    Hi Guys:

    Yes, cold here, warm where you are (actually, where I live, it is normal, but last summer was warmer than usual). The unsophisticated Global Warming “skeptics” usually seize on regional variation to say, “I rest my case.” It is a bogus argument, but I see it all the time, and even scientists play that game, usually those on the hydrocarbon lobby’s payroll. Or they seize on the obvious alarm of climate scientists to say: “They are alarmed! Alarm is unscientific! Go back to sleep, all is well.”

    We are getting “hundred year floods” in the mountains near my home every five years or so these days. The hurricane that wiped out New York, the worst in its history, is evidence of long-term warming. The scientists who want to keep studying it, demanding more data, until there is 99.99% certainly before doing anything, are like the malaria “skeptics” of long ago:

    Hi:

    I am taking a little break from writing the essay, but feeling a lot of pressure to get it done ASAP without having the quality suffer. One thing that becomes clear about the journey of life on Earth is that it is an energy journey. From the photosynthesis that forms the ecosphere’s foundation, to the Sun that provides the energy that makes it all happen, to the radioactivity that powers plate tectonics, to concepts such as Icehouse and Greenhouse Earth, to metabolism and thermoregulation, to food acquisition strategies and abilities, to protection from predation and grazing, to propagating the game through procreation, to powering larger brains to better navigate the game, it is all about energy.

    When it comes to the human journey, it becomes even more about energy. From controlling fire to killing off all the easy meat, to domesticating plants and animals, to razing forests and smelting metal, to harnessing wind and water power, to harnessing hydrocarbon energy, to directly harnessing solar energy, to harnessing the energy locked in atomic nuclei, to tapping the Zero-Point Field, it is all an energy game. And cognition rose with it, at least in ways. Reaching a new level of cognition seems to be required if humanity is going to make the leap to FE and abundance, and it will need to begin in the heart.

    Comprehensive thinking is not just about reaching complex understandings; the bogus teachings need to be recognized and discarded, first, such as all of those scarcity-based ideologies we are fed:

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

    I have watched people raised with religion become materialists, and watched materialists become religious fanatics. I have watched so-called liberals become right-wing nutcases. In those kinds of flip-flops, Orwell’s censored observation in the preface to Animal Farm is apropos:

    "To exchange one orthodoxy for another is not necessarily an advance. The enemy is the gramophone mind, whether or not one agrees with the record that is being played at the moment."

    http://www.ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#gramophone

    It can be called a failing of the mind, but I always found that it began in the heart. Seizing on one ideology, and then discarding it for another, might seem like a quest for the truth, but in reality is a quest for security, seeking a safe haven where one really does not have to think. All of those havens are also scarcity-based and egocentric, where the adherent gets material benefits and egocentric strokes for playing along.

    There is no end to the charlatanry in all of those “isms,” from the lies about national founders:

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

    to religious and spiritual hucksterism (there is “real” stuff there, which genuine spiritual masters know well, but very few of them have walked on Earth, and organized religions are all rackets, to one degree or another), to the flacks for capitalism, from the very beginning when the classical economists covered up the violent and greedy acquisition of “capital” that began that entire racket, to the false foundations of materialism, rationalism, and scientism, enforced by organized "skepticism" and its patrons.

    Godzilla’s antics are merely capitalism on steroids, and ideologues of all stripes deny his existence, or believe that he is judiciously using the power granted him by a sleeping humanity, and the Young Warriors who think that Godzilla can be defeated in battle are the most delusional and dangerous of all:

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

    Godzilla is only a symptom of our malaise, not a cause. Godzilla has achieved mastery of a sort:

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

    For all of that forebrain growth in the human line, the part of the brain that runs the human limbic system is no larger than in our great ape cousins:

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

    It is where the “primitive” behaviors originate from, and when humans are in fear, that part of the brain takes over, and that seems to be why almost nobody can grok FE and abundance, because they have to let go of their scarcity-based comforters to get there. We can’t drag our scarcity-based baggage with us to abundance, and it took me many years to understand, but when the dust finally settled in Ventura:

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

    I was ready to begin to learn it, although I began questioning my indoctrination very early on:

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

    Raising our consciousness may be what this entire journey of life on Earth is about, if mystical sources are to be believed. Even though I began my journey with a mystical orientation:

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

    I came to the sentience issue the long way around of going out in the real world and trying to change it. It was only after being handed my head that I began on the more secular route of understanding, realizing the pack of lies I had been sold during my indoctrination and conditioning:

    http://www.ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#big

    From scientist-in-training to mystic to businessman to FE activist to historian to studying science again, in ways it has come full circle for me as I write what may be the last big essay of my lifetime (this one will be book-length). My financial pressures may well see to that, and my brain is not as nimble as it used to be.

    Even though this thread will reach a half-million page views in the next day or so, I know that my audience is and will continue to be a limited one. Very few can handle what I am serving up, but that is also by design. Only those who can lay aside their scarcity-based teddy bears can begin to understand abundance before the means are delivered to their doors. Those who think that the masses are going to wake up with talk have not been out there trying it out. After Brian O played the Paul Revere of FE for several years, he openly wondered if humans are a sentient species:

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

    and I have heard virtually the identical comment from everybody who has played on the high road to FE. It just comes with the territory. People will begin to wake up to the idea of abundance when FE is delivered to their homes, or they can walk down the street and see it, just like Machiavelli observed:

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

    That is why chatting up friends, family, and colleagues about FE never goes anywhere, and is even dangerous, as FE means the end of the world as we know it. With FE and abundance, this kind of world begins to come into view:

    https://projectavalon.net/forum4/show...l=1#post672748

    but almost all that anybody sees when they begin to understand is that their niche in the world that they have worked so hard to carve out for themselves will vanish. As crazy as it might seem, that is Godzilla’s fear, too. He would rather rule in hell than be a regular member of heaven, and he knows that his game is over if FE got loose. Economically-independent people can’t be controlled by playing the puppet strings of scarcity. Godzilla would lose his key leverage point over humanity. But virtually nobody is threatening to rock the boat as it heads for the waterfalls, and for the tiny fraction that is pursuing FE, they are all mired in scarcity-based approaches. Dennis is the best there ever was at going after FE, but he has appealed to all three of the basic population management ideologies that are used in the USA:

    http://www.ahealedplanet.net/conun.htm#obvious

    and gotten precisely nowhere with them. And when aspirants apply for patents, raise money from investors, think they can sneak past Godzilla if they are clever enough, think that they can vanquish Godzilla in battle, think that Godzilla died in his sleep or is sleeping, think that they can organize a stampede if they get the carrots and sticks lined up properly, think they can become the Bill Gates of FE and so on (Levels 6, 7, 9, 10, and 11 http://www.ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#level6 ), they are heading for defeat, with the efforts usually self-destructing as greed, paranoia, fear, delusions of grandeur and other pitfalls await, and all Godzilla usually needs to do is sit back and watch it collapse from within. None of those approaches have tried the enlightenment route, and I can understand why, at least until now. People actually pursuing enlightenment are a vanishingly small fraction of the human species, veritable needles in haystacks. But there is a new technology with a global reach, and nobody has ever used it before to try to find those needles and get them to all focus on the human journey’s root issue, and the one that had better be solved ASAP or the entire human species will go down the tubes while taking most complex life with it.

    Will my approach have a prayer? Beats me, but I did not see anybody trying it, and I am trying to fill a gaping hole that I saw in all efforts. The scientists and inventors all have tunnel vision, firmly within their paradigm, naïve or paranoid, and/or trying to get rich and famous. Dennis is the best there ever was at the businessman’s approach:

    https://projectavalon.net/forum4/show...rec#post694872

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

    and should have been dead twenty times over so far in his journey, and like Brian O:

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

    Dennis has now effectively been run out of the USA, the Land of the Free, after already being run out of his home state:

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

    and barely surviving working in the town I was raised in:

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

    which I never want to see again. The businessman’s approach to FE won’t work, not in this world, and neither will the tinkerer approach, the religion approach, the flag-waving approach, the stampede approach, the billionaire approach, the Young Warrior approach, and so on. I have seen them all, mostly up close and personally, and watched them all go down in flames, and got scorched a few times myself.

    The approach I am taking today is not only an avenue that I did not see anybody try, but it is the only one in alignment with the kind of world I want to live in. All the others are trying to drag scarcity and fear into a world of abundance and love, so they have already sown the seeds of their self-destruction.

    As I have been writing of late:

    https://projectavalon.net/forum4/show...l=1#post779835

    I am becoming an old man, and this may be my last attempt at making a dent. I will end the project rather than see it go down the paths of disaster that I have already witnessed many times. That is why I am going about it like I am, and you can tell that it is not easy for me, not with all the inventor-itis posts, the “let’s do something now” posts, the “let’s be heroes" posts, and the like. I fully accept that I may only be planting seeds in my lifetime, and it will be up to others to raise them to harvest stage. If I can’t make a dent, what I hope is that others will take my approach and do it better. Finding this stuff out the hard way is something that I can’t recommend, as it is not easy to survive the lessons, and I am definitely damaged by the journey, as has everyone on the meat-grinder path.

