I have written before about pheromone spraying by air over populated areas on the Monterey county Coast of Central California. However, there are new and important facts to share. First, since the Australian Light Brown Apple Moth was discovered in Alameda county California it is thought that they arrived on ornamental plants by sea or Air into the San Francisco Bay area. It is also thought that they have been in California for 2 or 3 years already before someone found one in their backyard in Alameda. Since they lay 300 to 1500 eggs each on ornamental plants or various crops edible by humans it is likely they already are in other states after being here for three years or so already. Stopping and inspecting all ornamental and other crops for these eggs would be tedious to impossible so it is likely we are going to hear a lot more about the Australian light brown Apple moth throughout North America, Canada and Mexico and then on down into South America. This seems pretty inevitable at this point.
I have come to the conclusion that California is just covering it's butt by spraying populated areas for the time when other states or the Federal Government try to blame California for the problem since the moth now lives in Australia, New Zealand, England and Ireland I suppose it was only a matter of time that someone accidentally brought some to the United STates somewhere on ornamental plants or trees of some kind.

Next
Next. Though I want to talk about the movie "Next" with Nicolas Cage I'd like to talk about something related first.
I am a psychic activist. The main reason that I call this site intuitivefred888 is that I believe that if not enough people develop their psychic gifts and learn to use them to keep their friends and relatives alive and out of harms way that the human race likely will go extinct within 1000 years. So, I believe that God created me to be a psychic activist to help the human race survive past the next 1000 years or so.
So, if you have gifts I believe you should develop them and then use them actively to help your family and friends survive anything that comes. For example, in my case if there is a danger of some kind I usually know it ahead of time and find a way for my family and friends to be safe. If at least one member of each family took responsibility in this way less people would get injured and die. Whenever anyone gets injured or dies unnecessarily in wounds the whole family or circle of friends sometimes in permanent ways. So every life you can find a way to help save is a boon to that family or group of friends.
In my case if there is a clear and present danger to my family, friends, nation or world I will usually try to find a way to save lives if I am aware of something beforehand.
In the movie "Next" even though it is Hollywooded up a whole lot, the basic experiences of sensing things before they happen and even knowing what will happen given different choices are what I experience if there is serious danger to myself or others. I can track the danger in this way. However, I must say here that this level of tracking future danger is very unusual and isn't an everyday occurance but it does happen like this for me more than once every year when danger arises. Most of the time danger is slight and like most of you I sense not to walk down that dark alley with no lights or something like that. Most everyone senses when something is not right if one is alert. However, the really serious types of danger found in the movie are of the once in a lifetime variety and if necessary I know I would survive these kinds of situations and if you test your abilities properly you might be able to also..

Vegetarian
Vegetarian from birth to 32. Since so many adults and children are attempting to become vegetarians these days I thought I would share my own experiences of growing up a vegetarian.
I was raised from birth to be a lacto ovo vegetarian. This would be the most similar to a vegetarian diet in India. It means that in addition to vegetables, nuts and fruits I have eaten milk and cheeses and eggs. This kind of vegetarian diet is fairly easy to maintain in a warm climate. It becomes much more difficult to be a vegetarian in colder climates where more calories are needed to stay warm. But in places like California, Hawaii, Arizona, Florida and places like this a lacto ovo vegetarian diet will do just fine. One must also be careful at higher altitudes in getting enough protein to keep warm, especially in places like Albuquerque, Santa Fe, Denver which are all above 5000 feet in elevation. I believe Santa Fe is over 7000 feet high.
The most important thing about being a vegetarian at any age is to get enough protein and to not eat too much cheese or synthetic meat products made from soy as these are very binding and cause constipation.
When I was 10 years old after never having even tasted meat I tried some chicken soup and had flu like symptoms for over one week as a result. So I didn't even try to eat any meat until I was about 15 after that experience. Also, I had heat prostration at age 9 and childhood epilepsy at ages 10 to 15 and whooping cough that I almost died from at age 2. My parents didn't believe in shots so I never had any until I was required to have a tetanus shot at age 15 because of a dog bite. However, I have studied about this and even without shots one acquires what is called Herd immunity from associating with all the other school children that I was with in public School and in my last year of high school, a private school.
