but is still slowly becoming acknowledged amongst the lay public. In my opinion, behaviorally modern humans (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#leap) drove Neanderthals to extinction (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#climateneanderthal), and likely violently, while interbreeding with them, as there is Neanderthal DNA in the human genome. That is not unusual. There is also Denisovan (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#denisovan) DNA in the human genome, and likely that of other “archaic” humans. I think that the term “human” can be confidently applied to Homo erectus onward, which includes Neanderthals and Denisovans, and we are almost certainly not finished finding the fossils of human species that will be new to science. If you want to consider australopiths (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#biped) and the “hobbits (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#hobbit)” as human, which may be island-dwarfed australopiths, I won’t argue strenuously against it, but Homo habilis (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#habilis) is the argued founder of the Homo genus, and I can see why. But behaviorally modern humans won the contest, and all other human lines were driven to extinction, and it would be no surprise to discover that Homo erectus drove australopiths to extinction. On the evolutionary scene, there is nothing strange about that (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#pliocene), and the tool-mastering human line, which was far more proficient than what came before it, would have had great advantages over its more “primitive” progenitors.
Many scientists have urged caution on the idea of behaviorally modern humans driving Neanderthals to extinction, and some caution is warranted, but relatively disinterested scientists see the other human species as just more megafauna casualties (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#australianmegafauna) of the rise of behaviorally modern humans. This is not a very speculative idea, but for humans defending their ancestors (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ingroup), it can be hard to swallow, so we see all sorts of climate change hypotheses (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#climateneanderthal), but I strongly doubt that climate change had much to do with it. Humans are a very adaptable lot, and Neanderthals had been thriving in Europe for a quarter million years or more when behaviorally modern humans arrived, which coincided with the Neanderthal extinction, just like the “coincidence” for most of the world’s megafauna, when behaviorally modern humans arrived. Some scientists, such as Clive Finlayson, whom that New York Times article discussed (https://mobile.nytimes.com/2017/01/11/magazine/neanderthals-were-people-too.html), have become strong Neanderthal advocates (http://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-19623929), maybe even too strong, as Finlayson has modeled alleged Neanderthal regalia (https://blogs.scientificamerican.com/observations/files/2012/09/Clive-Finlayson-with-feathers.jpg).
The Neolithic Expansion (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#maledna) drove hunter-gatherer men from the gene pool, as did the Bantu Expansion (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#bantu), as did Spaniards when they invaded the Caribbean (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#spaindisplaced). The idea that expanding Homo sapiens drove all other human species to extinction is not a stretch, based on the evidence.

Hi:
Here is a brief personal aside. My journey (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm) has been preposterous enough that few people can believe that it really happened, and I don’t get to publicly tell the most amazing parts of it. One unique aspect of my journey is that I am a free energy revolutionary who also works in corporate America. I don’t know of anybody else like that, not who has played at my level. I have always refused to work for industries such as war and earth-raping ones, and the capitalist ideal (getting rich (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#profit)) is not exactly an inspiring one, but I always try to use my skillset to make lives easier, to get the job done in the best way, and the like. However, finding a place that can truly use and appreciate my skills is not easy. Making something better, making it to last, and the like, is not really a corporate goal, when money-grubbing is the overriding imperative, going for the quick capitalist kill. The people who tried to steal Dennis’s companies (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#shocked) all thought like that, as did the organized suppressors (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#levels1), as does Godzilla (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc), although there are many dark levels of that game, such as Godzilla’s toying with a planet’s fate (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#spaceshipearth).
I am a lot closer to the end of my career than the beginning, and as I look back, it has largely been one of frustration, as my skills would get used for a time, and productively, to only then be cast aside in the rush for money, the incomprehension of those I worked for, and the like. I watched a company go down (http://ahealedplanet.net/trucking.htm#footnotes), which would have thrived if they had comprehended my ideas. I am at one of those career crossroads today, and am not sure what is next. Then I woke up to Melinda’s latest (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?32399-A-Future-Earth&p=1127750&viewfull=1#post1127750), read some recent NDE accounts (http://iands.org/research/nde-research/nde-archives31/newest-accounts.html), and am recharged to go back at it, racing with the rats. Such is my life. I got to do some hiking yesterday, in the snow and ice, through logged and raped forests (a pal wanted to do some exploring), and it was still OK. I am not complaining, as this is the fate that was laid before me, but it has been a very human journey, juggling my life as I try to help the biggest event in the human journey (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5) manifest. There has been nothing easy about it.

Hi:
Some of what follows I have not told publicly before, or it no longer exists on my site. I ordered Ralph McGehee’s (http://ahealedplanet.net/mcgehee.htm) book in 1990, when I saw an ad for it in Lies of Our Times (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#loot). Those days were at the very beginning of my media studies. I had long ago heard about my close relative’s secret life as a CIA contract agent (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#cia), heard about Dennis’s murderous adventures in Southeast Asia (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page9?p=778&viewfull=1#post778), and had pals who were in Vietnam, as murderers, deserters, and the like, after I nearly joined the military myself (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm#business). I got to hear about our boys’ evil deeds in Vietnam (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#interrogate), had already been radicalized when I encountered Ralph’s work, so little about the USA’s monumental crimes in Southeast Asia could surprise me, but Ralph’s account was something new to me, which paralleled mine in ways.
Ralph’s book began with his moment of truth (http://ahealedplanet.net/mcgehee.htm#saigon), which was similar to Dennis’s (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#voice), which was similar to mine (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page5?p=681&viewfull=1#post681). But after his moving beginning, his story was kind of dry, recounting his experiences in the CIA, moving from one nation to another, oblivious as to what he was really involved with. I remember being about halfway through the book and laid it aside, reading other stuff more interesting to me at the time. Ralph’s book sat on my shelf, half read, for a month or so, and I remember looking at it during that interlude, thinking that I had better resume reading it to the end, out of a sense of scholarly duty. Boy, am I glad that I did, because Ralph’s dry presentation of his early career was just a warm-up to a series of haunting revelations. Ralph’s career breakthrough was received by scuttling his program (http://ahealedplanet.net/mcgehee.htm#colby), and he could not understand why. He came up with the wrong answer. Communism could not be damned as an evil if the peasantry wanted it. Ralph’s volunteering for Saigon duty in 1967 finally brought him to his place of understanding, and he nearly did not survive the experience, as Dennis almost did not survive. My moment of truth was gentler.
Six years later, as I hurriedly wrote those 400 pages (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page9?p=805&viewfull=1#post805) and slapped it onto the Internet, I contacted Ralph, asking for his permission to publish my synopsis of his book, and he consented. My site came down several months later, and did not reappear for more than a year, as I began publishing the essays (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page9?p=809&viewfull=1#post809) that became my site as it stands today. I hardly contacted anybody for more than a year, as I studied and wrote away. One person reproduced my entire site, and as I came out of my study and writing hibernation, I discovered that my synopsis of Ralph’s book was reproduced in several places on the Internet. I contacted one former military operative who had published my synopsis, asking him where he got it from, and he replied that he thought that it came from Ralph. I was stunned. I hurriedly wrote it, as I cranked out those hundreds of pages, and when I saw what Ralph had done, I contacted him and wrote an essay devoted to his work. What you see today (http://ahealedplanet.net/mcgehee.htm) is close to the 1998 version that I wrote, and I doubt that I will change it much more.
I began my relationship with Ralph after that, which lasted for a few years. Ralph was busy with his CIABASE efforts (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ralph_McGehee#Writings.2C_speeches_after_CIA_service), I was busy with my writing and study, but we had plenty of exchanges in those years. I was in a debt-forgiveness march the night before the teargas at the WTO (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1999_Seattle_WTO_protests), and we commiserated in those days. While others had written about Ralph, he said that my summary was the best that he had seen on his work. I think it was because it takes one to know one. Ralph was another awakened overgrown Boy Scout (http://ahealedplanet.net/paths.htm#scouts). It took another awakened (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=309&viewfull=1#post309) Boy Scout to truly recognize him. There really aren’t many like us, and it is one of the loneliest feelings in the world (http://ahealedplanet.net/camelot.htm#lonely).
Although Ralph always jumped through the CIA’s legal hoops, it did not stop their illegal harassment of him. Ralph retired in the shadow of Langley, and the local police seemed to train its goons by practicing on Ralph, trying to set him up for shoplifting and other crimes, and their efforts eventually led to bodily injury. Ralph finally decided that he had had enough around 2000, planned to move to Florida, near one of his children, stop his CIABASE activities, and quietly live out his remaining years. He sold off his intelligence library, of a thousand volumes, for a song, to a university, and I would have happily paid more for it, but the university was probably the best place for it. I bought the first issues of Lies of Our Times from Ralph (before I subscribed to it – I have the complete collection), and that first image (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#loot) comes from Ralph’s copy. Those issues have Ralph’s mailing label on them, and are about my only mementos from our friendship.
When the Bush regime (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#wtc) stole the 2000 election, the harassment of Ralph increased to the point where he was afraid to leave his home, and in August 2001, he sent me that CIA statement to put on my site (http://ahealedplanet.net/mcgehee.htm#statement), and it has been there ever since. It is not the only one like it, and Ralph said that mine seemed to reduce the FBI’s harassment of him. A month later, 9/11 happened, Ralph sought the lowest profile that he could, and I have left him alone since then. Another voice silenced, in The Land of the Free. The idea of freedom of speech (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#mcgehee) in the USA is an obscene joke. You are free to speak up, and the goons are free to wipe you out on behalf of their patrons.

Wade

Hi:
Here is a good place to begin with my relationship with Brian. I have written about him plenty (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/73-Darren-Geffert-s-introductory-posts?p=130&viewfull=1#post130), but now he comes into the story of the lessons that I learned. I have somewhere written that the man who ran the local chapter of the new science organization where they had their annual conference seemed to be trying to get rid of me when he sent me to pick up Brian from the airport (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#meet). I should thank him one day. I did not know who Brian was, and within a minute or two in my car, he told me that it was Sparky Sweet whom Mr. Advisor told me about (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#sweet) the previous year. Within a half-hour, we were driving past the front gates of Wright Patterson Air Force Base and joking about taking busloads of people from the conference and arriving at those gates, asking for a tour of Hangar 18 and the Blue Room. He probably told me about his astronaut background on that ride. At that time, I was going to a therapist (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#therapy) for my post-traumatic stress disorder as a result of my Ventura days (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#mr), and was a couple of years into my studies (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page7?p=739&viewfull=1#post739) that eventually became my public writings. After driving Brian to that conference, we had no more contact for the next five years (I found my job at that trucking company (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/83-My-days-in-the-trucking-industry?p=272&viewfull=1#post272) a week or two later), until he published Miracle in the Void (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#miracle). I became that book’s biggest fan and Brian called me a few months later, to arrange for him to meet Dennis at a New Age expo where they both talked, as Dennis began barnstorming the USA just when Brian began his ride as the Paul Revere of Free Energy (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#revere). Around the same time, Brian called me to be a “ringer” for his appearance on Art Bell’s show, as I recall, to ask him new energy questions as he promoted his book.
I do not recall talking to Brian for another couple of years, when I called him as he was downloading the 1998 Face on Mars image (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#new), over the slow Internet connections that we had in those days. I did not contact him again for another three years, after I got to the bottom of the moon landings issue (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#apollo), partly because of him. That was in June or July of 2001, and Brian invited me to hang out with him in California, and I did. It was at almost exactly the same time as I posted that CIA letter on my site for Ralph (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page10?p=821&viewfull=1#post821). While driving Brian around on that trip, I met Mark (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=811647&viewfull=1#post811647), hung out with other free energy luminaries, and those were about my last days of “innocence,” as 9/11 happened the next month (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#wtc). I was interested to hear how Brian’s Paul Revere ride went, and he went into a litany of the crazed reactions of denial and fear (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#reactions) that he received from his “peers” on his ride. That was when I first heard Brian openly wonder whether humanity was a sentient species (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#sentience), and I sadly understood. That conversation happened right after we were nearly run out of town for trying to interest California’s governor in free energy (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#governor), as Enron (http://ahealedplanet.net/savings.htm#enron) was raping the state.
As I watched the World Trade Center towers burning before they collapsed, I knew then that my efforts to right humanity’s ship were too little and too late. I had been in my midlife crisis (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#midlife) for more than a year by then, and 9/11’s genocidal aftermath (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#invading) sent me into the dark phase my midlife crisis, which lasted until 2006, when Dennis invited me to the White House (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=694872&viewfull=1#post694872). It was five years of nearly continual emotional agony. If I had not stopped drinking in 2000, just as my midlife crisis was beginning, I might not be here today. I would have drunk myself to death, as my close relative did (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#cia), who did it partly to deal with his secret life as a CIA contract agent. His fate is not unusual in that milieu, and I could have easily become a casualty of the bottle.
After our meeting in California, Brian and I did not interact much, if at all, until he contacted me in the spring of 2003, not long after Bush’s Mission Accomplished speech (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mission_Accomplished_speech), to help him found the New Energy Movement (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#nem). But that story will come later. There is a great deal to still write about, as far as building that 2002 version of my site (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page9?p=808&viewfull=1#post808), and other lessons that I learned in those days.

Hi:
It is time for another cautionary tale. I could tell a few like this, such as that old girlfriend (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page3?p=622&viewfull=1#post622) who gave me a preview of what was in store for me, and one more should get the idea across in no uncertain terms. Everybody in the free energy field, who has played at the high levels, has stories like what I am about to tell.
One reason why humanity has been successful has been its ability to learn vicariously. Monkeys have calls for various hazards, with one for snakes, one for birds of prey, etc., to alert their societies of imminent dangers. With their mastery of language, humans can provide more detailed information on hazards, so that others can learn vicariously and not walk into a den of lions unaware to take a nap, play with a python, and the like. Try as I might to dissuade it, almost all of my pupils have gone out to proselytize to their social circles (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialcircle), and I always hear back on relationships and even careers that were wrecked by doing that. I hope that more people can learn vicariously. :)
One of the greatest hazards of the free energy pursuit is what the magnitude of its impact does to people’s minds. Free energy will be the biggest event in the human journey (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5), by far, and it does not take much intelligence to begin to understand. If it came through the capitalist model, it would dwarf everything that came before it (http://ahealedplanet.net/risk.htm#quadrillion), making Bill Gates appear a pauper to all who lived in a world powered by free energy. People going off the deep end and declaring themselves to be the Second Coming (http://ahealedplanet.net/conun.htm#grandeur) or Messiah (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#messiah) are just part of the absurd scenery. The coming of free energy will end the world as we know it, so few people have a lukewarm reaction to the idea of free energy, and I have seen it all (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level0) over the past 30 years (I became Dennis’s partner (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page3?p=614&viewfull=1#post614) 30 years ago yesterday). When people are around those who actually pursue free energy, the reactions escalate by orders of magnitude.
I have watched many people turn into orcs before my eyes (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#shocked), lusting after The One Ring, watched them go insane, and have many other dysfunctional reactions. Some around me would try to help, but as I learned, it was not really with the goal in mind, which is bringing free energy to the world, but to somehow cash in by being close to it, serving their egos and not the cause. That is one reason behind my “give it away (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#numbers)” strategy. Also, I have to own some of this. After getting clobbered like I did, I spent years trying to understand why the world worked so starkly differently from what I was taught (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page10?p=818&viewfull=1#post818). The vast majority of humanity does not have the personal integrity to question their conditioning, and usually those who awoke past it (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=309&viewfull=1#post309) did it the hard way. Trying to wake up those around you is extremely hazardous. Those closest to you will often try to take you out, when you threaten the self-serving delusions of their in-group (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ingroup). This is just a hazard of being a social animal (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialreason). I did not really understand when I left Ventura that the same lack of integrity that I witnessed during my free energy quest was the very same lack of integrity for why people eagerly defend the lies of their in-groups, and will even embrace certain death (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#doom) rather than question their indoctrination.
It took me many years to realize that all of the reactions of fear (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level5) and denial (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level1) to the idea of free energy, to embracing certain death, to eagerly believing and defending the lies, were all facets of the same phenomenon, which was just my journey’s primary lesson (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#burn) generalized to all areas of our lives. I had a delusion that they could handle the truth, heck, were even interested in knowing the truth. Almost nobody on Earth is, so I have to own my part in what happened, of exposing people to information that challenged their self-serving beliefs, and that begins my final anecdote on this issue.
Even before Junípero Serra elementary school (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#serra) opened, I caught the bus to school in front of a boy’s house, across the street from our future school that was under construction. We were always friendly but never close pals in those early years. He was every bit as intelligent as I was, and at nearly a year younger than me, they skipped him a grade when he began school. He is an Ashkenazi Jew (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#jewish), so his genius-level IQ was not unusual, and his father wanted to become a doctor but was unable to, so his father’s hopes of “my son the doctor” were heaped on that boy. He became a doctor of pharmacy instead, I am sure to his father’s everlasting disappointment. In high school, as we registered for classes, we suddenly decided to enroll in the same classes, and we did so through high school graduation, and both had the same 3.9 GPA. In our first month of high school, he “burned” me by “volunteering” me for a trip to Europe (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#europe). I did not want to go, and had the summer of my life (I am mentioned by my tour leader (http://articles.latimes.com/1997/sep/03/local/me-28394) in this book (https://www.amazon.com/Horizons-unlimited-Imogene-Bercaw/dp/B0006QVXLI)). He was scheduled to go on the same tour the next summer (seeing how I had been “burned” :) ), but his parents were faced with the decision of funding his college or a trip to Europe, not both, and he never went.
After high school, he went off to the big city of LA (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=406928&viewfull=1#post406928), attended UCLA, immersed himself in fraternity life (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=578139&viewfull=1#post578139), and the like, while I attended the local community college, where I eventually met Mr. Professor (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#adventures) after that voice spoke up (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#voice). We slowly grew apart after high school, but he had a younger brother. Born only little more than a year apart, while the older brother was skipped a grade, the other was held back a grade, making them three years apart in school, so I never went to school with his younger brother. The younger brother did not get his brother’s brains, let us say. But we became close, just as his brother and I grew apart. He followed me to the same university (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/California_Polytechnic_State_University), again, after I graduated, just as he followed me at all schools from fourth grade through his college diploma. My relationship with him will be the focus of my cautionary tale, which will take a little telling.
Best,

Hi:
To continue that cautionary tale, almost more important than our friendship, his parents treated me like another son, and his father was in ways a better father to me than my own father was. He was a classic Jewish mensch (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mensch). While I was being raised with the idea that I would not quite be a man until I had been a soldier (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm#business), in the early 1970s, when it looked like his sons might be drafted to fight in the USA’s evil invasion of Southeast Asia (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#vietnam1), he was planning to move his family to Australia. Only the end of the draft (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conscription_in_the_United_States#End_of_conscription) kept that family in the USA. My friend’s mother was raised during the Blitz in London (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Blitz), and left Europe as soon as she could. Jews are mobile. :)
That friend saw me go from a happy teenager to an unhappy professional in LA (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=406928&viewfull=1#post406928). He lived in Newport Beach while I worked in skid row, and those contrasts are the greatest in LA. We saw plenty of each other, and when I moved away for the second time to Seattle (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#voice2), he understood. When I became Dennis’s partner (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page3?p=614&viewfull=1#post614), I gave away 10% of my shares (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page3?p=617&viewfull=1#post617), and that friend received some. A month later, his mother called me, to get in on the action (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page3?p=622&viewfull=1#post622), and they became part of my second wave of investors. They put up $1,000. A few months later, we were moving back to Ventura, because of the secret deal that Mr. Mentor made with Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page4?p=647&viewfull=1#post647), so my friend got a front-row seat to what happened in Ventura (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#mr). He came to Ventura from Newport Beach often during those next three years. He was the person who called me up in December 1988, telling me that he was glad that he was not me (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page5?p=683&viewfull=1#post683), and I could not blame him. I would have rather been anyplace else on Earth. He was my most supportive friend during the Ventura nightmare, but I now know that there was a voyeuristic aspect to his interest in me. I had been in situations that he could barely fathom, and he saw my life get wrecked. It fascinated him, in a kind of horrific way.
He saw me sacrifice my life (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#mortgage), and he gets some credit for my marriage. During one visit to my home, he told my future wife that I was the greatest human being that he ever met. His endorsement helped her sort me out from the other aspirants for her hand (and that is another long story that I will never tell publicly). After the dust settled in Ventura, I got married, moved away from my home town (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page6?p=706&viewfull=1#post706), and never returned. But that friend stayed close. I took him on the only two backpacks of his life, in the Cascades (http://ahealedplanet.net/pics.htm), in 1993 and 1996, paid to fly him out to Ohio for a week, in 1995, and he came to visit me soon after I moved back to Seattle. But I need to back up to the genesis of the end of our relationship.
My mother was a TV addict and I was raised on it, until I gave it up during my first year of college (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/70-Distinguishing-the-wheat-from-the-chaff-and-my-life-s-journey?p=102&viewfull=1#post102) and never went back. As I look back, it was a key moment in my journey of awakening, as I unhooked from the most potent brainwashing technology in the USA. But my former friend is likely a TV addict to this day. He was the person who called me right after Dennis was arrested, telling me of the news clip that was being aired in LA (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#deputy). He got a dose through me of how the media played the game, but it did not dissuade him from parroting what he saw on TV. For instance, he called me in anger about the Iraq incubator story (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#incubator). He was not angry at the media, but swallowed the story whole. I was just beginning my media studies then, and would soon receive my first issue of Lies of Our Times (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#loot). After being on the receiving end of the media’s lies so many times by then, I was quite skeptical of the “news.” My friend called me regularly, parroting what was on the evening new shows, while I was beginning my media studies, and encountering Uncles Noam (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#chomsky), Ed (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#manufacturing), and the like was revelatory for me in those days. I bought a copy of the first media analysis book I ever read, Unreliable Sources (https://www.amazon.com/Unreliable-Sources-Guide-Detecting-Media/dp/0818405619), and sent it to my friend. I hoped that he would begin to understand that he was drinking from a poisoned well by watching the TV news, or even reading the newspaper, but after a sobering moment of reflection after reading the book, he was soon calling me again and parroting the TV news. It was an early lesson for me on these issues. People need the egocentric propaganda that they fill their heads with. It would be very difficult to ever again take the American media seriously after reading Unreliable Sources, but it just did not seem to sink in with my friend.
As I look back, that was really the beginning of the end of our friendship. My friend’s TV reality was just too incompatible with mine. If he could have left it at that, our relationship might have survived, but he then began doing something that I have now witnessed many times, and I am weary of the process. My friend’s interest in my journey and what I learned now began to set up extreme cognitive dissonance (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#cognitive) in him, and I am not sure how conscious he was of it, but in almost every conversation since his reading Unreliable Sources, he challenged my developing worldview, and he did it in the most inflammatory way possible. With a brother who was every bit as intelligent as I was, he knew that he could not match wits with me, and it was stupid to even try, but he did, continually, and it was very draining. One pal called it “sword fighting,” and it is similar to the trolling phenomenon on the Internet (http://ahealedplanet.net/critics.htm#troll).
I went from applying to the Air Force Academy (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm#business) to becoming a pacifist by age 19, partly as a result of my spiritual studies (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#seth). Unlike my friend, I am a person whose convictions were tested, and harshly (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#it). Almost everybody on Earth sees themselves as victims (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#weakness), but because of their long journey (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm#anti), Jews seem to have an extra helping of that mentality, and maybe that was partly behind my friend’s ardor. Over the next several years, my friend and I had at least 50 conversations in which he would try to maneuver the conversation into portraying a situation that justified righteous violence against the bad guys. His arguments came from about a comic book, George Bush the Second (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#wtc) level of intelligence. Impatience is my Achilles heel (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#reading), and I get to work on it every day, but I almost never had to work on it more than listening to all of those violence-justifying conversations that my friend engaged me in. Those conversations always ended badly on my end. I always exposed the misinformation and irrationality that underlaid my friend’s perspective, but he always came back for more. It was irritating and burdensome, and I tried to avoid having such conversations with him. But he was having none of it and kept plowing ahead with his predilection for violence, but always of the armchair fantasy kind, not related to any real-world experiences.
After interacting with Uncle Howard (http://ahealedplanet.net/zinn.htm), Peter Ward (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page6?p=738&viewfull=1#post738), Brian O (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=918852&viewfull=1#post918852), and the like, I know that my work is world class, and trying to use it to help manifest the biggest event in the human journey (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5) is something that I take very seriously, to put it mildly. My estimation of my work’s worth is not just my ego talking, but what I have received from people that I highly respect, some who are world authorities. But I long ago learned the truth of that saying attributed to Jesus, that prophets have no honor in their home towns. That world authorities would rave about my work would mean nothing to my friend, even though he also knew that my mind functioned leaps and bounds above his. He saw me grow up in his neighborhood, and by golly, he had an opinion!
Over those several years he repeatedly did his best to banish the challenge to his worldview that I represented, even when he saw what I went through and knew that he really could not honestly win a debate with me. As I look back, he was abusing our friendship, and it wore on me. I never called him up to talk about my latest scholarly lessons, not after he began parroting the evening news again, but I had to regularly field his obsession for finding situations, largely fantastic scenarios that he would dream up, that justified righteous violence. What I also learned from the experience was that when somebody begins trying to justify murder, if you don’t agree with their logic, you become their target. In ways I have to thank my friend, as I receive the lessons of his inane arguments before I began interacting with the public.
There was always love between us, but he was really getting on my nerves as the years went by. On the 1996 backpack, he disregarded my advice on his footgear and bought some cheap boots that turned his feet into a bloody mess on the second day of a six-day backpack. He lost the boots that he wore on the 1993 trip, when he followed my instructions, decided to go with cheap boots, and was nearly delirious in pain for most of the trip. That was a lesson for me, and I am kind of a trip Nazi anymore, and will not allow unprepared people to go on trips with me, as it can put the entire party in jeopardy.
When I moved back to Seattle and he visited me in the fall of 1997, he lectured me on how I was not an obedient member of the herd. I am not taking any rhetorical liberties here. He literally admonished me for not drinking the Kool-Aid of American nationalism and other dominant ideologies (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#dominant), while extolling his virtues of being a proud member of the herd, where he found safety. He was not the only one doing that in those days. It got back to me that my family thought that my public writings (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#sunny) would get me in trouble with Washington State’s power structure. My friend and relatives actually had to admit that I was right, but being right and attacked was not as preferable as being wrong and silent (or right and silent), in their eyes. Those frank admissions were rather refreshing, as they admitted their cowardice and preoccupation with their self-interest, instead of getting into specious arguments with me. With most family members, I can talk about sports and the weather, and that is about it. Anything else gets into areas where the conversation becomes unpleasant, as they parrot the news and defend their delusional worldviews.
Again, I have to own some of that. I know that my personal integrity is extraordinary, sadly (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#burn), and I can’t expect anybody around me to match it, but it took me years to understand that that lack of integrity extends to their egocentric worldviews, which they will defend to the death, even if it means embracing certain death (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#doom). They don’t want to hear anything that challenges it, and I am partly responsible for my friend’s escalating reactions to me. Even though he knew that he was in the wrong, his ego could not let it go. He had to make himself right by trying to prove me wrong, even though in sane moments, he knew that his task was hopeless. And that led to the end of our relationship, and worse, and that will take some telling.
Best,
Wade

Hi:
I got married in the minister’s living room in a ten minute ceremony (across the street from the county complex where my life was ruined), and my wife and I had one witness each, and my friend was mine (my wife’s sisters also attended), and he helped us move out of our house the next day. His mother typed up my wife’s master’s thesis, I helped clean up their disheveled house, and many events like that happened over the years. My friend had a troubled childhood and nearly burned down his family’s home when he was twelve or so, my mother came over and comforted him, and they were close ever since. Our families had numerous ties like that.
I can’t recall the exact year, but I believe that it was a year or two after moving to Ohio, when my friend called me up, telling me that my mother had just left his parent’s home. She showed them a scrapbook that she had made (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=400492&viewfull=1#post400492) of the libelous articles about our company, telling them the story of her son the criminal. My mother had refused to speak to me after the raid, and we had not spoken for years at that moment. When I heard of her “my son the criminal” scrapbook tour, I had been through so much by that time that it did not even hurt anymore. I received much worse from close family members, but my relationship with my mother was never the same after the Ventura experience (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#mr). I saw her three times after I moved away from Ventura, in conjunction with family reunions that I arranged and usually paid for, until her death in 2012.
So, there were many close connections between our families. In 1998, I was working on my site, doing my studies and writing. After college graduation, my friend became a middle school teacher. After a decade or so of that, he decided to go back to school and become a nurse, and moved in with his parents to attend that local community college that offered a two-year nursing program. He got out of debt when he quit his job and moved in with his parents, as he played the starving college student. He could have taken loans, but chose not to. Other than some help from Dennis for a few months in 1997, before his company collapsed, I was on my own with my writing and study, with my wife working and me maxing out our credit cards. I went back to work in early 1999, and worked almost continuously for the next two years (other than that summer of World War II studies (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page9?p=809&viewfull=1#post809)).
In late 1998, my friend called me, and for the first time, he asked me for money. I think it was for books for school or something similar. I was living off of my credit cards, and tried to tell him so, and his reply was, “I would do it for you!” He could have done what I did, getting a credit card for his purchases (we all got credit card applications almost daily back then, with the first Fed-fueled bubble), but he was somehow opposed to going into bank debt. So I had to borrow on my credit card to loan him the money. He was abusing our friendship once again, and as he used his friendship to secure that loan, he mentioned that sometime in the future he needed some work done on his car, and that he might hit me up again for more. I was not an enthusiastic lender. His brother, the doctor of pharmacy, was making great money, but he was hitting me up. That “someday” literally came a week later, when my friend called up and asked for more money. When I mentioned how quickly “someday” was, he said, “I would do it for you!” I lent him the money, about $1,200 in total, and soon went back to work at a dot-com company, with that money to him being part of my decision.
Not long afterward, he called me up to have one of his standard violence-justifying conversations. I had been writing very publicly since 1991 (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#jesus) about the USA’s imperial behavior, largely regarding Iraq, and I kind of predicted 9/11 (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#sunny), and there my friend was, calling me up to cheer whomever we were bombing. This was not long after loaning him that money, and I asked him to refrain from calling me about political issues. It was the same tired conversation that we had had at least 50 times before, in which he parroted the TV news.
Living on the West Coast, particularly cities such as LA, San Francisco, and Seattle, is a great way to meet people from all over the world. I live across the street from Microsoft’s headquarters, and my neighborhood is a little world’s fair, as my neighbors are nerds from across the world, from China to India to the Middle East to Eastern Europe. My friend tried to become worldly by cultivating relationships with foreign nationals, which is not hard to do in those cities, and he had some pals from Yugoslavia. But the immigrants to the USA are often from ruling classes, not the impoverished peoples from around the world, or if they are, they pick America’s fruits and vegetables, harvest mushrooms in the forests, work in factories and fast food establishments, and are not the upper-class professionals that my friend and I would encounter in our daily lives. Where I work today has employees from across the world, and I am in constant interaction with people whose mother tongue is not English. As somebody who is hard of hearing, it is challenging.
When Bill Clinton began bombing Serbia, my friend called me up to cheer the bombing (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#friends), stating that the Serbs “only understand violence.” He got that little ditty from his upper-class Yugoslavian pals. That was the last straw for me, and it was for him, too. I told him that I had asked that he not call me up to talk politics, and he berated me for not “respecting” his opinion. He was right. I didn’t. We were finished. There was the matter of the $1,200 that he essentially extorted from me. I wrote to his parents, noted that my friendship with their son had ended, that he owed me $1,200, and that I wanted him to pay it to his parents, not me, and they could become whole from the $1,000 that they had invested in my company. My friend later wrote me, in appreciation of my gesture. I let him know that he was welcome, but I did not want to interact with him. I was busy with my World War II and Holocaust studies and writings, and that last thing that I needed was interacting with him, an Ashkenazi Jew, of all people.
Over the years, some have accused me of being a megalomaniac. However, every time that somebody did that, it was to try to deflect attention from their deep personality issues as they attacked me, because they did not get from me what they wanted. Every time somebody did that, I withdrew from the relationship, and each time, I later heard about their meltdowns, with some becoming candidates for institutionalization. I wake up every day with my ego, have to deal with it each day, and I do my best to not let it get the best of me. Not many can do what I do and not go off the deep end. Some have declared themselves to be the Second Coming (http://ahealedplanet.net/conun.htm#grandeur) or Messiah (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#messiah), go Über-warrior (http://ahealedplanet.net/camelot.htm#warriors), be overcome by greed (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#greed), and so on (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#shocked). I have seen it all, and I have had to do my best to stay grounded, and hiking in nature (http://ahealedplanet.net/pics.htm) is one of my strategies.
You will see how I know this in coming posts, but a few months after I contacted his parents, he wrote me an email. I had my email address on my site from 1996 to 2002, so anybody could contact me. He disguised his identity in that email, posing as somebody who stumbled upon my site, and gave me high praise. I gave the usual cordial and terse thanks for reading. He was testing his theory that I was a megalomaniac, but I responded in a modest way. Some weeks later, I received another email from him. He did not disguise his identity that time, and said that he wanted to renew our friendship. I was in the middle of the study and writing that damaged my marriage (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page9?p=809&viewfull=1#post809), and the last thing that I needed was to interact with him. I was open to it maybe someday, but I responded by asking that we put off any kind of rapprochement for some time.
Like a lover spurned, he flew into a tirade, extolling his benevolence in contacting me again while hurling several insults my way. His tantrum reminded me why I did not want to interact with him. I was finished with him. I could not afford to have “friends” who were like albatrosses around my neck, not with what I was attempting. He was far from the only parasite in my life, and I eventually had to let them all go. In every instance, they attacked me when they did not think that I gave them what they “deserved,” and in each instance, they ended the relationship, and I was relieved when they did. This is a hazard of being an overgrown Boy Scout (http://ahealedplanet.net/paths.htm#scouts). In our world of scarcity and fear, people quest after people like us, will bleed us dry if they can (that hooker (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#hooker) is one example of many), and will become indignant if the well runs dry. It happened many times with friends and family members, to the extent that I am very careful about any social interaction with people. And among my fellow travelers, what I am relating here is a typical story, which I am getting into the details of, as a cautionary tale for gung-ho newcomers to the free energy field.
Like in the movie Fatal Attraction (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fatal_Attraction), my former friend was not finished with me, and he would later commit crimes against me, which is coming.
Best,
Wade

Hi:
After my friend’s tantrum in 1999, I was more than done with him. The worst part, for me, was not interacting with his parents again, especially his father. They are almost certainly dead by now. But it was my friend’s family. I was not about to cause any friction with his family, interacting with them would have risked it, and would have been a low-integrity thing for me to do.
As I have written plenty, my relationship with my mother was never the same after the Ventura days (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page10?p=825&viewfull=1#post825), but she stayed with me for a week in 1996, soon before I left Ohio, while I was working on that first site of mine (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page9?p=805&viewfull=1#post805), while my youngest brother lived with me. I saved or supported all of my immediate family, and to give you an idea of how it all went for me, before she died, our relationship became the best one that I had with my immediate family. I no longer have contact with my brothers or father, who all attacked me and disowned me, which just comes with this territory. What I am about to relate about my ex-friend pales next to what my family did, which I will not publicly discuss while they are alive.
In February 2001, my nearly two-year stint of full-time work ended, and it was back to study and writing, which I did continually until I finished my site in September 2002 (I also had a 15-hour per week job as a controller for a dot-com startup). One agonizing day in February, after a dozen years of study and writing, I finally came to terms with the reality that I would never write a book. The Internet style that I was using was not compatible with writing a book, and once I gave up on the idea of writing a book, it became much easier to do my writing.
As I look back, I can tell that I was groping toward that comprehensive perspective that encountering Bucky’s work (http://ahealedplanet.net/roots.htm#fuller) two years later helped crystalize. The message that I have to impart will not work in the confines of a book. It is far larger than that. I have made plenty of nods to newcomers, with easy summaries of my work and its thrust (1 (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanityppt.pdf), 2 (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#summary), 3 (http://ahealedplanet.net/intro.htm)), but they are all only introductory, as any book would be. I have provided the people I seek plenty of “easy” introductions to my work, and trying to publish a book will put me at risk in ways that few people can comprehend. I have many professional authors in my circles, and am not interested in the book-publishing route, even though people constantly encourage me to, which means that they really do not understand what I am doing. The last thing that I am trying to do is write a bestseller. Being “popular” is not going to help what I am doing. Quite the contrary, it is the path of failure for what I am attempting. I need quality, not quantity.
What I need far more than “visibility” today is for somebody to step up and run with me, having a comprehensive conversation, and that is going to attract the people I seek. That has not really happened yet, but I never expected this to start quickly. The biggest event in the human journey (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5) will take time, perhaps longer than a lifetime such as mine, and I am OK with that. If nothing else, it is teaching me patience (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#reading). :)
About the first thing that I did after coming to terms with not writing a book was finally trying to get to the bottom of the Moon landings issue (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#apollo), and I spent a few months on it. Then it was helping Ralph (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page10?p=821&viewfull=1#post821) and Brian (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page10?p=822&viewfull=1#post822), and then 9/11 happened (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#wtc), and I knew at that moment that my efforts were going to be too little and too late, which began sending me to the dark phase of my midlife crisis (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#midlife), but a few more events propelled me there, and my former friend “helped.”
After 9/11, my great nation lost its collective sanity, and marked the end of the days on innocence on the Internet. Not only was the dot-com bubble on its way to collapsing (http://ahealedplanet.net/savings.htm#enron), but before 9/11, I fielded my fair share of attacks from the public over my work (often from my social circles, however, and even death threats were tossed around over my work), but they were relatively mild compared to what happened after 9/11. Essays such as The American Empire (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm) would not endear me to American flag wavers (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#flag), and I also received plenty of attacks over Dennis’s efforts. I had a recent event (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/94-My-last-posts-in-another-forum?p=639&viewfull=1#post639) that highlighted the issues that I have with people’s low general intelligence, even the so-called “smart.” I have not promoted anything that Dennis has done since my second stint with him (http://ahealedplanet.net/other.htm#sting), when I finally learned my lesson (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page9?p=806&viewfull=1#post806) about the utter futility of the businessman/inventor’s approach to free energy (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#approaches). I also had serious doubts about any mass movement effort to make free energy happen (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level10), and I finally saw the light with my NEM stint with Brian (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#nem), but that comes later. My writings about Dennis since 1997 have always been what I learned from my journey with Dennis, not what he has been up to since then, and I really have not been very interested. His approach is all that he knows, and it does not have a prayer, IMO. One hero (http://ahealedplanet.net/lessons.htm#howmany) is not going to save humanity from itself. But almost all of my critics since then have failed to understand the distinction, or they do, and are being dishonest in their irrational criticisms. Dennis made the greatest attempt in world history (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#run) to bring disruptive energy technology to market, and my account is one the few existing that is not outright disinformation. Dennis’s journey should be required study for anybody who is interested in bringing free energy to humanity.
During those years around 9/11, Mr. Skeptic stalked me on the Internet (http://ahealedplanet.net/purpose.htm#warning), heaving a disinformation bomb at anybody who promoted my work, which wrecked some of my cyber-relationships. But he was a minor nuisance compared to the avalanche of attacks that I received after 9/11. They were all from Americans, as I recall, and what was consistent was how increasingly irrational and vicious (http://ahealedplanet.net/critics.htm#troll) they were, and one came from a government official who threatened me, again trying to portray me as Dennis’s promoter. My work would have been far easier if Dennis had stopped trying in 1997, but he will not stop as long as he is breathing. However, he has been legally enjoined from engaging in the energy industry in the USA ever again (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=694872&viewfull=1#post694872), which greatly lessened the attention to my work that Dennis’s efforts drew, and thankfully, for me.
I am just portraying the situation around my former friend’s activities in 2002, which were criminal and despicable, which is coming. What people are capable of doing, from their wounded egos.
Best,
Wade

Hi:
During those more than two years when I did not hear from my former friend, my mother and I would talk on the phone periodically, and during one conversation she mentioned attending a social gathering of my friend’s family. During that gathering, my friend grilled my mother for an hour about me. It may have happened more than once during those years, and it was not good news. He could not let our former relationship go.
In early 2002, as my nation went insane (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#wtc), I was busily working on my essays. I finished a draft of my trucking essay (http://ahealedplanet.net/trucking.htm). The best critics of my work have been my friends and allies, and without their input, my writings would be far inferior to what they are today. Other critics (http://ahealedplanet.net/critics.htm) without fail have been irrational, uninformed, or dishonest, or all three. I learned the greatest lessons of my writing career via my editor’s red pen. For my trucking essay, I decided to send the draft around to all of the allies that I could, and looked through my emails from the public, seeing who might want to review that essay and give me feedback. One recipient was that email address of my former friend’s, with which he approached me by disguising his identity (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page10?p=825&viewfull=1#post825) when praising my work. By that time, the Internet had a billion users or so, so that email address, as far as I knew, could have been used by somebody in China, but I assumed that it was an American.
So, I sent out those emails, fishing for criticism, and received back one of the most bizarre emails ever from that friend’s “secret” email address. It was a diatribe, accusing me of megalomania, but it got highly personal in describing my life, including my cats. The email’s author concluded the attack by stating that he worked with the CIA, was Ralph McGehee (http://ahealedplanet.net/mcgehee.htm), even, and that they were watching my every move. The writer seemed mentally ill.
I have received all manner of attack over the years, but that one was in a special category and more than vaguely threatening. I considered contacting law enforcement for that one, for all the good it might do me. Over the next day, I thought about that attack. Something seemed familiar about it, and when I examined the email address, in it were three letters after a string of numbers. They were the initials of my former friend’s name, but scrambled.
I replied to what I was then sure was my friend’s email, stating his name, and letting him know that I was going to let his crime slide and not tell anybody, such as his parents, what he had done, but that I did not want to hear from him again, and I did not want him to grill my mother about my life. I further informed him that I was putting that email address on my spam filter, so that I would not hear from him again. I also informed him that I would become a public figure with my work, and that he was not to arrive on any scene that might form around me, on the Internet or in the real world. He had just surrendered that privilege.
There is a famous saying that when scoundrels’ crimes are discovered, their only defense is impudence, and my friend exemplified that strategy. If my friend was the least bit thoughtful, he would have stayed silent. I was only guessing, after all, about my assailant’s identity, although his scrambled initials were pretty good evidence, as was the content of his weird email. He could have just slunk away with nobody being the wiser, and I would have never been able to prove that he was the assailant. But he was nursing a big erection for me. At the time, he lived with his sister, who was more of a misfit than her brother was, who never had a romantic relationship, became a Christian fanatic, and I think was still a virgin, in her 40s. Their household likely resembled something from The Accidental Tourist (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Accidental_Tourist_(film)).
My former friend adopted the strategy of, “The best defense is good offense.” Using his sister’s email account, he removed all doubt about my assailant’s identity, going into another frontal attack on me, replete with four-letter words. I showed my wife his attacks, and she replied that they were the stuff of restraining orders. And he was not finished.
I called my mother after my former friend unmasked himself, to ask that she not volunteer information about me to my former friend. The last thing that I needed was another stalker. My mother replied that it had been quite a day, as she recently received a call from my former friend. He called her to complain that I had attacked him! My mother also said that as he reported my “attack” on him, in the background his sister was laughing riotously.
My former friend had passed far over the line into criminal activity, and his contacting my mother with his blatant lies was an attempt to damage my relationship with my mother. He was well aware of how fragile it was, and tried to hit me where it would hurt the most. Again, I had close family members do far worse, and they knew where they could try to hurt me the most. And none of their attacks were remotely justified. In every instance, they attacked me out of their wounded egos, which were related to my journey, such as my not respecting my friend’s “opinion (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page10?p=824&viewfull=1#post824)” on the righteous imperial violence that the USA inflicted on its targets. My “crime” was not agreeing with his “analyses” and avoiding such conversations with him.
If they wanted to come after me, that was their “right,” I suppose, although my friend committed a crime. But going after my relationship with my mother I will never forgive, and others who committed similar crimes have been permanently removed from my life. Not one of them ever apologized, but somehow justified their crimes as righteous deeds, as if I deserved even more. When I state that personal integrity is the world’s scarcest commodity (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#burn), these are merely some more examples. When I witnessed the many attempts to steal our companies (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#shocked), or had my moment of truth on the witness stand (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page5?p=681&viewfull=1#post681), none of that hurt nearly as much as what my family and friends did, and my former girlfriend’s attacks (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page3?p=622&viewfull=1#post622) were merely a gentle preview of what was ahead for me.
Call it stupidity, insanity, malevolence, or whatever, but my friend was likely oblivious to the risk that he was putting himself and those around him into. I had to threaten him into public silence, in order to protect him. If he began publicly campaigning against me, he would be putty in the hands of people such as Bill the BPA Hit Man, like Harlow was (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=600&viewfull=1#post600). Professionals such as Ken Hodgell (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/81-Vignettes-from-my-journey-and-how-I-learned-what-I-did-and-came-to-my-approach?p=206&viewfull=1#post206) would have effortlessly used him to get at me, and my friend would have wrecked lives around him as he wrecked his own, to get vengeance on me for not applauding his geopolitical “analyses.” Mr. Skeptic (http://ahealedplanet.net/dennis.htm#friends) would have happily used him as a disposable tool in his disinformation campaigns.
I was not terribly surprised when my friend publicly attacked me nearly a decade later, soon before I joined Avalon (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=694872&viewfull=1), and like the coward he is, he again tried to disguise his identity, that time by trying to implicate another childhood friend, but he is not smart enough to play that game. That time, I sent the documentation of his crimes to him, and let him know that if he wanted to become famous and not in a good way, to keep it up, and the documentation of his crimes would likely live on the Internet longer than he would. I think that he was finally cowed into silence, as his crimes would then become public knowledge.
I am going into the details of this situation more than usual, and don’t plan to do anything like it again. My intent is to drive home to gung-ho newcomers what the hazards of the free energy pursuit are like. What Mr. Deputy (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#deputy), Ken Hodgell, Bill the BPA Hit Man (http://ahealedplanet.net/hitman.htm), and other Establishment criminals did paled to insignificance next to what my family and friends did.
What I have recounted in this series of posts about my former friend (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page10?p=823&viewfull=1#post823) is actually a typical story amongst my fellow travelers. Attacks from those closest to me just came with the territory, and is why the social circle approach to free energy (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialcircle) does not have a prayer and never did.
Best,

Hi:
The other day, I looked to see what a pal was up to, and discovered that he died last year. He died the same age as my assistant did (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#cancer) a few years ago. Too young! This pal’s story deserves to be told. His name was Joe Starr (http://www.waheagle.com/story/2016/04/14/obituaries/joseph-starr/11297.html). He was a programmer who built systems that I designed at a high-tech company, which is one of the favorite parts of my career (http://ahealedplanet.net/trucking.htm#footnotes) that I don’t get to do often enough.
As we were talking systems one day, he unwittingly took the conversation into a Wade’s World direction, and we began to go down that rabbit hole a ways. When I told him about the offers to make us go away (1 (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#ten), 2 (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#offer)), like Ron Waugh did (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page3?p=623&viewfull=1#post623), he piped up with this own story. He had a friend who had a “bright idea” for some energy technology, and before he got very far along, he was approached and offered $2 million for his bright idea, sold out, and started a software company with the money. That was one of the lower amounts that I have heard of, but a solo inventor with a bright idea is a different animal than us in Boston, or Ventura. Running into those stories from corporate colleagues, not to mention my own adventures, made Greer’s $100 billion in quiet money story (http://ahealedplanet.net/hooked.htm#payoff) very understandable.
Joe and I had more than energy buyouts in common. Joe was very involved in the Amanda Knox (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amanda_Knox) case, as you can see here (http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2044902/Amanda-Knox-verdict-Supporters-Seattle-burst-applause-released.html). Joe had been a military policeman, and Amanda was in prison when Joe and I worked together. Joe told me of the irregularities of her treatment (such as hypothesis becoming fact in the Italian legal system), and I told him that I was familiar with innocent people being imprisoned (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#jail), and right here in the USA, not abroad. :)
The system that he inherited at my company was a mess, which was always poorly managed. When he understandably recommended that they perform a clean install of the software, and then reinstall the modifications the right way, my boss decided to go to another software package, and Joe thereby lost his job. I took Joe hiking, and wanted to do more with him, but his knee gave him problems. In those pictures of Joe, you can see that he could have stood to lose a few pounds, and my guess is that he died of a heart attack, which is the American way to go (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#lessons). I’ll miss Joe.

Wade

Hi:
My former friend’s attacks (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page10?p=823&viewfull=1#post823) were about the last straw for me regarding interacting with the public, perhaps paradoxically, as he certainly was not the “public.” The attacks from the public greatly escalated after 9/11 (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page10?p=826&viewfull=1#post826), and while they were unpleasant, my former friend’s attacks were what sealed it for me, and I had no public interaction for the next five years. But what happened a few months later was a much bigger event for me: Mr. Professor’s death (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#journey). His wrecked life and premature death was the worst part of my journey, by far. To emphasize that the story of my former friend’s attacks are typical in the free energy field, Mr. Professor received similar attacks from his family. I have written about it some before, with my most complete account here (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/81-Vignettes-from-my-journey-and-how-I-learned-what-I-did-and-came-to-my-approach/page3?p=239&viewfull=1#post239), and will add a bit more in this post. Mr. Professor grew up on a farm in North Dakota, of Norwegian ancestry, and his ancestors settled during the same wave of migration that brought my mother’s family to the USA, and they first came to Minnesota before moving to Bellingham (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bellingham,_Washington), in a typical migration route for Scandinavians in the late 19th century (after those pesky Indians were eliminated (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#steal2)).
Like Dennis and me, Mr. Professor was the firstborn, with that firstborn’s disease of being extremely capable and taking care of his siblings and family. Mr. Professor had three or four younger sisters. His father was an alcoholic, and Mr. Professor became the family patriarch while young. He was in the military and sent his paychecks home to support the family. He moved to California at about the same time that the Lakers did, in that great westward migration during the postwar boom (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#postwar). The year before we hit Ventura, Mr. Professor lived a nearly fairy tale existence, as the beloved college teacher who was a millionaire, a strapping physical specimen, and he surely shared the wealth with his family. I can’t get into all of what he went through in those days with me, but he went through several kinds of hell. When we stood up to the gangsters that run Ventura County, his family began suffering greatly via official action, and his family thought that it might have been vengeance by those dark pathers (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#serving), and it may have been. His family suffers to this day from it, and is why they want him to remain anonymous in my work, and I have honored their request, although I have posted a picture of him (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#adventures).
It got to where Mr. Professor was no longer able to help his family (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/81-Vignettes-from-my-journey-and-how-I-learned-what-I-did-and-came-to-my-approach/page3?p=243&viewfull=1#post243), which was the worst part for him. As was the case with my family, when he no longer helped support them, they turned on him. His mother didn’t, and I had the great fortune of witnessing how she felt about her son. Her sun rose and set on him, for good reason. But his mother suffered a debilitating stroke not long after Mr. Professor moved back home, and I visited her with him in 1994, and he was the most dutiful son imaginable, naturally.
Not long before he died, he told me that his sisters accused him of plundering the family’s wealth, which I knew was an outrageous lie, and they all disowned him. When I attended his funeral, none of his sisters attended. His death sent me tumbling into the dark phase of my midlife crisis, which did not begin to lift until more than four years later, when Dennis invited me to the White House (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=694872&viewfull=1#post694872). On my Bucket List road trip in 2013 (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/81-Vignettes-from-my-journey-and-how-I-learned-what-I-did-and-came-to-my-approach/page3?p=249&viewfull=1#post249), I visited Mr. Professor’s grave (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#grave), and he unexpectedly came through to me, letting me know how happy that he was to be involved with me, and since then, I think happier thoughts when I think of him.
It will now be back to the process of writing those essays that became the 2002 version of my site (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page9?p=808&viewfull=1#post808).

Hi:
My energy racket essay (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm) was written in 2001 or 2002. Brian O (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm) liked it, and I see it as an embryonic version of my big essay (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm). I wrote it before I encountered Bucky’s work (http://ahealedplanet.net/roots.htm#fuller) and my paradigm crystallized. When I look at that energy racket essay, I can see how I was groping toward that comprehensive perspective. A dozen years of study followed that energy racket essay and my Bucky revelations, which enabled me to write my big essay. After I drafted my big essay, I revised all of my site’s big essays, partly so that they aligned with my big essay. I have no further plans to update my site’s older essays. From here on out, I only plan to update my big essay, and the makeover that I will do, this year, if I am fortunate, will be the biggest one since I wrote it, and will likely be the biggest for years to come. Readers of my daily posts will have a pretty good idea of the revisions that I will make, which largely just expand and deepen the treatment of key subjects in the essay, nothing that will change its basic thrust.
When I compare my older essays to my big essay, it shows me how long my perspective was in coming. Developing a comprehensive perspective (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#developing) is not easy. It takes many years of experience, training, study, and the like. I regularly see people come to my work and think that they understand it after days, weeks, or months, but it takes far longer than that to really begin to understand, for anybody who has yet to play on the high road. Much of the learning is not so much digesting new and unusual information, but recognizing the limitations of our “educations” and learning how to toss out that garbage. We all get it, at varying levels of conditioning and indoctrination, from the TV news (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#deputy) to grade school classrooms (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#serra) to the print media (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#big) to university training to learning the “laws of physics (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#fe)” to the materialism (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#mystical1) that is our Epoch’s religion (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal4). There is a mountain of chaff on the fringes, too, and developing our tools of discernment is a key to navigating toward that comprehensive perspective.
One important theme in my upcoming essay update is how adaptive sociality is, and how nearly all activists have it exactly backwards, if they seek meaningful change. Sociality adapts to changing economic conditions, not the other way around. With Trump’s election, American “liberal” protestors (AKA “complainers”) have been reenergized, after being lulled to sleep by Obama. Sociality is pre-sentient behavior (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialreason) and is useless for initiating epochal change, and the introduction of free energy will be the biggest one in the human journey (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5), by far, as humanity becomes a Type 1 civilization (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#kardashev). Sociality is egocentric in nature, especially for humans, and is born of survival. I watched humanity’s social managers almost effortlessly defeat mass movement efforts (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level10), easily enticing people to destroy the efforts from within (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#allies), with a provocateur (http://ahealedplanet.net/hitman.htm) or two (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/81-Vignettes-from-my-journey-and-how-I-learned-what-I-did-and-came-to-my-approach?p=206&viewfull=1#post206) sprinkled into their midst. Only combined positive intention (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gcfocus) has a prayer of making a dent, and all members of the effort have to develop their own internal compasses, not be dependent on somebody like me.
I recently finished Chimpanzee Politics (https://www.amazon.com/Chimpanzee-Politics-Power-among-Apes/dp/0801886562), and it was more informative than I thought it might be, as I had already read some of de Waal’s books. What comes across clearly in Chimpanzee Politics, particularly if you read accounts of chimps in the wild, is how adaptive sociality is. In the wild, female chimps do not form any close social bonds, other than their offspring while they raise them. They forage largely alone with their young offspring. But once their food supply doubled when gorillas left the region and never returned, those isolated chimps took that economic windfall and radically reorganized their societies (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#bonobo1). Wild chimps without that windfall never did.
Similarly, in the captive chimp population that de Wall studied, females developed coalitions and when de Waal first began studying them, females dominated that captive colony; de Wall had them removed so that the males could rise to dominance, as they do in the wild. When they were afforded the luxury of three square meals a day without having to forage for it, female chimps almost immediately began moving in the direction of bonobo social organization.
All human sociality is conditioned by economic reality, from hunter-gatherers to peasants to factory and office workers. This is a key understanding that has so far eluded almost all “activists.” Reshuffling the deck of scarcity is no solution at all for the predicaments that humanity faces (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#spaceshipearth), but all activists are trapped in the political-economic structure of their societies, unable to see beyond them to the Epoch that awaits, if enough of us can wake up (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=309&viewfull=1#post309) and do the work (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=313&viewfull=1#post313).
When I look at my energy racket essay, what is still unique about it that my big essay does not cover? Some parts of the prehistory (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#prehistory) and early civilization (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#early) chapters go into some areas more than my big essay does. The rise of Europe chapter (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#europe) has its counterpart (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal35) in my big essay, but I think that the big essay shows how much more study went into it during the intervening years, as with those earlier chapters.
The next chapter (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#industrial), on the Industrial Revolution and the science of energy, is about when that essay gets into details that are not anywhere else on my site, and probably my favorite chapter of that essay is about science and the real world (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#real), and the mystical aspects of history’s greatest scientists.
The next chapter (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#glimpse), on my introduction to the energy issue via Mr. Mentor’s engine, clearly shows the genesis of my energy orientation, which began when I was 16. I don’t do it anywhere else on my site, so that essay is unique and important to my work, for that chapter if nothing else.
The next chapter (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#economics) was my first attempt to relate energy and economics, and the subsequent years of study is probably where my understanding grew the most. Today, it amazes me how many people have no idea whatsoever of the relationship between energy and economy. The last chapter of my big essay that I wrote (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#running) was in response to a pal who wanted me to write more on the relationship between the financial and real economy, as people around him had no idea how they were related. I consider that to be one of the greatest triumphs of economic indoctrination (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#economists), to make the key relationship invisible. The obsession of mainstream economics today is all about exchange (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#exchange), which will become meaningless in the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5).
The next chapter (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#case) is where I play historian to Dennis’s efforts, which I told in more detail in an ancillary essay (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm). For anybody who is the least bit serious about helping manifest the Fifth Epoch, Dennis’s story is required reading. Nobody has ever played at his level for as long, and my account is one of the only ones existing that is not disinformation, which has been duping the gullible (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/94-My-last-posts-in-another-forum) for many years.
Anybody who understands Dennis’s journey should have little trouble understanding why there is no alternative energy of significance on Earth today, which was the subject of that next chapter (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#why). Of course, writing about Dennis’s journey as a historian was not easy, with me being a key figure in his journey, and I had to work through many difficult emotions while writing it, as I do to this day. This thread of my lessons learned (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page9?p=808&viewfull=1) is my latest attempt to put it out there and then put it behind me, so that my pupils can learn vicariously. :)
That essay’s final chapter (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#greatest) is where I wax mystically and hint at the bigger picture about the energy issue, which I don’t do much of in my big essay, as I more played scientist and historian in that essay.
Writing this post took me back a ways, to my teenage days and my journey since then, and the process of writing this made me appreciate that essay more than I did before I began writing this post. It definitely has its place in my writings, even though parts of it can seem pretty dated when compared to my big essay. I don’t plan to revise it much.
Best,
Wade

Hi:
My work is consciously comprehensive, and one prominent aspect is that I don’t deny or demean the abilities of consciousness, and recognize materialism (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#mystical1) as a religion. The nature of consciousness is perhaps the most contentious issue on Earth, as the controversy arises from consciousness. :)
I can’t overemphasize that blind belief is the stuff of enslavement, whether it is nationalism, capitalism, organized religion, or materialism (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#dominant). I do not advocate that people believe anything, especially blindly. All of my free energy fellow travelers had a mystical orientation (http://ahealedplanet.net/journey.htm#mystical), and only Dennis was also overtly religious, which reflects his migrant farmworker childhood (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis?p=574&viewfull=1#post574). But none of them developed their mystical outlooks via religious indoctrination, a literature review, or received teaching, but by direct personal experience. There is no substitute for it, because when you have experience, you know, which has nothing to do with any beliefs. It amazes me how often people fail to understand that distinction, from all walks of life. I have been attacked for not being materialistic enough in my approach (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/94-My-last-posts-in-another-forum), and have been attacked for not being mystical enough, as people grind their particular axes.
A great virtue of the scientific approach (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#theories) is its quest for knowledge that can be universally demonstrated. It has its limitations, however, in its present incarnation, which the greatest scientists readily recognized (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#real). But the priest class of science (http://ahealedplanet.net/dennis.htm#friends) has labored mightily to turn the theories of science into a religion, and their leading practitioners I consider criminals (http://ahealedplanet.net/dennis.htm#criminal). Materialists call their beliefs assumptions, when they are honest enough to admit it. They are just assumptions that they prefer over others. That is no different from religious belief.
Just yesterday, I was reading an article in the latest Scientific American (“Pop goes the universe (https://www.cfa.harvard.edu/~loeb/sciam3.pdf)”) that dealt with recent satellite data that deals a possibly fatal blow to the cosmic inflation (cosmic%20inflation) model. The article brought up the entire issue of the Big Bang and its validity. As scientists find that their theories are not garnering empirical support, there is now a faction that argues for non-empirical science. It is essentially no different from empty religious musings, such as how many angels can dance on the head of a pin, but scientists are proposing it with a straight face. I have seen this in many areas of science, in which there is no data to support their theories (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog?p=320&viewfull=1#post320), but they think that one day there might be, but some are saying that there will never be any supporting data. Such musings cease to resemble science as we know it.
My mystical awakening happened during the same exercise (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#brown) that Brian had his in five years later (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#remote). If not for my mystical orientation, I would have never walked the path that I did, such as heeding that voice in my head (1 (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#voice), 2 (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#voice2)), when I asked for it (and getting angry when I didn’t (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#voice3)). My many years of digesting spiritual literature would have been a meaningless exercise without my mystical awakening. All of the essays on my site I tried to keep in a tight orbit around my experiences, to the extent that I could, and that goes for my spirituality essay (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm).
I have not had an NDE (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#nde) or OBE, but know plenty of people who have. With what I have experienced, those ideas are not much of a stretch. Why is it so unbelievable that our consciousness precedes and survives our physical bodies? The models of consciousness are just that, models, and I have had way too much experience that falsifies the materialistic models of consciousness.
Sadly, the Silva Method (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#silva) is a shadow of its former self, but for those who quest after it, getting mystical experiences is not hard to do, although younger souls with their outward focus (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#age3) may have a harder time of it. And once you have such an experience, you can see through the false faith of materialism.
That spirituality essay (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm) had the longest genesis, going back to my teenage years of Seth (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#seth), the Aquarian Gospel (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#aquarian), and the like. As I look back, I think that it was no accident that my mystical awakening happened the same year as my cultural awakening (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#europe) and my energy dreams (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#glimpse). I was being prepared for my adventures, like a lamb being led to slaughter. I can’t regret any of it, but that voice in my head has plenty of explaining to do.
In recent months, I have been reading a great deal of “other side” literature (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page7?p=801&viewfull=1#post801), and the gist of it is pretty clear: we all live forever, and physical reality is the hard school, in Creation’s basement. What also became clear was the disservice that virtually all religions laid on the afterlife experience, and I include materialism among them, and the more dogmatic, the greater the disservice. As Carl Sagan (http://ahealedplanet.net/dennis.htm#sagan) was dying, he violently rejected the idea that his consciousness might survive his body’s demise. Those who do that are setting themselves up for a difficult immediate afterlife, either going into a catatonic state, repeating a mantra that they don’t exist, or wandering near physical reality or the lower astral plane for what would be centuries in our perspective of time. Carl’s immediate afterlife was likely something like that, and I also think that Brian might have indeed tried to rescue his old friend (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#after). I am sure that they smoked a bowl or two at Cornell.
In the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5), science and technology will bear only a faint resemblance to today’s, and materialism will go the way of other extinct ideological systems, which will include all of today’s dominant ideologies (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#dominant). I know psychonauts who have had journeys like Michael Roads’s (http://ahealedplanet.net/visions.htm#roads), and some brought back earth-shaking inventions (which were suppressed or stolen, of course :) ). I first encountered Roads’s visit to a Fifth Epoch society (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?32399-A-Future-Earth&p=672748&viewfull=1#post672748) more than 20 years ago, about the time that I met Michael. They had scientific understandings that were orders of magnitude beyond today's, with attendant technologies that would seem magical to us (as what my pal saw (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#underground) seemed to be), and they achieved it through consciously choosing love (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#greatest), while those in that nightmare future (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?32399-A-Future-Earth&p=672115&viewfull=1#post672115) did not. That, in a nutshell, is what I am doing: trying to lay the groundwork for that heavenly future Earth to manifest (or something very like it), and those who help the most are going to live there in future incarnations, and I can’t do it alone. If we are fortunate, we may live to see humanity turn the corner instead of crash and burn (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#spaceshipearth), but it depends on what we do, and now.

Hi:
Over the past 15 years, my cover-up essay (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm) has often been my site’s most popular. I first published it in the spring of 2001. The genesis of that essay is two-fold: my journey with Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#hitting) and my relationship with Gary Wean (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#wean). I also had a close relative who was a spook (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#cia), who nearly tried to recruit me into the “business.” I have never been and never will be a conspiracist (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#conspiracism). Conspiracists see conspiracies as the primary explanatory framework for events, particularly ones with great importance. I witnessed organized suppression of Dennis’s efforts, especially in Seattle (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=594&viewfull=1#post594) and Ventura (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page4?p=651&viewfull=1#post651), and it happened once and for all with his last attempt in the USA (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=694872&viewfull=1#post694872) to change the USA’s energy paradigm. It did not matter if the sitting president’s energy advisor was one of Dennis’s fans, the people really running the show had the final say. The Rockefellers and Rothschilds were involved (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#rockefeller2), but levels above them also were. The highest councils on Earth pondered how to solve the problem that Dennis presented, and they have not forgotten about me, either. Dennis should not have survived what happened in Ventura, and handful of us saved him, at awesome cost to ourselves (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#journey).
Gary’s help was critical in my effort to rescue Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#it), and Gary is in my pantheon for that alone. Gary also suffered greatly at the hands of conspiratorial interests, nearly being murdered himself (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#hit), and dying in exile, destitute, in Oregon. During his amazing and horrifying journey, his friendship with Audie Murphy led to Gary’s listening to John Tower’s tale of Oswald’s involvement in the JFK hit (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#tower), a mere three weeks after the assassination. I met Gary a month after the darkest period of my life’s journey (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page5?p=681&viewfull=1#post681), so I had already been radicalized and was ready for his advice. I spent the next dozen years looking into the JFK assassination before I went public with my thoughts. For me, the lesson of the JFK hit (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page8?p=755&viewfull=1#post755) is how powerless American presidents really are (http://ahealedplanet.net/journey.htm#presidents). They can be murdered in broad daylight in front of hundreds of witnesses, and it all gets covered up, with the leader of the “investigation” being one of the prime suspects (http://educationforum.ipbhost.com/index.php?/topic/20494-bill-decker-and-john-tower/&do=findComment&comment=321167). Soon before he died, Brian O told me that retail politics was a dead end, and he would have known (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#udall). Murdering political figures, while serving up a “lone nut” scapegoat (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#wallace), became a sport for the USA’s spooks for a generation. I also know some of what sits in Godzilla’s Golden Hoard (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#underground), and Steven Greer also got a little peek once (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page8?p=742&viewfull=1#post742). In my circles, those shows were no big deal.
Around the same time that I began looking into the JFK hit, I also began looking into what might have been covered up about the Apollo Moon landings, and eventually got sucked into the controversy of whether the Moon landings were faked (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#apollo). They weren’t; they happened as advertised (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#apollo), although there may have been a cover-up of UFO encounters during those missions. The UFO (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#big) and free energy cover-ups are conjoined (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#spacemining) and comprise history’s greatest cover-up. According to Douglas Caddy’s testimony (http://educationforum.ipbhost.com/index.php?/topic/20494-bill-decker-and-john-tower/&do=findComment&comment=321167), there was an ET connection in JFK’s murder, too. Brian O’s life was shortened (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/73-Darren-Geffert-s-introductory-posts?p=130&viewfull=1#post130) because he snooped into the UFO issue (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#attack). But those activities are a minor aspect of how our world works. What is vastly more important is the low overall integrity (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#burn) and semi-sentient in-group behaviors (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ingroup) of the rest of humanity. The enemy is us. That was the primary lesson of my journey, not that there are conspiring “bad guys.”
One on hand, you have hyperventilating conspiracists who see all important events through a conspiratorial lens, and on the other you have people who are ideologically opposed (http://ahealedplanet.net/radleft.htm#religion) to the idea of conspiracies. Both are delusional mindsets, but what they have in common is thinking like victims (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#weakness), which is humanity’s specialty.
I noticed a dynamic around the JFK hit that I eventually generalized to all such situations (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#jfk). The 9/11 issue is the latest big one (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#sept11), and plenty about the official explanation does not add up, as usual. While I am far from certain of what really happened or will ever be officially revealed, just like I doubt that JFK’s murder will ever be definitively solved, I would not put it past the power structure to murder thousands of Americans as a stepping stone to murdering millions of people in Oil Country (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#invading). I don’t know what they would not dare. The dark path (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#serving) is dark indeed.
That entire area of study and investigation makes three-ring circuses seem dull, with all manner of bizarre theory, battles over minutia, a largely indifferent public, and a sizeable fraction that is titillated by the spectacle. To the American public’s credit, however, most think that Oswald was not a lone nut, and they see it as a symptom of how illegitimate the America retail political system is, and most Americans won’t participate in it, although I am not sure how noble such non-participation is. I think that if those people thought that they could make a dent, more would participate, but they know, on some level, how rigged the system is. I don’t blame them.
What happened to us in Ventura (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#mr) were just days at the office among black Americans. Only middle class Americans or the retail political class have a hard time believing what happened to us. To those who have been around the block a few times, what happened to us was “normal.”

Hi:
This post will be a continuation of a primary lesson that I learned, of what relatively few people can accomplish (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page7?p=718&viewfull=1#post718). What I don’t need these days is New Age (http://ahealedplanet.net/purpose.htm#newage)/conspiracist networking, bright ideas of how to enlist the help of the rich (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#rich) and powerful, those groups (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#beseeching1) who “care,” and the like. Almost nobody is going to help. Virtually all are trapped in their Epoch and cannot see any further than their immediate self-interest, even the supposedly “enlightened” ones.
When people do that, instead of doing the work to develop a comprehensive perspective (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir), so that they can learn the song to sing, they have given away their power, thinking that they are small, weak, and unable to make dent, as they try to enlist others to make a dent for them.
I am sympathetic to those who think that raising their awareness is not “doing something,” but it is. The power of raised consciousness can be an awesome thing. I know that it will work, and I know that almost nobody is willing or able to do the work, but I seek those needles (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialcircle), and what will attract them is that song, sung in chorus. I already have enough of a platform for it. My work is not about becoming popular, but finding the needles. It will be a long, slow process. I have lived through the rush to disaster enough times.

Hi:
The first essay that I wrote, after my second stint (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page9?p=803&viewfull=1#post803) with Dennis, was lost to computer failure (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/85-Computers-and-me?p=298&viewfull=1#post298). It dealt with the work of Julian Simon’s stable of scientists and scholars (http://ahealedplanet.net/simon.htm), most of whom had spectacular conflicts of interest. Fred Singer (http://ahealedplanet.net/simon.htm#singer) sold his soul to the hydrocarbon lobby long ago, and tried to get Brian O to sell his (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/90-Global-Warming-Peak-Oil-and-related-topics?p=463&viewfull=1#post463), too. Fred Stare (http://ahealedplanet.net/simon.htm#stare) was openly in the pay of the agribusiness companies whose products he defended, and his protégé, Elizabeth Whelan (http://ahealedplanet.net/simon.htm#whelan), took that strategy to even greater extremes. I wonder if nuclear energy cheerleader Bernard Cohen (http://ahealedplanet.net/simon.htm#nukes) will one day be exposed by declassified documents, as the fathers of fluoridation were (http://ahealedplanet.net/fluoride.htm#harold). Simon’s stable of scientists and scholars looks more like a rogues gallery than a distinguished group of scholarly and scientific humanitarians (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#philanthropy1).
After the devastation of losing months of work, I decided to rewrite the essay by focusing on merely one of several areas that I dove deeply on, which was on whaling, and I only briefly surveyed the other areas in Simon’s magnum opus. In his The State of Humanity, Simon extolled the virtues of the petroleum entrepreneurs (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#rockefeller1) who solved the “whale-oil crisis,” so I decided to look into whaling. What a sobering, horrifying, experience. The preindustrial phase of whaling (http://ahealedplanet.net/simon.htm#whaling) was dominated by the USA near the end, and Simon was right about one thing: there was a whale-oil crisis after the USA’s Civil War, and with the rise of petroleum (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#oilwell), the USA got out of whaling and never returned to that fray. The industrial phase of whaling (http://ahealedplanet.net/simon.htm#modern) was even grimmer, if that is possible. It was really just another standard resource-depletion scenario.
As I later studied for my big essay, and that stint really began in early 2003, when I read Bucky Fuller’s work (http://ahealedplanet.net/roots.htm#fuller), I repeatedly came upon humanity’s predilection of finding a way to exploit a new energy resource and then plundering it to exhaustion. The first one was Earth’s megafauna (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#australianmegafauna), which fueled humanity’s conquest of Earth (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#founderexit). The extinction of Earth’s easy meat is now thought to have spurred the next Epoch, which was based on the domestication of plants (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#natufian), and to a lesser extent, animals (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#goat). In each episode, there was an early Golden Age of plundering the new energy resource (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#goldenages), soon followed by increasing competition, as humanity quickly bred to the limits of the energy supply, just like any other animal. After peak energy extraction was reached, then the decline began, punctuated by a series of crises, and in preindustrial societies, those crises were all about food. The early days of plenty became days of famine, and while large animals were the primary energy supply of the Second Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal2), the Third Epoch’s primary energy supply was comprised of trees (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#treesenergy) and arable soils. Humanity quickly plundered both to exhaustion, and the earliest civilizations all collapsed (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#earlycivilizations) as their energy supplies ran out (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#unsustainable1).
Humans have been little more than energy windfall opportunists, plundering one energy resource to exhaustion, and then off to the next one. For the first such instance, Earth’s large animals and the fellow species (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#climateneanderthal) of Homo sapiens bore the brunt of humanity’s success. In the next one, the beginnings of agricultural revolutions saw expanding farmers drive hunter-gatherer men from the gene pool, while hunter-gatherer women mated with the “rich” farmers (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#maledna). At the tail-end of the Third Epoch, a rising Europe quickly conquered Earth (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#sailboat2) and industrialized during the process (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal4), as it learned to plunder Earth’s hydrocarbon deposits, beginning with coal (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#uk). Like its Second Epoch forebears, conquering Europeans began driving Second and Third Epoch humans to extinction, and most spectacularly in the Americas (http://ahealedplanet.net/columbus.htm#genocide) and Australia (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#tasmania), which were also the scenes of the most spectacular megafauna extinctions.
The Golden Age of American expansion (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#steal1) and genocide finally ended with the USA’s first energy crisis (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#hubbert), and American society has been in decline (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#industrialdecline) ever since. Rome did not fall in a day (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#peaceofrome), and the USA’s imperial trajectory (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#invading) is obvious to informed observers, and its attempts to dominate Hydrocarbon Country (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#ultimate) are doomed to failure and could well spark World War III, if they have not already (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#wwIII).
As I look back at it, those chapters on whaling were really my first energy-centric writings, although as I wrote it, I doubt that I would have described it that way. It was only much later, when I saw the pattern repeated, that I began to truly understand, and I have to credit the Peak Oilers (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#peakoil), led by Richard Heinberg (http://ahealedplanet.net/hooked.htm), with helping me see that bigger picture. Again, I can see that I was already on the trail of those understandings when I wrote my energy racket essay (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page10?p=830&viewfull=1#post830), such as those journey of life on Earth (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#prehistory) and early human journey (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#early) chapters. But encountering Uncle Bucky, and then the Peak Oilers, took my understanding to new levels, and was the genesis of the study that became my big essay.
A significant purpose of this series of lessons learned posts (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page10?p=830&viewfull=1), which I began writing last June, is to show that I did not just wake up one day with my awareness that led to writing my big essay and current approach to manifesting free energy (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir), but it was a long, slow process, of training, experience, and study, usually in iterative fashion, with each chapter building on the previous one, which led to where I am today. This has truly been a life’s work, but I am not done yet. :)

Hi:
Well, this is unusual in the American media: admitting that Israel has a nuclear arsenal (http://www.businessinsider.com/number-nuclear-weapons-us-russia-world-2017-1?r=UK&IR=T). The American government has never officially acknowledged Israel’s nuclear arsenal (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#sunny), partly because it would make all American aid given to Israel illegal, which is history’s biggest foreign aid program. The Israeli who first revealed it (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#vanunu) has been imprisoned/muzzled ever since. The USA’s going after nations such as Iran, for even the faintest notion that they might develop nuclear weapons, stinks to high heaven of hypocrisy. As one Israeli scholar said, Iran would be insane to not develop nuclear weapons, as that might be the only thing to stave off an American invasion.

Hi:
My Savings and Loan Scandal essay (http://ahealedplanet.net/savings.htm) had its genesis when that voice in my head (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#voice) suggested that I might like studying business. That voice could be called diabolically prescient. As I think about how events brought me to seeing my profession as worthless (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#getting), it paralleled my disillusionment with the business world during my days with Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=601&viewfull=1#post601), and the same month of my radicalization (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page5?p=681&viewfull=1#post681) was the same month when the S&L Scandal became full-blown (http://ahealedplanet.net/savings.htm#silverado). The month after that was my life’s worst, and I walked right into a company that the medical racket tried to destroy (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#experience), and the month after that, I met Gary Wean (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#wean), who helped me spring Dennis from jail. The month after that, I sacrificed my life (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#mortgage), at about the same time when I finally realized that the media can simply make it up as it goes (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page5?p=687&viewfull=1#post687). The month after that, Dennis walked out of jail, which seemed impossible when I sacrificed my life. We all realized that it was an act of divine intervention. As I look back, it is hard for even me to believe that it happened like it did. The roots of many themes of my work were born during those months.
As I recall, the Other Rackets essay (http://ahealedplanet.net/other.htm) was the last one that I wrote in that section of my site (other than perhaps the introductory essay, which took on the image of Mother Teresa (http://ahealedplanet.net/racket.htm#teresa), the Peace Corps (http://ahealedplanet.net/racket.htm#peace), and other “idealistic” efforts), which summarized several other rackets, showing how the racketeering model is universal. The game is serving one’s self while engaging in the charade of seeming to serve others. As Dennis said, the Big Boys serve humanity all right, as they eat a plateful of humanity each day. I added that John Perkins section (http://ahealedplanet.net/other.htm#neocolonialist) several years later, and I revised the banking chapter (http://ahealedplanet.net/other.htm#darker) when I finally realized that we were being set up (http://ahealedplanet.net/other.htm#sting) during my second stint with Dennis. Mr. Professor became a millionaire by supporting the efforts of A.L Williams (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arthur_L._Williams_Jr.), as he took on the life insurance racket (http://ahealedplanet.net/other.htm#life). Mr. Professor saw the parallels from the beginning between A.L Williams and Dennis, although Dennis was taking on something far more vast and sinister, which reached into the highest councils on Earth. If Williams had taken on something that big, he would have been kangarooed into prison, be dead by now, etc.
That S&L Scandal essay was prescient, as it predicted the scandals (http://ahealedplanet.net/savings.htm#enron) that came right after I published it, and I also predicted the meltdown that happened between 2007 and 2009. A larger one is almost certainly on its way (http://ahealedplanet.net/savings.htm#coming), as “the Everything Bubble (https://medium.com/@waltersjoe86/the-everything-bubble-86aef3dd2ff9#.kepxk3pcl)” pops, as the same game keeps being played over and over. You can’t drink yourself sober. Capitalism is inherently evil (http://ahealedplanet.net/other.htm#capitalism), as it turns a vice into a virtue (http://ahealedplanet.net/intro.htm#greed). Free energy will end capitalism, almost immediately. And like all other aspects of the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5), it will not end due to coercion, but because it will easily be seen as obsolete. It will be like comparing a comparing a campfire to the Sun. Of course, the only aspect of the Fifth Epoch that the global elite currently care about is how they will become obsolete (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#elitedisappear).
Seeing those scandals and disasters coming did not require psychic ability or rocket science intelligence, but just having one’s eyes open. I have read others like me who saw 2007-2009 coming, but did not know about the exact underlying mechanisms, although I also predicted the general mechanism (http://ahealedplanet.net/savings.htm#enron), in which the loan owners became divorced from any loan oversight. We did not need to, as we could see the symptoms. For me, it was seeing bumper stickers that advertised no-money-down homes, and seeing the general hysteria around real estate. I had seen that movie before. We did not understand the underlying dynamics to the extent that The Big Short (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Big_Short) guys did, but we knew the symptoms of a bubble, like that Joe Kennedy moment with the shoe shine boy (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_P._Kennedy_Sr.#1929_Wall_Street_Crash).
Another one is coming, and it will dwarf what happened in 2007-2009, as the world’s central banks all got in on the bubble-blowing by printing insane amounts of cash, having surreal negative interest rates, etc.
I am nearing the end of writing about the essays of my 2002 site, and then it will be to the NEM experience with Brian (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#nem), the study for my big essay, and further encounters with Brian and Dennis.
Best,

Hi:
Here is a little more on my fluoride essay (http://ahealedplanet.net/fluoride.htm). It was my first essay like it, in which I combined science, politics, and history. That addendum (http://ahealedplanet.net/fluoride.htm#prelude) was the introduction to the original essay, and some early readers influenced me to not lead with it, and it was good advice. But my big essay begins kind of similarly (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#toolset). It is more appropriate there, as the first half of the essay is almost pure science. I admit that I did not understand enzymes very well when I wrote that essay in 1998, but in the study for my big essay, I came to understand them much better (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#enzyme), and the way that fluoride ions wreck enzymes and DNA is evident to me today (they attack hydrogen bonds (http://fluoridealert.org/articles/fluoride-biochemistry/), among other havoc (http://charlie.ambra.unibo.it/didattica/docs/bioc-inq/Fluoride/Molecular%20mechanisms%20of%20fluoride%20toxicity.pdf) to enzymes and cellular processes). Fluorine ions are well-known enzyme poisons, used for that purpose in biological labs today. They really gum up the works (http://ffwireland.blogspot.com/2012/10/mechanism-of-fluoride-toxicity-on.html) in cells (and that article linked to in this sentence shows the medical racket at work, as an anonymous commenter tried to shame the site by linking to Quackwatch, which is run by a literal quack (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#barrett)). That a well-known poison and industrial waste became compulsory “medicine” is mind-boggling, and one of the best examples of how the medical racket works. My dentist (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page10?p=815&viewfull=1#post815) is one of the few brave ones to stand up to the barrage of lies. I wrote my fluoride essay years before going to him. My wife did first, influenced by my fluoride writings, I think. She also went to Dr. Brodie (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#brodie).
As I have written (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page10?p=815&viewfull=1#post815), I first heard about the problems with American drinking water from Paul Bragg. In Ralph Hovnanian’s quotation collage (http://ahealedplanet.net/mdaq.htm) were some great fluoridation quotes, such as this one by a U.S. Congressman (http://ahealedplanet.net/fluoride.htm#half). In my media studies, I subscribed (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#covert) to Covert Action Information Bulletin early on, and in the Fall 1992 edition, I read Joel Griffiths’s “Fluoride: Commie Plot or Capitalistic Ploy (http://fluoridealert.org/articles/griffiths/).” In 1997, Griffiths and Christopher Bryson self-published “Fluoride, Teeth and the Atom Bomb (http://fluoridealert.org/articles/wastenot414/)” on the Internet. The Christian Science Monitor commissioned the article, then refused to run it, so the authors gave it away to various websites. Those articles were the genesis of my fluoridation essay. I read John Yiamouyiannis’s classic work, Fluoride and the Aging Factor, and read several other books, with the most influential being Waldbott, Burgstahler, and McKinney's Fluoridation, The Great Dilemma. I also read pro-fluoridation works.
What became most striking were the conflicts of interest amongst fluoridation’s promoters. Virtually all of them worked for fluoride polluters. Before World War II, they were in the pay of aluminum refiners, either directly or indirectly, and during World War II, the Manhattan Project needed hydrogen fluoride to refine the uranium in its atom bombs, and that is when a highly aggressive makeover of fluoride began (http://ahealedplanet.net/fluoride.htm#harold), turning it from a deadly hazardous waste into a dental panacea. The pantheon of fluoridation’s pioneers is a rogues gallery of scoundrels in the pay of fluoride polluters (http://ahealedplanet.net/fluoride.htm#study), the worst of whom hid their conflicts of interest during the seminal years of political action that established fluoride as some kind of wonder drug. The worst conflicts only began to become evident with declassified documents. If they could turn hazardous waste into compulsory “medicine,” what couldn’t the medical racketeers do?
I published the first edition of my fluoride essay in 1998, under the title, “Fluoride: One Scary Tale!” By when I finished my site in 2002, I gave it the name it has today. In 2004, Christopher Bryson published his magnum opus (https://www.amazon.com/Fluoride-Deception-Christopher-Bryson/dp/1583227008), which I waited several years to see in print (I still see my review at Amazon). Bryson’s book will be the one to be reckoned with for a long time, and it is nice to finally see scientific papers on the great harm that the fluoride ion does to biology.
I see my fluoride essay as a prelude to my medical racket essay (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm).