    But the good news is that I have been seeing some at Avalon understand what I am doing, or at least understand it well enough to poke their noses carefully into some of it, find out that I know what I am writing about, and then eagerly try to digest more. There is no teacher like experience, but getting experience on the high road to FE is life-threatening. Probably the only reason why I am able to do what I do is that I was young enough when I went through the meat grinder so that I could survive the experience. I saw many wrecked and prematurely ended lives on my journey, and I will do my best so that I have no more of those on my conscience:

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

    The FE field does not need any more martyrs to sober up newbies to the risks:

    http://www.ahealedplanet.net/war.htm#business

    and if newbies just need to see blood and guts and smell it before they begin to understand, they are not in my target audience.

    A day of chores awaits me.

    Best,

    Wade

    Hi:

    Briefly, on the megafauna extinctions, which you have been seeing me write about plenty. A highly respected paper on the subject is this one:

    http://bio.classes.ucsc.edu/bioe107/...0al%202004.pdf

    where relatively impartial scientists looked at the state-of-the-art evidence ten years ago. I have seen this study cited by scientists who favor the climate explanation, saying that the paper helps their case. When I looked at the data, I sure could not see why. On page 71, they have a chart of the continents and what the data shows. The African and Eurasian extinctions were minor, compared to the other continents. But even so, there is not much African data. The European extinction is the only one where climate seems to be significantly implicated, but almost all the data is provisional. For Australia, the data is robust, and humans are 100% implicated. For North America, the data is robust, and the cause is almost all human, with very little climate effect. For South America, it says the data is insufficient, but South America did not have continental ice sheets, and from what I have seen, humans are the primary cause. Elephants were always highly successful everywhere they went, and South America was full of elephants when humans arrived. They all quickly went extinct, just like they did in North America. There is no way that climate is going to be the primary cause for South America:

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quatern...#South_America

    All scientists agree that all the extinctions after humans arrived on all islands were all human caused, even big islands like New Zealand and Madagascar. All scientists concede that humans have driven many continental species to extinction or its brink in the historical era (passenger pigeon, in the greatest flocks Earth ever saw, and the bison was reduced to less than a thousand before the rest were spared, for instance).

    So, the only significant doubt about human agency is Europe and South America, but I don’t have all that much. They would be the only exceptions in the rise and domination of humans. Humans were always the primary variable, as far as I can see, and I have not seen a scientist not from the two camps come away doubting that humans were the primary variable.

    Best,

    Wade

    Hi:

    I have been engaged in a little correspondence lately, and it is germane to part of the essay that I have yet to write. I first read of New Zealand’s Dr.-Seuss-like pre-human fauna in Jared Diamond’s The Third Chimpanzee in the early 2000s. While I had written on startling cultural differences in the New World native versus European cultures:

    http://www.ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#culture

    I also was reading a lot of what I would have to call apologetics regarding Native American and “primitive” cultures in general that kind of idealized them. Diamond’s book was one of the early ones I had read that studied early human civilizations and hunter-gatherer peoples, and found that the idealization was off the mark, a kind of wistful looking back to some Golden Age that never was.

    Basically, humans have not lived in harmony with nature (or each other) since they learned to control fire, up to two million years ago. It started out on a small scale, of protection from predators and warmth as proto-humans left the tropical environs of Africa, as well as cooking food, which fueled the growing human brain. Early on, however, humans also learned that they could transform the environments through burning the forests, as well as flush out game. This kind of activity goes back at least 70K years. When humans invaded Australia about 50K years ago, they quickly drove all the megafauna to extinction, and seem to have largely done it by burning the forests and other vegetation.

    Later human migrations to the Western Hemisphere (12K years ago), and to the Mammoth Steppe in Eurasia (30-40K years ago), show that behaviorally modern humans had developed the toolset and social organization to become Earth’s super-predators, and wherever they appeared in the past 40K years, they drove the elephants to extinction. Elephants are one of Earth’s smartest animals, with a huge, prehensile trunk, and they were likely the most successful mammals of all time, before humans arrived. Elephants lived in all of Earth’s inhabitable biomes that they could get to, for the past several million years, and in Northern Eurasia and the Americas, they all went extinct right after modern humans arrived. Elephants were only the most notable animals. Virtually all large animals went extinct wherever humans arrived in the past 50K years. And there is suspicion that this pattern is far older. When those “hobbits” appeared on Flores Island nearly a million years ago:

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

    there was a dwarf elephant species there, along with some other megafauna, and they all went extinct after the hobbits arrived. And the hobbits themselves went extinct right after modern humans arrived. In fact, it looks like modern humans may have driven Homo erectus and Neanderthals to extinction, although those human extinctions are hotly contested these days.

    But the pattern seems pretty clear, in that humans swept all other animals before them, as they drove the easy meat and competitors to extinction, wherever they appeared.

    So, as with many other animals in the history of life on Earth, there really was a short-lived Golden Age of the Hunter-Gatherer, which lasted until all the easy meat was gone. Not long after the ice sheets melted and humans began to dominate the fresh new biomes, the easy meat was gone again, and in several places around the world, humans domesticated plants and animals, likely due to the desperation of population pressures. In some places, such as Australia, the natives never learned domestication, but in most places, they did. In Eurasia and Africa, where humans evolved alongside the megafauna, a substantial portion of the megafauna survived, and they became the world’s first draft animals. In the Americas, the first natives exterminated almost all the candidates for draft animals, such as elephants, horses, and camels, and the llama was the closest thing to a draft animal, and the largest domesticated animal in the Americas.

    Wherever plants and animals were domesticated, within a few thousand years cities developed. The appearance of civilization was dependent on a local and stable energy source, and domesticates provided it (salmon provided it for the Pacific Northwest natives, in one of the only civilizations that was not built on domestication, as were the Californian natives, but they were rare exceptions). However, those early civilizations were never very stable, basically because they cut out their feet from underneath them as they wiped out local environments, forests in particular, and then exhausted the soils, and the civilization collapsed. The Middle East is full of ancient cities that collapsed and are in deserts today, and the weather was not to blame. The earliest city known, Eridu:

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

    was a seashore community. Its ruins are 150 miles inland today, buried under all the silt of upland deforestation over the thousands of years since then. All the early cities of Sumeria met the same fate. In Syria, hundreds of ancient cities lie in ruins in their self-made deserts. The pattern was repeated continuously. I was just reading yesterday, in the book Trophic Cascades, that all of the world’s civilized areas are extremely deforested, which should be no great surprise.

    Humans have never lived in harmony with their environments, as they wrested energy from them, usually with no thought to tomorrow. In the pre-contact Western Hemisphere, there was ecosystem management that was sustainable, such as how the Indians burned the Eastern Woodlands and Great Plains, to keep them conducive to supporting game animals, or how they terraformed the Amazon with Terra preta:

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

    so there were some sustainable civilizations before Europeans arrived, and many Europeans wanted to live like Indians rather than live like Europeans, and for good reason, as Europe was kind of a hell on Earth back then, but that is relative.

    The Indians of the Eastern Woodlands had not known agriculture for all that long, and they had to move their villages every generation, as they burned up all the firewood. Today, anthropologists think that the Western Hemisphere was a few thousand years behind the Old World, as they had no draft animals, and their agricultural surplus was not as large. But they were heading in the same direction as all other civilizations, and the collapse of the Mayan and Anasazi civilizations, as well as the collapse of Cahokia, showed the same old story, of environmental over-taxation which reduced the resilience of the civilizations, making them vulnerable to climate fluctuations and other disruptions, and the Mayan and Anasazi civilizations collapsed. New Agers liked to say that the Mayans and Anasazi “ascended,” but the archeological record tells a different story. Where Chaco Canyon is was once forested, but the Anasazi deforested everything for fifty miles around, building their civilization, and when the drought collapsed it, that area remains a desert today, nearly a thousand years later. That is a pattern long seen in the Old World, where early archeologists marveled over all those ruins of great cities built in deserts. They now know that the cities made the deserts, deserts that still exist.

    When they finally deciphered the Mayan writings, it was the same old story of Machiavellian politics and wars as the resource base collapsed. Also, in all early civilizations, male elites dominated, and they all had enhanced reproductive rights, which is a polite way of saying that they all had harems. Also, in all of those early civilizations, religion began, and all early religions deified the elite, to justify their status atop the heap. I do not think that anthropologists have found an exception. And those behaviors are also evident when the great apes are studied. The bonobos are the only great apes that don’t sexually coerce the females:

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

    and it was their economy that allowed for the changes, much as women have been liberated by industrialization.

