WADE FRAZIER : A Healed Planet

[Wade Frazier]

Hi:

This will be a little White Science post. I mentioned previously that around 2000, I decided that I wanted to resume my White Science studies one day and study the dating issue in particular. It was partly inspired by watching the controversies of catastrophism. I was introduced to it via the Velikovsky controversy, but it expanded beyond it. There were challenges to the dating techniques being used by orthodox science. White Science has developed many dating methods:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dating_...y_(archaeology)

some of recent vintage, and as techniques and technology have kept improving, the methods have been getting more accurate, at least in theory. I was also nearly being besieged by creationist “scientists” who challenged the orthodox perspective. The dating issue was key to many of the alternative scenarios that I was encountering. A lot of it was around Velikovsky’s proposed chronology for Biblical events. The challenges generally focused around sample contamination, phenomena that the dating methods were not controlling for, which would skew the results or make them invalid, groupthink among White Scientists, being trapped by their paradigm, and related issues. On the outer fringes of that kind of theorizing was a Russian mathematician named Anatoly Fomenko, who proposed radically different dates for human history:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Chronology_(Fomenko)

Those theories might seem crazed, but Fomenko was only one of many claimants who challenged the orthodox dating findings. I was not going to get to the bottom of it unless I resumed my math and White Science studies, and I put it on my list of things to do one day. Then the 9/11 terror attacks happened, I resumed my career, and I have a mission on the lamb-choir front, so it was looking like I would never get to resume my studies. But fortune smiled on me as I plunked along on my studies in my “spare” time, particularly the past several years of reading that has been preparing me for my upcoming essay. I have been reading a lot on geophysics, evolution, and anthropology in the past several years.

As I mentioned earlier, White Science has been becoming multi-disciplinary during my lifetime. It is really a fairly recent phenomenon, and long overdue. As Bucky Fuller said, keeping scientists overspecialized was a way to keep them blind to the big picture:

http://www.ahealedplanet.net/roots.htm#slave

White Science will have to overcome its materialism in order to really begin to see the big picture, but the increasing multi-disciplinary trend has made for big breakthroughs in researching the past of Earth and humanity. As the tools sharpen and more findings have been correlated with each other, and new methods of dating keep being dreamed up, such as amino acid dating:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amino_acid_dating

White Scientists have been coming up with startling new findings with regularity. They are still subjecting the moon rocks to new tests, which throw the theories into disarray:

http://www.wired.com/wiredscience/20...ion-collision/

One area of great interest for me has been how the new findings of research on the climate’s past have been getting correlated with archeological and historical research. Brian Fagan’s generalist works lay out what that multidisciplinary effort has been yielding lately, from the end of the latest glacial interval (The Long Summer) to the Medieval Warming Period (The Great Warming), to The Little Ice Age (a book of the same title), the impact of El Niños and La Niñas over history (Floods, Famines and Emperors), and what how California Indians lived for thousands of years before the Europeans arrived (Before California). I scouted for an archeological dig in the hills behind Ventura when I was about twelve, and little did I know of the peoples that lived in the area for many millennia before the Europeans arrived.

Not only do the many dating methods proliferate and become more sophisticated all the time, but with the increasing precision of tools such as mass spectrometers, scientists are able to discern changes in isotopic ratios, such as carbon-12/carbon-13 ratios. Life processes favor lighter molecules, because it takes less energy to use them, so scientists can test ancient sedimentary layers and what appear to be fossils, and the isotopic ratios can confirm it.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon-13

Oxygen-16 and oxygen-18 ratios have been used in studying sedimentary layers. Because oxygen-16 is lighter than oxygen-18, it takes less of the sun’s energy to evaporate oxygen-16, so rainfall is enriched in oxygen-16. In today’s world, that relatively lighter rain makes its way back to the oceans through the hydrological cycle, so the top ocean layers, where most sea life lives, does not get oxygen-18-enriched. But during an ice age, the ocean will become oxygen-18-enriched, as the ice sheets become oxygen-16 enriched, and the tiny sea life that makes its shells from calcium carbonate will be oxygen-18 enriched, so the sedimentary layers will have those enrichment signatures, and that is one of the ways that scientists have been able to put dates on the ice intervals over the past 2.5 million years:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxygen-18

But those lines of evidence also correlate with many other pieces of evidence, forming a robust and interleaving set of data (O-18 is also a marker for other phenonenon, such as sea temperatures). And they keep finding more evidence, keep coming up with more dating methods, and the picture keeps becoming clearer. As I have been studying the various lines of evidence over the years, those challenges coming from the fringes have looked less and less tenable, and I can understand why those fringe people are called crackpots (I just received an email last night from the catastrophic controversy and the Electric Universe theorists, and the email almost led with the word “cranks,” and I keep telling my pals that those labels are not helpful, although I understand their sentiments).