I sometimes wonder if my childhood epilepsy wasn't caused in part by not eating meat. I grew very fast from ages 10 to 15. For example at age 12 I was 5 foot 2 but at 13 I was 5 foot 10 and by 15 I was 6 foot 3 inches tall and by 21 I was my present 6 foot 4 1/2 inches tall. So with shoes on I'm between 6 foot 5 and 6 foot 6 inches tall depending on the soul of the shoe or boot. When I visited my doctor he gave my B-12 shots in the posterior as he felt I wasn't getting enough B vitamins. Now, I take a B-complex tablet every day to maintain mental and emotional balance. I think this may also be related to not getting enough b-complex in meats as a child.
I have noticed that being a vegetarian that as a male I tend to have less violent thoughts or that violence is more easily controlled by being a vegetarian. Also, being a vegetarian accentuates telepathy and the development of psychic abilities. It is also good for developing, intellectually and spiritually. Also, by not eating cow or pork for example one does not develope things like hardening of the arteries even in ones 40's or 50's. However, I find it very hard to be a complete vegetarian at age 59. It seems hard to keep a diet that keeps body, mind and soul together that is completely vegetarian. However, I have a friend who is a professional musician who tours around the world doing concerts still, who has been a vegetarian from birth like me and who has never even tasted meat once in his life. He and I have cross country skied together since 1976 and downhill skied together since the 1980's on Mt. Shasta in Northern California.
However, much more study and diligence is necessary in becoming a vegan vegetarian. A Vegan eats no milk or eggs or any fish or any kind of thing that flies, walks or swims or moves except in the wind.
There is also a third category that I consider myself kind of crazy. It is called being a fruitarian. I have met a few people who tried this but the woman I met who did this lost her period and the man I knew of who did this died so I wouldn't recommend this.
I have also heard of people who eat nothing but usually still drink water that are called Breatharian. I have never personally met anyone like this that I know but very unusual things happen in India among Yogis so I must say here that it is likely possible for 1 in a million people to be a breatharian and never eat anything as an adult. Though most of these people ate until they became adult yogis. I am told they live off the prana in the air.
These last two categories aren't very useful for most of us, however.
Some of the most useful things for lacto ovo vegatarians like I was raised are baked potatoes, skin and all, milk, butter and cheese. Since a potato is only one of two vegetarian type things that people can live on alone and stay healthy baked potatoes are very important to every vegetarian diet that most people would attempt. The second thing that one can live on in an emergency by itself is coconuts. However, in order to survive on them you must eat them directly from the tree in all stages of development from pure water to hard copra out of the shell. However, coconuts are very laxative in there effects so this diet might be unpleasant in that way.
So while I was growing up for dinner we usually had some form of potato every day for dinner. So let's say Monday we would have baked potatoes, Tuesday we would have scalloped potatoes with cheese and Thursday we would have mashed potatoes. In addition to this we would have a salad which would either be romaine lettuce with tomatoes with dressing or the same with grated carrots or little cut up pieces of celery. Sometimes we would have pickled beans with the salad. In addition we would eat corn, peas, carrots or some other vegetable steamed with a steamer. You can buy metal steamers with legs and holes in them to steam vegatables in a pot with a lid on it.
If you are a vegan vegetarian and are a raw foodist then you would cook nothing you eat. I have tried doing all these types of diets except for fruitarian(though I have fasted on water, lemon juice and maple syrup or honey for up to 7 days at a time. Watermelon fasting cleans your arteries from buildup so a watermelon fast for up to 4 days a year is very good for your health. If you need a heart bypass operation and are in good enough health to do it a 30 day watermelon fast will eliminate in most cases the need for a heart bypass operation. A 6 month brown rice fast will also do the same thing.
I found I did not feel balanced after about 4 days when I eliminated milk products from my diet. Therefore, I believe that milk and milk products have been the primary source of protein my body has lived on most of my life. I am still about a 95% to 97% vegetarian and don't eat any cow. If I do eat something it is just a little maybe once a week or less and that would be turkey, chicken and once in a while bacon. If someone is fixing prawns, crab or lobster once or twice a year I might have some.