    So, the pining for the hunter-gatherer ideal, or the village ideal, is a fantasy of those who see what humans are doing to the Earth and each other. There were no “good old days,” I am sorry to say.

    But with FE and abundance, this kind of world can come into view:

    https://projectavalon.net/forum4/show...l=1#post672748

    and that has been my game since I was sixteen:

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

    Anybody else interested in helping it manifest?

    When I finish my essay, I will be initiating a conversation in my own forum, which will take the level far above what you have seen at Avalon so far, and maybe the first notes of a choir will be heard. We’ll see.

    Best,

    Wade

    Hi:

    Today, this page reached a half million page views, less than a week after my three-year anniversary at Avalon. I am thankful that Avalon has provided me this opportunity, and especially to Bill, the author of the feast. I hope the reading experience has been worth it. Even when I get my own forum going, I can see myself having a presence at Avalon as long as there is an Avalon and I am writing. This is the first friendly venue I have encountered on the Internet, and is really the first time that I have interacted with the quasi-public in this way since I removed my email address from my site in 2002:

    http://www.ahealedplanet.net/critics.htm#troll

    Believe me, there are legions of people in cyberspace, some on Godzilla’s payroll (and maybe a few that have infiltrated Avalon but have to behave themselves here), who would love to disrupt what I am doing, and I am thankful for Avalon keeping them at bay.

    Best,

    Wade

    Hi:

    I have a little time today for another post. This one is going to be on evolution, consciousness, materialists, scientists, “skeptics,” and the intelligent design people. I have written plenty before on the real world of science:

    http://www.ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#real

    and the many myths about it:

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

    In my studies for this essay, I have read many scientific papers and specialist literature, as well as books both by science writers and professional scientists writing for the lay audience. A very common observation in those works is disabusing the reader that scientists have any particular virtue, are really that interested in the truth of matters, and the like. One recent passage that I read by a professional scientist stated:

    “Scientific meetings can degenerate into shouting matches and name-calling, although the preferred method of attack is to demolish one’s opponent with a witty riposte.”

    I recently wrote that the current structure of mainstream science makes them useless on the FE front:

    https://projectavalon.net/forum4/show...l=1#post774788

    To some degree, their blindness and useless is understandable, but that does not make it less real. Brian O was a big advocate of scientific study of “paranormal” phenomena:

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

    but so far, I have lost the battle with the hack editors at Wikipedia, who have renamed my “Frontiers of Science” section of Brian’s bio to “Alternative Beliefs”:

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brian_O...native_beliefs

    which is not only an inaccurate and misleading title, but it implies that Brian was into “beliefs.” One day, if I ever get anybody to help me on Brian’s “final word” in the moon landings:

    http://www.ahealedplanet.net/brianbio.htm#statement

    I will take on the “editors” again. One of them I am pretty sure works in some kind of Godzilla-like capacity, and that just comes with the territory. So, mainstream science is in a straightjacket in very important ways, easily manipulated by Godzilla’s minions to stay away from the important stuff, and scientists have readily acquiesced to the herd management. But at least they have some kind of ideal, a code to live up to, even if they often fail. All professions are like that, so I am not really picking on scientists too much. But I have seen “radicals” and “environmentalists” worship mainstream science, as if it was some temple of truth. That is partly why they are Level 2s and 3s:

    http://www.ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#level2

    But that does not make fringe scientists right, and most of the fringe stuff is bogus, in one way or another, either by incompetence, unconscious corruption by trying to make a buck, or conscious hucksterism, out to dupe the lay people who digest such stuff. I have seen it all.

    But that does not make the “skeptics” right, either. In fact, organized skepticism is actually anti-science. They never do any original work (not after they were caught cooking the data long ago), but just attack any scientist who strays from the herd. On the so-called paranormal, they are literally anti-scientific, claiming a priori that there is no paranormal phenomenon worth subjecting to actual scientific testing, and Randi’s bogus antics don’t count. My personal encounters with “skeptics” showed me that they are perhaps the most dishonest bunch I have yet encountered:

    http://www.ahealedplanet.net/dennis.htm#libel

    and that is saying something. Their recent shameless flacking for the bogus Warren Commission:

    https://projectavalon.net/forum4/show...l=1#post767044

    is typical of the “skeptics,” who are “skeptical” of anything that is not establishment dogma. They are the professional descendants of the Catholic Church’s inquisitors:

    http://www.ahealedplanet.net/war.htm#inquisition

    Similarly, instead of being the patron saint of the FE movement, prominent members of the FE community shamelessly lie about Dennis:

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

    These are all just more evidence of the primary lesson of my journey, that personal integrity is the world’s scarcest commodity:

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

    Materialism is a religion, although materialists pretend that it isn’t, as with all ideologues. Everybody that I respect in the FE field was to one extent or another, a mystic, and it was due to their experiences, not some belief game or reading spiritual literature. Brian O had his awakening performing the same exercise that I did:

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

    and once you have those kinds of experiences, you know that materialism is a faith built on a false foundation. The Silva class wrecked many White Science careers.

    But that does not make the intelligent design people right, either. Evolution is a real phenomenon, but its often-attendant materialism is what is bogus.

    Back in the 1990s, as I was exploring the fringes, stumbling into the Velikovsky controversy, among others, people began contacting me, to sell me their creationist science. I spent time looking into it, and came away with the idea that calling it “science” was a charitable interpretation. What it really does is ape the methods of science, to a degree, but the goal always seemed to boil down to, “Because my Bible told me so.” In recent years, I have perused more of that kind of stuff, particularly after doing all the paleobiology studies. The creationist “science,” also called intelligent design these days, is still the Bible-based tripe that I saw in the 1990s. IMO, the nature of consciousness is far too subtle to be productively engaged by the materialists and the religious fanatics. They are simply two fanatic camps going at it, and the truth is lost in the battle.

    But that does not mean that Jesus was a not a spiritual master, or that there is not some truth in the mythology of Genesis and the Old Testament. But literalist interpretations of ancient texts is the path of delusion, whether it is trying to make the case of ancient catastrophes, ET visitors, and other events. Whatever was in the sky that night:

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

    was definitely responding to James Gilliland, and in my subsequent visits, I was treated to strange stuff, for sure. Something is definitely happening there, and when Brian O snooped into the UFO issue, it nearly cost him his life:

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

    and Ed Mitchell:

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edgar_M...#Views_on_UFOs

    and Gordon Cooper:

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gordon_...#UFO_sightings

    are not exactly a couple of conspiracist flakes.

    But that does not mean that many who are telling the world of UFO reality are legitimate, either, or that Earth is hollow, and so on. I have seen the most irresponsible yarn-spinning by people who claim to have inside information. Most of that stuff is disinformation, either the purveyors doing it as part of their jobs, being used as dupes by insiders, of just making the crap up for their notoriety and duping the masses, especially the conspiracists.

    But that does not mean that the out-of-this-world technology that the Disclosure Project witnesses speak of is not real. I know some of it is, and probably most of it, because a close friend once got a show:

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

    and scientists close to me saw what Sparky Sweet had, for instance:

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

    The FE stuff is very real. But that does not make the many FE tinkerers out there legit in that they really tapped the ZPF. It is a lot harder than it looks, and even when a tinkerer taps the ZPF, if he is not immediately taken out by Godzilla’s carrots and sticks:

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

    he never gets anywhere, as he needs many millions of dollars to continue along that development path before he gets to anything commercially viable, and that is partly why nothing has made it past prototype stage, and the good stuff all ends up in Godzilla’s Golden Hoard.

    Navigating those realms can be a bewildering task, and the naive and unwary can easily get sucked into the many rabbit holes that await.

    Time for chores.

    Best,

    Hi:

    As an addendum to my last post yesterday, renaming my “Frontiers of Science” section of Brian’s bio to “Alternative Beliefs” is a rather gentle corruption compared to what I have seen the “skeptics” do repeatedly. Mr. Skeptic’s deeply dishonest rendering of Dennis’s story:

    http://www.ahealedplanet.net/dennis.htm#libel

    was so grotesquely performed that he seemed like a rank amateur, but there is plenty of circumstantial evidence, as well as some outright accusations with evidence to support them, that he is a professional:

    http://www.ahealedplanet.net/other.htm#sting

    Regarding the paranormal, what the “skeptics” do is literally anti-scientific, although they try to portray themselves as the voice of science. Real science would be investigating phenomena, deriving testable hypotheses and then testing them. The house organ of organized skepticism did just that long ago, but in its first foray into those realms, it cooked the data when it wasn’t to its liking:

    http://www.ahealedplanet.net/dennis.htm#randi

    and has not even pretended to perform science regarding the paranormal ever since. What it does instead is attack any and all research into phenomena that lies outside what is currently accepted by mainstream science. Every time research results are reported, the “skeptics” pounce on it, with an array of strategies, implying fraud often enough, but more often they attack the process and data, trying to find a hole in it. Many times, the investigators themselves will respond to the criticisms by improving their procedures, to remove possible experimental error. And when those areas are addressed, the “skeptics” dream up more possible ways for the data to be flawed. Often enough, the “skeptics” show that they are not even familiar with the experiments, as they dream up stuff that has already been dealt with; too often they can't even be bothered to actually examine the data. Many of their criticisms are the equivalent of grasping at straws, and can become increasingly desperate. One of their favorite tricks is having somebody like Mr. Skeptic “investigate” Dennis, and then he makes his criminally libelous “findings,” and that account becomes the beginning and end of “skeptical” investigations, where forever more if the subject of Dennis come up, the “skeptics” will yawn and point to Mr. Skeptic as the “expert,” and they accept and repeat his “findings” at face value. I have seen it with Dennis for the past seventeen years, and that situation is very common, even standard, among “skeptics.”