Hi:
Of course, not all of my work is an intense study of the darkness. My visions essay (http://ahealedplanet.net/visions.htm) was the most optimistic part of my 2002 site, and can be seen as an embryonic version of the Fifth Epoch chapter (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5) of my big essay. I have been told, by those who should know, that there is nothing else like it on Earth. It is really the vision that has sustained my journey. I know that the technologies to turn Earth into a Star Trek (http://ahealedplanet.net/abund.htm#trek) civilization, also called Type 1 (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#kardashev), are already here (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#underground), but until enough us reach the requisite level of integrity (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#burn) and sentience (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#sentience1) and combine our efforts, it will remain out of reach, and we may well make Earth uninhabitable (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#spaceshipearth) instead, with Godzilla and friends (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc) leading the parade to oblivion, but he has several escape plans, and some are truly in outer space (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#mars). That heavenly Roads world (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?32399-A-Future-Earth&p=672748&viewfull=1#post672748) beckons, if enough people with the right stuff (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=308&viewfull=1#post308) can muster the effort.
Believe it or not, I tried to keep the editorializing in my 2002 site to a minimum, and reserved most of it for an ancillary essay (http://ahealedplanet.net/opinions.htm). I have not revised it much since I wrote it, and it stands as a testament to how I thought back then. I don’t think much differently today. I really see my perspective as before Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=601&viewfull=1#post601) and after Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page6?p=708&viewfull=1#post708). Everything since 1988 has really been minor, as far as my perspective went. All that I have learned since then has been built on the foundation of my radicalized perspective.
As I have stated plenty, much of my work is helping people shed their egocentric, in-group conditioning (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ingroup), otherwise, they can’t be much help for what I am doing, as they eagerly go down the paths of failure (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#approaches), unable to escape their social consciousness (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialreason). I am about what might work (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir), not the paths of disaster that cater to people’s egos.
When my work deals with the darkness, it is not about the darkness, but how people call the darkness the light, because it feeds them. This (http://ahealedplanet.net/visions.htm#can1) is the light. Once people can distinguish the darkness from the light, the path will be clear. It has to be based on love (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#greatest), not the many flavors of fear (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#coming), in which vices are turned into virtues (http://ahealedplanet.net/intro.htm#vices), mass murdering thieves become heroes (http://ahealedplanet.net/intro.htm#paradigms), etc.
When I published my site in 2002, I led it off with an introductory essay (http://ahealedplanet.net/intro.htm), and as I look back, it was before I encountered Uncle Bucky’s work (http://ahealedplanet.net/roots.htm#fuller), but I had the same message: Do we want heaven on Earth, or hell on Earth (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#sixth)? That essay has caused quite a bit of commotion over the years. I have watched my “peers’” heads explode only a few pages into it, such as this section (http://ahealedplanet.net/intro.htm#progress). Back then, I was more into writing in paradigmatic terms (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#introduction), which you can see here (http://ahealedplanet.net/intro.htm#blinded). I don’t do it as much today, but it is still a vitally important concept. Once people adopt their paradigms, they almost never see past them, because they feed them, and they are deathly afraid of giving them up. As a species, as we grow up, we reject lessons that we were all taught by age five (http://ahealedplanet.net/intro.htm#forgetting).
The last essay of my 2002 site that I will write about was my note to my critics essay (http://ahealedplanet.net/critics.htm). When I took on all comers, from 1996 to 2002, I saw all manner of reaction to my work. My best critics were my allies, as they helped make my work better. They often pulled no punches, and I appreciated it. My work would be much weaker without their help.
But most of my critics were not my allies, and they sought to tear my work apart, demean it, invalidate it, and the like. After more than 20 years on the Internet, I have yet to encounter even one of those critiques that was rational, informed, and honest. The dishonest ones, such as Mr. Skeptic (http://ahealedplanet.net/dennis.htm#friends), are a complete waste of time to interact with, except perhaps to gain an understanding of how they ply their dark trade.
The irrational ones can’t be reached, either, and they almost invariably fly off the handle as they defend their in-group ideologies (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ingroup), as they leave logic far behind. I have always said it, that I strongly doubt that a genius-level IQ is required to understand my message. I believe that almost anybody who is willing to lay aside their cherished ideologies and learn, can. Being uninformed is one of the easiest deficiencies to remedy, and naïveté is no crime (http://ahealedplanet.net/conun.htm#naive), either. The people that I respected the most in the free energy field all began their journeys naively. But again, people have to want to become informed, and have to want to become worldly. Camping out at the poisoned well of their indoctrination and conditioning is the path that the vast majority of humanity takes today, and they comprise The Great Herd that the social managers stampede this way and that, and often over the cliff (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#lemmings).
This post ends my discussion of the 2002 version of my site. I published it in September 2002, just as the drumbeat for invading Iraq (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#wtc) was reaching a deafening crescendo. It was all based on lies (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#invading), naturally, and the American people lapped it up. From early 2002 to the spring of 2003 just might have been the most emotionally agonizing chapter of my life, as I watched the USA become Nazi Germany, and almost none of my fellow Americans knew or cared. The Nazis swung at Nuremberg for what the USA did to Iraq (and beyond, such as Libya (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page6?p=715&viewfull=1#post715) and Syria (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page6?p=724&viewfull=1#post724)), called crimes against peace (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crime_against_peace#Nuremberg_Principles). But only losers face war crimes trials.
In the autumn of 2002, one of Bucky’s pupils called me a comprehensivist, and I did not know what he meant. He then directed me to some of Bucky’s work (http://ahealedplanet.net/roots.htm#fuller), and the lightbulb finally went on for me, as the paradigm that I had been groping toward for nearly my entire life suddenly became clear. That was a very clear line of demarcation in my work, and all of my writings since then have been more consciously comprehensive (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#developing). So, 2002 closed one chapter of my life, and 2003 began another, which is coming.
Best,
Wade

Hi:
Before I get to Bucky (http://ahealedplanet.net/roots.htm#fuller) and the next chapter of my journey, it is time once again to try to portray what I am doing. It is not easy to comprehend the next Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5) from here, and I am continually approached by people who really don’t understand what I am doing, generally because they drag along the baggage of this Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal4) and previous Epochs (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal1).
This series of posts that I began last June (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page6?p=708&viewfull=1) is intended, for those who are willing to try to understand, to portray how I got to where I am today. It can be very difficult to help others to understand your point of view, and the issue is far harder for me, as my experiences (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#adventures) are so far beyond what people typically encounter in their lives, and I am trying to help make the coming Epoch comprehensible, as a way to get there (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir). I have found that the only people who begin to understand have been familiar with my work for years, up to 20 years, and still, few such readers verge on truly understanding it. Being able to see through the many layers of conditioning that we are all subjected to, being brave enough to let that go, to be willing to try to see to the root of matters, is highly unusual in our world. As I have stated plenty, to be a candidate for what I am attempting, people have to have their hearts in the right place (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=308&viewfull=1#post308) and have had an awakening experience (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=309&viewfull=1#post309), and then be willing to do years of hard work. Nothing less will get there, nor should it. The usual methods are not going to work for this epochal undertaking.
I really don’t like comparing what I am doing to other efforts, but I am regularly approached by people who think that my effort is like Greer’s, or Gamble’s, or the Venus Project’s, or Keshe’s (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#messiah), or the latest New Age (http://ahealedplanet.net/purpose.htm#newage) or conspiracist (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#conspiracism) flavor of the day, or the latest political or social movement, some kind of protest, and so on. I get to work on my patience issues (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#reading) every day. :) My work is nothing like those other efforts. At the end of his life, Brian began to understand (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=918852&viewfull=1#post918852), and Dennis also immediately saw that I was doing something different.
Let’s take Greer’s effort, for instance. I have made it very clear that I can only respect what people like him do. Greer is likely too much of an alpha male to do it, but if 100 like him (http://ahealedplanet.net/conun.htm#heroes) could put aside their alpha male stuff and combine their efforts, they could make free energy happen. People around me who should know think that Greer has been compromised, quite possibly by using similar technologies to those that gave him and his team those strange and fatal cancers (http://ahealedplanet.net/journey.htm#adamiak). Few people can go through those kinds of meat grinders and come out anywhere close to intact, and Greer was damaged by it, seems to be so today, and perhaps with exotic “help” from Godzilla and friends. I was damaged, too, and I am not fit to do what Dennis, Brian, and Greer have done, and have never planned to. I am doing something very different. Those three men definitely walked the hero’s journey (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#messiah1), but a handful of heroes (http://ahealedplanet.net/lessons.htm#howmany) are not going to get it done, even with spear carriers like me helping out (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level10).
I recently wrote about watching Greer’s latest free energy video (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page6?p=729&viewfull=1#post729), and I had to stop watching, as it was so painful. Greer’s approach is inventor-centric, which I am all too familiar with (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#glimpse). Greer has cultivated relationships with the high and mighty, with the rich and famous, with various insiders in the retail political system, and he plays the über warrior (http://ahealedplanet.net/camelot.htm#warriors) who is going to lead the masses and scale the ramparts. None of that interests me, and I strongly doubt that those approaches have a prayer. Greer claims to know a great deal of inside information (and I have no doubt that he does), which he uses as a threat to Godzilla and friends (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc), of publicly releasing if he comes to an untimely demise. I doubt that I need to emphasize what an insanely dangerous game he is playing.
At the NEM conference (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#portland), which was held in Mallove’s memory, Greer said that Mallove learned the hard way that you need to have “countermeasures” in place if you are going to play the Washington D.C. activist game (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#activism). I don’t want to come within a million miles of any of that, and turned down an invitation to the White House (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=694872&viewfull=1#post694872). A great deal of Greer’s approach was beseeching the rich and powerful (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#beseeching1), which I have no interest in. There is very little of Greer’s approach that is similar to mine. I take very seriously Greer’s reported experiences in the milieu (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page8?p=742&viewfull=1#post742), but I only began taking them seriously when he and his Disclosure Project witnesses began describing the same things that my circle has encountered, which include:
Billionaires (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#oleary) are generally worse than worthless (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page4?p=647&viewfull=1#post647);
Those exotic technologies (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#underground), including free energy and antigravity, are very real;
Retail politicians are puppets and cowards;
Sitting American presidents (http://ahealedplanet.net/journey.htm#presidents) are quite a ways down the food chain of Earth’s power structure;
The billion-dollar bribe (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page5?p=668&viewfull=1#post668) is part of Godzilla’s bag of tricks (Greer was offered two billion);
For these kinds of efforts, your allies are more dangerous than your enemies (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#allies);
Open-sourcing any free energy technologies is the only route with a prayer – patents (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#patent) and proprietary technologies (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#proprietary) are the tools of fools;
Greer earned my respect for what he learned, but unlike Dennis, Greer has never come close to delivering disruptive energy technology to the public (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=594&viewfull=1#post594), or developed any kind of organization that had a chance, and Greer has many lessons ahead of him, if he ever gets that far. The last thing that I am going to do is demean his work, but I strongly doubt that his approach has a prayer, and even if it did, I am through with those games in this lifetime, and am doing something very different. It is big world, with more than seven billion of us. There is no need to try to pigeonhole what I am doing, equating it with efforts that are not similar to mine.
Of people still active today, Greer’s approach could be argued to be the closest to mine, but there is a Grand Canyon of difference between our approaches, and few seem willing or able to understand.
Just today, somebody brought up Thrive and the Venus Project, and I have written at length about them before. The Thrive (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=621892&viewfull=1#post621892) people have knowingly promoted libelous writings about Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#libel), and gave somebody close to me the virtual finger when asked about it. They don’t have 1% of the integrity (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#burn) needed to walk even five feet down the free energy path, and are going for the mass movement approach (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level10), which would not have a prayer, even if they had the right stuff.
Not long before he died, Brian invited the Venus Project’s founder to his home for dinner. Brian brought up free energy, and the Venus Project’s founder went into an apoplectic fit (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/81-Vignettes-from-my-journey-and-how-I-learned-what-I-did-and-came-to-my-approach/page2?p=235&viewfull=1#post235), in classic Level 3 (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level3) (or Level 5 (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level5)) fashion.
My work is nothing like Greer’s, Thrive’s, or the Venus Project’s (or Dennis’s or Brian’s, for that matter), although to free energy newcomers, they often see superficial similarities. They have years of hard work ahead of them before they will begin to understand, if they ever do. If I had to compare my work to any other body of work, the closest I think would be Brian’s, and if Brian was alive to have seen my big essay (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm), I think that he would have had a eureka moment (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eureka_effect).
Best,

Hi:
I couldn't help but agree with you, Wade, that Greer's heroic-centered approach is painful to see. It's painful in a sense that you just have a feeling that the thing is just going to go nowhere. :(
Heroes are products of scarcity-based epochs and I don't think heroism has a place in the next Epoch. Mind you, it's part of challenging myself to get off the idea that fame and being a celebrity is a good thing. But it's just part of our culture that we want to get a sense of recognition from people that we are someone important. It's all useless now. We can't afford the time to play hero and be celebs and stuff. I am reminded of Chris Gilbert's post addressing me about him reading One Piece. I understand all of that. I am currently deluded by the entire supernatural anime stuff of High School DxD, with the perverted high school student beating gods, devils and getting the girls and stuff.
The combined positive intention is definitely nothing like going straight at the Global Controllers and challenging them head on, as if we can beat them at their own game. We need to do some singing. I remember seeing a semblance of it back in March of 2015 in this site and that brought me here. I saw the exchanges and I felt like, wow, these are nice people to talk with. I remember Melinda being in the middle of it. I just hope that we can see something like that again.
Speaking of the Venus Project, I remember reading about it back in 2011 when I am still in my journey towards embracing radical leftist politics and Fresco does not want to admit that his project is basically a technocratic approach to anarcho-communism.
Well, I am way past those things now. I have to take credit of reading Wade's work and having that White Lady experience in college. Without those, I am definitely going to be vandalizing walls and be part of the Black Bloc of anarchists here in our place. I met an anarchist comrade back at my birthday when I was drinking with workmates back in 2013. He was the bar tender there. I am well-aware of Wade's work at that time and while I can commend that comrade's advocacy through his art and beautiful wall paintings, including his participation in Food Not Bombs campaign and teaching children in slums, I just can't go on that route anymore. I want to participate but I also have issues that my family may find out and I get in trouble with them. My family is quite conservative. Then we have Duterte as President so you'll never know if I may got shot by a death squad.
I am definitely rebellious and I just can feel the entire stress of seeing the world the way people on the radleft see it and find myself depressed. Add up the impact of this work and I can definitely get why I need grounding.
I have to be honest. I am not grounded now. I am on a brink in a sense but just very recently, I am getting back up again. For months, I am a hikikomori. I am a shut-in. I don't sleep well even if I sleep early mornings while being awake the entire midnight. I don't feel healthy. But now, I am just waiting when I am going to start on my new job. Hopefully those two companies I applied into give me the job offers within this week. :) I am confident in my interviews. I am also more emotionally centered of sorts right now and I just need to work more on these things.
But I feel pain. I feel desperation. I am not depressed. I know it, but I am going there. So, I need to stop.
Interestingly, I think the job will get me back on track. I felt it earlier as I walk around Manila and see all the people, all the noise, all the hassle. It's interesting. I am supposed to feel ok because I am just surfing all day at home including stuff that I shouldn't have explored to begin with. But I am not. Every time I apply and I don't get the job, I feel bad when there's a part of me that don't want to emerge back into the real world. I am ready to give up.
So I think I am OK, because I still want the outside world.
I think this is just the Generation X quarter-life crisis kicking in. I need to be careful on this.
I will be here. I've thought lately that interestingly, reading Wade's work is giving me comfort while I am waiting for my turn during job interviews or in the public transportation going home. Maybe it's just a sense of knowing that you are not alone. There's someone there that knows what you are feeling and talking about. Heck, he's been through a lot worse.
That's all since I am ready to go to bed. I am sleeping back at normal or close to it.
I am hanging in here, don't worry. :)
Thanks,
Serg.

The “Disruptive Technology” Meme
I have an issue with you (and anyone else-especially sentient beings ) using phrases such as “delivering ‘disruptive energy’ technology to the public”. The whole ‘disruptive technology’ meme is designed to allow the continued blockage of the delivery of new energy systems and other beneficial (for all life on and the planet itself!) inventions. It is past time to dump this ridiculous meme.
The phrase “The disruptive suppression of the delivery of new energy technologies” describes the Truth. By the time you, Greer, and I were watching the Jetsons on television, the technology to deliver a world like the Jetsons existed and should have been introduced, but was blocked by the “disruptive” meme. As you and Greer and many sentient humans know, there has been no need for the destruction of the earth, her peoples, and the countless plant and animal species thereon. Every technology needed to end that ruination exists on this planet right NOW-all suppressed and sequestered by the “disruptive” meme advanced by a tiny minority of the population.
The continual use of the “disruptive technologies” meme by the “Petronazi-Kleptocratic Racketeers”, as Greer says, or “Godzilla” as you say, has effectively blocked the advancement of humanity and all life on this planet for many, many generations. Tom Beardon was quoted as saying, “The Fools may blow it yet”. I personally wonder whether the “Fools” are sentient? Regardless, it is time to stop using the Fool’s “disruptive technology” meme and replace it with the very accurate descriptor of the true situation, “The ‘disruptive suppression’ of advanced technologies by Fools with questionable sentience”.

Hi JRS:
I am sorry to say but the entire term "disruptive technology" means what it says. Those technologies are truly disruptive of the entire effort to maintain the structure of the established political, social, cultural and economic order of the world run by these people called "petrodollar fascists" by Greer or Global Controllers. That is how they are disruptive.
That's the truth. They are disruptive. In fact, these technologies are not just merely disruptive. They are destructive. They are going to destroy the current world order as it looks now and that is why they are being suppressed by those who want the current world order to stay alive.
It doesn't change much if the term is to be changed into something better or more accurate as you may think. Of course, the "true situation" can be accurate. These disruptive technologies are being suppressed by fools with "questionable sentience". I don't even know that the term means. As Wade and Brian asked, are we even truly sentient as a species?
Semi-sentient can be the more generous to be applied to us.
The "disruptive technology" word is something I don't see as a mere meme. It's a fact and while this is depressing to acknowledge, that is the truth.
Obviously, I really don't want to speak for Wade, but I believe he knows that these disruptive technologies do exist now in hidden sites across the world where they are being used and experimented upon at most or being kept and hoarded at the least. There is a disruptive suppression of advanced technologies by the GCs, sure, but it doesn't change the fact that the advanced technologies that are being disruptively suppressed by your own words are disruptive themselves. They are disruptive technologies.
Changing the word is not going to give us FE. Well, if it is as easy as that, I am for it, but I don't see it.
Interestingly, we might be being blinded by the GCs here again but the advanced technologies are also disruptive not only for the Global Controllers but also for the rest of humanity as well.
You see, we have this current way of life that we are familiar and even comfortable with. And these technologies are going to disrupt our way of life. The way we eat, live in our homes...everything is going to change. Sure, it may be for the better but we are addicted to our current way of life.
Needles in haystacks right, Wade? That's why there's a recognition that this entire effort is not going to come from a grievance-based mass movement from where I came from but from combined positive intention by far fewer people than imagined.
Greer comes close in a way to that combined positive intention because we have this supposed spiritual background from the Vedic tradition and the Bahai religion but then again....
I am doubtful if the word is stopped to be used that it's going to change things.
That's all.
Thanks,
Serg.

Hi guys (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1131406&viewfull=1#post1131406):
Ah, language! :) I am going to use yesterday’s posts as an opportunity to visit the language issue. I am a professional, and if I reproduced the conversations that I have with my peers, they would be unintelligible to lay readers, as they would be full of jargon and strange concepts, citing arcane parts of the rules of accounting, which are constantly changing. When I wrote my big essay, I made an effort to use as little scientific jargon as possible. I am currently reading a great book on the last 65 million years of evolution in Europe, but it is for specialists, full of technical jargon, and I won’t be using it as a reference for my big essay.
Forty years ago, when I was reading Seth (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#seth), what Jane Roberts was doing was called “spiritual mediumship.” Several years later, as I began my career in LA (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=406928&viewfull=1#post406928), I heard the term “channeling,” and did not like it. Around the same time, the term New Age (http://ahealedplanet.net/purpose.htm#newage) began to appear, and today, that term is nearly an epithet, and I have encountered people who pronounce it to rhyme with sewage. I understand. But I use the term channeled (http://ahealedplanet.net/links.htm#channeled) today. I still don’t like it much, but it is the lingua franca of the phenomenon. I don’t read channeled work much anymore. It has its place, and it can be a wonderful place, but I have largely moved on from it.
In 1984, when Dennis was in Yakima, trying to sell his heat pump to apple processors (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=594&viewfull=1#post594), the local electric company sent out an engineer to help Dennis, as Dennis’s heat pump would increase electric company sales and “disrupt” the natural gas market. The term “disruptive innovation (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disruptive_innovation)” was not coined for another decade, and “disruptive technology” is a related term. I have worked in high tech since the 1990s, and in the high tech field, disruptive technology is a normal term, and I worked at “disruptive” companies. The city of my birth is getting wrecked today by the success of Amazon, which may be the most disruptive high tech company on Earth, putting brick-and-mortar stores out of business at a prodigious rate.
When Dennis told that electric company engineer that the big opportunity for his heat pump was selling to homeowners, as Dennis did on the East Coast, that engineer got a “deer in the headlights” look and fled, and Dennis did not begin to figure it out until the next year. Dennis’s heat pump (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#new), sold to homes, would disrupt the electric market in Washington, and the next year, Dennis gained intimate knowledge of organized suppression (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#seattle1). “Organized suppression,” like “Global Controllers (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc),” is a term that I coined to describe the situation. Amusingly, I am now associated with “Godzilla,” while Greer is associated with “petronazi” and other terms, but I first heard the term “Godzilla” from Greer, at our NEM conference in 2004 (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#portland). Dennis called them the “Big Boys,” and I primarily used that term until 2007, when I wrote this essay (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm), and the person that I wrote it for (who was stupefied into silence by the essay, which also brought Brian back into my life), thought that the “Big Boys” was too flippant, I coined the term “Global Controllers (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#gc)” just for that essay. So, it is funny and ironic that Godzilla is today seen as my term and not Greer’s. I use Godzilla for my informal writings. It is a fun term to use. :) On the Internet, Scott made a multimedia presentation out of one of our interviews, and when he put a cartoon image of Godzilla on the screen, as I mentioned Godzilla, I laughed.
So, Dennis was doing “disruptive innovation” long before the term was coined. He did it with his foam companies (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis?p=582&viewfull=1#post582) in the 1970s, too. My use of “disruptive technology” with Dennis’s efforts was very conscious and meaningful, and I don’t associate it with any “meme” out there, and I really don’t use it much in conjunction with the GCs. Although the GCs may well have been involved in the Seattle events (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=595&viewfull=1#post595) more than it might seem, I see the Seattle events more as the local electric industry’s protecting its turf from disruptive technology than it was some global effort. While Bill the BPA Hit Man (http://ahealedplanet.net/hitman.htm) was on Godzilla’s payroll somewhere along the line, it was not until 1987 that we received the first entreaty (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page3?p=623&viewfull=1#post623) that I now know to be from the GCs.
So, I have not really used “disruptive technology” to describe Godzilla’s games, but free energy would obviously be the most disruptive technology of all. But I don’t use that term to describe free energy. I call it an Epochal technology (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ideal), and “Epochal Event” is also a term that I coined while writing my big essay. Creating neologisms while writing about new events and concepts is normal. I don’t do it much, but on this leading edge, there is often not the language to neatly describe the ideas, players, and events. I have tried to be pretty conservative in coining terms.
Sentience is another charged term. I first heard Brian bring up the idea (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page10?p=822&viewfull=1#post822), back in 2001, and I have used it since. The issue of sentience is an aspect of the consciousness issue. Brian’s question of whether humanity is a sentient species is a fair one. Cetaceans are only beginning to wonder if humanity is a sentient species (http://ahealedplanet.net/simon.htm#sentience). I call humanity semi-sentient. The potential is there, but is rarely realized. In the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5), humanity will finally become a truly sentient species.
In finishing, maybe “disruptive technology” has become a “meme” in conspiracist circles, but I am not in that crowd (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#conspiracism). I really don’t want to be part of the free energy milieu, either, but people keep trying to drag me into it, like Dennis keeps wanting to drag me back into his efforts. The free energy field has been in a state of arrested development (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#arrested) since before I was born, and Greer’s inventor-centric efforts (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page6?p=729&viewfull=1#post729) only highlight its arrested development. I am trying to mount something that goes far beyond those notions. I am doing something very different (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page11?p=839&viewfull=1#post839), but people have great difficulty in understanding it. I constantly hear from Internet surfers and YouTube watchers who try to stick me in the same bag with Greer, Keshe (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#messiah), etc. Again, my work is closest to Brian’s, that I have seen. A major point of my big essay (and perhaps the primary one) is to reorient my readers to the energy issue, to help ground them and lead them away from the free energy field’s arrested development.
Hey Serg, glad that these posts give you some solace (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1131378&viewfull=1#post1131378).

Hi:
When that pupil of Bucky Fuller’s (http://ahealedplanet.net/roots.htm#fuller) told me that I was a comprehensivist, and I didn’t know what he meant, he recommended that I read some of Fuller’s work. I asked what summed up his message, and he recommended Utopia or Oblivion (https://www.amazon.com/Utopia-Oblivion-Prospects-Buckminster-Fuller/dp/3037781270), and also Grunch of Giants (http://www.bobbygill.co.uk/grunch-of-giants-by-r-buckminster-fuller-pdf/), which Bucky wrote at his life’s end, when he let it rip with observations that he felt that he could not make when younger. He echoed Uncle Noam (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#chomsky) in Grunch of Giants, exposing the criminal activities of those at the top (he called them “Great Pirates”).
With Grunch, I could tell that Bucky was worldly, escaping the naïveté that plagues academics. But Utopia was when the lightbulb went on for me. For the first time in my life, I encountered truly comprehensive writing, and it was revelatory. Written in the 1960s, much of that epic work is dated today, but the gist of it is timelier than ever. An update of his Utopia or oblivion idea is my Sixth Mass Extinction or Fifth Epochal Event (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#sixth).
The idea that humanity was facing Utopia or oblivion was certainly no news to me, with what I had been through in my journey, but what was revelatory about Utopia or Oblivion was its interdisciplinary nature. I had been doing it myself for many years, but did not know that it had a name or that somebody like Bucky had been doing it for a lifetime. For me, that was the revelation of Utopia or Oblivion. Bucky was the professional grandfather that I never knew I had. If he could see my big essay, his reaction would likely be something like, “That was what I was talking about!”
Ever since reading Utopia or Oblivion, my writings have been consciously comprehensive. Before that, I was a seat-of-the-britches comprehensivist, not quite understanding what I was doing. Utopia or Oblivion allowed me to see that I had created a holistic site, and that there really was a method to my madness. All of that disparate study (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page7?p=734&viewfull=1#post734), after I was radicalized, was related, and at one level, I knew that it was, but it was up to Uncle Bucky to articulate how it was related.
After Utopia or Oblivion, I quickly developed a framework so that my site made thematic sense. After I finished drafting my big essay in 2014, I went back to the essays of my 2002 site and revised them, to align with my big essay. I did not have to tweak them much at all. I only had to slightly reorient them, to align them with the message of my big essay. It was like I had all of pieces already built and largely assembled, and I only needed to make a few small tweaks, to align it with a vision that informed all of it.
I finished Utopia in February 2003, while the Bush junta (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#wtc) was preparing to invade Iraq (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#invading) and uttering an endless stream of lies to justify it, similar to Hitler’s rhetoric before he invaded Poland. So, I was in revelation while also being in agony. I look back to those days in fascination and grief, as far as my own journey went. On the eve of invading Iraq, I encountered the first work of my new interdisciplinary perspective when I read an article by Richard Heinberg, titled, “The US and Eurasia: Endgame for the Industrial Era?” I can’t find it on the Internet anymore to link to, but it was a prelude to his The Party’s Over (https://www.amazon.com/Partys-Over-Fate-Industrial-Societies/dp/0865715297), which came out the next month.
For the first time, I read an interdisciplinary analysis of the role of energy in geopolitics and economics. In “it’s a small world” fashion, Heinberg was Velikovsky’s (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#velikovsky) assistant earlier in his life, and I am pretty sure that his interdisciplinary approach arose from his Velikovsky days. Velikovsky was an interdisciplinary scholar, but used it in the service of literal interpretations of ancient texts, particularly the Old Testament, which was a dubious undertaking (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#tales).
Heinberg’s The Party’s Over was the first time that I had seen the Peak Oiler (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#peakoil) argument articulated, as well as the idea of energy’s role in collapsed civilizations (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#collapse). I was aware of those ideas, but had not seen them explicitly discussed like that. As I usually do, I riffled Heinberg’s sources, and was soon reading Tainter (http://ahealedplanet.net/hooked.htm#tainter), Catton (http://ahealedplanet.net/hooked.htm#tainter), Deffeyes (http://ahealedplanet.net/scarcity.htm#_edn1), and the like.
As I began to understand what Heinberg was writing about, the dust was settling on the USA’s invasion of Iraq. I vividly recall my relief when the initial invasion was completed (soon followed by Bush’s Mission Accomplished (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mission_Accomplished_speech) speech), and the USA was no longer dropping daisy cutters (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BLU-82) on Iraq. I was devastated by the great evil that my nation had just committed. The USA-inflicted death toll of ten million people or so in that region would have impressed Hitler. Just like Hitler’s death camps were a bit different from what came before, the USA’s methods were a little bit different from what came before, but the outcomes were the same: destroying nations and peoples in the name of greed and self-serving ideologies (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#dominant).
Part of Heinberg’s book both inspired and unsettled me. For the first time ever, I saw a prominent academic discuss free energy as a possible solution to our path to oblivion, as Heinberg mentioned some of the same situations and even people in my milieu, including who was almost certainly Sparky Sweet (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ideal). But as Heinberg discussed the free energy possibility, he put words in people’s mouths and put exclamation points (http://ahealedplanet.net/hooked.htm#heinberg) behind their “statements.” But Heinberg at least gave passing mention of free energy, and seemed willing to explore the issue. He was talking right down my alley, and I was willing to give him the benefit of the doubt. By May, I had digested those works noted above, and was ready to engage Heinberg, eager to help him explore those free energy situations that he wrote about. At the same time, Brian contacted me, to help him mount a mass movement effort that he called the New Energy Movement (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#nem). Brian knew Sparky well (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#sparky), and I was eager to introduce Heinberg to Brian and watch what happened. It could have been the beginning of something important.
As fate would have it, a New Age activist who was promoting my work at the time was affiliated with Heinberg, and I had her introduce us. I was friendly and eager, ready to introduce Heinberg to people who knew the subjects that he broached in depth. Brian was just one of many people whom I could have introduced Heinberg to, so that he could understand how the land lied. Heinberg also should have been able to understand the organized suppression (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#make), as he was onboard with the “inside job (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#sept11)” hypotheses of 9/11, putting a blurb in a book about it (http://ahealedplanet.net/hooked.htm#ruppert). I wrote that author, Michael Ruppert, around the same time as I was introduced to Heinberg, who also mentioned Peak Oil and free energy. I was in for a rude awakening.
A couple of years previously, I heard Brian describe how his ride as the Paul Revere of Free Energy went (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#reactions), as all that he received were crazed reactions of fear and denial, from the world’s leading scientists, academics, and “progressives,” and he began openly wondering if humanity was a sentient species (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#sentience). But Heinberg was at least mentioning free energy as a possibility, even if he seemed to semi-ridicule the idea.
Heinberg set me straight right away. He was not really interested in free energy after all. His interest was feigned. His message was about beating the drums of doom about running out of oil (http://ahealedplanet.net/hooked.htm#austerity), and how we needed to lose about 90% of humanity, and fast, to bring humanity’s population down to the carrying capacity of a post-industrial Earth. Those exclamation points were a clue, and he made it very clear during our first interaction. It was like he was impervious to the idea that free energy would make all of those doomsday scenarios vanish overnight. In his later works, he openly disdained the idea of free energy, and his grim vision helped drive Ruppert to commit suicide (http://ahealedplanet.net/hooked.htm#misinformation).
With my new comprehensive framework, what I saw was not so much Heinberg’s seeming dishonesty in feigning interest in free energy, but how people like him were addicted to their scarcity-based frameworks. I think that Heinberg felt, in the interest of scholarly integrity, that he had to at least mention the free energy issue, and even seem interested in it, but today, it looks like he was just covering his scholarly bases, to further justify his message of doom.
The next month, a handful of us founded the New Energy Movement (“NEM”), and we tried to make Brian visible. Brian published his Re-inheriting the Earth (https://www.amazon.com/Reinheriting-Earth-Awakening-Sustainable-Solutions/dp/0939040379/ref=sr_1_9?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1486134429&sr=1-9) that year, and you can see a blurb from me in the book. As we tried to get Brian access to “progressive” venues, as the founder of NEM, we were totally shut out, while those same venues treated Heinberg like a conquering hero, with his message of “Doom! Doom! Doom!” When I shopped for groceries, there was Heinberg as the cover story on a magazine at the check stand, and by that time, I had subscribed to Z Magazine for more than a decade. In the May 2004 edition of Z Magazine was an article titled, ““Plan War and the Hubbert Oil Curve, An interview with Richard Heinberg.” By that time, I wanted out of NEM, and that story will come soon, and that Z Magazine article inspired these two essays (1 (http://ahealedplanet.net/hooked.htm), 2 (http://ahealedplanet.net/scarcity.htm)).
But I have to give credit to Heinberg for introducing me to several important subjects, however addicted to scarcity that he was. So began my years of being a conscious comprehensivist.
Best,
Wade

Hi:
Before I get to the NEM experience (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#nem), I need to review several dynamics surrounding those days. Probably most importantly, I was in the throes of my midlife crisis (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#midlife), which began in 2000 and entered its dark phase after 9/11 (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#sept11), the attacks from the public (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page10?p=829&viewfull=1#post829), capped off with my former friend’s criminal attack (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page10?p=823&viewfull=1#post823), and most importantly, Mr. Professor’s death (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#journey). I had waited for my midlife crisis to arrive for years, expecting it to be some athletic or Casanova midlife crisis, which I had witnessed wreck bodies and lives, and I was prepared to show it the door in a few minutes, confident that I was not susceptible to those kinds of crises. I learned those lessons long ago. But mine did not knock on the front door; it snuck in through the backdoor, making itself at home for a year, before I realized that it was there. Midlife crises are made to order, and mine was oriented around the idea that my life’s work was an exercise in futility, and instead of helping usher in the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5), I would have a front-row seat to humanity’s and Earth’s destruction (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#spaceshipearth), with my insane and evil nation leading the parade to oblivion, with a little help from Godzilla (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc) and friends.
More than anything else, dealing with my midlife crisis should have disqualified me from getting involved with Brian, but I had to honor his request. For the previous several years, my studies and writings were paid for by my work stints, my wife’s working, and maxing out our credit cards. When I went bankrupt in 1988 (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#bankrupt), I had almost no personal debt, but was sacked with company expenses as we were wiped out. Going bankrupt was the easiest part of that year. Fifteen years later, there I was, digging into $80K of credit card debt to finance the creation of my website. From 2002-2003 was the grim aftermath of the dot-com meltdown (http://ahealedplanet.net/savings.htm#enron), and jobs were scarce in Seattle. It was looking like I might end up going bankrupt again. That pressure was there. The agony of Iraq’s invasion (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#invading), and Heinberg’s obtuseness (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page11?p=841&viewfull=1#post841), was just part of my scenery in those days.
As I wrote, a New Age activist (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page11?p=841&viewfull=1#post841) was promoting my work in those days. She soon received a disinformation bomb from Mr. Skeptic (http://ahealedplanet.net/dennis.htm#friends), as he stalked me wherever I appeared on the Internet. While I no longer had my email address publicly available, some events of those days inspired me to join some forums where I had seen my work discussed. Almost invariably, Mr. Skeptic would show up to attack me, usually within a day or two (http://ahealedplanet.net/purpose.htm#warning), but more importantly, every time that I joined a forum, I was attacked by the forum’s members, often with at least one self-appointed troll to harry me. But it was not all bad.
Through that New Age activist, a man on a visionary mission visited me at my home. He had devoted years of his life to interviewing visionaries across the planet. I gave my first interview ever to him, as he made a video (it never aired anyplace). That was in May or June 2003, right around when Brian asked me to help him found NEM. I introduced Brian to that interviewer and they became close friends. For some of the last videos that Brian ever made (such as this one (https://vimeo.com/15615837)), that interviewer was the one taping them. I have hosted that interviewer a couple more times, and even took him to James’s Gilliland’s Ranch (the 2006 visit (http://ahealedplanet.net/ufo.htm#visit2006)), where he interviewed James.
I once asked that interviewer what all of us visionaries had in common, and other than the obvious, our hearts being in the right place (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=308&viewfull=1#post308), we all had high energy and high intelligence.
That interviewer also asked me to join a free energy forum. I thought that his request meant that he knew the forum’s owners, but I think that I was mistaken. It was a forum of engineers, scientists, and inventors. It was dominated by an “alpha engineer,” and as soon as I joined, relating my background, that alpha engineer simply called me a liar (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#naive). When I replied that if he wanted to call me a liar, he could, but that I had put up plenty of evidence to support my “lies,” and that he had better do some homework to establish his credibility before calling me a liar. He then dismissed me as a “conspiracy theorist,” which is an irrational epithet that has been hurled my way many of times. Documented experiences are not theories, and it is somewhat amusing that such “smart” people were unable or unwilling to make the distinction.
That forum’s owner evidenced a little more open-mindedness, and said that he would read some of my work and get back to me with his assessment, and a couple of weeks later, I heard from him. He informed me that combining political information with my free energy work was inappropriate, which demonstrated that he completely missed the point of my work. The political-economic aspects of the free energy milieu are why we don’t have free energy today. Free energy scientists and inventors are a dime a dozen, and that forum clearly demonstrated the naïveté that Fuller wrote about (http://ahealedplanet.net/roots.htm#naive). I have encountered that naïveté innumerable times during my journey, and it manifests in many ways. Levels 6 (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level6) and 7 (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level7) are populated by the highly naïve, and most free energy inventors and scientists reside in those levels. Another aspect of their naïveté is failing to understand the distinction between why a free energy inventor might be offered a few million dollars for his gizmo (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page3?p=623&viewfull=1#post623), which would then be shelved, and why Dennis was offered a billion dollars (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#offer). They can’t distinguish a tinkerer in his garage from a man leading a national-level effort. I have been challenged repeatedly on Dennis’s billion dollar bribe, by free energy newcomers who have absolutely no idea now the world really works. When Greer (http://ahealedplanet.net/journey.htm#greer) was offered two billion dollars to go away in the next decade, I figured that that was just inflation at work. :)
What Greer and Dennis were doing was orders of magnitude beyond a tinkerer in his garage, but few free energy scientists, engineers, inventors, and newcomers seemed able to comprehend it. As I recall, that forum of naïve scientists, engineers, and inventors was one of the last forums that I joined in that phase of my journey. Mr. Skeptic seemed very calculating about where he would show up. If I was harried by trolls (http://ahealedplanet.net/critics.htm#troll), then he could just sit back and watch, eating popcorn, but when I was being taken seriously, he would arrive with his disinformation bomb. Forums come and go, and other than this instance (http://ahealedplanet.net/purpose.htm#warning), which was when he was being polite, I doubt that his attacks have survived on the Internet. Several years later, when I began to engage the public in forums where I saw my work being discussed, Mr. Skeptic showed up again, and he likely had something to do with an entire forum section devoted to my work being unceremoniously erased by the forum’s owner. When that happened, I decided that I would not engage the public again and would eventually mount my own forum, but then Bill (http://ahealedplanet.net/camelot.htm) began Avalon, after learning the same forums lessons that I did, and I have been there (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet) for six years and counting. I had another bad experience with another forum that I was invited into, and when an administrator started in on me (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/94-My-last-posts-in-another-forum), I quit, and doubt that I will ever join another forum, as cowards, trolls, and idiots dominate them. Bill and friends have kept them at bay at Avalon, and I appreciate it.
I will now come to an experience that had a bearing on my NEM tenure. I have written about it before (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/81-Vignettes-from-my-journey-and-how-I-learned-what-I-did-and-came-to-my-approach?p=200&viewfull=1#post200), so don’t need to get into the details again of the free energy scientist who libeled Dennis in 2001. I had seen plenty of that over the years, and ignored it. In the spring of 2003, another New Age activist invited me into his effort that promoted that libelous essay (which I describe at that account of the libel (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/81-Vignettes-from-my-journey-and-how-I-learned-what-I-did-and-came-to-my-approach?p=200&viewfull=1#post200)), and I informed him that I could not join an effort that libeled Dennis. It not only flew over his head, but he actually did that free energy scientist one better, and identified Dennis when that scientist “cleverly” did not mention Dennis’s name while attacking him, but everybody with a clue knew whom he was writing about. I have seen that New Age activist lionized at places such as Avalon, but he is just one more disinformation specialist, of the low-integrity free-lance kind, likely not on anybody’s payroll.
As I have stated plenty, it would be more psychologically interesting if Mr. Skeptic free-lanced during his vendetta against Dennis, but I think that he was likely being paid for his efforts (http://ahealedplanet.net/other.htm#skeptic). The free-lance liars and criminals, and Dennis’s “allies (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#allies),” have done far more damage than those being paid for their evil efforts, such as Bill (http://ahealedplanet.net/hitman.htm), Ken (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/81-Vignettes-from-my-journey-and-how-I-learned-what-I-did-and-came-to-my-approach?p=206&viewfull=1#post206), and Mr. Deputy (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#deputy) were. Those events are just more evidence to illustrate my life’s primary lesson (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#burn). Those who focus on the “bad guys” (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gcfocus) don’t yet understand. The enemy is us, and always has been.
In the spring of 2001, Dennis once again was barnstorming the nation, and came through Washington. I went to his Tacoma show. Dennis literally rerouted his caravan of demonstration equipment around Washington State, not bringing it to Washington, concerned that the authorities would simply confiscate it. Ms. Pinch Hitter (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#pinch) would show up to Dennis’s appearances in Washington, spewing her lies (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page5?p=685&viewfull=1#post685), and once disrupted one of Dennis’s gatherings, Bill-style (http://ahealedplanet.net/hitman.htm#global), to serve legal papers on him, and Dennis had to protect her from the gathering. In 2013, Dennis showed me one of his free energy prototypes, which began showing the ZPE effect at about 2,000 RPMs, which is typical (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ideal).
At Dennis’s 2001 Tacoma show, a news camera crew arrived uninvited, and while they did not disrupt the meeting, during the Q&A session afterward, the reporter and her cameraman got right in Dennis’s face, and refused Dennis’s request that they leave. They were acting like the innumerable media a**holes that I had encountered over the years, and after five minutes or so of that standoff, Dennis actually had a wrestling match with the cameraman, as they fell to the ground. Dennis let them get the best of him, and it was agonizing to witness. Their jobs are to be a**holes, criminally libeling Dennis and the like, and I fled the show when that happened, not hanging out with Dennis and crew afterward (and his oldest daughter was on that tour, and I am Uncle Wade to her (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/81-Vignettes-from-my-journey-and-how-I-learned-what-I-did-and-came-to-my-approach/page3?p=249&viewfull=1#post249)), and wrote to Dennis the next day, informing him that he needed to master himself better to do those tours, as their goading him into that wrestling match meant that they “won.” Dennis would later write that that tour was his “anger and bitterness tour,” and was a failure because Dennis let the a**holes get to him (he spent part of that tour in jail, as the officials banned him from coming to their state and arrested him at the border). That was the last time that he let them get to him, but I had no contact with Dennis from then until he arrived my home in 2006, unannounced, to invite me to the White House (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#midlife).
That is all some background of my NEM stint with Brian (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#nem). Looking back, I should have declined Brian’s kind invitation, but that stint was very educational, and in its aftermath, I decided to never again get involved in any kind of effort that was not mine. I had enough of spear carrying (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#adventures), but was not quite through carrying Brian’s (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#intro).

Hi:
I stumbled upon an artifact of the DOE hearings (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page9?p=808&viewfull=1#post808) that Dennis and I spoke at, here (https://books.google.com/books?id=Vf8wAQAAMAAJ&pg=SA1-PA14&lpg=SA1-PA14&dq=wade+frazier&source=bl&ots=cEu5JVd5qR&sig=F27FmLIs6Hd7ySTcWndrShycv-8&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjw-Yv1r_fRAhUG3WMKHYD2Bz84FBDoAQhGMAk#v=onepage&q=wade%20frazier&f=false). The man who ran the hearings (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#yull) gave me a moment of clarity as to the real game being played. In an interview with Scott, somewhere on the Internet (this interview (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jU8iC3G30EA), perhaps), I mentioned them calling Dennis weeks later, to “check the box,” and at that link is the result of the call: once the peer-reviewed scientific literature gives credence to Brown’s Gas and elemental transmutation, then the DOE will consider it. How typical. What a waste of time approaching them, other than to learn how rigged the game is. I did it with Brian a dozen years later (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#intro), too, and what a waste. All that it shows is that we beat our heads against that door.
Best,

Hi:
Brian and I never discussed it, but the events of the spring of 2003 surely were an impetus to his founding NEM (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#nem). Bush’s Mission Accomplished (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mission_Accomplished_speech) stunt was something right out of the Nuremburg rallies. All over the oil, but nobody could admit it (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#invading), even to this day (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#ultimate).
We met at Brian’s house in early June 2003, on the shores of the Yuba River (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yuba_River), about a half-hour from my wife’s parents’ house, and where I hosted Brian a couple of years previously (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#governor). Brian tried to convince me to move to California, to be close to him, but not again in this lifetime (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#mr). As I look back, we were a motley crew (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/89-Free-energy-psychic-abilities-and-the-skeptics-and-debunkers?p=429&viewfull=1#post429). Alden Bryant (http://www.newenergymovement.org/founders.php) was the hippest environmentalist that I ever met, but he was in his 80s then. I doubt that Alden is still alive. Alden (http://www.radio4all.net/index.php/program/10463) publicly discussed Adam Trombly’s (http://ahealedplanet.net/radio.htm#trombly) adventures, to give you an idea how hip he was. But Alden brought along an assistant who was not what Brian was looking for, and he ejected her from the effort. Alden’s assistant after that was the cameraman who stole all of that equipment (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page4?p=662&viewfull=1#post662) when we were wiped out in Ventura. The free energy milieu is a small world. I was amazed when Alden told me who was helping him, and he defended that cameraman. Back during my second stint with Dennis, I heard from a volunteer about how that cameraman showed up to a talk that he gave, and challenged him about Dennis. Talk about chutzpa.
Joel, who became the president after the mutiny against Brian, was a good man but naïve (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/89-Free-energy-psychic-abilities-and-the-skeptics-and-debunkers?p=429&viewfull=1#post429). Alden brought along a pal, but who was in his 90s and going demented. He did not even recognize me at the NEM conference (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#portland) the next year. Another member wore a mystical costume, and later joined the mutiny against Brian.
The next day, Brian invited me over to hang out, and we swam in the Yuba River. It was one of our most intimate times together, and in discussing how not even our families supported us in our free energy efforts, Brian told me about a brother who was a Rush Limbaugh fan, with a sadness in his voice. I believe that we discussed Sparky (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#sparky) one last time, and Brian said that Sparky was really tired at his life’s end. Going into hiding at 85 years old, from Godzilla’s death threats, was not what Sparky was anticipating when he tried to make something happen with his gizmo (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ideal).
Other than Alden, I was not impressed with the cast of characters, but Brian asked me to carry his spears for this, and I could not refuse him. The month after our first board meeting, I finally found work and resumed my career, working for one of the few dot-com companies that survived the meltdown (http://ahealedplanet.net/savings.htm#enron), and I worked there for the next ten years, for the longest stint of my career, by far. They treated me very well, and I began to dig out of debt (which took three years). The previous six years were largely stressless, at least career-wise, as I worked on my site. It still took its toll (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page9?p=809&viewfull=1#post809), but it was relatively stressless.
Over the next year, I gave NEM about $17K, not including a lot of time, as I worked 60-70 hour weeks at my day job and did NEM on the side. I dropped out of several kinds of activities that I did in those previous six years. I simply did not have the time or energy for it. When I resumed my career, for the first time, really, I became an early riser. I knew that I would not be able to operate at a high level if I had to wake up to an alarm clock, as I had done in my professional life (as all of my roommates were night owls). I have pretty much not woken up to an alarm clock ever since. If I have my way, I am in bed by 9:00 PM, which was the extension of my bedtime when I was eight, to watch Star Trek when my father worked at NASA (http://ahealedplanet.net/paths.htm#oleary). It is kind of funny how that circle completed. This morning, I was awake at 4:30, which has been typical lately. Sometimes, I am not awake until 6:00 AM, but around 5:00 has been my usual time to awaken, since 2003. I plan to have that sleep regimen (with daily naps, too) for the rest of my life.
During the Christmas break of 2003, Brian hosted the second board meeting at his home. I stayed with my wife at her parents’ house, as we turned it into our annual holiday visit, too. I had met Mark during that 2001 misadventure with Brian in Sacramento (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#governor), and at that meeting, Mark remarked on our nearly being run out of town that day, and how bizarre it was. That incident became a famous event. It was at that meeting that I heard Mark tell an abbreviated version of his story of his baptism by fire in the free energy field (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=811647&viewfull=1#post811647). Jeane Manning joined up at that meeting, and later wrote about it publicly, like the journalist that she is. It was a pretty large gathering, of twenty people or so. I was interacting with some of the “names” in the free energy field, in a way that I had not done in years.
When I saw Eugene Mallove mention the very same technologies that we were pursuing in Ventura (http://ahealedplanet.net/hooked.htm#mallove), and wrote it might have a chance, I had Brian introduce me to Gene. We exchanged some email that winter, and I sent him a package of documentation of what we were pursuing, and he was going to get back to me in the spring, as he was a very busy man. He was a pretty yang kind of guy, calling it as he saw it and pulling no punches. His reaction to the billion dollar offer that Dennis received (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#offer) was that he had not heard of one so high (but Stan Meyer reported one (http://ahealedplanet.net/risk.htm#meyer), and Greer reported a two billion dollar offer, so I wondered how hip Gene really was). Like so many in the field (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#arrested), Mallove was oriented around scientists and inventors, and really did not understand the milieu that we played in. I don’t want to call Mallove naïve, but he had definitely not played in the Big Time, in which he was bringing disruptive technology to market, like Dennis did. He was kind of stuck at the academic and vanilla political level, stirring things up in Washington D.C. (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#activism), seeking the free energy inventor who “had it!”, and the like. Gene had his own magazine, which still exists.
Let there be no doubt: there were some caring and accomplished people whom I encountered during those days, but other than Mark and me, nobody else had really been through the free energy meat grinder. Brian nearly died a decade before (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#attack), courtesy of the American military, when he snooped into UFOs, and the incident shortened his life (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/73-Darren-Geffert-s-introductory-posts?p=130&viewfull=1#post130), so Brian seemed fairly worldly. But there was definitely a mass movement mentality (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level10) amongst the NEM crowd that I encountered, and even if it had some of Alden’s Berkeley “radicalism” in it, I did not get the sense that many of the players really appreciated the challenge of what we were taking on.
Over the next several months, it was kind of strange for me. On one hand, Joel and I were the corporate guys, with well-paying jobs. Nobody else did, as they all lived from hand to mouth. Alden was making out his credit cards, in his 80s, which was obviously going to be a path to financial oblivion unless some miracle happened. Joel and I put together a business plan at Brian’s request, but as we did it, Brian seemed to get cold feet. Brian was looking for altruistic rich people, which I doubt exist (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#rich). It was kind of like when I became Dennis’s partner (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page3?p=614&viewfull=1#post614): I was not sure what the plan was, but wanted to help. I honestly rode in the saddle with them, carried their spears and kept my eyes open, but I gradually began to have doubts about our approach. If the people that I saw were the best that Brian was able to round up, we were in trouble.
That coming spring, it became evident.
Best,
Wade

Hi Wade and friends,
The central message is that energy is the fundamental foundation of any civilization. When a society reaches the limits of its exploitation of a certain form of energy, it begins to experience upheaval and turmoil. At that point a society either turns to a new source of energy, if one is available, like England tapping coal for power, or it must expand to exploit farther and less easily exploitable sources of existing energy, as countless empires of warrior races did in the past.
As a certain form of exploitable energy nears this upper limit, the peak of its EOI (edit:EROI), other means must be employed to keep the engine turning, so to speak. These can be a variety of tactics, some helpful, most detrimental, and all just delaying the inevitable collapse.
As a society's productivity begins to decline, as measured by the available energy per society member, the accumulation of wealth slows. The prosperity of its members halts its forward trajectory and increasing numbers fall below the carrying capacity of that society. I guess we call that carrying capacity the poverty line - the amount of money needed to merely survive as functioning members of society.
For a while stop-gap measures can be applied to mitigate the worst of these effects. Since all societies rely on manufactured consent by the manipulation of mass perception, after more subtle means fail to reverse the declining wealth of a society more overt tactics are employed. These might entail austerity measures, mass migration, authoritarian regime changes and polarizing propaganda designed to modify the behavior and expectations of its members. It most certainly leads to regional skirmishes and wars.
Since health and well-being are directly linked to the satisfaction and happiness of its citizens, more disease and radical behavior results.
As the tapping of a depleted energy source continues, entire regions are left devastated and unfit for human habitation. The land can no longer support the numbers of people and the stress of survival reaches critical mass. This leads to more civil unrest and panic and larger conflicts and wars - and more deaths and tragedies.
Up until this point in history, as far as we can know for certain at least, no society has spanned the globe. So when the collapse finally occurred the survivors could migrate to other lands and start again.
Today's society is global. There are different cultures but all are monetized and driven by technology. If this society fails, its collapse could very well mean the end of life on planet Earth. That may be a bit arrogant. It could most certainly mean the end of mankind.
In a society ravenous for electrical energy, with technology continuously craving more and more energy, there is no way for it but to invent a means of electrical generation on a magnitude far greater than anything ever imagined before. It is not only necessary it is self-evident. Unless our technological innovations are just a fad and a dead end the power needed to drive them must exist. If the captains of this world are as clever as the technologies they have invented, they must also realize this pertinent fact.
By definition, this power source would be disruptive. It would necessarily radically alter every tradition and every belief and every standard and ethic we hold as sacrosanct today. Put in the hands of desperate citizens, barely managing to survive and holding grudges against a system that has let them down will lead to disaster on an unimaginable scale.
If a new source of energy does exist, it must await a galvanizing event. It must wait for a time when citizens are ready to try something new, something not yet tried before. For the power of a god to be placed in the hands of every citizen, the citizens must feel vindicated, respected and honored.
This event must be preceded by a time of Redress. It must follow a time when those responsible for misleading the public are held accountable for their crimes. Only when "justice" is seen to be done will the populace consider another way. Only after the citizens are exposed to some of the incorrect assumptions they have lived under, things they thought were self-evident and "given" will true change have a chance. And only when they understand their true history can they know they have the capacity to prevail and the tenacity to overcome all obstacles.
Only when the time to forgive has come can change follow.
Free Energy is not free, it's currency is knowledge and integrity - two commodities in scarce supply today.

Hi:
Thanks Ernie. Well said (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1132358&viewfull=1#post1132358). You are focusing on the conundrum (http://ahealedplanet.net/conun.htm#summary), which is good work. There was a time when I thought that people could wake up to the injustices they support, the ways that they are exploited, generally by playing to their egos (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#dominant), and how they could keep their eyes on the ball (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gcfocus) and help usher forth a Star Trek Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5). I am not sure exactly when I realized that it was a pipedream, but I had a firm suspicion of it in December 1988 (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page5?p=681&viewfull=1#post681), when I learned my life’s primary lesson (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page6?p=708&viewfull=1#post708).
As I staggered from my home town, radicalized, I hit the books for the next six years (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page7?p=734&viewfull=1#post734), while digging out of my financial abyss and putting my wife through school. I was living with the consequences of sacrificing my life (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page5?p=684&viewfull=1#post684), but I had no regrets. Those were great and happy years, in many ways.
After five wearying years of long hours at my day job (http://ahealedplanet.net/trucking.htm#footnotes), wrestling with the bottle, and getting older, Dennis was suddenly flying high again, and his endless efforts to get me back in the saddle with him worked, for a short time (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page9?p=805&viewfull=1#post805), until my old doubts came to the surface once again, to become certainties: the masses are not going to wake up responsibly in a bout of conscience, and a few heroes (http://ahealedplanet.net/conun.htm#heroes) are not going to do it, either. Humanity is a bunch of ethical kindergarteners, and it does no good to judge it (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#judge1); it is simply what it is. It is nothing new, however, and in my studies sandwiched between stints with Dennis and Brian, which became increasingly comprehensive over the decades, I came to understand several dynamics, most of which I think are hopeful, which are:
Each Epoch of the human journey (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochaltable) was founded upon achieving the technical prowess and social organization to exploit a new energy source;
Each successive Epoch had these characteristics in common:
A higher energy surplus than the one preceding it;
More humane than the one preceding it;
It was initiated by a relative or literal handful of individuals.
When humanity achieved the Second Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal2), humanity’s biological equipment only changed marginally since then, and all so-called “advances” have been due to having an increased energy surplus;
The great social constructs of each Epoch were a consequence of the energy level of that Epoch, not a cause;
The energy source for each Epoch was plundered to exhaustion if the people were able to, which led to societal collapses often enough (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#collapse), but in a few places, and in only one place for our current Epoch, a handful of people learned to exploit that new energy source, which formed the foundation of the next Epoch.
If you had walked around “progressive” London in 1720 and decried the evils of slavery (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#southseas), everybody would have looked at you like you were insane, or if you argued that women deserved equality. Nowhere on Earth was the hallowed institution of slavery challenged on universal grounds. Only when machines began replacing brute physical labor did slavery become that evil and primitive institution. Even the imagined Utopias of leading Third Epoch “visionaries” had slaves in them. Only when people’s standards of living rose high enough did owning people seem barbaric. People could not afford to have that level of conscience. Similarly, in my great nation today, we slaughter the innocent by the millions (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#invading), and almost nobody in my great nation knows or cares. This is who humanity is, and they are not all going to wake up and make the next Epoch happen. It has never happened that way, and it won’t happen for this next Epoch, either. But a relative handful can (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir).
As long as free energy’s implementation is safe (no war (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#warreason1) or strip-mining the planet (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#mining)), there will be nothing to worry about, and humanity will quickly wake up to the realities of the new Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5), and warfare, ecosystem exploitation, and strip-mining Earth will be seen as barbaric as slavery is in this Epoch, or how completely slaughtering your neighbors (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#deathrate) was seen in the Third Epoch. I am all for those peacekeeping grandmothers (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#peacekeeping), and I think that humanity can turn the corner, and you are right, that the collapse that we are on the brink of will be global in nature (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#spaceshipearth); there will be no place to run and hide (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#wwIII), although Godzilla (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc) and friends have their survival enclaves picked out, and some of their plans are truly megalomaniacal (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#mars).
You are right, that integrity and sentience are in short supply on Earth, as usual, and my plan is to find enough of those needles in haystacks (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialcircle) that can mount that Epochal effort. It beats watching the Super Bowl. :)

I was mostly trying to illustrate where we might be in terms of this epochal event. It seems we might be at or near the moment when Redress can or even must occur. This administration is under the delusion that going back to the protectionist era might "Make America Great Again". Once these efforts fail, and they will, the people may be just a little less trusting of nostalgic solutions. Going back to a more prosperous time is delusional thinking.

Hi Ernie:
The human journey is full of examples of societies that might have been able to initiate the next Epoch, but didn’t, and they collapsed often enough (Australia (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#sahul) stayed in the Second Epoch, Athens (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#sparta) and Rome (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#antonine) collapsed, etc.). It is like Bucky said (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page11?p=841&viewfull=1#post841), we are facing Utopia or oblivion, on a global scale, with any kind of muddle-through middle ground shrinking with each passing year. We are likely going to get over the hump or slide all the way back to the bottom of the hill, and arthropods may dominate the continents again (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#landanimal). Only the scientifically and historically illiterate think that we are “going to make America great again.” Our only “greatness” was being the leading industrial power, as our ancestors stole Earth’s richest continent (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#englishinvasion). The USA did not invent freedom. There is not much in American history worth cheering about; not the Founding Fathers (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page11?p=841&viewfull=1#post841), not Manifest Destiny (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#steal2), not the Good War (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm#good), and certainly not our genocidal treatment of Iraq (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#invading), to “liberate” them, and not a huge wall between the USA and Mexico or banning Muslim immigrants. :)
You are right, that we are at the brink, but I don’t expect the masses anywhere on Earth to wake up to the next Epoch until it is handed to them (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#brink), just as with the prior Epochs.
Best,

Hi:
The first four months of each year were my busiest each year, but I recall working on the business plan with Joel back then. In May 2004, we had our third board meeting, and my last one, at Brian’s house again. That meeting was really the beginning of the end for me. The other members decided to mount a conference, which I suppose was normal. The first thing that we did when I became Dennis’s partner was hold our first Greatest Energy Show on Earth (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#barnum). At the board meeting, the planning began. Most of the board knew Gene Mallove (http://ahealedplanet.net/hooked.htm#mallove), and he committed to speak at the conference, at least by video presentation, two days later, on the following Monday. He was our first speaker to commit.
What began to end my NEM tenure was the other speaker that they wanted to line up: that free energy scientist who libeled Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/81-Vignettes-from-my-journey-and-how-I-learned-what-I-did-and-came-to-my-approach?p=200&viewfull=1#post200). The man was a criminal, and we were not only planning to invite him as a speaker, but board members wanted to invite him into our organization. I put up the money to get our conference going. The greatest lesson of my journey was that personal integrity is the world’s scarcest commodity (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page6?p=708&viewfull=1#post708). We had not even gotten off of the ground yet, and were bringing in a known criminal. You needed a gathering of saints to even think about pursuing free energy, and there we were, falling off the rails before we even began. Another man, who pirated Dennis’s technologies for years, was another one mentioned as a speaker. That was the meeting in which Alden handed me that two-page version of that libelous essay, written for my benefit, and then I blew my stack.
I tried to explain why we were already heading in the wrong direction, and not one other NEM board member understood what I was talking about, not even Brian. I wanted out right then. Those people were going to learn some hard elementary lessons, and I did not want to be around for it when it happened. I also had agreed to get the NEM website professionally mastered, and that is where most of my NEM money went, and that is a long story that I don’t feel like getting into. That site was eventually junked, and all of my money wasted.
I wanted out, and begged Brian to let me out, but he begged me to stay. The guy that I hired to master the site erased the old one, to work on the new one, which was a rookie move that I had never seen before. A “mystical” NEM board member begged Brian for money to attend the board meeting, and Brian decided to let him remain absent, and he joined the mutiny against Brian after I had quit.
I was working 12 hour days at my day job, and coming home to an NEM in pandemonium, trying to calm the waters. By Friday, I had gotten NEM’s site back up, and Brian was calmed down. He sent me a conciliatory email, thanking me for hanging in there, and he wrote that he thought that we might be under psychic attack, and that something was happening. As Brian wrote those words, the police were discovering Gene’s body (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#portland), after he had been beaten to death. That was the beginning of the end for Brian, as he immediately began planning his move to South America, and I could not blame him, and that story comes next.
Best,
Wade

Good evening Wade. It must be 3 years or more since I last posted on this thread and it is a real pleasure to return now. I was prompted to return to some of the places I have searched for clues on how I might more effectively apply spare time in my life towards helping our planet make a transition to a calmer, more secure and loving way of being.
Over the last few years, I have become involved in supporting the development of young people recently and this has definitely helped me to become more balanced as a person. I still do all I can to help people around me to see the world as it really is - a dreadfully sick place starved of love and with behaviour distortions apparent at every turn. My time spent in doing this does seem to be have been rewarded with many small but visible pay offs.
I now find expressing ideas like the existence of free energy solutions no longer has the effect of causing a room to fall into silence as it nearly always would if I attempted such a thing 8 years ago. We, the human collective, do seem to be making progress in becoming more aware while, at the same time, are moving ever closer to the edge of oblivion for our civilisation.
What prompted me to return here today was a conversation with a friend of mine the other day when, after many weeks of preparing the ground, I broached the topic of free energy to him. My friend is younger and understands much of what mainstream media pedals is complete nonsense. These days I don't go at things like a bull at a gate and suggested he start looking into the topic by reading a book by Nick Cook called "Hunt for the Zero Point".
Have you any other suggestions?

Hi Ixopoborn:
Sorry, but I am not into the free energy (FE) literature very much. I lived it. Cook went chasing after antigravity Black Projects and never got his hands on that Holy Grail, while my friend had it shown to him (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#underground). Heck, Brian O’s last three books were about FE, but I don’t promote them, even though I was the biggest fan of his first book on the subject (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#miracle). Jeane Manning has a couple of books (https://www.amazon.com/Jeane-Manning/e/B001K909KG/ref=sr_tc_2_0?qid=1486426261&sr=1-2-ent), which are introductory.
I read LaViolette’s book on the antigravity milieu (https://www.amazon.com/Secrets-Antigravity-Propulsion-Classified-Technology/dp/159143078X), and doubt that I read Cook’s book. I thought that I had it, but just came up empty with a trip to my library. I have books like that scattered in my library. What I have found is that it depends on what somebody is looking for. Brian’s and Jeane’s books are good introductions, but don’t get into the physics. Sparky Sweet wrote some about the physics (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ideal), but foolishly played the proprietary technology game (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#proprietary) and took it to his grave with him. There are other FE physics authors such as Moray King (https://www.amazon.com/Quest-Point-Energy-Engineering-Principles/dp/0932813941).
As fate would have it, I was planning to write a spook post or two, related to Brian’s fleeing to South America (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page11?p=846&viewfull=1#post846), as I am at that juncture of the series of posts that I have been making since last June. There are many facets of the free energy milieu, and it is easy to get sucked into many rabbit holes, including the spook side of it, which will rear its head early in any exploration of FE. I specifically wrote my big essay to help steer aware FE newcomers from the rabbit holes of the FE field’s arrested development (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#arrested). You could do worse than send him this link (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm). Heck, you have interacted with the author! :)
Best,
Wade

Hi:
This post will venture into a delicate area: that of the spooks and free energy (“FE”). Just today, I finished a book (https://www.amazon.com/Top-Nazi-General-Karl-Wolff/dp/1929631227/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_product_top?ie=UTF8) on the life of Karl Wolff (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karl_Wolff), which I got drawn into when reading a book on Allen Dulles (http://educationforum.ipbhost.com/index.php?/topic/20494-bill-decker-and-john-tower/&do=findComment&comment=321167). Wolff Likely went to a pretty dark place (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#hell) when he passed over. He was Himmler’s right-hand man and a favorite of Hitler’s, but escaped the fate of his Nazi brethren with the help of Dulles and friends, and he played Sergeant Shultz (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Banner) for the rest of his life, saying that he “knew nothing!” about the extermination of the Jews. I already had a bellyful of studying World War II and the Holocaust (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page9?p=809&viewfull=1#post809), but the study of Wolff’s life was sickly fascinating. Until his life’s end, he kept up with, “I knew nothing!” and even argued that Hitler knew nothing of the Holocaust, and that it was all Himmler’s fault. At least he did not try to deny that the Holocaust even happened (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm#holocaust).
Wolff was arguably the highest-ranking Nazi to survive for long after the war, and he did it with Dulles’s help. The CIA and Nazis were fast friends, as the CIA employed entire organizations of death camp Nazis, such as Gehlen’s (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm#gehlen), and the CIA was deeply involved in JFK’s murder and cover-up (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page8?p=761&viewfull=1#post761).
I am going to reveal a little more than I have before on Brian’s first brush with death (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#attack), which shortened his life (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/73-Darren-Geffert-s-introductory-posts?p=130&viewfull=1#post130). Brian co-hosted a UFO conference in 1992, and the USA’s military then tried to recruit him to do classified UFO work, and Brian refused. Immediately afterward, and I mean immediately, Brian nearly died of a heart attack. When Brian and I traded notes in 2001 (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#new), he told me in detail about what happened, and what he thought happened. He likely did not figure out for years what probably happened, and that is normal. It took me more than a decade to realize that we were being set up (http://ahealedplanet.net/other.htm#sting) during my second stint with Dennis.
If you get Brian’s books that describe the heart attack, he described it as like being hit by lightning. When he was examined by a physician, he was informed that feeling like being hit by lightning is not a heart attack symptom. Brian was also told that his heart attack was atypical, in that it seemed that the heart attack was brought on by some kind of blunt trauma suffered by his chest cavity, which is not the usual way to have a heart attack. The military officials who made the “offer” to Brian also possessed such “fried by lightning” technology, and Brian believed that they shot him through the walls of his home, from a nearby van, and their technology could see through the walls of his home like they were not there (not far removed from what he had just told me about Sparky’s last days (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#sparky)), and they waited until Brian was isolated from anybody else being hit by the weapon, as two deaths from “heart attacks” would look a little suspicious, let us say.
Brian was afraid for the rest of his life that if he went public with his suspicions, especially naming names, that they would finish the job. In the last year of his life, Brian gave an interview and got into the details, later thought better of it, and asked the interviewers to remove that segment of the interview, which they did.
I have heard far more harrowing tales than Brian’s in this milieu, of free energy inventors and the like coming to untimely ends (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#deadinventors), and it is far more important for the operations to look like something other than premeditated murder (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#tactics), so the attacks are made to appear to be deaths by suicide, disease (cancer (http://ahealedplanet.net/journey.htm#adamiak) and heart attacks, most prominently), “accidents,” random crimes, and so on. In the prologue of his last book (http://www.brianoleary.info/Synopsis.html), Brian mentioned “hundreds” of ways to perform that surreptitious murder. Making it look like something other than spook-inflicted murder is more important than any one murder attempt being successful, which is why free energy activists can survive multiple attempts (and also alternative doctors (http://ahealedplanet.net/mdaq.htm#koch), for instance).
Mallove (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page11?p=846&viewfull=1#post846) was supposedly murdered by his tenants (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eugene_Mallove#Death), and Brian’s pal John Mack (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_E._Mack#Death) was supposedly killed by a drunk driver the day after our NEM conference ended. Sometimes a heart attack is just a heart attack, a murder is just a murder, and an “accident” is just an accident, but when they come fast and furiously, in a milieu in which those untimely demises are well-known methods of silencing “dangerous” voices, I did not blame Brian at all for fleeing to South America. I am not saying that his tenants did not murder Mallove, or that a drunk driver did not hit Mack, but those killers may well have had some “help,” which could have come in many surreptitious ways.
There are many ways to neutralize the threats. After refusing the billion dollar bribe (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#offer), Dennis was arrested with a million dollar bail (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#jail) and ultimately kangarooed into prison for the heinous crime of failing to file a form (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#bargain), which was actually my job. When he got kangarooed into prison, his security file was doctored (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#mistakes), to put him into a shark tank, and a serial murderer (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page7?p=740&viewfull=1#post740) was suddenly moved into the same facility to be Dennis’s bunk mate. When Dennis became the murderer’s best friend instead of becoming his prey, then the prison officials seemed to frame Dennis for being a snitch, and they kept putting him into the same room with duped inmates who announced his death sentence for being a snitch. Dennis got “lucky” and only had some fingers broken and teeth knocked out, and he soon ended up wearing dentures.
If Dennis failed to survive the prison experience, it would just be one more “coincidental” untimely demise of somebody whose efforts posed a threat to the global power structure.
This is a difficult area to deal with, and the vast majority of people have unproductive reactions to the very real dangers that come with this path, which primarily are:
Naïve (http://ahealedplanet.net/conun.htm#naive) denial (or “skepticism (http://ahealedplanet.net/dennis.htm#friends)”);
Paranoia, which can take cowardly forms;
Titillation, as if they were reading tabloids or watching some Hollywood thriller.
Not many people come to a worldly and balanced view of this situation, but usually get hung up in one of those reaction categories above. I have very consciously designed what I am doing to minimize the risks that my fellow travelers faced, both to myself and anybody that I recruit to my little scheme (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir).
Best,
Wade

Hi:
After Mallove’s murder, Brian went AWOL. Joel and I were mounting the conference. Joel was a successful scientist/salesman for a forest products company in Portland, and wanted to do something like NEM, but needed to keep making six figures to do it, and I cautioned him to keep his day job. Only Dennis ever made much money in the field, and it was never for long, as he would get swatted down, or his effort self-destructed from the “help” of his “allies (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#allies).” Joel needed to treat NEM as an avid hobby, while keeping his career intact.
Among my duties at my day job was project management, and somebody like Dennis was a crisis management executive. I had seen all types of executives in my career, but never one that disappeared before. Brian was not around to make any decisions, being incommunicado for weeks. I could see why he begged me to stay, so that somebody could do the work. Joel, being a salesman, thought that he could rally his company to support free energy, and it cost him his career. He had been there for 20 years, and has scrambled ever since. When Mallove lost his job at MIT over cold fusion, he also had to scramble, and renting out his family home to make ends meet cost him his life. When Brian left the Establishment, losing his last job with them (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#saic) because he refused to work on Star Wars, he also scrambled for the rest of his life, and going bankrupt just came with the territory. I am the only person that I know of who played in the FE field at a high level and held down a corporate career, bouncing between them. It has been a strange journey, I can tell you.
But the silver lining was that Joel then had plenty of free time to mount the conference, and he rounded up a team of volunteers to help. Brian emerged from the Amazon or some such place in South America, and really didn’t care that he was not around to help. I did not know that Brian had been spooked by Mallove’s murder and was planning his move to South America. For somebody who did not want to be there, it was trying for me.
Also, as I had NEM’s site mastered, there was a mass movement mentality (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level10) among the other members, understandably. They complained, for instance, when this interview with Adam Trombly (http://www.spiritofmaat.com/archive/feb2/trombly.htm) was reproduced on NEM’s site, and Brian agreed with them. As I look back, I appreciate the irony of the NEM board trying to make NEM look like some mainstream effort, which churches and grandmothers could join, while Brian was fleeing to South America.
Alden was the hippest environmentalist that I ever met, and was on a first name basis with all the big names in environmentalism, and was trying to enlist their participation. I learned my lesson long ago on environmentalists (http://ahealedplanet.net/purpose.htm#environmentalists), and Alden had yet to. I don’t recall even one environmental organization getting involved, as they have seen free energy as the enemy (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/89-Free-energy-psychic-abilities-and-the-skeptics-and-debunkers/page2?p=438&viewfull=1#post438) since the 1970s.
I am not sure about how they may be connected, but the free-energy-fearing environmentalists had Laurence Rockefeller as their patron saint (see Battling Wall Street (https://www.amazon.com/Battling-Wall-Street-Kennedy-presidency/dp/1615779604), for instance), while he was also mentoring Steven Greer with his Disclosure Project efforts (http://ahealedplanet.net/journey.htm#greer), which later became free energy efforts. It was one of those connections that makes you go, “Hmmm.”
During those days, as I tried to get the board members to understand that inviting criminals into NEM, such as that libeler (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page11?p=846&viewfull=1#post846), was suicidal for the organization, I had a talk with Alden. Alden worked with Yull Brown (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/89-Free-energy-psychic-abilities-and-the-skeptics-and-debunkers?p=413&viewfull=1#post413) in the 1990s, as did so many others. That libeler said that Dennis ripped off his followers for $100 million. When Dennis got involved with Yull, Yull’s supporters in California told Yull that Dennis did not have any money. Yull must not have told them about the $250K that Dennis paid him as his commission on a shipment of Brown’s Gas machines from China. The subject of Yull came up during a conversation with Alden, and he challenged me (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/89-Free-energy-psychic-abilities-and-the-skeptics-and-debunkers?p=432&viewfull=1#post432) that Dennis paid Yull any money. When I told him that Dennis had paid Yull a $250K commission, Alden challenged me with, “What money?” I almost felt like I had to explain to Alden what money was. I then talked with Alden about some of Yull’s antics, and Alden said that that was the Yull that he knew.
It was bizarre to hear “he stole $100 million” from one direction, and “he had no money” coming from another. Both were Big Lies. I was being yelled at and other niceties, and I desperately looked forward to the conference, so that I could meet my commitment to Brian and quit NEM. It was going nowhere, and fast.
Best,
Wade

Hi:
Brian was very human, with his idiosyncrasies. Next to his kitchen sink was a lapis lazuli pig, about an inch-long, and he turned that pig into his alter ego (http://www.brianoleary.info/lapispig.html). He had a puppet modeled after it, and when he spoke publicly, he would use the pig as a prop, like Charlie McCarthy (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edgar_Bergen) but without the ventriloquism. Lapis Pig was a capitalist pig, similar to Dogbert (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dogbert). As we mounted NEM, it got back to me that other free energy efforts ridiculed Brian’s methods, especially Lapis Pig. One highly visible member of the free energy community in particular was very hostile to Brian, but at the same time, he was close friends with Mr. Skeptic (http://ahealedplanet.net/dennis.htm#friends), totally suckered in by Mr. Skeptic’s affable skeptic charade. What is wrong with that picture? Everywhere I looked in the free energy field was naïveté, lack of discernment, self-seeking, megalomania (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#messiah), criminality, etc. I did not find anybody else like Dennis or Brian in it, and no other Mr. Professors (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#adventures). I don’t want to have anything to do with the field today. It is in a state of arrested development (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#arrested) and going nowhere.
Over the summer of 2004, Brian finally reappeared after his South American travels, finding a place to flee to, I was having the site mastered, and Joel was busy planning the conference. That board member who wanted money (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page11?p=846&viewfull=1#post846) to attend that third board meeting essentially was a parasite to other board members, and got more than $1,000 from me, kind of under false pretenses. He later joined the mutiny against Brian. Free energy efforts with parasites like that don’t have a prayer.
In September came the conference. Because I was providing the money and handling it, I ended up running the registration desk at the conference. It was the last place on Earth where I wanted to be, and I was not a pleasant greeter. My wife came and helped, and she noted that plenty of shady characters attended. Conferences like that are swarming with Godzilla’s minions (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#conferences). At breaks, groupies surrounded Brian. One of the speakers set up a table next to ours, selling his books with an affable demeanor. He is a famous free energy scientist. He replaced me on the board and later led the mutiny against Brian.
I took only one break that first day, to hear Greer speak. That is where I heard his $100 billion in quiet money statement (http://ahealedplanet.net/hooked.htm#payoff), heard the GCs (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc) called “Godzilla” for the first time, and hearing Greer speak was almost worth it all, for me. But Greer had gone über-warrior (http://ahealedplanet.net/camelot.htm#warriors), nearly strutting his bodybuilder’s body, came to ask me for directions to the cafeteria and was almost barking orders at me within seconds. An inventor of some flying saucer-type gizmo was hawking his invention near the registration table. It was kind of a three-ring circus. What the hell was I doing there?
By that time, I think that it was obvious to all at NEM that I wanted to quit, and they held a board meeting without me that evening, which I heard about later. I think that they were going to kick me out if I didn’t quit. The morning of the second and final day of the conference, I got there to man the registration table, and guess what was happening about twenty feet away from me? That libeler of Dennis’s (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/81-Vignettes-from-my-journey-and-how-I-learned-what-I-did-and-came-to-my-approach?p=200&viewfull=1#post200) attended the conference after all, and Brian and that parasite board member were giving the guy bear hugs! He is one of the most prominent members of the free energy community, and a criminal. As soon as I could, I closed up shop, handed Joel the wad of cash that I had collected, and fled back to Seattle. I emailed my NEM resignation the next morning, which Brian sadly accepted. I still gave NEM thousands of dollars after I quit, partly so that that parasite member would not wreck the NEM site that my money built, but after getting money from me, he wrecked it anyway.
John Mack (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_E._Mack) was killed that same day as I resigned, and Brian moved to South America within weeks after the NEM conference, and Joel helped him move. Joel is a good man, and reminded me of how I might have turned out if I had not met Dennis. Alden was a good one, as was Jeane, but the list got short from there. None of them were involved in the mutiny against Brian, although Joel kind of presided over it, in what Brian thought was naïveté, not malice. I vividly recall the emotional agony that I felt after quitting NEM and having the site that I paid for get erased, and it seemed over-the-top, like I was being zapped by mind-frying psychotronic equipment. I had an experience like that one other time, and I now know that, indeed, when you play at those levels, those kinds of interventions by Godzilla and friends can happen. I am not saying that it did, in that instance, but it would not surprise me.
My midlife crisis (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#midlife) only got worse after my NEM days, and I went completely quiet for years. I may have written those Peak Oiler essays (1 (http://ahealedplanet.net/scarcity.htm), 2 (http://ahealedplanet.net/hooked.htm)) over the summer of 2004, but I did not publish anything else for over a year, when I published The Free Energy Conundrum (http://ahealedplanet.net/conun.htm). The year 2006 was perhaps the most agonizing year of my midlife crisis, which is saying something, but in the spring, I published one of my most positive essays, kind of like therapy, on what abundance looks like (http://ahealedplanet.net/abund.htm).
By the summer of 2006, one reader from my public interaction days had been asking me for years to ally with the Free Software Movement (http://ahealedplanet.net/freesoft.htm), and I spent some weeks interacting with Richard Stallman (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/73-Darren-Geffert-s-introductory-posts?p=130&viewfull=1#post130) in July 2006, who was a classic Level 3 (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level3), with free energy being contrary to accepted physics, and tales of organized suppression being an easily dismissed conspiracy theory. I still took a page from the Free Software Movement’s platform (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#utopia): I only advocate giving away free energy (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#numbers). I sure did not get the idea from them: Dennis’s marketing plan for his heat pump (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#sfs) is the closest thing to free energy that there has ever been, and NEM was non-profit, but with the help of Stallman’s work, I finally decided that giving away free energy was likely the only approach that had a prayer. I had seen everything else fail spectacularly.
So it was, with my interacting with people such as Stallman, in my agony, when Dennis showed up to my house, unannounced, to invite me to the White House (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#midlife), for an eve-of-the-election demonstration of his 100 MPG carburetor technology, arranged by George Bush the Second’s energy advisor (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=694872&viewfull=1#post694872). Dennis also wanted me to be on the board of his latest effort, with his family members, as I was the only person outside of his family (with Mr. Professor dead (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#journey)) that he fully trusted. I instantly rejected his offers and nearly wanted to throw him out of my house. But our relationship is closer than family, and he respected that I was finished with efforts like his, and it turned into a pleasant social evening after that, and he told me about some of latest adventures (glad that I was not part of them! :) ).
Dennis’s arrival was the final straw for my midlife crisis. My wife is a psychologist and believes in the process, and she insisted that I get trauma therapy after my Ventura days, which helped (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#therapy), and 15 years later, she again insisted, in the wake of Dennis’s visit, and I did, and the clouds of my midlife crisis soon began to part. By early 2007, my midlife crisis was over, but by the summer of 2007, I began burning out from the relentless pace of my day job, with 60-70 hour weeks almost continually for the previous four years. I was paid handsomely, but I was heading toward my next stress breakdown, which did not culminate for another five years, no thanks to my family, who parasited and attacked me, even as I bailed them out and supported them, which is a story that I do want to get into publicly, but some was criminal and every bit as despicable as what that former friend did (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page10?p=823&viewfull=1#post823). I have no contact with my immediate family, and don’t plan to again. Godzilla and friends were minor nuisances compared to what my friends and family did.
But 2007 was the beginning of a new chapter in my journey, when I began studying in earnest for what became my big essay (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm) and current efforts (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir), and that story comes next.

I took only one break that first day, to hear Greer speak. That is where I heard his $100 million in quiet money statement (http://ahealedplanet.net/hooked.htm#payoff), heard the GCs (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc) called “Godzilla” for the first time, and hearing Greer speak was almost worth it all, for me. But Greer had gone über-warrior (http://ahealedplanet.net/camelot.htm#warriors), nearly strutting his bodybuilder’s body, came to ask me for directions to the cafeteria and was almost barking orders at me within seconds. An inventor of some flying saucer-type gizmo was hawking his invention near the registration table. It was kind of a three-ring circus. What the hell was I doing there?
I really enjoyed Greer's book when I read it about 10 years ago, but remember not being too impressed by Greer himself as a person, and several other interviews I saw cemented said impression. I guess people could fault me too for mentioning my Qigong practice, but whenever Greer mentions being a bodybuilder I find myself asking exactly how that is relevant to anything. What that's supposed to accomplish? Is he going to crush Godzilla between his rippling biceps or something?
Looking back on all the times I romanticized the hero ideal, it was always an ego trap, and is only relevant in terms of inspiring people to connect with their own inner "hero" and stop being a victim.

Hi Chris:
Greer is a casualty of the journey. I know how dead colleagues, who are dead because they got involved with you (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#journey), can mess you up, and nobody in my circles thinks that the rash of cancers that hit Greer and crew (http://ahealedplanet.net/journey.htm#adamiak) after those Congressional hearings was coincidental. Greer is not the same guy that he was, and whether that was from the trauma, or they zapped him with psychotronic equipment to change his personality, is an open question for me. But I don’t think that his mass movement approach (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level10) would work if Jesus Christ was running it. His body-building, über-warrior approach (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level9) is almost like a caricature, and is sad to witness. Dennis banged his Bible, Brian had his Einstein hair and Lapis Pig (http://www.brianoleary.info/lapispig.html), and if I got on stage like that, people would say, “What a nerd!” :)

Hi:
So, 2007 was when I began burning out at my day job. A few years earlier, I had my Joe Kennedy moment (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_P._Kennedy_Sr.#1929_Wall_Street_Crash) when I saw bumper stickers advertising free homes, and in 2005 I began telling anybody who would listen about what was coming (http://ahealedplanet.net/savings.htm#enron). Another, bigger, one is coming.
After interacting with the founder (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/73-Darren-Geffert-s-introductory-posts?p=130&viewfull=1#post130) of the Free Software Movement (http://ahealedplanet.net/freesoft.htm) in July 2006, Dennis’s arriving at my home in September, and the clouds of my midlife crisis (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#midlife) parting soon afterward, with a therapist’s help, I read Greer’s latest book and wrote an essay about it (http://ahealedplanet.net/journey.htm) in December. And in late 2006, I began to become active again with the public, and began joining forums where I saw my work being discussed. Without exception, I was attacked. Mr. Skeptic attacked within days (http://ahealedplanet.net/purpose.htm#warning), as he closely monitored all Internet activity related to me, which is more evidence that he was a professional (http://ahealedplanet.net/other.htm#skeptic). I had been quiet for five years, but as soon as I began to interact with the public again, there he was, slinging his mud. I joined ATS and the trolls swarmed (http://ahealedplanet.net/critics.htm#troll), with one troll camping on my thread, and ATS kicked me out as the trolls attacked, which lends credence to the idea that it is a disinformation mill, and one New Age forum unceremoniously erased an entire section devoted to my work soon after a visit from Mr. Skeptic. I then decided that the only forum that I would participate in would be mine, in a troll-free zone.
In early 2007, Keith Lampe (http://www.berkeleydailyplanet.com/issue/2014-11-14/article/42723) and I began communicating, and it was due to Brian. Brian was living in exile in South America, that mutiny at NEM kicked him out of it, and when I published this essay (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm) in the summer of 2007, it fully brought Brian back into my life, as he said it was the best thing that he had seen in “a long time.” I was one of the few at NEM who acquitted themselves honorably, and Brian recognized it. Between Brian and Keith, in early 2008 I had my first published interview (http://ahealedplanet.net/radio.htm). Adam Trombly went on the show just after I did, which he did again when Scott began interviewing me (http://ahealedplanet.net/public.htm#interviews).
While the comprehensive phase of my study and writing “career” began with reading Bucky in early 2003 (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page11?p=841&viewfull=1#post841), it was not until my midlife crisis had passed (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page11?p=849&viewfull=1#post849) that I began studying with my big essay in mind, and everything that I read from 2007 onward was in preparation for writing my big essay (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm). If you had asked me back in 2007 if I would ask for time off from my job to write that essay, I would have likely been dubious, but if I had thought about it, I was never able to write anything big while I was working a day job. All of my essays since I published my 2002 site were 10-20 page affairs or shorter, and usually took weeks or months of my “spare” time to write. When I wrote my lessons learned essay (http://ahealedplanet.net/lessons.htm) (which is really a prelude to this series of posts (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page11?p=849&viewfull=1)) beginning in 2009 as a letter to Brian, it took me nearly a year to finish it. Around the time that I wrote that essay, I happened upon a book published by Shell Oil (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#paradigm), of all companies, that helped evolve the Epochal framework (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochaltable) of the human journey half (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#midpoint) of my big essay.
In early 2009, I had a joint interview with Brian with Bill and Kerry (http://ahealedplanet.net/camelot.htm), which is when my second stint of collaboration with Brian began. As with Dennis, I was the only person outside of Brian’s family that he trusted. He tried to get me to join a free energy effort involving scientists and inventors, and I declined. Been there, done that. Just as we were preparing for that interview, Dennis was in the news again (http://ahealedplanet.net/paths.htm#ftc), in the process of being run out of the USA, after the robber barons got involved again. That the sitting president’s energy advisor was one of Dennis’s fans (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=694872&viewfull=1#post694872) meant nothing. As I read the FTC’s charges, I thanked my lucky stars that I rejected Dennis’s offer to get involved with him again. I had enough of that for a lifetime, and Dennis did not seem to know anything different than mounting a business effort. It won’t work, not on this planet at this time.
In the spring of 2009, as I was being evicted from my home by my landlord because he lost his job at Microsoft and had to sell the house (after being run out of my previous home by the Love Israel hippie cult (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Love_Family) - the downsides of renting…), Brian asked me to help him write a DOE proposal (http://www.brianoleary.info/Impacts.html). I wrote my parts (the big picture and further obstacles parts) as I was literally boxing up my library for the move, but as I was doing it, I thought back to my speeches at DOE hearings a dozen years earlier (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page11?p=843&viewfull=1#post843) and wondered what Brian thought that we were going to accomplish, and their swift dismissal (http://ahealedplanet.net/brian%20doe%20talk.flv) was no surprise.

Hi:
To briefly return to Chris’s observation on heroes (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1132914&viewfull=1#post1132914), he is right that the only role that a hero should aspire to is inspiring others to find their inner heroes. That does not mean taking on the “bad guys,” but just doing the decent thing. I have known some of the greatest “heroes” on Earth, and what they had in common was just wanting to do the decent thing, those overgrown Boy Scouts (http://ahealedplanet.net/paths.htm#scouts). But in a world of scarcity and fear (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#coming), where personal integrity is the scarcest commodity (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page6?p=708&viewfull=1#post708), such people are few and far between, and during their lives on Earth, they are usually vilified, attacked, and come to grim ends, to only be lionized after they are gone. An apt aphorism is that societies honor their dead rebels and live conformists. All that you have to do to be a “hero” is just care (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=308&viewfull=1#post308). That leads to all the rest. But martyred heroes are not going to make the biggest event in the human journey happen (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5). We already have enough of those, and their journeys can help those behind them understand how the land lies, and what the path to success might be. That is a major point of my work, to keep the people I seek (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir) free of the many pitfalls that beckon (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#approaches), waiting to swallow up the naïve (http://ahealedplanet.net/conun.htm#naive), the “heroic (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#messiah1),” and so on.

Hi:
In late 2010, the relentlessness of my job really began taking its toll, and I developed chest pains. In early 2011, I went to a doctor, for one of the only times in my life and the only time in the past 20 years. He was a heart specialist, and I went through the testing, including a treadmill test with an ultra-sound, and he almost laughed at me. I maxed out their treadmill, and I had about the biggest heart that he had seen, in a good way. Hikers like me are generally not heart attack candidates, as long as I can keep the weight off and not become a fat(ter :) ) old man, and it has been a struggle. It was just stress-related, which is not unusual for people my age in those kinds of positions. A co-worker about my age landed in the hospital a couple of times with the same symptoms before he decided that he needed to get out of that environment and get into a slower lane, and he has. Corporate America chews you up and spits you out.
Kind of ironically, it was also during the greatest earning years of my life, when for the first time, money stresses vanished. I was making some righteous high-tech money. It was a wonderful feeling, and a preview of what all people will feel in the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5). Survival stresses will simply disappear, and it can’t come too soon.
I spent $70K on my family in those years, supporting and helping them. For my trouble, I was betrayed, attacked, and so on – the usual. But I don’t regret helping my family. My family’s low-integrity and even criminal behavior is what drove me to seek a career break, more than anything else. No good deeds go unpunished in our insane world, but the silver lining was that I wrote my big essay (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm) on that break. I could not have done it while working. It took a year of full-time effort to produce, after a decade of study, in my “spare” time. Last year’s plan was to take time off from my consulting gig and update my big essay (it will be a significant revision), but, as usual in corporate America, all hell broke loose and I was tasked with holding a key part of the company together, pulling all-nighters and the rest of that fun, and did not have the time to perform that essay update, which will take about a month of effort. Maybe this year I will be able to. We’ll see.
Dennis appreciated what I did for him (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#mortgage), as did Mr. Professor (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#adventures), as did Brian, as did a few of the other “good guys” on my journey, but my family was not among the appreciative, with all of them acting entitled and worse. People who help along my effort should not expect any support from their social circles. It is just what it is, and trying to enlist one’s social circles (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialcircle) on this Epochal task is a good way to get ostracized and worse. I am not playing Wade the Theorist here, but I learned those lessons the hard way, as did my fellow travelers. When I traded notes with my relatively few fellow travelers, on the betrayals of my friends and family, the standard response was, “Welcome to the club.” Even my “hippest” pupils just had to go out and proselytize to their social circles, and they all came back to me with tales of ostracism, of relationships wrecked, death threats, and so on. Then they were sobered up, ready to learn, and put away their bright ideas (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#approaches).
That bout of chest pains led to some realizations, one of which was that I only have so many good years left in this lifetime, I wanted to make them count, and I have been. On the living scale, I have been getting it done over the past six years. I began my career break with a 9,000-mile Bucket List trip (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/81-Vignettes-from-my-journey-and-how-I-learned-what-I-did-and-came-to-my-approach/page3?p=249&viewfull=1#post249), which was wonderful. A couple of years ago, while hiking one day, I realized that I got my fair share in this lifetime (http://ahealedplanet.net/pics.htm), and everything else is gravy. When I chased Dennis to Boston (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=611&viewfull=1#post611) and lived in California (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page4?p=652&viewfull=1#post652), Ohio (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page7?p=734&viewfull=1#post734), and New Jersey (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page9?p=803&viewfull=1#post803), I had my doubts about getting my fair share, but the past 20 years in Seattle got me that fair share. I’ll never surpass my big essay, and that is fine by me. Updating that essay periodically, like a college textbook, building the choir (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir), and getting in some hiking, making a living and playing the dutiful husband is all that I have on my plate, and all that I plan to have for the rest of my life. I’ll take my nephew backpacking (http://ahealedplanet.net/pics.htm#white2) until Uncle Wade is too old to do it anymore, and with luck, that day is at least 15 years from now.
At the same time that I was deciding to make my last years count, Brian also knew that the end was near. During 2009, as I helped Brian write that DOE proposal (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page11?p=850&viewfull=1#post850), write the email to him that became my lessons learned essay (http://ahealedplanet.net/lessons.htm), which Brian called “premier material (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=918852&viewfull=1#post918852),” and he was planning to promote my approach before he died, the issue of Brian’s biographies came up. He was the only astronaut without a biography on NASA’s site, and his biography at Wikipedia was execrable. I offered to do his biographies, and he took me up on it. He also may have suggested it. It just came up during our collaborations. I have written about that NASA bio process elsewhere (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=267098&viewfull=1#post267098), so won’t belabor it. For strategic reasons, I decided to do the NASA bio (https://www.jsc.nasa.gov/Bios/htmlbios/oleary-bt.html) first, and that was an adventure (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog?p=284&viewfull=1#post284), and right after it was published, a leading space “skeptic” tried to debunk Brian’s Martian credentials, which led to this section (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianbio.htm#mars) of Brian’s bio on my site.
Brian had his last heart attack in the summer of 2010, which hastened his life’s end, soon after that NASA experience, and I began working on his Wikipedia bio about when he had his heart attack. Dealing with Wikipedia’s “editors” was an unpleasant process, to put it mildly. I was leery of the process (http://ahealedplanet.net/wikimass.htm) for years before I began working on Brian’s Wikipedia bio (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brian_O%27Leary). By the end of 2010, I was finished with his Wikipedia bio, and battling with the “editors” who kept trying to make his bio about the Moon landings issue (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#apollo) and other distractions, which resulted in what truly became Brian’s last word (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianbio.htm#statement) on the issue. The gossipy and troll-ish “editors” of Brian’s Wikipedia bio have now gone away, with Brian’s death, and I can live with his bio as it stands today. For a limited venue such as Wikipedia, I think that it is a fair rendition of Brian’s life. I am so happy that I got those bios done while Brian was still alive.
Just as I was finishing my bio work for Brian, along came Bill, who learned the same forum lessons that I did, and began Avalon in its current incarnation. Not just any old troll (http://ahealedplanet.net/critics.htm#troll) can join up, which has kept Avalon a peaceful venue, and I have been here for six happy years. It is time for my annual donation to Avalon, and I just did it, reminding myself of my tenure.
My readers have remarked on it, and I also get contacted privately, which is not visible at Avalon, but about once a month somebody stumbles into my work and contacts me, through either posting at Avalon or contacting me privately, who is new to the issue and comes dragging a pile of New Age (http://ahealedplanet.net/purpose.htm#purpose), conspiracist (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#conspiracism), and other baggage, which they have to jettison if they are going to begin to understand. They are almost all scientifically illiterate (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=313&viewfull=1#post313), too, so much of the “fringe” baggage that they drag to me, or axes that they grind, are pure rubbish, much of it at the gossip/disinformation level, the chaff of the fringes. When I make it clear that I am not here to sort through their baggage and dig through the piles of chaff that they present to me, they leave, and almost always courteously, usually by going silent. That is a far cry from what I got in all-comers forums that discussed my work (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page11?p=842&viewfull=1#post842), and I can only appreciate it.
But as nice as Avalon is, I need to have a far more focused effort if my plan is going to have a prayer, and I turned down kind offers to have a section of Avalon devoted to an invitee-only section of it, and began my own forum (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/forum.php). Bill does not need that kind of pressure, and so far, mounting my own forum has been easy, with a little help from my friends, whom I often met through Avalon.
Right now, my forum is largely The Wade Show, but it won’t always be so. I have devoted the rest of my life’s “spare” time to this pursuit, and I never expected it to begin quickly. So far, the only choir candidates have been reading my work for years, up to 20 years, and have a good idea of what I am trying to accomplish.
I sort of ran ahead with this post, and will back up to discuss more of the lessons learned in recent years, but this series of posts is drawing to an end, after more than two hundred of them. The end is in sight now, but I am not quite there yet.
Best,
Wade

A case could be made that these energy epochs are correlated with an increase in self awareness and a consequent expansion of consciousness.
It can be illustrated in the accelerating pace of technological innovation, as more refined means of energy are employed:
1) Steam driven locomotives: It took a century to lay track for the railway business.
2) Gas-powered vehicles: It took 50 years to finally get decent roads built (big push in 1950s)
3) Electrically operated Personal computers: 30 years from the invention of the transistor to the first simplistic computers
4) Broad band optical transmission and the Internet (www): 20 years from the first PC to 54k dial-up service, 5 - 10 years to up-grade to fibre optic trunk lines and the blistering speeds and baud rates of today
5) Microwave transmission used in Cellular phones, and now everywhere else as well: 15 years from first devices for mass consumption with spotty service to today
One could go backwards in history as well where the pace of innovative change was ever slower and measured in centuries, even millennia, reaching back into a past with scarcer and scarcer data to correlate a connection through the renaissance, the dark ages, the Great Empires back to Egypt, where life stayed the same for many generations without any noticeable change.
Of course in the very first civilization, ancient Sumeria, the theory falls apart because practically every civilizing facet of human life suddenly appeared, fully formed, and ready for daily use.
Sometimes, these epochs seemed more about a sudden enervating revelation that then catapults the imagination of the culture to new heights, an energetic lift in consciousness, so to speak. The renaissance comes to mind as an example where the minds of the artists exploded with color and life, and a new modern place in the universe could be embraced.
Could go on but it's late.