The fossil record, correlated with radiometric dating, isotopic analysis, and other techniques, has painted quite an amazing picture of the past of life on Earth and Earth’s changing face. There used to be virtually no oxygen in the atmosphere or oceans. None of us would have survived five minutes on Earth’s surface a few billion years ago, but that thing called life happened, and eventually bacteria “learned” to capture sunlight and the primary waste product of their energy-production, the deadly oxygen, “polluted” the planet to the levels we have today:

http://www.ahealedplanet.net/upcomin...photosynthesis

Life itself terraformed the planet, making it friendlier to life. That photosynthesis also saved Earth’s oceans by creating the oxygen that created the ozone layer. Otherwise, Earth would have already lost its oceans because the hydrogen would have escaped to space (see Nick Lane’s Oxygen, pp. 25-26).

I have to get ready for work, but let me state that the interplay of astronomical events and processes, geophysical processes and life is a science that is still in its infancy, but its findings are fascinating. It also has very real impacts on White Science’s understanding of the human journey, which is perhaps the primary focus of my upcoming essay. For instance, many mysteries of archeology are being slowly solved via those interdisciplinary findings. The abandonment of Angkor Wat, and the disappearance of the Classic Mayans and Anasazi have now been correlated with epic droughts during the Medieval Warm Period. While Europe had its High Middle Ages, with many of its great cities built during that period (about 950-1250 AD):

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medieval_Warm_Period

as people also heavily deforested Europe, many other places in the world suffered epic droughts that lasted for generations, and those droughts are now thought to have collapsed those ancient civilizations, not the New Agey notions that the Mayans and Anasazi “ascended.” I was not there, so maybe some did ascend, but epic droughts wiped out the ability of those civilizations to sustain themselves, and their declines were not pretty, from what anthropologists have been able to piece together, with increased environmental degradation from deforestation, warfare, and even cannibalism marking the end of the Anasazi.

Even the “missing links” in human evolution are slowly disappearing, as more is discovered. Did ETs help out? I consider it very possible, but White Science can explain the broad contours of the human trajectory quite satisfactorily, IMO, and I doubt that Black Science has much motive or opportunity to play games in that field. Black Science is more concerned with advanced technology and keeping it away from the rest of us, so humanity does not free itself from Godzilla’s clutches. While there are plenty of apologists for the Black Science secrecy and suppression (“Humanity is not ready for it!”), who put them in charge, to make those decisions for humanity?

I am going to work now.

Best,

Wade

[Hughe]

How did the ancient builders either humans or ETs know that the sites of great pyramids over globe would avoid any earthquake or natural disaster?

Mainstream scientists admit "When modern civilization collapses, just one thousand years of natural restoration would erase any signs of artificial constructs or objects on Earth." Everything in nature changes. I don't buy into carbon dating or period of atomic decay of element anymore. It's absurd. Earth is not in perfect controlled environment. It travels through ever changing space extremely fast speed. Invisible, undetectable energy fields interact with Earth. Mainstream scientists will resist accepting this truth till the end. People need to wake up, exercising their power of reasoning, intuitions.

The effort of finding the super theory of everything by itself shows how stupid humans are. I wish those brilliant scientists spend their energy and time to solve energy crisis and destruction on Earth. Billions of people barely survive day by day.

[Wade Frazier]

Hi Hughe:

I’ll agree that White Science is not focusing on the most important issues. I know it all too well, with my FE adventures, and what people like Brian endured while playing the Paul Revere of FE:

http://www.ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#revere

White Science is currently pretty worthless at solving the big problems, and that is just how Godzilla likes it. But, every significant group that I have encountered on Earth is useless, too, on the FE front, so I don’t pick on White Science as much. The FE journey is a walk through the desert, and a desert that is also watched carefully by Godzilla, and virtually nobody is helping. That is the problem. When White Scientists snoop into it, their denial and naiveté doom their efforts:

http://www.ahealedplanet.net/radleft.htm#nerd

among other foibles. Personal integrity is the world’s scarcest commodity, which is why no group has the right stuff at this time.

http://www.ahealedplanet.net/energy1.htm#burn

But other than the enticements of Nobel Prizes and comfy berths in academia, studying the Burgess Shale:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burgess_Shale

does not appeal to greed, does not upset any of the rackets, but is pursued largely out of a need to know. So, the White Scientists in that field are going to be far less compromised than in other fields. Materialism is a trap, and most White Scientists are trapped in it, but almost everybody is trapped in their worldview, or if you will, their paradigm:

http://www.ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#introduction

But I don’t look as askance at dating methods as you do.