    On psychic phenomena, one of the great crimes of organized skepticism is treating any and all investigations as either fraudulent enterprises or the Koffee Klatch level of investigation, where the investigators erect houses of cards that blow over in the slightest breeze.

    When Robert McLuhan began in the investigations that led to him writing Randi’s Prize, what surprised him was the deep, scientific and scholarly investigations of paranormal phenomena, beginning in the late nineteenth century and continuing well into the twentieth century, engaged in by leading scientists and carefully written up in scientific and scholarly journals. William Crookes:

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

    and Alfred Russell Wallace:

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

    were legendary scientists, and both devoted quite a bit of effort to investigating paranormal phenomena, and concluded that they encountered genuine events, but the “skeptics” have gone out of their way to discredit them, and in ways that more than suggest fraud. The Articulate Dead covers numerous accounts of experiments conducted by scientists and other credible investigators, which were written up in the paranormal journals of the day, and the “skeptics” have been pretending for generations that such journals do not even exist. That was one of the red flags when McLuhan began his investigations, how the “skeptics” pretended that such efforts had never even been mounted, trying to chalk it all up to credulous housewives, charlatans, and the occasional scientist who got in way over his head.

    But for the McLuhans of the world, whose efforts I cannot help but admire, my message is always:

    “Go out and seek paranormal experiences of your own; they are really not that difficult to achieve. Then any doubt you might have about the reality of such phenomena will be removed.”

    It used to amaze me how “skeptics” and scientists often avoided having direct personal experiences in these realms. When they do, there is no more doubt, no more belief, no more theorizing. With experience comes knowledge, which is a vastly superior treasure to beliefs and theories. But I have never seen a “skeptic” seriously pursue such experiences. At best, they will say that they tried it for five minutes one day and nothing happened. How inane. Forty hours of meditation training, and virtually anybody can perform and witness remote viewings that knock their socks off:

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

    I performed psychically so much in my early years, and performed experiments such as “energize” fruit and watch it slowly mummify, or had “hot hands” healing events, and so on, that I have had no doubt about that stuff since I was a young man. Brian O performed similar experiments, sometimes with equipment that could reproduce the effects:

    https://projectavalon.net/forum4/show...l=1#post545477

    Again, everybody that I respected in the FE field had a mystical orientation, because of their experiences, not some belief or faith game. Anybody who seriously pursues those avenues will quickly hit pay dirt, and they can stop listening to “skeptics” and the like to tell them how reality is; they will know.

    Now, they will not have all the mysteries of the universe and creation revealed to them, but they will know that the materialism of science and “skepticism” is a faith built on a false foundation, and that the frontiers of investigating the abilities of consciousness have barely begun. The true final frontier is the realm of consciousness. But the social managers do their best to keep the herd in line, and it is no coincidence that the exploration of consciousness and the pursuit of FE have the very same organizations attacking them. If that stuff got out of the bag and became publicly acknowledged and normal, many games of power and control would simply vanish, not the least of which is Godzilla’s dark game.

    While my writings are scholarly, I always encourage my readers to go get some experience:

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

    Because only experience can become the anchor of awareness. I have stated it many times: if not for my wild ride with Dennis, I would likely not have much worth saying. Theories and data are nice, but do not lead to knowledge. The hard part about the FE game that I or any FE activist is playing is that getting good experience in the FE field is life-threatening, so unless people are willing to play the game at this level:

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

    they are not going to meet the wizard (or the flying monkeys ). In ways, reaching the level of awareness that FE is real without getting your own underground FE show:

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

    or visiting an FE tinkerer before he is wiped out or bought out:

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

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

    is not easy, but there is plenty of work that can be done to get immersed in enough experience and information that FE certainly comes into the realm of the possible. I can’t open people’s heads and give them what I know, so they will know it, but almost everything about my public work is stuff that can be checked out. And for the extremely few people who have ever done so, they come away from the experience either highly impressed or afraid, because they know my stuff is valid. The fearful ones are those who see their world crumble, as FE and abundance makes all of their mental games and beliefs obsolete:

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

    and I am actually sympathetic to their fear, which is one reason why I don’t even want to interact with such people until they have something to replace their scarcity-based mindset. FE delivered to their homes will blow their belief systems to oblivion, but what can replace it is right there. If FE makes it past the organized suppression and humanity’s inertia, work like mine will not receive a half million views, but billions of views. Part of my work is done with that in mind, so that the new paradigm is already being developed, where people just don’t sit there with their minds blown, but a way forward has already been laid out. It will not have to be the only way, but it will show people what becomes possible with FE, such as this world:

    https://projectavalon.net/forum4/show...l=1#post672748

    so the Level 5 fear that is nearly universal among the “smart” is not what carries the day:

    http://www.ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#level5

    FE and abundance is about the end of fear and scarcity as the general organizing principles of humanity.

    Back to chores.

    I think that Tesla fellow might have agreed with your conclusions, Wade. :~)

    Quote “We are whirling through endless space, with and inconceivable speed, all around everything is spinning, everything is moving, everywhere there is energy. There must be some way of availing ourselves of this energy more directly. Then, with the light obtained from the medium, with the power derived from it, with every form of energy obtained without effort, from the store forever inexhaustible, humanity will advance with giant strides. The mere contemplation of these magnificent possibilities expand our minds, strengthens our hopes and and fills our hearts with supreme delight.” -Nikola Tesla

    Thanks Dennis:

    Yes, Tesla was probably the professional grandfather of all FE activists, inventors, and the like. I have written that I don’t think I even knew who Tesla was when I was with Dennis in the mid-1980s. I had only heard of Fuller’s dome when I finished my site in 2002:

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

    so, in ways, the territory I have trod in my lifetime is not exactly new.

    However, Tesla got caught up in the electricity wars with Edison, and J.P. Morgan pulled the rug from under Tesla when he began making FE noises (“Mr. Tesla, where will the meter go?”), and the suppression apparatus began developing a century ago, and is highly refined today. However, tools like the Internet exist, so anybody who starts thinking in terms of FE is not wandering in the wilderness like Dennis and I were. The information is far more readily available today than it was back then.

    Like Tesla, anybody who really thinks about the energy issue and the human journey, especially if they have a scientist’s understanding, will pretty quickly begin to realize the immensity of FE, and it is big:

    http://www.ahealedplanet.net/risk.htm#quadrillion

    The stupendous magnitude of FE, however, also creates many pitfalls. J.P. Morgan was likely an ancestor of today’s Godzilla, and they know the game they are playing. Keeping the lid on FE keeps their dark game going. Terraforming Mars is one of their crazy contingency plans if their power games make Earth uninhabitable. They are truly insane, all ego, and have been calling the shots on this planet for a long time.

    But the pitfalls that come with pursuing FE are mostly not Godzilla-related.

    Greed, paranoia, delusions of grandeur, and so on:

    http://www.ahealedplanet.net/conun.htm#pitfalls

    all await the FE aspirant, and almost nobody has ever navigated those hazards successfully. I had fleeting delusions of grandeur during my early days with Dennis, before I was rudely disabused of them:

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

    The biggest hurdle to manifesting FE, by far, is humanity’s inertia. All FE aspirants that I ever met were mostly handicapped by their friends, family, and colleagues, not encouraged or helped. That is some of the bizarre territory that FE aspirants have to walk, and that is before Godzilla even shows up. And when he does, the stakes of the game dramatically change. Billion dollar offers to go away, prison and murder attempts if they are refused, etc.

    Back to work.