When I had an angiogram in 1998 the doctors were very jealous of me. They said I had the cleanest arteries and veins of any patient they had ever seen. So though I did have a heart virus I didn't die because I didn't have any clogged veins or arteries. So even at 59 years old I still snow ski, ride a bicycle, motorcycle, hike long distances in the mountains and swim and I still snorkel whenever I go to Maui or Hawaii.

The Kingdom
The Kingdom. I saw the movie today. I actually enjoyed it quite a bit. The only movies I've seen that also fall into this class of movie would be Syriana and Babel. The Kingdom takes it in a new direction, however. So one leaves the movie feeling of greater understanding of what is actually going on beyond the politics in the middle east.
If you are looking for an American propaganda movie this isn't it. This is more a thoughtful movie about what makes both sides tick in this long running terrorist war. This movie tries hard not to propagandize either side. it just shows the bombs the bullets and the blood in a way that some people might not be able to handle. However, even if that is difficult for you don't forget to rent the DVD when it comes out in that form so you can see things more the way the really are and not just propagandized by either side.
What was clear for me in watching this was that each side was mostly just protecting their own families and their own customs and beliefs. However, in this movie one got a feeling more of the problem being western didactic materialism versus Extremist fundamentalist Islam. Also, for those of you who have studied history this war has actually been going on since the Crusades and Richard the Lionheart during the times of Robin Hood or even before that. So we all should get used to all this because if Global Warming doesn't kill all life on earth I expect to see this Terrorist or Crusader War still going on in one form or another 1000 years from now because in a certain way nothing has changed from the times of Richard the Lionhearted
of the 1100's in England. The only relief I could see coming is if people both Christian and Islamic become more secular in their thinking. But even then there would be wars over resources between corporations and between nations if nations continue to exist in a real way.
I personally think the biggest threat to the secular Christian world is not fundamentalist Islam but Global Warming. In other words the biggest single threat to most Islamic nations is not the Christians or the Christian world but drought, Winds, floods, famine and pestilence in the next few hundred years. I hope all cultures on earth wake up to this fact before all the biggest nations go bankrupt fighting issues that might be redundant if we're all dead by Global Warming.

Surviving Ones Life
Surviving Ones Life. There are times in life that seem impossible to deal with. In fact, I would say that every point in ones life has some of these impossible elements. However, I also have this theory that there tends to be an equal amount of good and bad stuff happening in ones life at one time. This may not be obvious to everyone because each person is attached to different things. For example, when one is in ones teens it appears to be more about relationships. However, in ones 20's and 30's it begins to be more about money. By ones 40's and 50's it is more about health and extended family. By the time ones 60's and beyond come it is about maintaining enough health and money to continue to live in a body on earth successfully. So the problem of having enough good things going on in ones life to stay alive is an ongoing one, it's just that the types of problems tend to change through time.
I have also noticed that kids who deal with more family problems growing up than most sometimes do quite well in their 20's. Whereas someone like myself that comes from a very good family suffers a lot psychologically at least in ones 20's. This, for me at least was about having very good parents and not having to worry about money that much while growing up. For me, the problems growing up were about health and being raised in a religion that so few people adhered to worldwide that I had to be careful even speaking about my religion until the late 1960's when everything on the West Coast changed dramatically. You can't imagine how weird it was in the 1950's to be raised a vegetarian even in Los Angeles. For example, what was I going to eat in any restaurant: Baked potatoes, mushroom soup, tomato soup and a grilled cheese sandwich? Because of this my family and I seldom went out to restaurants except for a few vegetarian restaurants at places like Self Realization Fellowship in Hollywood or Encinitas near San Diego. However, those places don't exist anymore. Now there are restaurants and vegetarian eateries even in every Whole Foods Grocery Store. And Los Angeles, San Francisco, Seattle, Portland and many other cities like San Diego are dotted with vegetarian restaurants which wasn't the case when I grew up in the 1950's.