Hi:
I want to back up to when Brian came back into my life. During those three years of almost no contact, Brian was kicked out of NEM (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#nem), and I am not sure when it happened, but it was likely not long after Brian moved to South America, probably within a year. When I left, I wished them the best, but it looked like they were heading nowhere, and fast, and I did my best to not think about NEM. When I wrote that essay (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm) in the summer of 2007, which brought Brian back into my life, it was not long before he informed me about what happened at NEM. That famous free energy scientist who joined up, replacing me on the board, led a mutiny against Brian. Specifically, they wanted to muzzle him. It seemed to be a cousin to the ridicule that Brian received over Lapis Pig (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page11?p=849&viewfull=1#post849).
Whatever one wanted to say about Brian, he was no slouch as an author (http://www.brianoleary.info/cv.htm). During my NEM days, when Brian would write an article, or when he was doing an interview, those were happy moments for me. He was my favorite free energy spokesman, and getting him visibility was my primary purpose at NEM. On the left side of his home page (http://www.brianoleary.info/index.html) are writings that he made in his last years. He also had a blog (https://drbrianoleary.wordpress.com/). It was good stuff.
Brian saw himself and me as a team of equals, even back at the founding of NEM, while I saw myself more as his spear-carrier, as I had been with Dennis. While Brian had left the scientific and scholarly style largely behind as he wrote, I was going in the other direction, with my scholarly, and later scientific, writings. Brian saw that we complemented each other. Also, unlike Brian or anybody else at NEM, I had been through the free energy meat grinder, with the perspective that only that kind of experience can develop. Brian’s was a vital voice, and he wanted NEM’s site to be an outlet for his writings, but that free energy scientist thought differently, so he, that parasite board member, and another new member whom I never met, mounted a mutiny that silenced Brian and kicked him out of NEM. When Brian informed me of what happened, he offered to provide the evidence of it, but I had seen enough of that (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#shocked) over the years and did not want or need to see his evidence. He was on the outside looking in, and that was all that I needed to know.
During those years, another free energy scientist who had privately ridiculed and attacked Brian ended up largely running NEM. Brian was out, and his assailants ran the show. Typical. Even Mr. Skeptic (http://ahealedplanet.net/dennis.htm#friends) moved into the inner circle, which was surreal. Brian told me that it was the second time that he was kicked out of an organization that he founded. I watched Dennis get his company stolen twice (1 (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=604&viewfull=1#post604), 2 (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/81-Vignettes-from-my-journey-and-how-I-learned-what-I-did-and-came-to-my-approach?p=206&viewfull=1#post206)), and I was his partner the second time. Brian asked me if maybe the CIA had infiltrated NEM. I replied that anything was possible, but that I doubted it. What happened at NEM was typical, in our low-integrity world. While it was possible that the CIA or Godzilla might have been involved in wrecking NEM, it was at most one provocateur who easily manipulated the others, but I doubt that Godzilla (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc) or the CIA was involved, although I strongly suspect that plenty more than met the eye happened with Mallove’s murder (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#portland). I really did not see anybody like Bill (http://ahealedplanet.net/hitman.htm) or Ken (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/81-Vignettes-from-my-journey-and-how-I-learned-what-I-did-and-came-to-my-approach?p=206&viewfull=1#post206) at NEM, although I was not there for the mutiny. From what I knew of the mutineers, they were just typical players in the milieu, not on somebody’s payroll. That is what low-integrity looks like, which I have witnessed innumerable times (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#burn) during my journey.
In early 1986, before I met Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#hitting), you could not have convinced me of what I was about to learn over the next three years, but by the time that I met Gary Wean (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page5?p=683&viewfull=1#post683), nothing about human behavior could ever surprise me again. What happened at NEM was mild, as far as I was concerned, but Brian was miffed, to put it lightly.
Dark pathers (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#serving), AKA psychopaths and sociopaths, comprise only a few percent of humanity, and most people will not go out of their way to hurt people, but they will not go out of their way to help them, either. Most people are just trying to survive and temporarily sate their addictions, but their personal integrity is low enough so that it does not take much to entice them to betray others. What my family and friends did to me was normal, but the perils and temptations in the free energy milieu are orders of magnitude beyond what people typically encounter in their daily lives, so extreme behaviors become normal in that field, as the idea of free energy becomes like The One Ring dropped into a den of Orcs. Oh, what I have seen people do. In that light, Brian’s being kicked out the organization that he founded was just a day at the office in the free energy field.
While what happened at NEM was not a big surprise to me, and I got the clues of what lied ahead in my first hour at Brian’s home back in June 2003, when a brief account of my adventures was received like I was crazy, one thing happened from the NEM experience that informs my efforts today: I will never be involved with another free energy mass movement again. I learned my lessons, from my stints with Dennis, my independent efforts, and the NEM experience finally got it out of my system, which pleased my wife. The social approach is never going to work (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level10). Exactly why it was not going to work I could not articulate until I developed my Epochal Event framework (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochaltable) several years later, and was deeply into the study that led to my big essay. Sociality is adaptive, and people operating from social consciousness (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialreason) are seeking in-group (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ingroup) acceptance and survival, which means that self-service is their overriding motivation. That mentality is worse than worthless for making an Epochal Event happen, especially the biggest event in the human journey (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5). Humanity’s social managers have long possessed the technology (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#underground) that the Fifth Epoch will be based upon, if humanity survives that long (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#spaceshipearth), but the issue is one of integrity and sentience (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#sentience1), not technology and sociality. The masses are not going to be talked into making the Fifth Epoch happen. They will only begin to understand (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#brink) when they can experience it, just like with the other Epochal Events (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#imagine). Talking up free energy to one’s social circles (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialcircle) is like trying to describe the Industrial Revolution (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal4) and the evils of slavery to a Londoner in 1720 (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#southseas): you would have been regarded as insane. Only combined positive intention (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gcfocus) by people with sufficient sentience and integrity has a prayer, IMO.
I was finally able to articulate what about Dennis’s approach, which was evident the day that I met him (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=601&viewfull=1#post601), was not going to work for what we tried to accomplish. People whose “skin in the game” was waiting for somebody to deliver (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level4) Earth-shaking technology to into their laps or homes, for free (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#sfs), are useless for making an Epochal Event happen.
People primarily motivated by self-interest are effortlessly defeated by a little organized suppression (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#hurdles), and when the issue is free energy, almost everybody turns into Orcs lusting after The One Ring, and the entire effort readily collapses in a bloody orgy of greed (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#greed) and fear, and Godzilla (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc) just needs to stand back and watch, eating popcorn and chuckling. Heck, NEM was non-profit, and look at what happened.
Best,
Wade

Thanks Ernie:
Good stuff.
A major thrust of my big essay is to show how seeming “explosions” actually had a pretty long ramping period, and what seemed to happen overnight really had a long prelude of establishing the conditions for the “explosion.”
The Cambrian Explosion (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#cambriancause) vexed Darwin onward, but the scientific findings since then have shown that the Cambrian Explosion was hundreds of millions of years in the making (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#canfield2), but at a microscopic level.
The so-called Great Leap Forward to behavioral modernity (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#leap) is now seen as a much longer process, and one “rule” of paleobiology and anthropology is that events always happened earlier than initially thought. Chimps play politics worthy of Machiavelli (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#rhesus1), and many human social traits are now thought to go back 25 million years or so, to monkeys.
Similarly, Sumer was really something relatively late in the Third Epoch. The Domestication Revolution was thousands of years old before cities appeared (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#sumer), and cities had their predecessors (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#kebaran).
The Renaissance was arguably born with the Classic Greeks (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#classicgreece), two millennia earlier. The reintroduction of the Greek writings into Europe from captured Islamic libraries, especially the one at Toledo (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#toledo), planted the seeds of humanism in Europe, which flowered in the Renaissance three centuries later.
Europe’s conquest of the world had a long ramp, going back to Sumer and its sailboats (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#sailboat1), the Greeks with their watermills and windmills (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#early), and even the first steam engine, so when the Portuguese began sailing the high seas (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#portugal), they were beneficiaries of thousands of years of innovation.
What also became clear in my studies was that each Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochaltable) was founded on exploiting a new energy source that provided a higher energy surplus, usually about an order of magnitude, and all else came after it, including changes in human sociality, technology, and even biology (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#chimpbrain).

Hi:
I have written about how my views changed during my journey (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#views), from my earliest days (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#glimpse) of imagining changing the energy industry to my years with Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=601&viewfull=1#post601), to my studies for my site (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page7?p=734&viewfull=1#post734), and the NEM experience (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#nem) was important for me, in a few ways.
When I became Dennis’s partner (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page3?p=614&viewfull=1#post614), I doubt that either one of us had even heard of Nikola Tesla (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#tesla1), and other than hearing about Joe Newman (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=602&viewfull=1#post602), we certainly did not know about a free energy field, and the free energy inventors and aspirants since Tesla. I had no idea that Dennis had just mounted the greatest run ever made (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#run) to bring alternative energy to the American marketplace.
During the Ventura disaster (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page4?p=652&viewfull=1#post652), with the tales of woe coming to our door (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#windmill), and hearing about Sparky Sweet’s story (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#sweet) soon before I left my home town, I began waking up to the milieu that we had stumbled into. Within months of moving to Ohio (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page7?p=734&viewfull=1#post734), I was interacting with people in the free energy field and met Brian in 1991 (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#meet), as he was just getting his feet wet in the field. My years of study after Ventura were an eye-opener in many ways. If not for my years with Dennis, I would have likely not embarked on those years of study. During those years, I learned plenty about our professional ancestors in the free energy field, as well as many aspects of our world that are starkly different from how they are popularly presented. I got to see the medical racket at work (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#experience) before I left Ventura, and soon after reaching Ohio, I learned how the booklet that saved my father’s life (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#lessons) was banned in the USA (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#banned), The Land of the Free.
But those lessons were only contours of a much larger framework that I was developing, which included how the USA’s imperial ways are misrepresented to the extent that genocide (http://ahealedplanet.net/columbus.htm#genocide), continental criminality (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#blueprint), and other immense crimes (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm#dropping) are either swept under the carpet or turned into heroic feats (http://ahealedplanet.net/intro.htm#paradigms), with genocidists (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#serra) literally becoming saints (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#saint). I discovered that the “news” that I read every day for 20 years was little more than a string of lies (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#big), and I got a taste of that as soon as I met Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/COP.htm#news), and it reached surreal levels (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page5?p=687&viewfull=1#post687) by the end of my first stint with him. I had my real-world anthropology lesson during those years with Dennis, and it was not the kind of education that you can buy. It was only many years later, as I studied professional anthropology, that I could put what I learned from those days about humanity into an articulate framework.
During my prison-risking second stint with Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page9?p=803&viewfull=1#post803), some key suspicions became virtual certainties, and I was forever inoculated against the inventor’s/businessman’s approach to free energy. In the USA, it is the most tried and most doomed approach of all. By my second stint with Dennis, I was well aware of the free energy milieu, and those with the right stuff were few and far between. I was also aware that the technologies that those garage tinkerers and scientists were chasing had probably been developed to a commercial level (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#underground) before I was born. Most of what can be seen on the public stage today is the leftovers. The good stuff was removed from view almost immediately (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#make), and when free inventors declare themselves to be the Messiah (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#messiah1) or Second Coming (http://ahealedplanet.net/conun.htm#grandeur), Godzilla must break into gales of laughter.
Several years later, I saw Greer’s Disclosure Project (http://ahealedplanet.net/journey.htm#greer) witnesses describing what my friend had seen, and listening to Greer speak about his adventures (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page11?p=849&viewfull=1#post849) gained him credibility with me, as he was describing situations that my circle had already experienced. That does not make Greer fit for the attempt that he is making (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1133121&viewfull=1#post1133121), but nobody is fit for that, as far as making that approach bear fruit. My hat is off to him for trying, but I have very strong doubts that his mass movement approach (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level10) will work. The masses are not oriented in the way that is needed for success with that approach.
At NEM, I interacted with some of the big names of the milieu, other board members were very connected to them, and Brian was the most connected of all, by far. He was the most visible member of the free energy milieu, and like Dennis, he was a man of the people and had a very wide social net. I got to see the milieu in a way that I had not done before, and other than Brian and a few others, I was decidedly unimpressed. What I began to suspect about the field’s arrested development (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#arrested) became a certainty during my NEM days. Free energy scientists and inventors are a dime a dozen, and almost none of them ever had the right stuff. I never met an altruistic inventor, much less an altruistic free energy inventor. It is reasonable to want to be fairly compensated for one’s efforts, but the free energy field is not a place to have that expectation met.
Almost everything that I have done in the field was for free, and that was the easy part. I sacrificed my life to it, and it was wrecked in ways that I may never be able to publicly reveal. That just comes with the territory.
I was done with free energy scientists and inventors, done with the businessman’s approach, and in the wake of the NEM fiasco, I was done with all mass movement efforts. They simply don’t have a prayer in today’s environment. All of the failed approaches that I listed (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#approaches) were ones that I was either part of, heard about through trading notes with fellow travelers, watched as they unfolded, or read or heard about later, and not just once each for each failed approach, but several times each, at minimum.
The aftermath of the NEM experience is where the seeds of my current approach were planted. It was not until 2010 (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#paradigm) that I began seeing free energy in Epochal terms (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochaltable), nearly 40 years after my journey began (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#glimpse). So, I am sympathetic to people who have difficulty wrapping their minds around the concepts that I present. But I seek the few who are able and willing to understand, and they are needles in haystacks (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialcircle).
The magnitude of free energy easily overwhelms people’s egos, especially if they are not grounded, and my big essay can be seen as one big attempt to ensure that those involved with me are grounded. Within a comprehensive framework, free energy can be seen in terms that can keep people grounded.

Hi:
One of the most important lessons that I learned during my journey was that of discernment. It related to many areas of my perspective, from the scientific and scholarly to the mystical to the fringes, to seeing who had the right stuff and who didn’t, too seeing what worked and what didn’t, and why. There is a mountain of chaff out there, in all directions. Sifting the wheat from the chaff takes long, hard work. In a world of scarcity and fear (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#coming), everybody is selling, and if they sell schlock, so be it, as long as there are suckers lining up to buy it. The schlock-selling also has a range of awareness by the sellers, from teachers uncritically selling their students the fairy tales of American nationalism (http://ahealedplanet.net/intro.htm#paradigms) to scientists unconsciously producing experimental “results (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/80-Vaccination?p=189&viewfull=1#post189)” that their patrons want to see, to historians doing the same as they sift through the documentary record (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#objectivity), to outright dark path fraud (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#serving), often genocidal fraud (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#invading), perpetrated on behalf of their “customers.” My former company was one of those “suckers” to what Wall Street was selling (http://ahealedplanet.net/savings.htm#over), and instead of filling up prisons with Wall Street executives, they got bailed out, and the pitifully weak laws erected after that meltdown are now in the process of being scuttled. On the consumer side, there is also a spectrum of awareness, from brainless gullibility to self-righteous justification (http://www.counterpunch.org/2003/07/15/considering-the-obvious/), to unconscious “confirmation bias” to a keen awareness of nature of the lies, cleverly parroted so that the parrots can appear to honestly hold their untenable positions. I have seen it all over the years.
As I write this, there is the usual pile of books and magazines beside my bed, and clean-up time is not far off, so that I can start over again. That pile includes recent issues of Scientific American and Z Magazine, books on epigenetics, chimps, bonobos, and political, conspiratorial, and afterlife topics, a book on how the species were dispersed across the planet, and fantasy literature.
That book on species dispersal (The Monkey’s Voyage (https://www.amazon.com/Monkeys-Voyage-Improbable-Journeys-History/dp/0465020518)) is typical of popular science works that I have digested over the years, in that the author takes pains to show his readers how science is far from some noble quest for the truth, with new hypotheses and evidence triumphing, to be immediately acknowledged by the scientific community. In fact, it almost never happens that way. Scientists are human, and they behave just like all professionals, in that there are ideals of practice, but which are readily cast aside in the quest for money, fame, power, and other self-serving perks.
All professions prostitute themselves to the prevailing winds of wealth and power, sadly. Where there is less at stake (such as the story of the journey of life on Earth (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#midpoint)), then there is a better chance of getting relatively impartial information, but where huge vested interests are at stake, the truth is often turned upside-down, and far too many people are eager to sell their souls. Fluoridation (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/80-Vaccination?p=784&viewfull=1#post784) is one example of many, in which professionals consciously worked on behalf of the forces of darkness, selling their souls, and suckered in others who were eager to believe the lies, used the power structure to silence their critics, and reality was turned upside down, as a hazardous industrial waste received a makeover to become compulsory “medicine.” The Global Warming “debate (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/90-Global-Warming-Peak-Oil-and-related-topics?p=463&viewfull=1#post463)” is another ongoing example.
There is no end to that kind of fraud perpetrated by the Establishment, but the fringes are filled with the same kind of behavior, but those hucksters only prey upon their gullible audiences, who are usually some small portion of the population. Some is relatively benign, such as Paul Bragg’s lies about his background and age (http://ahealedplanet.net/bragg.htm), while other kinds of fraud can be deadly. I have seen my Bragg essay dismissed by his fans because I am a “conspiracy theorist.” The only credible challenge to that essay is going to be proving that the documents that I produced are not genuine, and good luck with that. Dismissing me as a “conspiracy theorist,” without dealing with the documents that I present, is the argument of the mindless, at best, but I have encountered such criticisms and dismissals countless times over the years, coming both from orthodoxy and the fringes. Some dismissers and critics are simply irrational and unconscious, but others are calculating in their seeming stupidity, only trying to gull the undiscerning who are looking for an excuse, no matter how flimsy, to adhere to their self-serving beliefs (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#dominant).
Sharpening our tools of discernment is critical for living our lives, whether it is in orthodoxy or the fringes. I have written plenty about the Velikovsky issue (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page10?p=817&viewfull=1#post817) and won’t belabor it, but one area of Holocene catastrophist theorizing is that Antarctica was ice-free in historical times. One piece of “evidence” is the Piri Reis (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piri_Reis) map. It is not evidence at all, but today there is ongoing “exposure” of some ancient civilization discovered in the Antarctic ice sheets, and the exposer uses the Piri Reis map in his arsenal of “evidence.” Anybody with the slightest scientific literacy knows how idiotic the idea of an ice-free Antarctica in historical times is. There is an awesome body of scientific evidence that Antarctica began growing its ice sheets at least 35 million years ago (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#icehouse) (it has been growing it and losing it for hundreds of millions of years (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#cryogenian)).
Antarctica’s ice sheets have waxed and waned over the past 35 million years, but since the mid-Miocene cooling (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#miocenecooling), when Greenland also began growing its ice sheets, Antarctica’s ice sheets have been healthy, spanning the continent. To cite ancient maps of dubious provenance, and ignore a vast and highly impressive body of scientific evidence, is the huckster style that I am all too familiar with, but my email inbox has been getting regular reports on the buried Antarctic “city,” which is nothing but a YouTube video, replete with music and fancy graphics, with virtually no supporting evidence other than some self-confessed “whistleblower” who is gulling his willing dupes with something worthy of the Weekly World News (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weekly_World_News). I can hardly believe that people keep sending me that kind of rubbish. When I reply with links to the scientific evidence, I get silence in return, until the next email on that amazing “discovery.”
Next will be an important issue, on how even Einstein can be wrong, as he helped promote Hapgood’s Pole Shift Hypothesis (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_Hapgood#Polar_shift), which partly relied on the Piri Reis map and was formed before the science of plate tectonics arose. Einstein would be the first today to deny the validity of Hapgood’s Pole Shift Hypothesis, just as he would deny that there was much, if anything, to Velikovsky’s hypothesis. Hypotheses come and go. That is normal science at work, but those hypotheses never made it over the hump to scientific acceptance in the first place.
Best,
Wade

Hi:
A book I am reading, The Monkey’s Voyage (https://www.amazon.com/Monkeys-Voyage-Improbable-Journeys-History/dp/0465020518), deals with the issue of how Earth’s species came to be distributed across the planet as they are. I’ll have more to say when I finish it, but a third of the way into it, it is partly an account of some rather scandalous episodes in mainstream science, albeit on the far margins, in which some scientists argued for humans and dinosaurs co-existing, just like in the cartoons. That bizarre idea arose from a dogma around the notion that species’ migrating between the continents has never happened to any significant degree. That is really out there, especially for credentialed scientists, but shows how crazy little cottage industries can arise within the scientific establishment.
The distribution of the species across the planet is something that greatly concerned Darwin, and there were many mysteries of distribution that did not begin to become clear until the rise of plate tectonics in the 1960s. The man who first proposed moving continents (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#wegener) in a scientific hypothesis had it dismissed for generations before various lines of evidence revived it. It is one of the many episodes in science in which impressive evidence was provided for something happening, but not understanding why. For evidence to be dismissed because it can’t be explained is one of mainstream science’s shortcomings. Unexplained evidence is what led to theories such as relativity.
What was also interesting in The Monkey’s Voyage is that while Wegener’s evidence was completely dismissed in the USA, it had somewhat of an audience in Europe, and this is not the first time that I have seen where the USA was “behind” other nations in accepting scientific evidence, partly because the USA had a kind of instrument fetish, and to a degree still does. The toolset of science (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#toolset) is vitally important, but it is not the be-all, end-all. Darwin’s theories became a dogma, and studying mass extinctions was a taboo in the USA and Great Britain (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#darwin) for more than a century, but Continental Europe was more open to the idea.
What so many popular science works I have read over the years make clear is that science is a social process, arguably as much as it is about instruments, evidence, and hypotheses. As Einstein once said, our theories partly determine what we can see. There are entire fields of science that are fraudulent (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page11?p=854&viewfull=1#post854), such as fluoridation, as vested interests triumphed (once again, in the USA more than anyplace else).
I bring this up as a continuation of my previous post (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page11?p=855&viewfull=1#post855). Until the rise of plate tectonics, pole shifts were proposed for certain evidence, and Hapgood (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_Hapgood#Polar_shift) should have been about the last of them, but wasn’t. To this day, aspects of his hypothesis survive on the fringes, and one of the wackiest of them is that Antarctica was ice-free in historical times, and much of it hinges on old maps, such as the Piri Reis map (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piri_Reis), which are a very far cry from evidence that Antarctica was ice-free in historical times. A recent revival of long-discredited hypotheses is Gavin Menzies’s work (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/68-Why-I-am-taking-my-approach?p=117&viewfull=1#post117), which is something worthy of the tabloids, but garnered a huge popular following, with its enthusiasts not far removed from people believing that Old Testament tales are the literal truth (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#tales).
With those scientists in The Monkey’s Tale, they went to the other extreme. According to the most extreme members of that club, only plate tectonics can explain the distribution of Earth’s species. So, there was no founder group that left Africa and conquered Earth (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#founderexit), but Homo sapiens lived on all of the continents, back when dinosaurs roamed Earth. Yes, credentialed scientists advocate that. The Monkey’s Voyage deals with one of the most remarkable cases of dispersion, which was how monkeys crossed from Africa to South America (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#monkeysplit). Rodents did (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#pliocene), too.
To this day, I encounter self-admittedly scientific illiterate people who dismiss the corpus of scientific evidence in favor of Hapgood, Velikovsky, Menzies, and the like. Hapgood (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_Hapgood#Polar_shift) and Velikovsky (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#velikovsky) had Einstein’s gracious attention, but Einstein would be the first today to deny the validity of their hypotheses. Einstein noted that every theory is eventually “killed by a fact,” and he expected that his theories would one day become obsolete, but that the best parts of them would survive in the succeeding theories. But the followers of Hapgood, Velikovsky, Hancock, Menzies, and the like seem unacquainted with the idea that theories can fall by the wayside, dealt a mortal blow by the evidence, and the validity of the work of those authors has died a million deaths at the hands of the evidence. The evidence is robust and overwhelming (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#icehouse) that Antarctica has been under a sheet of ice for at least 10 million years (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#miocenecooling). What we see today is the lowest ebb of Antarctica’s ice sheets in the past million years, not some icy condition that suddenly appeared several centuries ago.
I am going to deal with some of the evidence that turns those popular works into pure fantasy, and show the fascinating direction of current scientific work on related topics.

Hi:
The science of plate tectonics (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plate_tectonics) did not exist until the late 1950s, when scientists began amassing evidence of it, beyond the work of Wegener (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#wegener) and others, particularly the evidence of seafloor spreading at the volcanic rifts in the mid-Atlantic and mid-Pacific ridges. Key evidence was the reversal of magnetic orientation of iron particles in the cooled magma on both sides of the rifts. Its pattern was like tiger stripes, which not only gave evidence that Earth’s magnetic pole flips, but that the rifts produce seafloor that expands toward the continents. When that seafloor reaches the continents, after up to a 200-million-year journey, moving toward them at the rate that fingernails grow, the heavier oceanic plates are subducted below the lighter continental plates, and get “recycled” into Earth’s mantle. That is the key dynamic of plate tectonics.
Those subduction zones are where the greatest earthquakes happen, such as the Ring of Fire (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ring_of_Fire) around the edges of the Pacific Ocean. Particularly impressive are seafloor mountain chains, especially the one that the Hawaiian Islands form the terminus of (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#hawaii1). Today’s satellite technology can measure the rates of movement of the tectonic plates, and when samples were brought up and tested from that Hawaiian mountain chain, their age confirmed the rates of movement that are being measured. Science is full of independent lines of evidence that converge, and when lines match up like that, and are easily reproduced, the findings are virtually impossible to fairly deny.
Plate tectonics is a relatively young science, and a recent finding (http://www.businessinsider.com/pangea-tethys-ocean-floor-mediterranean-2016-8) that part of the Tethyan seafloor may have not been subducted is tantalizing. That finding will not rewrite the geology textbooks, but shows how some plates, or portions of them, could get isolated and stay afloat. Earth’s surface is like a pot of boiling oatmeal, and the energy of radioactive decay is driving the process. Today, it is thought that in a billion years or so, Earth’s radioactivity will decline to the extent that plate tectonics will cease, Earth will become geologically dead, like the Moon and Mars are, and Earth will consequently lose its life. The oceans will boil away, and Earth will eventually be consumed by a growing Sun as it becomes a red giant. None of us needs to worry about that, but Earth’s life cycle is likely going to look something like that, and that is normal in our universe.
Measuring geomagnetism in ancient lava flows, dating them, and matching them up with nearby fossils, most of which were discovered long before radioactive dating or the science of plate tectonics, along with a great deal of other evidence, allowed maps such as these (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#carboniferous) to be constructed of Earth’s recent past, on the geological timescale. In that context, the fossil record makes more sense every year, new discoveries are constantly being made, and the journey of life on Earth is being told with ever-greater precision, although there will be no end to what will be discovered, and more paradigm shifts (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#introduction) are ahead of us. Today, there is plenty of work on true polar wander (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/True_polar_wander), which is helping scientists better understand some of the ancient evidence, but it is anything but a revival of Hapgood’s hypothesis.
With the finds in China over the past generation, there is no longer any reasonable doubt among scientists that birds (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#feathers) are dinosaurs, or are directly descended from them, if you want to say it that way, and many bird behaviors were dinosaur behaviors. Dinosaurs brooded their eggs (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Egg_incubation), lived in herds and rookeries (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rookery), and scientists can even tell what color their feathers were. It is amazing what scientists, with their increasingly sophisticated toolset (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#toolset), and ingenious ways of using them, are able to decipher about Earth’s past.
There is plenty of debate, but what has often happened is that new “crazy” ideas get attacked and discarded (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#pioneers), but many years later, as the evidence improved, the “crazy” ideas became embraced by scientists, with some scientists receiving posthumous recognition. Areas of the wacky fringe became the mainstream view, and could even become the next dogma. At least in some corners, scientists seem to be slowly learning to not get too attached to their theories, as they can die a quick death at the hand of new facts.
Where vested interests interfere (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#zpf1), however, science has been set back considerably. The physics behind the technologies that my friend was shown (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#underground) turns today’s physics textbooks into doorstops, but the people running the world (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc) keep a tight rein on such technologies. Scientists rarely lead the way to technological advances. The technological breakthroughs happen first, via inventors, and the scientists come along later, to describe how they work. That is the case today with Brown’s Gas (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/89-Free-energy-psychic-abilities-and-the-skeptics-and-debunkers?p=417&viewfull=1#post417), in that current scientific theory cannot explain how it does what it does, and enterprising scientists have run experimental results through mass spectrometers and scratch their heads, and that college kid who proposed a new quantum state (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/89-Free-energy-psychic-abilities-and-the-skeptics-and-debunkers?p=422&viewfull=1#post422) to explain it is doing the kind of work that Nobel Prizes are awarded for, but the political winds keep the lid on findings like his.
As I look back on my learning curve on these issues, it was a long, winding road, which began when I was knee-high (http://ahealedplanet.net/paths.htm#bookworm), continued into my scientific prodigy years, to my mystical awakening (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#silva), to that voice in my head (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#voice) changing my studies from science to business, to it then leading me to Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#voice2), to my wild ride with him (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=601&viewfull=1#post601), to years of study in my radicalized state (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page7?p=739&viewfull=1#post739), to the study that resulted in my site (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page9?p=809&viewfull=1#post809), after my second stint with Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/other.htm#sting), to another decade of study, increasingly scientific in nature and consciously comprehensive (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page11?p=841&viewfull=1#post841), in preparation for writing my big essay, and that study continues today, as I study for essay updates, increasingly fleshing out my work. I will be studying the topics in my big essay until I take my last breath. If nothing else, it keeps my brain active.
There is a definite method to my madness, and bringing up that latest Antarctic “city” rubbish (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page11?p=855&viewfull=1#post855) highlights an aspect of it: people whose awareness of scientific issues extends no further than some YouTube presentation are easily distracted by the latest tabloid headline or gossip. Over the years, scientifically illiterate people have challenged me on Global Warming (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/90-Global-Warming-Peak-Oil-and-related-topics?p=454&viewfull=1#post454), that there is even a geological timescale (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geologic_time_scale), and other topics, but they can’t even begin to credibly defend their positions, and can only parrot some YouTube rumor or vent their conspiracist “suspicions.” Such people can’t be part of what I am doing. People have to raise their games far above those levels, or my effort will only become more New Age/conspiracist chaff, and there is plenty of that out there already. I am doing something different (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir).

Hi:
Brian asked me to edit his last book, The Energy Solution Revolution (https://www.amazon.com/Energy-Solution-Revolution-Socio-Political-Suppression/dp/0979917646), but what he really wanted was proofreading, which I did. None of Brian’s free energy books were scholarly or very scientific in style, but were rather informal affairs. An email from me made it intact into his last book. While that email was a good one, it was just an email. Experiences like that further inspired me to write that big essay, to do those Epochal subjects justice.
I knew that the process of writing that essay would create new connections and realizations, I was not disappointed, and they keep coming. That year of creating that essay was a process of rereading many works that I had read before, obtaining new books as I went along, and it was a process of reading in bed, going to my computer to write, surfing for scientific papers, back to bed for more reading, and it was an iterative process. As I recall, the early life on Earth chapter (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#life) was when I began to hit my stride, and it took about two weeks per chapter to draft after that. I broke the Third and Fourth Epoch chapters in two when I saw how big they were getting. I vividly recall thinking, before I began writing that essay, that I could make my statement in 50 pages. What was I thinking? :) It became 100 early on, and I soon realized that it would be as large as it needed to be, and didn’t worry about it anymore.
When I would finish a chapter, the floor next to my desk was a pile of books that was not easy to step past, and when I finished one chapter, I cleaned up the pile, put it away, and began making a new stack as I drafted the next chapter. Sometimes, I would obtain a particularly important book while drafting a chapter, and would spend a day or two in bed reading it.
I began putting up chapter drafts as I wrote them (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=736868&viewfull=1#post736868). There were a few reasons for that, and one was to show aspiring writers some of the process, and initial drafts can be compared to what they look like today. Also, I have been plagiarized and impersonated on the Internet, and putting up chapter drafts as I wrote them would head off accusations that I plagiarized those plagiarists, not the other way around, which has happened to me before. To be stolen from, and then to be accused of being the thief, is one of the many bizarre ironies of my journey. My work is all my own. I had editorial help and other assistance from my pals, and they know who they are and they have my everlasting gratitude, but my work is all my own, and for better or worse, there is nothing else like it on Earth. It could be said to be Bucky (http://ahealedplanet.net/roots.htm#fuller) for the 21st century, and I do not mind that comparison, but I do not know of anything remotely like it on Earth today, which is why I wrote it.
I would not say that I was in a trance while writing that essay, but I was extremely focused on the process, which for me is saying something. I asked for a sabbatical from my job, after ten wearying years, largely to write that essay, and began the sabbatical in May 2013, when I began that 9,000 mile Bucket List road trip (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/81-Vignettes-from-my-journey-and-how-I-learned-what-I-did-and-came-to-my-approach/page3?p=249&viewfull=1#post249). It was a summer of study and play after that. I largely read Quantum Enigma (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#vonneumann) in my tent on my nephew’s first backpack trip with me (http://ahealedplanet.net/pics.htm#white2).
In early September 2013, I was informed that my job would not be waiting for me when I returned. My “sabbatical” had cost me the best paying job of my lifetime. My early estimate was that losing that job would cost a million dollars in lost income, but four years later, it will likely be a bit less, but when I lost my job, I decided that I had better make it worth my while, and I went over my time “budget” by several months. It was well worth it. I was able to finish that essay on my terms.
After I lost my job, I bore down and worked non-stop until May 2014 (my original deadline was January), when I had completed the first draft. I began looking for work, but did not find what I sought, and actually turned down the position that I have today, after also being offered it back in October 2013, by the man who hired me for that ten-year gig. I hiked, edited, and wrote during the summer of 2014, finally polishing off the essay and publishing it in August. I also edited my other essays from my 2002 site, and some written since then, over that summer, to align my site with my big essay. I don’t plan to significantly revise those essays again, but my big essay will receive updates for as long as I can do it, and a big one is coming, when I can find the time. If it turns out that I can’t get the time this year, I will have to make it, and my daily postings will likely suffer for it.
I’ll finish this post with a theme that grew as I wrote that big essay. During the past two years, since my last essay update, I have been probably reading on the science of human behavior and sociality more than any other topic. I am constantly reading up on astronomy, geology, molecular biology, and the latest hypotheses and evidence on the subjects that I write about, but the subject of human sociality and the nature of human societies in each Epoch of the human journey is probably where the biggest updates to my big essay will happen. I wrote about those subjects plenty in my big essay, and the update will largely only go deeper, but with new connections and further development of the paradigm that I am drawing.
Human sociality is adaptive, and I don’t entirely mean it in evolutionary terms (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adaptation), although that is a central meaning, but that human sociality adapts to its economic circumstances. See a hunter-gatherer who kills strangers on sight, and you are seeing a behaviorally modern human (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#leap) in the late Second Epoch, after the Golden Age of the Hunter-Gatherer (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#huntergatherer) ended, when the easy meat was driven to extinction (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#australianmegafauna). See a woman in a burka, and you are seeing a Third Epoch woman (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#womenstatus1), driven to being barefoot and pregnant by the economic climate of agrarian civilizations. See a modern woman who is a high-tech executive, and you are seeing a behaviorally modern human who is living in a late-Fourth Epoch society. In all instances, you are seeing the same biological creature, living off of different orders of magnitude of surplus energy (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochaltable), and the social changes were a result of that Epoch’s economic situation, not a cause of it.
This is a key understanding that very few people are willing or able to attain. The social approach to Epochal change is nonsensical (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialcircle), getting cause and effect backwards. You were not going to convince that hunter-gatherer man to not kill strangers on sight, until the energy surplus of the Third Epoch allowed for sedentary life (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#kebaran) and the many social changes that came with it. Similarly, if you had tried to convince Londoners in 1720 of the evils of slavery (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#southseas), they would have looked at you like you were insane. Only when the Fourth Epoch’s energy-driven machines made brute human labor obsolete did people develop the consciences that saw slavery as a barbaric evil, not a hallowed institution older than history, and only then were women on their way to liberation (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#demographic). Similarly, trying to convince the masses of the changes coming in the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#immediate), and even their desirability, is to invite attacks and ostracism, but I see no end to free energy newcomers who immediately proselytize to their social circles, and the best ones almost invariably return to tell me how relationships and even careers ended due to their proselytizing. I seek needles in haystacks and know it, and the people I seek need to raise their games far above social consciousness, which is based on survival (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialreason), and is all about benefitting the in-group (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ingroup) at the expense of the outgroup (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ingroup1). That is semi-sentient awareness and is not suitable for what I am doing. As Brian O sagely said, combined positive intention (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gcfocus) is the only path with a prayer.
The people I seek have to put away scientifically illiterate and naïve New Age (http://ahealedplanet.net/purpose.htm#newage) orientations, get past conspiracism (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#conspiracism) and other stunted frameworks (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#dominant) that trap their awareness, such as thinking that retail politics means anything important, and learn to think Epochally. The masses will only begin to awaken to the Fifth Epoch’s immense changes when they arrive, not before (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#brink), and that is normal (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#imagine). I seek the tiny fraction of humanity who can imagine it before it is here (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir), as a way to help manifest it. They have a lot of work to do, and I am here to help them.
Best,
Wade

Hi:
This series of posts that I began last June is coming to a close, as I come to the present day. I am going to make a series of posts that will summarize what I learned on my journey and how it informs my efforts today. The first will be on the subject of my big essay, on the role of energy in the universe (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#formation), the journey of life on Earth (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#life), and the human journey (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#path).
When I was 16, little did I know that with my mystical awakening (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#silva) and dreams of changing the energy industry (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#glimpse), I was dealing with the only two things that exist in our universe: energy and consciousness (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#energy1). Those became the two great studies of my life. But for both, it was not an armchair experience, but going out there and grappling with the issues in the real world, retreating, recovering, digesting, studying, and then going back at it again. I was involved in four mass movement (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#levels) energy efforts, between Dennis and Brian (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#adventures), after I watched my boss help steal Dennis’s company in Seattle (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=603&viewfull=1#post603), in which I learned my life’s most important lessons.
But when I had those dreams at age 16, if you had asked me to define energy’s role in our world, I doubt that the answer would have been much like how I see it today. In biology, energy has not really been emphasized until relatively recently (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#energysurplus). When I began studying economics and business (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#voice) a few years later, once again, energy’s role was not dealt with in a meaningful way, and I realized it back then, in that supply-and-demand graphs and the other artifices of economists were not very satisfying. It turns out that the dominant school of economics (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#chicagoschool), which focuses on money and markets, to the exclusion of energy and the real world, was founded by history’s greatest energy mogul. What a coincidence! :) No wonder economists are usually so ignorant about the real world (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#economists); they are not trained to think about it in the first place, and it is hard for me to believe that it was an accident. If people are not focused on what is important, they will never do anything important.
When I began my studies in my radicalized state (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page7?p=734&viewfull=1#post734), after my first stint with Dennis, while I began it with studying thermodynamics (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#industrial) and the technologies we were pursuing, those years were more of studying the work of Uncle Noam (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#chomsky) and friends (http://ahealedplanet.net/zinn.htm), the reality of the “news (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#big)” that I had digested every day for 20 years, the history I was not taught in school (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#more), the nature of the rackets (http://ahealedplanet.net/racket.htm), the imperial behavior of my great nation (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm), and building a vast mystical library.
It was not until I finished the 2002 version of my site and was introduced to Bucky Fuller’s work (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page11?p=841&viewfull=1#post841), then the Peak Oilers (http://ahealedplanet.net/scarcity.htm), that I really began to develop the comprehensive view that I have today of energy’s role in our world. Only in 2010 did I really begin to see the energy issue in Epochal terms (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#paradigm), by reading a book published by an oil company, of all things. Then, a lot began to fall together for me, and more pieces came together as I wrote my big essay. I am sure that my perspective will continue to evolve, but the energy issue is front-and-center today in a way that it was not when I wrote my energy racket essay (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm) in 2001 or so. I had the gist of it back then (http://ahealedplanet.net/visions.htm#how), but had yet to flesh out the contours of my developing paradigm.

Hi:
One prominent reason for this series of posts (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=603&viewfull=1) that I have worked on since last June is so that I might be able to just simply point people toward it, and for those I seek (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir), that will be plenty, and I don’t have to go through the ordeal of constantly discussing these issues. My journey has been full of pain, and for those I seek, I pray that I can shorten their learning curve, and they don’t have to go through what my fellow travelers and I endured (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#adventures). Not many people can survive on that high ground for long. Brian and Mr. Professor are dead, and their lives were shortened due to their adventures, and Mr. Professor’s blood is on my hands, no matter how those close to the situation always emphasized that I was not to blame. I still own a piece of his wrecked and shortened life (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#journey), and to an extent, I am carrying on on their behalf. That has not been easy to live with, and when I see gung-ho newbies acting like 18-year-old boys trying to prove their manhood on the battlefield (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm#business), I shudder and don’t want to watch. They just have to go out and play the hero, even when I have carefully crafted an approach that does not require such heroism.
The world does not need any more free energy martyrs, martyred more by their social circles and “allies (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#allies)” than by Godzilla (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc) and friends. I continually encounter people, virtually always men, who get all gung-ho and want to rush out and “do something,” to act the hero (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#messiah1), and if they even get five feet down the path, they are heading straight toward the many pitfalls that await, but they think that they are so talented/clever/courageous/lucky that they can sail over all of them on their way to Oz. When free energy aspirants declare themselves the Messiah (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#messiah) or Second Coming (http://ahealedplanet.net/conun.htm#grandeur), they are merely part of the wreckage that lines the path of this pursuit.
I found that most people really cannot understand, or they are unwilling to, overwhelmed by the magnitude of the issue. I have seen it all over the years (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level1). The coming of free energy will be the biggest event in the human journey (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5), and not many people have what it takes to have a grounded and productive reaction to the idea of it, much less help make the event manifest, and that is normal (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#imagine), and there is no use in judging the situation (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#judge1). My big essay is, to a great extent, a class in helping ground people who come to the field, even as bystanders. Being a bystander is OK, and being one can even help. I do not seek them, however, but seek people who will do something. :) But it is not going to be anything that risks their lives. Right now, I am the only person in my effort that is, and I have carefully designed what I am doing so that I am low on Godzilla’s radar (http://ahealedplanet.net/risk.htm#graphic). If people want to join a mass movement, get involved with free energy inventors, and sign up with a hero (http://ahealedplanet.net/lessons.htm#howmany), they can go see Greer (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page6?p=729&viewfull=1#post729) or Dennis, although Dennis has been forbidden to ever try it again in the USA and he is over 70 now, in his life’s twilight, even as he still goes at it as hard as ever.
It is wearying to constantly have my work compared to Greer’s, or have people think that I promote whatever it is that Dennis does these days. I wish them the best, but there are more than seven billion of us on the planet and plenty of room for more than one approach to this thorny conundrum (http://ahealedplanet.net/conun.htm#summary). There is not a greater puzzle on Earth to solve, and others can try with my blessings, but I am taking an approach that has literally been a lifetime in coming, and I am not going to settle for less than what I think might have a chance to help make a dent. No more blood and guts for me, no thank you. No more approaches that don’t stand a chance (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#approaches).
That is a preamble to how my perception changed over the years, as far as who could really help make it happen. I began to discover only a few months after meeting Dennis how worthless people working for a paycheck were, when I saw all those “loyal” employees cheer as Dennis had his company stolen (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#theft), and by the end of the Ventura experience, I had that lesson in spades (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#steal1). I also thought that inventors were heroes (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#glimpse), in my youthful naïveté, and would be key members of any successful effort, but they are also worthless, selling to the highest bidder, and some even dream of getting the Golden Handcuffs (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#bearden). I began waking up to that reality during that summer of 1986, after Dennis had his company stolen, and Mr. Inventor showed his true colors (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/81-Vignettes-from-my-journey-and-how-I-learned-what-I-did-and-came-to-my-approach?p=209&viewfull=1#post209) soon enough. I eventually came to realize that he was a typical inventor, in it for the money and fame, not really to help. Scientists are close cousins to inventors (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#theorists), and have similar levels of personal integrity, although I have found some diamonds among the zircons.
Dennis is the prime mover of mass movements (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level10) like nothing else that I have seen or heard of. He is unique on Earth (http://ahealedplanet.net/lessons.htm#howmany), and has caused Godzilla plenty of sleepless nights, but one man can’t do it alone (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#jones), or with a handful of assistants. I know what it is like to carry those spears. It is one hell of a learning experience, if you can survive it.
When Brian joined the fray and played the Paul Revere of Free Energy (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#revere) for five years, interacting with the very top of the world’s scientific, academic, and “progressive” organizations before we traded notes, and all that he encountered were crazed reactions of denial and fear (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#reactions), Brian began openly wondering if humanity is a sentient species (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#sentience), and I sadly understood. Scientists are usually worse than worthless for this pursuit, erecting irrational arguments (of superficial sophistication (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level3)) against the possibility or desirability of free energy.
I watched Dennis go after channel-surfing couch potatoes (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page7?p=736&viewfull=1#post736), and wondered what he thought that he would accomplish. Maybe he would find one-in-a-million that way, but what a wide net to throw. I watched Dennis get swarmed with billionaires when he was riding high, and I never heard of one who parted with a dollar. They were only making a survey on how they could undermine or coopt the effort when the time was right (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#oleary), as Brian also discovered, as did Greer. I doubt that there are any active rich philanthropists on Earth today (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#philanthropy1). It is one of the innumerable fictions out there (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#rich), and that one is fostered by those “philanthropists” themselves, kind of like child molesters becoming foster parents and pillars of the community. There are extremely few “clean” fortunes that have been amassed on Earth, if any. All organizations on Earth (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#beseeching1) that I know of have been approached, numerous times, on this issue, and denial and fear (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level5) are the most common reactions, by far.
That group that I envision (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir) does not yet exist on Earth. Can I help build it? We will see. If my efforts contribute 0.001% of what it will take to usher in the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5) and move humanity away from the edge of the abyss (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#spaceshipearth), it will have been a life well spent, and I won’t regret the outcome, whatever it is. But it is going to take highly unusual and rare people (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=308&viewfull=1#post308) to give my plan a chance of success. I know that I seek needles in haystacks (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialcircle), and since impatience is my Achilles heel (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#reading), this path has been a “blessing,” that sees me get to work on it every day. :)
Best,
Wade

Hi:
This post will be on how my perceptions of how it can happen changed, and that, perhaps more than more than any other lesson that I learned, came through a long and winding road. When I first had that dream of changing the energy industry at age 16 (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#glimpse), it was little more than a bright idea, and I really have to think hard to recall just what I was thinking back then. It was a rather vague idea of changing humanity’s energy consumption patterns, reducing pollution, and making the playing field fairer. There was nothing practical about any of it, but just schoolboy musings. Exactly who and how were nothing more than fuzzy ideas back then, but I held the dream, and that set me on my path.
When I had my first existential crisis and that voice spoke to me (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#voice), I had no idea that you could study business in college, and only had a dim idea of what bookkeeping and accounting were, as I only heard about accountants on April 15th when tax returns were due, and a childhood friend took a bookkeeping class in high school, which I thought was something like home economics and other classes that were kind of cop-out classes, have an easy time, and meet girls. I suppose that taking it easy has never been in my DNA.
Then I began a romance with capitalism and business, as the next four years of school were about studying business, and I ate it up in my idealism. But I was also a mystical (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#my) and non-materialistic vegetarian (http://ahealedplanet.net/veggie.htm), and boy, what I was heading for, joining the corporate ranks. The first four years of my career were my life’s unhappiest years (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=406928&viewfull=1#post406928). But worse than the urban hell that I was thrust into, or the materialistic chases of my peers, was the nagging notion that my profession provided no benefit to society. I tried to believe in it for a time, but was gradually disillusioned (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#believing), and several years later, the worthlessness of my profession became clear (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#getting). But between those two phases, I met Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#voice2) in one of the many larger-than-life events of my journey. I walked right into the greatest attempt ever made (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#run) to bring alternative energy to the American marketplace, and my wild ride began. Three years later, my life was shattered and I was radicalized (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#mr). I would never see the world the same way again, and human behavior could never surprise me again.
I then hit the books (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page7?p=734&viewfull=1#post734), and hard, for the next several years, and during one month I wrote 400 pages of material and published my first site (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page9?p=805&viewfull=1#post805), just before my second stint with Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/other.htm#sting). My strong suspicions quickly became a virtual certainty during that prison-risking stint, and I forever after had no interest in the inventor’s/businessman’s path to free energy. It is one of the many dead-end approaches to the problem (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#approaches), but is the dominant path in the USA, in the heart of capitalism. The entire free energy field has been in a state of arrested development (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#arrested) for longer than I have been alive.
I then spent four out of the next 5.5 years performing the study and writing (including hiring an editor) that resulted in my 2002 site, which is largely how it stands today. These parts of my site (http://ahealedplanet.net/home.htm#personal) were largely written before 2003, and nearly everything above it was written afterward, with my big essay capping it off, and my future efforts will be almost exclusively devoted to updating the big essay, like a college textbook, and my forum (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page9?p=805&viewfull=1), where I plan to develop that choir (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir). From 2003 until today, my work has been consciously comprehensive (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm), whereas before that, I was groping around, being a comprehensivist who didn’t know it.
As fate would have it, in 2003, I joined my last mass movement effort, when I accepted Brian’s invitation (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page11?p=844&viewfull=1#post844) to help him found the New Energy Movement (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#nem). I was already far past the businessman’s orientation, and the NEM experience would be when I finally realized that no mass movement effort (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level10) had a prayer. The very basis for all mass movements – mutual self-interest – ensures that such efforts will either self-destruct from self-seeking (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#burn) or will easily collapse with just the slightest application of a little organized suppression (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#hurdles). Only combined positive intention (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gcfocus) has a chance. Social maneuvering takes a back seat when everybody is focused on the goal.
I was forever finished with those paths of failure, although Dennis has doggedly kept at it (http://ahealedplanet.net/paths.htm#ftc), as did Brian, and I rejected their subsequent offers to have me help rebuild their efforts, although I still carried Brian’s spears (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#intro) for a few years before he died, and I began doing interviews (http://ahealedplanet.net/public.htm#interviews), partly due to Brian’s influence (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page11?p=850&viewfull=1#post850).
In 2007, after my monster of a midlife crisis (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page10?p=822&viewfull=1#post822) finally passed, with Dennis’s inadvertent help (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#midlife), I began studying with what became my big essay in mind, but it was not until 2010 that I really began to understand the Epochal nature (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochaltable) of free energy, by reading a book published by an oil company (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#paradigm), of all things. But it was not until beginning to write my big essay that I truly came to realize that all of humanity’s previous Epochs were founded by a relative or literal handful of individuals, and for the First Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal1), they weren’t even people yet. The First Epoch led to people. But the development of stone tools (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#stonetool1) and the control of fire (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#fire1) were likely invented once, and then duplicated, just like many of life’s critical innovations (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#keyevents1). Invention and imitation has been the path of humanity’s technological progress.
For the Second Epoch, Homo sapiens was likely only comprised of several thousand individuals, and the Founder Group that left Africa and conquered Earth (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#founderexit) was likely only a few hundred people. After all the easy meat had been hunted to extinction (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#australianmegafauna), in a few places on Earth conducive to it (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#kebaran), people learned to domesticate plants, and that was likely the achievement of women, as an adjunct to their gathering duties. Those largely matrilineal cultures became humanity’s most peaceful preindustrial societies (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#patrilineal1). In each place where plants were domesticated, and later, animals (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#goat), with the exception of the dog (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#dogs), it was likely only a few people, or perhaps even one, who hit on the idea of raising crops.
Those Epochal Events all happened before recorded history, so it is a little speculative, as far as how many people founded those Epochs, but not that speculative. The idea that it was only a relative or literal few is the leading view today. For the present Epoch, however, there is not any dispute. Successfully using coal for commercial smelting operations was invented by one man (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#coke), and the modern steam engine was invented by one man (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#steamengine1). Only two men were responsible for tapping the power of fossil fuels in a way that founded the Industrial Epoch. For those inventions, the preludes to them are readily discernable, and their ideas were only building on ideas and practices already in circulation, as deforested England (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#domesday) turned to coal out of desperation (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#coaluse) several centuries earlier, and Europeans were already riding an unprecedented energy wave (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#watermill2) that saw them easily conquer humanity (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#sailboat2). But those two men made the Epochal innovations, although neither of them suspected what they were setting in motion, as was the case with the founders of each Epoch.
Also, as I wrote my big essay, I realized that the changes that each Epochal Event brought would have been incomprehensible to those living before them (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#imagine). It was the process of writing that essay when I could see, in paradigmatic fashion, how doomed the idea was that some mass movement could make free energy happen, and people could proselytize to their social circles (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialcircle) to gather up that mass of people who could make it happen. I long ago realized that those paths were doomed to failure and wrecked lives, but it was not until writing that big essay that the pattern revealed itself to me for all previous Epochal Events, and there is no reason to believe that making the Fifth Epoch happen will be any different. Sure, we have shows such as Star Trek to give us hints (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#visions), but making the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5) happen is going to fall to relatively few people.
Because the global elite (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc) already made the technological breakthroughs (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#underground), with a little help from “captured” ET technology, and they actively suppress independent efforts to develop it (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#make), it will take more than a few heroic (http://ahealedplanet.net/lessons.htm#howmany) people. Been there, done that (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#adventures). My choir idea is at least a decade old, but why a choir (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir) idea might be one of the few ways to make a dent, and might be the critical missing ingredient, did not become entirely clear to me until I wrote my big essay. I began my essay knowing that “aha” moments were ahead of me, and those were the biggest ones of writing my big essay. Writing that essay was a joy for me, and what I expected to happen in fact did, although exactly what I would learn was a mystery when I began.
Best,
Wade

An earnest question or two: "Why do you think it is that your idea is not sweeping this forum, if not the world?"
"Why is your message having difficulty gaining traction?"
Your main point is easy enough to grasp, and makes perfect sense. Is it the comprehensive nature of the work, the need to have so much general knowledge in so many diverse fields and in the right order of pertinence and without falling for obvious mistruths or exaggerations?
Could it be that the handful of people you seek have certain "talents" and "experience" beyond the retention of this curriculum?
Other than the intellectual prong, do you envision an action plan?
Is study enough? Or is the action the study?

Hi Ernie (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1135370&viewfull=1#post1135370):
As my previous post (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page12?p=862&viewfull=1#post862) pointed out, it took me forty years of adventures and study to arrive at my approach, and I was the most eager learner and highly talented at it (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/70-Distinguishing-the-wheat-from-the-chaff-and-my-life-s-journey?p=102&viewfull=1#post102). My experience is that these understandings are not easy to achieve, even when people want to understand, and few do. There is certainly some mental horsepower required to digest the comprehensive perspective that I am imparting, and literally a few minutes before I sat down and saw your post, I read this passage in The Monkey’s Voyage (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page11?p=855&viewfull=1#post855):
“Given the nature of historical evidence, it is not surprising that good evolutionary biologists often are notable sponges, sifters, and synthesizers of information. As the archetype, we have Darwin, who absorbed encyclopedic knowledge of taxonomy, animal breeding, anatomy, embryology, geology, the fossil record, and (of course) biogeography to construct his argument for evolution. No one piece of evidence was entirely convincing, and some of it, such as the sudden appearance of many animal phyla in the fossil record, seemed to contradict his views, but he didn’t let that blind him to the bigger picture. More recently, evolutionists like Ernst Mary, George Gaylord Simpson, and Stephen Jay Gould, among others, have followed in this tradition. Those three were all great sponges, sifters, and synthesizers.”
That passage could just as easily apply to what I have been doing since I was knee-high (http://ahealedplanet.net/paths.htm#bookworm). I have stated very clearly what my plan is (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#numbers): get enough people with the right stuff and a perspective that is comprehensive enough to keep their eyes on the ball, and then develop, build, and give away a publicly usable free energy device. And a handful of people cannot accomplish that in this environment. With anything less than thousands, who have the right stuff (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=308&viewfull=1#post308), which I cannot overemphasize, the effort will be suicidal. You have candidly admitted that you don’t have the right stuff, and you get high marks for such honesty. Almost everybody thinks that they have the right stuff, and maybe they do, for shuffling through their lives, but making the biggest event in the human journey (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5) manifest is not something that the masses are going to help with. I learned that the hard way.
I have found that for the very few people not in denial (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level1) or fear (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level5), when the subject of free energy is raised, they want to take some shortcut, to do something, and their “plan” is invariably the same paths of disaster (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#approaches) that I know so well. I found that their “bright ideas” stemmed from inexperience, naïveté, and often a lack of personal integrity (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page6?p=708&viewfull=1#post708), which is all too normal. Probably the most important barrier to comprehension is people’s inability to shake their social consciousness (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialreason) and in-group orientation (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ingroup), confusing comfort with sentience (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#sentience1). They are the ones who proselytize to their social circles, and most of the best come back to me and tell me what a disaster that was, with wrecked relationships, ostracism, and even careers ended.
I have yet to see even one person who has gotten the message and who is singing the song at a choral level. Some are in training for it, but not one person has yet stepped up and been able or willing to discuss any aspect of my big essay, in anything approaching a comprehensive perspective. Ilie has hit some notes (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/74-A-tale-of-Energy-Living-Off-the-Grid?p=129&viewfull=1#post129), as have some others, but these are the early days, and all of the big changes began like this. And those who think that the first half of my big essay (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#midpoint) is irrelevant do not yet understand. Maybe I am going to have to approach scientists, but they are the worst people to approach, in ways, as Brian O discovered long ago (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#reactions). There are some diamonds out there (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page6?p=738&viewfull=1#post738), and maybe it can only be a bunch of polymaths for what I am doing, but I hope not, or my effort is going to be a lot harder.
This is just more evidence that I seek needles in haystacks (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialcircle). Learning patience (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#reading) is the great goal of my life, and working at something for more than forty years and counting, to perhaps never live to see the budding fruit of my efforts, is a great way to learn patience. :)
So, the action part, the singing, has not happened yet. After enough know the song well enough to sing in harmony, then the action of attracting enough who will do something will commence. That is at least a decade out, and maybe longer, unless some kind of miracle happens. I wish that others were doing what I am, and I would ally with them, but for now, I am the only person on Earth that I know of who is doing this, as Brian (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=918852&viewfull=1#post918852) and Dennis quickly realized. For now, it is a very lonely path (http://ahealedplanet.net/camelot.htm#lonely), as my fellow travelers also know, but my little gang is slowly growing.

Hi:
My Epochal perspective of the free energy situation, which was many years in coming, is no news to the Global Controllers (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc) and friends. They understand very well what the coming of free energy (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5) means: the end of their dark games (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#elitedisappear). While the masses are oblivious, the GCs are keenly aware of the reality and implications of free energy, and the billion dollars offered to Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#make), and the two billion offered to Greer, are just part of their impressive bag of tricks (http://ahealedplanet.net/risk.htm#graphic).
It is easy to understand why garage tinkerers and “bright idea (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page10?p=828&viewfull=1#post828)” people are “only” offered a few million to go away, while a Dennis or Greer were offered orders of magnitude more. The global elites’ entire ballgame is at stake, and movers and shakers like Dennis and Greer are the dangerous ones. Free energy scientists and inventors are a dime a dozen, and most never come up with anything worth suppressing, and are usually left alone. But when they start doing what Sparky Sweet did (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ideal), then they begin to get the kind of attention that they wish they didn’t receive (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page11?p=847&viewfull=1#post847), if they survive the experience (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#deadinventors). The closer you come to the market, the more active the interference will be. Dennis began to discover that in Seattle (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#seattle1).
I have encountered free energy newbies who literally thought that getting the Golden Handcuffs was like winning the lottery. Fools.
In summary, part of learning my lessons is realizing that Godzilla and friends were way ahead of me, and that there is nothing that I can do about that but put one foot ahead of the other and do what I can. If I can find enough people with the right stuff (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=308&viewfull=1#post308), my plan will easily work, and Godzilla is betting that I won’t. We’ll see.

Hi:
One reason why I emphasize a comprehensive perspective (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#developing) is that so much more makes sense that way. Otherwise, it is easy to get lost in the weeds. That book that I am reading, The Monkey’s Voyage (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page12?p=863&viewfull=1#post863), emphasizes that scientists can get so lost in their pet theories that they can’t see the forest from the trees, as they either never leave the shade of their favorite trees (often the first one that they encountered) or decry the worst specimens of trees that point to a different kind of forest than they want to see. Einstein said that he no respect for people who picked the weakest part of a board and kept drilling holes through it. It is easy to get seduced by one piece of evidence, especially when it conforms to our self-serving beliefs, and stay in a delusional state. The best scientists try to never get too attached to any theory. The most robust scientific findings have several independently converging lines of evidence that are reproducible. When I update my big essay, I will discuss chapters of The Monkey’s Voyage that deal with molecular clock studies (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#molecularclock) and how they have become more reliable, once the constant timekeeping assumption was jettisoned. Different genes, and different parts of genes, have different rates of mutation, as do different species and classes of species, and today, the best molecular studies almost perfectly agree with the best fossil dates, out to about 400 million years, and then something goes awry, as molecular dates become much older than fossil dates, and scientists are not sure why.
Science has suffered from over-specialization for a long time (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#specialists), and has only recently begun emerging from it. When I began to dive into the books back in 1989 (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page7?p=739&viewfull=1#post739), little did I know that I was embarking on the comprehensivist’s path. The comprehensive (AKA multidisciplinary, generalist, big picture, interdisciplinary) perspective also applies to many areas outside of science. When I read Bucky state that all politics is all about who gets what proportion of a society’s scarce economic pie (http://ahealedplanet.net/roots.htm#politics), it made perfect sense, and forever after, I saw all politics as just reshuffling the deck of scarcity in favor of whoever controlled the political process, and all retail politics is a charade. That comprehensive perspective also allowed me to eventually see through the deck-shuffling games of economists (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#economists), who abandon the real world in favor of largely bogus social theories, such as the idea that market participants are all rational and independent actors, not herd animals, in favor of their patrons, of course. It also became easy to see through the in-group conceits of historians (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#objectivity). Conflicts of interest and lack of personal integrity (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page6?p=708&viewfull=1#post708) are at the roots of all such behaviors. People readily sell their souls for a full belly, and especially professionals.
The truly important decisions on Earth are made in completely unaccountable privacy by the global elite (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc), and you would not recognize their names. They operate in the deep shadows. That was one of many lessons of my journey. They can stay in the shadows for all I care. If I can find enough people with the right stuff (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=308&viewfull=1#post308), the global elite will not be able to stop us, will slink away, they can do so with my blessings, and they might even like the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5), even though their dark path (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#serving) power games will become obsolete (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#elitedisappear). They can’t be negotiated with; they can only be made obsolete. I treat them like a force of nature, and I don’t venture where hurricanes, earthquakes, and tornadoes dominate the scene, thinking that I am clever/lucky/noble enough to avoid them, but I encounter no end of free energy newcomers who think that they can, like 18-year-old boys before their first battle (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm#business). When people deny the global elite’s very existence, or think that the global elite means people such as Bill Gates or the sitting American president (http://ahealedplanet.net/journey.htm#presidents), it betrays ignorance, naïveté (http://ahealedplanet.net/roots.htm#naive), and fear of understanding how our world really works, and that denial (http://ahealedplanet.net/radleft.htm#religion) and obtuseness can come from some of the smartest people that you will ever meet. Also, those who focus on the global elite to the exclusion of all else (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#weakness) are deluded in the other direction, and fearful paranoia is one of their most salient characteristics. If people ever get out of their armchairs and actually do anything of importance in those realms, they will encounter Godzilla’s minions. If they survive the experience, it will be educational. I try to keep free energy newbies away from those areas to the best of my ability, but some people just have to go find out the hard way. When I encountered people more experienced than me in these areas, I sat at their feet, lapping it up, and happy that I did not learn those lessons how they did.
A comprehensive perspective requires at least some scientific literacy (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=313&viewfull=1#post313). Otherwise, people are easily distracted by the circus, and those recent emails about some “city (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page11?p=856&viewfull=1#post856)” in Antarctica are typical of the New Age (http://ahealedplanet.net/purpose.htm#newage)/conspiracist (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#conspiracism) chaff of the fringes, that easily dupes the gullible and scientifically illiterate. It is a constant issue that I face when people approach me, and scientific literacy and discernment seem to be the only antidote.
That comprehensive perspective allowed me to see what all of the dominant ideologies (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#dominant), AKA the “isms,” had in common: scarcity, fear (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#coming), and egocentric in-group conditioning (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ingroup). All of them are barriers to sentience and clever justifications for treating outgroups terribly (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ingroup1). People are almost without exception addicted to their in-group ideologies (http://ahealedplanet.net/hooked.htm#misinformation), as their in-group status is a key to their survival, or so they think. Almost nobody on Earth today has what it takes to escape their conditioning, but those are the people I seek (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=309&viewfull=1#post309). My work is not suitable for those in thrall to their in-group conditioning, which is nearly all of humanity today, which is why I know that I seek needles in haystacks (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialcircle).

Hi:
The absolutely most important lesson of my journey was this: Love is the answer.
It is a corollary to this lesson (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page6?p=708&viewfull=1#post708): Personal integrity is the world’s scarcest commodity.
Love has always been the answer (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#greatest), but in our world of scarcity and fear (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#coming), almost nobody ever achieves it to any meaningful degree. I do not want to wax too biblically, but many are called and few are chosen. Another way to say it is that I am looking for needles in haystacks (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialcircle), those few whose hearts are in the right place (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=308&viewfull=1#post308), those overgrown Boy and Girl Scouts (http://ahealedplanet.net/paths.htm#scouts), for whom doing the helpful thing is more important than their earthly reward for doing it. What attracted me to Dennis and Brian were their great hearts (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#attracted), not their genius, talent, or fame. And people’s hearts in action, when the chips are down, is when you get to see what they are really made of. Many can talk a good game, but almost nobody has ever walked the talk.
The greatest miracle that I ever witnessed (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page5?p=689&viewfull=1#post689) was when I overcame the desire to kill people (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#it) and instead sacrificed my life (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#mortgage). What impressed me the most about Roads’s little journey into the future was the stark contrast between those who chose love (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?32399-A-Future-Earth&p=672748&viewfull=1#post672748) and those who didn’t (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?32399-A-Future-Earth&p=672115&viewfull=1#post672115). Only a few months after meeting Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=604&viewfull=1#post604), I saw how the semi-sentient, social consciousness (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialreason), self-interested masses can’t distinguish the psychopaths from the saints (that goes back to “Give us Barabbas!” and before). It blew me away initially, but I eventually understood that the masses see everything in the light of their self-interest, and the dark path’s (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#serving) Pied Pipers of Doom can almost effortlessly stampede the masses in any direction that they want, by playing to their self-interest. I saw it in no uncertain terms in Ventura, as Ken Hodgell (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/81-Vignettes-from-my-journey-and-how-I-learned-what-I-did-and-came-to-my-approach?p=206&viewfull=1#post206) easily duped people, including Mr. Engineer (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/81-Vignettes-from-my-journey-and-how-I-learned-what-I-did-and-came-to-my-approach?p=208&viewfull=1#post208) and Mr. Researcher (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#espionage), with his Mr. Rogers act. I performed the most heroic act of my life, to only have my mother campaign against me (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=400492&viewfull=1#post400492) for years afterward, as she worshipped the evil system that fed her. My fellow travelers all described similar situations. What I experienced was normal, if a bit larger than life. Those attacks from a former girlfriend (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page3?p=622&viewfull=1#post622) were only a gentle preview of what was ahead of me, as I learned my life’s greatest lessons.
The masses are not going to be any help for making the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5) manifest, and only inexperienced, undiscerning, naïve, or stubborn people think any differently. And there is no use in judging that situation (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#judge1); it is just what it is. Until abundance is dropped in their laps, the masses will not even begin to comprehend, and that is normal (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#brink).
The people I seek are going to carry the ball, because humanity is currently unable to, in their egocentric pursuits of survival and addiction, in a world where dark pathers reign (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc), enabled and even cheered by their victims.
Best,
Wade

Hi:
A big lesson that I learned was that the ways that New Agers (http://ahealedplanet.net/purpose.htm#newage) and others are trying to “wake up” humanity are naïve and unworkable. I’ll not deny that there is something to Rupert Sheldrake’s work (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rupert_Sheldrake), and the “skeptics’” getting him banned from TED (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page2?p=382&viewfull=1#post382) for his relatively tame challenges to materialism (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#mystical1) is standard “skepticism (http://ahealedplanet.net/dennis.htm#friends)” at work, as they defend their religion (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page2?p=384&viewfull=1#post384) with the fervor of Dominican inquisitors.
But one New Age canard has passed into the lexicon, called the hundredth monkey effect (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hundredth_monkey_effect), based on a false rendering of events. Actually, that real learning event with macaques is a valid lesson on primate social learning (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#rhesus1), and like with humans, the young learn easier, while the older ones are more ossified in their thinking. As I mentioned earlier, invention and imitation (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page12?p=862&viewfull=1#post862) is the path of humanity’s technological progress, as it was with those macaques learning a new energy acquisition technique.
For every Epochal Event in the human journey (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochaltable), tapping the new energy source came first, and the economic/political/social/biological changes came later, as a consequence of tapping that new energy source, not a cause. The highest message ever given to humanity is “love the enemy (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#enemy),” or stated in modern jargon, “there is no outgroup.” But it was not until energy-driven machines began replacing brute human labor that that hallowed institution of slavery became a barbaric relic. Virtually nobody on Earth would have been receptive to “slavery is evil” arguments (other than perhaps the slaves :) ) in 1720 (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#southseas). With the rising standard of living of industrialization (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#demographic), people could afford to have more of a conscience, just like with the previous Epochs.
Sociality is adaptive, and new economic situations allow for the freedom to change, not the other way around. If I had been born in an agrarian society, the odds of me doing what I have done with my life, and the understandings achieved, would have been insanely long. Thinking that we can sit and meditate ourselves into the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5) is deluded. We live in physical reality for a reason. Humanity has had the same biological equipment for tens of thousands of years (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page11?p=858&viewfull=1#post858), maybe even since Homo sapiens first appeared on the evolutionary scene about 200,000 years ago (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#sapiens), so there is not going to be some magical awakening happening anytime soon, through some kind of clever ideological patter.
Similarly, I see people stuck in retail politics and social consciousness all the time, really, almost without exception. Even Brian and Dennis were largely stuck there, although Brian admitted at his life’s end what a dead-end retail politics was (http://ahealedplanet.net/roots.htm#politics), and he would have known (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#udall).
So, I am not really picking on New Agers. Their games are just another aspect of Fourth Epoch sociality. There is really nothing “new” about the New Age, but it is just a recycling of aspects of the current and former ages, and New Agers are stuck in their Epoch like the rest. The potential pitfall with New Age stuff is thinking that it is some kind of key to unlock the doorway to the Fifth Epoch. It isn’t. People are not going to suddenly “wake up” to the evil realities of our Epoch. They are all too evident, for those with eyes to see. About 99.999% of humanity is not going to begin to see past this Epoch until the means for the next one are delivered to them (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#brink). It has always been this way.
There are glimpses (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#visions) of the Fifth Epoch to be found in mystical material and fiction, and Michael Roads’s (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?32399-A-Future-Earth&p=672748&viewfull=1#post672748) is one of the best. But we won’t get there by just dreaming about it, coming up with clever jargon, wearing “mystical” haircuts, and the like.

Wade, Post #6833 : “...There are glimpses of the Fifth Epoch to be found in mystical material and fiction, and Michael Roads’s is one of the best. But we won’t get there by just dreaming about it, coming up with clever jargon, wearing “mystical” haircuts, and the like...”
I have to admit, I’m slightly intrigued by what a “mystical” haircut is. I won’t post pics. Though I was tempted to search.
On a sadly more sober note – I just read this short one from Jon Rappoport :
https://jonrappoport.wordpress.com/2017/02/22/breaking-infowars-and-natural-news-under-attack/
So much for a free press. As regular viewers of this thread know all too well, it’s no more free than the ‘free market.’
Also not free – mainstream healthcare, which is currently subjecting someone close to me to very expensive chemotherapy for stage 3 cancer, after a late diagnosis because the mainstream hospital should have noticed, but failed to detect it, in a mammogram many months prior. There’s the destructive effect on the immune system, the loss of hair, the strong recommendation of barbaric surgery. The dark ages of medicine, for profit. She is aware of alternatives, and aware of how the practitioners get hounded by the FDA. If I wasn’t on a public forum I might be swearing in a rage. As it is, I am almost numb. It is a murderous and/or violent system.
A racket : http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm
One of the pioneers you mention in that essay is Rife. I recall that coming across the Rife machine was a result of one of the earliest internet searches I did, probably around two decades ago. Just a whippersnapper. Stumbled into it and found it magical. It resonated. There was this whole other world where solutions and cures existed. A realm of imagination and potential, supressed yet glistening.
Re : any of the above – and it’s a reason I chose to write, given some of the recent posts – I don’t bother myself with how many people contribute to your thread Wade. We are all sovereign individuals and you have said countless times that you (Wade) would gladly fuse your efforts with people doing similar work, and if people feel your work misses the mark they are free to start their own blogs and forums.
Wouldn’t it be amazing if there were a hundred blogs and forums publishing every day on free energy, in ways that discussed the spiritual, scientific, historical, economic, sociological (and so on and so forth) implications. All underpinned by the continual and gentle Post-it note-to-each-other that love is the key.
http://i1267.photobucket.com/albums/jj550/DoodlemakerUK/Free%20Energy%20Sticky_zpsuizjnepc.jpg
Whether you have 10 contributors or 1000, I come here with regularity - just grateful this conversation even exists. This thread is like a jewel in an expansive ocean of information. Focused in its intent. And not surprisingly it seems, going by Rappoport’s link, the nefarious controllers of the world continue in their efforts to keep consciousness in the dark. One way it can go is for people to awaken in reaction to the pressures. A potential positive. But it still feels like a game of polarities. More slime oozing to the surface, more muscle honed to clear and transmute it. But there is a danger, as we all know, of chasing our own or someone else’s demons until we chase ourselves into the ground.
What drew me onto posting here at Avalon years ago was seeing Ilie’s thread : What technologies, activities or concepts will be made obsolete by Free Energy
http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?29372-What-technologies-activities-or-concepts-will-be-made-obsolete-by-Free-Energy&p=297739&viewfull=1#post297739
My eyes nearly popped out of my head. It was exactly the kind of thread that made me want to dive in. I remember thinking “People are actually having this conversation.” How beautiful, and necessary. A meditation on the goodness we are capable of. The building of a dream, instead of accepting an inheritance of a nightmare.
It is so rare. And so important. To step up and be creators. Different people are doing it in different ways. And these threads create a portal for writers to gather intent and exploration.
Thanks for being here. All of you who care enough, in spite of our flaws, to wish daily for a healed planet. A world of love, and truth. Balance and grace. All who care enough to imagine it.
I’m grateful you exist.
Thank you
Peace to one and all

Hi:
During my journey and studies, the nature/nurture issue was often prominent. Very practically, in a world of scarcity and fear (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#coming), not many people are going to connect with their hearts in a meaningful way. Some “mystical” material says that it is “supposed” to be this way, while others say that this reality is one big mistake, and journeys such as Roads’s show that whether we live in heaven on Earth (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?32399-A-Future-Earth&p=672748&viewfull=1#post672748) or hell on Earth (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?32399-A-Future-Earth&p=672115&viewfull=1#post672115) while we are incarnated is our choice. I know which I prefer. :)
The fact is that for each successive Epoch of the human journey (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochaltable), societies became more humane. Chimps readily commit genocide (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#coalitionary) and have lethal hierarchical politics, as everybody vies for power. But monkeys also do it (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#rhesus1), so these proclivities are deeply baked into the human animal, but when bonobos had their food supply double, the females led a change in social organization and created societies that were no longer run by males, and bonobo societies (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#bonobo1) are more peaceful than any human society has ever been. Similarly, when the easy meat was killed off (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#australianmegafauna) and in places conducive to it (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#kebaran), women began raising crops, those societies became matrilineal (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#patrilineal1), and those were humanity’s most peaceful preindustrial societies.
In the Second Epoch, once the easy meat was gone and fierce territorialism resumed after that brief Golden Age of the Hunter Gatherer (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#huntergatherer), slaughtering one’s neighbors became the norm once again, like chimps. Those societies murdered their elderly (they did it as “humanely” as possible), for those few fortunate to live to a ripe old age, and Stone Age hunter-gatherer societies were the most violent of the human journey (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#deathrate), with about a third of all men dying violently. Today, scientists think that for many thousands of years, violence is what kept hunter-gatherer societies living within their carrying capacities, as the herds would be culled through violence. Scientists also surmise that human violence was also gradually culled from humanity in that phase of the human journey, as dangerous men, serial killers most of all, would be killed off by their societies, through either banishment or execution.
One of the most fascinating studies of all of my years of scholarliness is what scientists learned from studying the relict groups of humanity. DNA testing has established the migration pattern of the Founder Group that left Africa (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#founderexit) between 60,000 and 50,000 years ago. The south-Saharan hunter-gatherers, Negritos (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#negrito), Australian aborigines, and New Guinea highlanders and their neighbors are all relict populations from the original migration (actually, those south-Saharan hunter-gatherers never left), and have provided a fascinating window into the human past. Just like our gorilla (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#migratehome) and chimp (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#chimpsplit) ancestors, those societies are/were patrilineal and extremely violent. They all had the same religious practices of singing and dancing (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#dancing), to form in-group (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ingroup) cohesion to prevail against their neighbors and survive (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ingroup1). All human societies have similar traits (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#up), which likely means that they were also possessed by the Founder Group.
Just like with the journey of life on Earth, scientists try to determine whether human societies’ features are from descent or convergence, and for language (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#language) and religion (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#dancing), for instance, descent relationships have been determined with high confidence, while the features of Earth’s pristine civilizations (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#pristine1) were highly likely to be convergent, as behaviorally modern humans (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#leap) made similar adaptations to similar circumstances. If ETs come into the open and they are humanoid, the question of descent or convergence will be a key issue to be resolved, and either answer will be amazing.
Those understandings are very important for gaining insights into today’s human societies and what the human potential may be. When abundance becomes a human birthright (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#cognitive), human societies are going to change in ways that are currently unimaginable for the vast majority of humanity, but it was like that for all Epochal Events (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#imagine).
These were key understandings gained through my studies, but without my real-world anthropology class during my adventures, particularly my years with Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=601&viewfull=1#post601), many of those understandings would have likely remained elusive for me. I continually see people encounter my material but fail to understand, and usually they get about halfway there at best, and I can tell that they just have not had the experience that leads to understanding, and the greatest barrier to comprehension is dragging along their scarcity-based baggage (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#dominant). Few can survive the curriculum that I “enjoyed,” so I look for those who have the critical qualities (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=308&viewfull=1#post308), and not necessarily gained through the meat grinder. I don’t need them to get doctorates in free energy and what the implications are. High school graduates will be plenty for what I have in mind (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir).

Hi Melinda (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1136294&viewfull=1#post1136294):
That was a meaty post, and deserves as comprehensive a response as I can muster before rushing off to work. Ah, mystical haircuts. Growing up in Southern California and working in LA for five years, and being a rather prominent member of the mystical milieu, I saw it all (http://ahealedplanet.net/opinions.htm#mystical). So much posturing, including clothing, jewelry, and other trappings, including haircuts, for both men and women, and all of it was meaningless. In fact, people who did that you could almost guarantee did not have the right stuff. Of course, in LA, there was also the Hollywood Effect, and it could get bizarre. No names, but one guy cultivated a kind of Indiana Jones, fringe scientist persona, with shoulder-length hair and rugged good looks, and I once saw it exploited by conference organizers, on the cover of their brochure, and it nearly shouted, “Come and get it, girls!”
Rappoport (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#rappoport) was one of Brian’s pals, and while I am no fan of Infowars or Natural News, venues like those are always under fire, and the high tech mavens are proving to be just as corrupt as their oligarchical forebears. I have very specifically designed what I am doing so that I don’t need money to do what I do. I can likely build the full choir without needing any money. When money changes hands, the game changes radically, as I learned from my days with Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=601&viewfull=1#post601), and not only do people you have known your entire lives turn into Orcs lusting after the One Ring when the issue is free energy, but every time that Dennis was taken out (when it wasn’t by his “allies (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#allies)” and provocateurs (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/81-Vignettes-from-my-journey-and-how-I-learned-what-I-did-and-came-to-my-approach?p=206&viewfull=1#post206)), it was by “consumer protection (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#ama)” activities. Protecting the public is the biggest racket on Earth, and encompasses energy, medicine, etc. It did not matter if you put the world’s best heating system (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#new) on people’s homes for free (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#sfs), the gangsters still found a way to attack you, as they “protected” the public. And the public eagerly played along, even when it meant certain death (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#doom). It was incredible to witness at first, but I came to learn that that is what abdicating one’s responsibility looks like, given to people who literally see you as a profitable piece of meat, at least while you are still alive.
Attacking the tumor (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#racket) as the only “legal” way to treat cancer is completely insane, but that is how the rackets work. I have not closely followed the situation for some time, but a quarter-century ago, I read that there seems to be two kinds of breast “cancers.” The first is really a benign condition, and almost all “successful” breast cancer treatments (if the patients don’t die from the treatment) are treating that benign condition. The real breast cancer is uniformly fatal under attack-the-tumor treatments, as all such treatments only deal with symptoms, not the disease itself. I read something recently that also emphasized that distinction in the breast “cancers.”
Mammograms may cause as much cancer as they detect, and, of course, diagnostic procedures such as those used by Rife (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#rife) and Naessens (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#naessens) are always under fire. Which do you think might have a better chance at diagnosis and understanding: snapshots of death or movies of life?
Yes indeed, I wish that there were a hundred blogs devoted to a comprehensive discussion of the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5) and how to get there (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir), and maybe someday. For now, it is just a few of us.