    Best,

    Wade

    Hi:

    Doing chores, but taking a little break. I came upon this today:

    http://www.feasta.org/2014/01/08/hop...-civilisation/

    and this just the kind of thing that well-meaning pals send me, thinking that it is right down my alley, when it is anything but. It is just a rehash of Heinberg’s Peak Oil stuff:

    http://www.ahealedplanet.net/hooked.htm

    and authors like that wonder why the masses are not listening to their messages of “The party is over! Here comes austerity, and how will we handle it?” The message of FE and abundance is literally 180 degrees from their message. If people are in denial of FE and abundance, how much are they going to be in denial that they need to embrace austerity? As my encounters with Heinberg and other Peak Oil types showed me, FE and abundance is like the devil to them. They are the most entrenched Level 3s:

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

    and work like theirs has only a superficial similarity to mine, in that they take a multidisciplinary approach and energy is the center of it, but they make exactly the opposite points that I do. And their work appeals to the “left” and “progressives.” It takes a discerning eye to tell the difference between work like theirs and mine. People who confuse us are like those people who hand me that essay that libels Dennis:

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

    as they call it excellent writing on the FE issue.

    Those in the choir will be able to distinguish between those flavors of argument, seeing the forest from the trees. It will take a comprehensive perspective but it will also mean understanding the difference between scarcity and abundance:

    http://www.ahealedplanet.net/abund.htm#exuberance

    Back to work.

    Best,

    Wade

    Hi:

    Taking a little break. Some odds and ends…

    When I saw Dennis last spring, and he told me about his maximum security, multiple murderer inmate:

    https://projectavalon.net/forum4/show...rec#post694872

    and how he then knew that the prison officials were trying to get him killed, it also shed more light on the accusations of him being a snitch:

    https://projectavalon.net/forum4/show...l=1#post401301

    It was likely not a coincidence that the guards staged the biggest contraband bust in years within hours of Dennis being transferred to that cellblock. Them putting him back in there, after he already had his life threatened, was likely more of the same. What I saw when we were raided, for instance, showed me that only a small fraction of the officials are in on it. While some of the deputies were definitely in on it, it was only a few of them who perpetrated the theft and espionage during the raid:

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

    while the others were oblivious, just following orders in their regimented and compartmentalized operation. So, Dennis had his file “messed up” with all of those “mistakes” that nudged him into medium security:

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

    and then the murderer had his lucky day when he was suddenly put into medium security. That man gleefully killed a child-molester inmate a mere week before he was to be paroled:

    https://projectavalon.net/forum4/show...l=1#post401779

    so Dennis was deep in the shark tank. But it probably took a few people to grease the skids for Dennis that way. A few well-placed bribes or favors called in, and that was all it took, and then the shark tank does the rest.

    What Dennis also did not write about in his books and never told me before last spring was that when that commissioner appeared at the prison, unannounced, because Dennis’s incarceration was so bizarre:

    https://projectavalon.net/forum4/show...ion#post614041

    the “brotherhood” had informed Dennis that they would kill him that night. The commissioner showed up just in the nick of time. IMO, that is just more of the divine intervention that has attended Dennis's journey. Again, Dennis has come so close to dying so many times that events like that were just days at the office for him.

    OK, on to what I am attempting and what I am not. During the study for the upcoming essay, I kind of answered my own question:

    http://www.ahealedplanet.net/conun.htm#question

    For none of the epochal events in the human journey were the masses “ready” for it, nor did they anticipate it. Indeed, their world changed into something unrecognizable to them, on the other side of the epochal event (indeed, the people on the other side would have often been unrecognizable). I have no reason to think it will be any different this time. So, when the FE naysayers and Level 5 people:

    http://www.ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#level5

    say that humanity is not ready for FE, they are merely acting like all people have before the epochal events:

    Those naysayers are the opposite of visionaries, mired in their scarcity-based paradigm. Also, I have seen, many times, scientifically illiterate people doubt that energy plays all that big a role in our world. Energy is literally everything in our universe, according to people like Einstein. And the level of energy acquisition and use has literally defined the journey of life on Earth, as well as the human journey. I have seen so-called visionaries promote their visions, and if it was not some kind of drumbeat of austerity, as that person linked in the previous post did, while calling it some kind of positive vision of the future (!), it was some kind of airy-fairy amalgam of positive thinking, communication, business, and other stuff, and maybe in some offhand note was something like, “And yes, energy.” When I would see “visions” like that, I hardly knew what to say. Those are completely powerless, shotgun approaches that are not going to get anything done, but the New Age and “progressive” circles are full of stuff like that.

    If we don’t solve the energy issue, and pronto, the rest will not matter. And only abundant energy has any hope of raising humanity out of the mire, and FE can also mean that it can be done without damaging the ecosystems, and humanity can even actively heal them, and everybody has a standard of living that makes Bill Gates look like a pauper. Although my work I think has made that very clear, the essay will say it in spades.

    Back to work.

    Best,

    Wade

    Hi:

    I am writing about primates now, and dealing with the issues of social organization and intelligence. Several years ago, there was a bit of a splash when some scientists stated that monkeys have Machiavellian social organization:

    http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases...1024144314.htm

    and when studying chimpanzee societies, their politicking was generally just a cruder version of what humans do.

    And some have leapt to Machiavelli’s defense ( ):

    http://www.themontrealreview.com/200...achiavelli.php

    The idea that the primary stimulus for brain expansion was to navigate socially is new and interesting, but without the fuel provided by human tools, probably the control of fire most importantly, that brain growth could not have happened.

    This is an area where citing a stimulus is important, but it rode on top of the energy situation. Without the increased energy to fuel those growing brains, they would not have grown. That kind of situation is called one of positive feedback, where increased energy, due to a mental/technical/social breakthrough, facilitated a rise in intelligence, which facilitated new ways of getting energy, which led to human growth, both physically and in numbers, and ultimately in how complex societies could become.

    Best,

    Hi:

    Here is another strategic post. I came to my approach after more than thirty years of dreaming, doing, failing, picking myself back up and trying again, to then experience more of the same. After Ventura:

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

    I left California, began to dig out of debt, began married life, hit the books, and before long, I was reaching out to people such as Noam Chomsky, looking for allies. While Uncle Noam was gracious, as were his buddies:

    http://www.ahealedplanet.net/zinn.htm

    they really weren’t too interested, and that was the best it would get with the rad left and progressives. I had already seen the environmentalist response to the idea of FE and abundance:

    http://www.ahealedplanet.net/purpose...ironmentalists

    and was initially shocked, to later find out that I had seen their typical response to the idea of FE:

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

    When I read Richard Heinberg’s work:

    http://www.ahealedplanet.net/hooked.htm

    I saw that somebody was seeing the problem pretty clearly. So, I thought that he might be interested in actual solutions, particularly the Big One that dwarfed all others. I was quickly disabused of that notion. Heinberg was dug in, and his austerity prescriptions only became more draconian over the years:

    http://www.ahealedplanet.net/hooked.htm#austerity

    and I never saw that he understood the idea of abundance. Just before I encountered Heinberg, I was introduced to Bucky Fuller’s work, and the paradigm that I had been groping toward by the seat of my britches finally crystallized, and I finally understood that people like Heinberg were addicted to scarcity and failure:

    http://www.ahealedplanet.net/roots.htm#scarcity2

    Ridding Earth of six billion “excess” humans was right in line with his dreary vision, and “progressives” have been eating it up since 2003 (which Brian O found dismaying and depressing, as he was totally shut out of the same venues). That “visionary” that I linked to yesterday:

    https://projectavalon.net/forum4/show...l=1#post783720

    is typical of Heinberg’s acolytes and Peak Oilers in general. While they can be highly intelligent and seemingly compassionate and full of ideas:

    http://www.oftwominds.com/blogjan10/...date01-10.html

    http://kunstler.com/cluster****-nati...own-the-house/

    they are all just variations of the scarcity theme. When cult members are deprogrammed, the smart ones are the hardest nuts to crack, as they have built the most formidable defenses. I have seen this phenomenon, where the cult member has an answer for everything, but it is really a form of sophistry. To state it more kindly, they are trapped by the assumptions of their paradigm. I have watched them defend the murders on Sai Baba’s ashram grounds, and I don’t even want to mix it up with them anymore, even with footage of Sai Baba apparently faking a lingam manifestation (and I don't seek Sai Baba cultists, but they approach me):

    https://projectavalon.net/forum4/show...l=1#post770226

    It would be like taking on Christians about the basis of their faith and the belief that many of them have in the literal truth of the Bible. People are not going to be disabused of their cherished beliefs by talk, and contrary evidence is not something they want to see, even scientists:

    http://www.ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#real

    I am not trying to reach any of those kinds of people with my work. I am looking for those needles in haystacks whose love of the truth trumps their need to have comforting and egocentric beliefs. They are very few and far between. People like Heinberg are going to be among the last people on Earth to wake up to FE, and even if they had it delivered to their homes, they will likely go through a period of freaking out, as their carefully constructed paradigm collapses before their eyes.