But, what are you referring to with the pyramids, that they aren’t sitting on fault lines that have ruptured and torn them apart? Their design was intended to last a long time, and the shape of a pyramid would guarantee that it would not collapse. Many Egyptian pyramids are so eroded it is hard to tell that they ever were pyramids. I don’t think that mystical or ET influences are needed to explain the pyramids, although I have seen evidence of “pyramid power” and don’t scoff that the ancients may have known something about energy that is currently lost (ley lines, etc.). But when I hear about the pyramids being energy generators, I ask what the energy was used for. There is nothing obvious in the archeological record about that, and if we want to invoke some stargate or other theory, well, is there any good evidence to back it up? That evidence has always been severely lacking, IMO. Places like Egypt, Mexico City and Java have pyramids and all have had big earthquakes (being in very geologically active areas), so I am not sure what your point is on the catastrophe score.

As for radioactivity depending on Earth’s speed through space and fields it may be passing through, I have heard those theories, but they are theories without much to back them up, as far as I have seen. When they can measure the current speed of the tectonic plate movements, and then can radioactively date the islands in the Emperor Seamount chain:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evoluti...iian_volcanoes

and line up the data to give the picture, a picture that is spectacularly laid out on the ocean floor, it gives pretty good evidence of fairly stable processes, both geologically and atomically. The fossil layers correlate with the radioactive dating and other evidence from evolutionary research, such as how long species survive before going extinct, and so on. In those areas the fringe theorists have a pretty huge burden of proof, to not only invalidate many lines of evidence that are pretty darn robust that independently reinforce each other, but to adduce robust data that supports their theory. On that score, I have seen many pretenders, but few contenders.

The technical problems of FE were solved by Black Science long ago. The problems of FE are not technical. It is that not enough people care enough. The problem is literally that simple.

Best,

Wade

Hi:

This morning will be a little digression into my current reading and I will put that White, Fringe and Black Science stuff in the context of my efforts.

I have been dipping back into my American Holocaust studies. I am most of the way through Ross Hassig’s Mexico and the Spanish Conquest, am about through with David Stannard’s essay in Is the Holocaust Unique?, and have been reading David Henige’s attack on the “High Counters” in his Numbers from Nowhere. This complements my study of the latest prominent attempt to put a number on the 1491 population of the New World, by Massimo Live Bacci in his Conquest. I also read Charles Mann’s 1491 a few years ago, along with related works.

That entire area of study is a brutal one. As I read Hassig’s account of the Aztec conquest (this is my fourth book devoted to the subject, after Cortes and Diaz del Castillo’s first-person accounts and Hugh Thomas’s tome), sometimes I sit back in horror as I consider what the Spanish invasion meant to the New World’s natives. It was worse than Genghis Khan’s Mongol Hordes. The Mongol invasions were devastating, and their brutal sack of cities remains one of history’s most evil deeds, but the Spanish invasion depopulated an entire hemisphere in less than a century.

The academic debate over the pre-contact population is almost exclusively conducted by white men (Russell Thornton and a few others aside), usually descendants of the conquerors who live in this hemisphere secured with that epic carnage. There is something very disquieting about debates about vanished people by the descendants of the vanishers. A work like Henige’s is not nearly so objective as it aspires to be. Livi Bacci’s work is respected, but it is already dated in ways. Researchers are finding that far more natives lived in the Amazon, for instance, than had been previously supposed. Many thousands of square miles of the Amazon basin were terraformed by the natives and the usually thin tropical soils were turned into super-soils where the natives terraformed them. Also, it increasingly looks like the “fortunate” situation in the Amazon, where a startlingly high proportion of plants produced human-digestible food is anything but “natural,” but the result of thousands of years of husbandry by the Indians.