Hi:
This post will be a little break from wrapping up my lessons learned posts (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=601&viewfull=1), and this will be on music, musicians, and me. I was precocious in many ways, and when I was about ten, my parents had me take piano lessons from a private teacher. They also bought me a trumpet, and I took lessons at school. As I recall, my parents seemed to prime my piano teacher to think that she might have had some kind of musical prodigy on her hands, but it quickly became clear that I had no musical ability. After a year, I was mercifully relieved of taking piano lessons (baseball, basketball, bowling, and later, golf, were my pastimes, and I ended up being in collegiate track, using those hunter-gatherer large muscle groups, while women’s nimble fingers reflect their gathering-duty co-evolution), and when grammar school ended, so did my trumpet days. That trumpet became a family relic, and I don’t recall what ever became of it.
My mother’s sisters and parents were all virtuoso musicians, in singing, piano, the violin, and other instruments. My grandmother and aunt sang in their church’s choir almost continuously for nearly a century, and my aunt may still today. On my father’s side, my aunts were also virtuoso singers and musicians. But those genes totally eluded me. I became an athlete, with a world-class throwing arm (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page4?p=466&viewfull=1#post466) that I got my from father, but I have typical autism-spectrum poor small-motor control, and more than 40 years after my first typing class and working on keyboards for most of my waking hours, I have never been able to type as you are supposed to, partly because I have trouble using my little fingers. That poor small motor control alone disqualified me from making music with my hands, and I can’t carry a note with my voice. Even my wife has musician siblings. It is kind of funny to me that I call my little effort building a choir (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir).
In my home, my redneck father could not get enough country-and-western music, and all that I heard while growing up was Hank Williams, Jim Reeves, and the like. At age 12, I walked out of Let it Be, as I did not even know who those hippies were (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=452991&viewfull=1#post452991). That is an example of how musically isolated my home was back then. I almost never listen to country-and-western music today. :)
It was not until my high school years that I “woke up” to popular music, and when I was 20, my stepmother bought me a gift certificate to a music store. I had never bought a record before, and the gift certificate could buy two albums. I remember spending an hour in the store, making sure that I was getting bang-for-the-buck with what might be my only music purchase ever. I finally settled on Boston’s debut album (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boston_(band)#Boston_.281976.29) and Queen’s A Night at the Opera (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Queen_(band)#1974.E2.80.9376:_Sheer_Heart_Attack_to_A_Night_at_the_Opera). Little did I know what I was getting into. Within a year, I became an audiophile. I had the most money that I ever had until only within the past decade, and spent thousands of dollars on albums and equipment, putting records on cassette tapes, which I still have in a box in the attic, I believe.
I also began to damage my hearing and have been going deaf since the 1980s, and have worn hearing aids for the past decade, at my wife’s insistence. With no musical ability, I somehow became an avid music fan, and listen to music for most of my waking hours. My digitized collection has more than 20,000 tracks in it. Before I really began my career, I lived with a close relative who was a professional musician, a Frank Sinatra sound-alike who was passed off as Frank on one of Frank’s albums (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=912176&viewfull=1#post912176), and every day for months, I would come home to the big band sound that he incessantly played. I grew to like it, and still listen to it regularly. When I began my career in LA, one of my roommates was an aspiring musician, and he made some pretty good stuff, but LA is full of aspiring musicians, and the music stories were like the writing/acting/directing/producing stories that I heard from my pals – it is a shark tank! One of my closest friends was Michael Sembello’s (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Sembello) manager, and he said that he could have retired on just one of the royalty checks that Michael received when he had his big hit. He is the same person who was crippled by a hit-and-run incident on his motorcycle (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/83-My-days-in-the-trucking-industry?p=278&viewfull=1#post278).
That friend also introduced me to a man channeling Seth in LA (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seth_Material#Other_Authorship_Claims), who was also a professional musician, and I went twice a month for two years (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#meetseth). One brother became an aspiring saxophone player, I ended up financially supporting his years of practice. Due to some recent interactions, I decided to look up a boy who grew up two doors from me, whom I babysat when I was a teenager. I heard that he became a music producer in LA. I just discovered that he became famous (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jerry_Finn), but died a decade ago. He did not even make it to 40. My father hired his father for his first professional job. That father was raised in Montana and never saw the ocean until he moved to Ventura. He instantly became an avid scuba diver, but met a typical scuba diver’s fate when he did not come up one day, and he was not yet 50. Too young!
During my years of attending Seth’s amazing sessions, I befriended some regulars, some of whom were musicians. Attending channeling sessions around 1990 was quite the thing to do in LA. I recall Elizabeth Perkins (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elizabeth_Perkins) attending once, and I did not even notice her. My future wife had to tell me later that she attended, as one of twenty people or so, with her regular attendee pal, who was an aspiring Hollywood actress who I don’t think ever made it bigger than some soap operas. Hollywood stars generally do not like playing stars when living their lives, try to be inconspicuous, and I always left them alone. I encountered them all the time in my LA days (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=406928&viewfull=1#post406928), especially in Westwood and Hollywood, when I went to the movies, which was my primary recreation in my LA days.
In about 1990, technology had improved to the point where aspiring musicians could make their own albums without record company patronage or investing their life’s savings. One of those Seth session musicians made an album in those days and I attended one of his shows. A track from his album has a prominent place in my New Age playlist today. For many years, I thought about him, and although we did not keep in touch, he was on my list to contact after I published my big essay. I thought that he might be receptive to my work and might even be choir material, but when I contacted him a couple of years ago, he blew me off in one email. That was not long after receiving Peter Ward’s reaction to my big essay (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page6?p=738&viewfull=1#post738), and that musician’s reaction is almost the point of this post. I know that I am looking for needles in haystacks (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialcircle), and that reaction from that musician is only one of many like it from my social circles.
Where I work today, one of my closest colleagues began his career as a musician. He was a composer who played piano with a symphony behind him, playing his music. After a decade of that, and working in Hollywood a lot, he decided that his career was going nowhere. He then had an experience not far removed from mine (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#voice), which led him into accounting. He has a concert Steinway in his home, which he plays once every few months, and he amazingly can’t casually listen to music. With his background, when he hears music, he involuntarily begins deconstructing it. He can’t just listen to music and enjoy it. He is ruined for music listening, with his composer’s background. I think about that, me with no talent who can hardly get through the day without listening, while a composer can’t stand it. For me, music is a great way to ground my emotions and balance my mind. I’ll do it until I can’t hear anymore, and then it might be just playing that music in my head.
Part of the reason for this post is that my public writings have also attracted musicians. What is that all about? Well, I’ll buy Joya Pope’s reading of me as an Old Artisan (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#reading). Before that reading, the last role that I thought that I might be was an Artisan. We can’t read ourselves, mostly because our egos get in the way. I thought that I was maybe a Server, Warrior, or Scholar (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#role), serving probable Kings like Dennis. But after Joya’s reading, I thought about my life, and my only possessions of note were my music collection, my growing library, and visual art, prints of paintings, mostly, especially Vinny V (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#europe). I was in the middle of doing a lot of system design at my day job (http://ahealedplanet.net/trucking.htm#footnotes), and I was a talented actor when young, saw classmates trying to break into Hollywood when I was in high school, and I did more than one Hollywood audition. I was also just beginning my writing “career” then, and soon after Joya’s reading, I said, “Duh!” :) How obvious, in retrospect.
My big essay and site in general is a classic Old Artisan undertaking. So, what about this music thread that has run through my life? If I am an Old Artisan, I must have had quite a few musical lifetimes, and I strongly suspect that my soul blocked that ability in this lifetime, but left me a window so that I could enjoy what I had spent many lifetimes involved with, but as a consumer/spectator/patron. I think that the basket of gifts and challenges handed to me when I was born was intended to shape the trajectory that my life took, and I could have easily been “distracted” by pursuing careers in music, acting, painting, etc. So, I was purposely handicapped, to help ensure that I accomplished my mission. I certainly cannot prove that to anybody, but I slowly received that impression over many years. No complaints, but seeing that invisible hand at work can be both reassuring and unnerving, especially when I can tell that my “friends” are not finished with me in this lifetime. It is mixed bag to be “chosen” in this way, but I have no regrets. I am listening to Dan Fogelberg (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dan_Fogelberg) as I write this. :)
Best,
Wade

Hi:
I have written plenty that I visit this (http://www.zerohedge.com) “fake news” (according to a Washington Post article (http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2016/12/09/washington-post-on-the-fake-news-hot-seat.html)) site almost daily, and saw an article (http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-02-25/) yesterday on Global Warming (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/90-Global-Warming-Peak-Oil-and-related-topics?p=454&viewfull=1#post454) that will dovetail with my lessons learned posts. Whether it is studying the media (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#big), what is vended as “history (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#more),” the latest scientific findings, Uncle Noam’s work (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#chomsky), or my writings, understanding the source’s bias is always important, if your quest is the truth. Nobody has a monopoly on it in physical reality, where we all see through the glass so dimly. There are a few reasons why I write so frankly about my life, my studies, my foibles, and the like. One is to try to overcome the limitations of the written word. I am trying to make myself as real as possible to those I seek (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir), and they will recognize at least parts of their journeys in mine, which has been a thoroughly human affair, even if many events were larger than life. I am not shy about recounting the many traumas of my journey, in the hopes that others do not have to go out and lose their naïveté the hard way. The free energy field is not the place to lose one’s naïveté, as the hazards can be deadly.
That financial blogger article is typical of the scientifically illiterate writings that abound in cyberspace, and I find it rather bizarre that supposedly astute financial bloggers get all in a lather about the scientific consensus on Global Warming, calling it some kind of cultish conclusion, but they can’t seem to even imagine that the people who have been leading Global Warming “skepticism” for the past generation openly sold their souls to the hydrocarbon interests (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/90-Global-Warming-Peak-Oil-and-related-topics?p=463&viewfull=1#post463), and most of the world’s largest companies (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_largest_companies_by_revenue) are hydrocarbon companies. What is wrong with that picture? That is an example of where understanding the bias of the writers is important. The Zero Hedge people generally have swallowed the capitalist Kool-Aid, so corporate malfeasance is often underplayed in favor of highlighting governmental malfeasance. I drank that capitalist Kool-Aid (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page12?p=862&viewfull=1#post862), too, before I began to realize what a Big Lie it all was. Governments are not the answer (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#beseeching1), either, as they are owned by the private interests (http://ahealedplanet.net/roots.htm#politics).
The basics of the impact of greenhouse gases, and carbon dioxide chief among them, are really quite easy to understand, but that article confuses the issue, either from ignorance or purposefully, and I usually favor the “scientifically illiterate” explanation for those kinds of writings.
Gases of three or more atoms have configurations that can absorb infrared radiation (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/90-Global-Warming-Peak-Oil-and-related-topics?p=544&viewfull=1#post544). Photosynthesis absorbs radiation in the visible spectrum (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#photosynthesis1), and before that captured photon energy can be reemitted, in less than a trillionth of a second, the electron that absorbed that photon energy is stripped off of its original molecule and moved to more stable configurations that store that photon energy and do not reemit it. But greenhouse gas molecules soon reemit that photon. However, it gets reemitted in a random direction, not necessarily in the direction of space, where it was originally heading when it left Earth’s surface as infrared radiation. Those photons “ricochet” between greenhouse gas molecules, and energy that rattles around in the atmosphere that way will raise its temperature. It is really pretty simple stuff.
For many years now, scientists have accepted that carbon dioxide levels have widely fluctuated over Earth’s history, but the general trend has been carbon sequestering in Earth’s crust (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#weathering), and declining volcanism has meant declining carbon dioxide levels (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#GEOCARBSULF) for at least the past 100 million years. There is not much dispute about this among paleologists. The history of Earth’s oxygen levels (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#oxygenation) has been far more contentious these days, but nobody is suggesting that Earth’s oxygen levels are not due to oxygenic photosynthesis (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#oxygenic). No credible person can suggest that the current skyrocketing carbon dioxide levels are not due to humanity’s burning hydrocarbons.
Earth’s Greenhouse and icehouse phases have been almost totally dependent on carbon dioxide levels. We have been in an icehouse Earth for the past 35 million years, after a 15 million year transition (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#icehouse) from a 200 million year greenhouse Earth (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#permianwarming) that the dinosaurs thrived in. The ultimate cause of today’s ice age (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#cryogenian) is those declining carbon dioxide levels. Antarctica’s becoming isolated at the South Pole (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#antarctica2) was the first proximate cause, the next was formation of the land bridge between the Americas (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#atlanticextinction), and for the past million years, the clocklike advances and retreats of the ice sheets have been due to variation in Earth’s orientation to the Sun (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#iceageeurope1). Carbon dioxide levels have fluctuated over the past million years with the cold and warm phases, but no credible scientist thinks that they were immediately causative, but were more like positive and negative feedbacks to that orientation of Earth.
That article argues that carbon dioxide is not some causative factor in climate variation over the past million years, but all climate scientists know that. It is a red herring argument, designed to gull the scientifically illiterate, as it may have gulled that financial blogger. Other bogus analyses are focusing on the minutia of temperature fluctuations, as they look at the noise and not the signal, or they focus on regional variation. All that that proves is that global climate is complex.
Global Warming “skeptics” who perform those kinds of analyses are the financial blogger equivalent of arguing that the insane money printing by the world’s central banks can’t create bubbles, because they honed in on the minutia of some inconsequential variable, or they noted that some nations have not experienced a bubble yet. The rapid melting of the world’s ice (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Retreat_of_glaciers_since_1850) is undeniable, but when faced with that incontrovertible evidence, Global Warming “skeptics” attribute it to natural variation. They literally have nothing to base that on, and when I see those kinds of arguments, they are the typical “business as usual” arguments that go back to the collapses of early civilizations (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#earlycivilizations), when they ran out of energy (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#eroidecline). Some astute observers saw what was happening and tried to warn their civilizations, but they were drowned out by the chorus of self-interest and denial. It is no different today. There should not be any debate that human practices are quickly making Earth uninhabitable (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#spaceshipearth). While financial bloggers and other scientifically illiterate writers are in full denial mode, the GCs (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc) and friends aren’t, as they prepare their survival enclaves, and some of their plans are bizarre (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#mars).
Global Warming deniers are ironically close cousins to the climate change advocates for the megafauna extinctions (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#climatechange2). What those seemingly diametrically opposed views have in common is absolving humanity of any responsibility for its actions, which is thoroughly egocentric and all too common in our world (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#burn). Most are not even conscious of what they are doing, and actually convince themselves that they are seeking the truth. Not all of them (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#serving) are that deluded, but most likely are.
The big issue is that through burning up the hydrocarbon deposits that have fueled the industrial age, carbon dioxide levels are literally skyrocketing. What humanity is doing may be unprecedented in Earth’s history. A 50% rise in carbon dioxide levels in little more than a century is, on the geologic timescale (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#geologictime1), an explosion in the blink of an eye. The last time that Earth went from icehouse to greenhouse conditions, it saw the greatest mass extinction in the eon of complex life (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#permianextinction). Some scientists now think that the spasm of the great die-off may have only lasted 60,000 years or so, capping off a period of 20 million years of challenging times (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#olsonsextinction). Humanity may drive Earth’s species to Permian levels of extinction in only a few centuries. It is shaping up to be the most dramatic extinction event (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#sixth1) outside of the bolide that took out the dinosaurs (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#cretaceousextinction).
Humanity’s burning up the hydrocarbon deposits with abandon could literally turn Earth from an icehouse world to a greenhouse one within a few centuries. Will the accompanying extinction reach Permian levels, which might take humanity with it? Any scientist with a clue knows that humanity is toying with it (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#spaceshipearth). So, arguments like that financial blogger made are at about the disinformation/gossip level of the issue, just as I see for so many important issues on Earth.
Developing a comprehensive perspective (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#developing) can help prevent being distracted by the circus, which is a primary purpose of my big essay.
Best,
Wade

Hi:
The next month is going to be a heroic one at my day job, and I currently have no idea whether I will get the time off this year to do my essay update, so I am going to have to change my routine to make the time to get it done this year, and my daily postings will have to give for now. I will begin to make them every other day, and work on the essay update with the time that I use for writing posts. I am also clearing the decks of my life in other ways so that I can get this done. I have a lot of work to do on the essay revision, with a three-foot stack of books and scientific magazines next to my desk to reflect in it. Nothing will change the essay’s thrust, but the update will go deeper in several areas, notably molecular biology, human sociality, including its deep roots in the primate line (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#rhesus1), and the journey of life on Earth, particularly complex life, and a bit of geology and astronomy. If I had a month or two of free time, I could get it done, but I’ll have to try to fold it into my busy daily life. After that revision, I plan to get a bit more active on the choir (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir) front. It will likely be years after than until another significant revision.
Today’s post will be a little addendum to my recent music post (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page7?p=870&viewfull=1#post870). I left out a few important musician connections, not the least of which was Brian O (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm). Brian’s Maui Suite (http://www.brianoleary.info/Maui%20Suite.html) is pretty good stuff, and has an honored place in my New Age collection. Brian was not really astronaut material, and being an accomplished musician was just one of several ways that he did not fit in. If not for von Braun’s Mars plans (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianbio.htm#mars), Brian would have never been hired, and NASA later considered Brian to be a hiring mistake. If Brian had gone up, he would have been the artist in space, not the military test-pilot types that dominated the astronaut corps.
Dennis met his wife because her boyfriend died, who was Jim Croce’s manager, and died in the same crash that took Croce’s life (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis?p=579&viewfull=1#post579). When I drove out to Boston (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=611&viewfull=1#post611), among the few possessions that I brought along of Dennis’s and Alison’s (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/81-Vignettes-from-my-journey-and-how-I-learned-what-I-did-and-came-to-my-approach?p=211&viewfull=1#post211) was her guitar, which was her prized possession, and playing it was a religious experience for her. Dennis himself is artistically talented, and it was heartwarming to see a painting of his in his daughter’s home when I visited it in 2013 (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/81-Vignettes-from-my-journey-and-how-I-learned-what-I-did-and-came-to-my-approach/page3?p=249&viewfull=1#post249). Dennis is certainly a creative genius, and growing up around inventors (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#glimpse) was also part of my artistic background. Creativity is the positive pole of Artisans (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#role), and inventors and scientific geniuses such as Einstein have often been Artisans, maybe even predominantly.
I think that I have mentioned it someplace in my public writings, that one of my closest pals from my LA days (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=406928&viewfull=1#post406928) was an aspiring moviemaker. We met through the Silva (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#silva) class when he took it, and I was pals with the instructor. He was from old European money and was supposed to take over the family’s industrial empire, but forsook it all to move to Hollywood and make movies. That is quite a story that I won’t get into much today, but he went from being the lost son who forsook his family’s plans for him to becoming the Steven Spielberg of his nation, and his family poured millions of dollars into his effort. I heard plenty of slimy Hollywood stories from him. He helped edit my big essay, and was one of my most important contributors. We went to movies all the time, in Westwood and Hollywood, and he would analyze them. It was insightful stuff. My roommate in Seattle, when I met Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=601&viewfull=1#post601), was also an aspiring writer, actor, and moviemaker, and he would also analyze movies. He moved to LA the next year (right after making a TV pilot that never went anywhere, and marrying an aspiring actress who eventually got a job on LA’s TV news, as a traffic girl), and I helped support him during the lean times. It was always boom or bust for him. He was a professional photographer when we met, and in LA, he would get on game shows and make enough prize money to survive a little while longer, waiting for the big break that never came. He would get a big payday from selling a screenplay, and then nothing for years. A lawyer that I worked with at my high-tech firm took a year off of his career to make a movie (which I bought and enjoyed, and on his last day of work at my company, he got the Wade’s World talk that I have often given to departing colleagues, as a gift, but it rarely results in a closer relationship, but it also has several times), and is a Hollywood attorney today, for a big movie studio.
My moviemaker friend’s blueblood background took many interesting directions. He is the CEO of companies that he owns, but has not worn shoes for 20 years or so, walking around like a peasant, meeting ambassadors and the like. When you are that rich, you can be eccentric, and your eccentricities can be celebrated. He gets pictures taken of his barefoot self, with the high and mighty eagerly posing with the barefoot mogul.
He grew up worshipping Mozart, and his apartment’s living room was dominated by a harpsichord. He played for me, to practice playing to an audience. He did not have much talent, but he had the best harpsichord in LA, which they would come and take from his apartment to the concert hall when they needed one. He was close friends with the world’s foremost harpsichordist (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trevor_Pinnock), and I saw up close how people like him were treated, by artists looking for patrons. When we attended a recital of a world class organist (the world’s foremost at the time, as I seem to recall) on some small LA church’s new organ, which cost something like $14 million (which was way too dominant for that little church, and that recital that I attended was the first ever given on that organ, if my memory serves me), the pastor did his best to reel in my pal as a patron. My pal also spent years in rural Cambodia, learning how to play a stringed Cambodian instrument from a master musician, who I am sure was pleased to have a rich, white student for years, who I am sure supported the master during his years of tutelage.
I heard plenty about the music business in LA, from him and others in it, and it is the same kind of situation that exists in writing, acting, directing, etc. For every star that emerges, thousands toil in anonymity, looking for that break, and are often greatly abused by the system, which is full of predators and, as my moviemaker pal called it, the business’s “slime factor.” Those casting couch stories were not myths, and the recent revelations of a pedophile ring among Hollywood execs (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corey_Feldman#Later_career) are not surprising.
I knew a guy who tried making it as a writer in LA, but was reduced to producing porn flicks for a time. Porn in LA is kind of the minor leagues of people wanting to make it in LA, but funny things can happened along the way. People such as Ron Jeremy tried to break into acting (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ron_Jeremy#Early_life) before taking the lower road to success in entertainment. Some porn stars ended up being in legitimate Hollywood productions, and Sasha Grey (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sasha_Grey#Acting) is the latest that I am aware of, and those several porn stars in Game of Thrones (http://nypost.com/2014/04/08/meet-the-6-porn-stars-who-have-appeared-on-game-of-thrones/). The porn business is so prevalent in California that a close relative lived in an old Victorian mansion with an extraordinary bathroom that they rented out to porn producers, who shot movies in that bathroom. That was in San Francisco, not LA, and I think it was straight porn, not gay porn. Hey, it helped pay the rent! :)
I have been approached several times to make my work into TV shows and movies (and I get “publish a book” all the time, but I am not interested), but I have always declined the invitations. I know enough of those businesses to know what the odds are, even if Godzilla (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc) was not monitoring my activities. Brian went bankrupt when he self-published. The Eye of Sauron is definitely aware of my work, but I think that I am pretty low on the radar (http://ahealedplanet.net/risk.htm#graphic), and my approach seeks to avoid the many pitfalls that await the inexperienced and unwary (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#approaches). If I approached Hollywood, Washington D.C. (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#activism), or Wall Street, or even spoke publicly in my home state, I would begin to experience interventions, and I don’t see the point in that. I have seen what doesn’t work, and few can survive even one of those attempts to try again. I am constantly badgered by people who try to move me in the directions that they want me to take, but not one of them has ever truly understood, and they are usually trapped by their naïveté (http://ahealedplanet.net/conun.htm#naive), they drag along their baggage (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#dominant), play the self-seeking game (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#burn), etc. Also, I am using a low-cost way of communicating with the entire planet, and it is that comprehensive conversation that is going to attract the people I seek, not being on Oprah, and somebody with a message like mine will never be in venues like Oprah’s. Brian was gradually banished to the fringes, the more he pursued the truth. The only TV shows on Dennis smeared him, going back to a few weeks after I met him (http://ahealedplanet.net/COP.htm#news), and continued until he was finally run out of the USA (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=694872&viewfull=1#post694872).
Anyway, I have had many connections to the creative arts, and other than growing up in Southern California, I don’t know what it was, other than perhaps being an Old Artisan (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#reading), and we attracted each other like magnets.
On a lighter note, my wife likes watching the Academy Awards, and last night was “entertaining” in ways. I gave the TV a double-bird when a New York Times ad portrayed itself as a seeker of truth. Nothing could be further from the truth. How Orwellian that they are now playing some kind of “truth” game against Trump. There are few bigger liars on Earth than The New York Times (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#loot). Their stand is reminiscent of Judith Miller’s (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#iraq) becoming some kind of martyr for the free press, when she was The New York Times’s leading propagandist in beating the drums for war. Those White Helmets are phonies (http://www.activistpost.com/2016/11/fake-news-alert-cnn-finally-admits-white-helmets-staged-fake-video.html), supported by USAID and other imperial interests (http://www.moonofalabama.org/2016/06/the-usuk-financed-white-helmets-shtick-fake-child-rescued-videos.html). How Hollywood to give a promotional film on them an Oscar. A college roommate, whom I talked into becoming an accountant, and who eventually bagged it and teaches high school math today, was also my roommate in LA (and lives near me today), and he worked out of the PWC (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PricewaterhouseCoopers) office that counts those Oscar ballots. In the wake of last night’s SNAFU (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PricewaterhouseCoopers#2017_Academy_Awards_Controversy), I wonder if they are going to lose that prestigious account. It is guaranteed that heads will roll. That was definitely the most entertaining moment of the night. :) Poor Warren Beatty. I hope that he does not keel over anytime soon.

Hi:
This will be one of those “statement” posts that I make periodically. The past few days have seen my reading include Keith Otterbein’s masterpiece, The Anthropology of War (https://www.amazon.com/Anthropology-War-Keith-F-Otterbein/dp/1577666070), and I attached an image that I made after one of his, a version of which will go in my big essay revision. His slim volume is the most succinct summary that I have seen on the issue.
Otterbein called himself a structuralist (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#conspiracism), stating that social and political organization decides why there are wars (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#warreason1), but as you can see in that diagram, his structuralist political and social theories ride on top of the economic situation. The extinction of large game (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#australianmegafauna) led to the Agricultural Revolution (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#kebaran). When women brought in more calories than the men did, those societies often became matrilineal (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#patrilineal1), and those are what Otterbein called “Type B” societies, and they are the most peaceful preindustrial societies. Type A societies are dominated by male gangs (AKA “Fraternal Interest Groups”) and are exceedingly violent.
There are certainly variations to those generalizations, but not very significant ones, and I found that explanations of human social and political organization lose their punch when they stray from evolutionary and economic (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#economists) dynamics. All human societies circle in a close orbit to those realities. And evolution and economics are all about energy, at their root. The level of energy surplus (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#discretionary) defines the wellbeing of individuals, species, and societies, without exception. Each Epoch of the human journey (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochaltable) was based upon that Epoch’s level of energy surplus, again without exception.
Sociality is an adaptive response of animals (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialreason) and even plants, for survival. Human sociality is a pre-sentient phenomenon, and is largely about creating in-groups (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ingroup) and outgroups (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ingroup1), and early human societies and religions were conditioned by warfare with their neighbors. In times of war and external pressure, in-group pressure to conform is at its high, which I saw in the USA after 9/11 (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#wtc). The American people were almost effortlessly convinced to cheer the invasion of a nation (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#invading) that had nothing whatsoever to do with 9/11 and was not a threat to anybody. Sentience was hard to find in those days.
I am continually approached by people who are stuck in social consciousness, and proselyting to their social circles (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialcircle) is typical for free energy newcomers. Heck, I did more than that (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page3?p=617&viewfull=1#post617), and no tale of ostracism would surprise me. My own mother campaigned against me (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=300436&viewfull=1#post300436).
I seek people who have raised their games far above social consciousness, and I know that they are needles in haystacks. Psychopaths have in-groups of one. Most people’s social circles are no more than 250 people or so, which are, to one degree or another, their in-groups, but when times get tough, their in-groups quickly shrink to their immediate families. In hard winters, the Inuit could even eat their children, as people can justify anything. I imagine that when hunger returned after dining on their children, the parents began looking at each other as food.
The people I seek (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir) see all life on Earth as their in-group. What my fellow travelers had in common was the honesty to see through their in-group’s lies, but they always drank the Kool-Aid (http://ahealedplanet.net/paths.htm#scouts), first. Then they awoke to the lies (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=309&viewfull=1#post309).
Part of that awakening process is seeing through the scarcity-based ideologies that dominate their cultures, and those I am familiar with the West (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#dominant) are all based on fear, scarcity (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#coming), and they are egocentric. None of them will survive into the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5).
Money is a meaningless abstraction, yet Westerners treat it as something real, and economists have abetted that delusion (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#economists), as they ignored the real world in favor of social theories. My work is about understanding how our world really works, not the social consciousness version of it.
On a different note, this thread passed 1.8 million views yesterday.

Hi:
Those Hollywood tales (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page7?p=870&viewfull=1#post870) were part of my lessons learned (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page12?p=872&viewfull=1#post872), which I learned before and during my days with Dennis. They were early lessons on the lack of integrity in the world (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#burn), and I’ll wrap up those posts with a couple of anecdotes from my moviemaker friend.
The problem in Hollywood, as it is in all creative industries, is the dearth of good ideas, which is partly why Hollywood does sequels to death. If you have a great idea, multitudes are ready to steal it. It was just another example of what I learned from Mr. Mentor’s journey (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#glimpse), as all of his inventions were stolen or suppressed. He even once wrote a story about Santa Claus, when Santa was young. He had no idea how to break into the publishing business, lent a copy of his manuscript to a schoolteacher sister, who showed it to come colleagues. A couple of years later, those colleagues made a TV movie based on that story. Of course, Mr. Mentor never received any recognition or money, as they stole the story outright. I discovered that that was very common in Hollywood.
My moviemaker friend told me of a script that he was interested in, and the seller had a documentary trail that certified its authenticity, but as my friend examined the documents, something looked a little odd about them. His further investigation proved that the “authenticity” documents were forged, as it was a stolen script that the seller was peddling. My friend finished that anecdote with, “That is an example of the slime factor in this business.”
During those years, my friend worked closely with who is arguably the most famous country musician ever, who also had an acting career in those days. He was developing a script that was going to be a star vehicle for that country musician, and somebody stole an early version of the script, made a bad movie out of it, and it wrecked the viability of my friend’s project, so he had to scrap it.
I have written (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/89-Free-energy-psychic-abilities-and-the-skeptics-and-debunkers?p=419&viewfull=1#post419) about how the makers of Chain Reaction picked Yull Brown’s brains for a couple of days, promising to raise the money to makes his dreams come to fruition, and instead they came out with a movie that portrayed a Yull ringer blowing up a city with his experiment.
Those are typical events in Hollywood, and all of my pals had similar stories. In LA, everybody is trying to use everybody else, and it took me a year (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=406928&viewfull=1#post406928) to realize that when people were instantly friendly to me, they were trying to use me for something.

Hi:
I am winding down my lessons learned posts (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page12?p=872&viewfull=1), and expect to finish them before long. As I recently wrote (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page7?p=873&viewfull=1#post873), explanations of human political and social organization only make much sense when they are rooted in evolutionary and economic dynamics. For every Jesus who can rise above his Epoch and reach godhead-level understanding (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#enemy), the rest of us grope around, fumbling blindly, egocentrically searching for security and comfort, with our fear-based addictions temporarily sated. But each Epoch of the human journey (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochaltable) became progressively more humane. The enlightenment of a Jesus did not end slavery; industrialization did (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#demographic). The condition of women was wholly dependent on what Epoch they lived in. In the First and Second Epochs (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#patrilineal1), they were largely war booty, vessels of reproduction that men would kill each other over possessing.
Only in situations where women were able to bring in more calories than the men and band together did their societies become matrilineal, and women enjoyed their highest status until the Industrial Revolution. When the civilizations of the Third Epoch formed, women universally lost their previous high status (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#womenstatus1) and became the broodmares of agrarian economies. We have had the same biological equipment for at least the past 60,000 years (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#leap), so all of those changes in human societies since then have only reflected their economic conditions, and their energy surplus (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#discretionary), most importantly. Everything else was of minimal importance, and it remains so today, although hardly anybody is aware of the reality, as nearly all humans today are scientifically illiterate, just as almost everybody was illiterate in the agrarian epoch, at about the same proportion of 5%-10% of the population or so.
So, when I see leftists and their protests against the economic order (http://ahealedplanet.net/radleft.htm), or New Agers (http://ahealedplanet.net/purpose.htm#newage) vending their nostrums for achieving abundance (just imagine it!), I realize that they can only imagine reshuffling the deck of scarcity, and are firmly stuck in their super-Epoch. The practicalities of becoming a Type 1 civilization (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#kardashev) escape them, just as it escapes nearly everybody on Earth. The world does not work how they think it does. For those who are not scientifically illiterate, they are almost always trapped by the assumptions of mainstream science, which comprise a virtual religion (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#mystical1), although few scientists are aware and honest enough to admit it.
The kind of people needed (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=308&viewfull=1#post308) for an effort like mine (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir) to have a prayer of success only became clear to me after many years. The integrity part (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page6?p=708&viewfull=1#post708) I learned in no uncertain terms during my first stint with Dennis, and the big surprise was not that Godzilla was active (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page7?p=714&viewfull=1#post714), vigilant, and was only too happy to sic his minions on us, including the media (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page7?p=716&viewfull=1#post716), but that my family and friends would betray and attack me like they did. My fellow travelers all had similar experiences. As Dennis eventually admitted, his allies did more damage to his effort than his enemies did (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#allies). I got a pretty good idea of how scientific Illiteracy hampered people’s understanding during my days with Dennis, and it became much more evident after my long years of study, but what also became clear was how trapped scientists were in their “laws of physics (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#fe)” religion.
Scientists have almost never authored any technological breakthroughs. Theorists came along after the fact, to erect theories about what the inventors and empiricists (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#theorists) came up with, and mainstream science is notorious for ignoring and even ridiculing such events as lighting up a park with incandescent lighting (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#edison), or planes flying through the air (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#wright), so the inventors of Dennis’s heat pump cutting their performance data in half (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#half) to maintain “credibility,” or the crazed reactions that Brian received (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#reactions) from his peers to the idea of free energy, were typical. Our interactions with environmentalists (http://ahealedplanet.net/purpose.htm#environmentalists) were typical, as they are very well aware of free energy’s potential, but regard it as the enemy.
In that light, microscopes attaining “impossible” resolutions (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#microscopes) being ignored and derided for nearly a century are typical, and Brown’s Gas experiments (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/89-Free-energy-psychic-abilities-and-the-skeptics-and-debunkers?p=422&viewfull=1#post422) yielding “impossible” results that have been studiously dismissed and ignored for a generation is normal science at work. There is a great delusion held by many that scientists are selfless seekers of the truth. They are herd animals, like the rest of humanity, if seemingly more intelligent than average.
When I hear from scientists and their allies that they will take free energy seriously when somebody can deposit working prototypes in their laps (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level4), or they read about it in the peer-reviewed literature, it only emphasizes how worthless mainstream scientists are (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#irrelevant) on the free energy front. But the free energy milieu is also dominated by scientists and inventors, which reflects the field’s state of arrested development (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#arrested), and those scientists and inventors (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page6?p=709&viewfull=1#post709) going off the deep end and declaring themselves to be the Messiah (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#messiah) or Second Coming (http://ahealedplanet.net/conun.htm#grandeur) are typical behaviors, I am sorry to report, or they libel (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#libel) the true heroes of the field, and their disinformation is parroted by the other “leaders” in the field. Free energy inventors and scientists are only one small part of a much larger issue, but almost nobody is willing or able to understand. Those are just some of the many reasons why I don’t want to have anything to do with the free energy field.
Also, I am regularly approached by free energy neophytes who don’t have any experience and have not done the work, beginning with studying my big essay, but they challenge the validity of my experiences and perspective, or provide their bright ideas, which have without exception been variations of the same failed approaches (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#approaches). They don’t seem to be able or willing to understand that I am doing something different, and only people with the right stuff, and who do the work, are going to be any help for an effort like mine (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir), and I know through rueful experience that I seek needles in haystacks (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialcircle).
It has taken more than 40 years, since my first dreams of changing the energy industry (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#glimpse), to get where I am today, and I am not nearly finished, and have devoted the rest of my life’s spare time to this pursuit, and we will see how it goes.
I am not quite finished with these lessons learned posts, but am getting close. I plan to stay close to that every-other-day posting pattern until I finish the revision to my big essay, and with that strategy, I should complete it this year, fate willing.
Best,
Wade

Hi:
Those years during my first stint with Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=601&viewfull=1#post601) was my real-world anthropology class, and when the dust settled four years later (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page6?p=707&viewfull=1#post707), human behavior could never surprise me again. My long years of study really began in 1989 (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page5?p=689&viewfull=1#post689), when I began descending into university libraries to help prepare any experts that my legal fund could line up to testify. That dive only went deeper when I moved to Ohio (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page7?p=739&viewfull=1#post739), and never really let up. If I had to put a number on the time that I have spent in study and writing since 1989, it probably amounts to at least eight years of full-time effort, maybe even ten, all done for free. I also had to dig out of my financial abyss (more than once), put my wife through graduate school, help my family (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page11?p=852&viewfull=1#post852), and the like. Those decisions cost me ever having children, owning my own home, and other “frills” that my peers took for granted. But I have no regrets. I had a very good idea what I was getting into, unlike when that voice spoke to me (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#voice3).
Those first several years of study were largely about plumbing the depths of the lies that I had been raised with (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm). After my second stint with Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page9?p=803&viewfull=1#post803), I reached new levels of study and writing, and 5.5 years later, my site was completed largely as it stands today. Then I discovered Uncle Bucky’s work (http://ahealedplanet.net/roots.htm#fuller) and embarked on the studies that resulted in my big essay, and my studies since 2007 were specifically intended toward writing what became that essay. When I make the essay update this year, I hope, this point will become even clearer: the masses are not going to be talked into waking up and helping the Fifth Epoch manifest (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#brink). It has never worked that way, but there is no end of New Age (http://ahealedplanet.net/purpose.htm#newage) nostrums, social consciousness (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialcircle), and the rest of those unworkable ideas in circulation about how to change the world. Fraudulent “facts” such as the Hundredth Monkey Effect (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page12?p=867&viewfull=1#post867) abound, as the scientifically illiterate propose their invalid ideas.
Humanity is not going to immediately become enlightened when the Fifth Epoch arrives. However, just like slavery became a barbaric institution (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#demographic) when industrialization happened, nearly all of the hallowed institutions and ideologies (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#dominant) of the Third and Fourth Epochs will likewise come to be seen as primitive and will be discarded as chattel slavery was. While the material changes of the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#immediate) will be awesome to behold, the economic/political/social/cognitive changes (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#cognitive) will be mind-boggling, and humanity will have a great opportunity to finally become a truly sentient species. But none of those changes will happen (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#necessity) without free energy and its attendant suppressed technologies. That is where scientific literacy (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=313&viewfull=1#post313) and understanding how our world really works comes in, for those I seek (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir). Otherwise, an effort like mine will be nothing more than New Age pabulum, and there is already more than enough of that flying around.
There is not going to be some big event in which Godzilla (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc) is unmasked before the world, the ETs (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ufo2) will not suddenly land on the White House Lawn, and the Ascended Masters are not coming down here to save humanity from itself. Those are all Hollywood and New Age fantasies, in which we can play spectators without doing the work that we came here to do, or at least, what my fellow travelers and I came to do. Giving free energy to humanity, however, would be big, to put it mildly, and is very feasible if only a tiny fraction of humanity woke up and combined their efforts, which will only work if everybody keeps their eyes on the ball (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gcfocus). That is why a comprehensive perspective (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#developing) is needed. Otherwise, people are easily distracted by the latest spectacle, and there is no end to that today.
I recently wrote (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page7?p=873&viewfull=1#post873) about the economic and evolutionary dynamics behind human sociality and warfare, and my essay update is going to expand on those ideas, even more than it already has. We are not going to get there through social consciousness, which is pre-sentient and all about survival (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialreason). The people I seek need to play the game far above that level, and those that I seek already have (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=309&viewfull=1#post309).
Becoming familiar with the material in my big essay is only a prerequisite for a far more involved conversation. That has yet to happen, but I can’t settle for less, or my effort will fail. I am constantly approached by people with their shortcut ideas (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#approaches), but not even one of them has done the work. How I wish there was an easy way to do this, and we could all solve the world’s problems on our lunch hours, but the biggest event in the human journey is not going to happen that way. Much of my work is to help disabuse those I seek of harboring any “bright ideas” for a shortcut. There aren’t any.
I also regularly hear from pupils about how they tried to turn on their social circles to my work, and I am not sure that I ever heard of even one taker. Again, if you are one whom I seek, it is pretty much guaranteed that nobody else in your life will be. Those are just the numbers (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialcircle), and it does no good to judge the situation (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#judge1). While that can be one of the loneliest feelings on Earth (http://ahealedplanet.net/camelot.htm#lonely), I am making a home for my little group to gather (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/forum.php). Not for comfort or shelter, although those may be side-effects, but so that we can pool our awareness in a dynamic interaction, in which the whole will become far greater than the sum of the parts. That kind of gathering and synergy, on this kind of material, has yet to happen on Earth. The song sung in chorus will attract the people I seek. If I can find enough people with the right stuff who do the work, making free energy happen will be laughably easy. But we need to do the work. That is a key lesson that I learned on my journey. The work has to be done, and there are no shortcuts, although work like mine can help shorten people’s learning curves, as they can do come vicarious learning.
Best,
Wade

Hi:
In light of the latest from Wikileaks (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vault_7), I’ll repeat that I have expected no privacy since the 1980s, and nobody who interacts with me should expect any, either. I am approached all the time by people who seek public anonymity, but they are fools if they think that they are anonymous from Godzilla (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc). He knows. It is kind of a bizarre paradox. Nobody who interacts with me has anything to fear from Godzilla because they interacted with me. They have the most to fear from their social circles (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialcircle), but then they go and proselytize to them, which is when they can get in trouble. If they were real people, openly interacting with me, but refraining from proselytizing to their social circles, all would be well. But almost nobody seems to be willing or able to understand that, and is another reason why I know that I seek needles in haystacks.
On another note, I have been reading up on the Permian extinction (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#permianextinction) lately, in light of a new paper (http://www.nature.com/articles/srep43630) that is being trumpeted (https://www.lewrockwell.com/2017/03/no_author/mass-extinction-due-ice-age-not-warming/) by Global Warming deniers (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/90-Global-Warming-Peak-Oil-and-related-topics?p=463&viewfull=1#post463). The papers are coming fast and furiously, which argue that the land and ocean extinctions were more than a million years apart (http://www.utdallas.edu/news/2015/11/3-31772_Findings-Rock-Long-Held-Assumptions-about-Ancient-_story-wide.html), that the land life was not exterminated at all (https://www.sciencenews.org/article/land-life-spared-permian-extinction-geologists-argue), that ocean chemistry changes (https://www.chemistryworld.com/news/ocean-chemistry-changes-triggered-earths-greatest-extinction-event/2500368.article) did it, that the Capitanian extinction should join the big five (http://www.sciencemag.org/news/2015/04/sixth-extinction-rivaling-dinosaurs-should-join-big-five-scientists-say), and so on. Good stuff, and I’ll add my reading on this to my essay update. If it turns out that a brief ice age did the damage in the ocean, that is consistent with the previous two big ones, the Ordovician (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ordovicianextinction) and the Devonian (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#kellwasser), but I think that it is way too early to make that call. There have also been warming extinctions, such as the Paleocene-Eocene one (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#petm). To seize on one study for political purposes is typical these days.

Hi:
I have to rush off to work, so this will be short. One of the lessons I learned on my journey is that “overnight successes” and “explosions” and “revolutions” don’t just happen, but the events that led to them can be seen. Even the Big Bang is being challenged in orthodox corners these days, as being more of a quantum event, with the physical universe gradually blinking into existence. The Cambrian Explosion (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#cambriancause) vexed scientists from Darwin onward, as it challenged evolutionary theory, if everything appeared overnight from nothing. But now scientists have been able to trace the contours of life’s journey on Earth (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#luca) for billions of years, and the Cambrian Explosion was a long time in coming. Similarly, the Mammalian Explosion (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#cenozoic) happened because the dinosaurs were wiped out (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#cretaceousextinction), and the mammal line (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#cynodont) was dominant before dinosaurs were, and all dominant orders of mammals today had appeared by the time the dinosaurs disappeared.
On the human journey (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#path), the story is also one of gradual changes, which could result in something relatively dramatic at times, but the roots of the “explosions” or “revolutions” are evident today, after a great deal of sleuthing. The Industrial Revolution (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal4) is the only “revolution” or “explosion” that happened during recorded history, and the events of the Third Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal3) can today be readily seen that led to the Industrial Revolution, as a deforested England turned to coal (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#coaluse).
There is a temptation to attribute things like the rise of humans or megalithic architecture (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#egyptold) to ET intervention and the like, but that seems to be just magical thinking that inserts some miracle, because people do not really understand what happened. Invoking some kind of divine or ET intervention is common among the scientifically illiterate, and is the equivalent of folk tales. I have had plenty of divine intervention in my life, so I know it is real, but it was up to me to do the work. Those interventions did not come out of nowhere, and came as a response to need (or to help direct me on my path, such as that voice (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#voice3)).

Hi:
I have written about the spooks now and then, such as here (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page11?p=847&viewfull=1#post847), but this will be a little more on the timely subject, in the wake of the latest from Wikileaks (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vault_7). Learning about the spooks was important for what I am doing. I suppose my introduction to it was my father’s having to get a top-secret security clearance to work for NASA (http://ahealedplanet.net/paths.htm#oleary), as Brian also did. The Space Race was a Cold War concoction, and JFK tried to end the Space Race before he was murdered by the spooks (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page8?p=755&viewfull=1#post755), and if what E. Howard Hunt told Doug Caddy (http://educationforum.ipbhost.com/index.php?/topic/20494-bill-decker-and-john-tower/&do=findComment&comment=321167) was valid, and I have little doubt that it was, the ET issue was part of the rationale, but a proximate cause (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#ultimate) at most. The Soviets also knew plenty about the ETs (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ufo2), and the USA’s spooks knew that they did. If I had gone to the Air Force Academy (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm#business), I would have been deeply immersed in the USA’s national security culture, and I will always be thankful that my mother had my father talk me out of it. For all that happened afterward to wreck our relationships, they get big points for that. I have seen what the culture does to people. They either drink the Kool-Aid or drink themselves to death.
Several years before meeting Dennis (who was an honorary spook for a brief time (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page9?p=778&viewfull=1#post778), which was typical in the Vietnam era), I lived with a close relative who was a CIA contract agent (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#cia), who nearly tried to recruit me into the “business,” but I luckily moved away before he could make his pitch. I only found out about his secret life from his wife, after they divorced, and she was wife number four or so. His life was a train wreck, and he essentially drank himself to death, certainly partly due to the cognitive dissonance (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#cognitive) of his secret life. In the many years since then, I have seen and heard plenty about that spook toll on people’s lives, including their families.
Spooks aren’t spooks just for the heck of it, and I doubt that many of them thought that they would become spooks when they grew up, just like few hookers (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#hooker) ever aspired to that “career” when young. Spooks are professionals who protect the interests of their employers, and relatively few are psychopaths, but chumps who believe in the “cause,” as those employees work partly for “psychic income” and come cheaper than “break glass in case of fire” psychopaths (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#serving), who must be used very carefully, because they will instantly turn on their employers for the right price. The chumps are infinitely more loyal. John Perkins (http://ahealedplanet.net/other.htm#neocolonialist) envied the naïveté of those who worked for him, and a close friend once worked in such an operation. He never caught on to the real game being played, and I don’t have the heart to try to tell him, and it would risk our relationship if I did.
When I met Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#voice2) through one of those larger-than-life events, his company was on the way to being bludgeoned out of existence by the gangsters who run my home state (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#seattle1), and a real-life psychopathic hit man was involved (http://ahealedplanet.net/hitman.htm). It was educational to see how easily he duped people by playing to their self-interest. My boss helped engineer the theft of Dennis’s company (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=602&viewfull=1#post602), and the ringleaders may well have been on Godzilla’s payroll as contract agents, as Ken Hodgell was (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/81-Vignettes-from-my-journey-and-how-I-learned-what-I-did-and-came-to-my-approach?p=206&viewfull=1#post206), whom we met the next year. They were all Mormons, and I doubt that it was a coincidence (http://ahealedplanet.net/journey.htm#mormon).
God only knows how much spook surveillance Dennis was under in those days, but it was substantial. The so-called White Hats (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page3?p=623&viewfull=1#post623) also took interest, and I am not sure how long ago their interest began, but they began contacting us directly in Boston, and we got the first friendly buyout offer in Boston (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#ten). The next year, the CIA openly got involved, and they simply added a couple of zeroes to the initial offer (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#offer), which I came to discover was also standard procedure (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page3?p=623&viewfull=1#post623).
When I was with Dennis, he played secrecy games, which ended up costing me greatly, and I hated every minute of playing the secrecy game. I eventually realized that if you have to play the secrecy game, you are defeated before you begin. That is one reason why the choir (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir) will not be comprised of anonymous people. They are going to be worse than worthless for what I have in mind. Complete transparency is the only route with a prayer for this epochal task (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#worked). I have likely been under constant surveillance since the 1980s. It just comes with the territory, and I don’t lose any sleep over it.
But I also don’t make it easy for the spooks, such as trying to stir things up in Washington D.C. (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#activism) or holding a conference (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#conferences). Those are suicidal behaviors in this milieu, and if you are “lucky,” you will only have your life wrecked or get run out of your home nation (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=694872&viewfull=1#post694872).
I find it somewhat amusing that free energy newbies almost always get the risks entirely backwards. They live in quaking fear of Godzilla’s minions (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc), but then proselytize to their social circles, which is where the greatest risk is, by far. Only people like Dennis, Brian, Greer (http://ahealedplanet.net/journey.htm#adamiak), Trombly, and me have anything to fear from Godzilla on the free energy front, and I do what I can to stay relatively low on the radar (http://ahealedplanet.net/risk.htm#graphic). Nobody who gets involved with my effort needs to fear spook interference, but they also have to be vigilant and not do naive and stupid things. Not paranoia (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#weakness), but awareness.
After staggering from my home town in 1990, radicalized, I hit the books (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page7?p=739&viewfull=1#post739) and soon discovered Ralph McGehee’s work (http://ahealedplanet.net/mcgehee.htm). He is at the pinnacle of credibility for whistleblowers: a career CIA agent who went through immense legal battles to publish his memoirs, and whose life was a made a living hell for daring to do it (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#mcgehee).
In the years since Ralph published his memoirs, a kind of spook “whistleblower (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#whistleblower)” cottage industry has grown, and I am regularly bombarded with the latest “revelation” from those self-professed “whistleblowers.” Virtually none of them have any credibility with me. They are nearly all going to be compromised in one way or another, even if they were genuine, and most likely aren’t. The spook world does not leave much in the way of paper trails, so almost anybody can claim that they were a spook (or get the “inside scoop” from spooks), and provide almost no evidence at all to support their wild claims. Most of those “insider revelations” are disinformation, to put it politely.
I certainly can’t out “cloak-and-dagger” the spooks, and it is foolish and potentially suicidal to try, but all sorts of newbies think that they can play that game, as they think that they can live out some kind of fantasy. The people that I seek need to raise their games far above those adolescent levels. The spooks are definitely a potential hazard for what I do, but I do what I can to give them a wide berth and build something that is not very vulnerable to their activities. They are watching, and they can keep watching for all I care. They can stay in the shadows and slink away with my blessings in the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5), in which secrecy games no longer make any sense. The can even let go of those dark activities and learn to live in the light. That is unlikely, but very possible for those who did not quite sell their souls.
Best,
Wade

Hi:
I am going to go fairly quiet over the rest of the month, as my day job goes nuclear. But I want to briefly discuss one important lesson that my journey taught me. My days with Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=601&viewfull=1#post601) were the big class in which I learned my most important lessons (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page6?p=708&viewfull=1#post708) in no uncertain terms. The subsequent years of study were largely about seeing how our experiences fit a larger pattern of how the world really works, not the propaganda version (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm) that is taught by the various Establishments. That was not my intent when I hit the books, but it began to become clear.
When I saw the media just make it up as it went regarding us (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page5?p=687&viewfull=1#post687), it fit a pattern that I later discovered through long years of study, that lying to the public is perhaps the media’s primary function (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#big). What I learned about personal integrity being the world’s scarcest commodity (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#burn) was confirmed repeatedly during my subsequent years of study and experience. There were many of those kinds of lessons, in which years of study showed our experiences to be part of a larger pattern that goes way back.
But those years of study also allowed for ever-larger patterns to appear, largely based on the findings of scientists and historians. Some of the “way back” patterns go back to the beginning of life on Earth (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#luca) and a watershed event was when complex life began to become social (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialreason). Even plants can be social, as can be seen in The Hidden Life of Trees (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page6?p=781&viewfull=1#post781).
I did not develop my epochal framework (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochaltable) until relatively late in my studies, and it became clear that human sociality was dependent on each epoch’s energy levels. For the past three epochs, human biology has essentially been the same. What changed was the energy surplus (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#energysurplus) of each epoch, first and foremost. Everything else followed from that. Almost nobody ever mentally escaped the constraints of their epochs. In the late Second Epoch, killing strangers on sight (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#deathrate) was normal. In the Third Epoch, turning people into property (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#slaverybeginning) was normal. In the Fourth Epoch, becoming faceless cogs in some industrial, commercial, or governmental enterprise is normal. In the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5), working for a wage, for survival, and the like will be seen like today’s Fourth Epoch peoples look at slavery, as some barbaric relic of a bygone epoch. Warfare (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#peacekeeping) will also be seen as a primitive mark of those prior epochs of scarcity and fear (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#coming).
However, unlike the prior epochal events, making this one happen (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#worked) will require an unprecedented act of integrity and sentience, which I suppose is fitting, given what the Fifth Epoch means. But it only needs a tiny fraction of humanity (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#numbers) to initiate it. Indeed, only a tiny fraction of humanity is fit for the task (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=308&viewfull=1#post308).

Hi:
I was driven from my sleep recently, by what was kind of a nightmare, seemingly triggered about recent reading on the Permian extinction (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page7?p=878&viewfull=1#post878) and thinking about our current ice age. This will take a little telling. That recent paper that is being trumpeted by Global Warming deniers highlights several important issues. The Capitanian and Permian extinctions coincided with huge volcanic events, and the ultimate cause was the formation of Pangea (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#pangaeaforms). The volcanic events (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#permianwarming) ultimately ended a 100-million year ice age, and continued volcanism led to a 200-million-year greenhouse Earth (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#globalwarming) that the dinosaurs thrived in. The formation of Pangea exposed 90% of the continental shelves, which is the abode of most marine life. A brief ice age would have exposed even more of the shelves, and it appears that a hydrogen sulfide event accompanied it (https://cosmosmagazine.com/palaeontology/marine-life-suffocated-during-end-permian-mass-extinction), which was a coup de grace for marine life, and perhaps also on land. Did a wild swing in the chaos of that ending ice age do in most marine life? Wild swings also characterized the snowball Earth that preceded the eon of complex life (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#shuram), which was also a time of a supercontinent. The wild swings likely have a lot to do with mass extinctions (and warming has been implicated (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#petm) more than once, although cooling (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#cryogenian) seems to be implicated more often), as conditions change faster than life can adapt to them. There are some winners, while most lose.
Humanity is causing the latest wild swing, mostly due to extracting and burning Earth’s hydrocarbon deposits, essentially creating an artificial global volcano, which I will contribute to in a few minutes when I drive to work. But my quasi-nightmare was around the current ice age that we are in. The last glacial interval had radically different vegetation than today (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Last_glacial_period#/media/File:Last_Glacial_Maximum_Vegetation_Map.svg). I have read people lauding our polluting ways, as it may have already delayed the next glacial interval by 50,000 years or so. But the human saga will be resolved very soon. We are going to get over the hump of integrity and sentience required to get into the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5), or we are going to precipitate a mass extinction that may take us with it (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#spaceshipearth). The ice age that we are in the midst of will not affect that outcome. The return of the ice sheets is way too far off to matter. And if humanity attains the Fifth Epoch, there is going to be a radically different relationship with Earth and her ecosystems. It could look a lot like that heavenly Roads world (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?32399-A-Future-Earth&p=672748&viewfull=1#post672748). And then we will see if returning ice sheets are in the cards, or if they will even matter.

Hi:
In the next week, I plan to post my final lessons learned post, to finish off this sequence of the series (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=601&viewfull=1). I have been sketching out its themes. In the meantime, I am working long hours, and this post will revisit a familiar theme, on the megafauna extinctions and the real world of science. What spurred it was recent reading on the Permian extinction (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page7?p=878&viewfull=1#post878). Climate change related to volcanism (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#permianwarming), on a supercontinent that already presented great stresses on land and marine life, chemically and otherwise, with collapsing oxygen levels (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#turbinal), were related to a series of extinctions the began 20 million years (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#olsonsextinction) before the end extinction (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#permianextinction). That controversy, as far as just what the causal mechanisms were, will likely outlive me, and that is normal science at work. I have written plenty on scientific literacy (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=313&viewfull=1#post313), which is not about knowing the answers so much as knowing the questions and processes, and thinking through the issues for one’s self. That is where we build the mental muscles of scientific literacy, and the critical-thinking aspect of scientific literacy can serve us well in many key areas. It is one reason why scientific literacy will be an important quality of the choir (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir).
For the most recent extinction, of the large animals on several continents (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#australianmegafauna), there is a clique of scientists, largely from Australia, that is obsessed about climate change, and I believe that they either have academic tunnel vision or are being disingenuous. If I had to guess their motivation, it seems to be absolving humanity from causing those extinctions, perhaps to somehow rehabilitate various indigenous peoples. It may not be entirely conscious on their part, or at least for most of them.
The dinosaur extinction became a kind of scientific parlor game (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#dinosaurextinction2), and the current equivalent seems to be the mammoth extinctions, and I have become tired of seeing various parties sally forth in attempting to explain the mammoth extinctions as anything other than human agency, and I recently saw those Australian scientists trumpet another “climate change did it” paper on the mammoth extinctions. Such papers suffer from tunnel vision at best.
I recently read The Monkey’s Voyage (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page12?p=863&viewfull=1#post863), and it was a marvelous book on how species have dispersed across Earth, and the monkey’s journey from Africa to South America was perhaps the most epic of the dispersals, hence the book’s title. As a sidelight, the book discussed extinction and survival dynamics.
One of most wrong-headed aspects of the infatuation with the mammoth extinctions, especially all attempts to explain human agency away, which seems to be the primary goal of most such theorists, is that mammoths and mastodons were merely one of the most iconic animals to suddenly go extinct when behaviorally modern humans arrived on the scene. Going after the mammoth extinctions with climate change, bolide event, and other explanations, which “coincidentally” absolve humanity of responsibility, is to ignore key aspects of the current ice age and how the megafauna survived the glacial intervals just fine (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#iceageeurope1).
I recently linked to a vegetation map (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Last_glacial_period#/media/File:Last_Glacial_Maximum_Vegetation_Map.svg) from the last glacial interval. The rainforest completely disappeared in the bonobo home range (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#bonobo1), where they have been isolated for more than a million years, and they did fine every time that their preferred habitat disappeared. On continental land masses, it is pretty easy for animals to migrate to where their best habitats are. Their numbers would certainly decline when most of their habitat shrank, but they all adapted. There have been no mass extinctions of note since the 200-million-year greenhouse Earth phase finally came to an end about 35 million years ago (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#icehouse). All species since then have been adapted to icehouse Earth conditions. The closest was the mid-Miocene extinctions of 14 million years ago (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#miocenecooling), but it was trivial compared to other events.
Until the rise of humans, the elephant family was the most successful land mammal ever (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#elephantsuccess). Like humans, elephants evolved in Africa, and their high intelligence, huge size (adults had no predators), prehensile trunks, and opportunistic feeding patterns meant that they thrived in every place on Earth that they could get to. They could not swim to Australia and had nothing to eat on Antarctica, but flourished everyplace else, at least until humans arrived, and then they quickly went extinct everywhere but Africa and parts of Asia, and that was very likely because humans evolved alongside those elephants, which learned to survive being around those super-predatory humans.
While Africa retained nearly all of its megafauna with the rise of humans, Australia and the Americas quickly lost theirs, and elephants prospered in the Americas for many millions of years, to suddenly all go extinct when humans arrived (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#clovis), along with nearly all of the other megafauna, and climate change somehow did it. The bald fact is that the preferred habitat of mammoths and mastodons never disappeared in the past 15 million years, it only moved north and south with the advancing and retreating ice sheets, which they easily migrated with, and those elephants survived in the most marginal environments of the elephant family. One elephant species abounded in the Americas, and there is evidence that people made homes from their hides (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cuvieronius#South_America) before they quickly went extinct. That was just like what happened when behaviorally modern humans met mammoths in Eurasia and made their short-lived mammoth villages (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gravettian).
A related elephant also heavily populated the Americas, to quickly go extinct (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stegomastodon) when humans arrived. I regard it as either crazy or dishonest to keep flogging the climate change explanation for the megafauna extinctions, especially where the elephant family is concerned. It is time to put the mammoth extinctions to bed. All of the “nuance (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#climatechange)” that I see seems designed to obscure the factor that dwarfed everything else: people. It did not matter what the climate was doing when people arrived. The easy meat was doomed.
It can be very educational, however, to watch those climate change advocates for the megafauna extinctions (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#climatechange2) while watching Global Warming deniers ply their trade (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/90-Global-Warming-Peak-Oil-and-related-topics?p=463&viewfull=1#post463). Although seeming to come from opposite ends of the spectrum, they are actually blood brothers, as both groups labor to absolve humanity of responsibility for our impacts on this planet. The conflicts of interest among the Global Warming deniers are more blatant, but the climate change advocates for the megafauna extinctions are also defending their in-group (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ingroup): humanity.
These issues serve to highlight my journey’s primary lesson (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page6?p=708&viewfull=1#post708): personal integrity is the world’s scarcest commodity, and scientists and academics (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#objectivity) certainly do not reside at some loftier level of integrity. As Uncle Howard noted long ago (http://ahealedplanet.net/columbus.htm#zinn), their interest-conflicted work can be quite deadly. In Western medicine, it can be truly deadly (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#racket).

Hi:
This is a short addendum to the previous post. Developing scientific literacy in these areas not only can help hone one’s critical thinking skills, but people can use them to make their own assessments of the evidence. Not necessarily at the specialist level, but deeply enough to understand the issues, think about it by themselves, and begin making the connections that can lead to a comprehensive perspective (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#dominant).
For instance, on species dispersals, refugia, speciation (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#mendel), radiation (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#adaptive), and extinction (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#extinction), people can develop their own informed views on the matter, even if it just chewing on the information for some time. That is what scientists do when they come up with their testable hypotheses (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#theories). For instance, monkeys and apes (AKA simians (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simian)) can’t swim. Humans are the only member of the line that can. Elephants, however, can swim. The leading hypothesis for how monkeys made it to South America (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#monkeysplit) is that some were washed down something like the Congo, on a vegetation raft, around 40 million years ago, and like shipwrecked sailors, survived some weeks as the currents took them across an Atlantic Ocean that was maybe half the width of today’s, as far as the distance between Africa and South America went, and there may have been some islands between those continents, which would have made the feat easier.
An ape would be too big to make such a trip, and elephants surely could not have rafted over or swum. Elephants made it to the Western Hemisphere via the Arctic during the warm Miocene (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#miocene), but those Miocene apes (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#apemigration) were not adaptable to cold like elephants were, so they never made it past Eurasia. Similarly, it seems that no placental land mammal, other than some rafting rodents (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fauna_of_Australia#Placental_mammals) (and some also rafted from Africa to South America (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caviomorpha)), made it to Australia from Asia, as the ocean barrier (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sahul_Shelf) was too formidable for swimming or accidental rafting. Humans were the first significant placental mammal to migrate to Australia, and it was not until humans invented boats (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#founderexit).
People can think about those events for themselves, and conclude what was likely, what was not, and why. That can lead to a deeper understanding of how our world works, and that is always good work.

I have been reading books
1) The Monkeys Voyage
2) Man Energy Society
A very interesting book, which I liked for its very clear explanation of energy use and loss at every stage from production, transportation to final use.
3) Sex at Dawn: The Prehistoric Origins of Modern Sexuality
This is an interesting book that argues that our sexuality is on the path of bonobos, more than that of gorillas.
Still to read
1) Anthropology of War
2) The hidden life of trees

Hi Freeknowledge:
Good to see you doing your homework (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1140871&viewfull=1#post1140871). Yes, I like to think that we are going down the bonobo path (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#bonobo1). I am putting Sex at Dawn on my list.
Yesterday, while in my crazy work environment, an idea for a new table in my big essay popped into my head. It will be a when, where, who, what, how, and why table on the Epochal Events (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochaltable). The gist of it will be…
The first event (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal1): c. 2.5 mya to 1.0 mya, East or South Africa, australopiths/Homo habilis/Homo erectus, stone tools/fire, upright apes learned to make stone tools and control fire, manual dexterity and increasing intelligence, forced to leave the trees, learned to walk upright, and intelligently used hands to develop new energy technologies.
The second event (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal2): c. 60 kya, East Africa, behaviorally modern humans (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#leap), super-predation, humanity conquered all ecosystems, primarily fueled by Earth’s large terrestrial animals, and a likely crisis at home drove the Founder Group to leave Africa (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#founderexit).
The third event (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal3): c. 11 kya, Fertile Crescent, women, domesticating plants, plants with edible energy stores were cultivated, large animals rendered extinct (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#australianmegafauna) in region where plants could be successfully cultivated.
The fourth event (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal4): 1709-1710, England, Abraham Darby (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#coke) and Thomas Newcomen (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#steamengine1), use of coal for smelting metal and powering engines, controlled burning of coal in new applications, centuries after a deforested England turned to coal (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#domesday), and those inventions founded a new Epoch.
The fifth event (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5) has not happened yet, at least for public consumption. If it happens and the whole story can be told, the summary will look something like this: 20th century, United States of America, various inventors (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ideal) and private/governmental interests, technologies developed that harvest energy from the zero-point field (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#zpf), the technologies generally relied on magnetics, the mastery of electricity, some extraterrestrial assistance and captured technologies (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ufo2), and late-20th century energy crises (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#journeys), as fossil fuels became depleted, and the sequestering of those technologies by the global elite (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc) was finally overcome (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir).
Time for another long day.

I have been thinking about Mr. Mentor's engine (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#glimpse) there are 2 distinct phases
1) Convert high pressure steam to pressurized liquid
2) Use pressurized liquid to run the turn the wheels/run the car.
2) above is a hydraulic motor which is 90% efficient.
1) above involves steam working on itself without any rejection of heat to a sink, so it has to be 100% minus
frictional/mechanical losses. Lets say we lose 10% so 90% efficiency.
This tells me that the overall efficiency is 80%, the best power plants today are 60% efficient with the latest two stage conversion technology.
The genius of Mr. Mentor is that the conversion works in the liquid phase so avoiding the problems of loss of energy seen with the physics
of working is the gas phase.
If Mr. Mentor's engine is added to any heat pump even with COP 2 one would get more energy than that put in. With Dennis heat pump's COP
of 6 one would get 4.8 times energy that was input. This fundamentally alters our life. It is Free Energy extracted from environment. Not the
FE of Sparky Sweet which is different technology.

Hi Freeknowledge (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1141481&viewfull=1#post1141481):
I spent a long time in analysis of Mr. Mentor’s engine (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#glimpse) and Dennis’s heat pump (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#new). Both are amazing technologies, and could they work together to produce FE? I don’t know. We were trying to find out when we got the boom lowered on us (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#mr). In the entire history of FE attempts, it is one of the more tantalizing, although I am also the first to admit that what Sparky had (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ideal) blew those technologies away, and what my friend was shown (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#underground) was the 35th generation or so beyond what Sparky and others like him developed in their shops and garages. Fischer’s engine (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#fischer) was also very interesting, and Dennis ultimately spent a few fruitless years trying to develop it before Fischer took the money and ran, in typical inventor style.
I will take a minute before rushing off to work and another 70-80 hour week, and repeat a theme that I have discussed before, of grounding (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=962347&viewfull=1#post962347). A big reason for my big essay’s long, slow journey through the history of life on Earth and humanity’s Epochs is to ground the energy issue with my readers, and when they reach the FE issue, they can perhaps stay grounded and not fly off into the numerous unproductive directions (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#approaches) that I have witnessed over the years. Staying grounded while merely thinking about the biggest event in the human journey is not easy. I constantly encounter people who want to rush out and “do something,” and I have yet to see even one of them who was not heading straight toward disaster. This has to be a long, slow journey, taken by people who are grounded, or it will not go anywhere or will become a flaming catastrophe. I have lived through enough of those for one lifetime.
As an aside, if you look at my recent post on humanity’s epochs (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page7?p=886&viewfull=1#post886), some kind of energy crisis likely contributed to each one. It was necessity and survival, not a sense of adventure.
The homework that Freeknowledge is doing is part of my curriculum, and helps people stay grounded.

Wade,
You have seen me struggle with understanding Dennis heat pumps and Mr. Mentor engine over the years. Although I am trained as a (Computer Science) Engineer, the underlying concepts eluded me for years. It is only after deep study and thanks to Dennis video on youtube that I finally understand enough that I can confidently say that it would work. There might be a fatal flaw in my understanding, but the probability of that is low. Studying Fischer engine also helped.
Mentor's engine accumulator and hydraulic engine is almost the same as that of Fischer engine. Both work on the saturated liquid line or close to it, the efficiency for conversion is high when operating on that line.
For lay people the heat pump can be compared to PV solar panel, in the sense that it takes energy from the environment.
although I am also the first to admit that what Sparky had (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ideal) blew those technologies away, and what my friend was shown (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#underground) was the 35th generation or so beyond what Sparky and others like him developed in their shops and garages.
This is one thing that thoroughly confused me for years. You use Free Energy to refer to two things
1) FE from heat pump and Mr. Mentor engine
2) FE from ZPE
FE from heat pump and Mr. Mentor panel can be explained by standard mainstream physics.
FE from ZPE is not accepted by mainstream physics.
Given the power of ZPE no wonder you talk and think of it. However understanding the difference between them and thinking deeply about FE from heat pump and heat engine, helped me to clearly think and understand your message.

Hi:
I decided years ago to reveal his name after he died, and this is very appropriate for one of my last lessons learned posts (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page6?p=708&viewfull=1). It was David Rockefeller (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Rockefeller) who called Dennis at home (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=694872&viewfull=1#post694872), and that story takes a little telling. It was far from the first time (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=598&viewfull=1#post598) that the Rockefellers got involved (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#rockefeller2), and it would be no surprise to discover that they were part of the billion dollar offer (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#offer) that the CIA delivered to Dennis.
When the rocket took off in Ventura (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page4?p=654&viewfull=1#post654), it was because of Dennis’s USA Today ads. Dennis advertised in USA Today for more than 20 years.
David Rockefeller handpicked every American president since Jack Kennedy (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page8?p=773&viewfull=1#post773), and he owned the Bushes, who had been Rockefeller fixers from way back, serving the Rockefellers even before Prescott Bush (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samuel_P._Bush#Career).
In 1999, David Rockefeller called Dennis at home to discuss one of Dennis's USA Today free-energy ads, before the ad ran. He tried to dissuade Dennis from his efforts, as they would make people in high places unhappy. Alison (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/81-Vignettes-from-my-journey-and-how-I-learned-what-I-did-and-came-to-my-approach?p=211&viewfull=1#post211) answered the phone that fateful morning, she is completely unfazed by people like that, and called to Dennis across their home, “Dennis, David Rockefeller is on the phone.”
Naming Rockefeller like this also emphasizes another lesson of my journey: the Rockefellers are not at the top of the global power structure. David likely was not a Global Controller (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc). We had interactions with the GCs, and they don’t call people at home, using their names. You have never heard of the people at the GC level. The Rothschilds also got involved, and again used their names, which means that they are not GCs, either. They are from the old guard, and there is plenty of “churn” at the top. If the Rockefellers and Rothschilds were ever at the top, it was long ago.
One of the greatest lessons of my journey with Dennis was realizing how multi-level organized suppression (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#levels1) is. Whether it was the local electric industry (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#seattle1), national-level institutions, the oil-industry level, or the Global Controller level, they all played the same game, and were all likely acting largely independently. Bill the BPA hit man (http://ahealedplanet.net/hitman.htm) worked for the GCs for a time, but it is hard to say exactly when that relationship began. He cultivated his fake alternative energy credentials long before he was sicced on Dennis’s company. Like Ken Hodgell (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/81-Vignettes-from-my-journey-and-how-I-learned-what-I-did-and-came-to-my-approach?p=206&viewfull=1#post206), he was likely a contract agent and had to fend for himself when not performing hit man duties. Bill’s tactic of using the legal system as a weapon against the people that he stole from predated his phony bankruptcy lawsuit (http://ahealedplanet.net/hitman.htm#bk) in Seattle, and that behavior has continued in recent years. If you work for the right people, the legal system is yours to use with impunity, and you are immune from prosecution (http://ahealedplanet.net/hitman.htm#sabotage1) for your evil deeds, although Ken eventually lost that protection. Contract agents are expendable, as my close relative was (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#cia). If I outlive that household-name diplomat that my relative worked for, I may reveal his name, and he also worked for the Rockefellers (2025 update - it was Henry Kissinger). It is a small world at those levels of the game.

Wade

Hi Krishna (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1141678&viewfull=1#post1141678) (FKA Freeknowledge):
Mr. Mentor’s engine (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#glimpse) is extraordinary even if it could not make free energy, as is Fischer’s (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#fischer). Neither one was invented for free energy purposes, but to make more efficient engines. The second law of thermodynamics (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second_law_of_thermodynamics) says that you can’t make free energy by using heat engines and heat pumps (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#carnot), or, at least, the mainstream interpretation of that so-called “law.” But soon after Dennis got his naïve idea of marrying his heat pump with a low-temperature turbine (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=613&viewfull=1#post613), we encountered scientists who challenged the second law. Eugene Mallove told me that the second law was rubbish, and that he reproduced Reich’s results (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#reich) with a Faraday cage (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faraday_cage). Mr. Mentor and Fischer believed that they could make free energy by marrying the panels of Dennis’s heat pump (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#new) with their engines. Fischer tried for years, largely without success. They once got his engine running for a whole day, but it started with a “battery” of a cold heat sink, so I doubt that they proved free energy before Fischer ran off.
Like Sparky Sweet’s device (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5) defied mainstream notions of electricity, with an ungrounded circuit, Mr. Mentor’s engine did not need a low-temperature heat sink to exhaust to. That was a mind-boggling, yet simple, aspect of his engine. My jury is still out on whether Mr. Mentor’s or Fischer’s engine could produce free energy, but people such as Mallove (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#portland) said that such contraptions could work. It is widely considered one of the more promising paths to free energy today (http://ahealedplanet.net/hooked.htm#mallove). Studying the current theories (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page3?p=632&viewfull=1#post632) can be very helpful, and at least make what Mr. Mentor, Fischer, Mallove, and others alleged become comprehensible.
All the theory in the world, however, can be killed by simple facts, which Einstein noted. All theories eventually die. The technologies that my friend saw (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#underground) takes the corpus of today’s scientific theories and chucks them out the window. As Einstein said, one day, his theories would be proven wrong, but the best parts of them would survive in the subsequent theories. That is how science works. Mainstream science has a long way to go to catch up to the physics behind what Godzilla (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc) has in his Golden Hoard. That is where the good stuff is. Science in the Fifth Epoch will bear only a faint resemblance to today’s, and that heavenly Roads world (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?32399-A-Future-Earth&p=672748&viewfull=1#post672748) provides a glimpse.
For me, free energy and antigravity are plenty to usher in the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5), and those technologies are already here. As Greer (http://ahealedplanet.net/journey.htm#greer) has said, we only need a version 1.0 of free energy to get the Fifth Epoch going, not the version 35.0 that Godzilla has. I see my effort (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir) ultimately helping a version 1.0 get built and be given to humanity, or helping version 25.0 or later come in from the shadows. Either way works for me. But it has to be a loving effort and avoid the paths to disaster (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#approaches) that so many have trod. David Rockefeller (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page13?p=888&viewfull=1#post888) likely helped wreck my life, but I said a prayer for him yesterday. He’ll need it. His passing is generating plenty of articles like this (http://www.mintpressnews.com/the-true-legacy-of-david-rockefeller/226084/), and deservedly so. Dark stuff.

Hi:
I’ll be working insane hours until next weekend, so will be pretty quiet. I want to briefly revisit the David Rockefeller issue. I have very close knowledge of some of the cloak-and-dagger methods of Rockefeller’s circle that predates my days with Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=601&viewfull=1#post601). Some has come into the light, such as Rockefeller’s involvement in October Surprise (https://consortiumnews.com/2017/03/21/david-rockefeller-october-surprise-case/) (which was no surprise (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#casolaro) :) ). Rockefeller’s bank (Chase Manhattan) wiped out Dennis’s manufacturer during his Seattle days (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=598&viewfull=1#post598), and Rockefeller’s calling Dennis at home (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page13?p=888&viewfull=1#post888) just before the government wiped him out was just him getting more directly involved, still minding the store at age 93, instead of having his underlings doing it all. When Mr. Big gets directly involved, there will be dire consequences.
While plenty of articles (http://www.mintpressnews.com/the-true-legacy-of-david-rockefeller/226084/) are stressing Rockefeller’s nefarious international activities, and even Global Controller-ish (http://www.crossroad.to/Quotes/brainwashing/rockefeller-mind-control.htm) activities, I don’t see anybody writing about his domestic activities that helped prevent anything being used other than hydrocarbons, cars, etc. He was all about business as usual for the oligarchy, both internationally and domestically, and technology suppression (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#levels1) was one of his primary activities, which has been completely silent in the narratives that I have seen.
The Dulles brothers (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#dulles) were among David’s many assets, Nixon was also their creature, and the Rockefellers were almost certainly involved in the JFK hit (http://educationforum.ipbhost.com/index.php?/topic/20494-bill-decker-and-john-tower/&page=3). If the real story of the Rockefeller dynasty (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#rockefeller1) was ever told, it would curl people’s hair. Of course, the Clintons and Bushes (https://www.yahoo.com/news/latest-george-hw-bush-rockefeller-182845659.html) are both gushing over Rockefeller right now, who was their master. Brian O’s (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm) buddy Jon Rappoport (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#rappoport) wrote a little ditty when Trump was elected (http://thenewsdoctors.com/david-rockefeller-gives-donald-trump-marching-orders-jon-rappoports-satirical-tribute-to-oligarchs/), which was likely not far from the truth. But again, Rockefeller was not at the top (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc), and likely not even close to it. Every American president since JFK was a puppet and knew it (http://ahealedplanet.net/journey.htm#presidents). Rockefeller was one of the puppeteers, and may have been the primary one.

Hi:
I am working completely insane hours, getting a few winks in my car, and other mayhem, so my posts are getting fewer. I am far from the only person (https://www.peakprosperity.com/blog/108183/why-market-needs-crash) remarking on The Everything Bubble (http://ahealedplanet.net/savings.htm#everything), as all of the world’s banks go on a money-printing binge. When it comes, the collapse will be swift and catastrophic.
I still read what I can, and a new paper (http://www.nature.com/nature/journal/v543/n7646/full/nature21700.html) that proposes shaking up the dinosaurian family tree (https://phys.org/news/2017-03-roots-dinosaur-family-tree.html) is making waves (https://blogs.scientificamerican.com/tetrapod-zoology/ornithoscelida-rises-a-new-family-tree-for-dinosaurs/). It may resolve the issue of why bird-hipped dinosaurs supposedly did not give rise to birds. I’ll certainly include its findings in my essay update, around here (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ornithischians), but it is too soon to shake up that tree. We’ll see what future studies bring. That is how science is supposed to work, and long-held assumptions can vanish in the light of new evidence.

Hi:
Real briefly, before I go to work, I may put up my own “fake news” post one day, but it will mostly be about the fake news in the mainstream media (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#big). I was spurred to write this from an article in Scientific American that I read yesterday. It really helps to know the bias and ideological commitments of any media, as they all have them. Even a great publication like Z Magazine is not immune. Every issue has pictures of protestors holding up their hand-made signs, and Z Magazine’s founder openly admits that he is all about coercing the elites to relinquish their power via protest (http://ahealedplanet.net/radleft.htm#coerce). But he is ideologically opposed to the very idea of how much influence those elites might have (http://ahealedplanet.net/radleft.htm#religion). Those disjointed stances took me many years to understand.
In the April 2017 issue (https://www.scientificamerican.com/magazine/sa/2017/04-01/) of Scientific American was an article about online conspiracy theories, how they spread, who subscribes to them, and how to fight them. While pointing out some important aspects of the conspiracist (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#conspiracism) “echo chamber,” the authors uncritically worshipped the Establishment, although they seemed oblivious to the fact that they were. Anybody who challenges vaccination has a screw loose, although the editor of Lancet himself said that up to half of all medical research was worthless (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/80-Vaccination?p=189&viewfull=1#post189) due to conflicts of interest, and you will be hard-pressed to find an enlightened doctor who believes in vaccination (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/80-Vaccination?p=784&viewfull=1#post784), just like enlightened dentists don’t believe in fluoridation. But in the eyes of those conspiracist analysts, they see no problem with such medical interventions, although the conflicts of interest can be mind-boggling. They literally framed the issue as “conspiracy versus science,” which is about the baldest formulation of their ideology that I have seen. There is no such thing as conscious collusion in their worldview. Elites cannot influence events, and other mainstream fairy tales, and those hardnosed scientists cannot seem to fathom why there might be at least some truth to conspiracist lore.
It just highlights the naïveté of scientists (http://ahealedplanet.net/roots.htm#naive), and hardly an issue of Scientific American fails to include a materialist sermon, often delivered by materialist zealot Michael Shermer. I am not saying that Scientific American is worthless – far from it - but as with any media, its bias is important to know, if the pursuit of the truth is your goal. You are not going to find unbiased information, anywhere on Earth.
One reason for my very human rendering of my journey is so that my readers can tell what my biases might be.

Hi:
I just finished an 80-hour week, and my death march is not over yet. I’ll get a brief break, of maybe a day or two in the coming week, and then it is another march to mid-May. I am getting too old for this. :) Corporate America is a truly insane place to work, but this is the planet I came to live on, and that voice in my head (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#voice) led me into business. It has some explaining to do. :)
When the dust briefly settles, I will be back to posting, but also working on that essay update.
Sears was legendary for stealing from inventors, and Detroit’s car companies are largely criminal enterprises (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page13?p=888&viewfull=1#post888), and seeing Sears go the way of the dinosaur (https://www.thestreet.com/story/14054951/1/sears-has-finally-admitted-that-it-s-almost-dead.html?puc=yahoo&cm_ven=YAHOO&yptr=yahoo), and watching Detroit crumble, is just karma, as far as I am concerned.
High on my list of writing topics is wrapping up this iteration of the lessons learned (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page13?p=888&viewfull=1) series. Between bouts of grinding away, such as commuting to and from home (been sleeping in my car, too, on the long ones, which has worked out, after a fashion, so I can get more work done), I think plenty on what my effort is all about (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir). It will come through very clearly as I wrap up that series of posts.
Back to the salt mines.
Best,
Wade

Hi:
I have a few minutes this morning, and am thinking about that final post, or series of them, to wrap up my lessons learned thread (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page13?p=888&viewfull=1) for now. If I had to put it in a nutshell, I might call it “developing an epochal perspective.” That is really what I am trying to help my readers achieve. Once they can do that, the path to FE can become pretty clear, and they won’t be distracted by the daily circus, by “solutions” proposed by people firmly stuck in their epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#imagine), and so on. They will keep their eyes on the goal, understand how our world really works, and rise above the egocentric levels of delusion that trap nearly everybody. It took a lifetime to attain the perspective that I have today. I would not wish my journey on anybody, and am trying to help people get there by easier paths. If my path was the only way, almost nobody would “graduate” from the curriculum. But I know that I still seek needles in haystacks (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#numbers), people with highly unusual qualities. They are not extraordinary, but just rare. Caring (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=308&viewfull=1#post308) is really not hard to do, but almost nobody does it to any significant degree.
Sociality is pre-sentient (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialreason), and is worthless for this task. Money is only accounting (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#exchange), retail politicians are merely puppets of the economics interests (http://ahealedplanet.net/roots.htm#politics), all institutions are about survival above all else, and are all mired in scarcity. For people mired in scarcity (http://ahealedplanet.net/hooked.htm#misinformation), the concept of abundance (http://ahealedplanet.net/abund.htm#abundance) is literally beyond their imagining, and when they glimpse it, they react in fear (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level5), as all they can see is their world coming to an end. Denial (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level1) and fear are by far the most common reactions to the idea of free energy and abundance that I have witnessed. We can only get there via love (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#greatest).
Even when people glimpse a world of abundance and are not frightened by the prospect, extremely few of them can relinquish their scarcity-based baggage, and they almost invariably propose paths to free energy and abundance (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#approaches) that have been miserable failures and are often suicidal. When people truly achieve epochal perspectives, the reasons for failure, and the path to success that I propose (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir), will become clear. It might only help a little, but it might be the critical missing piece, and nobody is going to waste their time developing an epochal perspective. Our awareness is all that we take with us when we go (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#afterlife).
Time for work.
Best,
Wade

Hi:
I have a little writing time this week, and I’ll wrap up that lessons learned thread (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page13?p=888&viewfull=1) for now. This will take more than one post. I began my life as a precocious super boy, a bookworm from the time I could walk (http://ahealedplanet.net/paths.htm#bookworm), and was groomed to be a scientist since I was knee-high (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/70-Distinguishing-the-wheat-from-the-chaff-and-my-life-s-journey?p=102&viewfull=1#post102). That year of mystical (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#silva), cultural (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#europe), and energy (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#glimpse) awakening when I was 16 was critical, which set me on my adult path. A few years later, that voice in my head (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#voice) first spoke to me, when asked for, which really began to set my life’s trajectory. Eight disillusioning years later (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=406928&viewfull=1#post406928), I again asked for that voice (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#voice2), for the last time in my life so far (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#voice3). That voice landed me in the middle of the greatest attempt ever made (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#run) to bring alternative energy to the American marketplace, and before that year had ended, I was pursuing free energy (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=611&viewfull=1#post611). I still look back at those events in awe, finding it hard to believe that they happened, and I lived them. Consequently, I find it normal for my story to be met with skepticism. But true skepticism is getting out of one’s armchair and finding out for one’s self, which none of my vociferous critics (http://ahealedplanet.net/critics.htm) have ever done. Some of my assailants were probably professionals, as Mr. Skeptic (http://ahealedplanet.net/dennis.htm#friends) likely was.
The next three years after meeting Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=601&viewfull=1#post601) were my radicalizing years. When the dust settled, my life was shattered and I would never see the world the same way again, and I would likely have little worthwhile to say if not for those years. In the nearly 30 years since then, my life was one of picking up the pieces, deep study (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page7?p=739&viewfull=1#post739), writing (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page9?p=805&viewfull=1#post805), getting back into the fray (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page9?p=806&viewfull=1#post806), pulling back and recovering, more study and writing (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page9?p=809&viewfull=1#post809), then going back at it again (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page11?p=842&viewfull=1#post842), more study (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page11?p=841&viewfull=1#post841), and so on, while juggling my life, digging out of financial abysses, outliving my allies, and getting older, and I turn 60 next year. I am the last man standing (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#adventures) from my close circle. What a long, strange trip it has been. I would not recommend my journey to anybody. What a way to learn.
Little did I know it at the time, but I was developing a comprehensive perspective (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#developing) during my adventures and study, and the learning never ends. It eventually became an epochal perspective (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochaltable). I needed those activities to attain my perspective, for better or worse.
What follows will be the fruit of my life’s journey so far. I don’t know how many more years I have on this planet, but I plan to make them count.
Best,
Wade

Hi:
I’ll start off these ending posts with my journey’s most important lesson, which I have seen so denied and misunderstood over the years: personal integrity is the world’s scarcest commodity (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page6?p=708&viewfull=1#post708). It is just a fact, and no judgment is implied (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#judge1). I resisted that lesson every step of the way, until I had it beaten into my head in no uncertain terms. Of course, few people are willing to admit that fact, as it conflicts with humanity’s egocentric self-image.
I just looked at my list of failed approaches to free energy (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#approaches), and they all were about failures of integrity. Some were blatant, others were subtle, some were on the side of the aspirants, others were on the side of the suppressors, but it always boiled down to a situation of insufficient integrity. Not enough integrity on the side of the aspirants could overcome the complete lack of it on the side of the suppressors. It is almost as simple as an equation, of whatever side has the most “oomph” will prevail. The suppressors’ turf is the dark path (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#serving), and no inherently selfish approach has a prayer, as the aspirants are then playing on the turf of the masters, and it is foolish and even suicidal to try to play that game. It took me many years to articulate what I found unsettling about all mass movement approaches to alternative and free energy (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level10), and I was a spear carrier in five different efforts. My sixth and final effort seeks to avoid the many pitfalls that I witnessed. The integrity issue is merely the love issue (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#greatest). Victims operate from fear (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#weakness), and creators operate from love (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#coming). It is really that simple.
It is normal to desire to be fairly compensated for one’s efforts, but there is nothing “normal” about manifesting the biggest event in the human journey (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5). With the several levels of organized suppression (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#levels1), inventors trying to patent their technologies (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#patent), or go the proprietary technology route (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#proprietary), are defeated before they begin. And little did any of them know it before they began, but the biggest threats to their efforts were themselves and their allies (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#allies), not the agents organized suppression. I began learning that lesson when my boss helped engineer the theft (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=603&viewfull=1#post603) of Dennis’s company in Seattle, and at the moment when it became clear that the theft was successful, all of those “loyal” employees cheered the theft, many of whom gave Dennis a standing ovation on the day I met him (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#whoopee). That was really the first awakening moment (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#salient1) of my journey with Dennis.
Over the next two months, the remaining “loyalists” all dropped out but me (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=605&viewfull=1#post605). In the end, only two dropped out with honor, and several of them later tried to extort money from us (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#extortion). Those were really only gentle previews of what our business associates were really all about, similar to how those attacks by a former girlfriend (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page3?p=622&viewfull=1#post622) were only a gentle preview of the betrayals and attacks that would come from my friends and family, some of which have even continued to this day. By the time it got to me that my own mother was campaigning against me (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=400492&viewfull=1#post400492), it did not even hurt anymore. The thefts and attacks (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#steal) from the employees in Ventura made what happened in Seattle pale to insignificance, and Mr. Engineer’s (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/81-Vignettes-from-my-journey-and-how-I-learned-what-I-did-and-came-to-my-approach?p=208&viewfull=1#post208) and Mr. Researcher’s (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#raid) jumping into bed with Ken Hodgell (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/81-Vignettes-from-my-journey-and-how-I-learned-what-I-did-and-came-to-my-approach?p=206&viewfull=1#post206) and friends (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/81-Vignettes-from-my-journey-and-how-I-learned-what-I-did-and-came-to-my-approach?p=207&viewfull=1#post207) was only icing on the cake. While Mr. Deputy’s evil performance in the courtroom (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page5?p=681&viewfull=1#post681) was the turning point of my life, that pivotal moment was set up by the behaviors of our allies and my family and friends, not so much the agents of organized suppression. Having my face rubbed in evil was educational, to put it mildly.
When the dust finally settled in Ventura, human behavior could never surprise me again. I had my real-world anthropology lesson long before I ever began to study scientific anthropology, which only reinforced what I learned the hard way. For instance, the findings in Moral Origins (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page4?p=653&viewfull=1#post653) only confirmed what I long knew: people can justify anything, with humanity’s “flexible conscience,” even eating their own children.
When I saw Dennis in 2013 (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/81-Vignettes-from-my-journey-and-how-I-learned-what-I-did-and-came-to-my-approach/page3?p=249&viewfull=1#post249), he said that of all the people who ever made it to his inner circle, only Mr. Professor (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#mr) (and his widow) and I walked away with our integrity intact. Everybody else failed the integrity test, at one level or another. I don’t know of anybody else on Earth like Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/lessons.htm#howmany), and countless thousands of people came into his sphere during his journey. Only two made it into the inner circle and left with their integrity intact. I later found that it was a normal ratio. It is just what it is, and it does no good to judge it. This is who humanity is, but the fact is also that with each Epoch of the human journey (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochaltable), as the energy surplus steadily increased, human societies became more humane.
After the easy meat was rendered extinct (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#australianmegafauna) and humans became fiercely territorial again (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#violence1), killing strange men on sight, and trying to slaughter one’s neighbors and steal their women, was standard behavior among Stone Age hunter gatherers, who lived in the most violent phase of the human journey (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#deathrate). With the Inuit, eating one’s children during hard winters was justified, and the elderly were left out in the elements to freeze to death, as feeding and caring for them was too expensive in that energy-scarce culture. Among the African hunter-gatherers who never left their evolutionary homeland, if a woman gave birth to twins, she was allowed to decide which infant to murder, as she could not afford to carry and care for two infants. The “retirement” plan of the Inuit, of leaving their elderly to the freezing elements for a painless death, would not work in Africa, as predators would not allow a peaceful slip into death, so the elderly in Africa were “retired” by sneaking up on them and bludgeoning them with a mighty blow to the backs of their heads. A Fourth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal4) human can scarcely imagine such barbarities, but those were “normal” behaviors for people in the late Second Epoch. We still have the same biological equipment as we did 200,000 years ago (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#sapiens), and behavioral modernity (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#leap) is at least 70,000 years old, so humanity’s seemingly more “civilized” behaviors in subsequent Epochs has nothing to do with some spiritual or biological breakthrough, but the rising standards of living with the higher energy surpluses of each Epoch led to more humane behaviors, because people could afford to be.
The craziness that we see in the USA today (the aftermath of 9/11 (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#wtc) was only a preview) is just what declining empires look like, with the USA’s middle class disintegrating, as the USA entered its energy decline (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#industrialdecline) nearly 50 years ago. Today’s waxing and waning fracking boom is merely sucking the dregs of Earth’s hydrocarbon deposits (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#dregs). The golden age (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#goldenages) of hydrocarbon economies is long gone.
Similarly, I could chronicle the barbarities of the Third Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal3), with the rise of mass warfare (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#warfare), slavery (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#slaverybeginning), awesomely draconian laws (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#laws), and women returning to their subjugated state (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#womenstatus1), after a brief period of Neolithic bliss (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#pristine1), and Fourth Epoch humans would once again regard the Third Epoch in awe, at how primitive such people were. We can see it today, as standard agrarian economy practices still extant invoke revulsion in Fourth Epoch humans, such as stoning adulterous women, or “honor killings (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Honor_killing#Victims_of_rape)” of raped ones, which make the global news whenever they happen.
Virtually everything that has changed in human societies for the past 70,000 years has been from nurture, not nature, and energy surplus levels (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#discretionary) first and foremost. Everything else is merely noise.
Because selfishness is Godzilla’s (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc) turf, only a selfless path to free energy has a prayer, but I know that if I subjected everybody in the choir to the kinds of tests that Dennis survived, I would have a choir (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir) of one. I am not asking for heroic levels of integrity, and those who have to go out and play the free energy hero (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#messiah1), and storm the ramparts with their army, need to look elsewhere. Been there, done that. Those so-called armies have never had the proper motivation.
In the end, humanity’s “flexible conscience,” and abysmal lack of integrity when the chips are down, are the just the facts of existence for our species. Anybody who denies that reality as they sally forth is in for some very rude awakenings, if they survive the experiences. It does no good to judge the terrain that has to be navigated. It is just the reality of the world we live in.
Best,
Wade

Hi:
As a brief addendum to my previous post, I am going to wax a little mystically here. Along with the personal integrity issue, or lack of it, almost nobody has ever escaped the conditioning of their Epoch or been able to even imagine what lied ahead (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#imagine). What I am doing, envisioning aspects of the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5), which are easily predictable when thinking about the ramifications of free energy and related suppressed technologies (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#underground), has never been attempted before, as a way to reach the next Epoch. I am not the only visionary out there (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#visions), for sure, but I am the only one that I know of who is trying this strategy, and the only who is an activist on the free energy front. I don’t know if I will make a dent, but this beats watching TV or YouTube. :)
Teleology (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teleology) is about putting a goal or purpose to things. In evolutionary circles, teleology is generally considered a sin. Evolution is blind, the universe is purposeless, and the like, which are tenets of the religion of our Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/conun.htm#subtle). In that view, humans have no special purpose. Humanity is just another animal, and appeared on the evolutionary scene by chance, and other than precipitating a mass extinction (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#sixth1), humanity will go the way of all other species into extinction one day, and perhaps sooner than later, at the rate we are going (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#spaceshipearth). In the scheme and scale of the cosmos, humanity is nothing more than an “interesting” trend in evolution, which may soon correct itself, as high “intelligence” with manipulative ability can be suicidal for a species (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#age3).
I have had far too many experiences (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#silva) that falsify the materialist models of consciousness that establishment science has erected. In the pile of books next to my bed are Handbook to the Afterlife (https://www.amazon.com/Handbook-Afterlife-Pamela-Rae-Heath/dp/1556438699) and Is There an Afterlife? (https://www.amazon.com/There-Afterlife-Comprehensive-Overview-Evidence/dp/1903816904/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1491435612&sr=1-1&keywords=Is+There+an+Afterlife), which clearly demonstrate that not all scientists are materialists, although even tame challenges from within the ranks (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page2?p=382&viewfull=1#post382) can be treated quite harshly. Brian died in exile, partly because he could no longer drink the materialist Kool-Aid (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#remote).
So, I do not buy the tenets of a random, purposeless universe, and the best scientists will say that while there may not be evidence of purpose, neither is there evidence of purposelessness; today’s science is simply unequipped to address the issue, and the greatest scientists usually had a perspective that could be called at least quasi-mystical (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#mystical).
With that preamble, let me get a little teleological for a moment. I believe that all of Creation has a purpose, and my understanding is that the purpose of physical reality is to express and evolve consciousness. For humans, who are social animals (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialreason), the most enlightened message yet received, and may ever be received, is that all of Creation is one (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#nature). Perhaps its pithiest packaging was Jesus’s “love the enemy (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#enemy),” which in scientific terms might be characterized as the idea that there is no out-group (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ingroup).
I believe that we are here to learn the Creator’s lessons, and creators create with love. That is the great lesson before all of us, and in a world of scarcity and fear (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#coming), only masters such as Jesus (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#infinite) hit the mark, while the rest of us miss it to varying degrees. But in a world of abundance, in which fear is no longer the background hum of our existence (like it was for Frank :) (he is in the “A Little Vision (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/8-Visions-of-Potential-Futures?p=16&viewfull=1#post16)” vignette)), it is going to be far easier for the mass of humanity to get in touch with their hearts, and something that is exceedingly rare today (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=308&viewfull=1#post308) will be normal in the Fifth Epoch. I believe that humanity’s greatest aspiration is to manifest and ground love on this planet, in a way never done before. It has not been an easy trick so far. :) To me, that is humanity’s purpose, and if enough of us can muster the integrity (AKA love), then this world (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?32399-A-Future-Earth&p=672748&viewfull=1#post672748) beckons. My life may well be an audition to incarnate into that world the next time around. I don’t know. Nobody lets me in the on joke, but I know that this world (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#immediate) becomes eminently feasible with the toys in Godzilla’s Golden Hoard, and not only is a loving approach the only worthy one for making the Fifth Epoch manifest, it may also be the only one that will work.
Time for chores.
Best,
Wade

Hi:
Well, it happened. My own forum (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/forum.php) has more visitors than this thread does right now. This Avalon thread will always have a very special place in my heart, and threads like this (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?32399-A-Future-Earth/page7) and this (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?29372-What-technologies-activities-or-concepts-will-be-made-obsolete-by-Free-Energy), but the choir (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir) that I have in mind will be singing on my forum. This thread has been more for choir tryouts than anything else, and a way for the public to reach me, and I have no plans to ever stop posting here. But there has been a steep rise in visits to my site and forum in the past month or so. I don’t know if it is Godzilla’s agents doing the reading or not ( :) ), but it seems to have gotten the attention of some group. Two million views of this thread is not far off (thank you, Russian bots! :) ). Who would have thought?
As an FYI, my own site stats filter out the bots, and after the USA, most readers come to my site from Russia, China, and France (their combined visitors exceed the USA’s). Go figure.

Hi:
The integrity issue trumps all. It does not matter how intelligent or talented people are; if they don’t have integrity, the rest does not matter (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=308&viewfull=1#post308). Some examples can be taken from science and history, such as how a brain-damaging industrial waste received a makeover from poison to compulsory medicine (http://ahealedplanet.net/fluoride.htm), and the situation lasts to this day. Or how mass murdering thieves became national heroes (http://ahealedplanet.net/intro.htm#paradigms), with their greatest achievements/crimes swept under the carpet by historians (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#blueprint). Brains and talent mean nothing, if the integrity is not there. Some of the stupidest things I ever heard came from the mouths of some of the smartest people I knew, and when I thought about how they could do that, it always came down to the integrity issue. People readily sell out their sentience for their self-interest. What attracted me to Dennis and Brian (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#attracted) was their integrity, not their fame, genius, or talent.
That lack of integrity manifests in obvious and subtle ways. It can manifest in feigning interest in free energy (http://ahealedplanet.net/hooked.htm#heinberg), but rejecting very friendly invitations (http://ahealedplanet.net/hooked.htm#invite) from world experts to find out more about the very situations that they write about, and then write “authoritatively” afterward as if they thoroughly investigated the issue and found the “claims” wanting, so that they can keep beating the drums of doom (http://ahealedplanet.net/hooked.htm#austerity) to their rapt audiences.
When physicists parrot “the laws of physics (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level3)” as a way to dismiss even the idea of free energy, they betray their ignorance as well as a lack of integrity. There are no “laws of physics,” only theories, and it is a quasi-religious conceit to call them “laws” at all. The big breakthroughs in science and technology often came from the fringes of the “impossible,” such as powered flight (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#wright), the lightbulb (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#edison), “impossible” microscopes (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#microscopes), “impossible” nuclear reactions (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#yull), an “impossible” heat pump (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#seven), and so on. What my friend witnessed (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#underground) turns the physics textbooks into doorstops.
The circus on the fringes is also due to a lack of integrity. There is a mountain of chaff (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir) for every kernel of wheat on the fringes, and plenty of charlatans play to their undiscerning audiences, as well as disinformation professionals (http://ahealedplanet.net/other.htm#skeptic) who easily sucker the naïve and unwary (http://ahealedplanet.net/skeptic.htm). I watched leading voices in the free energy field eagerly embrace the disinformation specialists (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#libel) while they turned around and attacked Dennis and Brian. It was bizarre to witness at first, but I eventually realized that it was just another variation of this post’s theme.
This also touches on the issue of sentience. The crazed reactions (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#reactions) that Brian got in his ride as the Paul Revere of Free Energy (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#revere), from leading authorities, was about brilliant people selling out their sentience for their self-interest, to the degree that Brian began openly wondering if humanity was a sentient species (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#sentience), and it is a fair question. I call humanity a semi-sentient species; the potential is there, but is rarely achieved, and it always starts in the heart. In-group allegiance (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ingroup), such as waving a flag (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#flag), is something that monkeys can do. Sociality is pre-sentient behavior (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialreason).
Those lessons only became clear after many years. I got over the “hump” of barriers to comprehension during my radicalizing days with Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=601&viewfull=1#post601), so even while I was open to the lessons ahead (and my greatest one (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page13?p=896&viewfull=1#post896) was learned by the end 1988), it still took many years to learn them, and I am still learning. The learning never ends.
What I found was most important was wanting to learn. Just like Heinberg’s feigned interest (http://ahealedplanet.net/hooked.htm#invite), I came into contact with many intellectuals, some of whom were far smarter than me. They really were not interested in learning, but defending their self-serving delusions. After many such encounters, I realized that wanting to learn trumped “intelligence” by a long ways. My big essay, for instance, is not really all that challenging, from an intellectual perspective. What is challenging about my work is how people have to relinquish their self-serving in-group delusions (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#dominant) before they can begin to understand. That is the hard part, and it hinges directly on the integrity issue. Much of my work is about unlearning what we think we know. When people attack me (http://ahealedplanet.net/critics.htm#troll) for challenging their cherished notions, without exception, their notions were based on blind belief, not a careful consideration of the evidence. They “knew” such things not through experience, but because they were taught them while young (while they discarded the truly important lessons taught while young (http://ahealedplanet.net/intro.htm#forgetting)), they never examined those beliefs again, and would defend them to the death. Death threats have been issued over my work.
Those were some of the most important lessons of my journey, and have a great deal to do with my current approach (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir).