    All approaches to the world’s problems today are rooted in scarcity (except maybe mine ). None are based on the idea of abundance, even FE efforts:

    http://www.ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#level6

    and the most intelligent are the most hooked on their paradigms:

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

    At least some are more honest about their denial than others, such as the rad left, which is ideologically opposed to the idea of Godzilla:

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

    My work and upcoming essay is not really about pointing out scarcity (or those hooked on it), because it is everywhere. What it is really about is helping the reader understand how energy runs the world and always has, how the energy level that humanity has enjoyed dictated the kind of society they had:

    https://projectavalon.net/forum4/show...l=1#post674575

    and what kind of world can await if enough of us can help get FE past the organized suppression and humanity’s inertia. Then we can have a world that looks something like this:

    https://projectavalon.net/forum4/show...l=1#post672748

    and the early stages of it can look like this:

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

    My essay will meet my readers far more than halfway, and I am not interested in the innumerable “devil’s advocate” criticisms that will come, the critiques that literally beg the question by operating from scarcity and fear assumptions, and the rest of that stuff that I have seen thousands of times. I am not interested in the 99.9% of people who won’t understand and refuse to, but the less than 0.1% who will. And I am looking for singers. Ilie has been singing, as have some others. But they won’t be singing to their friends, family, and colleagues; they will be broadcasting it to the world at large, like a big magnet that will seek to attract the needles.

    That is what I am looking for, and am not interested in engaging and convincing the naysayers, those in denial, those beating the drums of scarcity, those who are certain that humanity is not ready for FE and abundance, and the like. As I have stated, if my work makes sense to you and the message of abundance really seats in your awareness, particularly in comprehensive fashion, you are freak, and there is nobody in your daily life like you. If you are highly fortunate, maybe there are one or two others, but that is if you are lucky. That is just how the land lies these days, with scarcity being all that humanity has known since the beginning.

    Back to work.

    Best,

    Wade

    Hi:

    Ok, one more post in-between chores. FE newbies, flush with their first glimpse of abundance, almost always want to rush out and tell everybody they know the good news, to end up shocked at how they are treated, and those who they think would be natural allies literally treat them like the enemy. The “smart” ones, especially those who think they have solutions, are the worst, as FE and abundance totally blows them out of the water, as they pursue and preach austerity “solutions.”

    After several years of playing the Paul Revere of FE, Brian O openly wondered if we were a sentient species:

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

    and words cannot really convey the journey of disillusionment I went through during my wild ride with Dennis:

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

    and when my mother put all those libelous articles together (mostly published by her employer), and took it on tour to my friends, family, and investors, telling the story of her son the crook:

    https://projectavalon.net/forum4/show...l=1#post400492

    I would like to say that I was surprised or dismayed, but I wasn’t. It was just one more example of what I was seeing come at me from all sides.

    Brian was from the Big Time, the former-astronaut, adviser to presidential candidates, Ivy League professor and close colleague of Carl Sagan, Buzz Aldrin, and other big names:

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

    Brian had access and credibility that I never will, and I watched him get a permanent hairdo change from the wind of all the doors that slammed in his face. And Brian, as I was, was looking for people who we thought would be natural allies, such as environmentalists, “progressives” and radicals, Peak Oilers, and so on. Not only was nobody home, those groups, more than any others, treated us like the enemy. It took many years for me to figure that out.

    Earth and humanity hang in the balance today, and FE would nearly instantly solve all of humanity’s most pressing problems: environmental destruction, Global Warming, poverty, war, and so on. But the only people who can even glimpse it without having a Level 5 panic attack:

    http://www.ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#level5

    are those who have had some kind of awakening experience:

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

    and when people glimpse it, gung-hoers like Dennis, Brian, and I rush out there and try to make a dent, to only get our heads handed to us, and the most dismaying part is not that Godzilla is alive and vigilant, but that those who hurt you the most are those closest to you. The primary lesson of my journey I resisted every step of the way:

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

    but it is the reason why we don’t have FE today. And nobody wants to hear it, which is actually more evidence of the truth of my primary lesson.

    So, I am trying out an approach that I never saw before: the enlightenment approach. Late in their lives, both Dennis and Brian began to see things my way, after both had been run out of the USA for their trouble, and barely surviving their adventures in the Land of the Free.

    When I told one very sharp professor pal what I was going to attempt, his immediate response was: “That can’t hurt.” Indeed, do no harm is my motto, not only for the lambs, but for Godzilla. It has to be a love-based effort, or it will not go anywhere, but I do not have the time or inclination to bang on the doors that I have already pounded on, and try to climb the same ramparts like Dennis and Brian tried to scale (and I helped them do it), only to have the boiling oil dumped on us.

    I am doing something different, and we will see how it goes.

    Back to work.

    Best,

    Wade

    Hi:

    I have been fasting for a few days, and plan to for the next several weeks, and I am getting in The Zone. I am more than 150 pages into the essay, and have probably done the heavy lifting already, but the next several weeks will be critical to really hitting the notes on the essay, and I am sure that new realizations are ahead of me that will help the essay, but I don’t know what they are yet.

    During my career, I have come up with many innovations, some of which I later discovered were considered cutting-edge and/or best practice, and the way I did it was by wrestling with systems problems. Inventing systems that solve complex problems in the most effective way, while also making it easy for the people using the systems, is the ultimate goal of systems design. My process was grappling with the problem, the tools, the goals, and other issues, and welding them together into a comprehensive whole. My process is to jam as much information into my head as possible and let it gestate. Then somewhere along the line, I will get my aha moment and the solution stands there in my mind’s eye.

    When I worked for people who understood some of my abilities and they let me go after it, it turned out well. When they wanted to play “engineer” and override me, it did not turn out well. I usually only did that kind of work when I had the opportunity, but in the corporate shuffle I would end up getting a new boss who did not understand, and my systems would get dismantled. I watched entire companies go down when my work was ruined by new management and they then ran the ship into a reef. That has not been easy to watch.

    But I was warned about that kind of dynamic when I was teenager, learning at Mr. Mentor’s knee:

    http://www.ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#glimpse

    and I heard plenty about when his ingenious inventions would either be stolen or suppressed, and if the invention was complex, the thieves would usually wreck it, and one stolen invention was literally built upside down, as the thief’s understanding was so poor:

    https://projectavalon.net/forum4/show...l=1#post749310

    When Dennis would have his companies repeatedly stolen during his heat pump days:

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

    the thieves would throw away the only two things worth anything: Dennis and his brilliant marketing plans. That is the typical kind of short-sighted and greedy stupidity that kills companies, nations, and species.

    Fortunately, my essay only has one cook, so nobody can wreck it. Will I be able to get the points made and comprehensive vision developed well enough so that people can begin to learn the song, so they can eventually sing it, and it becomes their song, not mine? We will see.

    I was just out in my yard, planting some flower bulbs we were given, and puttering around is one of my ways of reflecting. I was thinking about mounting an FE effort one day, which is my ultimate goal.

    As Brian more than hinted at:

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

    the people in the FE field today don’t have the right stuff to make it happen, and I can only add an amen. The naïve, the greedy, the criminal, the tunnel-visioned, the incompetent, the deluded, and so on, have turned that little cottage industry into a mess that I don’t want to have anything to do with.

    For all the naïveté, paranoia, dishonesty, and delusions of grandeur that I have seen in the ranks, some things they are getting right. One of which is that there can’t be any “investors.” Anybody who is investing is seeking a return on investment, and when that is their motivation, the effort is doomed. That is when greed and other foibles rear their heads, and when an inventor thinks he is going to go get a patent for his gizmo, he is already done, but doesn’t know it yet, and has some life-wrecking or life-ending times ahead of him. Or if he is lucky, he gets the Golden Handcuffs:

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

    As I have stated many times, the only prayer that the technical route has is for the inventor with the goods to give it to a worthy group. I have never heard of that inventor or the worthy group, but that is the only strategy down that path with a prayer. Of course, it won’t be easy. Nothing about making FE happen will be easy, but pouring the new wine into the old skins of commerce and capitalism is the path of disaster that has played out countless times.

    I really don’t pay attention to the FE field anymore, so maybe some aspirants are taking approaches like that. If they are, then maybe they have a prayer, but they won’t really have a prayer until a sufficient nucleus of public awareness supports them, and that is what the choir and planned subsequent activities are all about. Otherwise, Godzilla takes them out with a lash of his tail.

    Back to work.

    Best,

    Wade

    Wade Frazier, Post 3313 : “As I have stated, if my work makes sense to you and the message of abundance really seats in your awareness, particularly in comprehensive fashion, you are freak, and there is nobody in your daily life like you.”