http://www.ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#amazon

Because the Amazon basin does not have much stone, there was no way to build monumental architecture, and the Amazon is one of those regions where it looked like the Indians avoided the standard anthropological dynamic where dense populations invariably led to stratified populations, with the elites sitting on top. That does not necessarily mean that the Amazonian natives were super-enlightened, but that the environment and means of production were not amenable to empire-building. It looks like the political-economic organization of the Amazon was on the order of associated towns, but nobody went about trying to conquer their neighbors and build empires, or at least nobody succeeded, or if anybody did, there is not any evidence of it yet. When Portugal got into the game in Brazil, inspired by the Spanish conquests of the Aztecs and Incas, they initially sought gold-plated cities in the Amazon. After all the invasions came up empty or the invaders simply disappeared, then the Portuguese tried turning Brazil into a big plantation, mainly for raising sugar, which quickly decimated the Indian populations to the point where the Portuguese began importing captured Africans, in one of history’s most evil enterprises:

http://www.ahealedplanet.net/america.htm#portugal

So, the pre-Columbian Amazonian natives have been off the radar of anthropological investigation until relatively recently, with the aboriginal natives dismissed as a relatively few natives scattered through the rainforest. That view is radically-changing, as investigations are revealing thousands of years of civilization in the Amazon, although something that the Spanish, Portuguese and other invaders were not impressed with, as they could not find gold-plated, stratified civilizations to plunder.

Studying that material can really take a lot out of me, and some days I wish that I still drank, kind of.

What does all of that have to do with FE and healing the planet? Plenty, in my book. As I read about the rape and pillage of the New World's civilizations by the Spanish Conquistadors, it is always an energy story. Economic scarcity drove those Spaniards across the ocean, looking for plunder and a life of ease living off of somebody else’s labor. Their entire enterprise was primarily economic, which is always rooted in energy, especially when you develop an eye for it. Gold and silver to the Spaniards were just the means of exchange, and people would be willing to part with the fruit of their labors for it in Europe. That was the entire point of the Spanish enterprise, and an entire hemisphere paid the price of Spanish greed. In the first century of conquest, as the population of the Western Hemisphere declined by about 90%, about 90% of the “value” exported to Europe from the New World was in the form of gold and silver. It is hard to find a more evil enterprise in world history than that one. The depopulation of the Western Hemisphere was a mere side effect of a century-long orgy of greed.

Abolish scarcity, and those enterprises would quickly find nobody willing to participate. Today’s American-inflicted genocides in Iraq and Afghanistan are all about economics, and virtually every invading soldier is a mercenary, although the American underclass has developed ideologies that turn their murderous deeds into a noble undertaking, such are the delusions that people can nurture in order to preserve their self-image.

Economic abundance will not come to humanity without energy abundance. Energy runs the world and always has, and the industrialized world is only made possible by the exploitation of fossil fuels, which are quickly being used up. FE would permanently solve the energy issue for humanity, and horizons barely glimpsed today would begin to become feasible. That is really about the entire point of my work. How will the human animal flower if scarcity was abolished? My upcoming essay will go deep on that issue, far more deeply than my writings have so far hinted at:

http://www.ahealedplanet.net/lessons.htm#advanced

I am not saying that it will necessarily turn out how I envision that it can, but without FE, such directions are not really possible. There is no Golden Age of the human past that has ever been discovered by anthropologists. Energy and economic scarcity has defined the entire human journey, but increasing energy availability has created some interesting trends in human welfare, which I will explore more deeply in my upcoming essay.

How to get to FE is the hard part, and that is largely because almost nobody really understands the role of energy in our world and how that could change if energy was no longer a practical constraint. I have been living with that idea since 1986, and I know that I can barely imagine what that could look like.

Godzilla, however, has a pretty good idea of what it can mean, which is why the lid is kept so tightly on FE and related technologies. If the FE genie got out of the bottle, it would be game over for Godzilla’s game of global domination.

White Science can’t get there from here. It is great at identifying problems, but can be useless in coming up with solutions, especially for the important stuff, because it is captive to political-economic interests in the important stuff, like energy and medicine:

http://www.ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm#developing

White Scientists are heavily indoctrinated into the “laws of physics,” and if you can get them while they are young and drill it into them, they will never want to learn any differently:

http://www.ahealedplanet.net/radleft.htm#nerd

but it is like that in all ideological arenas:

http://www.ahealedplanet.net/intro.htm#blinded

so I really do not pick on White Science much, but I am keenly aware of its limitations. On the subject of FE, almost all White Scientists, if they are even aware of the issue, are heavily-entrenched Level 3s:

http://www.ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#level3

They can sure seem smart, but have completely missed the boat, and in ways that can be incredible to witness:

http://www.ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#naive

Fringe Scientists do not have a prayer on the FE front, either. Most Fringe Scientists are not really scientists at all, but play at it, and many White Scientists who begin to play the Fringe Science game rarely come up with anything of substance. And for those few who do, if they stumble into FE, antigravity and potentially-disruptive technologies, they are quickly dealt with. Godzilla’s bag of tricks to deal with them is vast,

http://www.ahealedplanet.net/advent.htm#make

and violence is a last resort, but resorted to often enough. You can’t sneak past Godzilla, and it is the height of naïveté and foolishness to think that you can. I will never encourage anybody to play that game, and will actively discourage newbies from trying. They simply have no idea what they are getting into. For more than 99% of them, their efforts will fail, usually to life-wrecking effect, long before Godzilla even needs to roll out of bed.

Black Scientists get to play with the toys that the rest of us do not get to benefit from. I am aware of some of how that world operates, and what it does to those who play that game. Only a fool or somebody who sells their soul plays that game. The so-called White Hat faction is arguably an exception, but I am pretty skeptical of them. I am not calling them fake good guys. I know that they exist,

http://www.ahealedplanet.net/camelot.htm#underground

and it is possible that they have protected me at times, but like Godzilla, they operate in the shadows and certainly cannot be relied on to save the day. If about 0.0001% of humanity woke up to abundance and FE in a sentient and productive manner, making FE and heaven on Earth happen would not only become feasible, but it might even be easy.

I am trying a way that I never saw or heard of before, which is that lamb-chorus. It will be heart-centered, it aspires to high sentience, and I have no idea if I will ever be able to help amass such a mythical choir, but I am going to try, and we will see how it goes. If I fail, maybe somebody like Ilie one day will succeed.

Off to work now.

Best,

Wade

You know how everyone has their little "pet peeves list"? For instance, one of mine is the guy who speeds past you on open road, just to immediately make you jam on your breaks as they zip over into your lane for their right hand turn.

Well I've got a new one in the last couple of years, it's growing, and I'm wondering if Wade, or anyone else shares this one. It's power lines, and they're everywhere you look. Look at the frenzied pace of technology in cars, planes, computers, etc. Even talking just the white science aspect. Then look at the power lines in your neighborhood, and it's a century old technology frozen in time. The more it thuddingly sinks in to me the ramifications of the complete suppression of FE technology, the more this unending tangle of relics that surrounds us all almost seems to take on a taunting nature.

Cheers,

Hi:

Briefly, before I go to bed, thanks, AWP, for the thoughts. Most of my fellow travelers have had to deal with feelings of failure. Not that we did not try, but it did not make a dent, not the kind of dent we were aiming for. So it is, when you are trying to change the world in an unprecedented way. My midlife crisis centered on the notion that my life’s work was an exercise in futility:

http://www.ahealedplanet.net/opinions.htm#crisis

and impatience is my Achilles heel, so it has been a challenge, to put it mildly, to walk my path, but we all have our challenges, otherwise we would not be here. We all have had to accept that we likely will see no dent in our lifetimes, and might get a front row seat as humanity goes straight down the toilet and takes most of the ecosphere with it. I think there will be a happy ending to this transition, and I may not live to see it, but we will see. All of us have to answer to our conscience, and the life review after we are done gives us all our sternest judge: ourselves:

http://www.ahealedplanet.net/spirit.htm#afterlife

Hi Fred. Gee, that was quite a straight line that you served up, about Steeves’ Peeves. Yes, it can really be galling to look around and know what is completely unnecessary, other than feathering Godzilla’s nest, and yes, he often gets a big, s**t-eating grin when you notice. Scott gave up his car because he was so disgusted with the situation (4 minutes into this clip):

I live close to a friend’s son who is a Microsoft wiz, who also gave up his car. Some do it.

Yes, Fred, I've noticed. I have often thought of them as a web in the air, tying us down.