Hi:
This will be a current events post, as the USA once again risks igniting a nuclear war. I have been publicly writing about the USA’s imperial behavior (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#attacking) in the Middle East since 1991 (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#jesus), and my published letter (http://www.serendipity.li/wot/wade_iraq.htm) before the USA invaded Iraq predicted the events fairly well. I lost friendships over that letter, as Americans eagerly swallowed the lies, and voices like mine were unwelcome. In that letter, I wrote about the early days of the USA’s cowardly drone warfare, and today, Apple censors drone strike news (http://theantimedia.org/apple-drone-strikes-app/), like good imperial tools.
Those so-called White Helmets in Syria (http://www.activistpost.com/2016/11/fake-news-alert-cnn-finally-admits-white-helmets-staged-fake-video.html) are a public relations outfit (http://www.moonofalabama.org/2016/06/the-usuk-financed-white-helmets-shtick-fake-child-rescued-videos.html) for the USA, not some selfless humanitarians, so their being first-responders (http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-04-08/michael-savage-turns-trump-says-syrian-gas-attack-was-false-flag-operation) for the “chemical attack” is suspicious, as usual. There are credible suspicions that the entire event was a false flag event (http://www.thedailybell.com/news-analysis/false-flag-how-the-u-s-armed-syrian-rebels-to-set-up-an-excuse-to-attack-assad/), although the evidence today suggests that a Syrian bombing raid hit a chemical weapons depot (https://consortiumnews.com/2017/04/07/trumps-wag-the-dog-moment/) maintained by the USA’s assets in Syria.
Assad would have to be completely insane to launch a chemical attack the week after the USA stated that regime change in Syria was off the table. Trump is not the sharpest tool in the shed, and it looks like he has been coopted by the neocons (https://libertyblitzkrieg.com/2017/04/07/prepare-for-impact-this-is-the-beginning-of-the-end-for-u-s-empire/). His foreign policy is fast becoming indistinguishable from Hillary’s (https://zcomm.org/znetarticle/the-u-s-attack-on-al-shayrat-airfield/). As I have stated plenty, it really does not matter much who the sitting president (http://ahealedplanet.net/journey.htm#presidents) is, as the imperial juggernaut steamrolls onward, although the empire is in terminal decline (https://libertyblitzkrieg.com/2017/04/07/prepare-for-impact-this-is-the-beginning-of-the-end-for-u-s-empire/), which I have also been writing about for a long time (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#invading).
On a lighter note, I sent Uncle Ed (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#manufacturing) my annual birthday email. He is 92 now. Ed replied with a wry observation about the “choice” that Americans had for president last year. Ed was part of the Nader effort back in 2000 (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#nader) (as was I, and that was the last time that I voted for president) and learned his lesson regarding American electoral politics. Soon before he died, Brian O told me that American electoral politics was a dead-end, and he would have known (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#udall). In the latest Z Magazine, Ed’s article was on the new anti-Russian hysteria (https://zcomm.org/zmagazine/the-new-anti-russian-hysteria/) in the USA (that link will work in a couple of months), as the USA has been raising Joe McCarthy from the grave. Uncle Noam recently talked about (https://www.democracynow.org/2017/4/4/full_interview_noam_chomsky_on_democracy) what a “joke” the anti-Russian rhetoric is. It beggars the imagination that Brian Williams, a legend in his own mind (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brian_Williams#Controversy), is on TV at all these days, but there he was, gushing about the USA’s bombing of Syria, with its “beautiful (https://libertyblitzkrieg.com/2017/04/07/prepare-for-impact-this-is-the-beginning-of-the-end-for-u-s-empire/)” missiles. Ed wrote about the “Cruise Missile Left (http://ahealedplanet.net/links.htm#herman)” before we invaded Iraq, and cruise missile lovers are alive and well today.
Ed has been deconstructing the USA’s imperial ideology since the 1970s (http://ahealedplanet.net/critics.htm#crv), and he has particularly exposed the ludicrous conceit of the USA’s “humanitarian (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#record)” interventions. Ed does so to this day. Imperialists don’t like having their lies exposed, so the Wikipedia article on him (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_S._Herman) is a hack piece. My pal Ralph McGehee (http://ahealedplanet.net/mcgehee.htm), on the other hand, has a nice bio at Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ralph_McGehee) (somebody did a great job on it recently), probably because Ralph was silenced by the CIA and friends. Similarly, I can live with Brian O’s Wikipedia biography (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brian_O%27Leary) as it stands today, and the “editors” finally went away, who kept trying to make the Moon landings issue (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianbio.htm#statement) prominent. If the “rebels” are dead or silenced, then their treatment at Wikipedia can be almost fair, but if they are still active, even at 92 years old, the hacks can have a heyday.
This subject matter is very appropriate for my lessons learned thread (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis). With a comprehensive perspective (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#developing) and a devotion to discovering the truth, it is not that hard to escape today’s propaganda barrage, which makes Orwell’s vision (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#orwell) look like amateurs doing it.

Hi:
I have a little time this morning, and I want to provide a little color on Gary’s tale, and this will be on the Mickey Cohen (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mickey_Cohen) and Menachem Begin (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Menachem_Begin) connection. Both were gangsters, but if you are a gangster with good connections, you can win Nobel Peace Prizes, as Begin did in 1978 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Nobel_Peace_Prize_laureates), to be followed the next year by saint-in-waiting Mother Teresa (http://ahealedplanet.net/racket.htm#teresa). Scoundrels such as Henry Kissinger and mass murderer Barack Obama also won Peace Prizes. Gore Vidal once called the Nobel committee a bunch of ironists. So is the Vatican (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#serra). If the Peace Prize was awarded in England, Begin would not have been able to attend the ceremony, as he was wanted for murder there, for blowing up a hotel (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/King_David_Hotel_bombing) and killing nearly a hundred people.
Cohen was a boxer while young (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mickey_Cohen#Boxing_career), which is why when Gary tailed Cohen (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#cohen), he often ended up at the local boxing arena. During one boxing arena event, Gary saw Cohen meet with a man who is a federal court judge today (http://educationforum.ipbhost.com/index.php?/topic/20494-bill-decker-and-john-tower/&do=findComment&comment=319908) – another gangster who reached a high seat.
Cohen is also considered a founder of the race wire (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mickey_Cohen#From_syndicate_bodyguard_to_Sunset_Strip_kingpin). Gary also encountered Cohen at the race track regularly, and Cohen rewarded Gary once for his courtesy, while showing off and demonstrating how rigged the races were (https://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=451136&viewfull=1#post451136).
In cliché style, Cohen also hung out at a Yiddish diner, and that was when Gary observed Cohen meeting with Begin (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#israel), as they discussed JFK’s foreign policy and the like. Cohen and Begin went way back, as Cohen helped fund Begin’s terrorist group, Irgun (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irgun), in the 1940s. That is not even controversial, as it is well documented (1 (https://www.ampalestine.org/palestine-101/history/zionism/zionism-us-haganah-s-arms-procurement), 2 (http://www.sdjewishworld.com/2015/09/01/jewish-mobsters-fought-bund-helped-israel/)). Jack Ruby, whom Gary also met (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#ruby), was a Jewish mobster, so the Jewish mob was certainly involved in the JFK hit, but I doubt that they were the masterminds that Gary thought they were. However, the involvement in the cover-up by people such as “Magic Bullet (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page8?p=767&viewfull=1#post767)” Arlen Specter (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arlen_Specter) (whom Gary thought interposed Hunt’s grand plan (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#hunt)) is more evidence of their involvement, but Allen Dulles (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#dulles) ran the cover-up.
This is just to put a little more meat on the bones of Gary’s incredible tale (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#wean).

Hi:
As I have written plenty, my comprehensive (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#developing) and Epochal (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochaltable) frameworks came relatively late in my journey. I only began to understand what comprehensive thinking meant after I was introduced to Bucky Fuller’s work in 2003 (http://ahealedplanet.net/roots.htm#fuller), and my Epochal framework did not form until I read a book published by an oil company (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#paradigm) in 2010. I was already groping toward those perspectives when I encountered those works, but they helped crystallize my thinking into something more paradigmatic. Once I did that, so much became clear that was previously a bit cloudy. I took their work further, such as adding the Second (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal2) and Fifth (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5) Epochs to those Epochal frameworks, and my first one (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal1) is another invention, to a degree.
What became increasingly clear is that the Epochs defined what kinds of human societies existed in them. Each Epoch’s societies were very similar, even when arising quite independently. Hunter-gatherers lived in bands, with few material possessions other than what they could carry on their backs, and once the brief Golden Ages of the Hunter Gatherers (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#huntergatherer) ended as the easy meat was rendered extinct (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#australianmegafauna), people became fiercely territorial once again (this goes back to monkeys (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#rhesus1) and chimps (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#coalitionary) and further back), and it is the most violent phase of the human journey (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#deathrate). This happened with all societies of behaviorally modern humans (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#leap), in all places on the planet.
Where the easy meat was rendered extinct and plants conducive to cultivation (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#kebaran) existed, agriculture began, almost certainly invented by women, as an adjunct to their gathering duties. Those often became matrilocal cultures, and those were humanity’s most peaceful preindustrial cultures (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#patrilineal1). In four places on Earth (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#pristine1), those horticultural societies independently grew into civilizations, and once again, they all looked strikingly similar. A new professional priesthood wiped out the hunter-gatherer religion (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#dancing1), helped deify the elite (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#divinity), which was something new in the human journey, women’s status universally declined (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#womenstatus1) from that brief moment of Neolithic bliss, and they became broodmares of agrarian economies. Again, there are no notable exceptions (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#up3). I don’t want to say that people were necessarily trapped by their Epochs, but people were creatures of them, and virtually never raised their eyes above them (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#imagine). It is no different today.
The exemplary life of a Jesus (http://ahealedplanet.net/visions.htm#jesus), who I will agree was on a special mission (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#infinite), did not end slavery, but industrialization did (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#southseas). Just yesterday, I received a New Age (http://ahealedplanet.net/purpose.htm#newage) “channeling,” which stated that people are going to “wake up” and learn to share Earth’s resources “frugally,” and each awakened person will preach the new gospel of love to the masses, as we all wake up and somehow end scarcity by sharing. Those are the Utopian nostrums that Bucky said would never work (http://ahealedplanet.net/roots.htm#austerity). Shared austerity is not going to lead to abundance (http://ahealedplanet.net/abund.htm#abundance). Reshuffling the deck of scarcity (http://ahealedplanet.net/roots.htm#politics) is meaningless activity that primarily benefits those doing the shuffling.
That email that I received is a New Age cliché, and I am not a believer in some magical mass awakening coming out of nowhere. It has never happened before in the human journey, and what “awakenings” ever happened were dependent on the new Epoch’s increased energy surplus (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#discretionary). Again, there are no exceptions to this that I know of.
While my lessons on personal integrity (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page13?p=896&viewfull=1#post896) were my most important, what likely comes in second place is the comprehensive perspective that I gradually developed, and it is energy-centric. Indeed, only two things exist in our universe: energy and consciousness (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#energy1). They are joined at the hip, and energy is likely a manifestation of consciousness. I’ll agree that love is the energy of creation (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#greatest), and is what creators use to create. That is why I only advocate a loving approach to manifesting free energy and abundance, not the fear-based approaches (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#approaches) that have always been used until now.
I seek those needles in haystacks (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialcircle), who truly care (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=308&viewfull=1#post308), have risen above egocentric focus, and are willing and able to raise their eyes above our Super-Epoch of Scarcity. I have been at this too long to be fooled into thinking that people are going to spontaneously “wake up.” About 99.999% of them will only “wake up” when the new Epoch is upon them, not before. Talk and preaching (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#brink) are not going to do it. They never have and never will. That was one of the key lessons of my journey.
Best,

Hi:
I just finished reading Primates and Philosophers (https://www.amazon.com/Primates-Philosophers-Morality-Evolved-Princeton/dp/0691141290/ref=sr_1_7?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1492168427&sr=1-7), on the origins of human morality. This is about the sixth Frans de Waal book that I have read. This one was different, in that de Waal presented his argument, taken from lectures that he gave at Princeton, and then other authors presented their reactions and critiques. The gist of de Waal’s argument is that human morality is rooted in sociality (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialreason), primarily primate sociality, and chimps in particular, which he has spent a career studying. The responding authors ranged from animal activist Peter Singer to pointy-headed philosophers and academics. I’ll be using it in my essay update, but de Waal’s final comments were most germane to my work, which relate to the transformative effects of free energy. I have rarely seen it stated so clearly. Boehm’s Moral Origins (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page5?p=650&viewfull=1#post650) also stated it clearly (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page4?p=653&viewfull=1#post653), in that people are primarily egocentric (looking out for Number One), and when their own needs were taken care of, then they could see to the welfare of their families, primarily their dependent children, and when that was satisfied, then they could become “altruistic” and look out for the welfare of people outside of their kin groups. FYI, dark pathers (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#serving) have in-groups (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ingroup) of one.
Frans de Waal agreed with that framework of increasing economic abundance widening the circle that people care about, and he even presented a diagram that stated it as baldly as I have seen, which I have attached. At the top of the pyramid is the self, and below it in descending order are the family/clan, community, tribe/nation, humanity, and all life on Earth, and it all rides atop the available resources. Increase humanity’s available resources, and humanity’s circle of caring (AKA in-group) expands. It is really that simple. And when we get to industrial economies, when machines replace people in performing work (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#energyslave) (and beasts of burden), it is all energy-driven, just like all resource availability is an energy issue. Free energy is the key to abundance. Without abundant and clean energy, true abundance literally cannot happen (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#necessity).
Many human traits have roots in our evolutionary journey, and de Waal notes that male primates crave sex (to spread their genes), and females crave food, to properly gestate and feed their infants, and that those proclivities can still be seen in humans, leading to the “notorious” double standard of male and female marital fidelity, in which men can nearly be given a free pass for trying to mate with anything that moves.
Another theme in that book, which was echoed by most of its authors, is that much of what passes for human morality is not rational, but emotional/intuitive, which humans can rationalize after the fact, which goes back to the idea that people can justify anything, even eating their own children (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page5?p=650&viewfull=1#post650).
In summary, in times of scarcity, people look out for Number One above all, and in times of abundance (AKA Golden Ages (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#goldenages)), their circle of caring expands. It should be pretty obvious what free energy and abundance portends for humanity, and people who immediately argue that humans would just have bigger wars (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#peacekeeping) or strip-mine the planet (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#mining) are not being rational, but just reacting in knee-jerk fashion as they project their fears. All they can see is their world coming to an end, and their place in it, and they can’t or won’t see beyond that to what universal abundance (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#cognitive) can mean for humanity (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#visions). That is a standard response from people, as the vast majority react to the idea of free energy and abundance with denial (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level1) and fear (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level5), and the so-called smart provide sophisticated arguments (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level3) for why free energy is either impossible or undesirable. I obviously seek people who have raised their games above egocentrism (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=308&viewfull=1#post308), denial, and fear, but they are few and far between (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialcircle) on the planet today, even in history’s richest and most powerful nation (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#postwar).
That is really my work, in a nutshell. More lessons learned posts are coming, to wrap up this thread (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis) for now, but it is not often that I stumble into something that so clearly parallels what I am writing about.

Hi:
As I wrap up these lessons learned posts (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis), if I sit back and think about it, most of my lessons learned were about learning to see our world as it really is, not the propaganda version that we are taught (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm), or what we would like it to be. I have some clear ideas of what I would like it to be (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#immediate), but I learned what won’t work (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#approaches) in getting us there. For those extremely few who get past the initial ignorance (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level0), denial (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level1), and fear (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level5), what they primarily do is think that the social approach will work, think that retail politics (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#beseeching1) is the answer, or protest, or some mass movement (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level10), and they immediately go proselytize to their social circles (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialcircle). The best of them return to me with tales of ostracism, and are like immortal 18-year-olds (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm#business) who were sobered by their first taste of the battlefield, and they began to realize that my cautions were not theoretical. They then were ready to learn. Some did not have to do that, but I can literally count them on one hand and might have some fingers left over.
Those are all delusional approaches that are either ignorant of or deny my journey’s primary lesson (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page6?p=708&viewfull=1#post708). I resisted the lesson every step of the way, until I had it beaten into my head. It is not a fun lesson to learn, but it is the reality of the planet we live on, and denying that reality is suicidal for any attempts to manifest the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5). The level of personal integrity among the general population is abysmally low, not nearly high enough for any of those approaches to work, but almost invariably, free energy newcomers want to package the idea of free energy and how to get there into something for mass consumption. If that had the slightest prayer of happening, efforts led by Dennis and Brian (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#adventures) would have succeeded long ago. God bless Greer (http://ahealedplanet.net/journey.htm#greer) for trying, but he is no man of the people like Dennis and Brian were, and even if Jesus led such an effort, it still would not have a prayer. He would soon be crucified as his followers cheered (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=604&viewfull=1#post604). Those Bible stories are not all so fanciful. By the time it got to me that my own mother was campaigning against me (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=400492&viewfull=1#post400492), it did not even hurt anymore, as I had long since learned my lesson.
Over more than a quarter-century, I watched Dennis go from the people really care (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page3?p=618&viewfull=1#post618) to almost nobody cares (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#tailings) to his “allies (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#allies)” hurt him more than his enemies did. That Dennis doggedly kept pursuing the mass movement approach was incredible to witness, but after 1997 (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page9?p=805&viewfull=1#post805), I was permanently cured of the idea that such an approach had a prayer, and I did not want to watch anymore, knowing where Dennis’s efforts were heading. Carrying Brian’s spears (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page11?p=842&viewfull=1#post842) permanently cured me of the idea that any kind of mass movement approach had a prayer, and I don’t want to have anything to do with the free energy field today. But I constantly see free energy newcomers who deny or rail against those facts of life on Earth, as they sally forth to “do something,” and they invariably head straight toward catastrophe. I really don’t want to watch, or hear their coming tales of woe, if they ever get on the high road and actually try to make a dent (almost none ever get past the “talking big” stage).
It took me a lifetime to arrive at my current approach, and I plan to try it out, but I harbor no illusions that I am not seeking needles in haystacks. I know how the land lies, through awesome personal cost. I need people who also learned those elementary lessons or are willing to learn. That means jettisoning all of those in-group ideologies (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#dominant), and there is nothing easy about that. First, a person has to care (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=308&viewfull=1#post308), and then have an awakening experience (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=309&viewfull=1#post309). The only people that will be useful for what I have in mind have already reached that state. Then comes the hard work of developing a comprehensive perspective (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#developing). Scientific literacy is a requirement (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=313&viewfull=1#post313), and my jury is still out whether a person needs a mystical awakening (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=312&viewfull=1#post312), but those fellow travelers that I respected the most all had one, usually by the time they reached their early 20s. Brian was a relative latecomer, at nearly 40 years old before he got his (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#remote), performing the same exercise in which I got mine (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#brown).
With this post, I want to leave behind what is not going to work or is very unlikely to, and focus on what might.
Best,
Wade

Hi:
On to what might work and why. In brief, this approach is certain to succeed:
Train 5,000-to-7,000 heart-centered, comprehensive thinkers, who will comprise the “choir (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir)”;
Their “singing” will attract 100,000 people, most of whom will have been pining for the song their entire lives;
Together, they will mount a technology development effort, which will result in a free energy device ready for mass production and public use, which will be given to humanity.
Then the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5) begins. That is pretty simple. :)
If those five thousand people can be found and trained, the rest will be easy. If not by me, then by another. I may not be the best candidate to do this, but I am the only one who is trying that I know of.
While the above may seem simple, it is far from that, and while it might seem easy, finding and training that choir will be the hard part. In subsequent posts, I will cover how I came to the above approach (although my lessons learned thread (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page13?p=903&viewfull=1) should have already made it pretty clear). I have no doubt that the approach will work. The hard part will be finding the people for it, but I now have this tool with a global reach to hunt with, and the people I seek will find us.
Best,
Wade

Hi:
The next month is going to be a busy one at the office. I hope not 70-to-80-hour-weeks busy, like I had in March, but we’ll see. If I get some slack, I will finish these lessons learned posts and focus on the essay update, which at this rate will take the rest of the year, and I also took on a bio project, of somebody who is in my pantheon. As with Brian O’s bios (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#intro), I will work directly with the person. That will eat into my time, but it is an honor and privilege, and a fair bio needs to be done, as the Wikipedia bio is execrable. My pantheon pal (around the Uncle Noam (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#chomsky) level) does not have the stomach for the task, but I do. I have plenty of experience with the hack editors at Wikipedia (http://ahealedplanet.net/wikimass.htm). If nothing else, the bio will live on my site, as Brian’s original one does (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianbio.htm).
As far as my previous “simple (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page13?p=904&viewfull=1#post904)” post goes, it again hinges on the integrity issue (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page13?p=903&viewfull=1#post903). Heroic levels of integrity (http://ahealedplanet.net/conun.htm#heroes) will not work, as there are not enough people on the planet (http://ahealedplanet.net/lessons.htm#howmany) who possess that level for that approach to work. Ten Dennises or a hundred Brians, combining their efforts toward that positive outcome (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gcfocus), and we would have had free energy long ago, and the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5) would have already arrived. Low integrity approaches will not work, either, not for this task. It cannot be customers with no skin in the game (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#sfs), complaining “protestors (http://ahealedplanet.net/radleft.htm#coerce)” who are trying to coerce the elite, people pursuing business opportunities (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#greed), would-be Messiahs leading the flock (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#messiah), people looking for a way to fulfil their social needs, people rallying around egocentric ideologies (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#dominant), and the rest of those paths to failure (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#approaches). At their root, they are all based on fear and scarcity, and will not work for manifesting abundance (http://ahealedplanet.net/abund.htm#abundance).
I have been seeking that “sweet spot” of the integrity needed, with the tools available to me, and I think I have a way, but it won’t be easy and will likely take the rest of my life’s spare time to try out. I don’t seek that one-in-a-billion like Dennis is, and I won’t seek the man on the street, as I know what his motivation is, but as low as one-in-a-million (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialcircle) will work for what I have in mind. The next post will get into the details a little of those I seek.

Hi:
In summary, the reasons why my approach can work are these:
The technical project is not that difficult; thousands of efforts (http://ahealedplanet.net/hooked.htm#payoff) have accessed the zero-point field (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#zpf1);
Organized suppression (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#levels1) relies on the weaknesses of the efforts, and the formula is 1% organized suppression and 99% internal weakness of the efforts, to get them to collapse; the organized suppression is little more than a catalyst;
While producing a viable device for public use is far beyond the means of lone wolf inventors (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#demonstrate), it is easily within the reach of the effort that I have in mind; these technologies were developed to a commercial level (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#underground) before I was born;
With a nucleus of comprehensive thinkers (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#developing) with the right stuff (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=308&viewfull=1#post308), the effort is not going to collapse when a little organized suppression is applied;
In fact, with the strong nucleus and the “do something (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir)” people that it will attract, the organized suppression will likely not even rear its head, but will surrender;
The organized suppressors are dark pathers (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#serving) who hide in the shadows, and will likely slink away in the face of such an effort, seeking easier prey in other star systems, and some may even be redeemed;
The effort will be as decentralized as the Internet is, so no “air strike (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#raid)” can be called in on it;
The effort will actively avoid the many paths to failure (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#approaches) that have been trod before, none of which were high-integrity approaches;
Giving away the end result will avoid the most dangerous weaknesses that I have experienced and witnessed;
I am not asking for heroic levels of integrity (http://ahealedplanet.net/lessons.htm#howmany), and I have a new tool with a global reach to find the people needed, and they can find us;
With my approach, nobody is going to be risking their lives (http://ahealedplanet.net/lessons.htm#pursuing); right now, I am (but I am likely low on the radar (http://ahealedplanet.net/risk.htm#graphic)), but as the effort gains momentum, nobody will be at undue risk, especially if they refrain from proselytizing to their social circles (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialcircle);
While the general public is not going to awaken to the coming Epoch with talk (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#brink), they will readily awaken when the means of the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5) are delivered into their lives; it has been this way for all previous Epochs (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#imagine); only a relative handful are going to initiate the Fifth Epoch, as it was for all previous Epochs, and my effort is one way to amass that relative handful; nobody has tried this approach before, so who is to say that it won’t work? the only objection that I can think of is to argue that humanity’s personal integrity is even lower than I think it is (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page6?p=708&viewfull=1#post708).
There is more to write, but those are the basics of why my effort has a chance.
Best,
Wade

Hi:
Over the more than 40 years since I first got my energy dreams (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#glimpse), and over the more than 30 years since I became Dennis’s partner (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page3?p=614&viewfull=1#post614) in our free energy quest, I have had many thousands of interactions with people on the subjects that I write about. Those thousands of interactions have been very influential in my taking the approach that I have today (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir), and comprise some of my journey’s most important lessons. The bottom line is that almost nobody on Earth is willing to come to productive understandings of these issues, as it means jettisoning their baggage (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#dominant), which is primarily based on scarcity (http://ahealedplanet.net/hooked.htm#misinformation), fear (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level5), and survival. Only a loving perspective can hope to understand the issues, and with love, the tunnel vision of fearful self-interest can become the comprehensive vision (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#developing) of a master, and we can’t get there by dragging our baggage along with us. It is similar to Jesus’s eye of the needle parable (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eye_of_a_needle#Christianity).
People will eat their own children if they have to (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page13?p=896&viewfull=1#post896), with humanity’s “flexible” conscience. It is just what it is, and it does no good to judge it (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#judge1), but I regularly encounter people who consider it a judgment that they deny and rail against, and what I have found is that they are only defending their in-group (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ingroup), their species. Those with sufficient integrity will face up to this aspect of the human animal and not seek to deny it, argue around it, and the like. For the free energy pursuit, such naïveté and denial can be suicidal. The path of enlightenment is accepting this aspect of humanity for what it is. The It’s a Wonderful Life (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/It%27s_a_Wonderful_Life#Plot) endings only happen in the movies. That is not to say that there is not a divine spark in every human (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#love), and indeed in everything in our universe, but manifesting it here in physical reality? That is no easy trick. Only masters such as Jesus ever really achieved it to any significant degree (http://ahealedplanet.net/visions.htm#jesus), which is why people like him are such icons, even if the New Testament is a badly distorted fairy tale (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#tales) version of his life. Organized religions are virtually all self-serving distortions of the teachings of the masters, used for social control, lining the priesthood’s pockets (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#dancing1), and the like, but that does not deny the wisdom of the masters.
The masses are not going to awaken through talk. Epochal events (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochaltable) never happened through talk. They never have and never will. People will only begin to awaken through experience, which is the best and arguably only teacher. Deliver the means to the next Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5) into their lives, which will be the Big One, and they will begin to understand (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#brink), but not before then. In my interactions over the years, feigned interest in my work was common, before I began to learn the games they were playing, as they eventually attacked (http://ahealedplanet.net/critics.htm#troll) and made their irrational arguments (http://ahealedplanet.net/critics.htm#false). After five years of playing the Paul Revere of Free Energy (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#revere) and receiving almost nothing but crazed reactions of denial and fear (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#reactions), Brian O began openly wondering if humanity was a sentient species (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#sentience). It is a fair question. I call humanity semi-sentient; the potential is there, if only rarely achieved. Fear shuts down our rational thought processes (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#fearresponse).
Nobody is going to awaken by reading work like mine. It generally only drives them more deeply asleep. I have watched my “peers” blow gaskets only a few pages into my work, such as this section (http://ahealedplanet.net/intro.htm#progress). I seek the awakened and awakening (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=309&viewfull=1#post309), not the sleeping, and I know how rare such people are. Chatting up one’s social circle (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialcircle) regarding work like mine is a good way to get ostracized. Family relationships, friendships, and careers have ended that way. The sooner that anybody who wants to make a dent learns this, the better. This effort does not need a bunch of battle-scarred refugees from their social circles. I should know.
Best,
Wade

I find that other spiritual practitioners constantly project their own qualities onto other people in regards to assuming there will be a mass awakening. While there may be more waking up now than several decades ago, it's still a tiny trickle compared to most of the population. I think it seems greater than it really is because like-minded people can connect easier now on social media and forums.
I've also been seeing more articles recently like this one (https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2015/jul/10/denmark-wind-windfarm-power-exceed-electricity-demand) suggesting the situation with renewables may be getting better. While that is encouraging on one hand, I just don't see the USA adopting a full scale approach like that. People here are too addicted to the current automobile/suburban sprawl way of life. Any changes are going to be too late too soon, especially with oil depletion factoring into the current increasing risk of WWIII and Trump doing one of his typical impulsive flip flops back to neocon policy.
Many of my friends post regularly about renewables or other progressive changes they want to see implemented. I sympathize with their idealism and I know their hearts are mostly in the right place, but all that social media posting and protest marches and such basically only amounts to feel good virtue signalling that accomplishes nothing.
Makes me wonder if the white hats are the ones who will end up giving commercially ready zero point technology to the choir effort once it looks like the choice between abundance and annihilation can't be delayed any longer.

Hi Chris:
Oh, the notes you hit. Very astute. I could have penned a lengthy reply before my day began, but the electricity in my town was out for some hours this morning. Ah, the energy game. The local electric company is still messing with me (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=598&viewfull=1#post598)! :)
Yes, psychological projection is a human universal (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#up), as people measure each other in the light of their own motivation. The New Testament’s Jesus remarked on it, on how people with crime in their hearts see everybody else as criminals. Everybody, to one degree or another, is guilty of it, but the free energy pursuit has been great for helping me escape that state, if only fitfully. The masses and elites are wrapped up in their egocentric games, and neither has been any help for manifesting the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5), and neither is very likely to. Both have been greater hindrances than help. I regularly get free energy newbies who begin to grasp the magnitude of free energy, and they have a hard time believing that Godzilla (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc) would not want to let humanity have it (just like they think that their social circles (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialcircle) will immediately “wake up” when free energy and abundance is even mentioned). I then have to try to explain to them that Godzilla does not think like “normal” people do, as power and control (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#serving) are the lights that he steers by, and he would rather destroy the planet (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#mars) than give up his perceived “power.”
The masses cannot even distinguish the psychopaths from the saints, which I first saw when Dennis had his company stolen in Seattle (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=604&viewfull=1#post604), and over the next three years, I learned that lesson in no uncertain terms. But even saints (http://ahealedplanet.net/mcgehee.htm#heart) such as Ralph McGehee (http://ahealedplanet.net/mcgehee.htm) don’t yet understand. Ralph thought that if all Americans had access to the information and experiences that he did, that they would collectively call off the imperial dogs. No way. Nearly all Americans prefer to not know (http://www.counterpunch.org/2003/07/15/considering-the-obvious/) about the awesome imperial crimes (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#toll1) that keep the chips flowing the USA’s way. Orwell remarked on that (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#orwell) long ago.
Yes, the White Hats (http://ahealedplanet.net/camelot.htm#white) coming forward and giving their goodies (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#underground) to some group like the choir might happen, but we can’t count on that. Our effort has to be prepared to do it the hard way. But an abundance choir (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir) has never been heard on Earth before, and who knows what the harmonic effects might be?
On windmills and the like, they are too little, too late, and will far short of any kind of Epochal change. Brian O (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#udall) eventually realized it (http://ahealedplanet.net/camelot.htm#udall). Those are the small-ball “solutions” that are bandied about, and hard to get excited about any of them.

Hi Bluegreen:
I am not sure that I understand the distinction between actualized and realized, but I agree on the process of imagining it and then pursuing it, and doing it in steps. The greatest triumph of the Godzilla-influenced system is making free energy and what can come with it unimaginable. Most of my work over the past generation is just trying to make it imaginable (http://ahealedplanet.net/scarcity.htm). Building the choir (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir) is going to be the hard part. The rest will be relatively easy. Reaching the understandings necessary to sing the abundance song is not easy. There is so much scarcity-based baggage that people need to leave behind, so many delusions about how our world really works that people need to relinquish, before they are going to be able to understand and keep their eyes on the ball. It takes daily work and awareness to not be lulled by the song of scarcity (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/4-The-Song-of-Scarcity), so that they can sing the song of abundance (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/26-The-Song-of-Abundance). That is the hard part.

Hi:
To revisit Chris’s post (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1147284&viewfull=1#post1147284) and my reply (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1147495&viewfull=1#post1147495), one of the most important lessons of my journey was to learn to get out of my head and realize that people see the world very differently from how I do, and are motivated very differently. In dialogue, when my ideas come back at me through people’s filters, I can gain some understanding of how people see their world. That addiction-to-scarcity idea (http://ahealedplanet.net/hooked.htm#misinformation) took many years to become clear to me (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page11?p=841&viewfull=1#post841), after thousands of interactions and life-risking and life-wrecking adventures. Once I understood that framework, so many seemingly disparate reactions could be seen as arising from the same foundation, being mere variations of the same fundamental dynamic. Scarcity and fear (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#coming) is the background hum of our world (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/4-The-Song-of-Scarcity), and few can escape that siren song. Few even realize that they are humming along with it. When that song ends, our world will become unrecognizable (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#immediate) to people mired in our Super-Epoch of Scarcity. Abundance is a horse of a very different color (http://ahealedplanet.net/abund.htm#abundance), and brief periods of fleeting relative abundance (always primarily energy abundance) have marked the Golden Ages of the human journey (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#goldenages).
I want to briefly revisit my friend’s little show (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/49-Manifesting-Free-Energy?p=264&viewfull=1#post264). His eyes were bugging out of his head, and he remarked that those people putting on the demonstration did not play in the same galaxy as he did. While they encouraged him in his life-risking activities (you have to have already survived murder attempts on your journey to even be eligible for a show like that), they also said, “Don’t call us, we’ll call you.” I have purposely not known much about that show, as the people giving it risked their lives to put it on. Consequently, I don’t know much about where, when, and what (but have a pretty good idea of who), other than the show happened a generation ago, in an underground setting not far removed from what Greer described (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page7?p=730&viewfull=1#post730) (what he saw was in an underground facility in Alabama), and that free energy and antigravity (or electrogravity) were shown off, among the many other mind-boggling technologies demonstrated. Several people in my circles are privy to not only those technologies, but many technologies and exotic materials have also been routinely sequestered, which would almost immediately render most industries and professions on Earth obsolete. That scene at the end of Raiders of the Lost Ark (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#raiders) is not that fanciful. But Godzilla (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc) did not just put it all in a warehouse and forget about it; many of those technologies have been refined to commercial levels and beyond. But we don’t get any while we collectively sleep, are easily herded by the social managers, are our own worst enemies (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#attacks), etc.
Manifesting the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5) will require an unprecedented level of collective integrity (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page6?p=708&viewfull=1#post708) and sentience (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#sentience1), and I am confident that at least some people (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialcircle) are going to be fit for the task (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=308&viewfull=1#post308) and do the work. There will be nothing easy about it. I barely survived my journey with my sanity intact, and many fellow travelers didn’t. These realms are not for the faint of heart or those looking for easy answers.

Hi:
I am going to try to wrap up the lessons learned posts in this coming week. The learning never ends, but some lessons were much more important for what I am doing than others. I suppose that being in the autism spectrum helps ( :) ), but concentrating on what is important and refusing to be distracted by the circus is vitally important for what I do, and will be a key choir (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir) quality. Scientific literacy (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=313&viewfull=1#post313) is also very helpful for keeping one’s eye on the ball. Every day, some fringe/conspiracist (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#conspiracism)/New Age (http://ahealedplanet.net/purpose.htm#newage) flavor of the day makes the rounds, and to be charitable, very little of it is new or genuine, but comprises the mountain of chaff on the fringes. There is wheat to be found there, but the kernels are few and far between.
But the mainstream (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#big) is often even worse (http://ahealedplanet.net/orthodox.htm#orthodoxy). These days, I am bombarded by people around me with questions about Russia, Syria, Iran, and the like, and I just sent a relative these links (1 (https://consortiumnews.com/), 2 (http://www.globalresearch.ca/), 3 (https://zcomm.org/znet/), 4 (http://www.zerohedge.com/blogs/george-washington), 5 (http://www.oftwominds.com/blog.html), 6 (https://www.theautomaticearth.com/), 7 (http://www.strategic-culture.org/)), to help escape the mainstream media’s echo chamber, as imperial propaganda is reaching a deafening crescendo, like something out of Orwell’s worst nightmare (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#orwell). For the past generation, I have watched imperial hacks attack the work of Uncles Noam (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#chomsky) and Ed (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#manufacturing) (and Howard (http://ahealedplanet.net/zinn.htm), when he was alive), and use the most blatant logical fallacies (http://ahealedplanet.net/critics.htm#false) when they were not lying outright. The mainstream is often worse than worthless, but that does not confer quality to the fringes. In today’s world, pursuing the truth can be a perilous undertaking that can threaten one’s sanity if the pursuer is not properly grounded.
I first saw the media’s Big Lies about Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#deputy) a few weeks after meeting him (http://ahealedplanet.net/COP.htm#news), and they only got worse over the years. When I saw big names in the free energy field not only parrot the lies, but make up even bigger ones on their own (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#libel), and embrace psychopathic liars such as Mr. Skeptic (http://ahealedplanet.net/dennis.htm#friends) while they turned around and attacked Dennis and Brian (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm), I realized that the free energy field was hopelessly stunted, in arrested development (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#arrested), where gossip flourishes, where aspirants declare themselves to be the Second Coming (http://ahealedplanet.net/conun.htm#grandeur) and Messiah (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#messiah), and so on. I found some great ones on my journey (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#adventures), but it was only a few, and I am the last man standing among my immediate circle.
Those lessons all sprung from that most important lesson that I learned so long ago (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page6?p=708&viewfull=1#post708), and everything else pales next to that one. It is the converse of that greatest lesson of all, voiced by masters such as Jesus long ago (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#enemy). All of creation is one (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#nature), but in a world of scarcity and fear (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#coming), that understanding is trampled beneath an egocentric quest for survival and temporarily sating one’s addictions, and being addicted to scarcity (http://ahealedplanet.net/hooked.htm#misinformation) is typical. People will eat their own children (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page4?p=653&viewfull=1#post653) if they have to, and will effortlessly justify it.
But with each Epoch of the human journey (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochaltable), as humanity’s energy surplus (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#energysurplus) increased, societies became increasingly more humane. Practices considered normal in one Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#southseas) became seen as primitive barbarities in the next one (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#demographic). If free energy makes its appearance before industrial civilization collapses (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#collapse) (it is in the process of collapsing today (http://www.bbc.com/future/story/20170418-how-western-civilisation-could-collapse), and the USA’s disintegrating middle class (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#industrialdecline) is just one symptom of many), humanity is not going to become enlightened overnight. I favor measures for ensuring a harmless transition to the Fifth Epoch, such as those peacekeeping grandmothers (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#peacekeeping) and outlawing mining on Earth (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#mining), but even the stupidest of us will soon realize how idiotic such behaviors are, as senseless as playing Russian Roulette, and it won’t be long before nobody needs to be reminded anymore. Working for a living (and starving and sleeping on the streets if people don’t) will be seen in the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5) as being just as barbaric as Fourth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal4) humans view slavery. War will be incomprehensible in the Fifth Epoch, and people will wonder in amazement about our incredibly primitive past.
Only somebody who has developed a comprehensive perspective (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#developing) can see those dynamics and likely outcomes, and won’t react to the idea of free energy and abundance with denial (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level1) and fear (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level5), which are the standard responses. It takes big picture thinkers whose hearts are whole (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#greatest) to see it, to be willing to do the work to help make it happen (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir), and it took me many years to realize it. It took a lifetime of training, adventures, and study to arrive at my current approach, and I am sympathetic to those who have to spend years chewing on my work before it begins to make sense. It took about two years before I really understood what Uncle Noam was talking about, and I wanted to understand. My work is vastly more radical (http://ahealedplanet.net/radleft.htm#note) (it is epochal in scale and scope), and many people have been reading my work for twenty years and more, and I can still see it just beginning to sink in with many correspondents. It is a great way to help me develop patience (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#reading)! :)

Hi:
Many years ago, I realized that work like mine can only reach the reachable, and they are few and far between (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#worked). Those are just the numbers (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#judge1), and many times I have watched people introduce their social circles to my work (“my friends are hip”), to only have it end in disaster, with wrecked relationships, death threats, etc. I don’t recommend that people introduce their social circles to my work. For every time that might work, they can count on many strained or wrecked relationships, ostracism, and so on. My list of what the people I seek have in common (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=308&viewfull=1#post308) was developed over many years and witnessing thousands of reactions to my work, trading notes with people such as Brian, and other activities. If people just have to, they can maybe send their social circles a link (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm) and leave it at that. Those I seek will instantly see my work’s worth, dive in, and not come up for air for months or years. Those who need to be sold, cajoled, and the like are not the people I seek, and trying to sell them on my work has virtually never ended well, if it ever has. This is a key lesson that anybody involved with me has to learn early on. The fewer wrecked relationships, the better.
One of the most common reactions to my work, by those not reacting in denial (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level1), fear (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level5), attacks, and the like, is trying to package it for mass consumption, to water it down so that my message can “sneak” past people’s ego defense mechanisms. What I learned long ago was that trying to water it down would ensure that it would not attract the people I seek. I have made many nods to making introductions to my work (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanityppt.pdf) a little simpler, but they can only be introductions. There is no substitute for doing the work.
Making the biggest event in the human journey manifest is not a task for the masses (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level10). I learned that lesson most pointedly during my days with Dennis, but I still carried Brian’s spears (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#nem) before I was finally forever cured of that notion. The masses will be the biggest beneficiaries of the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5) (and our fellow species) but they are not going to help humanity get there. No Epochal Event (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochaltable) was ever initiated by mass action, and I highly doubt that it will this time. People are creatures of their Epochs, and are unable (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#imagine) or unwilling to look beyond them. The end of slavery was unimaginable (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#southseas) before industrialization. A world where nobody has to work for a living, or else, is similarly unimaginable today. Those kinds of reactions to my work, of denial, fear, attacks (http://ahealedplanet.net/critics.htm#troll), irrational criticisms (http://ahealedplanet.net/critics.htm#false), and the like, are entirely normal, and I long ago stopped taking it personally. But it is a waste of time and energy to engage people at those levels. We have to raise our games if we want to make a dent. There are no easy, lazy, egocentric (or in-group (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ingroup)) paths to the goal, not for this one. My big essay (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm) is only a prerequisite. The deep work has yet to even begin.
Best,
Wade

Hi:
One important lesson of my journey took many years to sink in, and when I began to understand it, it became obvious in many ways, including aspects that were subtle and formerly fairly invisible to me, and it had a great deal to do with developing my current approach (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir).
When I became Dennis’s partner (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page3?p=614&viewfull=1#post614), the truly epochal nature (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5) of what we pursued was beyond our imagination, and did not begin to become clear to me until nearly a quarter-century later, and I am still figuring it out. When I began to understand the magnitude of what we pursued, it slowly dawned on me that Godzilla (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc) and friends were way ahead of us. I got to witness organized suppression (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#levels1) in my Seattle days, so that was not a new idea in 2010, when I read the book (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#paradigm) that helped me establish my epochal framework. But in Seattle, the suppressors were the electric companies (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#scam), trying to protect their revenue base. Free energy was not even on the table back then. When New England’s electric companies held secret meetings about us (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page4?p=647&viewfull=1#post647), and began mobilizing their assets to wipe us out (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#middlesex), they were not thinking in epochal terms, either, but just protecting their racket.
However, when we got our first friendly buyout offer (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page3?p=623&viewfull=1#post623) around the same time, and when the so-called White Hats (http://ahealedplanet.net/camelot.htm#white) contacted us periodically, they all had a very good idea of what our efforts meant in the big picture, and adding a couple of zeroes the next year (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#offer), before we got the boom lowered on us (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#jail), was about keeping this super-epoch of scarcity and fear (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#coming) going, and warding off the threat of abundance and love.
One of the greatest delusions that free energy newcomers almost invariably arrive with is thinking that the magnitude of free energy is something that the people in charge are oblivious to, and that free energy efforts can sneak up on them (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level7). What a suicidal delusion. The GCs know very well what free energy means, which is why they have been so vigilant in keeping it at bay (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#make). Because the masses are oblivious does not mean that the people at the top are. In fact, a big reason why they are at the top is because they understand the “threat” very well, and keeping the public oblivious (http://ahealedplanet.net/scarcity.htm) is one of their most “important” tasks.
That delusion manifests in many ways, such as free energy inventors thinking that they came up with something novel in their shops and garages. Whatever they tinkered on was developed to a commercial level and beyond generations ago (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#proprietary). Those inventors think that they are blazing new trails, but they are in a rut that has been trod by thousands (http://ahealedplanet.net/hooked.htm#payoff), and the games they play, of patents (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#patent), proprietary technology, approaching venture capitalists (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#money), and the like, must make Godzilla yawn, as he sends his flunkies to deal with those “threats.”
Our effort was a horse of a different color, and they got a preview of it from Dennis’s ingenious marketing programs, such as putting the world’s best heating system (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#new) on people’s homes for free (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#sfs). Dennis was not going for the quick capitalist kill, and that was something that Godzilla rarely encountered in the milieu, and never before for somebody playing at Dennis’s level. In Godzilla’s textbook to train his minions, our efforts likely comprised a case study that takes up a chapter or two, and is one reason why he has not forgotten about me.
I have been doing my work for free for many years, do not even seek money, and don’t need any money to build the choir (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir). But kind of like in The Lord of the Rings, in which Sauron could not even fathom why Gandalf and friends would seek to destroy the ring rather than use it, an effort not built on self-seeking, which plans to give way history’s most lucrative technology (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#numbers), is similarly outside of the motivational paradigm that Godzilla is used to dealing with. He is used to free energy inventors and their allies being overcome by greed (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#greed), announcing themselves to be the Second Coming (http://ahealedplanet.net/conun.htm#grandeur) and Messiah (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#messiah), etc., and when they do that, they are already defeated. When aspirants do that, Godzilla must chuckle and rarely needs to lift a claw, as such efforts invariably head for failure without any organized suppression needing to be applied. He just gets his popcorn and watches the show, but even he likely tires of the same spectacles of ego, greed, naïveté, and the like.
I am doing something new and unusual, but he also likely thinks that my cause is hopeless, as I will never find enough people with the right stuff (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=308&viewfull=1#post308), so that we can make a dent. Maybe he is right, but I have no illusions that my effort is going to sneak up on him. I am likely pretty low on the radar (http://ahealedplanet.net/risk.htm#graphic), but my approach is novel enough so that he keeps half an eye open.
That is one reason why I am doing this very slowly and carefully, and I always dismiss the “bright ideas” of free energy newcomers (which are all variations of the same theme (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#approaches)), who advocate the social route (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialcircle), who look for quick and easy answers, who want to bully me into doing it their way, and so on.
Those lessons were a long time in coming, and when they dawned on me, I slowly realized how far ahead of us Godzilla and friends were, but they also cannot fathom what an effort based on love might accomplish, in which getting rich and famous is not the overriding goal. The raising awareness part he understands, so the “threat” that my work represents is real, but I am not playing the conspiracist game (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#conspiracism), vending New Age pabulum (http://ahealedplanet.net/purpose.htm#newage), trying the social route, and so on, so am doing something strange in his eyes, as well as in the eyes of almost everybody who encounters my work, and that suits me just fine. Making my work palatable to the masses is not a goal of mine. They are not going to wake up by encountering my work (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#brink).
My effort might be the critical missing piece of the puzzle, it might only be a quaint curiosity, but it won’t hurt anybody, which is perhaps my most important goal. I don’t want to help produce any more free energy martyrs. I had enough of that (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#adventures).
Best,
Wade

Hi:
This will be my last lessons learned post (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page3?p=623&viewfull=1) for now. My most important lessons (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page6?p=708&viewfull=1#post708) were primarily learned during my days with Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=601&viewfull=1#post601), without which I would likely not have much worth saying. I see my life’s journey split into “Before Dennis” and “After Dennis.” A greater human on the planet today I do not know of (http://ahealedplanet.net/lessons.htm#howmany). My studies since my first stint with Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page7?p=739&viewfull=1#post739) either would not have happened or have been of dubious worth, as they would have been viewed through the lens of inexperience and naïveté. There is no substitute for being there. But, can the people I seek learn vicariously enough so that they don’t have to try to survive what I did, so that they can learn to hit the notes (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir)? I think so, but they already have to have awakened somehow (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=309&viewfull=1#post309). They do not need to be the life-risking awakenings that Ralph (http://ahealedplanet.net/mcgehee.htm#saigon) and Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#voice) had, or the life-wrecking way that I awoke (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#mr), culminating in my radicalizing moment on the witness stand (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page5?p=681&viewfull=1#post681). It just needs to be an awakening that helps people escape their in-group (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ingroup) conditioning, whatever it may be.
I have identified the dominant in-group ideologies in the USA (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#dominant). Other peoples have theirs. Until people can escape their conditioning, they won’t really know what love is (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#greatest), as exemplified by that “love the enemy (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#enemy)” understanding of Jesus (http://ahealedplanet.net/visions.htm#jesus). I doubt that anything other than a loving approach can manifest the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5). We have to approach this issue as creators, not victims (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#weakness), if we want to have a prayer for success.
Organized suppression (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#levels1) is just what people do who live in scarcity and fear (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#coming), even the richest and most “powerful” of us, and Godzilla (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc) is the most sophisticated practitioner of the craft on Earth (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#bearden), but he is also a divine child of the Creator (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#love), as are we all. Making him into the reason for why we do not live in the Fifth Epoch is a delusional creation of another out-group (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ingroup1). His antics are only catalysts (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page13?p=906&viewfull=1#post906), not ultimate causes (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#ultimate), similar to those gray beings that Roads encountered (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?32399-A-Future-Earth&p=672115&viewfull=1#post672115). Godzilla is one of us (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#nature). Obviously, that heavenly world that Roads visited (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?32399-A-Future-Earth&p=672748&viewfull=1#post672748) is one of the stars that I steer by. To return to that graphic of de Waal’s (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page13?p=902&viewfull=1#post902), make all resources abundant (http://ahealedplanet.net/abund.htm#abundance), as Bucky noted (http://ahealedplanet.net/roots.htm#politics), and humanity will eventually see all life on Earth, indeed, all of Creation, as its in-group. That is my game.
For what is ultimately about manifesting the most liberating technologies in the human journey (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ideal), as humanity will then become a Type 1 civilization (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#kardashev), I found that something like scientific literacy is necessary (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=313&viewfull=1#post313). Otherwise, people tend to get distracted by the circus, fail to see the forest for the trees, and get lost in the weeds. A comprehensive view (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#developing) is necessary. Scientific literacy will be to the Fifth Epoch what literacy is to the Fourth (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal4): something that all children learn.
My jury is still out on whether a mystical awakening is necessary (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=312&viewfull=1#post312), but it might be. But where a person’s heart is is all-important. Without that, the rest does not matter (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=308&viewfull=1#post308). Materialists (http://ahealedplanet.net/conun.htm#subtle) with their hearts in the right place may have what it takes. Dennis and Brian immediately understood the novelty of my approach (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=918852&viewfull=1#post918852), and we will see how it goes. This approach has been a lifetime in coming, and I seek those who can work with me on this little task (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir). :)
Best,

Hi:
I have been putting lots of other commentary on hold while I finished my lessons learned posts (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page14?p=913&viewfull=1#post913). Earlier in the year, I wrote of some 30th anniversaries happening, such as becoming Dennis’s partner (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page3?p=614&viewfull=1#post614). I believe it was 30 years ago this month that we received that first friendly buyout offer (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page3?p=623&viewfull=1#post623), which was also when we began hearing from the White Hats (http://ahealedplanet.net/camelot.htm#white). Also, 50th anniversaries are arriving. In April 1967, my father was planning his move back to California, in the wake of the Apollo 1 disaster (http://ahealedplanet.net/paths.htm#apollo1). We left the next month, and only a couple of weeks before Brian’s amazing astronaut interview (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#mars), when he was asked/ordered to go to Mars (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianbio.htm#mars). How time flies.
My parents’ generation has been dying off for the past several years, with about one death per year, and the aunt that I was closest to recently died. I am attaching a picture taken in the summer of 1988, when I was living in her basement between hikes, as my life was falling apart. She was a better mother than my own mother was to me (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=400492&viewfull=1#post400492) in those days. It is not like I had no support in those years, and those supporters, while few and far between, became like gold nuggets to me. How I will miss her. Her late husband introduced me to hiking (http://ahealedplanet.net/pics.htm), and her passing is the end of an era in my life. I am doing to my nephew what my uncle did to me: addicting him to the Cascade Range (http://ahealedplanet.net/pics.htm#white2). He is going to be going to college in Washington, and will drag Uncle Wade out until he can’t do it anymore, which I hope is at least 30 years away. We’ll see.
Best,
Wade

...loving the 'living' now moment, Wade : )
Thanks for sharing...
I too have had the 'gift' of loving elder relatives unexpectedly connecting to me and passing on subtle 'and not so subtle' wisdom and unconditional love thru the many years!
We are at the personal physical age of deeper consideration of our 'time-span' in this human-suit we wear on Mother Earth...
Giving IS Receiving...a BIG Loving Lesson for me!

Hi Eaglespirit:
Yes, I have had many blessings from my elders, and was also handed many challenges. Some did terrible things to people I loved, but I loved them still and did what I could to heal it. Some just showered the love, and what a blessing. Life is short on planet Earth, and time to do work! :)
I hope all is well,

Hi:
It will be long hours at the day job for the next week or so, but I’ll sneak in a post or two. I am finishing up Frans de Waal’s Our Inner Ape (https://www.amazon.com/Our-Inner-Ape-Primatologist-Explains/dp/1594481962/ref=sr_1_5?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1493297124&sr=1-5), and there is plenty of good stuff in it, on chimps and bonobos in particular. He has written so many books that they can become repetitive, and I am about done with my de Waal phase for now. One nugget from the book is how very little primate behavior is “hardwired,” and he gave an example of an experiment that he performed with rhesus macaques (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rhesus_macaque) and stump-tailed macaques (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stump-tailed_macaque). Rhesus macaques are highly hierarchical and harsh (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#rhesus1) in their politics, while stump-tails are more easy-going. The stump-tails are larger, and dominate rhesus macaques if put together, and de Wall did just that with juveniles of both species. The rhesus macaques initially fled to a corner and threatened the stump-tails, who ignored their threats. After five months, however, the rhesus macaques were acting largely like the easy-going stump-tails and sleeping with them in piles. After the experiment concluded and the rhesus macaques were again isolated, they kept acting nicely. The stump-tails had “trained” them in more positive social behaviors, and de Waal’s team called them their “New and improved” rhesus macaques.
Virtually all differences in human societies today are because of nurture, not nature. Human nature has not appreciably changed for at least 50,000 years (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#leap), and perhaps for far longer. With each Epoch of the human journey, as humanity’s surplus energy increased (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#discretionary), societies became increasingly more humane. Killing strangers on sight (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#deathrate) in the Second Epoch gave way to “only” slavery (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#slaverybeginning) in the Third Epoch to “only” wage slavery in the Fourth Epoch. In the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5), working for a living, or “enjoying” short lives of homelessness and starvation, will go the way of slavery and other barbarities.
The people in Roads’s nightmarish (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?32399-A-Future-Earth&p=672115&viewfull=1#post672115) and heavenly (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?32399-A-Future-Earth&p=672748&viewfull=1#post672748) worlds had nearly the same biological equipment. Human “nature” had almost nothing to do with the differences between those two worlds. While one was full of psychopaths, none existed in the other one. It all derived from human choice and the available economic surplus, which always derives from the energy surplus. The nightmare world was steeply hierarchical, literally, while the other would have had no hierarchy at all, especially economically, politically, or socially, and all lived in abundance and had a harmony with nature that most people today find hard to believe. But for those of us who choose love, that reality, or one very like it, is not far off, and how many people on Earth today do you think would choose that nightmare reality to live in, seeking to become the Rockefellers (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#rockefeller1) of their reality?

Hi:
Here are some odds and ends before a long day in the office. The USA’s evil war machine (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm) hardly skipped a beat with a new president. About the only positive aspect of Trump’s campaign was countering the neo-McCarthyite ravings of Hillary, but that ended almost immediately after the inauguration, and the USA is back to shaking the global sabre as it waltzes toward World War III (http://theantimedia.org/nato-world-war-iii-shanghai-cooperation/), bombings, trying to overthrow governments, and their “intelligence” is a pack of lies (1 (http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-04-21/afghan-ex-president-karzai-isis-tool-united-states), 2 (http://www.shtfplan.com/headline-news/they-have-no-proof-mit-professor-explains-why-the-assad-gas-attack-was-a-sham_04182017), 3 (http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-04-11/intelligence-and-military-sources-who-warned-about-wmd-lies-iraq-war-now-say-assad-d), 4 (https://consortiumnews.com/2017/04/07/trumps-wag-the-dog-moment/)), in wag the dog fashion (https://consortiumnews.com/2017/04/07/trumps-wag-the-dog-moment/), as usual. This is how empires end (https://libertyblitzkrieg.com/2017/04/07/prepare-for-impact-this-is-the-beginning-of-the-end-for-u-s-empire/).
There is debate today regarding Trump’s release of some more JFK files (http://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2017/04/27/will-trump-release-the-missing-jfk-files-215079), but the incriminating documents were never in the documentary cache to begin with (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page8?p=761&viewfull=1#post761).
Something kind of crazy is happening with my forum (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/), as there are 428 readers in it as I write this. That is far higher than Avalon ever was, as I have yet to see 100 readers at the same time on my Avalon thread (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=400492&viewfull=1). Some group has found it, and I hope it is not some Godzilla-ish group, or some government agency studying how to eliminate the “threat” that I present. We’ll see.
A recent DNA study (https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2017/mar/09/aboriginal-dna-study-reveals-50000-year-story-of-sacred-ties-to-land) is confirming the orthodox understanding of how Australia was “settled,” and how there was very little migration of the populations after the original settlement. Of course, the Australian migration exactly coincides with the swift extinction of its megafauna (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#australianmegafauna), in the first event of many like it (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#westernmegafauna). The Australian situation for tens of thousands of years was hundreds of mutually hostile, patrilineal societies, which hunted kangaroos. To return to Otterbein’s hypothesis (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page7?p=873&viewfull=1#post873), because the fleet-footed kangaroo could not be hunted to extinction, big game hunting dominated, and therefore, agriculture was never adopted by aboriginal Australians. Only where large animals had been hunted to extinction, and the plants conducive to it (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#kebaran), could agriculture be invented.
I really can’t wait to update my big essay. Lots of good stuff to add. A recent paper (https://www.newscientist.com/article/dn26055-earths-early-life-endured-long-asteroid-bombardment/) argues that the asteroid bombardment lasted far longer than previously supposed. My early life on Earth chapter (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#life) will get one of the biggest makeovers. Again, nothing that I will add or revise will change the essay’s thrust, but will flesh out quite a few areas that I covered a little lightly. I have been reading a lot of fascinating material in the past couple of years.

Hi:
I am no site technician, with a rolled-my-own site, with a little help from my friends, but I snooped a little into why there is so much traffic at my forum these days (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page8?p=916&viewfull=1#post916), and I see that Israel has jumped up to number two, and Israel, Russia, and China now produce more traffic to my site than the USA does. Americans have not been my target audience for more than a decade, so this is not a great surprise, but I am going to have to upgrade my host with this kind of traffic now. This “success” is really going to cost me! :)

Hi:
I finished de Waal’s Our Inner Ape (https://www.amazon.com/Our-Inner-Ape-Primatologist-Explains/dp/1594481962/ref=sr_1_5?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1493297124&sr=1-5), and have a few observations to make, which are germane to my work. The primary thrust of his book was how humans are a cross between chimps and bonobos. Chimps can literally be bloodthirsty, as they drink the blood of the neighboring chimps that they murder (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#coalitionary). Bonobos, on the other hand, have never been observed to kill each other, and life is one big orgy for them, as they settle everything with sex, and in the most casual ways. They engage in sexual activity on par with how humans say “good morning,” “thank you,” and other innocuous social interactions.
The prominent speculation about how they became so different was that when some chimps became isolated by the Congo River’s formation about two million years ago, and there were no gorillas in their range (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#bonobo1), they could then eat gorilla forage, mainly leaves, and could thus have large and stable foraging parties, unlike chimps, who walk miles each day between fruit trees, and whose parties fluctuate continually between two and nine, whereas bonobo parties are nearly twenty and stable.
This had several impacts. One of which is that chimps usually forage alone, but generally within earshot of their party, and chimps murder each other by finding lone foraging males in their raids into neighboring territory, and then gang up and murder them. And just like how women have been human war booty since time immemorial, the conquering chimps would kill off all the males and acquire the females and the territory of the former chimp band. And in a typical primate practice, the chimps would then murder all of the infants of the conquered band (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#infanticide1). The selfish gene hypothesis has been proposed to explain it, and something similar is surely why. If a chimp can avoid it, he would rather not raise somebody else’s offspring. Echoes of this behavior are also seen in humans.
When what became bonobos suddenly had a new economic situation, they made many adaptations to it. While females still left their natal groups to mate, the primary social glue among bonobos is female-on-female sex, which established a sisterhood of dominant females. Wild female chimps have almost no social bonds, and they virtually disappear for years when they have an offspring, partly so that no male chimp will murder it. But bonobos, with their dominant sisterhood, eliminated infanticide, and any bonobo that gives the faintest hint of threatening an infant will have the entire society come down hard on him, no matter what his mother’s rank might be.
While chimps make war, bonobos make love, and de Waal took pains to inform his readers that bonobos were not some saints, but made the best of their situation, and engineered societies in which violence nearly did not exist (only those who violated the generous social code received it), and they live in peace and plenty. Mr. de Waal has spent a career observing chimps, and noted that captive chimp populations quickly began traveling the bonobo path, as females began forming social bonds, which wild chimps don’t do.
As he began studying a captive chimp colony in his home nation of the Netherlands, the behaviors he saw were so sophisticated that he began reading Machiavelli, to help him understand what he was seeing. In the end, de Waal says that for all of humanity’s prowess with toolmaking and feats of rationality, chimp social intelligence is equivalent to human social intelligence. Mr. de Waal has also studied capuchins, macaques, and other primates, and they also have high social intelligence, but chimps and bonobos have the most sophisticated social intelligence that he has seen, and a primary hypothesis of his is that morality grew out of sociality, which is standard among evolutionary anthropologists.
Being a scientist (http://ahealedplanet.net/roots.htm#naive), however, de Waal showed himself to be naïve at times, and when I began reading his The Age of Empathy, I was surprised at his naïveté that humans would react to the financial crisis of 2008 by leveling the economic playing field. The opposite has happened (http://ahealedplanet.net/savings.htm#everything).
The great social changes were a result of great economic changes, not the other way around. We can’t use sociality to make big economic changes. It has never worked that way and never will. Some bout of conscience out of nowhere did not end slavery: the rising standards of living of industrialization did (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#demographic), just like they liberated women. Bonobos would have never started down their path if they didn’t have their food supply double when gorillas left the area and never returned.
This is why the social circle approach (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialcircle) is completely useless for epochal change, and the arrival of free energy (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ideal) will be the most epochal of the epochal events (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochaltable). Again, I learned this the hard way, being a key member of five different mass movement approaches (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level10) before I was finally cured of the idea that the social approach was going to work. It won’t work for epochal change. Sociality is pre-sentient behavior, and all that it is good for is the survival of the social group, AKA the in-group (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ingroup), and all out-groups have been fair game (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ingroup1) for as long as there have been social animals. When people are focused on a common goal (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gcfocus), social maneuvering takes a back seat. That is my approach (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir), and I know that I seek needles in haystacks (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=308&viewfull=1#post308).
For the naiveté that de Wall displayed at times, more often, he was a fount of wisdom. What behavioral scientists like him readily admit is that humans are far less rational than we like to believe, making emotional decisions and then rationalizing them later. Humans can rationalize anything, even eating their children (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page13?p=896&viewfull=1#post896).
After five years of playing the Paul Revere of Free Energy (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#revere), and all that he received from his colleagues, who hailed from the tops of the world’s governmental, academic, scientific, and “progressive” institutions, was denial and fear (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#reactions), Brian O began openly wondering if humanity was a sentient species (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#sentience), and I sadly understood.
All out-groups being fair game directly relates to my journey’s primary lesson, that personal integrity is the world’s scarcest commodity (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page6?p=708&viewfull=1#post708). People simply don’t care about anybody outside of their perceived in-group. Somewhere around 1% of Americans know or care about the millions of children that our great nation has murdered (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#invading) in the past generation. The greatest force of evil on the planet today is the American military (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm#third), and most Americans worship it. Indeed, I saw a poll just the other day (https://morningconsult.com/2017/04/26/trumps-border-wall-lowest-priority-funding-talks-voters-say/), and funding the military is the American voter’s highest priority. We are now playing with igniting World War III, and one astute American critic finished his article on the USA’s preparations for an offensive nuclear war (http://www.paulcraigroberts.org/2017/04/27/washington-plans-nuke-russia-china/) with, “And so apparently do the American people, a population stupid beyond all belief.” I understand the sentiment, which is why Americans have not been my target audience for more than a decade.

Hi:
Anybody familiar with my public writings knows what an avid hiker I am (http://ahealedplanet.net/pics.htm). I measure my years by the quality hikes that I got in (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1105969&viewfull=1#post1105969). I got home last night to the devastating news that a long-time hiking pal had died. I will likely not hike with anybody in this lifetime more than I hiked with him. We easily took more than 100 trips together, including ten backpacks or so. He was only 51. I am reeling. I’ll make a shrine to his memory one day, but for now, attached are a few pics from when we were younger.

Aw, man. I am so sorry for your physical disconnection from one of your brothers. Fifty-freakin-one, that is just too short an incarnation. His spirit is freed energy now.
I'll bet you a columbine that you connect up with his spirit when you're hiking. But for now, grieve the loss your own way and your own time.
Sending love, bro.

Hi:
Here is a short post on the contrasts of my vision (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#immediate) and the usual vision that I have been seeing and hearing for a generation or more. One is positive, and one is negative. The vision that I have seen for many years is that one day, everybody is going to wake up to the failures of our systems and will jointly build something new. Mine is that something new will come onto the scene, which will be immediately used, and the old ways will simply become obsolete. Epochal change has never happened because the masses one day realized how the current methods are unworkable, unsustainable, and even evil. What instead happened was that a literal or relative handful of people invented the means of the next Epoch, the obvious advantages had everybody climb aboard, and the old methods became obsolete. Nobody would use the old ways unless they had to, and with a superior alternative, why use the old way?
When the campfire was invented (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#fire1), or stone tools (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#stonetool1), the previous methods became obsolete, and nobody wanted to go back. When plants were domesticated (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#kebaran), it was a one-way ticket to civilization (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#pristine1). Nobody voluntarily gave up domesticated plants and animals once they had them, and the hunter-gatherer lifestyle simply disappeared wherever crops and herds could be raised. Similarly, industrialization ended slavery and the subjugation of women (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#demographic), not some bout of conscience over the evils of slavery or how women had been reduced to mere broodmares of agrarian economies. Many civilizations have collapsed (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#collapse) as they doggedly pursued their unsustainable methods until the bitter end. Humanity is doing the same thing today (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#spaceshipearth).
Similarly, capitalism is not going to be given up one day via some mass awakening, or warfare (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#warreason1), or the many evils of our current system. Once the means of the new Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ideal) are delivered, the advantages will be so obvious that nobody will fail to avail themselves of them, and unlike the scarce pool of fossil fuels (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#peakoil) that made the Industrial Revolution possible (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#coaluse), that abundant and clean energy will be available to all humans. And then, and only then, will the masses begin to realize that the current system, in which greed is elevated to a virtue (http://ahealedplanet.net/intro.htm#greed), in which national pride (http://ahealedplanet.net/intro.htm#pride) becomes a reason to beat one’s chest, and so on, simply does not make sense anymore.
People are not going to awaken because the current system is doomed to failure, but because they will begin to use a superior system, and the old system will be discarded, like children giving up dolls and toys as they grow up. I am trying to amass that relative handful (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir) that will make the difference, and am not trying to awaken the masses with talk and writing (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#brink). That has never worked and never will.

Hi:
I cannot overemphasize the importance of a comprehensive perspective (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#developing) for what I am doing, and it takes work, a lot of work, to get there. But, for me, it was fun work, and I think it would be for anybody who wants to understand how the world works. From how the Sun works (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#formation) to how stars form to how Earth works (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#dynamics) to how life began (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#luca) to how complex life began (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#mitochondria) to how humans appeared on the evolutionary scene (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#path), it is always primarily an energy story (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#energyevents). But developing a comprehensive perspective is not just about collecting facts and theories in a pile, but eventually understanding the similarities, the differences, and why things act like they do. You can develop your own tools of assessment and develop a much better understanding of the process of science (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=313&viewfull=1#post313), of scholarship (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#objectivity), and learn about what to take seriously and what to relegate to the gossip-bin or the “conflict of interest” bin or the highly speculative bin, and so on.
I constantly see people without comprehensive perspectives advocate this and that path to change, and they are often stuck in social consciousness, thinking that some new social organization is the key to a healed planet, without understanding why the current social organization exists. You can’t do it that way. It is like thinking that agrarian peoples could have built a hay-powered rocket to the Moon. Human social organization has always been dependent on its economic foundation, and its energy surplus (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#energysurplus) in particular. There are no exceptions in the human journey. The end of slavery was unthinkable (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#southseas) before the rising standards of living of industrialization and machines replacing people made the end of slavery feasible, and brute human labor became obsolete. For every Jesus that rises above his Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#enemy), with a message from the godhead (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#infinite), millions and billions are mired in their spheres of self-interest, unwilling and unable to see the bigger picture.
I continually encounter people who deny those realities as they propose some “novel” social approach to these issues, thinking that reshuffling the deck of scarcity will lead to abundance, thinking that retail politics is of any use at all, etc. As Bucky said (http://ahealedplanet.net/roots.htm#politics), good luck with that. While scarcity and fear predominate (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#coming), almost nobody on Earth is able or willing to raise their eyes above their daily survival. And for those who “make it,” they are creatures of the system that garnered them their wealth and are not about to rock the boat. They don’t even want to, and they play games of fake philanthropy (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#philanthropy1) and the like, and their relationship to free energy is like a vulture’s, as they plan to swoop in for the kill if an effort ever gets far along, so they can become the Bill Gates of Free Energy (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#oleary), but even they must know at some level that it would be Game Over for all elites (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#elitedisappear) if free energy was ever made publicly available.
Those who look for heroes to save the day (http://ahealedplanet.net/conun.htm#heroes), some Messiah to follow (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#messiah1), who want to chat up their social circles (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialcircle) and the like, are not the people I seek. I seek needles in haystacks (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=308&viewfull=1#post308) and know it. But it won’t take many of us. I just read something (https://mises.org/blog/what-nassim-taleb-can-teach-us) on one of the most astute voices in economics, who argued that it is always some small group that initiates change, never the “slumbering” masses. He understands. Now, if I can only recruit people like him to my effort. :) So far, no luck, and it will likely be up to my small and growing little band to make a dent in some way. We will see how it goes over the next 30 years or so.

Hi:
As I have written plenty, my “layers of the free energy onion (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#chart)” were developed from thousands of reactions to the idea of free energy, both from what I received and what fellow travelers did (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#reactions). There is nothing theoretical about that list. Level 1 (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#level1) is the most naïve layer and by far the most common, and I rarely receive that kind of reaction anymore, as I am very careful about whom I talk about Wade’s World with.
I generally hide out in corporate America and do not talk about my free energy days. I never broached the issue with my president at the trucking company (http://ahealedplanet.net/trucking.htm#footnotes) or with the man who hired me at my longest held position of my career, at a software company. But my closest peers would usually eventually hear about my past.
But in my old age, with the end of my career looming, I bring up the subject more than I used to, with high-ranking colleagues, and I brought it up with five of my former CFOs. Two I did it with after I no longer worked for them, one while he was still my peer, and the most recent instance was during the CFO’s last day on the job. While rank-and-file members of American society generally react to my experiences with shock and disbelief, as my experiences destroy their cherished fantasies of the society they live in, of how the capitalist and nationalist systems really work (http://ahealedplanet.net/other.htm#capitalism), the reactions of those CFOs are very different.
When I describe how inventors are routinely stolen from in corporate America (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#glimpse), or the kinds of organized suppression activities that we endured (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#levels1), their responses are along the lines of, “Sure, that is how it happens, and at the level you played at, it is no great surprise how you were treated.” For those who play at the high levels of the capitalist system, there is little about my adventures that surprises them, although my friend’s little show (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#underground), or Brian’s adventures (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#frontiers), are eye-opening for even them. But they never reacted with scoffing, partly because I had already proven myself a highly capable professional, which is why we had that conversation in the first place. It is similar to Greer’s (http://ahealedplanet.net/journey.htm#greer) statement that his UFO briefings, to the White House, Pentagon, Vatican, Capitol Hill, United Nations, and the like were never met with scoffing reactions. All recipients received the briefings with grave acknowledgment. Those CFOs reacted the same way when I told them about the real story of the JFK hit (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#wean).
But, there is also something in common with all of those reactions, which is that almost invariably, those people are all Level 8s (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#level8). While they don’t deny the reality of the organized suppression of free energy and the UFO/ET evidence (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ufo2), they never volunteered to help, either. Their general reaction was that Godzilla (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc) is real, and they didn’t want to become his next meal. So, while my tales, or Greer’s, can prove enlightening and even entertaining to such people, the last thing that they have in mind is challenging the evil structure of power on Earth. They just want to live out their lives in their well-paid niches, hope that they die before it gets too bad (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#spaceshipearth), and leave “doing something” about the current state of affairs to fools such as Greer, me, and my pals (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#adventures).
Is that better than the denial reactions (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level1) that comprise more than 99% of how the masses react? At least, it is better than the vulture reactions (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#oleary) by the world’s retail elite, as they play their fake philanthropy games (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#philanthropy1). I won’t get on the case of my former CFOs, as it is more sentient than the denial/fear reactions that the masses react with, or titillating tabloid conspiracism, but it is also a long way from wanting to help, which I certainly did not expect from them, and I consider them all my friends today. Looking for needles (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialcircle)…

Hi:
This weekend I have a little time to write, and will try to clear out my stack of current events and articles. I am always a little ambivalent when writing about current events. It is easy to get sucked into the drama, the personalities, the circus, and lose sight of the bigger picture. Just like with how the best scientists strive for both big picture and detailed awareness (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#specialists), the best way to view current events is to attempt to also see the bigger picture and take the long view.
It is not often that I read something about World War II that provides important new information, but I recently read an article (http://www.strategic-culture.org/news/2017/05/04/deep-history-us-britain-never-ending-cold-war-russia.html) that helped gain perspective on the latest round of anti-Russian hysteria (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page7?p=811&viewfull=1#post811), which Uncle Ed also wrote about recently (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page13?p=899&viewfull=1#post899). That article discusses recent revelations (http://www.dw.com/en/un-holocaust-files-reveal-allies-knowledge/a-38498671?maca=en-newsletter_en_Newsline-2356-html-newsletter) of how the USA and UK knew very well about the Nazi death camps long before the war ended, and how the information was suppressed by the USA and UK. It has taken 70 years for the documents to be released to the public. From the knowledge of the death camps (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm#toward) to helping build the Nazi war machine (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm#brown) to hiring all of the useful Nazis (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm#gehlen), the thrust of that article reads like a summary of my war essay (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm).
A primary purpose of my war essay was to put a dent in the heroic self-image that the USA has (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm#good), especially around World War II. There is nothing to cheer too loudly about. About all that Americans can say is: “Hitler was worse!” But, it does not win friends in the USA to acknowledge that Hitler’s crime was following England’s and the USA’s example (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#hitler) a little too faithfully. The USA’s and UK’s enemy was always Russia, ever since the Russian Revolution provided an alternative to unbridled capitalism and imperialism. The Nazis were useful Western tools in the war against the Soviet Union, weakening it greatly. That several million Jews died in the effort did not arouse much interest in the West. A far greater number of Slavs died, and hardly anybody in the West cared about that, either. We saw echoes of that in the Western dismantling of Yugoslavia (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#yugoslavian) and the attacks on Serbia (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#kosovo), which is now another landlocked nation, courtesy of the West’s geopolitics.
You really have to have your head in the sand to believe anything that is presented about Russia in the Western media (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#big). It is all lies and propaganda.
On another subject, it is not often that I read something sensible on the current state of Earth’s ability to support human civilization, especially in the financial press, but here is a pretty good one (https://mishtalk.com/2017/05/04/earth-overshoot-how-sustainable-is-population-growth/). In a zero-sum Earth, the rise of humans came at the expense of all other species on Earth, other than the ones we found useful or that found a niche in what humanity wrought, such as coyotes. The author got the date of the first of the big mass extinctions wrong (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ordovicianextinction), so he is in over his head on some areas, but on others, not bad, not bad at all. I find it kind of bizarre that articles like that (the article that introduces it) say that the Peak Oilers were wrong, when they were entirely right. Peak Oil (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#peakoil) was reached over a decade ago. To say that they were wrong is to not understand what Peak Oil means. What Hubbert first wrote about (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#hubbert), before I was born, was that conventional oil would run out, and he nailed the year that the USA reached Peak Oil, and was close on when global Peak Oil would be reached.
The current fracking boom is not about conventional oil, but is sucking at the dregs of Earth’s hydrocarbon deposits, the low-EROI stuff (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#eroi) that likely can’t sustain industrial civilizations. To say that the Peak Oilers were wrong is incredibly ignorant. Humanity is using up a non-renewable resource a million times as fast as it was made, it will all be gone in this century, and people want to niggle about what year the plateau was reached? That is like arguing about how many angels can dance on the head of a pin, but those inane arguments proliferate, and was in the financial blog’s introduction to that article.
Best,
Wade

Hi:
As an addendum to a recent post (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1150823&viewfull=1#post1150823), if an American businessperson is the least bit worldly, what I survived is no great surprise. An obvious implication is that those billionaires who swarmed Greer (http://ahealedplanet.net/journey.htm#greer) or Dennis were very well aware of the organized suppression (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#levels1). Bill Gates and the other “philanthropists (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#philanthropy1)” have certainly been approached many times on the free energy issue (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5), and you never hear a public peep on the issue from them. Why do you think that is? Quite a few reasons come to mind, but the bottom line, to me, is that they are well aware of the situation, but none of them has the courage to publicly admit the real situation, much less do anything about it, unless they can swoop in for the kill (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#oleary). So, when I see Bill Gates advocating nuclear energy in China as some kind of “solution,” I have to shake my head.
I admit that people such as Richard Stallman (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/73-Darren-Geffert-s-introductory-posts?p=130&viewfull=1#post130) or the luminaries of the Left (http://ahealedplanet.net/radleft.htm#religion) are simply naïve (http://ahealedplanet.net/conun.htm#naive) and ideologically opposed (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#weakness) to the idea of free energy or that the global elite (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc) actually exist (and Bill Gates and David Rockefeller (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page13?p=888&viewfull=1#post888) are/were not members of that club). Those billionaires did not become rich by challenging the system that garnered them their wealth, they are well aware of who really runs the show, and it isn’t them. The GCs see Bill Gates as a boy with his toys, and as long as he behaves himself with his inconsequential activities, he can play to his heart’s content.
This is just one of many reasons why it is delusional to go chasing after “philanthropists” (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#rich) and the like. Once in a great while, the wealthy do come to the table to play the game, are quickly disabused of their bright ideas (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#windmill), and they go scurrying back to their mansions.
The field is really wide open, as far as making a dent goes. Virtually nobody on Earth has the right stuff (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/52-Helpful-Prerequisites-for-Forum-Participation?p=69&viewfull=1#post69) to even try. People don’t need money, influence, or even all that much talent or intelligence to help with what I am doing (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir). They just need to care (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=308&viewfull=1#post308), be awake (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=309&viewfull=1#post309), and be willing to do the work. But there are not many of them on Earth, at least proportionally (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialcircle). That is not a judgement (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#judge1); those are just the numbers, but I hear no end of free newcomers denying that reality as they go chat up their social circles and advocate all of those paths to failure (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#approaches). They really don’t need much courage, either, but the crazy part is they almost all hide behind their “anonymity” on the Internet, thinking that that protects them somehow from Godzilla’s minions, but then they go chat up their social circles, which is where the danger is, not singing with me. I get this all the time. If they can refrain from proselytizing to their social circles, all will be well, and they will have nothing to fear from Godzilla, but they get the risks entirely backwards regarding what I am doing.
It is time for a different approach, and Brian and Dennis instantly realized that I was doing something different (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=918852&viewfull=1#post918852). We will see how it goes.

Hi:
Russia and China are today convinced that the USA is planning to wage an offensive nuclear war (http://www.fort-russ.com/2017/04/us-forces-preparing-sudden-nuclear.html), and I can’t blame them. The neocons that run Washington D.C. are being openly compared to Sauron (http://www.strategic-culture.org/news/2017/05/06/sauron-rules-in-washington.html), and I just read an article (http://www.counterpunch.org/2017/05/05/war-and-empire-the-american-way-of-life/) by the author of a book on the American Empire, in work that reads very much (http://www.counterpunch.org/2017/02/01/still-on-the-same-path-to-armageddon/) like mine does (and here is an article (http://www.counterpunch.org/2017/04/21/why-does-north-korea-want-nukes/) on the history of North Korea and the USA). I just ordered his book, which is unusual for me on that subject, as I already wrote the book on it. Last month, my American Empire (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm) essay was the second most popular on my site, after my big essay (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm). It is “interesting” to see my American Empire essay wax and wane in popularity over the past 15 years, depending on whether the USA is throwing around its imperial weight or not.
While Hillary was openly McCarthy-esque in her anti-Russian ravings, Trump took a different tack, at least while he was campaigning, but he has been completely coopted by the evil-minded neocons. The saber-rattling is a reaching a deafening crescendo these days. Scary times.

Hi:
As I have written plenty, I cannot overemphasize the learning experience that my ride with Dennis was (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=601&viewfull=1#post601), especially the four-year stint that ended in the spring of 1990. Without that radicalizing experience, I would not have embarked on my studies and writings since then, and even if I had, it would have been a stunted effort, hampered by my experience and naïveté (http://ahealedplanet.net/conun.htm#naive). Without those real-world experiences, I would likely not have much worth saying.
While I had my real-world anthropology lessons during my ride with Dennis, and to a lesser degree, Brian (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#meet), my questions regarding why our approaches, or those of our fellow travelers (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#approaches), never came close to working were partially answered by the findings of anthropology, particularly in my lifetime. What I found particularly fascinating were the evolutionary roots of human sociality, and digesting studies on the subject provided a great deal of illumination for why our approaches never had a chance, even leaving aside the organized suppression (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#levels1).
Social animals are social because sociality enhances individual survival (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialreason), plain and simple, and it always hinges on the energy issue. I know of no exceptions. How social animals adapt their sociality to changing energetics is the focus of a great deal of scientific and scholarly effort, and extends to today’s industrial civilization.
Simians (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#monkeys) marginalized prosimians (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#primate1) wherever they coexisted, as simians ruled the day, with sociality dominant, while prosimians were nocturnal loners, only coming together to procreate. Simian societies are all marked by dominance hierarchies, in a pattern that continues to today’s humanity. Studying simian sociality led to the term “Machiavellian intelligence (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#rhesus1)” being used to describe the use that they put their intelligence toward, which reached its pre-human apotheosis in chimpanzees. Frans de Waal, after a career spent studying chimps, bonobos, and other simians, considers chimp social intelligence to be equivalent to human social intelligence, which is quite a statement. Humans are better at toolmaking and other “sophisticated” acts, but de Waal challenges any human to successfully navigate the chimps’ social environment. There are no random acts in chimp societies, but every social act is designed with an outcome in mind. As de Waal studied a captive chimp colony in his home nation of the Netherlands, he turned to Machiavelli’s writings to help understand what he was seeing, and he introduced the term “Machiavellian intelligence” to primatology.
This will take a few posts to cover, which will come over the coming week.

Wade

Hi:
In the studies for my big essay, many aspects of biology were amazing, from the earliest life (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#luca) to how life became complex (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#mitochondria) to the parade of life forms in the eon of complex life (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ecosystem), and one of the most fascinating (and sometimes disgusting) was the incredible array of ways to reproduce, from the earliest bacteria onward. The invention of sexual reproduction (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#sex) was a watershed event in evolution, and its variations are also mind-boggling. Mushrooms (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mating_in_fungi) have literally thousands of sexes (http://www.independent.co.uk/news/scientists-discover-why-fungi-have-36000-sexes-1119181.html), some fish change their gender, some organisms can choose to reproduce sexually or asexually, and gender roles can become very pronounced. The bottom line is that successful reproduction ensures the survival of the species, which is a biological imperative (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#liferequirements).
Mammals (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#mammalsdevelop) heavily invest in their offspring, particularly females, which often led to very different roles for males and females. Primate dimorphism (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sexual_dimorphism_in_non-human_primates#Ultimate_mechanisms) is thought to be a result of sexual selection and male competition for mating privileges. The biggest, strongest, and best-fighting males would get the greatest mating privileges, as the females would choose them, and bigger, stronger males were more likely to survive predation (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sexual_dimorphism_in_non-human_primates#Terrestriality). This dynamic persists all the way to humans.
Just this past weekend, a subject that I have wondered about for years had an article in Scientific American devoted to it, on paternity. In my previous post, I mentioned de Waal’s comment on chimp social intelligence, and I’ll have a lot to write in my essay update on chimp behavior and social organization. But for all of a chimp’s undeniable intelligence, perhaps in second place on Earth next to humans (although I doubt it (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#dolphins)), chimps do not understand that when they have sex, they are creating offspring. While mothers will always recognize their offspring, fathers don’t.
The last common ancestor of chimps and humans (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#chimpsplit) almost certainly resembled a chimp. The human branch dramatically changed, and one of the most fascinating and contentious subjects in all of biology is what happened and when on the march to becoming human (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#path). Chimps pass the mirror test (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#mirrortest), which is likely a sign of sentience, at least to some degree. When males of the human line understood paternity, it was likely the catalyst for dramatic changes in human sociality, and likely led to the nuclear family. Just when that happened is one of the more compelling questions in anthropology. Behaviorally modern humans (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#leap) surely understood, and just how far back paternity was recognized will be explored and debated longer than I will be alive.
Best,
Wade

Hi:
In evolutionary studies, a common question is whether an observed common feature among disparate organisms came from descent or convergence (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#convergent). The same question arises with features of human societies, in many ways, from religions (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#dancing) to languages to agriculture (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#kebaran) to civilizations (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#pristine1). Many aspects of human societies (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#up) are thought to have been shared by the Founder Group that left Africa (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#founderexit).
What studies of chimps and other social animals have shown is that outside pressure enhances a society’s internal cohesion, and nothing enhances the internal cohesion of human societies more than warfare, as societies battle for survival. The roots of religion are in warfare. In chimp societies, males constantly vie for power, and they kill each other (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#coalitionary) regularly. After the alpha male, Luit, was given his fatal wounds by his rivals (https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5436c971e4b0a1999029f096/t/58667b6bb8a79b11ffe4e296/1483111275789/Chimpanzee+Politics+Springer+2016.pdf), in an attack in which they tore off his testicles, he remained inseparable from his killers. Luit readily acknowledged their dominance even as he died from his wounds. Even to their deaths, chimps will still band together, as they never know when they will need to cooperate to fight off a neighboring society. The work of Frans de Waal and other primate researchers often makes people uneasy, as their work shows the deep evolutionary roots of many human traits, not all of which are noble.
Somewhere along the line from chimp to human (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal1), the human line learned to fashion complex tools, master fire (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#fire1), hunt large game (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#hunter1), cook (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#cooking), and other skills that are the sole province of big-brained humanity (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#chimpbrain). Somewhere along the line, the human line learned about paternity (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/96-Human-sociality-and-free-energy?p=926&viewfull=1#post926), which likely helped lead to the nuclear family.
In all behaviorally modern (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#leap) human societies from the beginning, the Golden Rule was the social ideal (it is far from a Christian invention), but it was only reserved for members of the society, AKA the in-group (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ingroup). Anybody outside of the society was fair game (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ingroup1). We still see that today in human societies. Perhaps one in a hundred Americans knows or cares about the millions of children (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#invading) that our society has murdered in the past generation. Only masters (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#infinite) such as Jesus (http://ahealedplanet.net/visions.htm#jesus) stressed that all of humanity is one (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#enemy). That diagram of de Waal’s (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page13?p=902&viewfull=1#post902) reflects a standard anthropological understanding today, in that all people look out for Number One, first, and when their survival needs are met, then their concern expands to their immediate family and kin, and only then might they look out for the interests of those beyond that small circle. People will eat their children (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page5?p=650&viewfull=1#post650) if they need to.
As I studied anthropology over the years, I was so ready for its findings, as I had already learned their most pointed findings in the crucible of my adventures (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm). When my own mother campaigned against me (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=400492&viewfull=1#post400492) and my own father threatened to feed me to the wolves (and I have not seen him since), the son that they had raised to be a Golden Boy (http://ahealedplanet.net/paths.htm#bookworm), whom they attacked when he acted at his most golden (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#it), I had long since stopped taking it very personally. I had already learned my journey’s most important lesson: personal integrity is the world’s scarcest commodity (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page6?p=708&viewfull=1#post708). I resisted that lesson every step of the way, until I had it beaten into my head in no uncertain terms. I see people resist and deny that lesson all the time. They have yet to learn, their egos may never let them, and they will likely never play on the high road (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=601&viewfull=1#post601), where those lessons can be learned in a most forceful way.