    Not sure I’m qualified to say if, or to what degree, I get it comprehensively. The reason I’ve quoted the above though is because I’ve spoken about FE with close friends, and fortunately enjoyed non-defensive reactions. Positive ones even. The patient kind. But I’ve become more and more aware, the more I learn about (and therefore wish to explore) the subject, that it can very quickly hit a wall within those people. And it’s not fair to ask them to push beyond it before they’re ready, or (if I’m being more cynical) I back off to avoid their turning against me. Even though the wall may manifest simply as a kind silence. Even though I know it would not necessarily be immediate, or conscious on their part, if they were to struggle with their emotions. It doesn’t feel kind to push. It’s all too easy for a hapless / reckless ego to disguise itself as a righteous ray of light.

    Most of us have one or more issues that were someone to breach our comfortable boundary we might feel cornered or confronted emotionally. But I’m still working on accepting, emotionally rather than intellectually (hugely different) that FE is one of those subjects for so many of us. I’ve been aware of that contradiction within me, when it comes to FE, as far back as I can remember. Hopefully I’m learning. It’s a process, an integration – and the better part of me does aim to limit the fallout for others as I tread the path <clasps hands tightly. Exhales> I’ve always agreed with your advice on this Wade – but sometimes my FE imagination finds its way to my voice box in social settings and the ‘enthusiasm floodgate’ alarm light begins to twitch... I return here and am reminded of why you recommend caution – and doing the work rather than projecting. It’s not that there are no others able to have this conversation. It’s just that they really aren’t yet abundant.

    Wade Frazier, post 3307 : “The fearful ones are those who see their world crumble, as FE and abundance makes all of their mental games and beliefs obsolete: http://www.ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#dominant and I am actually sympathetic to their fear, which is one reason why I don’t even want to interact with such people until they have something to replace their scarcity-based mindset.”

    The feelings I process of sad resignation when I feel the walls in others, or due to simply avoiding the FE subject with others, reminds me to go within. To deal with my own ‘stuff,’ in the same way I need to in other aspects of my life. Growing acceptance, self-correction - compassion for myself and others. Even writing it is hard... It does move me. I suppose because simple truths are powerful ones. And because the FE subject and the subject of our spirituality are so truly interlocked – so interchangeable. It isn’t purely a technological issue. None of our physical energy sources have been. But with greater power, greater energy supply, greater creative/destructive potential... the connection can become more apparent.

    It feels like once you’ve awakened the FE process in yourself, so much of what’s on offer in mainstream culture appears anachronistic – whether it’s technology or beliefs. I recently visited an earth globe suspended in the Science Museum. It hangs in a pleasantly dark space, lit up with moving images of the earth’s surface and her weather systems. At one point you can see the paths that air traffic takes – tiny little streaks of light that stream over the surface and cluster in pockets of light within Europe, North America and other hubs of activity. You see how small portions of the world, such as European cities are drawing in so much of the light, demanding so much of the energy, like hungry magnets. When the subject is raised by the exhibit voiceover, of how we need to look into renewable energy solutions, I naturally think of FE. I also naturally predict that there will be no mention of it in the exhibit. But it’s ok. I remember not to get upset. I drink in the pleasure of the glowing globe and its shifting surface. Remembering how magnificent she really is. How lucky we are.

    Ever glad to have some FE cyber friends. Thank you Wade (and Bill) for creating the space, and to all helping tend it.

    Dear Melinda,

    Don't know what to say other than THANK YOU for saying so eloquently what I often feel and experience too!! I always have to check in though to see if what I'm feeling is resignation, disillusionment, disappointment or all of the aforementioned.... and yes it always sits with me as these feelings belong to my situation and sense of self acceptance for wanting so much more than daily reality presents! ~~~sigh~~~ Love you my Sister

    Hi Melinda, my poet:

    Eloquently said. Oh, if you could have seen me my first year with Dennis, and if you could have seen me the next three years. That Dennis is still at it, in the way he goes at it, boggles my mind. If you could have seen Brian when I met him, and Brian ten years later, and Brian at the end of his life, going as hard as ever, as positively as ever, it would have amazed you.

    We all knew the enthusiasm, the bright future that could be, and we got to know what it was like to be attacked from all sides, often from those closest to us. That you received positive responses have everything to do with who you are, not the message, and the fact that you did not go deep with anybody. The FE and abundance message is initially received like a child does who is told that Santa is coming soon. How could anybody really not want to live in worlds like these?

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

    Yet, if you dig below the initial “Santa’s coming to town” response, a whole laundry list of objections, delusions, and the like rise to the surface. The most common initial one is, “If FE was real, something as great and wonderful as that would have already been delivered to my door.” That is what I have called the Level 1 response:

    http://www.ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#level1

    Probably the next most common response is actually Level 4, which is along the lines of:

    “If you ever want to give me an FE machine, I’ll take one.”

    That is like the kid who asks Santa for that quadrillion dollar sled:

    http://www.ahealedplanet.net/risk.htm#quadrillion

    and what was so brilliant about Dennis’s approach when I met him was that he was doing just that, delivering the closest thing to FE that has ever been on the market:

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

    and all people had to do was wait for Santa to come down the chimney. I know that he would still love to be able to play Santa like that, but TPTB will not allow it, as the herd is theirs to milk (and all milk cows are slaughtered and eaten when their udders go dry), not to be set free by somebody like Dennis. The electric industry called in all of its favors to take us out in Seattle:

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

    If I had to further the analogy, it would be something like, “Santa can’t make it down your chimney tonight, because Uncle Sam took out his sled with a barrage of cruise missiles.” Or, Santa was locked away and an imposter took his place, but when he came down the chimney he burglarized the home instead:

    https://projectavalon.net/forum4/show...l=1#post768396

    The part that blew me away was that that “Santa” obviously had fake padding, whiskey on his breath, and if you saw him from behind, you could see the pointy tail trailing along the ground, and he faintly smelled of sulfur, but those around you all eagerly climbed into his lap, asking for their heart’s desire. I literally could not believe what I was seeing at first. If I had to make another analogy, it would have been all of those people flocking to Las Vegas in Stephen King’s The Stand, and not beginning to figure it out until the nuke went off. But the difference in what I experienced was that only about 0.1% went to see Mother Abigail:

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of...Mother_Abigail

    while the stampede went rumbling off to Vegas. And there was nothing that I could tell people so that they did not rush off to Vegas, as I watched them go off in a cloud of dust. Later, I saw the sky light up, but I really did not want to watch. And all I heard in the distance was this great, malevolent cackle and a huge grin, looking like the Cheshire Cat, in the mushroom cloud, mocking me.

    And that was just the first three years I was with Dennis. Somehow I survived, and a year after I moved away from California, radicalized, I met Brian O, almost like how I met Dennis, and Brian was a gung-ho newbie:

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

    Dennis was incredibly back at it, as hard as ever, but at time, before the Internet, few really knew who Dennis was in the FE field. It was only later that he became famous, or infamous, as Santa was universally vilified for never delivering that quadrillion dollar sled.

    Five years later, five years where I spent all my spare time trying to understand how the world really was and why it was like that:

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

    after my wild ride with Dennis, Brian published the first thing I ever saw that mentioned Dennis without attacking him, in his Miracle in the Void. Brian’s summary of the FE conundrum was the best I had yet seen (he called it “The Suppression Syndrome”), and I became his biggest fan. But we really did not begin to collaborate until five years later, when I squired him around California while Brian tried to play FE advisor to California’s governor, as he was in the midst of being raped by Enron (losing his job to Arnold in the process), and they tried to run us out of town instead:

    http://www.ahealedplanet.net/paths.htm#sacramento

    Brian had been playing the Paul Revere of FE for the past five years, literally globe-trotting, banging on all the doors that a former astronaut, Ivy League professor, and adviser to presidential candidates could:

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

    After we were nearly run out of town that day, Brian told me how his ride went. After I staggered out of my home town, radicalized, I had also spent the previous ten years reaching out. I had a website nearly continually for the previous five years, not only reaching out to where I thought there might be a glimmer in somebody’s eye, but I also had my email address on my site and took on all comers. As Brian began to give me the litany of how his ride went:

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

    I was sadly not surprised. And Brian had access and credibility that I never will. I only mention Amory Lovins’s reaction by name because Brian did in his book, but Lovins was not even among the biggest names that Brian recited to me that day, with their reactions, one of which was about the biggest name in environmental circles.