Hi:

Just this morning, I read the results of another study on the extinction of the mammoth:

http://www.livescience.com/20894-woo...xtinction.html

As an amateur, but one who has studied the extinction of many human groups as Europe expanded, the prominence of the wooly mammoth extinction debate seems to have deep political overtones. They keep saying that climate change primarily did them in. While I am sure that the populations ebbed and flowed with the glacial intervals, the ice sheets have been advancing and retreating for more than two million years, at about 100,000 year intervals, like clockwork. Elephants had been in Europe and central Asia for pretty much the entire ice age until this last glacier interval:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mammuthus_meridionalis

and as the climate got colder during the glacial intervals, furrier elephants evolved:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steppe_mammoth

Elephant species thrived on every continent except Australia. When the land bridge formed between North and South America just before this ice age began:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_American_Interchange

Elephants easily migrated to South America:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cuvieronius

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stegomastodon

and thrived for millions of years, until humans arrived, and then they quickly went extinct. Wherever humans have appeared in the past 50,000 years, as their increasing tool-making sophistication and social organization made them Earth’s most fearsome predator, all the large animals quickly went extinct. They would have been the most logical source of food for the invading humans, and one of the first energy resource windfall opportunities that humans plundered until it was all gone. Humans have done it in the historical era, too, as they “discovered” islands previously uninhabited, such as the Polynesian Expansion, Madagascar, and other islands:

http://www.ahealedplanet.net/upcoming.htm#australia

Elephants are one of Earth’s smartest species and highly adaptable, as evidence by their thriving in all places on the planet that they could get to. Their trunks may rank second to hands in an animal’s ability to manipulate its environment. The obsession with the mammoth extinction is a big misdirection, IMO. It is kind of like wanting to study the chimpanzee. Some species become kind of “rock star” species where an inordinate level attention gets focused, and so it is with the mammoth. The South American elephant extinctions, and the fact that northern elephants had survived interglacial periods just fine in the past, really puts a dent in the climate change dynamic hypothesis for extinction. Sure, the populations likely ebbed and flowed with the changing environment, as happens with all species over time, but the northern elephants going extinct have the same prime factor that all the other megafauna did: the arrival of humans.

Going to work now.

Best,

Wade

Hi:

I am going to be fairly quiet in the coming days, as I travel, but I wanted to get back onto what I earlier threatened, and give previews of my upcoming essay. Life is sustained by energy-driven matter flows. Chemical reactions power life processes. Life, however, “figured out” how to make reactions happen by using less energy, and that is how enzymes were born. If you took a jumble of atoms and molecules and wanted them to react, on their own, at random, the reactions would be very unlikely. What enzymes do is essentially play matchmaker between atoms and molecules, to make them react, by physically bringing them into contact in the right way. Some key reactions in life processes happen a billion times faster with an enzyme encouraging the reaction. In inorganic chemistry, the equivalent is called a catalyst.

Enzymes can look like Rube Goldberg devices. Look at this depiction of a human enzyme:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glyoxalase_I

Enzymes make life processes more energy efficient. Indeed, without enzymes, life might not exist, and certainly not complex life. Life on Earth has come to be dominated by the most energy-intensive animals ever: mammals and birds. A mammal typically burns about thirty times the energy per hour that a reptile does. That high energy usage is thought to give mammals and birds high stamina, so they became high-performance animals.

Also, that high energy consumption in humans allows us to have high-powered brains. And like computers with increasingly-powerful CPUs, the energy issue is critical. The human brain uses about 20% of the body’s energy, which is vastly disproportionate to the brain’s size. The human brain is the most turbocharged organ in the body, with a voracious energy appetite. Nick Lane’s Life Ascending explores that territory.

Pound for pound, a eukaryotic cell (the complex ones that all multi-cellular life forms have) burns energy 100,000 times faster than the sun produces it (see Oliver Morton’s Eating the Sun, p. 91). Life is sustained by the acquisition, preservation and consumption of energy. Almost all aspects of life forms can be explained in terms of the energy game. If energy is not the actual goal in a structure or behavior, it is at least the means. There may not be an exception to that dynamic.

Of course, humans discovered how to manipulate their environment, beginning with the control of fire, which is an energy-intensive activity that far exceeded that of any other life form in Earth’s history, and it is thought today that cooking may have actually led to the appearance of humans:

http://www.ahealedplanet.net/upcoming.htm#cooking

Cooking was a way to predigest food, and not only reduce the digestive energy that it took for the human organism to obtain its energy, but humanity’s increasingly energy efficient methods provided the time needed to use our brains and hands in new ways. A chimpanzee, for instance, spends nearly all of its waking hours finding food and eating it. The average American child spends less than an hour a day in that pursuit. That increasing energy efficiency led to civilization and the complex lives that we lead today. That will all come to an end if we run out of energy, and in the industrialized world, that primarily means the energy provided by burning hydrocarbons, and we are burning though what life forms and geological processes took hundreds of millions of years to create, and we are doing it about a million times as fast as it was created. The brick wall looms directly ahead, and unless we find a substitute for fossil fuels, and fast, we will burn out in spectacular fashion, like an exploding supernova.