Hi:
The issue of consciousness is key for understanding sociality. The role of consciousness in physical reality is a central controversy in physics (mystical1). In today’s materialist evolutionary studies, consciousness is given an ancillary role, as an epiphenomenon of brain activity. As I wrote some months ago (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1122515&viewfull=1#post1122515), plants have nervous systems, make behavioral reactions to their environments, and their roots seem to be where the nerve impulses lead to and are “processed.” Who is to say that plants do not have consciousness, with the roots acting like brains do in animals?
Chimps have very calculating social lives, and arguably the leading chimp researcher after Jane Goodall put chimp social intelligence on par with humanity’s (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/96-Human-sociality-and-free-energy?p=925&viewfull=1#post925), but if they have no understanding of paternity, then they just have sex because they like to, driven by their biological impulses. Would you call that instinct? Where does that come from? And after food and safety, sex is the predominant concern of chimps, with males constantly vying for mating privileges. So, while chimps are highly calculating in how they vie for power, they may have no conception of why they do it, as they are driven by an irrational urge to do something that feels good, but is nature’s way of ensuring the continuance of the species. Materialists will say that there is little role for consciousness or even a plan in such dynamics, as species that played the energy and reproduction game the best survived, at least for a time, while those who played it less effectively went extinct (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#extinction).
I saw something very similar during my free energy days and years of study afterward. I watched people be suicidally stupid, but they would act as if they were being clever. I puzzled over that for a year or so before asking Dennis about it, and his reply was that people develop a grace in what they do, and even if they commit suicidally stupid acts, they can do it with style. In chimp and primate studies, one question is how rational chimp and human acts are, and in Primates and Philosophers (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1146317&viewfull=1#post1146317), it was readily acknowledged that people are far less rational than we like to admit. People often make emotional decisions and come up with rationales later, as post hoc justifications for irrational decisions.
In my initial days of study, as I encountered Uncles Noam (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#chomsky), Ed (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#manufacturing), and Howard (http://ahealedplanet.net/zinn.htm), their work was so at variance with mainstream thought that I sought out opposing viewpoints, to see how their work held up. What struck me was how irrational their critics were, and those critics were often leading voices amongst the USA’s intelligentsia. Noam and company also took it relatively easy on writers who did little more than justify elite privilege and the USA’s imperial behavior, and Uncle Ed wrote (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#ed) that those writers were incapable of understanding how irrational their work was.
As I went public with my first site in 1996 (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page9?p=805&viewfull=1#post805), I had my email address on my site and took on all comers until 2002. I began seeing the same things that Noam and company wrote about, in that my critics often seemed incapable of rational thought (http://ahealedplanet.net/critics.htm#false). At first, I thought that they were just being dishonest, and I definitely encountered plenty of that (http://ahealedplanet.net/dennis.htm#article), but it took many years before the truth of what Ed and friends wrote about finally sank in with me: my critics were incapable of being rational. The dynamic seems to be this: when facts and logic conflict with deeply cherished beliefs (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#dominant), which people adopted because they help them survive, then goodbye facts and logic (http://www.counterpunch.org/2003/07/15/considering-the-obvious/). People will justify eating their own children (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page5?p=650&viewfull=1#post650) to satisfy their hunger. With humanity, emotions rule, not rationality. There can be a certain “logic” to their actions, however, and what seems to serve their immediate self-interest is “rational” in their eyes, even if it is ultimately suicidal.
As one pal replied to my query, do not confuse conscious dishonesty with honest unconsciousness. How do you tell the difference?
I also see this in science, such as that cadre of Australian scientists who doggedly try to explain the megafauna extinctions as a result of climate change (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#climatechange2), as they “coincidentally” absolve humanity. I grew tired of their “evidence” and arguments long ago, but they keep churning out the scientific papers like it comes out of a factory. Or, those scientists who sold their souls to the hydrocarbon lobby (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/90-Global-Warming-Peak-Oil-and-related-topics?p=463&viewfull=1#post463) and challenge the Global Warming data.
Brian O had played the Paul Revere of Free Energy for five years (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#revere) when we traded notes. Brian gave me a litany of the denial and fear reactions (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#reactions) that he received to the idea of free energy, from the world’s leading academics, scientists, and “progressives,” and he finished up with openly wondering if humanity was a sentient species (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#sentience).
These issues are key ones for understanding human sociality, and I think that it is most helpful to go back to the roots of sociality (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialreason): it is all about survival. Sociality is adaptive and reactive, not proactive. It is similar to Bucky Fuller’s observation about politics (http://ahealedplanet.net/roots.htm#politics): it is all about shuffling the deck of scarcity in favor of who does the shuffling. Retail politics is useless for Epochal change, and so is sociality. This is why mass movement efforts (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level10) to manifest free energy do not have a prayer and never have. This is something that took me nearly twenty years and five different mass movement efforts to finally understand. I am not a quick learner. :)
Not all is lost, but the usual methods of “activism” have always been firmly trapped within their Epochs, as creatures of them. No Epochal Event (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochaltable) ever happened through some kind of social movement. The great social changes came as a result of tapping those new energy sources, not a cause of them. Confusing cause and effect has led to a great deal of ineffectual campaigning on the free energy front (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#approaches). If human sociality is recognized for what it is, and realizing that it is useless for Epochal change, then an effort might have a prayer. I have a lot more to write on this subject, but it is off to work.

Hi:
Briefly, before I run off to work, sociality is an adaptive behavior designed to aid survival. The human line’s sociality goes back to at least monkeys (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#monkeysplit), and many human traits are very evident in monkeys (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#rhesus1), but ape sociality, and particularly chimps and bonobos, is another order of magnitude in sophistication, and Frans de Waal stated that chimp social intelligence is equivalent to humanity’s (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/96-Human-sociality-and-free-energy?p=925&viewfull=1#post925). Chimp societies are brutal and murderous (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#coalitionary), and killing infants is common (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#infanticide1), which is typical in primates.
However, one primate species famously overcame it, and how they did it is an early sign of free energy’s transformative potential (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5). Apes and monkeys cannot swim, and with the growing and shrinking rainforest in equatorial Africa in this ice age (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#quaternary), one region saw gorillas leave, as they are the masters of the rainforest and cannot live outside it. The Congo River formed and isolated the chimps from those emigrated gorillas (or the gorillas died off as their habitat disappeared and they were unable to adapt), and those chimps, in their isolation for perhaps two million years, had their food supply double, with their gorilla competition gone. With that new economy, with a doubled food supply, the chimps that became bonobos radically reengineered their societies, so much so that they are a new species (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#bonobo1).
There is no record of infanticide among the bonobos, or any violent deaths. If a male even remotely appears to threaten an infant, the entire community will come down on him, and hard. Bonobos settle everything with sex, and life is one big orgy. If two societies of captive chimps are mixed, it would be a battle to the death, to establish dominance. If two societies of captive bonobos are mixed, it becomes one big orgy, and the females lead the festivities.
Something similar happened with humans. Hunter-gatherer societies are the human journey’s most violent (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#deathrate), but where the big game was hunted to extinction and the climate conducive to it (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page7?p=873&viewfull=1#post873), women domesticated plants, agriculture began (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#kebaran), and those early horticultural societies saw women’s status rise to the degree to where men left their natal societies to mate, which was a first in the human/ape line, going back at least as far as gorillas (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#migratehome). That broke up the male gangs that had dominated human societies to that time, and those horticultural societies became preindustrial humanity’s most peaceful (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#patrilineal1).
As the energy surplus of agriculture became large enough to use for political purposes, however, men rose to dominance again, and the rise of civilization led to the decline in women’s status (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#womenstatus1), as they became mere broodmares of agrarian economies, and their status did not rise again until industrialization (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#demographic).
My point is that the changes in social organization of bonobos and horticultural and industrial societies were made possible by an increase in the available energy (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#energysurplus). Without the energy increase, the rest could not have happened. When I see New Agers (http://ahealedplanet.net/purpose.htm#newage) and social activists (http://ahealedplanet.net/radleft.htm) argue for some new kind of thinking and social organization to emerge because we “wake up” or come up with something clever, they are ignorant of how sociality works and the history of their species. Again, I learned these lessons the hard way during my adventures (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=601&viewfull=1#post601), and only many years later, after deep study, could I truly understand why our efforts were doomed (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level10). I already had a very good idea why (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page6?p=708&viewfull=1#post708), back in the 1980s, but those many years of study made it clear in ways that my years of activism never could.

I suspect part of the reason people make the subconscious assumption that their attempts to "wake up" others will bear fruit is because for most of human history, social groups were usually limited to 100-200 people within the range of Dunbar's number. Within that relative sphere of influence, one's attempts to persuade their social group could sometimes work, but even then it generally had to be grounded in the context of appealing to the ingrained conscious and unconscious needs of others.
That kind of approach doesn't work when scaled up to a global society of billions of people, especially not for efforts that require numbers and collaboration greater than Dunbar's number.
Another factor is that the needs of the soul and the needs of physical body with its imperative to survive and reproduce are not one and the same. Those of us who made a conscious effort to wake up, grow spiritually and treat the planet better are likely more centered in our soul awareness to begin with, and it's wrong to assume that the same is true of others (there's esoteric theories too about Starseeds and different soul lineages, but I won't get into those).
Though the outward focus for my therapeutic practice tends to be treating neuoropathic pain or stiff joints, the true, original essence of the lineage energy I work with is focused on helping souls reconnect to their true essence and find and fulfill their destiny. Removing pain is actually a side effect that helps part the clouds so a client's awareness can expand. In that sense I certainly believe in the far-reaching, harmonic effects of bringing Light into the world. However, people evolve at their own pace. "Fulfilling destiny" for many may simply entail becoming a nicer person to their family. It's not a given either that they will grow, they can still choose to resist. So, although doing healing work, building solar panels in your neighbor or making permaculture farms and all the other strategies people try can certainly have merit, none of these are enough to make the human race suddenly "wake up" and avert the disasters that will soon arrive in the coming decades.

Hi Chris:
Very astute. I’ll have more to write on the subject this weekend.
To all:
My wife and I just got back from a Robin Hobb (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robin_Hobb) book signing, which might be the only author we would jointly see. Twenty years ago next month, I stayed up all night long reading her second Assassin book (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Royal_Assassin), and have eagerly awaited every book since then. The Pacific Northwest is the last bastion of the Romantic writers. It is a rainy night, and time to curl up with her latest (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assassin%27s_Fate), and what may be last, Fitz and the Fool book. Hobb is one of the few fantasy writers who transcended the genre. Reading work like hers has helped me stay grounded through my own authorial process.
Best,
Wade

Hi Chris:
You are bringing up big issues (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1152338&viewfull=1#post1152338), which are key for what I am doing, and I kind of came at the issue backwards, one might say. When I was 16 (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#glimpse), when I first got my energy dreams, free energy was not remotely on my radar. Even when free energy was on my radar, when I became Dennis’s partner (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page3?p=614&viewfull=1#post614), the epochal significance of what we were pursuing was also beyond our imagination. While we saw a radical transformation of American society, and I was thinking in environmental and global terms almost immediately, if I think about those changes that I see coming today (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#immediate) with free energy, how many of those did I see in 1987? The end of air pollution, for sure, and an economic boon to humanity, but I doubt that many others on that list I thought much about in 1987. Most were really not on my horizon of awareness back then. I had a lot to learn. Even when I look at my visions essay (http://ahealedplanet.net/visions.htm) from 2001 or so, and what free energy can mean (http://ahealedplanet.net/visions.htm#can1), I was still falling far short of an epochal perspective. It was not until encountering Bucky (http://ahealedplanet.net/roots.htm#fuller) that I began to really do that, and my current epochal framework really did not begin to fall into place until 2010 (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#paradigm), although my “big picture” part of our DOE proposal (http://www.brianoleary.info/Impacts.html) in 2009 showed that I was thinking pretty epochally before encountering Niele’s book.
So, while my current epochal framework was a long time in coming, even back in Seattle I could see that customers whose “skin in the game” was waiting for the world’s best heating system (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#new) being put on their homes for free (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#sfs), or employees and business associates who could only see getting rich or keeping their jobs, were not going to be much help for what we were doing. Dennis’s “the people really care (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page3?p=618&viewfull=1#post618)” was a naïve, idealist fantasy, and over the past 30 years, I have watched Dennis go from the people really care to “almost nobody cares, but I am still looking (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#tailings),” to “my allies hurt me more than my enemies did (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#allies),” to “I am ready to God to call me home, after my dark journey on Earth.”
I could put a thread up on Avalon, titled something like, “What happened when I tried to interest my social circle in free energy.” I would begin it with my own experiences, and quite a few Avalonians could chime in with their own, and almost invariably, they will be stories of reactions of denial (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level1), fear (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level5), attacks, and ostracism. I always caution free energy newcomers against going out and proselytizing to their social circles, but they almost always do, and the best of them eventually come back to me with their tales of woe. At best, they might get a Level 4 reaction (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level4), of, “Let me know when you can deliver free energy to my home.” The only way that my conversations with former CFOs (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/45-Chapter-28-What-Has-Not-Worked-So-Far-and-What-Might/page2?p=921&viewfull=1#post921) did not go that way was because they were worldly and I was not talking about some site or YouTube clip that I stumbled into, but my own experiences and those of my close colleagues (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#adventures). They were also Level 8s (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#level8), too, not recruits for my choir (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir) efforts. In fact, if they had expressed some “do something” interest, I would have tried to dissuade them. I was not trying to send them into the meat grinder.
But why all of the denial, fear, etc.? That is where I was naïve (http://ahealedplanet.net/conun.htm#naive) and slow to learn, although not as slow as Dennis was. In one way, learning the truth about the human level of integrity (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page6?p=708&viewfull=1#post708) is not fun, but on the other, it can be extremely liberating and instructive, not asking people to act differently from how they are, not how we might fantasize them to be. So, I learned early on that people’s horizons of awareness rarely extended past their immediate self-interest, but it was not until many years later that I really understood why, and you are on the trail of it with Dunbar’s number (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dunbar%27s_number), of people being a little nicer to their social circles, etc. The vast majority of people are not even potty-trained, ethically. Everybody outside of their social circles is fair game (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ingroup1), and Jesus’s “love the enemy (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#enemy)” ideal is completely off of their radar. Almost nobody on Earth today is fit for choir duties, and that is not a judgment (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#judge1), but just understanding the numbers (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialcircle).
When people hear about free energy, even among the stupidest of humanity, it soon becomes evident that it means the end of the world as they know it, and they react in fear. That it also means a potential heaven on Earth (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?32399-A-Future-Earth&p=672748&viewfull=1#post672748) never registers with them. They are unwilling and unable to think that far. Denial is also a fear reaction, as a way of staying unconscious, and if you are the person bringing them that “good news,” then you are going to be a problem that they have to solve, and one way is to eliminate you from their social circle. The more “benign” reactions are variations of, “I don’t want to hear it anymore,” but can range to, “I don’t want to have anything more to do with you,” to attempting to scuttle your relationship with others in your social circle. I have heard many tales of ostracism, including having careers wrecked.
Again, it took me many years to finally understand what was happening. I got both barrels of it via my own experiences, and when my parents attacked me (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/96-Human-sociality-and-free-energy?p=927&viewfull=1#post927), it no longer even hurt anymore, as I had long since learned that particular lesson. But understanding the reasons for why people were that way was a long time in coming. Yes indeed, free energy is an infinitely bigger issue than trying to influence your social circle, and when you understand the magnitude of it, and understand why people are social (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialreason), then the folly of chatting up your social circles begins to become evident.
I have stated it plenty before: humanity is not going to suddenly become enlightened with if/when free energy is finally unveiled, but it will have epochal significance, and human activities such as warfare (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#peacekeeping), environmental destruction (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#immediate), and the like will no longer make sense. I firmly believe that humanity is not stupid enough to continue with such ultimately suicidal behaviors when they no longer make economic sense (that immediate self-interest issue), but they will not begin to understand until free energy is a daily reality (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#brink), which is normal. No coming epoch was comprehensible (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#imagine) to people until it arrived, and only then did humanity create a different social organization. The great social changes never came out of nowhere, via some enlightenment event, but were adaptations to a new economic reality, and that has always been an energy issue, at its root. In ways, I am trying to do something unprecedented in the human journey: imagining the next epoch before it arrives, as a way to help it arrive. Not many are going to be able to help with that, but I only need one-in-a-million.
I have a lot more to write about this, but it is time to start my busy day.
Best,

Hi:
I am going to give some examples of sociality in the Epochs, and how it was always economically conditioned. I call the first Epoch of the human journey (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal1) the time from the first stone tools (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#stonetool1) and when the human line’s brain began growing dramatically (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#chimpbrain) to the appearance of behaviorally modern humans (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#leap). That Epoch is my invention, and arguments could be made to move its beginning to the chimp/human split (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#chimpsplit), or it could be moved up to the appearance of Homo erectus (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#homoerectus), or the first evidence of man the hunter driving species to extinction a million years ago (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#hunter1). I defined the epoch as the transition from our relatively small-brained ancestors to behaviorally modern humans. That entire timeframe is one of fierce controversy, new evidence being continually adduced, and new hypotheses, some of which are relatively radical.
In Epoch Zero, if you will, we also see how a doubling of the food supply led to a radical social reengineering that led to bonobos (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/96-Human-sociality-and-free-energy?p=929&viewfull=1#post929). Human dimorphism likely reflects dynamics that continued throughout the path to humanity, with males vying for mates and survival (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/96-Human-sociality-and-free-energy?p=926&viewfull=1#post926). That male penchant to become the alpha is deeply ingrained in humanity until this day. Until about 500 thousand years ago, there is little evidence of hunting sophistication, but that began to change with the Middle Stone Age (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#msa), when stone-tipped spears began to appear, and at about 400 thousand years ago, there is evidence of professional butchering of kills, which became a practice that continued all the way to the Domestication Revolution (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal3). While there were some brief Golden Ages of the Hunter-Gatherer (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#huntergatherer), as humans intruded into fresh biomes that had not seen humans before, particularly in Australia (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#australianmegafauna) and the Americas (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#clovis), those hundreds of thousands of years were chiefly characterized by a struggle for existence, of getting enough food to feed the bands, especially with the pronounced ice age impacts on the climate (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#iceageeurope1).
There was rarely much energy surplus (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#energysurplus), and if a man tried to become the “big man” of his band, it threatened the band’s survival, as it could not afford to have any kind of hierarchy. Hunter-gatherer social organization was largely designed to keep men in their place, so that no man ever became too big for his britches. When a man brought home a kill, there was no bragging, no “this kill is mine,” and the like. His role was to humbly bring the meat to the band and let others perform the butchery. Professional butcher marks go back to 400,000 years. If a man ever tried to dominate the band, he would be coerced back into line, through shaming and threats. If he proved recalcitrant, the last resort was to banish him from the band, which virtually guaranteed a swift end to his life, or execution. If execution was the verdict, it was arranged for a close relative to perform it, so that there would not be acts of reprisal. The book Moral Origins (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page5?p=650&viewfull=1#post650) particularly covers this territory.
During the Golden Age of the Hunter-Gatherer, when meat was plentiful, the strict enforcement of the social order relaxed, as life was relatively easy. Human territoriality (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#territoriality), which goes back to monkeys (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#rhesus1) and likely far earlier, also relaxed, as moving on to fresh hunting grounds was easily done. It was only as the easy meat disappeared that human territoriality reasserted itself, with its concomitant increase in violence (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#violence1), and when times really got hard, the band itself would disintegrate, as it was everybody for themselves, and in hard winters, the Inuit would even eat their own children. With humanity’s “flexible” conscience, the parents justified the cannibalism with the idea that they could have more children when times got better.
In each instance that I am citing in this post, human sociality adapted to the economic situation: easy-going when times were good, to draconian and scarcely imaginable to modern humanity when times were bad, which was always about the available food, which meant caloric energy.
I am going to run through all of the Epochs in this series of posts, and show how human sociality adapted to each one.

Wade

Hi:
In the late Second Epoch, any man who strayed into a neighboring territory was usually killed on sight, as the assumption was that he was there to steal a woman, and any woman who did that straying delivered herself for stealing.
In the Second Epoch, communities never increased past Dunbar’s number (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dunbar%27s_number), as the land could not support it. Homo sapiens killed off all of the world’s easy meat and drove all other human species to extinction (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#neanderthalextinction). Only animals that lived on remote islands survived the onslaught of Second Epoch humans, such as the last mammoths (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#refugia1), the bird sanctuary of New Zealand (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#newzealand), the semi-continent of Madagascar, etc. When humans finally arrived at those places, they quickly killed off the easy meat.
In Australia (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#australia), the fleet-footed kangaroo could not be hunted to extinction, after the surviving ones (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#australianmegafauna) learned wariness of humans, so that culture relied on big game hunting until the British arrival more than 40,000 years later. Australia’s aboriginal societies were all patrilocal and mutually hostile, and that is likely why they never developed agriculture (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page7?p=873&viewfull=1#post873).
However, in a few places on Earth, perhaps as few as two, but perhaps as many as nine, when the easy meat was rendered extinct and the climate was conducive to it (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#kebaran), plants were domesticated, almost certainly by women, as an adjunct to their gathering duties. While agriculture in China and Peru may not have been pristine, influenced by the Fertile Crescent and Mesoamerica, the civilizations that arose there were pristine (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#pristine1). Civilizations are energy-concentrating and problem-solving devices, and agriculture led to civilization. But before civilization arose, the domestication of plants allowed for unprecedented population density (other than those short-lived mammoth villages (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gravettian)), and great social changes came with it.
For one thing, people became sedentary for the first time (again, other than those mammoth villages), and women’s status rose so much by their invention of agriculture that many of those societies became matrilocal, which broke up the male gangs (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page7?p=873&viewfull=1#post873), and those became the human journey’s most peaceful preindustrial societies. That Neolithic bliss did not last too long, however. Relatively gentle horticulture gave way to more intensive agriculture, which could wrest more caloric energy from the land, and the pattern was that cleared lands could produce crops, and the forests could provide fuel and building materials. Crops and forests fueled Third Epoch societies, but they were rarely sustainable, and no civilization ever was. All early civilizations collapsed (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#collapse) as they ran out of food and wood, often leaving behind a human-created desert (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#earlycivilizations).
Many changes attended the Third Epoch that domestication enabled, and I’ll survey them in the coming post or two.
Best,
Wade

Hi:
Before I get to the Third Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal3) and its impacts on human sociality, a brief recap is in order. No organism likes being coerced. One of the USA’s great myths (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#fathers) is that it invented freedom. Freedom is every organism’s ideal state. But survival on Earth meant that the ideal was rarely achieved, with each organism pitted against the others in a battle for survival. There is only so much energy to go around, limited by how much sunlight hits Earth.
To skip to near the end of the evolutionary journey that led to humans (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#heritage), chimp societies are male-dominated and exceedingly violent. A female chimp in the wild largely lives in isolation, partly so that her infant is not murdered by a male rival for her “affections.” But in captivity, female chimps band together against aggressive males, and the glimmerings of a sisterhood that came to fruition in bonobos (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/96-Human-sociality-and-free-energy?p=929&viewfull=1#post929) can be seen. In chimp societies, the female/male ratio is about two-to-one, and in bonobos, it is one-to-one, with the difference being male chimps that died violently. Imagine a human society in which half of the men die violently as they vie for women and territory.
To skip ahead to Second Epoch humans (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal2), violent males dominated those societies, and a woman’s fate was usually subject to male caprice. She was always vulnerable to being kidnapped from her society by a neighboring one and essentially being enslaved. In her own society, rape was a constant threat, as part of the array of behaviors in which men enforced their dominance. Second Epoch societies are the human journey’s most violent (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page7?p=873&viewfull=1#post873), with about a third of all men dying violently (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#deathrate) (but, at least, it is less than the violent death percentage of chimps! :) ) Slaughtering one’s neighbors and taking their women and territory was nearly an “ideal” of those cultures. The Myth of the Peaceful Savage (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#hobbes) is just that: a myth.
In those societies where women domesticated plants and they became matrilocal (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#patrilineal1), the male gangs were broken up, rape became a crime, and those were humanity’s most peaceful preindustrial societies. But that Neolithic bliss did not last long; domestication led to civilization and a decline in women’s status (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#womenstatus1), as they became the broodmares of agrarian societies.
Sedentary societies were radically different from nomadic ones. Only a local and stable energy source allowed for sedentism. Early horticulture gave birth to the village (and a preview was those short-live mammoth villages (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gravettian)). The various Neolithic expansions on Earth (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#maledna) (and Bantu expansion (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#bantu)) displaced hunter-gatherer societies in favor of farmers, and female hunter-gatherers mated with the farmers, which drove male hunter-gatherers from the gene pool.
With sedentism came possessions and a level of energy surplus that was new in the human journey (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochaltable). Before long, men began their climb to dominance once again, as the energy surplus was used for political purposes. One term for those new dominants is “big men (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big_man_(anthropology)).” With sedentism, people built homes, accumulated possessions, and instead of slaughtering one’s neighbors, they could be turned into possessions, and slavery began (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#slaverybeginning). Slavery became a hallowed institution all the way to the Fourth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal4), when industrialization made brute human labor economically obsolete (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#slaveryend).
Pretty much wherever agriculture appeared, civilization came a couple thousand years later (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#agciv), and is thought to be a problem-solving device. There are two primary theories on civilization formation: conflict and progress (http://ahealedplanet.net/hooked.htm#tainter). Civilizations brought benefits that agrarian life could not provide (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#cityadvantages), and was why for the entirety of agrarian civilizations, city populations were sustained by a constant influx of peasants from the hinterland. Cities were death traps, all the way to the 20th century (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#cityadvantages). Moving to the city was a gamble for peasants, but one that many readily wagered their lives on. City life could be better than life on the farm, if an enterprising peasant could “make it.” Part of that disparity was that cities conquered their hinterlands and set the terms of exchange, so that cities enriched themselves at the expense of the rural peasantry, and that is where the “conflict” theories arise from, as epitomized by Marx’s work (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#marx1). With the rise of cities came new kinds of humans: professionals (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#professions) and the elite (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#elitesappear). Only with the energy-concentrating abilities of cities could professionals and the elite arise, and they have been with humanity ever since. The reality was that agrarian civilizations did not produce enough energy surplus (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#energysurplus) to support more than a tiny professional class and elite, on the order of 10-to-20% of the population. At late as 1870, 70% of America’s workforce lived on farms (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#englishworkforce).
Many dramatic social changes came with the Third Epoch, but none of them would have happened without the local and stable energy supply that agriculture produced. There is a lot more to say about the Third Epoch and changes in human sociality, but time for work.

Hi:
Before I get to the social effects of civilization, Jane Goodall has watched chimps make “waterfall displays (http://www.janegoodall.org.uk/chimpanzees/chimpanzee-central/15-chimpanzees/chimpanzee-central/24-waterfall-displays)” many times, and others have noted chimp ritual behavior (https://www.theatlantic.com/science/archive/2016/03/chimpanzee-spirituality/475731/). Those behaviors appear to reflect the roots of religion.
With the rise of DNA testing, many controversies have been largely settled. Negritos (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#negrito), the San (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#kung), Australian aborigines (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#tasmania), and others are relict populations of the original behaviorally modern humans (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#leap). Those African languages with their click consonants (parodied in The Gods Must Be Crazy (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Gods_Must_Be_Crazy)) are what human language sounded like 60,000 years ago. Those relict populations became isolated, with Australians and Negritos being pockets of isolated humans from the original migration from Africa (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#founderexit). The San stayed behind. While agrarian and industrial peoples took all the good land, those relict populations kept hunting and gathering on marginal or isolated lands.
They all had similar religious rituals, of singing and dancing (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#dancing). Australian societies numbered 500 or so, beyond Dunbar’s number (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dunbar%27s_number) that Chris mentions (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1152338&viewfull=1#post1152338), and while grooming (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#grooming) in chimps and gossip in humans was the social glue of Dunbar’s number societies, the hunter-gatherer religion helped hold together larger societies, and particularly to prevail in warfare against their neighbors.
I know (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#silva) that materialism (http://ahealedplanet.net/conun.htm#subtle) is a false faith, but anthropologists generally think that those early religious rituals were just social inventions, bereft of deeper meaning or any connection with the unseen. I doubt it. All of today’s organized religions are, to one degree or another, distortions of valid teachings, usually turned into a means of social control and lining the priesthood’s pockets. The hunter-gatherer religion also became a utilitarian practice, with men using it to prevail over their prey or neighboring societies. But that did not mean that there were not valid roots to their religious practices, no matter how corrupt they became in a world of scarcity and fear (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#coming). The Australian dream time (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dreamtime) is one of those practices that likely had valid roots. It looks like the temple preceded the city (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G%C3%B6bekli_Tepe). The hunter-gatherer religions lasted all the way to the first cities, when professional priesthoods wiped them out (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#dancing1).
Orthodox agrarian religions have fought against the “ecstatic” throwback sects to this day (Shakers and Pentecostals are two extant examples), and the spectacle of the modern rock concert is a throwback to the original religion. My wife and I visited an A Course in Miracles cult (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Endeavor_Academy) in 1994, and ecstatic religion was in full display, in one of the most bizarre manifestations that I ever saw, and I thought I saw it all in my Southern California days (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#research). Christian pews, with penitents on their knees, were designed to keep them from dancing.
The priesthood was one of the first urban professions, and they soon entered into a Faustian deal with early elites by conferring divine status to them (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#divinity), which can be seen in the Epic of Gilgamesh (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gilgamesh), for instance. Elites really had no purpose in early civilization, merely being the “winners” who came up with ways to garner a disproportionate share of the economic surplus that civilization produced, living in their palaces (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#elitesappear). It was only later that elite-justifying ideologies were concocted, giving elites a civic function.
The appearance of professions (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#professions) and elites is the universal and enduring feature of civilizations to this day, even as organized religion has steadily lost its sway in the Fourth Epoch. From the beginning of civilization, monumental architecture erected to the elite, as a form of “display (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#display1),” appeared in all civilizations, as a human universal (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#up). Most of the “wonders of the world” were elite aggrandizing monuments, beginning with the ziggurats of Sumer (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#sumer) and pyramids of Egypt (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#egyptold). Wherever civilization appeared, so did elites with their aggrandizing monumental architecture, and human sociality profoundly changed.
In cities, humanity was no longer organized along kin lines (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#clans), but along professional lines. People who did not know each other did not kill each other on sight, which was a far cry from the late Second Epoch. There is much more to come.

Hi:
One thing that my big essay makes clear, but I might be a little more explicit on when I update it, is that the differences within humanity’s Epochs (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochaltable) were trivial compared to the differences between them. The First Epoch had stone tools (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#stonetool1) and fire (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#fire1), social organization was the nomadic band, and was likely not much different from chimp social organization (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/96-Human-sociality-and-free-energy?p=929&viewfull=1#post929). The Second Epoch had behaviorally modern humans (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#leap), a highly sophisticated toolkit, fully developed language (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#language), and they easily conquered Earth while driving all of Earth’s easy meat (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#australianmegafauna) and competing humans (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#climateneanderthal) to extinction. Humanity’s population increased by a factor of a thousand during the Second Epoch.
The Third Epoch had domestic plants (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#kebaran) and animals (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#goat) and sedentary populations, which usually led to civilization. All agrarian societies were similar (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#up3), in ways that were radically different from hunter-gatherer societies. Population densities went up by a factor of hundreds. When the Spanish mercenaries stumbled into Mesoamerican civilizations (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#aztec), they were very familiar to them, with crops, peasants, soldiers, professionals, cities, and elites, accompanied by organized religion and monumental architecture. They quickly figured it out and conquered the Western Hemisphere (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#first) in the human journey’s greatest demographic catastrophe (http://ahealedplanet.net/columbus.htm#genocide).
Anthropologists often study pristine instances of Epochal Events, to understand what drove them. People became behaviorally modern in Africa, which happened only once. Domestication happened in only two places pristinely, with certainty, civilizations arose pristinely in only four places (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#pristine1), and industrialization happened pristinely only once (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#coaluse). Because behavioral modernity and industrialization happened pristinely only once, there is nothing to compare them to, but domestication and the advent of civilization pristinely happened more than once. They were all basically similar, with the differences being minor. They were all similar because of something like evolutionary convergence (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#convergent), as independent solutions were developed for the same problems.
Human social organization between the Second and Third Epochs was radically different. Each Epoch began with a Golden Age (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#goldenages) of exploiting a new energy source, and the benefits were so obvious that the New Epochs spread like wildfire, at least while the new energy sources could sustain them (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#collapse). Once fire was controlled, no human society ever lost it. Once agriculture was invented (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#domestication), no societies willingly went back to hunting and gathering. They couldn’t, unless they had a 99+% die off in their populations. Similarly, no industrial nation is going to willingly give up industrialization and have everybody move back to farms. That will only happen if the energy that sustained industrialization runs out, and again, there will have to be a huge die-off of humanity in order to deindustrialize. Many scholars and pundits think that a 90+% die off of humanity will have to happen (http://ahealedplanet.net/hooked.htm#austerity) when fossil fuels run out (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#peakoil).
The first pristine instance of civilization is also the most studied, in what became Sumer (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#sumer). Just last night, I was reading one of my Sumer books, to prepare for this post. Sumer became the first literate civilization (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#writing), and the writings that have been discovered were almost entirely elite accounting and propaganda. Portions of The Epic of Gilgamesh (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gilgamesh) were reproduced in the Old Testament, which itself is largely a collection of political fairy tales (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#tales) that some modern peoples still think is the literal truth, just as some fringe scholars take Sumerian writings literally and argue for an inhabited planet that orbits Earth (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nibiru_cataclysm#Zecharia_Sitchin_and_Sumer) every few thousand years.
The first civilization soon gave rise to the first empire, and while killing one’s neighbors on sight (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/96-Human-sociality-and-free-energy?p=932&viewfull=1#post932) characterized the late Second Epoch, the early Third Epoch, as nation-states began warring as the easy energy ran out (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#earlycivilizations), would have been brutal almost beyond imagining for today’s Fourth Epoch humans. The first written laws come from those Sumerian times, and they are notable for their barbarity (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#akkadian) and commerce (much of it regulating slave treatment and marriage), as the earliest laws were largely enforced by executions or fines (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Code_of_Ur-Nammu). A later law (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Code_of_Hammurabi) is the one that people are more familiar with, and where “eye for an eye” came from. Social organization in early civilization was nothing to marvel over. In the human journey’s greatest empire (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#cleopatra), its most popular entertainment was watching people being forced to murder each other (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gladiators).
One common misconception of the Domestication Revolution is that humans immediately became smaller and sicklier with domestication. The initial events were wildly successful and people were healthier and more prosperous than ever, which is why those practices spread so dramatically (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#maledna) during that relatively brief period of Neolithic bliss. Populations exploded during the early days of the Domestication Revolution, with the world population increasing from 5 million people 10,000 years ago to nearly 200 million when Jesus was alive, to hit one billion around 1800 CE, when industrialization was just beginning. That population explosion could have only happened because of agriculture. The history of the Fertile Crescent is one of early horticulture powering settlements, and deforestation and soil degradation leading to abandonment and migration (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#climatechange3), to start over, and more intensive methods were invented, such as plow agriculture (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#plow). People eventually did become smaller and sicklier than their hunter-gatherer ancestors, but only after the easy energy ran out and there were a hundred times as many people. They could not go back, similar to how complex life could never go back and start over after the Cambrian Explosion (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#foundation). I believe that every civilization had legends of when times were blissful, with the Garden of Eden tale being merely one of them, and they may have been dimly recalling the Super-predator and Neolithic expansions, with their attendant brief Golden Ages, until the easy energy of the new methods of extraction ran out. I have witnessed it happen in my lifetime, when the Golden Age of American Capitalism (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#postwar) ended when Peak Oil happened (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#hubbert). I was born and raised in the Golden Age of Industrialization, and those days are long gone.
Social organization changed radically with the Epochs, and much more of that is coming, including some very likely changes in the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#cognitive).

Hi:
So, what all did the local, stable, and relatively abundant energy supply of plant domestication make possible? Briefly, the horticultural phase led to:
Energy surpluses that allowed for relatively permanent settlements and homes;
Societies larger than Dunbar’s number (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dunbar%27s_number);
Possessions in excess of what a person could carry;
A change from patrilocal to matrilocal societies (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#patrilineal1), which made them immensely more peaceful;
Specialized skills;
Political uses of the surplus energy;
Forced servitude (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#slaverybeginning);
Usually, the villages had to relocate after exhausting the local resources of fertile soils and firewood.
When peaceful villages rose to become civilizations (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page7?p=873&viewfull=1#post873), it led to:
Professions (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#professions);
Large-scale agriculture in a city-controlled hinterland;
Societies that were no longer primarily organized along kin lines, but along professional lines;
Pronounced technological innovation and standardized craft production;
Elites (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#elitesappear);
Slavery as an institution;
Urban features and institutions, including city walls, temples, palaces, monuments, aqueducts, fountains, sewers, markets, and social event venues;
Replacement of hunter-gatherer religions (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#dancing1) with urban ones, deification of elites (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#divinity);
Metallurgy (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#bronze);
Literacy (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#writing) and mathematics;
Decline in women’s status (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#womenstatus1).
As polities rose and competed over the increasingly scarce resources of agrarian civilizations, namely arable land and forests, these dynamics arose:
Degradation of the hinterland, with depleted soils and forests (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#earlycivilizations), and a reduced energy surplus;
Ideologies that elevated each polity over its neighbors;
Mass warfare (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#warfare);
Famine (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#salination1);
Epidemic disease (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#sparta);
Emigration;
Collapse (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#collapse).
While there were variations of those dynamics, they really were minor and generally dependent on the material realities that those societies faced. Agrarian civilizations had far more in common than differences (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#up3). Aboriginal Australians remained at the hunter-gatherer political economy for more than 40,000 years, primarily because they could not drive the fleet-footed kangaroo to extinction (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/96-Human-sociality-and-free-energy?p=932&viewfull=1#post932). The New Guinean Highlands never developed cities, and Jared Diamond (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jared_Diamond) has theorized that it was because of the nature of their crops, which did not provide the kind of energy surplus and protein that could lead to civilization. Some civilizations relied more on animal domestication (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#goat) than others, which was largely dependent on the candidates for domestication (primarily large herd animals in which humans replaced the social dominants).
All humans are behaviorally modern (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#leap), and our differences are all trifling, from relict populations (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/96-Human-sociality-and-free-energy?p=934&viewfull=1#post934) to industrialized humans, and the reasons for one society getting “stuck” at its level of “development” likely had nothing to do with innate human capacities. The social changes were always dependent on economic ones, which, as always, rested on the level of energy surplus (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#energysurplus). Societies with high energy surpluses could readily address their problems, while those with thin and declining ones became increasingly unable to solve them.
That summary above applies, to one degree or another, to all of humanity’s pristine civilizations (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#pristine1), and all early civilizations eventually collapsed, leaving behind the ruins of monumental architecture, whether they were hewn stones or the eroded remnants of earthen “mounds” and ziggurats. The Fertile Crescent has seen rising and falling civilizations for several thousand years, and much of it is a desert today. The first city (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#sumer), established on the shore near the Persian Gulf, is today buried under silt more than a hundred miles inland. All of Sumer’s cities met that fate, as did many cities in the Fertile Crescent and along the Mediterranean’s periphery (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#woodconserve1).

Hi:
No civilizations have ever been sustainable, as their energy practices never were. Civilization may ultimately prove ephemeral. Some dynamics of collapse (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#collapse) are worth noting. Quite often, people in the hinterland could see quite plainly that the practices were unsustainable, such as plowing (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#plow), deforestation (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#treesenergy), overgrazing, irrigation, and the like, but the demands of urban populations, directed by their elites, overruled the farmers and others in the hinterlands who clearly saw the trends and tried to ameliorate them. Conservation efforts were always too little and too late (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#conservation). Writings have survived in which the damage was all too clear to astute observers (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#athenshinterland), some of whom had a historical sense of the damage, such as when Romans marveled when told that the thick forests that only existed in Germany at the time once existed close to Rome (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#forestsurprise). But they were voices in the wilderness, and short-term energy acquisition practices took precedence over any long-term view of sustainability.
All early civilizations went on a one-way road to collapse, as they burned through their energy supplies while their EROI (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#eroi1) declined, as well as the surplus energy (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#discretionary) produced. Droughts were often the death knell, but the energy practices were unsustainable to begin with, riding a thin energy surplus that was always subject to disruption, and weather changes often provided the shock that led to collapse. In a word, those civilizations were not resilient (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#resilience) enough to withstand the vagaries of climate, and some of the effects were human-caused. In recent historical times (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#aztec1), it was recorded how intruding Europeans quickly turned fertile lands into semi-deserts. The same undoubtedly happened with early civilizations. The earliest permanent settlements were usually abandoned after some centuries or millennia (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#catalhoyuk), and local deforestation and the resulting aridity surely contributed.
Human sociality has a lot to do with those short-sighted stampedes to oblivion. Humans are herd animals and have always been easily stampeded over the cliff by the social managers. I have watched people embrace certain death (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#doom) rather than question their social conditioning. It was not until many years after watching those reactions, stupefied, that people would act that way, choosing certain doom over potential salvation, that I began to understand the roots of such behaviors, and they are deeply entwined in biology and the human journey.
But for all of those unsustainable rides to oblivion, the increasing energy surplus of the Epochs (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochaltable) led to more humane behaviors. While Fourth Epoch humans often can scarcely believe the barbarities of Third Epoch societies, at least they did not kill their neighbors on sight and steal their women (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/96-Human-sociality-and-free-energy?p=932&viewfull=1#post932). In the Fourth Epoch, chattel slavery (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#southseas) gave way to wage slavery, which is more genteel. The USA is about the only Fourth Epoch nation that still has a death penalty, as we are easily the most inhumane nation on Earth (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#record), although the egocentric fiction is that the USA is the light of the world. All empires have always harbored such delusions, but the fiction in the USA is that we are not even an empire, although it is being increasingly admitted in moments of candor (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#rove).

Hi:
Over the past couple of days, I have been reading Steven Greer’s latest book, Unacknowledged (https://www.amazon.com/Unacknowledged-Expose-Worlds-Greatest-Secret/dp/1943957045/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1496673683&sr=1-1), which is a companion to the movie of the same name, which I have not seen, but probably will someday. Where to start? We obviously have a great deal in common (more than I may ever be able to publicly disclose), and my effort has been compared to his regularly, but I am doing something different (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir).
I guess that I could start at the beginning. In this book and Greer’s previous one (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brian_O%27Leary#The_Frontiers_of_Science), he used Brian O to introduce it. Brian’s intro to Unacknowledged was written in 2005, and as I looked at Brian’s foreword to Greer’s Hidden Truth, Forbidden Knowledge, I see that it is the same introduction, which is one of the problems with Greer’s latest, as it largely recycles information that Greer’s readers have seen before. As such, his book breaks little new ground. It is largely a refashioning of previous testimony and evidence from his Disclosure Project days. However, given the importance of the subject matter – the most important on Earth today – I readily forgive the derivative nature of his latest.
To briefly summarize the gist of Unacknowledged, it is about the ET presence and the repression of that information, in what is history’s greatest cover-up (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#big). It is conjoined with the free energy cover-up. If one comes out, the other will not be far behind, which is what the global elite (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc) fear the most.
This is going to take more than one post to cover. For starters, Greer’s work presents the most credible body of UFO/ET related work that I know of. Ed Mitchell (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page3?p=416&viewfull=1#post416) co-chaired those 1997 secret Congressional hearings, and one interesting aspect of Unacknowledged was that Greer alleged that while the Apollo Moon landings indeed occurred, Apollo 11’s flag-planting was filmed on Earth, in order to have something to show Earth’s masses if ETs came and spoiled the party. I just re-watched that flag-planting sequence in my Apollo 11 materials (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#apollo) here at home, and I never found the “waving in the breeze (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#flag)” allegations of faked footage to be persuasive, but Greer’s allegation was one more piece of evidence for why Brian made the public statements that he did (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianbio.htm#statement). That said, the Apollo 11 footage was of such poor quality that allegations of it all happening on a sound stage in New York are not easily dismissed.
One of the more interesting pieces of testimony is Daniel Sheehan’s, who is one of the most famous public interest attorneys in the USA (http://www.danielpsheehan.com/about/biography). I was a spectator and supporter (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#christic) when his Christic Institute was wiped out by a CIA-asset judge. Sheehan was drawn into the UFO/ET situation by Jimmy Carter’s attempts to declassify the issue (http://ahealedplanet.net/journey.htm#presidents), after then-head of the CIA, George Bush the First, rebuffed Carter’s attempts to obtain the CIA’s documents on the issue. Sheehan was Chief Counsel for the Jesuit Order in the USA when he was contacted by an American official who asked for his help with Carter’s declassification effort. Sheehan asked for access to the Vatican’s archives on UFOs and ETs, and was rebuffed twice. The Vatican’s response was not that it did not have such archives, but that the Jesuit Order in the USA (and the American president) was not entitled to see them.
Sheehan’s bizarre journey on this issue saw him help the JPL (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jet_Propulsion_Laboratory) get its SETI (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Search_for_extraterrestrial_intelligence) budget approved, and the JPL then invited him to speak on the theological implications of the search for extraterrestrial intelligence. To prepare for his talk, he contacted that government official who asked for the Jesuit Order’s help, asked to see the classified parts of Project Bluebook, and was granted an hour with the evidence in the basement of a new and empty Library of Congress building (http://presidentialufo.com/jimmy-carter/98-the-marcia-smith-story-the-presidents-ufo-study). Sheehan could not take anything in with him, but kind of smuggled in a legal pad. When faced with nearly twenty boxes of material, he quickly decided to search for photographs and soon found some, but he had seen them before. Then he found some microfiche canisters and a reader, and quickly hand-cranked through the first reel, but it was just documents, and the next was more documents, and as he feverishly scanned through the microfiche, he hit pay dirt. It was a series of photographs of a crashed UFO being examined. It was a snowy scene, and the craft had created a furrow in the ground that ended with its being half-buried in an embankment.
Sheehan could see markings like hieroglyphics on the craft, and one picture was a close-up of them. The guards at the room’s entrance were not looking at him, and Sheehan projected the hieroglyphic image onto the cardboard backing of his legal pad, traced the hieroglyphs, and successfully smuggled the tracing out. Sheehan has given interviews on the subject (http://www.ufoevidence.org/documents/doc836.htm) before, but I think that I read it for the first time in Unacknowledged. I really don’t follow the ET/UFO issue (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ufo2) that closely anymore, just like I really don’t keep up on the free energy field these days, and really don’t want to have much to do with it, but if you have not read any of Greer’s Disclosure Project work before, Unacknowledged is not a bad place to start.
Testimonies like that make up the bulk of Unacknowledged, with most of it coming from high-ranking military officials and politicians. Brian’s life was shortened (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#attack), courtesy of the American military, when he snooped into the UFO issue, and Brian was afraid for the rest of his life about going public with his brush with death, fearing that the military would then “finish the job.” Only a few months before he died, Brian gave an interview and went into detail of that event, naming names, and then thought better of it and had that part of his interview retracted, which has never been published and likely never will. But it is easy to understand why Brian was one of the staunchest supporters of Greer’s Disclosure Project efforts.
Much more to write on this subject, and in the coming weeks, I will make more posts on Greer’s latest effort.

Been reading Frans De Waal "Chimpanzee Politics", "The Ape and the Sushi master". Just finished "Our Inner Ape" beautifully written, it has given me my best insights into human behavior. One small complaint is his euro-centrisim (which is minor).
Still to read "The Bonobo and the Athesist", "Are we smart enough to know how smart animals are"

Hi Krishna:
Well, de Waal is a white guy. :)
Mr. de Waal is refreshingly not anthropocentric in his writings. In his Are We Smart Enough to Know How Smart Animals Are?, he really takes on the anthropocentric conceits that abound in science, in which humanity’s “wonderful” qualities are extolled. You are not going to find many Western scientists that will echo the perspective of a Chomsky or Herman, for instance. I am not sure that I ever saw a physical scientist or biologist contribute an article to Z Magazine, for instance.

Apart from Chomsky et all Frans de wall is the author with the least euro centrisim among all the authors that I have read. His sensitivity to animal intelligence and behavior is amazing, and that flows into has treatment of other human cultures. He ranks very high on my list of authors I would recommend.
Wade,
Curious. Who are the non-European (non-white) authors that you liked best? Any area of expertise is ok.

Hi Krishna:
Great question. I just walked through my library, looking for such an author. Non-white authors are few and far between in my library. I really had to think about that one. Why are there so few? The answer is wide-ranging. For scientific works, much of the time, I don’t see pictures of the authors, but they almost all have white-seeming names. Alan de Queiroz (http://www.huffingtonpost.com/author/alan-de-queiroz) is an exception, but one of the few. You read his book (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1134160&viewfull=1#post1134160), too. I could say Ward Churchill (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1134160&viewfull=1#post1134160), but most people would not consider him very Indian (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ward_Churchill), although he was “enrolled” in his tribe when he was ten. I interacted with Vine Deloria once and have several of his books, but I read and studied Churchill far more. Deloria was no scientist (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#deloria), and not really much of a scholar. I have Indigenous Archaeology (https://www.amazon.com/Indigenous-Archaeology-American-Scientific-Archaeologies/dp/0742503291), by a man with a very white-seeming name of Joe Watkins, but he is an American Indian. I was charmed in the book’s beginning when he said that he initially thought of studying European archeology, so that he could dig up white people’s ancestors. :)
There are several reasons for the paucity of non-white authors in my library. One is that if it is not in English, I can’t read it, and English is not only my native tongue, but the official language of my continent (so much so that nearly all white Americans are mono-language people), and it is the linqua franca of commerce and science, which reflects British/American imperial supremacy.
We could get into the racist aspects of this situation, and they surely contribute greatly, but I think that an energy surplus perspective is also very helpful. England conquered so much territory because it industrialized (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#coaluse), and the North American colonies comprised a beachhead on the richest unplundered continent on Earth, which the USA took full advantage of (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#steal1). The control of fire (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#fire1) was a great, watershed event in the human journey, and as Richard Wrangham noted, cooked food (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#cooking) freed up time otherwise spent chewing. Each Epoch of the human journey (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochaltable) created more surplus energy and provided people with time to pursue activities not associated with immediate survival. The surviving natives of Europe’s conquered lands have been pushed to the brink of survival, so not many scholars and scientists have yet emerged from them.
I could point to works such as Autobiography of a Yogi (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autobiography_of_a_Yogi) or Makes me Wanna Holler (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Makes_Me_Wanna_Holler), but they are addressing white audiences. If I think of non-whites writing to non-whites, do I have anything in my library like that? Other than works such as the Upanishads (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Upanishads), I am not sure if I have any. But this is also an economic situation. In Joe Bageant’s (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joe_Bageant) books, written soon before he died, about his people, the agrarian poor of Appalachia (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#englishinvasion), AKA rednecks, hillbillies, etc., he noted that the last people who would read his books were his people, the subjects of his books, as they never read. That reflects their socio-economic strata as near-peasants. Joe was one of the lucky ones who grew up in the post-war boom (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#postwar) and escaped the farm, much like Dennis did (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis?p=574&viewfull=1#post574). Dennis is a TV addict, typical of our generation. I gave it up when I was 18 (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/70-Distinguishing-the-wheat-from-the-chaff-and-my-life-s-journey?p=102&viewfull=1#post102), but Dennis never will. He will never read my big essay, nor will hardly anybody close to me.
Of the many unread books in my library (so many books, so little time!) is Ramachandra Guha’s Environmentalism: A Global History (https://www.amazon.com/Environmentalism-Global-History-Ramachandra-Guha/dp/0321011694). I’ll likely get to it one day, but I have read many works like it. We’ll see. To follow this train of thinking, how many works by women do I have? Far fewer than men. I am currently reading Robin Hobb’s (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1152444&viewfull=1#post1152444) latest, but on the scientific and scholarly front, I am going to estimate that only 10% or so have been women, and it is likely far less than that. You could call my library the White Male Library, but I think that would apply to any Western library of science and scholarship. When I happen upon a non-white-male scholar or scientist, they can be treated as celebrities because they are so rare, such as Lisa Randall (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lisa_Randall) or Neil deGrasse Tyson (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neil_deGrasse_Tyson), but I was appalled at how sloppy Randall’s latest book was (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1024406&viewfull=1#post1024406), and her style of writing to a lay audience leaves a lot to be desired, and deGrasse Tyson is somewhat of an ass, with his Isaac Newton tweet every Christmas Day. My comments there could be considered White Male Criticism, looking hard to find something wrong with their work, but there are some great scholarly and scientific works by women, such as Elinor Melville’s A Plague of Sheep (https://www.amazon.com/Plague-Sheep-Environmental-Consequences-Environment/dp/052157448X). Susan Perry (http://www.anthro.ucla.edu/faculty/susan-perry) leads on capuchin studies, and Jane Goodall (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jane_Goodall) is the pioneer of chimp studies. My wife has a doctorate, so does her sister, and my wife’s niece is studying biology at the university today. The walls are slowly crumbling.
I was raised in a racist and bigoted household (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#racism), typical of my generation, and I will always be getting over it. In the USA, all non-white-heterosexual-males are called “minorities,” which reflects our history of white male supremacy. That has certainly been eroding as the Fourth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal4) progresses, but, for instance, if my little choir effort (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir) is all white males, it is going to be far less than it could be, and do we really want the world saved by white men? Well, on one hand, it would be poetic and karmic for some of them to, as it is almost all white males who have taken us to the edge of the abyss (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#spaceshipearth). But for my effort to have a chance, I need women to step up, bring scientific literacy and critical thinking to the issues, lay aside their cheerleader and groupie orientation to efforts like mine, and the men need to lay aside all of that alpha male stuff. I doubt that I will be inviting any alpha male, heroic types (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#messiah1) into my effort.
Big topic.

Hi:
I have been meaning to make this post for a little while. There have been papers (https://drinkingwateradvisor.com/2013/01/10/barbier-et-al-2011-molecular-mechanisms-of-fluoride-toxicity/) in recent years (https://www.hindawi.com/journals/isrn/2012/403835/) about the toxic effects of the fluorine ion, and how it induces programmed cell death. When I read that, it took me back to the first fluoride book that I ever read, titled Fluoride and the Aging Factor (https://www.amazon.com/Fluoride-Aging-Factor-Recognize-Devastating/dp/0913571032). When I make my essay update, Nick Lane’s latest book (https://www.amazon.com/Vital-Question-Evolution-Origins-Complex/dp/0393352978/ref=la_B001IXSEJ2_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1495546945&sr=1-1) will be prominent. It also deals with programmed cell death and aging. Lane’s hypothesis (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1072217&viewfull=1#post1072217) is that when free radical production reaches a certain threshold, it induces programmed cell death. Those cells that are highly specialized and can’t easily reproduce, such as muscle and nerve cells, die off from programmed cell death and fewer such cells are left to perform the body’s tasks, which leads to stress on the remaining ones and eventually leads to organism failure, also known as death. The cells that easily reproduce, however, can go the other way with programmed cell death and overproduce, and then the organism gets cancer and other diseases, also leading to death.
The fluorine ion is like sand in the gears of many cellular processes, and when a cell’s processes are damaged enough, programmed cell death occurs. So, purposely introducing a highly toxic industrial waste (http://ahealedplanet.net/fluoride.htm#compulsory) into the water supply and calling it medicine is not only insane, but the alleged health benefits likely don’t exist at all. At best, fluoridation is an incredibly blunt instrument that does far more damage than any good, if any good at all.
This is a prelude to discussing a scientific paper (http://www.ageofautism.com/2017/05/pilot-comparative-study-on-the-health-of-vaccinated-and-unvaccinated-6-12-year-old-us-children.html) recently published on the health effects of vaccination, on two populations of home-schooled children: those who were vaccinated and those who weren’t. I guess to aspire to scientific credibility, it began with the dubious statement of how many lives have been saved by vaccination, but let’s assume for a moment that it is true (and as you know, I have my doubts (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/80-Vaccination?p=184&viewfull=1#post184)). The paper then goes on to show the stark differences in health conditions between the two populations. Unvaccinated children were several times more likely to get chicken pox, rubella or pertussis (harmless childhood diseases that appear to be key immune system development events), but vaccinated children were several times more likely to get pneumonia, inner ear infections, and autism spectrum disorders, and they were 20-30 times more likely to have allergies.
Those findings align with what I have read about vaccinations for many years. Vaccinations are a violent insult to the body (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#masculine), which consequently damages the immune system, leading to immune system failures, which often manifest as chronic conditions such as infections, allergies, and neurological conditions, and later in life, diseases such as cancer. What an incredibly blunt instrument that likely does far more harm than good. But, as with fluoridation, it is a financial windfall for various vested interests. I have even seen vaccination named as part of a “vertical integration” strategy, as it ensures unhealthy children who will then use medical racket services for their entire lives. The current orthodox paradigms for understanding disease are likely woefully deficient. As Seth (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#seth) once said, modern “medicine” causes as much disease as it “cures.”

Hi:
I am going to try to report on Greer’s latest book in relatively the same order as it is presented. I don’t know if he finally got over it, and it is understandable if he has not, but I know one of his problems. When Greer has interacted with the high and mighty, the billionaires, the Vatican, the UN, Pentagon, Capitol Hill, and the like, he never received a reaction of denial, scoffing, and the like, but grave acknowledgement. It is the masses, “skeptics (http://ahealedplanet.net/dennis.htm#friends),” and rival UFO-ologists who scoff, debunk, disparage, etc., and Greer used to get into “credibility” mode with people, trying to establish his bona fides, and when he has done it with people who do not need him to do that, it can be wearying. People have come from across the world to his classes and then left in the middle of them because he could not get out of “credibility mode” and get down to the issues at hand.
I have often been there, and it does not feel good to be challenged by people who are mired in conventionality and have zero experience playing at the high levels, who are really looking for a reason to go back to sleep, not wake up, and my experiences represent a threat to their sense of reality, and they react accordingly. I stopped trying with those people long ago, and only seek the awake (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=309&viewfull=1#post309) and awakening, not the sleeping, and they are few and far between (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialcircle).
So, this post will be one for Greer’s “credibility.” He gained credibility with me when he related experiences that were close to my own, and when his Disclosure Project witnesses began describing events that also happened to me and my little circle. Brian O (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm) is far from the only person whom we have in common.
Greer’s book takes a chronological approach to the issue, going back to cave art that seems to depict ET craft, and then getting to when the whole issue really began to take off after the USA gratuitously nuked Japan (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm#dropping), when our galactic neighbors realized that the cave men reached new levels of violence that were planet-threatening (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#mars) at minimum.
The early postwar years, particularly the Eisenhower years, were seminal in how the issue has been dealt with. The issue quickly morphed from a “national security,” Cold War situation to a wholly unaccountable global cabal that keeps the ET and related technology situation under wraps for issues of wealth and power, keeping humanity enslaved to their evil agenda. The dark path is dark indeed (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#serving). By the time that JFK became president, the entire issue had been privatized and levels of national security were devised that left the sitting president completely out of the loop (http://ahealedplanet.net/journey.htm#presidents). Doug Caddy’s testimony for why JFK was murdered (http://educationforum.ipbhost.com/index.php?/topic/20494-bill-decker-and-john-tower/&do=findComment&comment=321167) rings very true.
Most of Greer’s Unacknowledged book is comprised of the testimonies of high-ranking military officials, politicians, astronauts, and the like. Greer names names, of many of the organizations involved with this global cabal (http://ahealedplanet.net/journey.htm#cabal), including some individuals. He lists military bases where much of the skullduggery happens, but also admits that most of the names involved at the highest levels are unknown to him. You have never heard of most of the people who really run the world.
Greer named the Mormon financial empire as the most influential player more than a decade ago, and when I heard that, it was most curious, as Mormons were deeply involved in wiping us out in both Seattle and Ventura (http://ahealedplanet.net/journey.htm#mormon).
Greer got a little into the untimely deaths in his circle, and I was aware of some of it as it was happening (http://ahealedplanet.net/journey.htm#adamiak), and it was no great surprise when it did. The Big Boys (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#gc) don’t shrink from murder, and they have a very creative bag of tricks (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#tactics) to make it look like anything but murder, especially ones that they were involved with. Greer also wrote about the $100 billion in quiet money (http://ahealedplanet.net/hooked.htm#payoff) that was given out by a generation ago, and it would not surprise me if the number has more than doubled since then.
Greer also gives a brief free energy lesson (zero-point energy (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#zpf1) is largely interdimensional), and the era of free energy (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ideal) and its organized suppression (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#levels1) generally began with Tesla (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#tesla1) and lasts to this day. When Greer mentioned some free energy inventors and their fates, it was a subject that I know all too well (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=601&viewfull=1#post601). He mentioned Stan Meyer (http://ahealedplanet.net/risk.htm#meyer), who suddenly died while meeting some military officials, and Stan had previously been offered a billion dollars to go away. Dennis warned Stan that the military was not his friend, but Stan did not heed Dennis’s warning. Greer provided the testimony of a World War II hero who developed high-MPG technology (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#carb1) and was completely wiped out with cloak-and-dagger games. Literally hundreds, and maybe even thousands, of inventors could tell similar tales of their high-MPG technologies, and Dennis is just the latest in a long line of them (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page13?p=888&viewfull=1#post888). What I found “interesting” was that the Federal Trade Commission was involved with wiping out that inventor in Greer’s book, and they also led the attack on Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/paths.htm#ftc), soon after his phone call from David Rockefeller (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page13?p=888&viewfull=1#post888). It did not even matter that the sitting U.S. president’s energy advisor was one of Dennis’s fans (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=694872&viewfull=1#post694872). Greer named other free energy inventors, some of whom are also in my circle. The stories are all too real.
These issues blow most people’s minds, as they react with denial (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level1) and fear (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level5), or have a tabloid fascination with them or go paranoid. I have watched people lose their minds by merely brushing up against this milieu. Again, I don’t seek to engage such people, but Greer is going after the masses (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level10), and I doubt that it will work, but more on that later.
Best,
Wade

Hi:
I’ll give some examples of the many overlaps in Greer’s work and my journey. Greer has written many times that Apollo 11 encountered ETs on the Moon, and he did in Unacknowledged. Long before Greer began his Disclosure Project, Brian left Princeton (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#oneill) for SAIC (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#saic) after his mystical awakening (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#remote) and got Buzz Aldrin a job (http://educationforum.ipbhost.com/index.php?/topic/22644-brian-oleary-and-the-apollo-moon-landings-controversy/), who once had a job selling cars, as he was so rudderless after Apollo 11. Brian shared an office with Buzz at SAIC, and if you shared an office with Buzz, do you think that you might have asked him what it was like on the Moon? :) I could have walked to their office from where I lived at the time (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=406928&viewfull=1#post406928). Brian’s and my big adventures had yet to begin.
Ed Mitchell (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page3?p=416&viewfull=1#post416) was very prominent in the Disclosure Project, as Brian was, and do you think that Brian might have asked Ed what it was like on the Moon? Buzz and Ed both needed therapy after returning from the Moon, and Brian said that odd answers from Moon-walking astronauts led him to suspect that not all was as it seemed regarding the Moon landings. Brian was open to the idea that the Moon landings had been faked, but he thought that the probability was very low. He thought it more likely that some of the footage may have been faked, but he still regarded that as a low probability. For the record, I never saw (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#apollo) any Apollo footage that looked like it had been faked. Brian regretted those statements (http://educationforum.ipbhost.com/index.php?/topic/22644-brian-oleary-and-the-apollo-moon-landings-controversy/&do=findComment&comment=325315) for the rest of his life, as it led to a firestorm of controversy that overwhelmed everything else about him.
In Unacknowledged, Greer called SAIC one of the crown jewels of the global cabal (http://ahealedplanet.net/journey.htm#cabal), and California aerospace firms are where many of those unacknowledged special access programs reside. In many ways, California is the heart of darkness. I should know (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#mr). When Brian was nearly killed by the USA’s military as he snooped into the UFO issue, the murder attempt (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#attack) happened in California. The last place where Brian lived in the USA was in California, close to my wife’s parents. Brian fled to South America after Eugene Mallove was murdered (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#portland), and I did not blame him at all. I funded the NEM conference where Greer spoke, when I first heard about the $100 billion in quiet money (http://ahealedplanet.net/hooked.htm#payoff), and it made perfect sense to me.
A famous alleged event in UFO circles was Eisenhower’s meeting with ETs at what became Edwards Air Force Base, in 1954. Greer wrote about that event, too, in Unacknowledged. Several years ago, I heard from a connected pal that Jackie Gleason was close friends with Ike, and he also attended the ET “open house.” Jackie knew how to keep his mouth shut. When I heard that, I connected an event from a generation earlier, when Gleason watched our free energy tapes (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page4?p=648&viewfull=1#post648). In fact, it was 30 years ago this month when I heard that Gleason was watching our tapes, the month before he died and the month after our first friendly buyout offer (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page3?p=623&viewfull=1#post623), a year before the CIA added a couple of zeroes (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#offer) before we got the boom lowered on us (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#jail). Early 1987 was also when SAIC sacked Brian, mainly because he refused to work on Reagan’s Star Wars, and that was the last job for the Establishment that Brian had.
But the most spectacular celebrity connection that I have with the Disclosure Project is Marilyn Monroe’s death. Monroe’s close friends knew that she did not commit suicide, and Burl Ives told Greer that the alleged Monroe/Kilgallen conversation, recorded the day before Monroe died of “suicide,” finally confirmed to Monroe’s friends why she died. Kilgallen was deeply involved in the JFK assassination aftermath (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dorothy_Kilgallen#Kilgallen_and_the_Kennedy_assassination) and came to an untimely and suspicious end herself. My connection to it is that Gary Wean (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page5?p=684&viewfull=1#post684) also knew that Monroe did not commit suicide, but from a slightly different angle. Monroe met JFK as part of an organized crime influence peddling scheme with the White House (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#monroe), and Gary was there when they met, as he surveilled the Malibu beach party at Peter Lawford’s home. Monroe was in way over her head in the JFK milieu, and she was silenced by the spooks. I also have a Rat Pack connection (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=912176&viewfull=1#post912176), and the most “interesting” aspects I can’t discuss publicly, but it connects straight to the UFO milieu. There are many Hollywood/Vegas connections to that issue, and they run through my life.
In summary, I have free energy, mystical (http://ahealedplanet.net/journey.htm#mystical), NASA (http://ahealedplanet.net/paths.htm#oleary), astronaut, JFK (http://educationforum.ipbhost.com/index.php?/topic/20494-bill-decker-and-john-tower/&do=findComment&comment=321167), Hollywood, UFO-watching (http://ahealedplanet.net/ufo.htm), Vegas, and spook connections to the Disclosure Project, and the pieces all fit together. Some pieces don’t fit as smoothly as others do, but they form a mosaic that Greer’s work fits neatly into. Some of Greer’s data points were new to me, but many more were only confirmatory of what I already knew, through my own experiences and those in my little circle. I take what Greer reports very seriously, but I am also trying something different (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir).
Best,

Hi:
One aspect of Greer’s work and UFO lore in general is the secret and underground bases, where captured UFOs and ETs are allegedly kept, where the exotic technology supposedly resides, and where the security is so high that few are foolhardy enough or live long enough to tell to the tale of what those places are like. This is a highly problematic area that intersects with another aspect of this milieu: disinformation.
For anybody who has followed this milieu for long, there is obviously a great deal of disinformation being purveyed by various parties for various agendas. Ed Mitchell (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page3?p=416&viewfull=1#post416) said that the disinformation is part of the cover-up. Many so-called insiders and whistleblowers are really on special assignment to appear as them, but they are not telling the truth. In intelligence circles, there is a wide spectrum of tactics (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CIA_influence_on_public_opinion) to deceive the public. William Colby (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Colby) headed the CIA when it was drug through the mud at the Church Committee (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Church_Committee) hearings (which John Tower (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#tower) was on). Ralph McGehee (http://ahealedplanet.net/mcgehee.htm) worked for Colby (http://ahealedplanet.net/mcgehee.htm#colby), and when Ralph saw Colby testify under oath, Colby uttered a stream of lies. Ralph knew that they were lies, and Ralph was highly impressed that Colby could lie that convincingly. Ralph never saw a CIA official tell the truth in public venues. Instead, it was a steady stream of lies. As his life’s end, James Jesus Angleton (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Jesus_Angleton), the legendary CIA mole hunter, admitted that lying and betraying people (http://educationforum.ipbhost.com/index.php?/topic/20494-bill-decker-and-john-tower/&page=3#comment-321167) was the path to the top at the CIA. There are plenty of forged documents in this milieu, too, by the “intelligence” community and free-lancers.
Not only are Big Lies being told as part of their jobs, but genuine, whistleblowing insiders in these areas cannot produce much documentation or other evidence to corroborate their stories, so anybody off the street can start telling tall tales of their “insider” information, and they are making it up, crafting it to appear like genuine stories, etc. They do it for various reasons, including making a living and drawing attention to themselves. Some have unwittingly been made into purveyors of disinformation, as they lapped up what they were fed. Winnowing the truth from the blizzard of lies on these subjects is not easy. Greer’s teams have developed protocols to sift the bogus from the genuine, and at that NEM (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#nem) conference, Greer admitted that in his hundreds of Disclosure Project witnesses, a few might be fakes, either purposefully or unwittingly. But it is likely only a few.
People have to develop a critical eye toward all evidence in these areas and accept nothing blindly, if they want to pursue the truth. The more that people can develop independent sources of information, the better. On the UFO issue, I took three different approaches (http://ahealedplanet.net/ufo.htm):
Seeing UFOs for myself (http://ahealedplanet.net/ufo.htm) (I visited James’s ranch again in 2015, and was not disappointed);
Being close to people with credibility who have experience in the field;
Examining the evidence for myself.
Most of the “inside” information that I have on the issue I did not seek out, but it just came with the territory of what I did. My friend was almost certainly given his exotic technology show (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#underground) at one of those underground facilities, and the people who gave the show almost certainly risked their lives to give it (and I purposely have not wanted to know all that much about that show, to protect people, including myself). When I heard it (and I have heard about that show more than once), I was not seeking information, but the person had a need to tell me about it. Greer had a much more modest show at an unground facility (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page13?p=909&viewfull=1#post909). The underground facilities are real, and I have little doubt about the descriptions of them that Greer provides.
Similarly, when Brian told me about his brush with death (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#attack), he just volunteered it in our note-trading sessions, in which he was more interested in my spook connections (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#cia) than he was in that exotic technology show. The ultra-elite plan to terraform Mars (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#mars) was also something that a pal told me, gratis, when one of our circle was approached to help them with it. Dwight Eisenhower’s great granddaughter was (http://www.collective-evolution.com/2017/02/10/president-dwight-d-eisenhowers-great-granddaughter-speaks-about-his-meeting-with-extraterrestrials/) also recruited for Mars colonization, and her story goes into time travel and other mind-boggling issues. It is very understandable if people consider all of that way too far out for them, but creation is a big and strange place, and I try to not let my beliefs and “reasonable” assumptions get in the way of learning. But people need to have their feet very firmly on the ground to begin exploring these issues. It is easy for ungrounded people to crash and burn, go insane, and the like, when they snoop into these issues.
Another key aspect of this issue is the so-called “skeptics” and debunkers. Most of what you see for public consumption in the UFO, ET, free energy, and related areas deserves to be debunked. I saw a recent estimate that more than 95% of free energy tinkerers who think that they came up with something really didn’t, primarily through ignorance and incompetence, not malice. It is far harder than it might seem to free energy newcomers. Similarly, the vast majority of UFO “sightings” are not really UFO sightings, but the standard debunker claims of seeing Venus, airplanes, satellites, and swamp gas ( :) ) actually do explain most such “sightings.” But there is no way that they explain all of them, and debunkers fail when they try to, through dishonesty, or incompetence, or naïve and rigid beliefs.
I began studying organized skepticism in the early 1990s (http://ahealedplanet.net/dennis.htm#friends), and gradually became appalled. Brian O’s erstwhile colleague Carl Sagan (http://ahealedplanet.net/dennis.htm#sagan) was a particularly glib debunker and kind of a fraud as a scientific popularizer. I still gave the “skeptics” the benefit of the doubt, however, until I met Mr. Skeptic (http://ahealedplanet.net/dennis.htm#philly). I now consider all “skeptics” to be criminals (http://ahealedplanet.net/dennis.htm#criminal) until they demonstrate otherwise. After I navigated the bureaucratic maze and got Brian’s NASA bio published (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog?p=284&viewfull=1#post284), a leading space debunker challenged Brian’s Martian credentials, which led to this section of my site (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianbio.htm#mars), as I thought that I might have a fight on my hands if that debunker led an effort to erase Brian’s Martian credentials at NASA, and he was in position to. His debunking exercise was truly idiotic (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/91-Scientific-literacy/page3?p=556&viewfull=1#post556), and he is arguably today’s leading space debunker.
Much of my journey has been like Diogenes’s quest for an honest man (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diogenes). I have had the great privilege of meeting and knowing some great ones (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#adventures), but they were few and far between. Personal integrity is indeed the world’s scarcest commodity (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page6?p=708&viewfull=1#post708), and is the number one reason, with a bullet, why we do not live in the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5) today. You could not have convinced me of that on the day that I met Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=601&viewfull=1#post601), but over the next three years, I had it beaten into my head in no uncertain terms, and I resisted that truth every step of the way.
For the next month, my posts will be pretty regular, as I will have some time. That biography project that I happily took on is going to interfere with my big essay update, but when you find out who it is, you will understand why I did it. But for now, it is off to a busy day.
Best,
Wade

Hi:
In his book Unacknowledged, Greer discussed the draconian security around the unacknowledged special access projects, the ET/UFO evidence, and the evil programs engaged in by the people in power. Even the slightest violation of the security protocols in those programs means a violent death. Thousands of “insiders” have been murdered for protocol violations. Also, so have many “outsiders” who stumbled into these areas.
Dennis, Brian, and I (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#adventures) never aspired to be insiders or even deal with them. The contacts with Godzilla’s minions always came via Godzilla’s initiative, not ours. Godzilla (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc) plays a subtle and sophisticated game, so much so that most that he messes with do not even realize that they have been messed with (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#bearden). Free energy aspirants’ lives suddenly fall apart, and it can look like a random series of events to them. They rarely suspect that something else is happening. Also, when some do suspect, they can go paranoid and lash out at everything around them, and they self-destruct while attacking their few true allies. This is not theoretical: I lived through and witnessed those situations more than once.
When we got the first friendly buyout offer in Boston (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page3?p=623&viewfull=1#post623), neither Dennis nor I thought that we had just received an entreaty from Godzilla. Those White Hat calls (http://ahealedplanet.net/camelot.htm#white) were strange, but we had no idea who made them, and even the idea of Godzilla was alien to us in those days. We did not even know that there was a free energy field, and neither of us had even heard of Tesla (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#tesla1) in those days.
I had already woken up enough when we hit Ventura (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#mr) that I thought that the odds of us being wiped out were pretty high, but there are several levels of organized suppression (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#levels1), as more local interests can wipe you out on their own initiative before Godzilla needs to roll out of bed. I had already seen enough in Seattle (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=601&viewfull=1#post601) and Boston (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=611&viewfull=1#post611), but the raid (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page4?p=660&viewfull=1#post660) was still a shock, and I really did not fully wake up to the evil until my fateful day on the witness stand (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page5?p=681&viewfull=1#post681). I may never be able to publicly tell about what all I lived through in those days, but the biggest surprise was not that Godzilla existed and that he had many people eagerly do his bidding, but all of the betrayals and attacks that came from our “allies” and my friends and relatives. When it got back to me that my own mother was campaigning against me (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=400492&viewfull=1#post400492), it no longer even hurt anymore. The enemy is us (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#attacks), and always has been.
What I saw in Seattle was only a gentle preview, as was that attack from a former girlfriend (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page3?p=622&viewfull=1#post622). By the time that the dust finally settled in Ventura as I was leaving my home town, to never return, I had long since learned my life’s primary lesson: personal integrity is the world’s scarcest commodity (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page6?p=708&viewfull=1#post708). The primary reason, with a bullet, why no free energy effort has worked is not because Godzilla is vigilant and actively mischievous, but because the efforts were never mounted with sufficient integrity. They were always being torn apart from the inside, and if Godzilla needed to intervene, it rarely needed to become overt or severe. All of those failed paths to free energy (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#approaches) are, to one degree or another, failures of integrity.
Godzilla could usually just sit back, get his popcorn, and watch nature take its course, with greedy inventors (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page6?p=709&viewfull=1#post709) and their “allies (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page6?p=710&viewfull=1#post710)” waiting to steal the effort or technology. The first dozen times I saw it, I was shocked (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#shocked), which is a normal reaction. When free energy aspirants announced that they were the Messiah (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#messiah) or Second Coming (http://ahealedplanet.net/conun.htm#grandeur), Godzilla chuckled and knew that he did not need to intervene, because the situation would resolve itself and never rise to becoming an active threat to his world-straddling hegemony.
Greer’s Unacknowledged covered a well-known series of events, when UFOs shut down nuclear missile silos in the USA, and in one spectacular series of events in the 1960s, more than a dozen nuclear missiles became suddenly disabled when UFOs flew over them. Many of Greer’s Disclosure Project witnesses testified about those incidents with nuclear weapons. The general theme aligns with the idea that ET activity really took off after the USA nuked Japan (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/97-Steven-Greer-s-Latest-UFO-ET-Disclosure-Effort?p=940&viewfull=1#post940), and that the ETs are not going to allow humans to take weaponry into space, at least beyond a near-Earth orbit. This part of the galaxy has been “domesticated,” something like Star Trek’s Federation exists, and humanity is in a kind of quarantine until we grow up and leave our violence behind, as our violent ways are considered highly primitive for spacefaring civilizations. We are the barbarians of our corner of the galaxy, and ethical infants.
Greer’s Unacknowledged covered the issue of ET facilities on the Moon, as disclosed by NASA insiders and others. According to them, the Apollo astronauts regularly encountered ETs, and it was all covered up. The threats that those astronauts lived under were pretty severe. For starters, they would lose their pensions, and the threat of killing them was the tame stuff. The goons threatened to kill off their families, too. Greer wrote extensively that Armstrong and Aldrin lived under those threats, which likely had something to do with the odd answer that Brian received when he asked Buzz (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/97-Steven-Greer-s-Latest-UFO-ET-Disclosure-Effort?p=941&viewfull=1#post941) what it was like on the Moon.
Many of Greer’s witnesses have testified to seeing ETs, both alive and dead, and humanity has killed a number of them. The “cowboys” have technology that shoots at ET craft, and many have been brought down that way. Some insiders are beside themselves over that kind of stupidity. The unanimous opinion of Greer’s witnesses is that the ETs have never appeared to be hostile, and that if they were, they could wipe out the human species in minutes.
There are several levels of understanding available to this situation, and the nuts-and-bolts of sightings, what the craft look like and the way they move, are the most elementary aspects of it, and many UFO researchers get stuck there. Another level is understanding the ramifications of the ET presence and why it is covered up like it is. The highest levels get into the cosmological and spiritual aspects of it, and the physics textbooks will have to be rewritten from scratch if/when those technologies come into public awareness and use.
While official acknowledgement that humanity is not alone in the universe, and that technologically advanced ET civilizations regularly visit Earth, will be newsworthy, by far the most important aspect of this situation is the technologies that they used to get here, and their energy and propulsion systems are by far the most important aspects. The acknowledgement of the ET situation only changes our story a little, not the way we live. Those technologies, however, would have an epochal impact on the human journey, and the biggest of all so far, as humanity would become a Type 1 civilization (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#kardashev).
Greer, like many who have lived for long with the idea of free energy and related technologies, understands full well what the economic and environmental ramifications are, as well as the political and social changes that will result from using them. Without the technological and economic changes, the political and social changes can’t happen (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#necessity), although scientifically illiterate New Agers (http://ahealedplanet.net/purpose.htm#newage) and others argue that humanity is going to suddenly “wake up” through spiritual and social practices. Epochal change (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochaltable) has never happened that way, and I highly doubt that it will this time. This chapter (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5) of my big essay would be no great surprise to Greer, and he outlined several of those outcomes in Unacknowledged.
Greer acknowledged that humans have reverse-engineered ET technology to the point to where Godzilla can use free energy and “antigravity” technology. It was developed to a commercial level before I was born. Whatever a free energy tinkerer comes up with in his garage has been developed to the 35th generation or so in Godzilla’s labs. What my friend was shown (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#underground) was probably mostly developed from reverse-engineering captured ET technology.
I have stayed away from the spiritual and more esoteric aspects of this issue so far in this series of posts, and Greer did too, until the end of Unacknowledged. Those are the most important aspects of the situation, but are also the most mind-blowing. I’ll deal with those next, and finish with the approach that Greer is taking and why I doubt it will work. He might make a dent with it, and God bless him for trying, but he is trying for a mass movement, and my involvement in five of those efforts (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level10) showed me why they won’t work.
Best,
Wade

Hi:
I am not saying that I buy everything that Greer’s witnesses say, or what Greer says, but I take it seriously and don’t immediately dismiss it as tabloid fodder. One of Greer’s witnesses said that the Face on Mars is a genuine artifact, created 45,000 years ago by the ET species that created humanity. I have doubts about tales like that. If and when the evidence is ever made available to the public, it can be explored, but assertions like that I put on my “mental shelf” and take a “let’s see what the better evidence shows” approach to it.
Along with the faked Moon landing issue (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#apollo), Brian got sucked into the Face on Mars issue (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#new), and like with the Moon landings, I watched Brian become a political football, with people trying to put words in his mouth and place him in their camps. Brian never concluded that the Face was artificial, but said that the data was intriguing enough to warrant closer investigation, and I was on the phone with him as he downloaded that 1998 image of the Face, like the rest of us.
Brian eventually disassociated himself from the Mars work of people such as Richard Hoagland (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/91-Scientific-literacy/page3?p=553&viewfull=1#post553), who asserted that the Face was part of a much larger collection of structures in the area, one of which he called a “City,” and Brian wrote that such evidence was “weak, at best.” There is a cottage industry of amateur image analyzers who have posted zillions of Mars photos, arguing for artificial artifacts, and Carl Sagan’s “seeing faces in clouds” criticism is likely accurate for at least 99.99% of such interpretations. I am currently onboard with the idea that there have been no photos from Mars that show artificiality. I have seen literally hundreds of such images, and I have not seen a convincing one yet.
There are many assertions in cyberspace and elsewhere that humanity is genetically engineered, that ET DNA was inserted into humanity recently in our evolutionary journey, that ETs taught humanity how to domesticate plants, that ET technology built the megalithic architecture (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#egyptold) of early civilizations, that a number of technologically advanced civilizations came and went before recorded history, and so on. I have been hearing stuff like that since the 1970s. The more that I studied humanity’s evolutionary journey (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#heritage) and anthropology, the less tenable such tales seemed. Maybe some of those tales are accurate, I but I have seen no strong evidence supporting any of them, and the orthodox interpretations of the evidence do fine, as far as I am concerned. It is easy to make wild assertions with no or fancifully interpreted evidence. There are many amateur archeologists and fringe scholars (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/68-Why-I-am-taking-my-approach?p=117&viewfull=1#post117) who make a living playing to the gullible and scientifically illiterate. The New Age (http://ahealedplanet.net/purpose.htm#newage) talk circuit is full of them.
Yes, the good stuff is sequestered, but I have yet to hear of a fossil dig that has been classified. When Greer discusses the technology in Godzilla’s Golden Hoard, the organized suppression of exotic technology development, the big payouts to shelve such technologies (http://ahealedplanet.net/hooked.htm#payoff), he is on solid ground, as I lived through such events myself, along with those in my inner circle. Those tales, at least, are genuine. Many other assertions are more speculative, at least to me. There are definitely plenty of cloak-and-dagger games happening around UFOs, as Brian discovered the hard way (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#attack). My friend got a little peek at Godzilla’s Golden Hoard (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#underground), and it was mind-blowing. People such as Mark (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=811647&viewfull=1#post811647) discovered the hard way what free energy tinkering in the basement of a nuclear facility can lead to, and how tenable the “sneak past them (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level7)” strategy is.
There are plenty of hard facts to support a great deal of what Greer asserts. I always try to stay within the bounds of the best evidence, and largely put the other stuff on my mental shelf. There is a blizzard of disinformation out there on these topics, and very few people have the right stuff to even try to sort out the genuine from the bogus.
I am coming to the end of these posts on Greer’s latest effort, and want to touch on a subject that I have been dealing with ever since I got my energy dreams when I was 16 (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#glimpse). Mr. Mentor’s engine created a great stir in the federal government, but one high-ranking official told him that trying to commercialize his engine was life-risking behavior, as Detroit’s minions would murder him (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#funeral).
It is natural for American newcomers to the field to think that corporate America, Wall Street, Capitol Hill, the White House, Pentagon, and the like would welcome innovative energy technologies, but that is the furthest thing from the truth. Sure, there are going to be some exceptions, such as Bush the Second’s energy advisor’s (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=694872&viewfull=1#post694872) being one of Dennis’s fans, but for every voice in the wilderness like that, people such as David Rockefeller get involved (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page13?p=888&viewfull=1#post888) to put the kibosh on it. The sitting American president (http://ahealedplanet.net/journey.htm#presidents) is a puppet and knows it, ever since Jack Kennedy was taken out (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page8?p=761&viewfull=1#post761).
Dennis approached Capitol Hill early and often during his adventures. He testified regarding Carter’s energy tax credit (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#sfs), and was appointed to a committee of one to write some performance requirements into alternative energy technology subsidies. Dennis put on many shows in Washington D.C., and he was finally run out of the USA by the feds (http://ahealedplanet.net/paths.htm#ftc), not long after that call from David Rockefeller. Brian began drinking the nationalist Kool-Aid as a teenager, and near his life’s end, he admitted his “codependency (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#early)” with Washington D.C. and informed me that electoral politics in the USA was a dead-end, and he would have known (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#udall).
Greer has played the same games, approaching Washington D.C., Wall Street, “philanthropists (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#philanthropy1),” and the like. Laurence Rockefeller was his mentor on the UFO/ET issue. Washington D.C. activists on these issues are risking their lives (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#activism). I have never been to D.C. and don’t plan to, and it highlights a key difference between my approach and Dennis’s, Brian’s, and Greer’s. Along with their populist approaches, I watched them all beseech the rich and powerful (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#beseeching1), look for allies among “progressives” and the like, and Dennis went after “Patriots (http://ahealedplanet.net/dennis.htm#libel)” and Christians. In one way or another, they were all ways to give our power away, thinking that the rich and powerful and others are going to help, when that is generally the furthest thing from their minds. At best, they hang around like vultures (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#oleary), waiting for the right moment to swoop in for the kill. Environmentalists, for instance, have considered free energy the enemy since the 1970s (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/89-Free-energy-psychic-abilities-and-the-skeptics-and-debunkers/page2?p=438&viewfull=1#post438).
It is very seductive to think that some heavy hitters are going to sidle up the table, put in their big stake, and make it happen, or some strong group out there is going to pitch in. It won’t happen that way, and the sooner that free energy newcomers can lay aside those delusions, the better. In my opinion, Greer has gotten far too cozy with the rich and powerful, and it has shaded his perceptions. How could it not? There are several risks to hobnobbing with that crowd, and I can see some of them in Greer’s approach. My approach does not seek out the rich and powerful. Soon after I wrote of my encounter with Bill Gates and the movie theater (http://ahealedplanet.net/lessons.htm#gates), Brian wanted me to approach Gates on the free energy issue, and set something up with Brian, but I told Brian that he needed to do that with somebody else, as I was not interested. I am sure that Gates has been approached many times on the free energy issue, as has everybody like him, and there is no way that somebody like him will become involved, for several reasons. It is a delusion to think that there are all of these rich philanthropists out there (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#rich), ready to help. It is one more way to look for the easy way out.
I think that Greer has been slowly learning his lessons in this area, but the way he has gone about it has hampered him, and I still see him trying to escape his former orientation.
Best,
Wade

Hey Wade,
Of all the FE activist types currently out there aside from your good self, Greer is the one who most interests/baffles me.
I recently went on a YouTube binge listening to dozens of Brian O' Leary interviews/presentations, and the clear take home message for me was that towards the end, Brian had literally exhausted all avenues trying to make this FE thing happen, and he understood clearly that they were all ultimately dead end approaches, and that the only avenue remaining left to explore that he felt had any kind of a prayer was the one you are pursuing.
Greer is no idiot, but as good as his latest effort is it still falls way short of your approach, and I don't quite understand why he is neither promoting your approach (as Brian did before he passed over) or why he is not incorporating more of it into his own approach. There aren't that many FE activists out there so he must be aware of your work. So what's the issue? As hip as he is, does he simply just not get it to the extent that Brian did and you do? To my mind he can write half a dozen more books and make the same amount of feature films trying to educate the masses on the subject matter, but ultimately all roads lead to your approach. So why not just cut to the chase? Why is he catering to the masses so much?
I was listening to an interview with Greer recently where he was promoting his "Unacknowledged" book and film, and he briefly mentioned in a nod nod wink wink hush hush kind of a way that his next instalment was going to be dedicated to the whole CSETI, CE-5 Initiative thing that he has going on: http://new.cseti.org/ce5initiative.html
Looking at those "core principals" i'm at a loss trying to understand how that whole approach is going to help a FE based utopia in manifesting.
I also don't get the whole obsession that people seem to have with subject matters like the face on Mars, the moon landing, the UFO/ET issue, who constructed the megalithic ruins and what was their function? etc etc How does dwelling our collective minds on any of that stuff help us to manifest a FE based reality? Why marvel and obsess about other beings that currently have or may have had use of that tech to a high level while our own species still can't tell their arses from their elbows, and are still flying around the planet in fossil fuel powered tin-cans within the confines of the lower atmosphere from one plundered land mass to another, when we could all ultimately have our own FE anti-gravity powered craft that we could be using to explore the cosmos in, if enough of us collectively put our minds to it?

Hi David,
I'd like to comment on your latest post. :)
A main difference that I see between Greer and Wade is that Greer is still very much focused on him and his journey. I don't know the whole story, but it also seems to me that him promoting the things he is promoting is a question of survival and identity. And if that is the case, then it is very hard to let go of it, or notice others that may be doing a better job of it. Wade is also focused on his journey, but that is not the main point, only a teaching tool and a way to document the road to his understanding.
One of things I appreciate about Wade (and try to learn that for myself) is how he has very strong views on how things are, but still keeps an open mind. Or maybe one full of shelves with "interesting but questionable data" :). You can see in his writing that there is the willingness to change his views if new evidence shows up. I don't see much of that with Greer.
I also notice in myself the tendency to get stuck with what I know, despite new information that what I know may be outdated, not-useful anymore or just plain false. That saying "don't get stuck with a mistake just because it took so much effort to make it" I think is based in a very astute observation of the human psyche. Willingness to change is not very common. (People dying instead of trying an alternative medicine... you know the stories...)
About people's obsession with the face on Mars and Megalithic structures and ancient history I can talk about my personal experience with that. Obsessed would a be good word to describe my attitude towards that field. But the silver lining here is that at least it got me wondering, dreaming, pondering in other directions than the main stream thinking of what is possible and what not. It was a good way to disconnect from the so called history I've been taught and practice imagining something different. And I still have an interest in those things, but I no longer obsess about it. I think they served their purpose in my life.
In my view, what Greer is doing and the face on Mars thing could be seen as stepping stones in the right direction (or bread crumbs). I don't know if they are required for everyone, but as least for me, there were important on the path of my current understanding. Wade is pretty low key (and that's on purpose) and I wonder if I would have found him if not for people like Greer and my interest in UFOs, Egyptian mysteries and all that lore. I would not have found Project Avalon, let alone Wade's quiet site :)...

Thanks for the comments Ilie.
I agree with most of what you say about Greer. The part that boggles my mind is that Greer must surely be aware of Wade's world, his body of work, and all the invaluable knowledge that he has gained from his direct personal experience, yet Greer still willfully chooses to head on down the same dead ends that Wade and Brian in particular have cautioned about. It's like watching a train wreck waiting to happen, and i'm curious to see how it all plays out knowing that his chances are so very slim, but at the same time i'm rooting for him on the off chance that Godzilla may allow him to succeed. The time is certainly nigh for that to happen.
Re the obsessions with the face on Mars etc I also agree that doing a few deep dives into some of these subject matters can be very good homework, but at the end of the day all roads and rabbit holes lead you back to FE and its suppression and the kind of reality that can be manifested with the aid of its related technology. No other subject matter out there trumps it when you boil it all down. For me its a shame that so many well intended and intelligent folk out there in the alternative community are so completely unaware of Wade's work or if they are aware of it then they fail to fully grok the significance of it and FE, and instead focus their minds far away from the prize. Even someone like Greer who has been so closely involved in the field for so long still seems to struggle to see the forest for the trees.