    When Brian asked if humans were really a sentient species:

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

    I knew exactly what he was talking about, and Brian never got to play anywhere close to the level that Dennis and I did. Flagg had essentially tied Dennis to the stake, and I was doing my best to save him, and watching people like my mother in the crowd, cheering Flagg along and throwing the tomatoes not only at Dennis, but at me (and she raised me to be a Golden Boy):

    https://projectavalon.net/forum4/show...l=1#post300436

    is one of those moments that I hope that nobody else ever has to experience. But everybody I know who walked the high road to FE had moments like that. In the end, Dennis and Brian were the only people I knew in the FE field who really had the right stuff. Some others may have, but I did not know them well. But when I became familiar with other names in the FE field, they did not quite measure up, and there were plenty of criminals in the field:

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

    and I watched people worship them just like they did Flagg, and at least a dozen times I was told by members of the FE field and newbie enthusiasts what a great guy Flagg was as he roasted Dennis (!), and how Vegas was where the action was. When I tried to tell people what Flagg was really doing, all I got back were excuses and defenses of him, and in their denial and disbelief I became the fool and crook as they projected their delusions onto me. The first few times I got that back, I could not believe it, but eventually came to understand it was normal, even among members of the FE field. It was about that time that I decided that I did not want to be a part of any FE efforts, and have been doing my own thing for the past ten years. Dennis and Brian kept trying to get me back in the saddle with them again, but I was done playing those games, and have to try out the strategy that I eventually came to: the enlightenment path, not one that caters to or overlooks people’s delusions and false beliefs about Santa.

    Again, I know I am looking for needles in haystacks, and what has continued to surprise me as I have been interacting with the public again is now naïve people are, how much they go running off, hacking at branches, how they can’t tell the forest from the trees, how they just have to go tell their friends, neighbors, and colleagues the “good news” about FE and abundance. All of my pupils have done it, partly because they can’t contain themselves, and I understand ( ), but also partly because they can’t believe that their friends’, families’, and colleagues’ eyes won’t light up in recognition when they hear the gospel of FE and its potential. And my best pupils always come back, months or years later, telling me how it went, and all of them got sobered up and realized that I was not making it up. And what happens is that you eventually understand what you are working with, this species called humanity. You finally accept that the vast majority of people are just like those toddlers eager to see Santa. That is about the level of their sense of reality.

    As I studied and deconstructed the lies I had been raised with:

    http://www.ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm

    I began to understand the Santa stories that we were all taught about the Flaggs of the world. So, I began to see why everybody literally believed in Santa, but when I told people that he did not really live in Vegas, I got the most incredulous looks. Anybody who thought that Santa did not live in Vegas was crazy. Once you get that kind of reaction a thousand times or so, and trade notes with people like Brian, you begin to understand where people are.

    I do my best to not judge where they are, but to just accept it. The masses are only going to be “help” on the FE front in that if you delivered FE to their homes, they will let you install it. That is what Dennis was trying when I met him, and many years later, I realized that he was not asking more of them than they could deliver, but it was really no help at all. They would just as readily cheer as Flagg roasted Dennis at the stake. I was literally seeing Dostoyevsky’s Parable of the Grand Inquisitor play out in real life:

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

    And after that, Dennis began to appeal to varieties of the Santa myth, to rally people around the Christmas tree:

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

    and eventually I realized that the only thing they would come for was the promise of a present from Santa (or the promise of an entertaining public execution). But if you could really deliver FE to their homes, what then? My theory is that if people really had FE delivered to their homes, not only could the Earth healing project really begin (and not the million branch-hacking “solutions” that come from all corners, which are all mired in scarcity), but the scarcity-based blinders that everybody wore, the zero-sum-game assumptions that everybody knew by heart:

    http://www.ahealedplanet.net/energy.htm#zero

    assumptions that were so deeply ingrained that people really were not conscious that they held them, until something like FE challenged them, could fall away, and people’s eyes could open to abundance. It would not make them all saints, not by any means, but Santa’s world could literally become real, not some story they were told and believed when convenient. The bottom line is that Godzilla manages the human herd by making Flagg look like Santa, at least to the undiscerning, which is the vast majority of humanity at this time. Now, a lot of that blindness has been carefully cultivated from the cradle. In the USA, children are trained to worship a flag:

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

    and are taught that mass-murdering thieves and genocidists:

    http://www.ahealedplanet.net/columbus.htm#genocide

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

    http://www.ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#serra

    were heroes and saints, literally:

    http://www.ahealedplanet.net/lies.htm#saint

    http://www.ahealedplanet.net/columbus.htm#saint

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

    and people are fed mind-numbing poison as it is called medicine:

    http://www.ahealedplanet.net/fluoride.htm#harold

    and reality is regularly turned upside down by the social managers. We truly live in Orwell's world, while people boast that they are really free. It is surreal:

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

    What has happened, that I could see, is that people dutifully digested all the lies, have easily succumbed to the carrots and sticks of the herd management, and their minds are being kept in a state where they really believe that Flagg is Santa:

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

    I realized that people are going to keep believing that Flagg is Santa, and will actually cheer as Flagg burns Santa at the stake. I am not even interested in anymore in telling John Q. Public about Santa. They will only “believe” when he comes down their chimney. Sorry for mixing my metaphors ( ), but I know people who have met the wizard and seen the quadrillion dollars sleds that are hidden away:

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

    and have encountered those who made their own and tried to put them under the tree:

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

    and what hell they had to pay:

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

    and most trying to play the real Santa did not survive the process, as Flagg and his boss, the Crimson King:

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of...e_Crimson_King

    took care of them. Most often, the Santa aspirants would quietly disappear, but for the larger-than-life heroes like Dennis, a public execution could be instructive and entertaining for the mob.

    Writing this is almost fun, as I bring in works of fiction, but the way the land lies in this world, and the level of sentience that humanity is manifesting, are all too real, and people will not really find out until they really get out there and engage the masses with paradigm-shattering ideas like FE and abundance, and try to slip below the surface of the superficial “Santa” reactions. And then it all comes out, and it is rarely pretty. What almost always comes out is a regurgitation of their conditioning and how they cling to it at all costs, believing it to be their lifejacket, when it was really an anchor, and they sit on the ocean floor of their drowned sentience, thinking that they are sailing the high seas. FE will drain the ocean, and then people will truly breathe for the first time since they were infants. If people can actually draw a breath of fresh air, will they believe it is good, and not the poison that Flagg tells them it is? I think so, and that is really the experiment I am about to try out. In his own way, Dennis was trying the same thing, but when he got waylaid by Flagg a few times, with the Crimson King looking on and chuckling, as the masses cheered, Dennis tried to use Flagg's myths to lead people to the light, to get them to swim from the ocean floor to the surface. I found that it simply won’t work. I don’t want to forcibly drag people to the surface either, which has been Dennis’s strategy at times. I am trying to drain the ocean, and then those people clinging to their anchors will take their first breath and realize they did not die, and that fresh air is not poison.

    Enough of the metaphors for now.

    Back to work.

    Best,

    Wade

    Hi:

    Just one note that I have written before… The FE conundrum is not about technology, but is about integrity and sentience. I watched Dennis get taken repeatedly out with rock solid technology with a mountain of test data behind it:

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

    and it just didn’t matter. Kangaroo Court, hit men, crooked cops, prosecutors, judges, and other public officials, a media system that is nothing more than an amplifier for the lies, and so on, can take out any fledgling technology on Earth, and has. Godzilla’s Golden Hoard is huge, and all across the USA, barns, workshops, and garages have working energy prototypes in them, some of which only save on energy bills, some will see a car get 100 MPG, and some will produce the ZPF energy effect. I have seen it all, and those tinkering inventors never get anywhere, and even when legitimate businesses are mounted around them, they never survive for long. Godzilla rarely even has to get involved, as the inherent weaknesses in the efforts (an inability to secure funding, greed, naïveté, paranoia, and many other human foibles) collapse the efforts from the inside. And for the 1-in-1,000 efforts that threaten to make a dent and get past their initial internal weaknesses and survive the suppression efforts of the local energy interests, Godzilla finally rolls out of bed and quickly neutralizes the threat, with his impressive and subtle bag of tricks.

    Having a nice piece of technology is meaningless, but many newbies get stuck there, which is usually Levels 6 and 7:

    http://www.ahealedplanet.net/paradigm.htm#level6

    but also Levels 11 and 10 can come into play. Dead ends, all.

    Back to writing about the rise of humanity from our great ape ancestors.

    Best,

    Wade

    Wade, I look forward to reading your essay. I think of making a huge pot of vegetable soup and stocking up on hot chocolate ingredients, relaxing on my chaise lounge on my balcony (with a view of the bay, the mountains beyond, the sky and the trees below) and soaking up word after word, sentence after sentence, paragraph after paragraph, and filling the gaps of my knowing and widening my understanding.

    Since it is now midsummer here on the southern tip of Africa, I suppose I am anticipating the publication of your essay here on Avalon round about late Autumn/early winter!

    Since I learnt to read at an early age, I have been a speed reader so I anticipate that I can skim through more than 20 pages per hour, but I am training myself to read, then take time to reflect and stretch the reading time for that first read, then go back to the essay and read again and again as I experience life and widen my understanding through experience.

    All best wishes for finishing the essay and publishing it here on Avalon in late Autumn/early winter 2014 here in Southern Africa, otherwise I will have to dream of fruit salad and iced water flavoured with lemon and lime as I relax on my chaise lounge!