Though 1969 to 1971 I had to struggle to not self destruct, the most difficult times in my life began with my father's passing in 1985. With my father's passing I began to unravel. Though I had married and had a son by this time and had divorced and married again a lady with 2 kids already who was also divorced, when my father passed away I had no idea it was going to tear up my life like it did. This wasn't my Dad's fault. It was mine for not realizing how much a part of my life my Dad was. Also, the religion I was raised in had an unrealistic view of how people were going to ascend at the end of their lives like Jesus. To some of you this might sound ridiculous and to me now it does too. But at that time thinking that way was all I knew so when Dad got prostate cancer, then bone cancer and eventually died because he didn't believe in Doctors or trust them I realized how limited my father's view of reality really was. Even though I would call my Dad a spiritual John Wayne kind of figure in real life, there are real limitations to being that strong, that inflexible etc. I really had to grow a lot when my Dad passed on because my mother became like a ship without a rudder and moved about 8 or 9 times until she got senile dementia at age 82 and had to be institutionalized in an alzheimer's and senile dementia facility. So when my Dad passed on in a way I lost both my parents because my mother wouldn't listen to any of my common sense decisions to help her life. Instead she usually would act like she agreed with me and then eventually do the opposite. As a result it created many problems in her life and mine. I just think she couldn't imagine listening to any child she had raised all the way from being a baby. However, I had to realize I couldn't be my Dad for all the people who still needed him. Dad was definitive and scary and I was always more of a negotiator and a peacemaker in the family. Whereas Dad always had the last word but you always knew where you stood with him. What I miss the most about my father was that he would always tell me the truth whether it hurt me or not. There are so few people in life that don't just give platitudes. There are so few people who tell you the truth about anything. Whether I agreed with Dad or not I always knew he would be there for me to the death, and even after that if he could manage it.

Enrichment
Enrichment: I had a dream last night in which a young man (under 30) financed his upper division education through graduate school education by writing a self help and get rich type of book series. He would also lecture people about his system. His system not only made him rich but also financed his education. Though most people would just take the money he valued his education for its own sake and so pursued it through to a PHD in Psychology and eventually became a psychologist.
In some ways this kind of thinking reminded me of when I was young. I was also studying psychology at the time I got married and had a son. It became too difficult for me financially to stay in school at the time and I didn't want to owe thousands of dollars in student loans so I just started working full time to support my wife and son. I have never really regretted that because my son gave me a reason to stay alive for real and no education would have done that for me. However, I continued to study, learn and to educate myself regarding anything I have been interested in and continued to take community College courses until I went to a University.
This dream sequence as I began to wake up triggered past life memories in Atlantis when I worked on developing sentient robots to work with and help people. In this life I began in this direction again at age 18 but by 21 I saw that we were about 50 years too early for what I wanted to do so I went on to other things in my life. The interesting thing is that now we are just entering the time I wanted to be in. However, now I see things completely differently than I did at 20 or 21. My life brought me through many experiences that moved me to study spirit and nature and religions and philosophy, anthropology, sociology and psychology. This brings me to a totally different world view than I had when I was 20.
If I had traveled down the path I was on at 20 I would now be very closed minded likely. I would not have opened myself to understanding many cultures, especially Tibetan and Nepali and India. My experiences living with Sherpas in the Himalayas and visiting Dharmsala, India where the Dalai Lama lives have completely changed my world view as well as my view on spirituality and Religion. I, personally found that the Tibetan form of Buddhism had more to share with me personally than anything else I studied. Sure, there are flaws to any system. For example, I did not find enough equality for women in Tibetan Buddhist Culture because women in the United States have more equality. However, I found in Nepal for example, that women tend to own everything because it is a matriarchal culture. So the men have an entirely different role in that culture. This has created a different kind of equality there. So even though it is very different than here it works in its own way.