Hi David:
That was a wonderful, timely post (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1155988&viewfull=1#post1155988). That is a big, important subject, to put it mildly. I like to think of my approach as a kind of Bucky Fuller (http://ahealedplanet.net/roots.htm#fuller) for the 21st century. Boy, do I have my limits. I could not do what Dennis, Brian, and Greer did. God bless them for trying, and for me, the most important aspects of Dennis’s and Brian’s efforts were what they learned. Dennis learned lessons that Brian and Greer couldn’t, and even though I was there (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=601&viewfull=1#post601) for the darkest chapters of Dennis’s journey (as well as the most auspicious ones), even I have a hard time imagining what Dennis lived through. Turn down a billion dollar offer to go away (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#offer), get kangarooed into prison after you refuse (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#bargain), replete with body cavity searches, and they doctor your file (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#mistakes) to throw you into the shark tank and release a serial killer (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page8?p=741&viewfull=1#post741) from “the hole” to be your bunkmate. And when that didn’t work, they frame you for being a snitch and repeatedly put you back in the shark tank with the people who threatened to murder you if you they saw you again. Dennis got “lucky,” and only had some fingers broken and teeth knocked out, and soon after his release from prison, he was wearing dentures, as one of the many prices of his incredible journey.
Dennis received far more White Hat (http://ahealedplanet.net/camelot.htm#white) and Black Hat (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc) attention than I have been able to publicly disclose, and he and Greer are the only two people that I know of who were tagged as potential white knights on steeds by the White Hats. There may have been some others, but it was a handful at most. Of course, Dennis’s and Greer’s “allies” in the field can be counted on to attack them, lie about them, and the like. With Dennis, his assailants took the position of the bigger the lie, the better (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#libel), and what was most dismaying was watching the talking heads in the free energy field parrot the lies. That is one of many reasons why I don’t want to have anything do with the field today. As Brian said, the people who make free energy happen will not be the people in the field today (http://ahealedplanet.net/camelot.htm#new). It is in a state of arrested development (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#arrested), focused on inventors, scientists, Godzilla, and yes, the mass movement idea (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level10) is alive and well, and Greer is still trying it out, as both Brian and Dennis did.
I was planning to write a post or two on Greer’s approach and why I doubt it will work, and I’ll put some of it here. I have written most of it before, repeatedly. As Chris recently noted (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1152338&viewfull=1#post1152338), and I have written at length on and will do far more so in the future, humans are social animals, and sociality is about survival (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialreason), first and foremost. I am not nearly finished with this series of posts (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/96-Human-sociality-and-free-energy?p=925&viewfull=1#post925). In our world of scarcity and fear (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#coming), sociality never really leaves the survival orbit, but free energy newcomers labor under the understandable delusion that their social circles will welcome the end of the world as we know it (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5). I was there when I began, as was almost everybody that I respected in the free energy field. It is one of the early lessons that we all learned. When I caution free energy newcomers against proselytizing to their social circles (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialcircle), it almost never sinks in, at least immediately. My best students rush out to do it, get a knot snapped in their tails by their social circles, and come back to me, chastened, and may be ready to begin learning about what it is going to take to make this happen. There will be nothing easy about this, and the hardest part, by far, will be building the choir (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir).
Dennis and Brian are/were men of the people. Greer isn’t, as anybody who has been around him for long knows. Oh, the stories I have heard. I could draw a graphic of what I am referring to. I watched Dennis vacillate between the “fat cat (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fat_cat_(term))” and Joe Average approaches many times, and Greer did the same thing, as did Brian. They either looked for elite help or the man on the street. With Dennis, only the man on the street helped much, but it was never enough. Dennis was always looking for some kind of lowest common denominator tent pole, and his “Patriot (http://ahealedplanet.net/dennis.htm#libel),” Christian, and business opportunity approaches appealed to the three primary population management ideologies in the USA (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#dominant). The social managers use those ideologies to manage the herd, and Dennis tried to use those very tools to wrest control of the herd from them. I strongly doubt that it will work. You can’t outmaneuver the master shepherd with his own tools.
Brian was steeped in that 1960s radicalism, getting his doctorate (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#early) at Berkeley, protesting the Asian wars (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#protest), etc. Brian eventually realized that combined positive intention (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gcfocus), not complaint-based protest, was the only path with a prayer. Yes, soon before he died, he was planning on promoting my approach (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=918852&viewfull=1#post918852), and when I mentioned to Dennis what I was attempting - the love and enlightenment approach - his eyes immediately lit up, as he realized that I was doing something different. Not many people are really qualified to weigh in on my approach, but for the few that are, they have said that I am the man for this job. I can imagine better candidates for this task, and if I met one, I would likely get into spear-carrier mode once again, but for now, it is just me. I expect that Ilie (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/75-Ilie-Pandia-s-introductory-posts?p=131&viewfull=1#post131) will one day hit notes that I can’t.
My perception of Greer’s efforts is that he is still stuck in the elite/Joe Average dichotomy. That “middle ground” he has not yet explored. If you think about it, for both the elite and Joe Average approaches, the aspirants are not really asking much of their target audiences. Bill Gates could fund the development of free energy (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#demonstrate) with his spare change. Dennis was always “baiting” in Joe Average with business opportunities and the like, the chance to get rich quick. Otherwise, Joe resumed watching his favorite TV show.
My approach asks for far more of my target audience. But unlike Dennis or Greer, or even Brian, I am not asking for money. I don’t need it for what I am doing. But I am asking for something infinitely more important: integrity and sentience (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#sentience1). But I don’t ask for the heroic levels that Dennis lived his journey at (http://ahealedplanet.net/lessons.htm#howmany), and I am not looking for more mental horsepower than it takes to digest my big essay. My work is not all that mentally challenging. What it does do, however, is challenge people to relinquish their in-group conceits (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ingroup), and almost nobody on Earth is willing or able to do that. I seek needles in haystacks and know it.
I’ll get into it more in coming posts, but I see Greer as somebody still taking his baby steps in this milieu, chasing after inventors and the like. But he has slowly learned. About 15 years ago, he was still into intellectual property rights, patents, absolute control, etc. He has now embraced open-sourcing any free energy technology (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#utopia) that comes along, and is trying to convince free energy inventors to do so. I have never seen the inventor with the goods willing to give it away, and I do not know of a group worthy to give it to, to take it the rest of the way. My efforts can be seen as trying to build that worthy group. Giving away history’s most lucrative technology (http://ahealedplanet.net/risk.htm#quadrillion); what an Epochal (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochaltable) idea, but almost nobody is willing to go there, with capitalism dominant, in a world where greed is a virtue (http://ahealedplanet.net/intro.htm#greed).
Yes, with our Brian and Dennis connections at minimum, Greer has to know about me, but I am not sure how much he knows about my approach. I regularly see us being compared. Even if he bought my approach, his entire effort would have to be radically overhauled, and it is possible that he could not make the shift if he tried, as he would have to change the DNA of his effort. This is a huge subject. Those who have been watching me in action for the past several years know how unwaveringly I am pursuing my approach, and I am not influenced by newcomer bright ideas, which have all been variations of the same failed approaches (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#approaches). It took many years for me to realize what has not worked and why. In short, Greer does not have my experience, so he has to keep chasing down his trails that lead to nowhere. Will he figure it out before he is too old to change gears? I am not sure. There is much more coming on this.
Best,
Wade

Hi Ilie and David:
Do you know what a pleasure it is for me to read two of my best students interacting like that? I’ll write some more today on the topics that you bring up. Yes, this is the Big One. Nothing else on Earth holds a candle to it.

Hi:
I could spend days responding to what David and Ilie brought up this morning, but I have a busy day ahead of me, so briefly, I mentioned what I now call the first New Age book that I ever read, on Comet Kohoutek (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/77-What-I-learned-and-how-I-learned-it?p=144&viewfull=1#post144), when I was 15, but I have had two of Frank Edwards’s “Strange (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/70-Distinguishing-the-wheat-from-the-chaff-and-my-life-s-journey?p=102&viewfull=1#post102)” books since I was about 12, and I recall being fascinated by the TV show The Sixth Sense (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Sixth_Sense_(TV_series)) when I was 14. For a science prodigy, that was strange behavior indeed. :) But Kohoutek fizzled, I spent two months in Europe (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#europe) getting my cultural awakening, soon after Mr. Mentor’s engine began making waves (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#glimpse), and by the autumn of 1974, I was quickly adopting a no-nonsense approach to all of that stuff, until that fateful evening when my father and brother said that they could read my aura. The next month, my life changed forever with my mystical awakening (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#silva).
I then focused my highly studious ways toward spiritual literature, and became quite the mystical student. I studied math and science by day, and mystical literature and had mystical experiences by night. The Kohoutek situation was the first of many, many like it that I encountered over the next generation. I have written before about watching pyramid energy in action (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=201370&viewfull=1#post201370), so I don’t doubt that there were some esoteric aspects of the necropolis at Giza (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#egyptold), but first and foremost, it was an elite form of display (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#display1). In the esoteric wing of my library are many works that deal with pyramids, alleged civilizations such as Atlantis (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#atlantis), an entire bookcase and more of channeled material, etc. Most of the New Age (http://ahealedplanet.net/purpose.htm#newage) subjects that you can imagine, I have studied, and as Ilie said, that material was a valid part of his path, as it was mine.
But as David said, what practical use is any of it? Even if valid, much of it does little more than tell us that the universe is a big and strange place, but, as anybody knows who has spent very long diving deeply into such material, the evidence to support the popular ideas around those subjects is often thin-to-non-existent, and even if valid, most of it ends up in “so what?” land. Very little of it is going to help humanity turn the corner (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#sixth). Studying that material helped me in a few ways. One was, as Ilie noted, a way of expanding one’s horizons beyond the tired orthodox paradigms (http://ahealedplanet.net/orthodox.htm#orthodoxy) that we get raised with. Another was learning to hone our tools of discernment, to eventually realize that nearly all of that fringe stuff is chaff (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/68-Why-I-am-taking-my-approach?p=117&viewfull=1#post117).
I have stated that it is probably a good idea to go down at least one fringe rabbit hole, as the experience can be highly educational as you dive in, perhaps get mired in it, and learn to extract yourself. But this can also be very hazardous; I have watched people dive down the rabbit holes and never emerge, or when they do, they belong to some cult or reside in a mental institution. Your feet need to be firmly on the ground to visit those realms, and your BS detector needs to be set on high. Anybody who has done any of this knows full well what I am writing about.
One example is conspiracist literature. Global conspiracies definitely exist (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc), but few have a balanced, mature, and productive perspective of the issue (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#weakness), either denying their existence, obsessing over them, or having a tabloid-ish titillation with them.
Best,
Wade

From Post #6938 by David Hughes :
“...Greer is no idiot, but as good as his latest effort is it still falls way short of your approach, and I don't quite understand why he is neither promoting your approach (as Brian did before he crossed over) or why he is not incorporating more of it into his own approach...”
“...I also don't get the whole obsession that people seem to have with subject matters like the face on Mars, the moon landing, the UFO/ET issue, who constructed the megalithic ruins and what was their function? etc etc....Ultimately, who cares? Somewhat fascinating subject matter to a degree, granted, but how does dwelling our collective minds on any of that stuff help us to manifest utopia with the aid of FE tech? Why marvel and obsess about other beings that currently have or may have had use of that tech to a high level while our own species still can't tell their asses from their elbows, and are still flying around in primitive fossil fuel tin-cans within the confines of the lower atmosphere around this planet from one sh#t heap to another, when we could all ultimately have our own FE anti-gravity powered craft that we could be exploring the cosmos in, if enough of us collectively put our minds to it?...”
Good to read your thoughts again David.
For what it’s worth, I doubt I’m saying anything new to you or anyone else here. Just sharing. And some of it Ilie and Wade already touched on.
Re: the quoted portions above – starting with “Why marvel and obsess about other beings that currently have or may have had use of that tech to a high level while our own species still can't tell their asses from their elbows...”
I sometimes think that part of that obsession for some can come from a conscious / unconscious fear of not being enough. Almost as if we marvel at what advanced beings can or could do, or at what we imagine they can or could, because we lack the confidence to believe we can do it ourselves. As if gazing at that vision of those “others” is, in part, a way of marvelling at our own potential before we’re ready to try it, or even acknowledge it within ourselves. It takes strength to try it ourselves. The strength for us to risk failure. Strength to pick ourselves up after failing. It takes strength to know when to hold back and say wait, it’s not ready yet, we need to look again before we leap. It takes strength to balance the drive to try and succeed, with the need to be careful and kind. It takes strength to commit to sifting through scientific or historic data, just as it takes strength to hone skills of telekinesis or levitation. Different strengths for each. Or in some ways the same. The strength to commit to some ideas, and let go of others. It takes strength to truly love.
For some, the fascination with alien or off-world life may come from a need to process their past, parallel or other-dimensional lives, or a wish to take longer to process the potential of a history that may have been supressed. Some people may be destined to spend another ten or fifty years delving into that area of fascination before they are ready to address the potential of our future.
One person’s reason to obsess may be different from another’s. Some are drawn to obsess over aliens because they project all kinds of things onto them. An overwhelming power, or a vast sea of knowledge. A dark agenda, or a saving grace. For some they may be utterly drawn to the topic because it is a passion for a field of expertise, and they aim to be as masterful as they can in that area of knowledge-seeking, and in that way be of service to their fellow human-beings. For others it may be because they have unresolved traumas or issues as a result of contact with extra-terrestrial or inter-dimensional beings, whether fully or only partially remembered – and it is an authentic part of living their truth / healing to seek knowledge in that area.
It wouldn’t surprise me if Wade (hi Wade) finds it hard to find others who are prominent / well-known who will join him in his choir initially. I’ve heard people in the field of non-mainstream research (I'm not referring to David) complain that prominent figures don’t get together more to form a committed unit that can amplify its power by coming together, and thereby expedite change. But the figures they refer to are so few and far between, with their own lives, locations, ideas, differences, pressures, etc, that it seems unlikely. So whilst I think it’s a natural response at first to visualise the power of that kind of collective, I also consider it might be a reflection, yet again, of our desire for someone to lead us. For another to make up for what we feel we lack. Whilst it may be a progression from wanting just one guy or gal at the helm, like some messianic torch barer, it may still in some way be symptomatic of a thirst for leadership. We might be of more help to progressing our situation if instead of getting frustrated at a lack of group leadership, we look within to educate and lead ourselves.
I know it’s natural, even healthy, to look to those who are experienced and have been dedicated in a field, to lead it to a degree. But in examining the shadow side of that, it brings forward a handful of itchy questions for me.
After all, how many leaders, or groups of leaders (where one leader reassuringly makes up for what the other lacks and visa versa) do we need before we feel ready to be ‘led’? Do we in some way, secretly hope that the individual virtues of that mythical group of leaders, will, combined, represent the wholeness we feel we lack? A sort of ideal human whose parts are contained within the separate individuals of the group? Do we need 5 or 10 to come together in constant agreement, or at least a satisfying degree of agreement on ’enough,’ before we’ll feel confident to back their endeavour or recommend it? Do we think it might attract more useful public support if 5 or 10 of the finest and most qualified men and women will get behind one FE movement?
Part of their staying separate may in fact be a survival strategy. Pull 5 or 10 of the finest under one umbrella movement, and it becomes a lot easier to tear that movement down by discrediting it. So in that sense, if we fear that kind of movement being discredited, maybe we’re better off without it for now. It is far more difficult to dent a movement’s credibility if it’s made up of thousands of members who are all educated enough to understand the concepts it revolves around, rather than if it was made up by a minority who understood them comprehensively, and a majority that were impressed enough by that to follow.
Some part of us may expect those leaders to take the pressure of that pioneer role, but how well do we understand the huge burden that places on them, so we don’t have to face it? How prepared are we to qualify ourselves to be of more support? Do we think a group of 10 FE leaders combined will be a solid-enough representation that religious and political leaders can ‘get behind’, or make a savvy-looking panel for press briefings, or stimulate Godzilla’s sympathy for us? I know it’s just words, and easily said, but perhaps more than needing an impressive group of FE leaders, we need to learn how to better love and respect ourselves. Including forgiveness and compassion for ourselves / one another. I don’t say that to be preachy. I say it as someone who struggles with it, but sees the benefits when I achieve it.
Maybe some prominent voices don’t recommend Wade’s work because their egos don’t want it to detract from their own, or prod the boundaries of their comfort zones. If they’ve made a living, or carved out a sense of respected identity, for their own research, perhaps they don’t want to rock that boat for the sake of an FE endeavour that won’t pay their bills (financially or emotionally.) Maybe some don’t recommend Wade’s approach because although they admire it, they are not sure they fully understand it. Maybe some don’t because they understand and respect the work, just as Wade respects theirs, but with it being comprehensive they don’t want to recommend it publicly and face the negative feedback from all the people who can’t grasp it and feel threatened by it. Wade admits he could be wrong at times – maybe some see where before he does, but don’t engage him because they aren’t sure they can prove it adequately. I don’t claim to know. I just tend to think that if people are committed enough to exploring FE, they will find this thread, or Wade’s website, and decide for themselves if it resonates enough for them to join in. Part of sharing your work publicly means accepting that it may inspire people (to think, change, create etc in productive ways) who will never publicly acknowledge the role your work played in inspiring them. Still it’s there, in pubic, to do what it can.
Maybe if there were more people stepping up to participate in the conversations, rather just observing / learning from them, more of the ‘experts’ people seek would come forward to engage. But I don’t think it’s wrong to just observe or learn if that’s all someone feels ready for. It’s certainly better to know you are not an experienced veteran on the FE battlefield, or a genius at retaining and synthesising scientific data, than to have an egotistical delusion that you’ve nothing much to learn. Equally it’s better to stay off this thread if you feel you’ll just end up arguing, even with yourself, and don’t wish to be unproductive. There are probably people far more qualified than me who could contribute in a very valuable way to this thread, but who don’t. And perhaps for legitimate, respectable reasons. Equally though, I don’t know how helpful it is if people hold back because they are afraid of contributing, or even, perhaps, because their ego prevents them from joining a ‘Wade brigade’ :biggrin: I also don’t necessarily expect high profile people to join Wade’s choir while Wade is its most prolific or qualified member, when they can just interact with him privately.
People occasionally pop in here and take jabs at Wade, and I vaguely recall seeing others elsewhere refer to this thread as Wade and his followers, in a dismissive tone. All I can share is my own understanding and ideas, as they evolve. And my understanding of Wade’s thread, or at least the opportunity it gives me, is to explore the ideas he and others present here, to the best of my ability, in order to grow my own understanding. In order to grow the part of me that seeks to explore ways of healing our race and our planetary ecosystems, not just for the next 50 years, but for the next 500 and more. And not just to survive, but to thrive and to grow. That’s why I am drawn to FE visualisations, and not just to advocating solar panels and wind farms. That’s why I write my Future Earth posts, because it’s an act of creation that helps me channel the love I feel is possible. It doesn’t heal every part of me. It certainly doesn’t make me more virtuous. But it helps me connect with the truth that anything is possible. And that our future can be not only good, but miraculous in ways I’ve yet to even conceive.
All of the above considered, I don’t look for the Fraziers, the Greers, the Gililands or O’Learys etc, to agree on everything. Anymore than Wade and Brian always agreed when Brian was around - they reportedly didn’t always agree, but Wade has often said, in the last part of Brian’s life, they agreed on enough. Why should everyone agree all the time? The question for me is can we agree on enough of the fundamentals to move us forward enough on the significant areas? If leaders in knowledge and research on FE, and the rest of us, agree on enough, we should be able to see it whether they or we come together ‘as one’ visibly or not. Because it will be apparent in the spirit in which we share, and in which we treat each other. It may be apparent in the way the FE movement starts to make strides in various different movements because the loving, informed consciousness that supports the ideas has grown around the planet, with or without invisible off-world or even white-hat help. Anyone, from prominent field-leaders, to anonymous forum writers, can speak of love, and of history, and of supressed technology. But the proof is in the pudding. When enough of us can provide support to a peaceful FE culture by raising our conscious state, maybe it will create enough of a shift in the collective consciousness to bring about radical and positive change. A foundation of consciousness on which a peaceful FE culture can be built and sustained. That’s always been my understanding of what Wade would like to see. As always, you can correct me if that’s wrong Wade.
I hope that wasn’t too long.
Much love to all. Always.

Hi:
I sat down to write a little more on today’s exchanges, before I hit the hay, and saw that Melinda (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1156239&viewfull=1#post1156239) dropped a few more of her gems on this thread. Could I properly reply to today’s posts in less than a week?
Briefly, Greer is trying his best, and his elite orientation and going through the meat grinder have kind of set his approach, but I have seen him learn over the years, such as eventually adopting an open-source approach. The last thing that I want to be is critical of Greer’s efforts. It is easy to be an armchair critic, and my own adventures give me a very good idea of what Greer deals with on a daily basis. You need the patience of a saint to do that, and neither Greer nor I (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#reading) have that. Brian and Dennis were amazing to watch in action, which is why I eagerly carried their spears (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5), at least for a time. Will Greer be the one that Godzilla allows to succeed, using him as a white knight on a steed? Maybe, but I won’t spend more than a microsecond hoping for that. I don’t think that we can wait for some hero/Messiah to save us all (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#messiah1).
It took me many years to understand the many ways that people fail to gain productive perspectives of these issues, and after encountering Bucky (http://ahealedplanet.net/roots.htm#fuller), the Peak Oilers (http://ahealedplanet.net/hooked.htm), and others back in 2003-2004, which were also my NEM days (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#nem), I began to see what all of those reactions had in common: an inability or unwillingness to lay aside their scarcity-based perspectives (http://ahealedplanet.net/hooked.htm#misinformation). I have seen literally hundreds of shades of that mentality, and I long ago decided to stop wasting my time with people who were unable or unwilling to understand, seek those who do or can, and I know how few and far between they are. And that is not a judgment (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#judge1), but just the numbers. I know what a mere handful of us were able to accomplish – we caused Godzilla some interesting days in the office – and if I could gather and train those 5,000-7,000 singers, free energy and the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5) would be a done deal. I have no doubt about that, and it would not matter what Godzilla did if a true choir got that large. A one-man show is not going to get there, but all such efforts do start with one person.
I want to focus on what might have a chance, and not waste any more time and effort on the tried-and-true paths of failure (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#approaches). ANYBODY can do what I am doing, or Greer, or Dennis, or Brian. The only qualification needed is living on planet Earth. Will the Lone Rangers of Free Energy make a dent, the tinkerers and their gizmos, those who proselytize to their social circles? I have yet to see any of that get anywhere, other than perhaps getting the Golden Handcuffs. A little dent in Godzilla’s checkbook is all that that is.
After carrying the spears through five mass movement campaigns (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level10), I am done with that phase of my life. I am obviously doing something very different from what Greer is. He is not presenting 2,000 pages of comprehensive material (http://ahealedplanet.net/home.htm), and is not looking for singers. None of his books even have indexes, which is always a statement on the kind of audience that an author is trying to reach. Greer and I are going for very different audiences, and I wish him the best. Could the choir (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir) complement his effort? Possibly, but I will be very wary of getting my effort subsumed into somebody else’s. After the NEM experience, I was done with joining somebody else’s effort, and trying to recruit supporters for another effort is not what I am about.
Maybe, just maybe, more than one choir will form out there. If they are all hitting the notes, that would be powerful and more than welcome.
Time for bed.
Best,
Wade

Hey Wade,
When I was a teenager I encountered a brief article in the tabloid newspaper that my father bought daily in which a guy called David Icke was ridiculed for proclaiming himself to be the Son of God. My reaction after reading the article was one of curiosity having never heard anyone make a claim like that before. I was highly disillusioned with the Catholic church at that time and I wanted to know more about what this Icke chap believed and why he believed what he did. But this was pre-internet so I didn't have the means to find out any more information about him. I clearly recall saying to myself that one day I would find out more information about this guy, and then proceeded to imprint his name into my memory.
In 2010 then one evening, bored of watching CNN in my apartment (I rarely read books and still got most of my information from the TV rather than the internet at that time), the name David Icke popped back into my mind and I searched for him on YouTube out of curiosity. I watched one of his videos where he was alive and well giving a presentation about his take on the nature of reality, and I found myself agreeing with much of what he was saying. I recall thinking that he was clearly way out there but far more "in tune" with things than most people I knew. 7 years on and he's still banging the same drums today rarely if ever mentioning FE - the elephant in the room and the answer to all the problems that he passionately and eloquently rants and raves about.
After the Icke video finished a link appeared in the 'suggested videos' section on YouTube for a Project Camelot interview with Pete Peterson. I clicked on it and ended up watching it repeatedly in disbelief. While researching the subject matter covered in that interview, I eventually came across a Brian O'Leary lecture where he was promoting his new book "The Energy Solution Revolution". I read it and was suitably impressed. I then contacted Brian by email, and after a few exchanges he highly recommended that I further school myself by reading Wade's website "ahealedplanet.net". So, I did, for many months before contacting Wade via this forum.
After interacting with Wade and the other forum members here, and completely satisfying myself that all this FE stuff was for real, I busied myself with finding out as much information as I could about various other topics such as the pyramids and other megalithic buildings, "sacred" geometry, finance and economics, alternative medicine and nutrition, 9/11 truth, alternative theories regarding evolution, FE physics, secret societies and esoteric/occult knowledge, spirituality etc etc, all the while with this question at the forefront of my mind: "If this stuff is true, how does any of it benefit mankind, the planet, the other species living on it, and ultimately the universe, the way FE tech would if implemented virtuously?"
I don't agree with everything Wade says and writes but why sweat the small stuff? Ultimately, what's the point in bickering/obsessing about ancient civilizations, the face on Mars, 9/11, alien races, the JFK assassination etc etc? All that stuff is just mind games at the end of the day, serving as distractions far removed from the holy grail, the elephant in the room, the one thing that can help us to collectively manifest a heavenly reality on Earth and far beyond that.
The only area out there that I have encountered that in my opinion can hold something of a candle to the FE stuff is the health/disease side of things. There is an undeniable link/connection between the health of our bodies and minds in relation to the conscious reality that an individual experiences, and also then obviously to the collective realities that we experience, so i've been doing a deep deep dive into all that stuff as I strongly feel that it complements/dove tails Wade's work nicely. A healed body and mind can do no harm in helping to manifest a healed planet.

Good post David!
In relation to the topics you mentioned, I know exactly how you feel. Whenever anyone mentions Atlantis I actually get a visceral, gut sense of deja vu and longing, completely independent of the veracity of current evidence on that topic. Who knows, perhaps I was once incarnated in a community that got flooded during the Younger Dryas? I agree though that it's small beans in relation to the epochal significance of FE. I'm personally trying to scale back the amount of time I spend studying various topics. After FE has averted a worldwide collapse and nature is healing, we will all have more time to research and piece together other topics.

Hi David (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1155988&viewfull=1#post1155988):
The paths that lead to free energy are varied, and yours (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1156278&viewfull=1#post1156278) is common enough. Pretty much nobody in my free energy circles began their journeys thinking about free energy. We all got there via different paths. I can sum up the gist of my message in a few words:
Free energy’s Epochal significance and how we can make it happen
If a person can understand that, the rest will be easy. Getting there is the hard part. The medical issues that you mention will all be solved with free energy. Our diets of dead, preserved (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#lessons), and processed food are abysmal, but humanity has been doing it for so long that it seems “normal.” We are adapted to cooked food (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#cooking), but the less cooking and preserving, the better. With free energy, all people will have access to as much healthy (read: fresh fruits and vegetables, mainly) food as they want. No more violent and lucrative interventions, warfare against the body (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#masculine), even, and called “medicine.” No more pollution (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#immediate). No more overwork. No more of our insanely unhealthy practices. I live in the richest and most powerful nation in history, as a member of history’s most privileged demographic group, and it is battle to find enough time to take care of myself. Trying to save the world doesn’t help. :)
So many practices that are today considered “normal” will no longer make sense in a free energy economy. Nations (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#nations), races, wars (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#peacekeeping), cities (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#cities), and many features of human societies that we take for granted and even call human “nature,” such as greed (http://ahealedplanet.net/intro.htm#greed), will simply fade away, and quickly.
Disagreement is fine. You will see that Ilie and I have disagreed on this thread, and it is all good. But people had better be able to back up their arguments with evidence, logic, experience, and the like (something that my assailants have never done (http://ahealedplanet.net/critics.htm#troll)). In our world of scarcity and fear (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#coming), being “wrong” is somehow unclean. In the end, we are all wrong, as we see through the glass so dimly in physical reality, groping our way forward.
You can take this to the bank:
Free energy technology, at a commercial level, exists on Earth today.
So does so-called antigravity and other technologies (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ideal) that look like something out of Star Trek (http://ahealedplanet.net/abund.htm#trek). But wrapping your mind around the whole enchilada is anything but easy, and people fly off in all sorts of crazy directions, and yes, Icke will bang the conspiracist drum until he dies. That conspiracist stuff (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#conspiracism) is but one small facet of the situation, but many get stuck there. Getting stuck in those areas of “symptoms,” not causes, leads to stunted perspectives. A comprehensive perspective (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#developing) is what is needed. My big essay is largely a prelude to understanding this chapter of it (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5). Everything before it is preparatory, and this chapter (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#worked) is about how to help make it happen. That is my big essay in a nutshell.
Hi Chris (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1156328&viewfull=1#post1156328):
Yes, once the important work is done, we will have plenty of leisure to explore those other subjects. Under a free energy economy, the average “workday” will be an hour or two, and everybody will live at a level of real wealth that makes Bill Gates seem a pauper.
Time to begin my busy day.
Best,
Wade

Hey Melinda,
Thanks for your thoughtful post. I hope to have the time to partake in more a detailed discussion on all these topics in the near future but for now I don't, so apologies for not being able to write you a proper reply.
Hey Chris,
"I'm personally trying to scale back the amount of time I spend studying various topics."
I get that folk are gonna need to spend time studying other topics in order to gain a more comprehensive perspective, but there has to be an order of priority to things, with FE and its related topics being top of the pile by far, as its the only thing out there that represents a realistic answer to our problems. And none of that stuff evn makes sense without having a well seasoned spiritual perspective. Part of the issue is obviously that people simple don't have enough of a comprehensive perspective to properly grasp the significance of FE, and how everything fits together once you begin to really understand it all. As an example, if you study 911 for 10 years, stargates and UFO's for 5, the JFK assassination for 3 years, and then sprinkle in some Antartica/Atlantis conspiracy stuff, and then you watch Greer's new movie and a few other in vogue documentaries, you're gonna fall well short of the mark in terms of being able to piece things together to see the bigger picture.
The one subject matter that helped me to really grasp the significance of FE was when I started studying finance and economics, and began to understand how it wasn't money that was driving the whole thing, it was energy. Money eventually becomes obsolete in a FE based reality. I also think that having a background in science has also helped me to be very selective and more discerning about what I believe in. I primarily want strong evidence and preferably direct personal experience from multiple sources. It's difficult to get sucked in too deep to any dead-end rabbit hole with that kind of a mind-set.
Hey Wade,
Yeah that was the point that I was trying to make in my post about how my journey was not uncommon, and how I was not well read or someone of particularly high intelligence. So why then is there not more folk out there currently discussing this important material with you? I thought for sure that by now with your essay out a while, and with people having had time to read and digest it that there would have been at least a couple dozen new members on board considering the numbers and how you are only aiming for "5000-7000 singers".
Can more be done to promote your work and approach without going the Greer mainstream approach? Not long ago I listened to your Camelot interview with Brian and it's very good, as is your interview with Scott. Any plans to do more interviews like that to promote your work?
Thanks.

Hi:
The past couple of days have seen a few choral notes being hit. Thank you all. What you all have in common is several years and more of familiarity with my work.
Believe it or not, the first half of my big essay (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#midpoint) is highly important for what I am doing, and I look forward to discussions of chapters such as this one (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#colonize1), someday. Maybe I’ll have to invite Peter Ward (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page6?p=738&viewfull=1#post738) in for that. :) Developing a comprehensive perspective is going to be necessary for people in the choir, for a few reasons, one of which is that it helps ground people when dealing with the free energy issue. Another is that it helps create a framework in which energy’s role is intimately understood, and the potential of free energy becomes very familiar, in ways that go far beyond people thinking that free energy means the end of utility bills. That is obviously the least of it, but not many people have ever gone very far past that. Many can see that free energy means the end of the world as we know it, but all that they can see is their niche disappearing, and they react in fear. That comprehensive perspective (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#developing) makes the other possibilities very clear, and in ways that are not frightening.
If you have ever reached professional mastery of something, you don’t need user manuals, guide books, and the like, but you know what you have mastered like the back of your hand. There is always something new to learn, but you are familiar with the furniture in your head, and can play it by ear. While I don’t need mastery of the material in my big essay for people in the choir (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir), they need to be at least journeymen/women, and be familiar enough with the basics to engage in competent discussions of the material.
Hi David:
I just saw your latest post (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1156454&viewfull=1#post1156454) as I was writing this. Yes, a regular bloke like you could stumble into my work, do the work, and learn to sing. :) Yes, a scientific background definitely helps. Yes, I plan to get more visible, and more interviews are probably coming, but my plate is so full. I took on a biography project for somebody at about Uncle Noam (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#chomsky) stature, and I have been itching to make my essay update, which is now more than a year overdue. It may be the most important revision for many years. My day job has been crazily demanding, and I have to play dutiful husband (my life’s greatest joy), and while I plan to do more interviews, what I really need these days is people like you stepping up and exercising your comprehensive chops. A high-level conversation, not a one-man show, is what will attract the people I seek. The first ones are the hardest to train. It took Jose Silva (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#silva) several years to train his first adult, long after children had mastered it.
If I am lucky, I will finish the essay update this year, but it is going to be a stretch. I understand the sense of urgency to make free energy happen, but people like me are doing what we can in our “spare” time. Crazy, I know, but that is the world we live in.
Best,
Wade

Hi:
Let me finish up these Greer posts (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/97-Steven-Greer-s-Latest-UFO-ET-Disclosure-Effort?p=938&viewfull=1#post938), and then those sociality posts (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/96-Human-sociality-and-free-energy?p=925&viewfull=1#post925). They are related, because Greer is going for the social approach. He sells Unacknowledged t-shirts and tote bags (https://sirius-disclosure.myshopify.com/). I’ll wait for the coffee mugs. :) He is crowdfunding (http://fundraising.siriusdisclosure.com/), and like Brian sadly did in his last years, Greer rents himself out as a celebrity. I get about three emails a week from Greer’s organization, and one a couple of weeks ago was titled, “Win a workshop AND dinner with Dr. Greer!” Greer is playing the mass movement game (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level10), and the unscholarly nature of his books (no indexes, for instance) makes his target audience clear. People are supposed to tell their friends and neighbors about Greer’s efforts, build a buzz, and the like. His latest movie had a red carpet premiere (https://video.search.yahoo.com/yhs/search?fr=yhs-mozilla-004&hsimp=yhs-004&hspart=mozilla&p=unacknowledged+movie+premiere+hollywood#id=1&vid=d31aff6d19e7f3dbbeb4aeed988fe03a&action=click). Well, the biggest event in the human journey (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5) is quite the Holy Grail, so Greer’s style is understandable. Dennis put 5,000 people into a sports stadium (http://ahealedplanet.net/dennis.htm#philly), and I was his assistant for his first Greatest Energy Shows on Earth (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#barnum). I know the drill. :)
But I saw whom our efforts attracted, they often caused more harm than good, and they were almost effortlessly manipulated by Godzilla’s minions. Maybe one or two in the crowd had the right stuff. As David noted (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1155988&viewfull=1#post1155988), how Greer’s CE-5 initiative (http://new.cseti.org/ce5initiative.html) is going to make a dent is somewhat of a mystery. I doubt that the ETs are going to intervene and save us, and they likely shouldn’t. We need to learn to paddle our own canoe. Godzilla (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc) is our problem to solve, not the ETs’. Godzilla is not another out-group to be reviled (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ingroup1), but they are part of us. But they also cannot be negotiated with. They can only be made obsolete (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#elitedisappear), which will take an unprecedented act of integrity and sentience, and Greer does not appear to be aiming that high, although his approach is generally an enlightened one.
Near the end of his book Unacknowledged, Greer discussed his journey, which readers of his earlier books will be familiar with. He started out low-key, going for a grass-roots effort, but was soon approached by the military and the like. Brian nearly lost his life (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#attack) in those early events that Greer described. Greer was soon briefing all manner of official, and he soon discovered that the sitting president (http://ahealedplanet.net/journey.htm#presidents) was completely out of the loop on the issue. Greer described it as a silent coup d’état, in which the formal government had been rendered irrelevant on the most important issues. And so his adventures began. In Unacknowledged, Greer briefly referred to people in his circle being taken out, and the most spectacular was when several of them came down with advanced forms of strange cancer soon after those 1997 Congressional hearings. I was an observer when that happened, and sent Greer’s assistant, Shari Adamiak (http://ahealedplanet.net/journey.htm#adamiak), information on Naessens’s (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#naessens) and other alternative treatments, but Greer was the only survivor, and those familiar with the milieu had no doubt that they were subjected to Godzilla’s evil bag of tricks.
While Colby was the consummate liar (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/97-Steven-Greer-s-Latest-UFO-ET-Disclosure-Effort?p=942&viewfull=1#post942), Greer reported that a bout of conscience spurred Colby to help Greer’s effort with money and some of that sequestered technology, and Colby was found floating in a river a few days later. Again, I have little doubt about why Colby died. Greer is playing an insanely dangerous game (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#activism).
Near his book’s end, Greer had a short chapter on the cosmic false flag event, in which “disclosure” of the alien presence will be a manufactured event that depicts ETs as the ultimate existential threat to humanity. It is a dark pather’s (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#serving) wet dream, to force humanity to huddle under Godzilla’s “protection (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#jungle)” in history greatest protection racket. I have no doubt that such plans exist. It is merely the logical conclusion of that mentality.
Next in Unacknowledged, Greer had a chapter titled, “A Call to Action,” which was about telling one’s friends and neighbors about Unacknowledged, including screening the movie at their homes, donating to Greer’s cause, encouraging “insiders” to come forward, contacting their Senators, Congressmen and women, and other politicians, contacting ETs using Greer’s CE-5 protocol, and lastly, donating to a free energy development effort, which Greer called The New Earth Incubator Fund.
As I have stated before, I have seen Greer change his tune over the years, and there is a lot of what he is doing that I agree is on the right path, including open-sourcing (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#utopia) and complete transparency of the development effort. That is certainly a step in the right direction. There is a lot that Greer gets right in his approach today that he was still groping toward 15 years ago.
Will he make a dent with his effort? Maybe, but I had my fill of mass movement efforts long ago. Also, although Greer tries, he is not a man of the people like Dennis and Brian are/were. We all have our human foibles, and it is no exception among free energy aspirants (patriot), including me. After those untimely deaths soon after those Congressional hearings, Greer was never the same and went über-warrior, and is quite the body-builder, almost like a caricature. Those in my inner circle think that Greer’s personality was altered during those days. I don’t know about that, but it would not surprise me. I have probably been zapped by some of Godzilla’s toys, and it was not fun, let me tell you. Whether it was just his reaction to the trauma, or he was messed with by Godzilla’s exotic toys, that über-warrior orientation is not the one to lead the charge with, in my opinion. I am going for a sentient lamb stampede. :)
The NEM conference (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#portland) was held in Mallove’s memory, and Greer said that people such as Mallove had to have “countermeasures” in place to play that game, or suffer an untimely end, as Mallove did, and Greer has a “dead man’s switch (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dead_man%27s_switch)” in place to name names of the global cabal (http://ahealedplanet.net/journey.htm#cabal), and other information. Threatening Godzilla like that has no place in my effort. If they want to take me out, away I will go.
While Greer is playing a game that I don’t want to get within a million miles of, does his approach have a prayer? Maybe, but I have never found the masses suitable for an effort like this, and I have seen how one warrior leading the charge ends (http://ahealedplanet.net/lessons.htm#howmany). I am doing something very different from what Greer is, and when I see my effort compared to his, it brings up mixed feelings. I don’t want to bury anybody else (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#journey) whom I got involved in my journey, and maybe Greer thinks that he can avoid it, but what an incredibly perilous game to play.
In Boston (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=611&viewfull=1#post611), Dennis and I had a very good idea of what was coming, but it was still a shock (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page4?p=660&viewfull=1#post660) when it happened. But my big surprise was not that Godzilla existed, was vigilant, and had many eagerly doing his bidding, but all of the betrayals and attacks by my friends, family, and allies were the eye-openers, and how I learned my journey’s most important lesson (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page6?p=708&viewfull=1#post708). I have heard Greer allude to the many betrayals by his allies, so he has been learning the lessons, and what he is doing today seems to try to avoid the more obvious pitfalls, but I have seen what the crowds that he hopes to attract are good for, and many will cheer (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=604&viewfull=1#post604) if he is burned at the stake. When the price of admission is buying a t-shirt, the bar has been set pretty low. While I ask for no money, the bar for my effort is far higher than Greer’s is. That means that I am not going to draw a crowd, but that is also not my intention. I seek needles in haystacks (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialcircle) and know it. As I stated yesterday (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page8?p=947&viewfull=1#post947), what I need are people stepping up and singing with me, now, not getting on Oprah. But it also takes years to do the work to get to that stage, for the few with the right stuff (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=308&viewfull=1#post308). That is the biggest difference between what Greer and I are doing. Maybe he will make a dent, and maybe I will, and maybe we will both make dents that prove sufficient. Again, I wish Greer the best. I will be among the first to hoist a toast to him if he succeeds, but I am doing Plan B, or maybe Plan Z.
Best,
Wade

“Hey Melinda,
Thanks for your thoughtful post. I hope to have the time to partake in more a detailed discussion on all these topics in the near future but for now I don't, so apologies for not being able to write you a proper reply...”
Hi David,
I appreciate you saying that, but no need to apologise. I wish you the best with everything you’ve got going on.
To Wade,
I thought #6951 a great post.
To all,
Sometimes when I write my responses I forget to include the caveat that my reply is not entirely a direct response to the person I’m quoting, or an interpretation of what I believe they personally feel or think. Often people’s posts just inspire a range of thoughts around the subject matter. I certainly don’t think I’m laying out anything that anyone 'needs' to hear either (lots of savvy people on this forum.) But it does help me to process things sometimes, to write at length, though I realise these big-mumma posts of mine are a big ask for a reader. It’s a shame, in our energy culture, with economics being the way they are, that more people don’t have the time (as I’ve had time) to write more here, as I know there would be a lot more excellent posts from others. With people potentially able, more often, to grow through the writing as much as the reading.
I often look back and wonder with posts, could I have said this or that better or more clearly? In general, writing the last one got me thinking about a huge block to a peaceful free-energy culture, which is our level of ability to grow our sentience and sustain it at much higher levels. So much of the world’s consumer culture is aimed at appealing to and preoccupying our survival instincts. What some people call the lower chakras. But no matter what you call it, essentially it comes down to survival mode. Centred around feeding, competing and the ‘skill set’ surrounding procreation. Provoking our fears and marking our boundaries to such a degree that we don’t even notice it anymore.
In part of my work over the years I’ve stood back more than once and seen the ego at play, both mine and other people’s. The ego stepping up to hone its sense of self and mark its territory. When I was young I remember seeing it everywhere and thinking it was like a muscle I needed to learn to flex more in order to speak a language that people in a position to help me would understand. I already had the makings of one, due in part to an upbringing that included violence, manipulation and other joys. So I tried it (flexing the ego) and it worked. Certain types of people will take you more ‘seriously’ and see you as a ‘contender.’ But it gets pretty boring. It’s like a dense, heavy energy. The difference between being fuelled by ego and by purer spirit perhaps being like comparing a towering bronze sculpture, gleaming impressively in the midday sun, to a field of rainbows, soaring farther overhead, blending with the element of rain and with the earth. One appears solid, fixed, reliable – but the other has this broader potential to grow, change, interact, and inspire a greater number of souls.
Some times I get frustrated, seeing that the people who got further than I did in terms of recognition and opportunity were often people who had honed that ego muscle. But it’s an interesting quandary at times, because it nudges me to ask what is truly of value to me. Knowing all things are possible, it also reminds me to look at the alternative route, taken by people who were more successful based purely on their extraordinary talent and dedication to that talent. Those people seem rarer, but they exist. And I take solace in knowing that better (more talented) people than myself are out there, living that path successfully, and breathing that imprint into the collective consciousness. Even some of those people however, have to turn a blind eye to some of the darker practices around them in the industries, in order to participate. They are forced to compromise a part of themselves, in order to contribute their gifts. It’s the price you might be called to pay, with the justification that it enables your work to reach the purer souls, beyond the sullied realm of the industry ‘gatekeepers,’ so your work can make its offering. So it often is, in a world of scarcity.
When I look at the people who are pioneering FE efforts, including some of the ones I mentioned in my last post, it can press on my mind what those people have to go through. Having their livelihoods and/or their families’ lives threatened, their work stolen, even exotic weaponry aimed at them to affect their physical and mental health. It is an insane environment. And to add to it, most people don’t even have a clue what those individuals' paths entail and the grave consequences of their pursuit. How to walk a path like that without the ego stepping in to mess with our wiring - at times like a fierce hammer, at others like a river of distraction, underground - is beyond me.
It also reminds me of the stories I hear, of souls who have achieved remarkable, unusual feats, or been dragged through several layers of hell, then choose to live in seclusion away from most people because the world and culture that most of us share offers little resonance with their unique experience.
I recently met someone who could move elements, like fire and air, with their psychic energy. A gentle soul, but with an inner strength. A healer also. On a path closer towards what Wade would term a level 19. They were on the lookout for schools for these kinds of ability. It was a reminder to me how isolated many of these kinds of extraordinary people are. Even more so in some ways than the prominent pioneers of FE machines / disclosure. For both camps there is all sorts of human muck to navigate, from petty jealousy to mercenary sabotage. And yet – being around someone like that (the psychic I mentioned), and others like them, was deeply healing. A beautiful reminder of our incredible abilities, which even this person claimed were abilities we all share.
I think some souls, perhaps due to being more mature, perhaps due to DNA, or to the places and ’families’ their souls have travelled through and from, have much more immediate access to those abilities. Not everyone is so clearly connected with their skills. It reminds me of something I heard Michael Tsarion say in a video recently (said by many others too, obviously) that souls of light often have a tendency to project that light onto others. I’m not referring to the psychic who I mentioned above. It’s more a general note, as I look within, about how that hunger for like minds can lead to projection. It reminds me also of something James Gilliland has said, also said in many ways by many others – that in looking at the field of Ufology and FE, specifically if we are looking at or for leaders, we should look not just at how people act around their audience, but how they treat people day to day behind the scenes.
It raises questions for me about how we navigate those waters, in ourselves and around us, on this FE path to ‘heaven on earth’ and of course beyond. Beyond in this lifetime and set of dimensions, as we travel within and without our bodies through the blending realms – and beyond as the body dies and our souls move on. It’s a tricky path. Balancing the ego that is provoked by a cut-throat culture, and the spirit that guides us to step outside its parameters. Stepping back and forth between the world we aim to heal, and the new ones that we look to build.
All things are possible, though some seem at any given time more likely than others. But they exist, ready to be drawn into our 3D reality from the sea of all other dimensions. Including what seems like the miracle of changing this world into a peaceful free energy culture.
I made this little montage a while back. Perhaps not my best, but it was fun to make as it channelled my creative juice into a field of higher potential.
https://i.imgur.com/0PHk5Wa.jpg
In the background to the left, there is an array of buildings. Centres for community learning and healing. Vast ships, some made up of individuals’ ships that join together for gatherings. To the right in the middle distance, hovering over an ancient portal, is a platform with inter-dimensional gates where travellers and smaller ships can land. In the foreground, a group of children of different ages and races have created a school and a class to assist one another in learning about historic perspectives on geometry and various dimensions. They discuss mathematics and physics in the same context as the soul and divine spirit. They create art and inspiration with a fusion of mindful intellect and a soulful connection to a collective unconscious. They build and utilise advanced machines, always with reverence for the technology of their own bodies and the magnificent systems of the planet’s interconnected flora and the wider cosmos. They are at home in their use of psychic skill - manifesting and communicating through the shimmer of the ether. Some have formed a group, amplifying their intent together, creating an orb of energy that glows above their circle. Experimenting with light, and in unison. Two of the children are seated with a lioness and a young cottontail rabbit, who like to mingle with their school.
They truly and deeply love themselves, and each other, in benign ways that many of us have yet to learn, but are truly capable of.
They appreciate us dearly. In ways we perhaps don’t understand.
They are masters of creation. Learning, sharing, constantly evolving. They imagine the world a place as wild and as deep as their own free souls. As harmonious as the music and the healing power that fills their hearts. And the world becomes that place. A radiant place. Blessed with untold and infinite treasure.
I like to imagine it. It feels real to me.
Much love to all

Hi:
Melinda, that was as about as keenly insightful as you have written (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1156620&viewfull=1#post1156620), and that is saying something. Where to begin on that? Yes indeed, the free energy playing field is beyond insane. It is surreal, from the actual technology that exists (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#underground), to aspirants declaring themselves the Messiah (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#messiah) and Second Coming (http://ahealedplanet.net/conun.htm#grandeur), to the crazed reactions (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level1) that people have to the idea of free energy, to swarming billionaires and media and government attacks (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#deputy), to the betrayals of aspirants by their friends, families, and allies (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#allies), to the many forms of organized suppression (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#levels1), including Godzilla’s evil bag of tricks (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#bearden). There is nothing else like it on Earth, especially since much of the existing technology was developed from reverse-engineering captured ET craft. How can anybody last on that playing field for long? When Dennis went into Bible-banging mode, or Brian brought out Lapis Pig, or Greer began flexing his biceps, they were showing their human sides (http://ahealedplanet.net/dennis.htm#libel) and how they have coped. Everybody’s ego is challenged who steps on that stage. Brian’s life was shortened (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#attack), Dennis should be dead dozens of times over, and Greer was never the same after those untimely deaths around him that he barely survived (http://ahealedplanet.net/journey.htm#adamiak). Little about that milieu is “normal.”
I have read plenty of mystical material that stated that humanity has become ego-bound, and that was not the original intent. The ego was “invented” as a way to help incarnating souls focus on the physical plane, to stay rooted in their bodies, but in a world of scarcity, fear (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#coming), and survival, the ego comes on too strong and dominates, and “soul perceptions” are few and far between. In the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5), humanity’s collective ego will have an unprecedented opportunity to let the soul help steer.
Yes, for those who have been through the meat grinder or glimpsed the divine (such as NDE experiencers (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#nde) often do), it is nearly impossible to relate their experiences to the cubicle-dwellers, TV watchers, and Internet surfers, so they often go hermit. I am of the hermit archetype. I want deep, meaningful interaction or none at all. Social chatter and the like is not my forte, and the standard social environment is not the place to engage in Wade’s World discussions.
Yes, raising our awareness above the usual survival/addiction/gossip memes, and keeping it there, is not easy. Only a hardy few (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialcircle) are willing and capable of doing it today, and they are going very much against the flow to do that. Yes, a level 19 today (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#level19) is not going to be able to be a very public figure, but in this world (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?32399-A-Future-Earth&p=672748&viewfull=1#post672748), or the Fifth Epoch (that Roads world is in the Fifth Epoch, by the way), they would be cherished by all.
I hope this train of thought also makes clear the Epochal changes that will come with free energy (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#necessity), and why a social approach is not going to work. Great social changes will be the result, not a cause, of the Fifth Epoch. I am getting feedback that these Greer posts (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/97-Steven-Greer-s-Latest-UFO-ET-Disclosure-Effort?p=938&viewfull=1#post938), particularly that last one (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/97-Steven-Greer-s-Latest-UFO-ET-Disclosure-Effort?p=948&viewfull=1#post948), are an attack on him. That is not what I am doing. Earth and humanity hang in the balance (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#spaceshipearth), I know of nobody else on Earth with my particular qualifications, of carrying the spears five different times, and I am into what might have a chance of working. Everything that Greer is doing and advocating I have seen before, and plenty of times.
Somewhere in his writings I recently read, maybe in Unacknowledged, that the key is the masses rising up and “demanding” that the governments and others come forward with the truth, with free energy technology, and the like. I just don’t see it happening that way (the beseeching route (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#beseeching1)), and to the degree that Greer is trying to get that demanding stampede going, I have to shake my head. That is so Fourth Epoch. That is where he and I are on almost opposite ends of the spectrum. He plays the elite/masses game, and I am doing something very different. And that is why, as David wondered (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1155988&viewfull=1#post1155988), Greer is not singing my tune and likely won’t. He needs to make a paradigm shift to embrace what I am doing, and is likely too far down his path to change. He has invested too much of his life in going in the direction that he has. Believe me, he has my respect, sympathy, and even awe, but I don’t see him whipping up that stampede that will storm the ramparts. Dennis tried and tried and tried. But that Greer has even tried puts him in the Pantheon. He has been at it nearly as long as I have, and I know what that long slog is like.
I am always, always, always writing for my target audience, who are not the masses and not the elite, and not really anybody in the free energy field today. I feel a responsibility to make my views clear on what I think has a chance to manifest the biggest event in the human journey, and why. Showing what has not worked (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#approaches), and why, is one way to lead to the idea of what might work. That is how I got there, through a painful process of elimination.
When I see the trappings of Greer’s latest effort, with t-shirts and tote bags, it takes me back. I have memorabilia from Dennis’s attempts, including hats and t-shirts with free energy slogans on them. There is nothing that Greer is doing that I have not seen before or advocated myself. His open-sourcing and transparency (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#utopia) ideas are steps in the right direction, and when I saw Greer finally do that, I knew that he was learning. Will he learn enough fast enough? He has my best wishes to, but he has a deep rut to escape before he can.
Best,
Wade

Hi:
The Third Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal3) lasted about ten thousand years before the Fourth Epoch began, it was made possible by the domestication of plants (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#kebaran) and animals (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#goat), and humans were domesticated, too. Humans took an active hand in evolution by selective breeding of plants and animals. The first part of Darwin’s Origin of Species focused on the changes that humans created with domestication. The Epochs all went through their arcs of “development,” but the new energy sources made those arcs possible. Because aboriginal Australians could never hunt kangaroos to extinction (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/96-Human-sociality-and-free-energy?p=932&viewfull=1#post932), although there were many candidates for plant domestication, Australians never domesticated them and stayed in the Second Epoch until the invasion of the initial Fourth Epoch people (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#tasmania).
The Third Epoch had its phases (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/96-Human-sociality-and-free-energy?p=936&viewfull=1#post936), and different parts of the world went through them at different times, and as with Australian aborigines, places such as the New Guinea highlands stayed “stuck” at the village level. But whenever agrarian cultures were amenable to it, civilization appeared (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#agciv) after a few thousand years of domestication. Many features of Third Epoch societies simply were not possible in Second Epoch societies, such as metallurgy, literacy, professions, elites, cities, and the like. A Second Epoch human could not imagine (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#imagine3) what a Third Epoch society would look like.
The rise of Europe (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal35) has been a matter of scholarly debate for centuries, but first and foremost, Europe rode an energy wave. The Medieval Warm Period (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#wmp1), after centuries of recovery from the Roman devastation (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#wmp1), began the trajectory to the High Middle Ages (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#hma), and waterpower became widespread (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#watermill1) for the first time in the human journey. Harnessed waterpower performed the work of millions of people in Europe. The reintroduction of the ancient Greek teachings (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#toledo) also spurred intellectual growth in Europe. Far too often, the technological advances of the time were used for warfare (http://ahealedplanet.net/roots.htm#livingry), and in the calamitous 1300s, when the Medieval Warm Period gave way to the Little Ice Age (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#famines), Europe became a hell on Earth. However, in the late 1300s, in Italy’s city-states, the Renaissance (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#renaissance) began and the humanism that those Greek teachings began flowered, and the rise of science (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#sciencerise) was not far behind.
The grip of the religious monopoly was challenged, partly though the printing press and expansion of literacy, and as Northern Europe began battling against the religious hegemony of the Catholic Church, it also began to conquer the world, as it accomplished the feat of turning the world’s ocean into a low-energy transportation lane (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#sailboat2). Technological advances to capture more energy were the keys to European dominance. One isolated and relatively backwards island people came a little late to the commerce and conquest game. Their rise was constrained by deforestation (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#domesday), just as with other Third Epoch civilizations, but a confluence of circumstances led them to embrace coal energy (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#eleanor). In the early 1700s, English inventors not only found a way to smelt metal with coal (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#coke), but they began to build coal-powered machines (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#steamengine1), and the Fourth Epoch thus began. We still live in that Epoch.
As with the previous Epochs, an English peasant in 1500 could not have imagined (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#imagine4) what the Fourth Epoch looked like. And as with the Third Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/96-Human-sociality-and-free-energy?p=936&viewfull=1#post936), the Fourth Epoch has had its phases, but they were all dependent on the level of energy use (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochaltable). While the Third Epoch was powered by wood and food, the Fourth Epoch was powered by fossil fuel energy, and with unprecedented use of wind and water power in the transition. After a century and a half of the rise of coal, the technical ability to exploit a new fossil fuel, oil, arrived, and soon afterward, the technical prowess to transmit that energy generated by fossil fuels via electricity arrived.
While literacy and mathematics were Third Epoch achievements, as well as the beginnings of what could be called a scientific approach, it flowered in the Fourth Epoch. The energy surplus of industrialization allowed, for the first time in the human journey, the majority of the population to be relieved of subsistence duties. More than anything else, that led to the advances of the Fourth Epoch, and the social transformations were radical. Slavery had been a hallowed institution for all of recorded history (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#slaverybeginning), and as machines began replacing people, slave labor no longer made economic sense (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#southseas), and only then was it seen as a barbaric institution. Similarly, with the rise of civilization, women’s status universally declined from that brief period of horticultural bliss (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#patrilineal1), and only when machines began replacing people, and the strong backs of peasants were no longer needed, were women relieved of their broodmare status (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#demographic).
The Fourth Epoch is very young, only three centuries old, so we still see many transition effects, particularly since more than 80% of humanity still lives in the Third Epoch, with Fourth Epoch technologies, ideologies, and practices trickling in. There simply is not enough fossil fuel for all of humanity to industrialize, and we are quickly running out (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#peakoil) of the Fourth Epoch’s fuel sources. The Third Epoch saw all early civilizations collapse as they ran out of energy (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#collapse). The collapse of Fourth Epoch civilizations would be horrific to behold, even species-threatening, but we are dancing on the edge of that today (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#spaceshipearth).
Just in my lifetime, I have witnessed women enjoy professional opportunities denied them only a couple of generations ago. Racism is under siege (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#racism). Because of the agrarian roots of the USA, and North America’s low population compared to the Old World, we still have the Bible Belt and other holdovers from the Third Epoch, but as with racism, those practices are under siege, and we see cultural battles between the Epochs happening today. The practices of the former Epochs always lost, in the end, based on those lower energy levels as they were. The practices of one Epoch often made no sense anymore in the succeeding Epoch.
Even though the Fourth Epoch is only three centuries old and still having its transition pains, the energy source to power the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5) is already here (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#underground). As with the other Epochs, the Fifth Epoch is currently unimaginable (http://ahealedplanet.net/scarcity.htm) to Fourth Epoch peoples, with very few exceptions. For the first time in the human journey, some of us can see what the new Epoch’s arrival will mean (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#immediate), and the economic, political, social, and cognitive changes (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#cognitive) will be so dramatic that they will end the world as we know it.

Hi:
I took the wife hiking yesterday. That is as good as my life gets. The fat old man can still get up the mountains. :) So, no Avalon post yesterday. I took her the same place that I went last year at the same time (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1072648&viewfull=1#post1072648). In fact, as I looked at the dates on the photos, it was same day of the year. I did not plan it that way.

Hi:
As I began this series of posts (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/96-Human-sociality-and-free-energy?p=925&viewfull=1#post925) with, sociality is an evolutionary adaptation (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialreason) that enhances species survival. The Hidden Life of Trees (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page6?p=781&viewfull=1#post781) shows how trees are social and form communities, and they feed and protect their offspring. Social animals have all manner of behavior to form and regulate their societies, and all manner of biological changes have happened as part of social adaptation. Hive insects have very specialized roles for the members of their societies, such as a queen and drones being the only ones who engage in reproduction, with specialists who care for the offspring. The rise of hive insects (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#flowers2) was dependent on the new energy source provided by flowering plants (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#flowers), which may have evolved from the browsing pressure of dinosaurs.
Societies of the same species can fight each other, vying for dominance and survival, and territoriality (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#territoriality) is common. Simians are highly social, and monkeys engage in crude forms of politics that have been called Machiavellian (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#rhesus1), which can be lethal. Apes engage in more sophisticated forms of politics, which reached its peak in chimps. Ape dimorphism is thought to result from sexual selection, which favored bigger, stronger males in their fight for survival and mating privileges. That evolutionary legacy is still reflected in humanity.
While chimps have murderous and even genocidal politics (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#coalitionary), when gorillas left the range and isolated some chimps, their food supply doubled (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#bonobo1), females came to dominate, and they became the most peaceful apes of all, more peaceful than any human society has ever been, with no record of a violent death. Without that economic windfall, the bonobos’ reengineering of their societies would not have happened. After a career spent studying chimps, Frans de Waal put their social intelligence on par with humanity’s (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/96-Human-sociality-and-free-energy?p=928&viewfull=1#post928). The limbic system and related brain matter is the same size for both humans and chimps. Human emotional development is no more advanced than a chimp’s. Humans excel in the areas of logic and toolmaking, and one hypothesis relating to human brain size (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#chimpbrain) is that it evolved to better navigate the human social environment, and the other uses were a “bonus,” which is a standard evolutionary situation (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#dualuse).
The path between the human/chimp split (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#chimpsplit) and humanity is rich in controversy, and there is speculation that such intermediate species might have had social organization like macaques and even bonobos, but it appears that australopiths and Neanderthals were patrilocal (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#patrilineal1), which continued all the way back to gorillas. Were there any bonobo-like societies on the path to humanity from chimps? Maybe, but when Homo erectus appeared on the evolutionary scene (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#homoerectus), the path saw an increase in reliance on hunting (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#hunter1) and strength, which was the male province. If there were any bonobo-like times on that journey to humanity, they likely did not last long.
There is evidence of professional butchery 400,000 years ago (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/96-Human-sociality-and-free-energy?p=931&viewfull=1#post931), which likely means that the social organization of human hunter-gatherer bands in the Second Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal2) were either established or well on their way to it by then. In those bands, men were kept in line, with no man allowed to dominate, as there was not the energy surplus to afford it. The late Second Epoch is also the most violent period of the human journey (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/96-Human-sociality-and-free-energy?p=933&viewfull=1#post933), with a third of all men dying violently, which is less than the half of male chimps dying violently, so we might say that there was some “progress.”
Humans have never attained the zero-violent-death ideal that bonobos achieved, but where the easy meat had been hunted to extinction (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page7?p=873&viewfull=1#post873) and the climate was conducive to it (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#kebaran), women domesticated plants, their status rose enough so that those cultures became matrilocal, broke up the male gangs, and those are humanity’s most peaceful preindustrial cultures. There was a brief Golden Age of the Hunter Gatherer (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#huntergatherer), until the easy meat was rendered extinct, but it was short-lived, and as that easy meat went extinct, fierce territoriality reappeared and it got violent again.
Where agriculture led to civilization, women’s status universally declined (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#womenstatus1), as they became the broodmares of agrarian societies, and it did not rise again until the Industrial Revolution (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#demographic). The differences between societies in each Epoch were far smaller than the similarities (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#up3). The differences between the Epochs were the important ones, and they were all dependent on each Epoch’s surplus energy (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochaltable). Without the great increase in surplus energy over the previous Epoch, the succeeding Epoch would not have happened. I doubt that I can overemphasize that, especially when that reality is rarely discussed on Earth today, and people think that reshuffling the deck of scarcity (http://ahealedplanet.net/roots.htm#politics) is meaningful. It is only meaningful on an egocentric level, or how one in-group prospers at the expense of another (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ingroup1). There is nothing new about that, and it goes all the way back to the beginnings of sociality.
I also cannot overemphasize that the social changes of each Epoch were a result of them, not a cause. A Karl Marx (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#marx1) would not have written his work in the Third Epoch. He couldn’t have. Nobody even challenged slavery as an institution (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#southseas) until the Industrial Revolution began. That burgeoning proletariat of peasants severed from the land, forming the workforce of the Industrial Revolution, did not exist until the Industrial Revolution. In 1500 England, enslaving strangers found in the countryside was standard practice.
Each Epoch had social regulation that was germane to the Epoch, which made no economic sense in another. A new Epoch never happened by some change in social organization. The social organization changed as a result of the Epoch, which is partly why Marxism never really succeeded. The Fourth Epoch is still based on scarcity, for all of its seeming advances. Marxism and capitalism are merely different ways of slicing up the scarce economic pie, and in a world of scarcity, greed rules (http://ahealedplanet.net/intro.htm#greed). Greed is a big reason why all free energy efforts to date have failed (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#approaches), on both the side of the organized suppression (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#levels1) and the aspirants (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#greed).
The Fourth Epoch’s social changes were more radical in ways than the Third’s, which were more radical than the Second’s. While slaves and women were liberated (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#demographic), the nature of elites changed. No longer did elites claim divine status (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#divinity), abetted by the priesthood (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#dancing1), particularly as the agrarian religions of the Third Epoch lost their sway. The Fourth Epoch’s elites were those who amassed huge fortunes by controlling Fourth Epoch economies. Uncle Noam’s (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#chomsky) work has been very illuminating in this regard. The English Civil Wars in the 1600s, as usual, came relatively late in Europe, beginning in the 1640s, as a century in warfare (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm#colonialism) in Continental Europe was coming to an end, culminating in the devastating Thirty Years’ War (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm#thirty), in which the Catholic Church permanently lost its dominance in Northern Europe. When the English Civil Wars ended (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#fathers), the power of English royalty was permanently reduced, and as naked violence became obsolete as a means of elite control over the masses, controlling what people thought became an English specialty, which its eventual offspring, the USA, took to unprecedented levels. It is no coincidence that dystopian novels such as 1984 (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#orwell) and Brave New World (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brave_New_World) were written by English authors who saw where English and American brainwashing techniques were headed.
By the early 20th century, great fortunes had been amassed by the Robber Barons, led by John D. Rockefeller (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#rockefeller1), history’s first billionaire, who made it by monopolizing the great new energy source, oil. His unethical and criminal business tactics were legendary, and he soon engaged in the charade of “philanthropy (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#philanthropy).” After his strikebreakers machine-gunned striking coal miners (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ludlow), and killed women and children in the process, Rockefeller’s public image was at about Genghis Khan’s level (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#mongol), so he hired a rival Robber Baron’s (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#morgan) publicist and the era of public relations began. One of that publicist’s stratagems was that Rockefeller carry around a bag of dimes and give one to everybody that he met, in those grotesque early days of public relations. It soon gave way to scientific methods of managing the public mind, as exemplified by Edward Bernays (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#bernays), who wrote a book titled Propaganda, but with a positive technical meaning, of getting the unwashed masses to believe what was good for them. Among Bernays’s triumphs were helping addict American women to tobacco (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#bernays) and helping perform the makeover (http://ahealedplanet.net/fluoride.htm#bernays) of a brain-damaging (http://ahealedplanet.net/fluoride.htm#harold) toxic industrial waste into “medicine,” which is added to America’s water supply to this day.
Those are not bygone days (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#rockefeller2). My former partner heard from David Rockefeller (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page13?p=888&viewfull=1#post888) just before another government/media attack came, and that time, my partner was run out of the USA. The American media (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#big) is little more than an industry devoted to brainwashing, but as history’s most sophisticated incarnation of the practice, its victims think that they are getting the “news,” education (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#more), and the like. The American people are a huge, socialized herd, worshipping a flag (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#flag) and engaging in other inanities that make Mao’s social control practices seem tame.
But that all pales next to history’s greatest cover-up (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#big), whose primary upshot is that the technologies to usher humanity into the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5) are already here (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#underground). That is where the work of Steven Greer (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/97-Steven-Greer-s-Latest-UFO-ET-Disclosure-Effort?p=938&viewfull=1#post938) and the few others like him is salutary. One of the other upshots of those sequestered technologies is that even the West’s vaunted science and technology is as primitive as a caveman’s club compared to what those technologies reveal. Today’s physics textbooks might make good doorstops, if and when those technologies come into the light of public awareness.
As with the other Epochs (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#imagine), sociality in the Fifth Epoch will look unrecognizable to people in the Fourth. Many aspects of the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#immediate) will be unrecognizable to people of the Fourth. For one thing, elites will cease to exist (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#elitedisappear), which is why they have been so actively suppressing those Epochal technologies (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#make). It will be Game Over for elites in the Fifth Epoch, and they know it, and the worst of them would rather destroy Earth (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#mars) than lose their power over humanity.
The vast majority of humanity has easily been brainwashed by the population control practices of the Fourth Epoch, with exceedingly few awakening beyond their conditioning (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=309&viewfull=1#post309), not far removed from how Neo awoke in The Matrix (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Matrix) after taking the red pill (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_pill_and_blue_pill). Almost nobody on Earth today has what it takes (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=308&viewfull=1#post308) to take the red pill, which is why the social approach to initiating the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialcircle) is highly unlikely to work, which is why I doubt that approaches such as Greer’s have a prayer of success. But not all is lost. A path of love and sentience might have a chance, which is what I am trying to find out (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir).

Hi:
I might make one more sociality post (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/96-Human-sociality-and-free-energy?p=925&viewfull=1#post925), to finish it off for now (and perhaps discuss what sociality could look like in the Fifth Epoch), but I want to do something that I have not quite done before, and sketch out what science, technology, and spirituality might look like in the Fifth Epoch. That heavenly Roads world (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?32399-A-Future-Earth&p=672748&viewfull=1#post672748) has long been one of the stars that I steer by. In that world, somebody like me has lower-than-average intelligence, and what I spent a lifetime learning, the average child learns in a week or two. That world’s technologies are supremely harmonious with all life, and either humans developed the ability to interact with the consciousness of plants and animals, or the humans in that world raised up plant and animal consciousness to levels far above today’s. Either possibility, or both, is astounding.
That reality obviously enjoyed free energy technology (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?32399-A-Future-Earth&p=673081&viewfull=1#post673081), and it had leapt far beyond the solid-state technology that Sparky Sweet developed (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ideal) or what my friend saw (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#underground). As Roads’s mentor stated, love made it all possible. That hellish world (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?32399-A-Future-Earth&p=672115&viewfull=1#post672115) was also technologically advanced, but it made Blade Runner’s LA appear heavenly in contrast, and the people there obviously did not live in abundance, but in carefully contrived scarcity and misery.
Those children who greeted Roads in that heavenly world had spiritual perceptions far beyond those of people today, and telepathy was likely a normal part of life. Even calling it “spiritual” is limiting, as is calling their practices “science,” as neither one resembles today’s versions of them very closely. What is today called New Age (http://ahealedplanet.net/purpose.htm#newage) spirituality is but a hint of what kinds of spiritual practices abound there.
One aspect of what is happening on Earth today, which is not the case in that heavenly Roads world, is that what we call lower astral beings actively encourage Godzilla (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc) and friends, and they do what they can to thwart people such as Dennis, Greer, Brian, me (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#adventures), etc. They can petition to make our karma due and payable immediately, and other tricks, which can help knock us off the rails. In that heavenly Roads world, they could not have any influence, even if they wanted to.
Here is an example of today’s science that will become like cave drawings in the Fifth Epoch. The wave/particle duality (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#vonneumann) of photons and subatomic particles is likely related to the zero-point field (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#zpf), as interdimensional energy is what sustains the field, and that wave/particle duality reflects that interdimensional nature. In Greer’s latest book (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/97-Steven-Greer-s-Latest-UFO-ET-Disclosure-Effort?p=938&viewfull=1#post938), he described captured ET energy technology that looked like a plate of glass that you could hold in your hand, and it could power a flashlight or a city. It is obviously tapping that invisible energy source. Those paradoxes will be resolved in the Fifth Epoch.
Science in the Fifth Epoch will have some resemblance to today’s, and hypotheses and testing (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#theories) will still likely have its place, but the big revolution will hinge on ending the denial of the abilities of consciousness that is a matter of faith in today’s materialistic science. Materialism (http://ahealedplanet.net/conun.htm#subtle) is a religion, and it will go the way of all of today’s religions (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#religion). They will all be discarded as primitive. What only today’s spiritual masters achieve will be normal in the Fifth Epoch, such as Andra’s abilities (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/8-Visions-of-Potential-Futures?p=101&viewfull=1#post101).
Is all of that going to happen overnight, or even in my lifetime? No. But the Fifth Epochal Event is going to open the door to it. When scarcity and fear (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#coming) are no longer the constant background hum of our reality, the human potential is going to flower in ways that are scarcely imaginable today.

Hi:
This thread (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet) hits two million views in a few hours, if that. Mostly bot traffic, but enough humans. Between this thread and my forum (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/forum.php), there are usually at least 50 people at once reading, with 60 as I write this. My site traffic has doubled this year, and I had nearly 30,000 views of my big essay last month, for reasons unknown. It is usually around 5,000 or so. We’ll see if any singers come out of that. I’ll take one. :)

Hi:
I’ll try to wrap up these sociality posts (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/96-Human-sociality-and-free-energy?p=925&viewfull=1#post925) for now, and as I did yesterday on what the science and spirituality (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/98-Science-and-spirituality-in-the-Fifth-Epoch) changes might be in the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5), here is one on the possible changes in sociality. Some I consider very likely, and some are a bit more speculative, aspirational, and long-term, as the arc of the Epoch progresses, as it did for the prior Epochs (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/96-Human-sociality-and-free-energy?p=950&viewfull=1#post950). As the sociality in each Epoch was radically different from what came before, for this most epochal of Epochal Events (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochaltable), the social changes should be comparably Epochal.
Again, as I learned the hard way over many years, more than 99% of humanity currently reacts to the idea of free energy with denial (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level1) and fear (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level5), and won’t begin to understand until free energy is a daily reality (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#brink). That is how it was for all Epochs (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#imagine), and there is no use to judging humanity (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#judge1) for where it resides today on this issue. This post is about what happens on the other side of that hump, when and if humanity gets over it.
With free energy comes true economic abundance (http://ahealedplanet.net/abund.htm#abundance) for the first time in the human journey. No brief Golden Age (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#goldenages) until the new energy source gets exhausted, no relative abundance for a fortunate few, while the rest toil on the brink of survival. When humanity enjoys abundant and clean energy for the first time, what is going come with it, socially? Scarcity and fear as organizing principles, with in-groups (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ingroup) and out-groups (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ingroup1) battling over scarce resources, should vanish. We are all behaviorally modern (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#leap), and the seeming differences in humanity today are merely their adaptations to their economic situations.
The nuclear family (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#family) will likely become obsolete in the Fifth Epoch. Women are not going to be economically dependent on providing/protecting men, and sex is going to rarely mean procreation. Humanity will likely become more bonobo-like (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#bonobo1). A mother and her offspring may still be the primary unit of social organization, but that may also change. I am also not referring to bereft mothers and fathers, but something vastly more enlightened, loving, and fun will replace the nuclear family. Some who still want to interact that way will, but it will become just one more option, and it is likely that few will avail themselves of it. The nuclear family may be seen as quaint. Sex, procreation, and child-rearing will become far more flexible in the Fifth Epoch. All children will be raised in loving and safe environments, and will have opportunities that today’s children do not remotely enjoy. In that heavenly Roads world (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?32399-A-Future-Earth&p=672748&viewfull=1#post672748), the average six-year-old is smarter and more informed than anybody on Earth today, and their so-called psychic abilities are far and away more accomplished than virtually anybody’s on Earth today. It will take centuries to get to that level, but in the near-term, I see education as becoming fun for children, not dreary rote exercises and regimentation, and the learning will never end for anybody.
Nations (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#nations) will quickly become obsolete in the Fifth Epoch, as will elites (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#elitedisappear), who were always economic elites above all else. In a world of abundance, economic elites will no longer make any sense, and anybody who tried to play that role would quickly discover how nonsensical it would be, as would everybody around them. The ideas of rich and poor will stop having any meaning. Along with the disappearance of nations will be races (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#race), as geographical isolation will vanish. Also, cities (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#cities) as we know them will become obsolete. Nobody will want to live cheek-by-jowl with their neighbors. Social gatherings will be by choice, not necessity or survival. Celebrity culture will disappear with elites.
One thing that I constantly see is people reacting to the idea of the Fifth Epoch with imagining interstellar wars, universal megalomania, greed (http://ahealedplanet.net/intro.htm#greed) reaching surreal levels, and the like, but I see those ideas as only projections of scarcity and fear onto a situation of abundance. Those are nothing more than fearful fantasies, although I advocate those peacekeeping grandmothers (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#peacekeeping) while they are needed, which should only be a generation or so, until the utter and suicidal stupidity of playing those games becomes obvious to all (like playing Russian Roulette), and people will wonder at how our species could have been so primitive, but they will also realize what scarcity and fear can do to people.
Professions as we know them will likely disappear, especially all of those involved with economic exchange (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#exchange). Nobody will do anything because they have to, but because they want to. I strongly doubt that humanity will become a bunch of hedonistic, obese couch potatoes, like we see in much of the USA today. Most of that seeming hedonism is a brief escape from the misery of their lives, even in history’s richest and most powerful nation, which became so rich and powerful through monstrous crimes (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#english), which continue to this day (http://ahealedplanet.net/intro.htm#progress).
Even though we can see glimpses of what I am describing on Earth today, such as Bill Gates’s relatively modest lifestyle (http://ahealedplanet.net/lessons.htm#gates) and the erosion of the institution of marriage in the USA, nearly all of what I am describing in this post won’t happen until free energy does (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#necessity). I constantly see scientifically illiterate New Agers (http://ahealedplanet.net/purpose.htm#newage) and others advocate abundance ideas, but their “solutions” are bereft of realistic ideas for making it happen, like thinking that humanity could go to the Moon with hay-powered rockets. Sociality has always been an adaptive response to energy availability, and it won’t be any different this time.
I know that more than 30 years of imagining what free energy can mean is only scratching the surface. I can no more predict all of the changes in the Fifth Epoch than an English peasant in 1500 (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#imagine4) could predict my life today. But the exercise can be a fun and productive one.

Hi:
I was driven out of my sleep to write this one. I was dreaming/thinking about my mother, in a state where the barrier between dreaming and wakefulness was blurred. I suppose that it came from a few directions. One is that I am reading one of Uncle Ed’s (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#manufacturing) first political books, on the American atrocities in Vietnam and how the American media treated them, written long before his partnership with Uncle Noam (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#chomsky), and another was a post that has been in the back of my mind for some time.
The bottom line is this: if you are choir material (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation), almost nobody in your life is even capable of understanding what makes you tick, and it usually leads to heartache if you even try to help them understand. My parents raised me to be a Golden Boy (http://ahealedplanet.net/paths.htm#bookworm), and when it came down to it, neither one had the foggiest idea what my motivation was. They were only capable of projecting their self-serving motivation at me, which has nothing to do with intelligence; my father’s IQ was about twice my mother’s (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/70-Distinguishing-the-wheat-from-the-chaff-and-my-life-s-journey?p=102&viewfull=1#post102). It is a matter of the heart.
Those who are going to be choir material are our world’s givers, not takers, and those around them generally do not so much see them as givers, but as suckers. If you are one of those over overgrown Boy or Girl Scouts (http://ahealedplanet.net/paths.htm#scouts), you have had a lifetime of people trying to parasitize you, and they would happily take all that you had until they sucked you dry and moved on to seek their next meal ticket, and if your well ran dry, they would have an indignant sense of entitlement and not the slightest sense of gratitude for what they previously sucked out of you. You eventually had to learn some kind of defense mechanism so that you were not constantly being leeched, and could give at a rate that you could afford. But those that you gave to almost never understood your motivation, and you came to accept it. It did not make you “better” or “worthier” than them. You are just at a different place in your soul’s journey. In our world, such perceptions are not encouraged, and it is not easy to get there and stay, as sliding back into egocentric awareness is easy to do, in a world where vices are turned into virtues (http://ahealedplanet.net/intro.htm#vices).
All of my fellow travelers that I respect have experienced what I am writing about, to one degree or another. This is just the terrain that awaits such people, in a world of scarcity and fear (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#coming), which is partly why I say that making the Fifth Epochal Event (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5) happen will take an unprecedented level of integrity (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page6?p=708&viewfull=1#post708) and sentience (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#sentience1). Relinquishing judgment of humanity’s egocentric tunnel vision (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#judge1) is part of the path of being productive in this Epochal task. Being in that state of judgment is not fun, either. You can only let it go with love (http://ahealedplanet.net/visions.htm#jesus), which will lead to a larger framework of awareness. Again, that is not an easy trick on Earth today, but in the Fifth Epoch, such states will be far easier to attain.

Hi:
Here is the first post of a few on Global Warming (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/90-Global-Warming-Peak-Oil-and-related-topics?p=454&viewfull=1#post454), climate change, and the megafauna extinctions (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#australianmegafauna). It scandalous how many soul-sold scientists (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/90-Global-Warming-Peak-Oil-and-related-topics?p=463&viewfull=1#post463) have joined the fray, as well as the enabling media. It helps to understand the difference between ultimate and proximate causes. The ultimate cause for all geopolitical events in the Middle East is oil, and especially those with Western involvement. Everything else is a sideshow, but on the tenth anniversary of invading Iraq, I could hardly find a Western pundit “analysis” that even mentioned oil (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#ultimate). That is called ignoring the elephant in the room, and hoping that their audience was stupid or gullible or dishonest enough to go along with the charade, or the analysts being that deluded themselves, as they heavily imbibed the propaganda.
One of the most powerful aspects of Uncle Noam and Ed’s work is called “taking them on on their own turf,” which really is the only credible challenge that a scholar or scientist can make. Noam and Ed took on the media’s myth of its “liberal” role in leading the critique of the USA’s invasion of Southeast Asia (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#vietnam1), when it was the furthest thing from the truth. This is how credible challenges to the consensus are done. None of the Global Warming denier or “skeptics” that I ever saw did that kind of work.
It is incontrovertible that carbon dioxide traps infrared radiation (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/90-Global-Warming-Peak-Oil-and-related-topics?p=544&viewfull=1#post544), which will warm any atmosphere. It is also incontrovertible that volcanoes have been the primary contributor to atmospheric carbon dioxide in the carbon cycle (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/90-Global-Warming-Peak-Oil-and-related-topics?p=544&viewfull=1#post544) during Earth’s history. It is also incontrovertible that humanity has impacted the carbon cycle by digging up and burning Earth’s hydrocarbon deposits, which have fueled industrial societies. Those are facts that nobody can rationally dispute, but watch the Global Warming deniers and “skeptics” go at it, and they don’t even pretend to take on those incontrovertible facts, but they try to lead their audiences around them and instead focus on seasonal and regional variation, along with short-term climate fluctuations, as if those are the important variables and measures. Ice the world over has been melting like crazy (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Retreat_of_glaciers_since_1850), beginning in about 1850. That is the incontrovertible measure of Earth’s warming, which coincides with the vast burning of Earth’s hydrocarbon deposits. People who seriously doubt a causal relationship have their heads in the sand.
Any hypothesis that poses different dynamics of Earth’s temperature fluctuations has to take into consideration those incontrovertible dynamics. The Global Warming deniers and “skeptics” almost never do. In order to credibly deny that humanity’s vast venting of carbon dioxide to the atmosphere is not responsible for today’s Global Warming, a scientist would have to begin the analysis with the incontrovertible dynamics, and then come up with countervailing dynamics, such as the Sun’s fluctuating output could countervail the incontrovertible dynamics. I have yet to see any Global Warming denial or “skepticism” efforts do that. Instead, they come up with fringe hypotheses that cosmic rays or solar variation or some other minor variable is the key one, while never mentioning the elephant in the room of the incontrovertible dynamics.
I never bought Global Warming denial and “skepticism” for a second, but as I studied for my big essay and examined the evidence for the icehouse (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#cryogenian) and greenhouse phases of Earth, the paleoscientists found carbon dioxide to be the key variable (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#GEOCARBSULF), with methane being an intermittent variable (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#methane1). In icehouse phases (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#icehouse), the poles were covered in ice, and in greenhouse phases, forests extended nearly to the poles (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#polarcretaceous). In our current ice age (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#cryogenian), the ultimate cause is the declining carbon dioxide levels, with proximate causes of continental and orbital variations. There really is almost no dispute of these dynamics among climate scientists, but the media has often given those fringe voices equal weight in their coverage, and the leading “skeptical” voices all worked for the hydrocarbon interests. The primary upshot of that kind of “theorizing” is deflecting responsibility from humanity, and in the case of those leading disputing scientists, deflecting responsibility from their employers.

Hi:
I am going to go quiet for a few days, and just some odds and ends today. I have written that what the USA did in Southeast Asia rivalled anything that the Nazis did. I may be been too conservative. In one of Uncle Ed’s earliest political books that I am reading, on Vietnam and atrocities, he cited a journalist who saw Vietnam as well as Europe during World War II (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm#toward), who said that what the Americans had done was, “much worse than what the Nazis did to Europe.” I heard enough stories from American soldiers (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm#interrogate) that I don’t doubt it. History’s greatest killing machine was used on a nation of peasants. Nixon even threatened to nuke them, taking a page from his mentor, John Foster Dulles (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#dulles), but somehow the USA is the force of light on Earth. There has been about zero introspection in the American media (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#big) over what the USA did to Southeast Asia. When Uncles Noam and Ed wrote a book on how the USA was reconstructing its imperial ideology after Vietnam, the publishing company that first printed their book (http://ahealedplanet.net/critics.htm#crv) was destroyed by its owner, to prevent the book’s publication. The Nazi book burners probably never went that far. Hitler’s genocidal programs for Eastern Europe were literally inspired by the USA (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#hitler).
I regularly get approached by people who really don’t understand what I am doing, and that is OK. Hardly anybody on Earth will begin to understand (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#brink) until free energy is delivered into their lives. Dennis may well die before he sees any real-world fruit to his efforts, and I may also die before free energy begins to manifest, but that does not mean that I consider my work an exercise in futility. The biggest event in the human journey (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5) is not going to come easily. I have been at this for more than 40 years (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#glimpse), and will be at it for another 30 or more if I am lucky. I am taking an approach never tried before (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir), beginning a conversation that I intend will reach levels never seen before on Earth. It has already been a success. I have begun the idea of a choir. Maybe that is all that I will ever accomplish, and if so, that is fine by me. Others may come along and do a much better job of this than I ever could. The pioneers never have it easy (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#steal).
I have stated before that if I contributed just 0.001% to making free energy happen, that would be fine by me. Humanity may still go over the cliff (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#spaceshipearth), but I sleep at night knowing that I did everything that I could, and I am not nearly finished. It is all gravy from here.
I also am regularly approached by people who try to read my big essay, but it is too difficult for them, largely because they do not have scientific backgrounds. I wrote that essay with the scientifically illiterate in mind. I doubt that people need to be geniuses or scientists to digest that essay, but I don’t kid myself that it is going to be easy. But only people who have digested or are digesting that essay are going to be choir material (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=308&viewfull=1#post308). If Bucky Fuller (http://ahealedplanet.net/roots.htm#fuller) was alive today, he would understand what I am doing, and would likely be doing something like what I am. This is going to start slowly, as anything like this ever has. The first singers will be the hardest to train. There is a lot of work to do.

Hi:
Well, not as quiet as I had planned (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1158834&viewfull=1#post1158834). :) One of the more fascinating aspects of studying Earth’s past is pondering the many faces that Earth has worn (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#globalwarming) over the eons. In the Hadean Eon (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#hadean), a naked human could not have survived a minute, and it is likely that one awesome collision created the Moon. Earth began in an eon of fire, and will likely end in one, billions of years from now. But just before the rise of complex life, Earth was a big ball of ice (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#cryogenian). Many mysteries have yet to be investigated from those times.
During the eon of complex life, climate-change events were responsible for numerous mass extinctions (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#extinctions), but they usually lasted for millions of years, and some of the more abrupt perhaps happened over “only” 50,000 years or so (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#permianextinction), and one of the biggest was primarily due to a bolide event (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#cretaceousextinction), which set the stage for the rise of mammals (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#mammalsdevelop). Some events were created by life, such as those that led to the highest oxygen levels (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#rainforestkaroo) in billions of years. The biggest extinction in the age of mammals (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#icehouse), so far, was due to the transition from a greenhouse Earth to an icehouse Earth, but it took 15 million years to complete. It was anything but abrupt, and when it finished, Earth’s species were adapted to icehouse Earth conditions. There have been no major climate-related extinctions since then, but humanity is on the brink of creating one, by extracting and burning Earth’s hydrocarbon deposits to fuel industrial societies. Humans might turn Earth from icehouse to greenhouse conditions in a few centuries. Compared to the previous climate-change extinctions, this one would happen in the geological blink of an eye. Something that violent may well trigger a mass extinction greater than all the rest, and that is even leaving aside how humanity has hunted species to extinction (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#australianmegafauna) and wiped out their habitats (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#habitat).
We live in awesomely perilous times (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#spaceshipearth), but Establishment mouthpieces can be counted on to see the bright side. Yes, if Global Warming continues to gallop along, Canada and Siberia will become arable, if there are any humans left to farm them. You can read those kinds of commentaries today, in many places, even so-called “progressive,” even free energy (http://ahealedplanet.net/hooked.htm#mallove), venues. It can become surreal to read such blithe prognostications. Surviving the transition to an arable Siberia will be the hard part. Of course, I advocate stopping that all in its tracks (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#immediate), even reversing it, and it would be fun.

Hi:
A few odds and ends on current reading….
I recently finished The Deeper Genome (https://www.amazon.com/Deeper-Genome-there-human-genome/dp/0199688737), and I will be making some epigenetics updates to my big essay. The bottom line is that genetics is far more complicated than initially thought. There was a “Holy Grail” attitude among geneticists as the human genome was being sequenced, as if knowing the DNA code would unlock the mysteries of life. It did not work out that way. It turns out that in a functioning cell, DNA is in a three-dimensional coil, and much if not most of what has been called “junk DNA” serves a regulatory function, i.e., it turns genes on and off. Genes are strands of DNA that serve as blueprints for making proteins, but even some “junk” DNA serves as blueprints for RNA, which is increasingly recognized to have important cellular functions.
It is being increasingly realized that science has barely lifted the lid on genetics, and the proteins that DNA is wrapped around and other aspects of nuclear activity are opening up brand new areas of study. The long-discredited ideas of Lamarck (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jean-Baptiste_Lamarck) are making a comeback, in that it is increasingly looking like the life-experiences of organisms can be passed down to future generations, even when the DNA code has not changed. It is even being hypothesized that epigenetic processes can “try out” a genetic change before making it “final” in the DNA, which flies in the face of the idea that random changes in DNA are how evolution happens.
The author of The Deeper Genome ended his book with observations on the limits of reductionism (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#specialists), and on how understanding how systems operate is where the big horizons of discovery lie. But, like most scientists, his orientation is materialistic (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#mystical1), and one day, materialists are going to realize the limits of their discipline. They think that the meaning of life is in the mechanism, and will one day realize their folly.
I recently read two of Uncle Ed’s earliest political books, which were on the USA’s attacks on Vietnam, which were worse in ways than what the Nazis did to Europe, as genocide was complemented with “scorched Earth” policies of making the land uninhabitable, which not even Hitler contemplated. Ed’s first Vietnam book was published in 1966, and the second in 1970. His first book with Uncle Noam was printed in 1973, but the publisher destroyed the copies (http://ahealedplanet.net/critics.htm#crv) and wiped out his own company to prevent the book’s publication. Ed and Noam have always stood on the high ethical ground of taking to task the polity that they are citizens of, which their critics always ignore/distort as they perform their propaganda and commissar functions. I have studied Noam’s and Ed’s work since 1990, and I have never encountered a rational, honest, and informed critique that challenged their core stance. They are still going at it, with Ed being 92 and Noam 88. Incredible. For those who followed Noam’s and Ed’s work, their basic themes have never wavered, and Ed has taken on the American propaganda regarding our intervention in Yugoslavia (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#yugoslavian), which portrayed the Serbs (close cousins of Russians) as genocidal monsters, while at the same time a genocide was occurring in Africa, inflicted by a client regime run by Paul Kagame (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page3?p=442&viewfull=1#post442), who has been treated in the Western media as a deific figure, not far removed from how Suharto (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#suharto) was during his heyday.
Our media and indoctrination systems effortlessly turn butchers into saints, mass-murdering thieves become heroes (http://ahealedplanet.net/intro.htm#paradigms), and so on. Turning the darkness into the light, and vice versa, is one of the many amazing feats of our system.