Until we solve the energy issue, the rest won’t matter. After several years of playing the Paul Revere of free energy, Brian wondered aloud if humans were really a sentience species:

http://www.ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#revere

when I heard him say that, I sadly understood:

http://www.ahealedplanet.net/brianmem.htm#sentience

The energy game really is the only one that matters on Earth right now. All the rest is just a sideshow. The more people who can raise their sentience and begin to understand how the world really works and what is important, the better chance that we have of turning the corner. Part of me wishes that I was not living in this era, but in this one, where we finally became fully sentient:

http://www.ahealedplanet.net/visions.htm#roads1

but I have this suspicion that how I perform in this lifetime is going to determine whether I “make the grade” and get to live in a world like that in the future. If the mystical material is to be believed, I asked for it.

I want at least one lifetime in a reality like that before my soul decides that it learned enough from the Earth Game, and I am looking for others who want to help realities like that manifest. We are not going to blindly stumble into a world like that, but it will take the best that we can muster, that heart-centered sentience that I write about so often.

I have a busy few days ahead of me, so you may not hear from me again until late next week.

Best,

Wade

Safe, trouble free and happy travels Wade.

Awesome post Wade. I was not good friends with organic chemistry but your post has renewed my interest in it. An enzyme making a reaction happen a billion times faster is no small feat!!!

Speaking of enzymes, I'd really like to know how did blind matter with no consciousness "figured that out"...

[Wade Frazier]

Hi:

OK, I have a few minutes before I jump on a plane. Thanks Sandy for the wishes.

Hi Ilie:

Yes, I often put “figured out” and similar terms in quotes. Even when I read scientists describe those dynamics, they say stuff like “learned.” Enlightened scientists, IMO, will say that the story of evolution is one of process and history, not intent:

http://www.ahealedplanet.net/upcoming.htm#materialist

and a “blind watchmaker” theorist like Dawkins is disliked in his field. I was a little surprised to repeatedly read how disliked he is by his fellow scientists, and not trusted (I most recently read it in Richard Francis's Why Men Won't Ask for Directions). If you read good White Science works, what comes through clearly is that White Science really is certain of little, with plenty of mystery and a poor understanding of many processes. For instance, two of the biggest mysteries in evolutionary theory are how life came into being and how new species appear. Nobody really knows, although there are theories that are far from universally accepted. Speciation has never been observed, nor has the appearance of life from inanimate chemicals. I don’t buy much, if any, of the Creationist Science stuff that is out there, as it is usually trying to make the Bible right, but Creation is a big place, and White Science is playing in a pretty small puddle at this time.

Again, do a remote viewing in a Silva class:

and you will never buy the materialist worldview. You will know differently, and nobody can ever take your knowledge from you. Watch a UFO light up on request:

http://www.ahealedplanet.net/ufo.htm#call

and you will never take Phil Klass and his debunker pals seriously again. There really is no substitute for experience in these realms. I am not into faith myself. The nature of consciousness is the great mystery that White Science has not even begun to explore. That is why I say that while their materialistic theories chalk consciousness up to an "emergent" byproduct of chemistry, White Science will be playing a small game. Black Science certainly does not deny consciousness, but they often play evil games with it, which is the fastest ticket to hell that I know of: using paranormal abilities to hurt people.

OK, time to go catch a plane.

Best,

Wade

I know exactly what you mean Wade. Once I directly experienced consciousness outside of my body for the first time, there wasn't a person on Earth who could convince me that it's simply not possible. They may as well try and convince me that there is not really a nose in the middle of my face.

As for playing evil games with consciousness being the fastest ticket to hell, I have three comments to add to that: Yes, yes, and yes.

Safe journeys my friend,
Fred

Hey Fred,

There really isn't a nose in the middle of your face as it is part of your illusion of self.

[Fred Steeves]

Oh god Sandy, now you've gone and reminded me of the old gag parents play on their kids. Remember this? I've got your nose?

Sorry Wade, I just couldn't help myself...Besides, Sandy made me do it...

Hi:

I got back late last night from that biggest of big cities, New York. My hotel was right at Times Square and Broadway. It is a big tourist area. I only left my hotel once to get something to eat. The World Trade Center towers are largely rebuilt, dominating the Manhattan skyline again. As I took it in, and the long drives in an out of Manhattan through the rabbit warren streets, a saying of mine kept coming to mind: “And they call it civilization.” In a world based on FE and abundance, places like NYC will cease to exist. I look forward to the day that all of those skyscrapers are cycled into the element bank and Manhattan Island is turned back into the forest that it used to be before the Europeans invaded. I kept hearing people call NYC a great city. Just how is it great? I see it as similar to a field slave moving up to being a house slave, and relishing how much better life is. Humanity’s greatest urban achievements are nothing at all, when compared to the world we could have, the world that Godzilla and his minions systematically prevent from manifesting. And almost nobody is the wiser. Visiting places like Manhattan really drive that home for me.

On a positive note, on the plane and in my hotel room I read a book that I grabbed off of my shelf before I jumped on the plane, titled, On Methuselah’s Trail – Living Fossils and the Great Extinctions by Peter Ward. He is a local boy, but that is not why I read his work – this is the fourth book that I have now read that he has authored or co-authored – but he is one of the better scientists who can write for the lay audience. He is about the world’s most prominent mass-extinction researcher:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_Ward_(paleontologist)

I also made significant progress on my trip on what I planned was my last book before I really got cracking on my essay. It is John Lunine’s Earth – Evolution of a Habitable World. It is a college textbook that I saw referenced repeatedly during my researches on geophysics and early life on Earth. I am fired up to get that book finished in the near future and get cracking on that essay. The framework that all scientists like Ward and Lunine work with, when looking into the evolution of Earth or the life on it, is that is all about energy driven matter flows. Life “learned” how to manipulate those energy-driven flows for its benefit. That is the centerpiece of all of scientific investigations that I have seen, and I found that scientists, especially the generalists, can rather easily see through the financial economy as a game of smoke and mirrors played by the elite. Life on Earth and the real economy runs on energy, not money.

I almost got strip-searched getting on the plane to come home. You practically have to strip already, with shoes, belts, watches, rings, and everything else removed (I also take off my hearing aids), and pockets emptied. You have to put your toiletries in a clear bag, as everything goes through the X-ray machines. No water allowed, but you have to buy it in the terminal. Since I just produced my ID to even get into line to get searched, I had my ID and plane ticket in my pocket. I took that out and held it over my head as I went through the X-ray machine. So, I have been stripped as far as I can without having a body cavity search, but apparently the X-ray machine caught some bulge in one of my pants pockets. Last year, after the X-Ray machine, one of the blue-gloved TSA people actually reached down my pants. Yesterday, it was not as bad, but I had to pull my pocket inside-out, as the guy kept feeling it for something. My pants pocket was one of those with a little pocket in the pocket, to maybe hold a key. It looks like that pocket in a pocket set off their X-ray machine. He and I spent a minute, with my pants pocket turned inside-out, kneading it, him running his hands down my leg, looking for that bulge in my pocket, that he finally decided must have been a piece of lint at the bottom of my pocket. That was just a normal event in getting on a plane these days. I never liked travel much, but I have absolutely hated it since 9/11. My nation is crazy.

Time to get ready to go racing with the rats. The next six weeks of my job will be crazy, so I will likely be fairly quiet, but I have a few posts to make that were running through my head as I traveled, and they are coming in the next week or so.

Best,

Wade

You know how everyone has their little "pet peeves list"? For instance, one of mine is the guy who speeds past you on open road, just to immediately make you jam on your breaks as they zip over into your lane for their right hand turn.

Well I've got a new one in the last couple of years, it's growing, and I'm wondering if Wade, or anyone else shares this one. It's power lines, and they're everywhere you look. Look at the frenzied pace of technology in cars, planes, computers, etc. Even talking just the white science aspect. Then look at the power lines in your neighborhood, and it's a century old technology frozen in time. The more it thuddingly sinks in to me the ramifications of the complete suppression of FE technology, the more this unending tangle of relics that surrounds us all almost seems to take on a taunting nature.

Cheers,
Fred

Like the human body, we build up waste and then release some all at once.

Changes in human flow or in this case...human technology (technological change)... tend to be the same way. Part of our circle of 'doing', one might say.

the big thing here, is to erase the shape of the pyramid structure erected by those who wish for centralized power and their maintenance of it.

Made you just bursting at the seams to belt out a hardy rendition of "God Bless America" did it Wade?

Welcome home!