Hi:
Those soul-sold scientists (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/90-Global-Warming-Peak-Oil-and-related-topics?p=955&viewfull=1#post955) who deny Global Warming generally work for the hydrocarbon lobby (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/90-Global-Warming-Peak-Oil-and-related-topics?p=463&viewfull=1#post463), in naked conflict of interest. But their message resonates with those who want to deny human responsibility for what is happening, so they can engage in business as usual with a clean conscience. There are also those who just don’t trust scientists at all, and attribute the entire Global Warming issue to some kind of elite conspiracy to tax us or some such plan. Such people are almost invariably scientifically illiterate. The bizarre part of that is that the hydrocarbon companies themselves have sponsored Global Warming “skepticism” in the first place, so it is a twisted conspiracism to have other elites making an issue where none exists, when one of the leading elite cadres has been doing the opposite. Again, the science behind how carbon dioxide warms the atmosphere (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/90-Global-Warming-Peak-Oil-and-related-topics?p=460&viewfull=1#post460) is basic stuff (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/90-Global-Warming-Peak-Oil-and-related-topics?p=544&viewfull=1#post544). Conflict of interest has always been the primary reason for a lying media (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#big), governmental corruption, and the like.
My introduction to the megafauna extinctions was Velikovskian literature (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#velikovsky). I stumbled into the issue while following Carl Sagan’s debunking career (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#velikovsky). I never bought Velikovsky’s hypotheses, but took it seriously enough to immerse myself in the milieu. I believe that the first book by a scientist that I read on the megafauna extinctions was Peter Ward’s (https://www.amazon.com/Call-Distant-Mammoths-Mammals-Disappeared/dp/0387985727). I read it back in 2005, as I was studying for what became my big essay.
I began studying for my big essay in earnest in 2007, and mass extinctions (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#extinctions) were one subject of many that I studied. I also encountered many studies of paleoclimate, and the many faces that Earth has worn over the eons (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/90-Global-Warming-Peak-Oil-and-related-topics/page2?p=957&viewfull=1#post957). I did not engage in those years of study to assess Velikovsky’s hypotheses, among which was a bolide (or near-miss) explanation for the megafauna extinctions, but after those long years of study, I thought about Velikovsky’s work again, and there was almost nothing about it that made any sense, when compared to the scientific evidence, and the megafauna extinctions least of all. The idea that Venus is only a few thousand years old, and that it and Mars had near-misses with Earth and caused events that the Old Testament presents, is ludicrous.
So, the bolide (or near-miss) explanation for the megafauna extinctions made no sense. But I slowly became aware of another camp on the megafauna extinctions, which argues that climate change did it. For me, what sealed the deal was reading the results of DNA studies, which not only showed where humans dispersed from Africa (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#founderexit), but which also had a pretty good idea of when. That map had a nearly perfect fit with the megafauna extinctions. Wherever behaviorally modern humans arrived, the easy meat quickly went extinct, especially in Australia (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#australianmegafauna) and the Americas (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#clovis), in which the megafauna had never seen anything like humans before, so had no fear of them. They developed that wariness in Africa and Eurasia over more than a million years of human-line hunting. Those animals that never saw humans before did not have a chance.
The most successful land mammal before the rise of humans was the elephant family (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#elephantsuccess), and they made it to North America from Africa more than 16 million years ago. When humans finally arrived, the elephant family lived the length and breadth of the Americas, and they all quickly went extinct. The same thing happened with Eurasian mammoths (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gravettian), which were also isolated from the human line, which had not yet developed the skills and tools to live near the ice sheets. But mammoths lived on isolated islands (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#islandrefuges) for thousands of years after their continental cousins were driven to extinction.
There was a major climate-change extinction in the age of mammals (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#icehouse), but it happened over 15 million years and ended 35 million years ago, as a 200-million-year greenhouse Earth phase ended. Earth has been in an ice age (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#quaternary) for the past 2.6 million years, and there were no major extinctions related to the climate changes as the continental ice sheets waxed and waned. But just as humans arrived on the scene, all of Earth’s easy meat went extinct. The elephant-family extinctions in the Americas were only the most spectacular. Horses (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#horse1) and camels (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#camel) evolved in North America and lived there for more than 40 million years, to suddenly go extinct when humans arrived. The litany is a long one, of entire assemblages of large animals that suddenly went extinct when humans arrived.
I slowly became aware of a clique of scientists who argue that the megafauna extinctions were all climate-related (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#climatechange2), most of whom seem to hail from Australia. The Australian megafauna extinctions are the least likely to be climate-related, with no ice sheets and plenty of refugia during the climate changes, especially when Sahul (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Australia_(continent)) was dry during the glacial intervals.
The more I studied the issue, the more untenable a climate change explanation became. It is not as silly as invoking Venus and Mars, but the climate-change explanation is a very thin reed for explaining the megafauna extinctions, especially the Australian megafauna, which had lived in splendid isolation for tens of millions of years and survived the ice age just fine, to all suddenly go extinction when humans arrived, as some kind of coincidence. The only credible part of the climate-change hypothesis is that when the lands went dryer during the glacial phases, the populations of some species likely did decline, at least somewhat, as their habitats became less hospitable. But the major adaptations to an icehouse Earth happened more than 35 million years ago, and the past million years saw a dozen or so glacial intervals (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#iceageeurope1), and at least one greater than the most recent, and the megafauna the world over did just fine, with no extinctions of note. It did not matter what the climate was doing when humans arrived. Earth had never before seen the juggernaut of super-predator humans, and all of Earth’s easy meat was doomed when behaviorally modern humans (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#leap) arrived.
The pattern is so clear, so richly supported, that to argue that anything other than human hunting did it is to risk ridicule, but those Australian scientists churn out their climate-change scientific papers like it comes out of a factory. It kind of gives science a bad name, but no more so than those hydrocarbon lobby shills, and really far less, as those human-agency deniers are arguing for events in the distant past, while climate-change “skepticism” is denying current events that we can do something about.
And as with those climate-change “skeptics,” human-agency skeptics are in the fortunate position of defending their species, their in-group (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ingroup). Those denying human agency in Australia and the Americas may also be defending the ancestors of the indigenous peoples of those continents, but denying the highly likely truth is a weak way to go about it.
The same debate (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#climateneanderthal) surrounds the extinction of our closest cousins, the Neanderthals (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#europeinvasion), but once again, the pattern is so clear that arguing that climate change did in the Neanderthals, or some kind of peaceful disappearance of Neanderthals into Homo sapiens’s gene pool, have to be considered at the outer range of credible hypotheses. Every time that I saw scientists without a vested interest look into the issue, they came away thinking that humans caused all of the megafauna extinctions, including Neanderthals. Of course, humanity’s collective ego does not like owning up to that bloody past of our species, but the truth will set us free.
Scraping around for some other cause, to deflect responsibility from humans, our ultimate in-group, does not seem helpful, and are acts of questionable integrity. I am all for scientific debate, but when conflicts of interest dominate one side of them, it can become a tawdry display.

Hi:
One of the joys of developing a comprehensive perspective (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#developing) is that so many subjects become highly interesting, and following their development can be edifying, and not just to satisfy one’s curiosity, but it can help with what I am doing. For all of its limitations (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#orthodox), today’s science progresses on many fronts, and the various disciplines can interrelate in important ways.
I have been reading Scientific American every month for years, and the sites I regularly hit also help keep me abreast of the latest findings, in many disciplines. Also, I get bombarded by my circles on various topics. One pal is sure to email me on the latest findings in astronomy, another on various fringe topics, especially medicine, another on free energy developments, and so on. I get on distribution lists for which I have no idea how they got my email address. Even though I have tried to pull in my horns and be fairly quiet on the correspondence front, as I concentrate on many important tasks in my life, and I am not getting any younger, I can’t help but hear about the latest findings in many fields, and lately, I have been repeatedly hearing about new fossil finds in Morocco (http://www.telegraph.co.uk/science/2017/06/07/humans-evolved-100000-years-earlier-thought-east-africa-not/) (and here (http://www.smithsonianmag.com/science-nature/humans-evolved-100000-years-earlier-we-thought-180963619/), for instance).
New human-line findings often show that events happened earlier than previously thought, and it is no different with these latest findings. Rather unfortunately, such findings are often delivered with hyperbole, usually directed toward the laity. East Africa, around the horn, has been a hotspot of primate evolution (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#sapiens) for many millions of years, but anybody who has done much study of the subject knows that South Africa has also been a focus of the human past, and there have been great primate and human migrations in and around Africa for many millions of years, going back to the Miocene apes (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#apemigration). During the Middle Stone Age (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#msa), the human line was all over Africa, Europe, and Asia. It is no surprise that today’s Morocco is someplace where human-line remains would be found, and it is far from the first time (http://www.ancestraljourneys.org/earlymediterraneans.shtml). Morocco has been a focus for many years (http://in-africa.org/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/Barton-et-al-2009-QSR-OSL-dating-of-Aterian-levels-at-Dar-es-Soltan-I.pdf). The Mediterranean’s periphery is rich with human-line fossils. South Africa, East Africa, and North Africa all had similar environments, and were all quite amenable to hosting early humans. The African rainforest and Sahara Desert don’t seem to have been auspicious places for human-line evolution, but everyplace else in Africa hosted the human line, at one time or another. The big evolutionary jump in the human line was the appearance of Homo erectus (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#homoerectus) (and the line from chimps to Homo erectus (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#chimpsplit) is also highly important), and everything since then has been relatively minor. As the announcement of that latest finding noted, the evolution of the human brain is the notable aspect of recent human evolution, but it has been that way for the past two million years.
This latest find might indeed push back the appearance of Homo sapiens by a hundred thousand years. It is way too early to make sensational announcements, but those are also common in this field. Africa is full of fossil diggers (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#orrorin), dreaming of the ultimate find. Will this recent find end up pushing back the accepted appearance of Homo sapiens by a hundred thousand years? It could, but new findings such as these are always put to the test, and we will see how it weathers the challenges that are sure to come. I may update my big essay with this finding, which is an example of how I will be updating my big essay until I am too old to do it anymore, as science is always on the move. Interesting times.
Best,
Wade

Hi:
I was traveling last week, picked up some airport reading material, read an article about the migration of vertebrates to land (http://blogs.discovermagazine.com/deadthings/2016/12/05/tetrapod-triumph-solving-mystery-of-first-land-vertebrates/#.WUdQZMaQxHZ), and the current focus on Romer’s Gap (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Romer%27s_gap). What a way to waste time! :) I ended up diving back into it, which is one of the more fascinating times of Earth’s history for me (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#hangenberg). Not only is Romer’s Gap under siege, but so is Peter Ward’s oxygen hypothesis (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#tournasian) for it (1 (https://www.nature.com/articles/s41559-016-0002), 2 (https://www.researchgate.net/publication/283268924_Romer%27s_Gap_revisited_Continental_assemblages_and_ichno-assemblages_from_the_basal_Carboniferous_of_Blue_Beach_Nova_Scotia_Canada)). That is supposed to be how science works. My essay update will include the recent findings. There is quite an opposition among various paleobiologists (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#butterfield) to the idea that oxygen levels had much to do with many key evolutionary events. How much of Ward’s Out of Thin Air (http://www.scienceshelf.com/OutofThinAir.htm) will become a dated relic? Maybe a lot of it will, but I think that oxygen levels will eventually find an important place in paleobiology and evolutionary theory.
Watching the debate and crossfire of scientific papers can be very educational, and is really one of the most important aspects of what I am trying to do, choir-wise (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=313&viewfull=1#post313). Science is arguably more about the questions than the answers. It can be enthralling to watch how scientific questions are raised and pursued, and how the answers lead to evermore questions. Science is ideally a process of discovery. Understanding the process is important, maybe more so than the findings.
Best,

Hi:
I am going to write a series of posts on my media and political studies. They began in earnest (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page7?p=739&viewfull=1#post739) after I had already been radicalized by my days with Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=601&viewfull=1#post601). It is not going to be so much about what I learned, but what the experience was like. I suppose that my questioning the conventional wisdom began when I was 12 and my father “impossibly” reversed his artery disease (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#lessons) by going “health nut.” My mystical awakening at age 16 (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#silva), along with my cultural awakening (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#europe) and energy dreams (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#glimpse), set my future path in ways that I could not have imagined at the time. That voice in my head (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#voice) knew what it was doing, I am almost sad to say. When it led me to Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#voice2), my wild ride began. I have never heard of a story like mine, and even I sometimes have a hard time believing that it happened. I can’t even discuss my journey with my family, as it is so far outside of their sense of reality that they cannot begin to grok it, even for some who saw me live through those events, some who even witnessed some of the most dramatic ones.
When I left my home town in 1990 (http://ahealedplanet.net/lessons.htm#books), with my life shattered, I was ready to learn in ways that I previously had not. Earlier that year, I heard who might have been Uncle Ed (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#manufacturing), promoting the new magazine (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page7?p=734&viewfull=1#post734) that he was the editor of, Lies of our Times (LOOT), and almost immediately after moving to Ohio, I subscribed to it. It was the beginning of my media and political studies, and the first page of my first issue of LOOT is the one that I remember the best, partly because of the “shock” that the world’s most influential publication could lie that baldly (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#loot). If The New York Times could make it up as it went along, which American publication couldn’t?
Uncle Noam (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#chomsky) wrote an article in every issue of LOOT, which has been collected into a book (https://www.amazon.com/Letters-Lexington-Reflections-Noam-Chomsky/dp/0745322700). If you dropped a rock into Noam’s head, I am not sure if it would hit bottom. Even though I was so ready for his message, it took about two years before I really understood what he was writing about. It was such a radical departure from anything else that I ever read that it took years to digest the gist of it. The bottom line with Noam and friends was the high ethical ground that they stood on, which is simply this: “We are all the most responsible for the predictable consequences of our own actions.” It aligned nicely with my mystical experiences and studies (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#research), the gist of which is that our motivation is everything.
What immediately struck me about Uncles Noam, Ed, and Howard (http://ahealedplanet.net/zinn.htm) was the high integrity evident in their work, which was confirmed when I contacted them. They were all among my most gracious correspondents. Just like Jesus’s admonition to remove the logs from their eyes before they look for their neighbors’ splinters, Noam, Ed, and Howard always focused their work on the polity that they were citizens of, the good ol’ USA, as that was where their work could make an impact, not on Soviet, Chinese, or Latin American societies. Howard in particular was refreshingly confessional as he wrote about his World War II experiences, as he later learned that he slaughtered the people he was supposedly saving (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm#justify2). It takes a keen conscience to admit something like that.
Soon after subscribing to LOOT, I saw an ad for Ralph McGehee’s book in it (http://ahealedplanet.net/mcgehee.htm#synopsis), and bought it. Ralph also took the high ethical ground, finally realizing that he was not one of the good guys (http://ahealedplanet.net/mcgehee.htm#saigon), and he devoted the rest of his life to rectifying the situation.
It is not possible for me to overstate the impact of reading that collected body of work. I learned more at their collective knee than I did for any other body of work, and their work was just the beginning. I subscribed to other periodicals, such as Z Magazine (which I have continuously subscribed to since the early 1990s) and Covert Action Information Bulletin (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#covert), which featured articles by Noam and Ralph, and Ed has written an article a month in Z for many years, only slowing down in the past year or so, in his 90s. He is entitled to slow down a little, although he would be the last to admit it.
What hit home for me during those studies was how thoroughly I had been lied to for my entire life, so that I could become an unthinking cog in the imperial machine (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm#business). I read the newspaper every day for 20 years, thinking that I was getting the “news,” and I came to realize that about all that I had digested were Big Lies. I had already learned much of that during my days with Dennis, from the day I met him (http://ahealedplanet.net/COP.htm#news) to when I read that disinformation article (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page5?p=687&viewfull=1#post687) in the LA Times, but the education that those great men provided me deepened and broadened those lessons in ways that I doubt that I could have attained in any other way.
This is only the beginning of what will be a long series of posts.
Best,
Wade

Hi:
One of the greatest lessons that I learned early in my media and political studies was merely an extension of my journey’s greatest lesson, which I learned only a few years previously: personal integrity is the world’s scarcest commodity (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page6?p=708&viewfull=1#post708). As I was learning from Lies of our Times (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#loot), Uncles Noam and Ed, and the like, I mailed one of my early media studies books, Unreliable Sources (https://www.amazon.com/Unreliable-Sources-Guide-Detecting-Media/dp/0818405619), to that childhood friend (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page10?p=824&viewfull=1#post824) who was my staunchest supporter during the Ventura nightmare (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#mr). It only takes a few chapters of a work such as Unreliable Sources to produce great doubt about the media’s “product” that is served to Americans each day. After I sent him the book, our conversation on the media’s lies and distortions lasted all of ten seconds or so, when he acknowledged it and quickly moved on to another topic. The next time we talked, he was parroting the TV news again. Not only that, from that point onward, he constantly challenged my evolving worldview with his TV version of how the world works. His punchlines for conversations were often fantasies of justified violence against the “bad guys,” as if the world was a Hollywood Western. He did that at least 50 times over the next several years.
That went on for several years, until he wrecked our friendship and continued to attack me for years afterward. The last time I saw him, he admonished me for not being an obedient member of the herd, and extolled his virtues of seeking safety in the herd. He grew up across the street from the grammar school that we both attended, named after California’s first genocidist (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#serra), who was literally sainted a couple of years ago (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#saint). My friend is Jewish, of all things, growing up across the street from the California equivalent of Adolf Hitler Grammar School, and never having an inkling of the real story, nor did he want to.
Not long after I sent that friend Unreliable Sources, he called to tell me (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page10?p=825&viewfull=1#post825) of that scrapbook that my mother was taking on tour (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=400492&viewfull=1#post400492), of her employer’s libelous articles about us, telling the story of her son the criminal. I was seeing that our society was more like Huxley’s Brave New World than it was Orwell’s 1984, as the truth was out there and not hard to find, but almost nobody really wanted to know it (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#orwell), as they preferred the comforting fictions provided by the social managers. One day, I was reading Unreliable Sources in the lunchroom at the bank where I was working (where they openly cheered the first Gulf War (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#bank)), and mentioned what I was reading to my boss, who quickly fled, with a disturbed look on his face. I was discovering that nobody really wanted to know the truth, not if it challenged the delusions of their in-group (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ingroup). I began learning those lessons in 1991, and by the 2002 publication of my website, I had pretty much learned my lessons. By the end of the 2004 disaster with NEM (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page11?p=842&viewfull=1#post842), Americans were no longer my target audience. Americans are Earth’s most brainwashed people, and they are willing dupes. They will believe any lie, as long as it guarantees a full belly. Are they really any different from any other people on Earth? Not at the biological level, as we are all behaviorally modern humans (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#leap). It was kind of strange, to immerse myself in the world of “radical” scholarship, to realize that nobody else in my life really wanted to. I have slowly learned that I can only talk about sports and the weather with most people. The rest is off-limits, unless I want to be ostracized.
Best,

Hi Evan (http://educationforum.ipbhost.com/index.php?/topic/23884-steven-greers-latest-ufoet-disclosure-effort/&do=findComment&comment=354821):
Ah yes, images. That is a tough one. Lots of images out there, but what are they, how were they acquired, are they genuine, etc. I doubt that any image is ever going to be “credible” by itself. The better the image (or footage), the more likely that the fabrication suspicion will come into play. What Cooper (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gordon_Cooper#UFO_sightings) and Sheehan (http://educationforum.ipbhost.com/index.php?/topic/23884-steven-greers-latest-ufoet-disclosure-effort/) testified to is highly impressive, but they were unable to produce the images they saw, for obvious reasons. Credible testimony and evidence is the most dangerous combination to keeping up the cover-up, so when those twain meet, the suppression activity goes into overdrive. Evidence has disappeared, as have people, when that deadly duo threatens to come forward. It is very similar to what we have in the free energy field. The good stuff is almost immediately removed from circulation, and what the public generally sees is the chaff that is left over. These are the toughest nuts to crack on Earth.
Thanks for writing,

Hi:
There is almost nothing in my work that I write about from a purely scholarly/scientific perspective, but all subjects are related to my experiences, in one way or another, and my political and media studies were always richly informed by my experiences, from the very beginning.
My first issue of Lies of our Times (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#loot) featured the beginning of the drumbeat to war. During those days, that same TV-parroting friend (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/99-My-Media-and-Political-Studies-What-That-Ride-Was-Like?p=963&viewfull=1#post963) called me in a rage over the Iraqi incubator atrocity story (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#incubator), which was later exposed as a fabrication by a public relations (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ludlow) firm. Bernays (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#bernays) could not have done it any better. All wars begin with Big Lies, especially those waged by the West. It is the nature of the business, and people such as my friend are easily duped into cheering any imperial violence, as long as they are not on the receiving end of it.
Just as my media and political studies began, I had a real-world example rubbed in my face, which led to my first published words (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#jesus). I suffered from trauma after my Ventura days (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#mr), and saw a therapist in the spring/summer of 1991 (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#therapy). Our sessions happened in the shadow of the world’s largest Air Force base, and my therapist was also nauseated by what was happening. He specialized in treating soldiers, I was definitely a candidate for his treatment, and it worked. Just before I finally found a career job in Ohio (http://ahealedplanet.net/trucking.htm#footnotes), after nearly a year of searching, I volunteered at the national conference of a new science organization that I belonged to, and had my fateful introduction to Brian O (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#meet). As I thought about this post, the symmetry of my relationship with Brian hit me for the first time. We met right after the first Gulf War (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#attacking), and he invited me to help found NEM (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#nem) right after the second Gulf War (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#invading). The haunting revelations of Ralph McGehee’s book (http://ahealedplanet.net/mcgehee.htm#synopsis) were also very influential to me in those early days of study, and led to our relationship.
I was diving deeply into many subjects in those days (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page7?p=734&viewfull=1#post734), and becoming a comprehensivist (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#developing) without knowing that that was what I was doing. When I began my next career job, it was 60+-hour weeks for the next two years, so I performed my studies in my “spare” time. They were some of the most fulfilling days of my career, and my years in Ohio were generally happy ones, in those early years of my marriage.
When 1992 arrived, I was working in Columbus, just in time for the celebration of Christopher Columbus’s feat (http://ahealedplanet.net/columbus.htm#introduction). It was right around then that I read for the first time something that questioned just how heroic his feat was, as an early chapter of Howard Zinn’s A People’s History of the United States was devoted to it (http://ahealedplanet.net/columbus.htm#zinn). My deep studies were just beginning. The year 1992 was not only the 500th anniversary of the “discovery” of the New World, but that year saw revisionist works released, and none were more influential to me than David Stannard’s (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page7?p=739&viewfull=1#post739) devastating American Holocaust. That was my big wake-up call on the subject of what Europe’s conquest of Earth was like for those on the receiving end of Europe’s greed and violence. The first century of European intrusion into the Western Hemisphere (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#first) was the greatest demographic catastrophe in the human journey (http://ahealedplanet.net/columbus.htm#genocide), when perhaps 90% of a hemisphere’s population was killed off as a side effect of history’s greatest gold rush (http://ahealedplanet.net/savings.htm#biggest). How on Earth could American historians present those days as some kind of glory story? American ideologists incredibly turned the blackest darkness into a tale of light. Personal integrity being the world’s scarcest commodity (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page6?p=708&viewfull=1#post708) is not something new, but it was one hell of a shock to begin realizing the depth of the lies that I had been raised with. The English/American conquest of North America inspired Hitler’s genocidal programs for Europe (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#hitler), but that bald truth will never play in the USA.
In American Holocaust, I first read that the pious padre that my grammar school was named after (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#serra) might not have been so saintly (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#saint) after all. Very ironically, my wife is a direct descendant of Christopher Columbus (and Coronado (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#coronado)), and ever since the early 1990s, when I visit with in-laws, I often have to sit and listen to talk about the greatness of Spain. Can you imagine me sitting there with a smile and listening to such stuff?
While my years with Dennis were radicalizing, those years of study led to the writings that became my site today. For me, the most amazing part, initially, was how virtually nobody wanted to hear any of it. We have been told Big Lies for our entire lives, and I could hardly find anybody who seemed to care. I learned lessons on how people don’t want their self-serving delusions challenged, even when believing in them means certain death (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#doom), back when I was twelve (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#lessons), but coming to understand the universal belief in easily disproved lies was one hell of an experience.
After moments of disgust with my benighted species, which is typical (http://ahealedplanet.net/journey.htm#disgust), I eventually learned to relinquish my judgment (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#judge1) and simply accept humanity for what it is. People with the right stuff (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=308&viewfull=1#post308) are very few and far between on Earth today (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#numbers). It is just what it is, and railing against it, or believing that it is different, is unproductive at best and disastrous at worst. This is a big reason why I caution free energy newcomers from going out and proselytizing to their social circles (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#socialcircle), but they almost always just have to do it. Nearly invariably, my best pupils come back to me after that experience, sobered, chastened, and willing to begin learning what it is going to take to manifest the biggest event in the human journey (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5).
Best,

Hi:
I want to focus a little on Uncles Noam (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#chomsky) and Ed (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#manufacturing) regarding my media studies. They are the two most influential writers of my media and political studies, and over the years, Ed has been even more influential than Noam. Ed is a better writer than Noam is, and I love Ed’s dry wit. Noam and Ed got their starts in political writing during the Vietnam War. I recently read two of Ed’s earliest Vietnam books (1 (https://www.amazon.com/Atrocities-Vietnam-realities-Edward-Herman/dp/082980188X), 2 (https://www.amazon.com/Americas-Vietnam-policy-strategy-deception/dp/B0006BOZOA)), and his themes can be seen in the first work that he and Noam wrote (https://chomsky.info/counter-revolutionary-violence/), which became a famous case of censorship (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Counter-Revolutionary_Violence:_Bloodbaths_in_Fact_%26_Propaganda#Publishing_history), which I have written about before (http://ahealedplanet.net/critics.htm#crv).
Noam and Ed developed a number of easy-to-understand frameworks for their work, and in their initial writing partnership, they created a framework of “bloodbaths”:
Benign (ones that we don’t care about)
Constructive (ones committed by us or our allies)
Nefarious (ones committed by our enemies)
Mythical (ones attributed to our enemies, but they did not even happen)
Their landmark Manufacturing Consent contained Ed’s propaganda model (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#manufacturing), of how the media is structured to deliver the results that it does, and one aspect of their model is worthy and unworthy victims (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#worthy). A worthy victim is from one of those nefarious or mythical bloodbaths, and an unworthy victim is from one of those benign or constructive ones.
The emphasis that Noam and Ed have always taken is not to debate the reality of those situations, or who the good and bad guys are, but how the American media deals with those situations. For benign bloodbaths, the media can sometimes even get the facts right, because none of their dogs are in the fight.
A constructive bloodbath is one where the American media heartily approves of the bloodbath, such as Suharto’s (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#suharto), and his victims were so unworthy as to be unmentionable, such as the people of East Timor, who were subjected to one of the greatest proportional genocides in the past century, and as the slaughter reached genocidal proportions (using American weapons), the American media was completely silent.
In Manufacturing Consent, Noam and Ed found a tripled example, even better than a paired example, to show their model in action, of the USA in Central America in the 1980s (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#central). The USA supported some of the most evil regimes in the past century, and when one nation overthrew its American puppet in a revolution, we waged a proxy war against them, which led to a big scandal in the USA, as the CIA used drug-running into the USA to finance the support of their mercenaries.
Since Manufacturing Consent, Ed has taken on the same distortions regarding Yugoslavia (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#yugoslavian) and Rwanda (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page3?p=442&viewfull=1#post442), in which the imperial dynamics are alive and well.
It was very educational to read the critiques of Ed’s and Noam’s work. Like anybody sane, when I encountered their radical work, even though I was ready to hear it, I sought out critiques of their work, and that will be a subject for a coming post. I never encountered an honest, rational, and informed critique of their work, at least that tried to invalidate their theses. Similarly, I have yet to receive an honest, rational, and informed critique of my work, which tried to invalidate it. My best critiques came from my allies, as they tried to make my work better. Without their help, my work would have been a lot weaker.
Best,
Wade

Hi:
Before I get to the criticisms of Noam and Ed, I’ll give a relatively benign example of my work that I have seen, to show the fallacy of logic, at best, that has been aimed at Noam and Ed over the years.
My Columbus essay (http://ahealedplanet.net/columbus.htm) is all about the USA’s naming a national holiday after a greedy, mass-murdering, raping (http://ahealedplanet.net/columbus.htm#rape), genocidist. Columbus initiated the greatest demographic catastrophe in the human journey (http://ahealedplanet.net/columbus.htm#genocide), and we celebrate his amazing feat of “discovery.” When I first drafted that essay in 1998, the complete extermination of the Taino was accepted among scientists and scholars. That is one of history’s greatest crimes, and that is the point of my essay. I saw criticisms of my essay by people who claim descent from the Taino. So, if they are right, then Columbus and crew killed off only 99.9% of the Taino, and not 100%? Does that mitigate the crime? While I am sympathetic (http://ahealedplanet.net/columbus.htm#population) to claims of “we survived!”, the point of my essay is not the 0.1% of the Taino who might have survived to produce descendants, but the 99.9% who died, and how such a crime is swept under the carpet so that Columbus’s mighty feat can be celebrated. So, criticisms of my essay, which takes my culture to task, which focus on the victims and how some might have survived, entirely avoids the point to my essay, to argue about issues that really have no bearing on my arguments. The claims of Taino survival are also contentious, and while important to the claimants, really have little bearing on my essay.
From the very beginnings of Noam’s and Ed’s political writings to this day, their focus has always been on the USA and its propaganda and indoctrination systems, not its imperial victims, other than noting how they have suffered and doing what they can to prevent more of them. When they wrote a monograph that highlighted the USA’s imperial ideology and how the media plays its part, it was subjected to one of the most outrageous instances of Western censorship (http://ahealedplanet.net/critics.htm#crv) in my lifetime. It was amazing (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Counter-Revolutionary_Violence:_Bloodbaths_in_Fact_%26_Propaganda#Publishing_history).
When they finally published a pair of books to replace the suppressed monograph (https://chomsky.info/counter-revolutionary-violence/), they devoted one volume to the reconstruction of the USA’s imperial ideology in the wake of its genocide in Southeast Asia, and the book’s largest section was on the treatment of Cambodia. The book was published in 1979, before the West generally knew about the “killing fields” in Cambodia. But, as usual, the focus of that section was not on who the good guys and bad guys were in Cambodia, but on the American media’s treatment of the facts, which Noam and Ed were explicit on (http://ahealedplanet.net/critics.htm#prism). This has been a consistent position that both men have taken for more than 50 years. Their work is about illuminating our system, not anybody else’s, which again puts them on the high ethical ground (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/99-My-Media-and-Political-Studies-What-That-Ride-Was-Like?p=962&viewfull=1#post962).
Virtually without exception, every critique that I have seen of Noam and Ed’s work turns their work on its head, making the case that Noam and Ed have it wrong on who the good guys and bad guys are in the nations that the USA intervenes in, which Noam and Ed have always said is not the point of their work at all. In fact, from Ed’s earliest writings on Vietnam, going back at least to 1965, the entire point of his work is challenging the imperial conceit that the USA uses to intervene in other nations, portraying themselves as the good guys fighting bad guys, as the self-appointed policemen of Earth, spreading and defending freedom. It is the standard imperial conceit. We have no right to be anywhere outside of the USA’s national borders. Chomsky did it regarding Iraq nearly a decade ago, noting that the USA’s rhetoric about “foreign fighters” in Iraq only make sense if the USA assumes that it owns the world (https://chomsky.info/20080101/).
In writing about Cambodia, they could not have been more explicit (http://ahealedplanet.net/critics.htm#error):
“It is a common error, as we have pointed out several times, to interpret opposition to U.S. intervention and aggression as support for the programs of its victims, a useful device for state propagandists but one that often has no basis in fact.”
But Noam’s and Ed’s critics do their best to turn their work on its head, and dishonestly or irrationally (or both) turn Noam and Ed into apologists for the “bad guys” in the nations that we bludgeon. What is true about Noam and Ed’s work is that they point out the USA has consistently supported the most reactionary and violent factions on Earth.
In The Washington Connection and Third World Fascism, Noam and Ed noted that torture had been a historical curiosity for centuries, which largely vanished with Stalin’s death, but had resurged in the “free world,” and that three-quarters of the nations that used torture as standard government practice were client states of the USA (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_and_state_terrorism).
So, the high ethical stance that Noam and Herman take, of criticizing the nation that they are citizens of, is always turned on its head by their critics, and Sophal Ear, for instance, has made a career out of making the case that Cambodia is not in as bad a shape and Noam and Ed asserted, and that Noam and Ed were really closet supporters of the Khmer Rouge, and Ear does it while being an academic in the USA. Here (http://www.flagrancy.net/khmerchomsky.html) is the best analysis that I have seen of Ear and friend’s distortions of Noam and Ed’s work, as they explicitly ignore the thrust of their work while seeking hidden assumptions, and those alleged assumptions have always been false ones, for anybody with the slightest familiarity with Noam and Ed’s work.
I have seen this logical sleight of hand many times, as Noam and Ed’s work is misrepresented by their critics. Ed’s Wikipedia bio (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_S._Herman) is execrable on that score. In Noam’s Wikipedia bio, a side-box was produced, which stated:
“[Chomsky's] become the guru of the new anti-capitalist and Third World movements. They take his views very uncritically; it's part of the Seattle mood – whatever America does is wrong. He confronts orthodoxy but he's becoming a big simplifier. What he can't see is Third World and other regimes that are oppressive and not controlled by America.”
That once again begs the question. Chomsky’s concern as a writer is not oppressive regimes that the USA does not control, but the oppressive regimes that it does. Very basic logic, but his critics can’t seem the wrap their minds around it, no matter how explicit Noam and Ed are. In fact, those critics have always made the imperial assumption that Noam and Ed constantly assail, which is that the USA has the right to intervene anywhere on Earth. Our hands are the dirtiest on Earth, by far. Nobody else comes close.
Best,
Wade

Hi:
Just as my political awakening came through radicalizing experience, without which my subsequent studies would have been of dubious worth, my subsequent media and political studies were always leavened with experience, both for me and my fellow travelers. Here is an example…
One of my friends is a horticulturalist, and he ran the conservatory in Columbus (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Franklin_Park_Conservatory) when the city began planning its big bash to celebrate 1992 (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/99-My-Media-and-Political-Studies-What-That-Ride-Was-Like?p=965&viewfull=1#post965). He was intimately aware of how difficult it was to run a conservatory, being always strapped for funds. When the city began planning for the 1992 bash, they chose his conservatory for the site of the celebration (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AmeriFlora_%2792). The first thing that they did was fire him. To prepare the grounds for the event, they wiped out the plants that were already there. There were venerable old trees on the grounds, but to make the setting “prettier,” they did things such as bury the roots of the trees, which kills them (http://arnoldia.arboretum.harvard.edu/pdf/articles/1989-49-4-tree-roots-facts-and-fallacies.pdf), but the process takes years. It was a plant holocaust, to make way for the Columbus bash. My friend sadly walked through the grounds as a customer of the event, noting the trees that would soon die, where his plants used to live, torn out to make way for the extravaganza, and the like. It was somehow fitting that the celebration of Columbus’s feat would be mounted in that way.

Hi:
I did a little hiking yesterday. Went to the easiest meadow from Seattle, and then bagged a peak (http://www.wta.org/go-hiking/hikes/mount-catherine), and the last bit was truly death defying, in a way that I have not experienced in many years. I want to die in bed. :)
The fat old man is feeling it today, but not too badly. Yesterday was pretty magical, to be in a flowering meadow in June, which is rare up here.

Hi:
One aspect of my political education worth noting is that is the nation I most studied: mine. There were a few reasons for that, which included:
I am an American, and it was not only the easiest for me to study, but it was the most ethical nation to study. While studying the problems in other nations could be worthwhile, as Noam and Ed stressed, it is most ethical to work on resolving the flaws in our behavior, not somebody else’s.
The USA is history’s richest and most powerful nation (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#postwar), and it is an empire that is has been slaughtering millions since World War II (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#toll1); as an American, writing about my great nation’s crimes is something that ethics compels me to do.
The greatest instances of organized suppression (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#levels1) of free energy technology have happened in the USA, by far.

Hi:
In those early years of immersion in my media (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#big) and political studies, I was also studying a vast array of other material (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page7?p=734&viewfull=1#post734), including thermodynamics (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#industrial), Mr. Mentor’s (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#glimpse) and Fischer’s (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#fischer) patents, alternative medicine, mystical material (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#research), and so on. I did not know it at the time (http://ahealedplanet.net/roots.htm#fuller), but I was developing a comprehensive perspective (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#developing).
Along with the radical left, I studied the far right. I subscribed to The Spotlight (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Spotlight) for years, and one of its staffers was the only person that I know of who featured Gary Wean’s story of the JFK hit (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#wean) in a JFK assassination book. That writer got the idea for his book from Gary, and when his initial effort did not properly attribute Gary’s testimony, Gary complained, and the final book, Final Judgment (https://www.amazon.com/Final-Judgment-Missing-Assassination-Conspiracy/dp/0974548405), gave Gary’s testimony proper weight. It has been “interesting” to see Gary’s testimony be dismissed like it has over the years. I am not all that interested in Gary’s theories about who did it; he thought it was Jewish gangsters, which is not easily dismissed, given that Jack Ruby (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#ruby) was involved, as well as “magic bullet” Arlen Specter (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page8?p=773&viewfull=1#post773). For me, what was far more important was how it was all covered up, and Jewish gangsters did not have the power to do that, but that plot-within-a-plot (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#tower) sure “recruited” many willing “allies” to keep the lid on what really happened.
About two years into my studies, my wife and I watched Manufacturing Consent (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manufacturing_Consent:_Noam_Chomsky_and_the_Media) at Ohio State (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ohio_State_University). That movie has never been aired on mainstream TV in the USA, even though it was the most popular documentary in Canadian history to that time, which further illustrated Chomsky’s thesis, like that suppression of his and Ed’s book did (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/99-My-Media-and-Political-Studies-What-That-Ride-Was-Like?p=966&viewfull=1#post966). I was driven from my sleep in late 1992, soon after watching Manufacturing Consent, to write a 17-page letter to Noam. Noam confirmed who he was by soon replying with a letter of his own, which stated that he was tantalized by my letter (mostly on the suppression of free energy, but my upshot was that I could not find such a discussion anywhere in any media, not left, not right, and not mainstream). Noam gave me a polite brushoff, stating that he was no expert on that topic, and advised me to consult with an expert. Well, there were not any experts, so I kind of had to become my own. That was the same year that Brian nearly died (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#attack), courtesy of the American military, after snooping into the UFO phenomenon, and his first free energy book (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#miracle) was not published until the end of 1995. I bought 35 copies of it and sent it to friends and family. Brian later said that I was that book’s biggest fan.
In 1991, Oliver Stone’s JFK (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JFK_(film)) was released, and in 1993, Noam published Rethinking Camelot (https://www.amazon.com/Rethinking-Camelot-Vietnam-Political-Literary/dp/0896084582), which took on the idea of JFK’s being a secret dove on Vietnam, and Noam took on the idea that the CIA would have wanted JFK dead. In reading Noam’s book, I think that he missed the point, which Michael Parenti (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#parenti) brilliantly discussed a few years later (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page9?p=776&viewfull=1#post776), as he stated that the Left has a “conspiracy-phobia.”
I was gradually seeing how the structuralists, as represented by Chomsky, and the conspiracists, as represented by Gary, both failed to see the big picture (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#conspiracism), due to their worldviews. You could call it their ideological commitments. It was highly educational to immerse myself in those milieus and figure them out, but the process took many years.
I was also looking into the Apollo Moon landings (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#apollo), on-and-off, in those years, before finally deciding to go deep on it in early 2001, partly because of Brian’s public statements on the issue (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#apollo). That I still hear from people who argue for faked Moon landings shows how impervious to the evidence people can be, particularly conspiracists.
As I have stated, I have sometimes looked back at my journey, especially with Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=601&viewfull=1#post601), and wonder if it really happened, and my scholar’s journey was similar. As I wrote this post, I was amazed by all of the connections and overlaps. There is much more to come.

Hi, Wade
Thanks for the answers in the past, they are remain present in my research.
I would like you to write more about political and economic systems.
On global warming, the anarcho-capitalists and "libertarians" influenced by "heterodox economists" such as Ludwig von Mises, Murray N. Rothbard and especially Walter E. William consider it to be a form of religion and fake. They do not believe that mankind is capable of changing the planet's climate in an extreme way.
Link (https://townhall.com/columnists/walterewilliams/2010/01/13/global-warming-is-a-religion-n1237766)
Global Warming and human interference:
Link (http://www.greatwavesofchange.org/writings/great-waves.php?chapter=1)
“Great change is coming to the world, change unlike anything that humanity as a whole has ever seen before—Great Waves of change all converging at this time. For humanity has impacted the world in so many ways, and the results of that impact are now gathering—gathering strength, gathering force, converging at a time when humanity is largely unaware and unprepared.
These Great Waves are not one event. They are not one simple thing that happens at one time only, for humanity has set in motion forces of change now that it must contend with on an ongoing basis. For you are now living in a world of declining resources, a world whose climate has been seriously affected, a world whose ecological condition is deteriorating, a world where humanity will have to face the prospects of great shortages of food and water and the risks of disease and illness on a very large scale, even affecting the wealthy nations of the world. The balance has now been tipped and changed, and the human family as a whole must unite and gather together to deal with these great challenges.
In a world of ever-growing population and declining resources, humanity will face a great decision, a fundamental choice in which direction to go. Do nations compete and challenge each other for the remaining resources? Do they fight and struggle over who will control these resources and who will have access to these resources? For indeed, all the great wars of humanity’s turbulent past have been a struggle, fundamentally, over gaining access to and control over resources.”.
'Concerning' what "we" should do, and the reasons for it, I suggest you read this, link (https://www.bibliotecapleyades.net/vida_alien/alieninterview/alieninterview.htm). Despite being considered a hoax (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?6865-HOAX-Lawrence-Spencer-s-ALIEN-INTERVIEW&highlight=alien+interview).
“The bureaucracy that controlled the former "Old Empire" was from an ancient space opera society, run by a totalitarian 91 (Footnote) confederation of planetary governments, regulated by a brutal social, economic, and political hierarchy, 92 (Footnote) with a royal monarch as its figurehead. 93 (Footnote)
This type of government emerges with regularity on planets where the citizens abandon personal responsibility for autonomous, self-regulation. They frequently lose their freedom to demented IS-BEs who suffer from an overwhelming paranoia that every other IS-BE is their enemy who must be controlled or destroyed. Their closest friends and allies, whom they espouse to love and cherish, are literally "loved to death" by them.
Because such IS-BEs exist, The Domain (http://alieninterview.org/the-domain/) has learned that freedom must be won and maintained through eternal vigilance and the ability to use defensive force to maintain it. As a result, The Domain has already conquered the governing planet of the "Old Empire". The civilization of The Domain, although considerably younger and smaller in size, is already more powerful, better organized, and united by a egalitarian esprit de corps 94 (Footnote) never known in the history of the "Old Empire".
The recently despoiled German totalitarian state on Earth was similar to the "Old Empire", but not nearly as brutal, and about ten thousand times less powerful. Many of the IS-BEs on Earth are here because they are violently opposed to totalitarian government, 95 (Footnote) or because they were so psychotically vicious that they could not be controlled by "Old Empire" government.
Consequently, the population of Earth is disproportionately comprised of a very high percentage of such beings. The conflicting cultural and ethical moral codes of the IS-BEs on Earth is unusual in the extreme.
The Domain conquest of the central "Old Empire" planets was fought with electronic cannon. 96 (Footnote)
The citizens of the planets forming the core of government for the "Old Empire" are a filthy, degraded, slave society of mindless, tax-paying workers, who practice cannibalism. Violent automotive race tracks and bloody, Roman circus type entertainments are their only amusements.
Regardless of any reasonable justification we may have had for using atomic weapons to vanquish the planets of the "Old Empire", The Domain is careful not to ruin the resources of those planets by using weapons of crude, radioactive force.
The current U.S. civilization is beginning to mimic some of the trappings of that civilization, especially in the design of airplanes, automobiles, ships, trains, and telephones. Likewise, buildings in the cities of Earth are thought to be "modern" or "futuristic" if their design resembles the architecture of the "Old Empire".
The government of the "Old Empire", before being supplanted by The Domain, was comprised of beings who possessed a very craven intelligence, very much like the Axis powers 97 (Footnote) during your recent world war. Those beings manifested precisely the same behavior as the galactic government that exiled them to eternal imprisonment on Earth.
They were a gruesome reminder of the ageless maxim that an IS-BE will often manifest the treatment they have received from others. Kindness fosters kindness. Cruelty begets cruelty. One must be able and willing to use force, tempered with intelligence, to prevent harm to the innocent. However, extraordinary understanding, self-discipline and courage are required to effectively prevent brutality, without being overwhelmed by the malice that motivated the brutality.
Only a demonic, self-serving government would employ a "logic" or "science" to conceive that an "ultimate solution" to any problem is to murder and permanently erase the memory of every artist, genius, skilled manager, and inventor, and cast them into a planetary prison together with political opponents, killers, thieves, perverts, and disabled beings of an entire galaxy!
Once the IS-BEs expelled from the "Old Empire" arrived on Earth, they were given amnesia, and hypnotically tricked into thinking that something else had happened to them. The next step was to implant the IS-BEs into biological bodies on Earth. The bodies became the human populations of "false civilizations" which were designed and installed in the minds of IS-BEs to look completely unlike the "Old Empire".”

Hi Invictos (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1162873&viewfull=1#post1162873):
One big problem with economists is that they often pretend to be scientists (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#economists). It takes only a little scientific literacy to know that humanity is having an impact on Earth’s atmosphere (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1158590&viewfull=1#post1158590). From oxygenating Earth’s atmosphere (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#oxygenation) to sequestering so much carbon dioxide that it brought on an ice age (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#rainforestkaroo) to wiping out all of Earth’s easy meat (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#australianmegafauna), which had profound ecosystems impacts, it is obvious that life can greatly alter the “parameters” of Earth’s surface, ocean, and atmosphere. My experience with economists is that they are usually worse than worthless on those subjects, like that article that you linked to (https://townhall.com/columnists/walterewilliams/2010/01/13/global-warming-is-a-religion-n1237766). Julian Simon (http://ahealedplanet.net/simon.htm) was another great example of a clueless economist, with his soul-sold stable (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/90-Global-Warming-Peak-Oil-and-related-topics?p=463&viewfull=1#post463) of “scientists.”
As far as that tale that you posted, there are lots of grand galactic and interdimensional yarns out there, and I even wrote one of my own (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#tale), but they are just stories and not guides to action, as far as I am concerned. I am often approached by people selling me their particular yarn, and while some can be interesting, it is what we can do, here and now, which is important. Love is always the answer (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#greatest), and I don’t care what galactic Nazis might be out there. When they come into the open, then we might have something to talk about, or any evidence is provided beyond tall tales which might have some validity, but which might be outright disinformation or simply wild imaginings.
As far as systems go, my work is about what runs any system, which is energy. Second Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal2) systems had their own political-economic processes (and their so-called religious practices (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#dancing) simply reflected them, as with all Epochs), as did the Third’s (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal3), as does the Fourth’s (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal4), and each Epoch’s systems were radically different, as they ran on an order of magnitude or greater energy difference from their neighbors’. I am not too interested in dissecting the current economic systems any more than I already have, and as Uncle Bucky said (http://ahealedplanet.net/roots.htm#fuller), today’s political-economic systems don’t really matter, as they are just different ways of slicing up the scarce economic pie. All of today’s systems will become obsolete in the light of true energy abundance (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5), which has never been seen on Earth before. I give some ideas of what they may look like (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#cognitive), but on this side of the hump, it is only speculation, no matter how informed we think we are. We’ll see what the view is like after we get over that hump. :)

Hi:
Another subject that I began studying near the beginning of my media and political studies was organized skepticism (http://ahealedplanet.net/dennis.htm#friends). I gradually became appalled. I could call them the politically active arm of mainstream science, but that is too gentle a term. I eventually realized that it was largely a criminal enterprise, after I interacted with a leading “skeptic” who made a career out of libeling Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/dennis.htm#article). His initial 15 minutes of came in the house organ of organized skepticism. He stalked me (http://ahealedplanet.net/purpose.htm#warning) for a decade on the Internet, heaving disinformation bombs at me and anybody who promoted my work.
Not long before encountering Mr. Skeptic, I stumbled into the Velikovsky issue (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#velikovsky) while pursuing Carl Sagan’s debunking career (http://ahealedplanet.net/dennis.htm#sagan). I do not consider much of Velikovsky’s corpus of work to be valid (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page10?p=817&viewfull=1#post817), if any of it, but Sagan’s behavior was scandalous. It even served to keep the Velikovsky issue alive much longer than it should have. Virtually all theories eventually end up in the dustbin of history. That is how science ideally works. Velikovsky’s work deserved to go there long ago.
That comprehensive perspective that I was developing crossed disciplinary boundaries, and I could see that they were all related, in one way or another.
As I have written, Ed Herman was the witty end of his partnership with Chomsky, and while Noam’s books had covers of academic respectability, Ed wrote Beyond Hypocrisy (https://www.amazon.com/Beyond-Hypocrisy-Decoding-News-Propaganda/dp/0896084353) in 1992, with its Doublespeak Dictionary, and had a political cartoonist illustrate the book, as well as its cover. Ed wrote that the American establishment, along with its Orwellian media, had gone so far beyond hypocrisy that a new term had to be used, and Ed chose chutzpah. In his Doublespeak Dictionary, Ed defined the Chutzpah Factor thusly:
“Self-righteousness, arrogance, and a sense of superiority so great that gross double standards seem entirely reasonable and no self-interested action is beyond rationalization. This factor is positively correlated with size, power, and per capita income.”
Ed also is not overly structural. In his Doublespeak Dictionary, he defined a “conspiracy theory” as “A critique or explanation that I find offensive.” Ed even defined a “magic bullet (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page8?p=762&viewfull=1#post762)” this way:
“One that wends its way through several bodies, smashing bones on the way, but ends up in pristine condition, conveniently located for police attribution to the gun of choice.”
Ed gets big points for that, being about the only person from the Left that gave any credence to the conspiratorial aspect of JFK’s murder. He was interested in Gary’s tale (http://ahealedplanet.net/cover-up.htm#wean).
Best,
Wade

Hi:
Those early days of media and political studies were complemented with the real world, as usual, and in early 1992, Dennis flew me to a conference where he was trying the Madison Avenue approach to free energy (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=796121&viewfull=1#post796121). One of the companies there plotted to steal Dennis’s company, which was typical, but that conference was significant in a way that has helped inform my current effort.
Dennis’s plan was to runs ads for free energy on late-night cable channels, so late-night channel surfers would stumble into the ad and want to know more. From the flyer (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#flyer) for our first Greatest Energy Show on Earth, Dennis always talked about “cutting the power lines,” which John Eichorn (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/81-Vignettes-from-my-journey-and-how-I-learned-what-I-did-and-came-to-my-approach/page3?p=248&viewfull=1#post248) called an “umbilicus.” That ad had a scene with a woman cutting her power line, which made me laugh when I saw it (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page7?p=736&viewfull=1#post736). But Dennis was going after couch potatoes, and even back then, I wondered what he thought that he would accomplish that way. It was one more way that Dennis tried to crack the mass movement nut (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level10), trying to find a lowest common denominator. He was going far too low.
I had already seen in Seattle (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=601&viewfull=1#post601), Boston (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=611&viewfull=1#post611), and Ventura (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page4?p=652&viewfull=1#post652) what the mass movement approach had yielded, and Dennis had invented another iteration of it. It was one more data point in my evolving awareness, and when my second stint with Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/other.htm#sting) ended in early 1997 (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page9?p=803&viewfull=1#post803), I was forever done with the businessman’s approach to free energy. It took one more dose of activism with Brian (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#nem) to cure me of all mass movement approaches.
But in those early days of my media and political studies, as I read Noam (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#chomsky), Lies of our Times (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#loot), Ralph (http://ahealedplanet.net/mcgehee.htm), Ed (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#manufacturing), Howard (http://ahealedplanet.net/zinn.htm), Covert Action (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#covert), Z Magazine, etc., I was seeing advocacy of mass movement action, generally to overthrow elite rule, or at least throw a monkey wrench into it, such as the Vietnam War protests. Noam waxed on about “Cartesian common sense” and the virtues of the common man. Ed was again a refreshing exception to the usual Left views, as he did not absolve the masses of all responsibility and heap it onto the elite. In one of his books, he noted how the home crowd at football games would yell so that the opposing team could not hear their play calls. That is not exactly sporting behavior, but it is standard procedure for NFL games, especially in my natal city of Seattle. Ed at least acknowledged that the masses played their part in the disaster of our elite-dominated system.
My spiritual training (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#research) came in very handy in those days. The focus on elite machinations tends to make the rest of us look like victims, when I knew that wasn’t true. I eventually understood that the victim-orientation is what both the Left and Right have in common (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#weakness), with the Left’s structural analysis and the Right’s conspiracist approach. Both perspectives were anchored in fear, not love. Both Left (http://ahealedplanet.net/opinions.htm#left) and Right advocate violence (while the masses cheer it (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#bank)), which is always delusional. While the Right was often trapped (http://ahealedplanet.net/conun.htm#obvious) in organized religion, nationalism (or “patriotism (http://ahealedplanet.net/dennis.htm#libel)”), or capitalism, the Left was mired in materialism, scientism, and rationalism (http://ahealedplanet.net/conun.htm#subtle). It took me many years to finally understand what they all had in common (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#dominant): scarcity and fear (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#coming).
My statement of personal integrity being the world’s scarcest commodity (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page6?p=708&viewfull=1#post708) is really another way of saying that fear governs humanity, not love. All of the failed approaches to free energy (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#approaches) are all, in one way or another, based on scarcity and fear, not love, and all failed due to a lack of integrity. I could not really put them all under one roof until the lightbulb went on after reading some of Uncle Bucky’s work (http://ahealedplanet.net/roots.htm#fuller). That understanding can easily lead to judgment of humanity (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#judge1), but that is also a fear-based perspective. I had to learn to let that go and just accept humanity for where it is, as dismaying as that realization initially was. Our ultimate nature is divine (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#love), but manifesting that divinity in a world of scarcity and fear is extremely unusual. Almost nobody on Earth today has the right stuff (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=308&viewfull=1#post308) to help mount a free energy effort with a prayer. It is just what it is. But, are there enough people on Earth with enough of the right stuff for an approach like mine (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir) to have a chance? I devoted all of my “spare” time since 1989 to that path (although I did not initially know it), I might have another 30 good years in me still, and we will see how it goes. If my effort does not bear fruit, maybe another’s will. What I am certain of, however, is that if enough people with the right stuff can form that strong nucleus, and develop a comprehensive perspective (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#developing), free energy is a done deal. It will not matter what Godzilla (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc) and friends do.

Wade

Finished reading "Are We Smart Enough to Know How Smart Animals Are?"
It is clear that our intelligence is shared with animals, and we are part of a continuum. Also finished reading "The Deeper Genome"
After reading these books I have a healthy skepticism for simple explanations and reductionist explanations. But it brings up an
important question, how can we understand the complexity of reality? Humbleness might be a good start.
Also reading scientists seems to me that they are less quick to judge out-groups. So there is minor merit to conservative arguments
about liberal academics.

Thanks Krishna:
Yes indeed, the universe is a big, mysterious place, and the more that scientists find out, the best of them will happily admit that we “know” almost nothing (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#einstein). The scientific method has its virtues (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#theories) and limitations (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#trajectory).
The sense that I get from the best scientists is that they never lost that childlike awe at our reality. Also, going deep on their particular subjects of investigation can give them a healthy regard for life, all life. Take de Wall, who has spent a career studying our closest evolutionary relatives (at least, that still exist (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#climateneanderthal)), who eventually realized that chimps have a social intelligence equivalent to humanity’s. It can certainly deflate that anthropocentric arrogance that de Wall often writes about, to realize just what close cousins chimps really are.
Or take anthropologists who came to realize that all of humanity came from the same few thousand people about 50,000-to-60,000 years ago, and how we are all behaviorally modern (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#leap), so our differences are all so small, biologically, and even the cultural traits of all societies are similar (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#up), which likely reflects that common heritage.
Or take a paleologist such as Peter Ward (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page6?p=738&viewfull=1#post738), who studies the journey of life on Earth and is fascinated by each eon and all of the amazing creatures that have called Earth home over the past few billion years.
Or take astronomers who are slowly realizing just how small we are, sitting on our little planet, one of millions like it in our pedestrian galaxy.
As scientists peered into the genome, and slowly realized that they were only scratching the surface, yes indeed, the best of them were humbled by the process.
Of course, there is another frontier, which mainstream science has barely brushed up against, which is what lies beyond our physical universe (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#afterlife).
If we don’t wipe ourselves out (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#spaceshipearth) before we get over the hump (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5), the explorations have just begun.
Thanks for writing,

Hi:
During those days of media and political studies, I studied a lot more than just Noam and Ed, as you can tell from the notes to that media section of my essay (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#footnotes). The single best volume on the USA’s imperial behavior since World War II is William Blum’s Killing Hope (https://www.amazon.com/Killing-Hope-C-I-Interventions-II-Updated/dp/1567512526). Blum’s wit was like Ed’s. Blum led off a chapter on the USA’s repeated interventions in Greece with:
“’It’s the best damn government since Pericles,’ the American two-star general declared. (The news report did not mention whether he was chewing a big fat cigar.)”
The general was reacting to a military coup that the USA instigated in Greece in 1967, which was followed by martial law, torture of dissidents, slaughter, and so on, to prevent a “communist takeover,” which was the standard lie that the USA supplied in those days to explain its interventions, and it installed “The best damn government since Pericles.”
In those days, President Lyndon Johnson summoned the Greek ambassador to the White House, to tell him how it was going to be, regarding Greece’s ongoing battles with Turkey over Cyprus (I was in Greece (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#europe) during its war over Cyprus). When the ambassador replied that Johnson’s “solution” was going to violate the Greek parliament and constitution, Johnson made a memorable reply:
“Then listen to me, Mr. Ambassador, f**k your Parliament and your Constitution. America is an elephant, Cyprus is a flea. If these two fleas continue itching the elephant, they may get whacked with the elephant’s trunk, whacked good…We pay a lot of good American dollars to the Greeks, Mr. Ambassador. If your Prime Minister gives me talk about Democracy, Parliament and Constitutions, his Parliament and his Constitution may not last very long.”
That was how the USA treated its vassals, and the cradle of democracy in that instance, while it was in the midst of a genocidal slaughter in Southeast Asia (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/99-My-Media-and-Political-Studies-What-That-Ride-Was-Like?p=966&viewfull=1#post966). A generation later, the USA devastated the cradle of civilization (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#attacking). When the Bush administration vended its endless lies about its upcoming invasion of Iraq (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#invading), after all of its weapons of mass destruction arguments were exposed as lies, their military propagandists came up with a clever name for the invasion operation: Operation Iraqi Liberation. Before they could officially append that name to the invasion, somebody noticed that the operation’s name formed the acronym OIL. :) Truth can be stranger than fiction. Everything that the West is doing in the Middle East is all about the oil, and it has been that way for more than a century (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#churchill1). Westerners have to cultivate some deeply held delusions to think otherwise, but most Western pundits have accomplished it (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#ultimate).
Those are just a few of the endless examples of the USA’s imperial behavior, while it pretended that it was not an empire (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#neocolonialism). After the USA invaded Iraq, even a White House official boasted that the USA was an empire (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#rove), but the USA never comes out and officially admits it, just as it never officially admits that Israel has a nuclear arsenal (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#vanunu). It is in keeping with the Big Lies that attend the USA’s brand of imperialism, with a brainwashed citizenry, just as Orwell and Huxley predicted. Orwell found his explanations of how the Western system operates censored by the corporate interests (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#orwell), not the government, as if the censors were trying to illustrate the truth of what Orwell wrote about (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#orwell). Uncle Noam was not being rhetorical (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/99-My-Media-and-Political-Studies-What-That-Ride-Was-Like?p=966&viewfull=1#post966) when he wrote about how Western censorship works.
As Noam wrote about, the brainwashing by Western systems, particularly the British and American ones, began after England’s civil wars (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#puritan), when violence was no longer a viable way to keep the rabble in line, so the ruling class began controlling what people thought, as a way to keep them obedient. That practice became a science in the early 20th century, with the rise of public relations (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#bernays), when the term “propaganda (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propaganda_(book))” had a positive technical meaning.
When the USA overthrew the Guatemalan government (http://ahealedplanet.net/intro.htm#guatemala), setting the stage for the genocide of its citizenry (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#central), Ed Bernays provided the propaganda (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_Bernays#United_Fruit_and_Guatemala) to justify the overthrow. Among Bernays’s other accomplishments were addicting American women to tobacco (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#bernays) and helping turn a deadly industrial waste into “medicine” (http://ahealedplanet.net/fluoride.htm#compulsory) that is compulsorily fed to most Americans today, which “coincidentally” damages American brains (http://ahealedplanet.net/fluoride.htm#harold). Few Americans can read this post, for instance, without going into convulsions.
When the sitting American president was murdered (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page8?p=761&viewfull=1#post761) in broad daylight in front of hundreds of witnesses, a huge cover-up ensued, and all subsequent American presidents know that they are expendable, after that instructive lesson regarding JFK. They are nothing more than imperial puppets.
The USA is a plutocracy that parades as a democracy, but it has been that way since the nation’s founding (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#jay), when its richest citizen became its first president (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#washington). While the brainwashing is a constant phenomenon, not everybody is so fooled, and most Americans know that it does not matter whom they vote for, as the plutocrats will always get their way.
If I had not had my real world experiences with how the American system really works (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=601&viewfull=1#post601), how receptive would I have been to those radical (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#radical) perspectives? Perhaps not very. But I woke up the hard way, and those that I seek have to have already been awakened (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=309&viewfull=1#post309) somehow. My writings will not awaken the sleeping. People do not have to awaken how I did, or Ralph (http://ahealedplanet.net/mcgehee.htm#saigon), or Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#voice), or in the business world, but all people in all societies are imbued with their in-group ideologies (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ingroup), and they all prevent true sentience (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#sentience1) from manifesting.
To be asleep means to lose one’s sentience, and the vast majority of humanity slumbers today, with their minds imprisoned, and they sleep the fitful sleep of ignorance. It takes a lot of integrity to even admit the state of affairs, and it also takes a lot to learn to let it go and relinquish judgment of it (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#judge1). It is just what it is, as humanity has abdicated its sentience in favor of security.
What I slowly came to understand was that the news is merely the first draft of history, and what I was taught as history (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#more) was the same pack of lies that serves as the “news.” Mass-murdering thieves became national heroes (http://ahealedplanet.net/intro.htm#paradigms) and saints (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#saint), literally, and the vast majority of Americans never learn any differently (http://ahealedplanet.net/columbus.htm#shocked), nor do they want to. And once again, I had to learn to relinquish my judgment of the situation and just accept humanity’s benighted condition. It is just what it is.
However, when industrialization made slavery economically unproductive (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#southseas), people gradually grew consciences, and today’s humanity looks at slavery with revulsion, when it was a hallowed institution for the entire Third Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#slaverybeginning). In the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5), hallowed Fourth Epoch institutions and features, such as corporations (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#exchange), nations (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#nations), cities (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#cities), armies (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#peacekeeping), elites (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#elitedisappear), and the like will all become meaningless and seen as barbaric, much in the same way that industrial peoples view slavery, but the masses will not begin to wake up until the Fifth Epoch arrives (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#brink). It has been that way for all Epochs (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#imagine), and there is little reason to think that it will be different this time.

Hi:
There is much more to come on my political and media studies, but this post will be on how they relate to my free energy approach (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir). My previous post (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/99-My-Media-and-Political-Studies-What-That-Ride-Was-Like?p=974&viewfull=1#post974) would be hard medicine for almost any American who read it. An American perspective that can accept that reality, and not deny it, argue against it (usually quite irrationally (http://ahealedplanet.net/critics.htm#false)), or go on personal attacks of messengers like me (http://ahealedplanet.net/critics.htm#troll), are extremely rare. Most are oblivious, as Orwell noted (http://ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#orwell). Americans may pretend innocence of our vast crimes, but it is largely a charade (https://www.counterpunch.org/2003/07/15/considering-the-obvious/).
I found that the very same people who were most trapped by their nationalist indoctrination also gave the most reflexive denial of free energy (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level1). They could not imagine that what Dennis and I lived through (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=601&viewfull=1) could happen in our great nation (American minorities, such as blacks, Native Americans, Mexican-Americans, and the like are not too shocked, as they have been on the receiving end of our system’s evil for a long time). A related delusion is the idea that if free energy was possible, that the magic of capitalism would have already delivered it to humanity. That is similar to my Easter Bunny perspective (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#believing) when I got out of school.
A slightly less naïve reaction (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level2) comes from “liberals,” the kind who listens to NPR, watches PBS, and donates to environmental groups each year. They are more thoughtful, and when the subject of free energy comes up, they might not immediately dismiss it but will reach out to the “experts,” such as those environmental groups, their scientist pals, and the like. Since environmental groups (http://ahealedplanet.net/purpose.htm#environmentalists) are well aware of free energy (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/89-Free-energy-psychic-abilities-and-the-skeptics-and-debunkers/page2?p=438&viewfull=1#post438) and consider it the enemy, you can imagine how that conversation goes. Their scientist friends will usually declare that free energy is “contrary to the laws of physics,” blithely oblivious that some of the greatest names in physics doubted that (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#fe).
The most vociferous deniers of free energy’s possibility and desirability are usually the “experts” themselves (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level3), who not only play the “laws of physics” card, but deny the very possibility of organized suppression as a “conspiracy theory,” and also argue that even if free energy was possible, it would be undesirable, as humanity would only strip-mine the planet or have wars with free energy, as they project their fears (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level5), and quite irrationally, I might add. Virtually all mining on Earth would cease (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#mining) with the arrival of free energy and related technologies. Wars are all born of scarcity (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#warreason1), and free energy means abundance (http://ahealedplanet.net/abund.htm#abundance).
To one degree or another, those deniers are trapped by their indoctrination and conditioning, and have a delusional worldview. Almost without exception, Americans in thrall to those delusions blow a gasket when faced with something like my previous post (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/99-My-Media-and-Political-Studies-What-That-Ride-Was-Like?p=974&viewfull=1#post974).
But the more subtle and ultimately pernicious entrapment by their conditioning is those who get over the hump of denial of free energy’s possibility and desirability and try to “do something.” When a free energy inventor applies for a patent, he is already done (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#patent), but does not know it yet. When he goes the proprietary technology route (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#proprietary), he is nearly as foolish as those who apply for patents. For those a little worldlier, they understand that organized suppression is real (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#levels1), so they have abandoned the “better mousetrap” canard that is founded on the “magic of capitalism” delusion, but when they think that they can sneak past the organized suppression (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#level7), they labor under one of the deadliest delusions of all.
You will never see anything in Greer’s work like my previous post. Greer advocates that the masses rise up and “demand (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/97-Steven-Greer-s-Latest-UFO-ET-Disclosure-Effort?p=949&viewfull=1#post949)” ET disclosure and related technologies from the elite, and free energy and antigravity chief among them. I call that the beseeching approach (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#beseeching1), and it is just one more way to give away our power, and such approaches rest on the delusion that people in power really care for the common good and answer to it. They never have. As Uncle Noam says, stories of the elites’ judicious use of power is the stuff of folktales, not reality. They are all in power for themselves, not the welfare of the masses.
What was educational about Greer’s approach, but not surprising, was that not only did he never receive a scoffing or “skeptical” reaction (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/97-Steven-Greer-s-Latest-UFO-ET-Disclosure-Effort?p=940&viewfull=1#post940) to any of his briefings (only the masses and “skeptics (http://ahealedplanet.net/dennis.htm#friends)” do that), but none of the briefings’ recipients were ever willing to do anything about it. There are no heroes (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#messiah1) in those ranks. Doing the right thing is not in their DNA, not if there is any risk to themselves. I am not picking on them, as they are normal (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page6?p=708&viewfull=1#post708), but thinking that they are going to be anything other than what they are is delusional.
All of those failed approaches to free energy (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#approaches), to one degree or another, are due to an inability to escape one’s delusions, which is related to the integrity issue. If people have a love of the truth, they will eventually find it, and will never settle for the comforting fictions of their in-group conditioning (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#ingroup). The journey can be a long and painful one, but provides the ultimate reward: true sentience (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#sentience1). It could also result in a healed humanity and planet (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5).
Best,
Wade
Wade, it is often a breath of fresh thought that I feel when I read your insights. As a geographically situated american I can only Thank You for stating those truths about the history here. I and my friends have often been happy enough to piss off as many of the mindless as we could get away with, challenging the precepts of those who would call this nation so free. On the other hand I have served those who have endured the system with their oath, an oath I remind others of when they "obey".
I used to get in trouble as a teenager for pledging allegiance in school, out loud of course, to the "principles of the constitution" and not to the flag. It was and is the most american thing I could do.

Hi Hym:
Ah, the pledge (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#flag). It amazes me that before class began each day, more than a century’s worth of American children were forced into performing an act of idolatry. After Hitler adopted the USA’s pledge gesture (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bellamy_salute) and he declared war on the USA after Pearl Harbor, we virtuously put our hands over our hearts. They still do the pledge in American classrooms today, incredibly.
The USA’s former vassal state, the Philippines, recently made enthusiastic singing of their national anthem (http://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-40415778) mandatory, something literally lifted straight out of 1984 (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#orwell). In my “atheist” days, when I was about 15, my “protest” was omitting the “under God” part, which one teacher noticed. Like almost all children, I did not think what the heck they were really making me do, and my father gave me the idea that I would not quite be a man until I had been a soldier (http://ahealedplanet.net/war.htm#business). What a crock!
The U.S. Constitution is an interesting document. Only about 1% of Virginian residents of the day were full-fledged citizens – white, land-owning men (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#jay), which is about the same ratio as China’s Communist Party membership today. But the USA somehow invented freedom. :) The Constitution was devised as a way to limit the powers of government (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page6?p=691&viewfull=1#post691), even as an illegal convention formed the USA, as the Founding Fathers greatly overstepped their authority (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#herald) to create the USA. It was a kind of coup.
As far as I am concerned, the sleeping masses can stay that way for now. Just like with the other Epochs, they will begin to awaken when the next one is here (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#brink). In the Fifth Epoch, nations will end (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#nations), and so will pledges. :)
Thanks for reading and writing,

Just finished reading "Thank you for being late" by Thomas Friedman am never going to read another book from him.
But the positive is that he explains technological trends very well. Even for me it is mildly interesting.
However his social commentary is unreadable and not a word on energy and its importance.
Back to "The Deeper Genome" :) The author has a figure that puts fire use at around 3 million years, not sure where the date came from.
Wade Frazier

Hi Krishna:
Friedman is a New York Times hack. Yes, not worth reading.
I noticed that three million year number, too. There is some molecular evidence for the honeyguide (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#honeyguide), but that is all that I am aware of. Maybe for a genomics book, he considered that the molecular evidence decided the issue. :) In anthropology, that is certainly not an accepted date, and following that issue will be interesting.
Among the books that I have been reading lately has been Jennifer Clack’s Gaining Ground (https://www.amazon.com/Gaining-Ground-Second-Evolution-Tetrapods/dp/025335675X), on the vertebrate invasion of land. I thought that it might be popular science, but I was wrong. I can get through it, but it is not for laypeople. Good stuff, but one of those technical reads.
I also have been reading The Trial of Slobodan Milosevic (https://www.amazon.com/Slobodan-Milosevic-Socialist-Renewal-Fourth/dp/0851246931/ref=sr_1_6?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1499044559&sr=1-6&keywords=The+Trial+of+Slobodan+Milosevic), which Uncle Ed contributed to. Geez! What a kangaroo court. What was “fun” about it was seeing the same kangaroo court tactics that were used when I was on the witness stand in Dennis’s trial (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page5?p=681&viewfull=1#post681), with the prosecution making faces, with the judge interrupting the defense, telling them to hurry up, while the prosecution had no time limits, and the media played along, like stenographers at the Stalinist show trials. Ed particularly took on The New York Times reporter, and compared the farce to the Stalinist Trotsky-related show trials (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moscow_Trials#Trial_of_the_Sixteen).

Hi:
Briefly, to follow up on that control-of-fire date (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#fire1), following the issue is a fascinating and pertinent example of how science works. Richard Wrangham supported his arguments with several lines of evidence (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#cooking), including:
The anatomical changes that led to Homo erectus;
The unlikelihood that the human line would have slept on the ground before it controlled fire;
The honeyguide molecular evidence (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#honeyguide);
New technologies and techniques are allowing sites to be tested for evidence of fires in ways previously not possible, and earlier dates are coming out of that work.
For me, the fact that the “hobbits (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#hobbit)” also controlled fire, and the evidence today is that they were island-dwarfed australopiths or habilines, also supports early control of fire, because I think that it is likely that the practice of controlling fire was achieved once and spread through social learning. Controlling fire was such an Epochal breakthrough that no society that learned it would lose it, and it was a supremely difficult feat. Only the human line ever learned how to do it, and I consider it unlikely that it was achieved in several places independently.
But my jury is still out on this subject, and it will be very interesting to see developments on this subject in coming years.
Best,
Wade

Hi:
I am taking a brief break from my media and political studies, to make a post on current reading and the energy issue. I recently read an interview with Joseph Tainter (https://www.peakprosperity.com/podcast/109453/joseph-tainter-collapse-complex-societies), who is a prominent voice on collapsed civilizations (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#collapse), and that guy who interviewed Tainter placed the next energy crisis at three years or less (https://www.peakprosperity.com/blog/109505/looming-energy-shock). A prominent financial writer who writes about energy and economy recently wrote about the coming crisis (https://ourfiniteworld.com/2017/07/02/the-next-financial-crisis-is-not-far-away/).
While on one hand, it is nice to see economists and social scientists write about the relationship of energy and economy, which is new and unusual (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#economists), I have pretty much never seen one of them even hint that free energy might be possible or desirable. When I have contacted such people, the responses, if I get any at all, are like Heinberg’s (http://ahealedplanet.net/hooked.htm), or I am directed to places and people such as the Post-Carbon Institute (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Post_Carbon_Institute) or Amory Lovins (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#reactions), who regard free energy as the enemy. It was initially mind-boggling to receive those kinds of responses, from people who are good at describing the problems and at least seem interested in solutions, but I have yet to find one of them who was not addicted to scarcity (http://ahealedplanet.net/hooked.htm#misinformation). After five years of that head-banging, Brian O began openly wondering if humanity was a sentient species (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#sentience).
It was after many years of my own head-banging on those issues that I came to my current approach (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir). I have come to realize that the only candidates for the choir are people with at least several years of familiarity with my work. It takes that long to get oriented to what I am writing about, as it is so radically different from anything else out there. And that is for the few who even want to (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/86-More-on-the-helpful-prerequisites-for-forum-participation?p=308&viewfull=1#post308). Impatience is my Achilles’s heel (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#reading), so on one hand, my journey has provided “opportunities” to work on it every day, so I guess that I have to appreciate this “opportunity.” :)
I was just hearing this weekend what a cesspool Facebook is, with most of the accounts being fake, with its ranks liberally populated with extortionists and the like. What Bill and friends have done at Avalon is remarkable. In more than six years of being here, I have yet to encounter even one troll (http://ahealedplanet.net/critics.htm#troll), much less extortionists and the like.

Facebook and social media in general are a pretty bad medium for discussing anything of substance, much less something like Free Energy. Even when people are discussing non-mainstream topics like conspiracies, it almost never rises beyond echo chamber virtue signalling. It's good for promoting my therapy practice, keeping in touch with friends and sharing photos of cats, but not much else.
Many fall for the trap of thinking that if they can just get someone to sympathize with their viewpoint, that it is the equivalent of actually DOING something. So the question is, were they really trying to change the world, or just looking for social validation?

Hi:
Here is a short one on my media and political studies before it is back to work. While Howard Zinn (http://ahealedplanet.net/zinn.htm) and David Stannard (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/99-My-Media-and-Political-Studies-What-That-Ride-Was-Like?p=965&viewfull=1#post965) were my early influences on what Europe’s “discovery” and “settling” of the Western Hemisphere was really like, in 1997 Ward Churchill published what will likely go down as his greatest work, A Little Matter of Genocide (https://www.amazon.com/Little-Matter-Genocide-Holocaust-Americas/dp/0872863433/ref=asap_bc?ie=UTF8), and an essay in it, “Nits Make Lice,” I consider to be his masterpiece. It was about the European extermination of North American Indians, from the first English “settlers” to when Churchill wrote that essay in 1996. With great works of scholarship such as that, I raided his footnotes in doing my own work, and Churchill’s work always held up great on that score.
There were some problems with his work, such as he could be too fervent in defending the American Indian, such as his denial that the first American Indians exterminated the megafauna soon after they arrived (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#westernmegafauna), and he had other problems when he ventured into scientific areas, but as a historian and scholar, he has few peers in the area of what the American Indian suffered under the European/American onslaught.
Stannard wrote the book’s preface, and began it with:
“Ward Churchill is a man looking for trouble.”
Stannard was prescient, and it was precisely Churchill’s masterpiece that was the focus of a witch-hunt (http://ahealedplanet.net/columbus.htm#churchill) that ended his academic career. They put some of Churchill’s footnotes under a microscope and tried to get him for the equivalent of Dennis’s failure to file a form (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#bargain). What triggered it was an essay that Churchill wrote that made the case that 9/11 (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#wtc) was a classic instance of imperial blowback (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blowback_%28intelligence%29), and that the technocrats of empire who died in 9/11 were not wholly innocent, however great the crime that killed them.
The rigged proceedings actually failed to find Churchill at scholarly fault, but then the prosecution changed tactics and decided that the university did not have to justify at all why they fired Churchill, as they could fire anybody on a whim. That is how the system really works, not the fantasy version that the media and Hollywood feeds the masses.

Hi:
As I have written plenty, one aspect of our political-economic systems that gets both Left and Right in a lather is the subject of elites. I noticed it early in my media and political studies. Academic studies show how the elite run the show (https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/monkey-cage/wp/2016/05/23/critics-challenge-our-portrait-of-americas-political-inequality-heres-5-ways-they-are-wrong/?utm_term=.086a82056756), even in the so-called democracies, and one recent study (http://ac.els-cdn.com/S0921800914000615/1-s2.0-S0921800914000615-main.pdf?_tid=f5cb5e7e-609a-11e7-a409-00000aacb362&acdnat=1499160612_b8750c6d577b9178b07b595be3dea4dc) even used the rabbits-and-wolves model (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lotka%E2%80%93Volterra_equations) of elite-masses interaction. Few have suffered at the hands of the global elite (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#hitting) more than I have, so I know what they are capable of. I’ll not deny the role that the elite play in our political-economic systems, but just as judging the wolf for hunting the rabbit is not productive, seeing elites as the root of our problems, rather than a symptom, is one of the greatest failings of both Left and Right (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#weakness).
Elites are an artifact of the Third (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#elitesappear) and Fourth (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#rockefeller1) Epochs, and will disappear in the Fifth (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#elitedisappear), and they know it, which is why they have so avidly suppressed (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#levels1) free energy and related technologies. In a Type 1 civilization (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#kardashev), elites will no longer make economic sense, just like slavery only made economic sense in the Third Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#southseas). To use that economic model here to make my point, it is what the rabbits do, not the wolves, which will take us into the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5). That is what my work is all about (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir). Elites are symptoms, not causes, or to use another scientific analogy, they are only proximate causes, not ultimate ones (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#ultimate). But people have to learn to see like creators, not victims, to understand. There is a symbiosis happening, and violence and coercion (http://ahealedplanet.net/radleft.htm#coerce) directed toward elites is not the answer, and will make things worse, not better. That is where Marx (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#marx1) blew it, among others.
In ways, my views are not all that radical, as the post-scarcity economy (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Post-scarcity_economy) is alive and well in scholarly speculation and fiction today. My message, however, is that the means to a post-scarcity economy are already here (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#underground), but under the suppression and control of the global elite (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc). The Left denies that those elite even exist (http://ahealedplanet.net/radleft.htm#religion), while the Right obsessively focuses on them (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#conspiracism), and neither is a healthy or enlightened reaction, and both are rooted in fear, not love. A loving approach (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#greatest) is truly the only one with a chance (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#approach), in my opinion.

Hi:
I would have to say that the 2002 version of my site was more historical and political (http://ahealedplanet.net/home.htm#political) than scientific. I would not even call it that consciously comprehensive. It was not until reading Uncle Bucky’s work in early 2003 (http://ahealedplanet.net/roots.htm#fuller) that the comprehensive lightbulb finally went on. My work was certainly radical back in 2002, but it took another decade before it became Epochal (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochaltable).
While my media and political studies were invaluable for my developing perspective, I suppose that the Left’s limitations began becoming clear from my first interaction with Uncle Noam (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/99-My-Media-and-Political-Studies-What-That-Ride-Was-Like?p=970&viewfull=1#post970). The Left was filled with Marxist types. Marx did his work before there was a science of energy. Neo-classical economics (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#neoclassical) considers energy simply a commodity whose limits are only what the market dictates. The recent “radical” economic manifesto, Parecon (http://ahealedplanet.net/radleft.htm#parecon), did not even mention energy.
Once again, my media and political studies were leavened by my real-world activities. In 1996, Dennis finally persuaded me to work for him again. I nearly went to prison (http://ahealedplanet.net/other.htm#sting) for my trouble. It was an educational time. After several years of studying organized skepticism, I interacted with a famous “skeptic (http://ahealedplanet.net/dennis.htm#friends)” for several months (who then stalked me for the next decade (http://ahealedplanet.net/purpose.htm#warning)), and that, along with other “skeptical” interaction, led me to regard organized skepticism as generally being a criminal enterprise. We met with Al Gore at the White House (http://ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#yull), Bill Clinton knew Dennis by name (and hated him), I spoke at Department of Energy hearings (http://ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#yull), and the man who ran the hearings tried to wise us up to the real game being played. That disillusioning stint (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/89-Free-energy-psychic-abilities-and-the-skeptics-and-debunkers?p=413&viewfull=1#post413) did not last long, and when it was over in early 1997, I was forever cured of trying the businessman’s path to free energy.
At the same time, Steven Greer (http://ahealedplanet.net/journey.htm#greer) was mounting secret Congressional hearings on the UFO issue, which Ed Mitchell (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/53-Wade-s-Blog/page3?p=416&viewfull=1#post416) co-chaired. Brian O was a prominent supporter, after nearly losing his life after snooping into the UFO issue (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#attack). Several members of Greer’s team came down with strange forms of cancer right after the hearings (http://ahealedplanet.net/journey.htm#adamiak), and he was the only survivor, but was never the same after that (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/97-Steven-Greer-s-Latest-UFO-ET-Disclosure-Effort?p=949&viewfull=1#post949). In my circles, there was little doubt about what happened. Godzilla (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc) plays hardball when he needs to.
Brian advised several presidential candidates (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#udall) during his politically active days, and near his life’s end, he told me that electoral politics was a dead-end. The political experiences of Dennis, Greer, and Brian were so far outside of the Left’s reality that it never even registered with them. I saw Michael Albert, the author of Parecon, dismiss the entire UFO issue with a “little green men” remark, so the entire free energy and ET/UFO issue (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#spacemining) was entirely off the table for the Left, and it remains so to this day.
That is an example of ideology trumping reality. I still did not entirely give up on the radical left, wrote an open letter to them (http://ahealedplanet.net/radleft.htm) ten years ago, and correspond with Uncle Ed to this day.
But I gradually came to realize how trapped the Left was in its worldview. I am not picking on them, as virtually all groups on Earth are conditioned by their particular brand of scarcity (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#dominant), but I had hoped that the Left could see further along the path. When I gave up on the Left, it was about the last group that I gave up on. 2007 was when I decided that if any group had a chance to make a dent, I was going to have to roll my own, and my efforts for the past decade have been specifically devoted to it.
I still carried some of Brian’s spears (http://www.brianoleary.info/Impacts.html) when asked, although I also generally rejected Brian’s and Dennis’s efforts to reenlist me in their efforts, and I am so happy that I did. The last thing that I needed was the feds showing up to my house (http://ahealedplanet.net/paths.htm#ftc).
When I read Bucky, the lightbulb immediately went on, regarding politics, which is only about reshuffling the deck of scarcity (http://ahealedplanet.net/roots.htm#politics), and is really useless behavior in the big picture of the human journey on Earth. The Left, as well as Right, as well as the mainstream, are all firmly ensconced in their Epoch, which is normal (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#imagine). I know of no group on Earth not trapped in their adoptive scarcity-based frameworks (http://ahealedplanet.net/hooked.htm#misinformation). The group that can truly help make free energy happen does not yet exist, and I am doing what I can (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir). If my effort does not form it, maybe another’s will. But it has to aim high, far beyond the confines of our Epoch.
As wonderful as my political education and studies were, they only illuminated some important facets of the issue at hand. A comprehensive perspective (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#developing) puts politics in its place, so that it is understood in a larger framework.
Today, I try to pay as little attention to retail politics as I can, knowing how meaningless it is in the big picture. The American president is a puppet (http://ahealedplanet.net/journey.htm#presidents) and knows it, ever since JFK was set straight (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page8?p=761&viewfull=1#post761). George Bush the Second’s energy advisor was a fan of Dennis’s (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=694872&viewfull=1#post694872), but it did not matter after David Rockefeller got involved (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page13?p=888&viewfull=1#post888). The White House is not where the real power is.

Hi:
Because Krishna brought up the early control of fire (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?10672-WADE-FRAZIER-A-Healed-Planet&p=1164041&viewfull=1#post1164041), I spent a lot of time yesterday reading on the issue. Wrangham recently weighed-in (http://www.journals.uchicago.edu/doi/full/10.1086/692113) on how his hypothesis (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#cooking) has been faring. One paper in particular took it on (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4842772/), and it ended with an admonishment for taking the hypothesis seriously in the first place (that kind of ax-grinding is common in science, unfortunately). Wrangham was part of an effort to look for the genetic evidence (https://academic.oup.com/gbe/article/8/4/1091/2574082/Genetic-Evidence-of-Human-Adaptation-to-a-Cooked), and they concluded that Neanderthals (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#neanderthalsplit) and Denisovans were adapted to cooked food, so the human-line dependence on cooked food is at least a few hundred thousand years old. I doubt that they will be able to use genetic evidence for an earlier date, because they won’t be able to find the DNA (it would have to be for the Homo erectus/Homo heidelbergensis (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#heidelbergensis) split, and DNA likely does not last that long).
There is a related new hypothesis, called the pyrophilic primate hypothesis (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/27061034), which argues for human-line use of fire on the drying savannas of Africa, as much as three million years ago, as a result of the incipient ice age (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#atlanticextinction). This hypothesis is getting a bit of play (https://unews.utah.edu/the-pyrophilic-primate/) these days.
Wrangham has sparked a great deal of debate (https://broadspeculations.com/2014/12/02/the-raw-and-the-cooked/) (2 (https://peterturchin.com/cliodynamica/when-did-human-beings-start-using-fire-wrangham-versus-cordain/)) and investigation (https://www.economist.com/news/science-and-technology/21694489-early-humans-may-have-pounded-and-sliced-their-food-make-it-easier), which is what good science should do. Chimps prefer cooked food (http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/next/evolution/give-a-chimp-a-grill-and-all-hell-want-is-cooked-food/), and the so-called paleo diet is argued to be based on a fantasy. (http://www.motherjones.com/environment/2014/01/michael-pollan-paleo-diet-inquiring-minds/) Wrangham wrote that a recent paper (http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0047248415001360) put the honeyguide/fire (https://honey-guide.com/2014/03/26/honeyguides-fire-and-human-evolution/) hypothesis in doubt, as early humans might have used other means than smoke to subdue bees long ago. I think that the role of fire in the early human journey (http://www.smithsonianmag.com/science-nature/why-fire-makes-us-human-72989884/) is here to stay. That is not new, as Darwin called the control of fire humanity’s greatest achievement (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#fire1), along with the mastery of language (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#language). But its evolutionary implications comprise a new area of study, largely thanks to Wrangham. All scientists expect their theories to eventually fall by the wayside, even Einstein did, but they hope that their work stimulates scientific investigation, and that the best parts of their theories survive in subsequent theories. I think that Wrangham is assured of that legacy.
This entire area is a fascinating one, and my essay update will include the state of the debate and evidence.

Hi:
To briefly revisit yesterday’s post (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/24-Chapter-17-Humanity%C2%92s-First-Epochal-Event-Growing-our-Brains-and-Controlling-Fire?p=979&viewfull=1#post979), a big point of my work is getting people to think like scientists, at least well enough to understand the process (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#theories). The process is important. It is certainly not the be-all, end-all (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#mystical1), just like psychic abilities (http://ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#research) are not the be-all, end-all. In that recent paper (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4842772/) that takes on the cooking hypothesis, another paper (http://www.zora.uzh.ch/57326/17/Navarrete_ManuscriptMerged-1.pdf) is cited that takes on the expensive tissue hypothesis. The paper documents an investigation of the correlation between digestive tracts among mammals, and did not find the negative correlations that they argued would support the expensive tissue hypothesis to explain the human brain’s explosive growth. But would it? I doubt that such an exercise would be very meaningful in the first place.
The issue at hand is how a chimp became a human, with its huge brain. I strongly doubt that the relationship of other mammals’ digestive systems and their brains is going to be very relevant to human-line encephalization, which is the most dramatic in the history of life on Earth. The question is what happened in the human line to grow such huge brains, and since no other animals in Earth’s history grew their brains as dramatically as humans did, studying other mammals for digestive system and brain size correlation is going to have limited relevance, in my opinion. That challenging paper (http://www.zora.uzh.ch/57326/17/Navarrete_ManuscriptMerged-1.pdf) attributed the energy gains used to fuel large brains as reductions of energy from locomotion, growth, and reproduction. It completely dismissed the dramatic reduction in the human digestive system, which happened at the same time that the human-line’s brain grew dramatically. That was quite a feat, to completely dismiss the connection. I don’t buy it.
I am not saying that I am right, but that I am thinking critically about the battle of the scientific papers. It is the thinking process that is important, and even laypeople like me can think critically think about the issues and weigh the evidence, the approaches, and the like. Several aspects of Wrangham’s Cooking Hypothesis (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#cooking) are not easy to explain away, and what I am seeing from those challengers is a kind of denial that fire played any role at all in the human evolutionary journey.
Again, this is a controversy that I will follow with great interest, and it is nowhere near resolved. And, of course, this issue is entirely an energy game. :)
Best,
Wade

Hi:
To finish up my media and political studies posts for now, my introduction was my radicalizing ride with Dennis (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page2?p=601&viewfull=1#post601). That set the stage for everything that followed. We ran into capitalism on steroids (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#steroids) (or, you could say, it ran into us :) ), and I have continually seen people overplay the influence of retail politics and the military and underplay the capitalist interests. Capitalist interests run the show, not retail politicians or the military. Politicians are puppets (http://ahealedplanet.net/roots.htm#politics), the media is the mouthpiece (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#big), writing the first draft of “history (http://ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#more),” and the military is the muscle (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#butler).
Ever since JFK was taken out (http://ahealedplanet.net/forum/threads/93-Lessons-learned-from-my-journey-with-Dennis/page8?p=761&viewfull=1#post761), American presidents have all been puppets, and even Uncle Noam (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#chomsky) has stated as much. He said that Lyndon Johnson was visited (http://www.truth-out.org/progressivepicks/item/33832-the-united-states-believes-that-it-has-an-inalienable-right-to-raw-materials-in-developing-nations) by Wall Street’s “wise men (http://www.politico.com/story/2010/03/johnson-meets-with-the-wise-men-march-25-1968-034945),” and less than a week later (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lyndon_B._Johnson#1968_presidential_election), he announced that he would not run for reelection.
There has been a battle between Right and Left (http://ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#conspiracism) over “conspiracy theories,” which have been as American as apple pie since the Declaration of Independence (http://www.washingtonsblog.com/2012/09/america-and-western-civilization-as-a-whole-was-founded-on-a-conspiracy-theory.html), and such “conspiratorial” views go back to the Classic Greeks, as they formed their democracy. All sorts of “wacky” conspiracy theories have turned out to be true (1 (http://theantimedia.org/10-conspiracy-theories-that-turned-out-to-be-true/), 2 (http://theantimedia.org/10-conspiracy-theories-2/)), and those are just the tip of the iceberg. I know (http://ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#underground) that the technologies that could usher in the Fifth Epoch (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#epochal5) have long existed on Earth, but are under hyper-elite (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gc) control, and they actively suppress (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#levels1) any efforts to independently develop them. People often dismiss all of that as a conspiracy theory, but when you live through it, it is no theory.
In the end, my media and political studies were invaluable for understanding many proximal causes (http://ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#ultimate) of our situation. The ultimate cause has always lied in the economic end, not the political end, of societal dynamics. The only two things that exist in the universe are energy and consciousness (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#consciousness), and understanding those are the key to our future, if it is to be a positive one (which is by no means guaranteed (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#spaceshipearth)). Retail politics is useless for righting the ship, as is all “alternative” politics that focuses on the elite and hacks at branches. Politics has always been about how to slice up humanity’s scarce economic pie, and open imperialism (https://www.commondreams.org/news/2017/06/02/literal-colonialism-blackwater-founder-calls-american-viceroy-rule-afghanistan) is once again raising its head (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#rove). In a world of abundance (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#immediate), all of today’s political stripes become obsolete, as well as elites (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#elitedisappear).
It is all about what we do (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#gcfocus), not them. Going for the root is the only path that I am interested in, and is likely the only approach with a prayer, and that effort has to be grounded in love (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#visions). It would not take many of us to right the ship, which is what my work is about (http://ahealedplanet.net/humanity.htm#choir).
Best,
Wade