For example, California where I live is still based a lot upon Spanish law traditionally. In Spain there is a matriarchal culture as well where women control wealth a lot. So this has created a very equal playing field for women in California to the point where we are a no fault state. In other words no one has to be at fault legally for the dissolution of a marriage. This creates a kind of equality of the sexes and lessens the problems in divorce to some degree in California because of the historical role of matriarchal thought and law traditionally when California belonged to Spain starting in the 1500's until 1849 when California became one of the United States.
Anyway, I'm digressing. For me, my dream simply connected some of the many Freds I have been in many different lifetimes so that I could see them in a new light. Rather than seeing one as good and another as bad I saw this time each one had its value in the culture my body and soul lived in. Each person I was was a direct response to the problems that I encountered in that lifetime. So the basic thing I realized was that whoever I became was whoever I could be and survive the problems of that life and culture. This gave me an entirely different take on all my lives. Before this, I had tended to view myself as intrinsically the same person in each lifetime rather than taking into account all the traumas and experiences of each lifetime in their effects on my being and soul. Even though understanding this is much more overwhelming to my senses it makes much more logical sense than my previous understanding of reincarnation.
Also, one does not necessarily embody as just a male. Though I can remember some of my female incarnations they are usually more male in their approach to life. It is possible that I have also been in many other female lifetimes its just that I can't perceive life that way anymore. It is such a different approach to life for me that I just can't always get there in consciousness.
In some ways this kind of thinking reminded me of when I was young. I was also studying psychology at the time I got married and had a son. It became too difficult for me financially to stay in school at the time and I didn't want to owe thousands of dollars in student loans so I just started working full time to support my wife and son. I have never really regretted that because my son gave me a reason to stay alive for real and no education would have done that for me. However, I continued to study, learn and to educate myself regarding anything I have been interested in and continued to take community College courses until I went to a University.
This dream sequence as I began to wake up triggered past life memories in Atlantis when I worked on developing sentient robots to work with and help people. In this life I began in this direction again at age 18 but by 21 I saw that we were about 50 years too early for what I wanted to do so I went on to other things in my life. The interesting thing is that now we are just entering the time I wanted to be in. However, now I see things completely differently than I did at 20 or 21. My life brought me through many experiences that moved me to study spirit and nature and religions and philosophy, anthropology, sociology and psychology. This brings me to a totally different world view than I had when I was 20.

The Problem Caused by Religion
The Problem Caused by Religion. I keep reading about televangelists and religious politicians having sexual and/or marital problems. I think the real problem is that when people study religion before they study themselves, humanity the world and their REAL needs, problems are going to arise. It really doesn't matter what religion it is. Breathing, eating, drinking water, urination, defecation, sexual release and human companionship are all necessary for someone to be both healthy and sane. When any one of these very real human needs is denied repeatedly there are going to be either physical or mental or emotional problems long term or short term. I might believe for example(I don't really) that unless I live underwater and breathe the air in the water I can't go to heaven. How long do you think that will last? Though not doing any one of the above may take longer eventually people snap in one way or another. When will people develop common sense about these things? I guess it is just natural selection in action! Without common sense people don't survive well and sometimes they don't survive at all!

Saving Bees and Spiders
Saving Bees and Spiders. Whether you keep bees and spiders alive like I do because of ahimsa(vowing to not kill anything) or whether you just understand that the more bees are left alive(especially these day) the more that humans might survive because pollination will continue so humans will have most fruits and vegetables to eat because of the pollination. And if you don't like mosquitos biting you and giving you West Nile Virus and if you don't like flies contaminating your food by barfing on it like they do then keeping spiders and mosquito hawks alive is a good idea.
Where I live there are a variety of spiders called daddylonglegs. Though these spiders are the most poisonous in America they cannot bite through human skin and therefore are safe for humans to be around. However, they kill all the other spiders because they are the most poisonous. So if I see a jumping or other spider I usher is quickly out of the house in a wad of toilet paper. However, if it is a daddylonglegs I let it stay until it is 1 inch to 2 inches in diameter but if it is laying eggs and having babies then they go out immediately. In this way I maintain the ecosystem within my house to my liking and I have almost no mosquitos or flies to worry about because all the spiders set up house in the eves outside of my home and garden
and protect my home and family like guard dogs. The other positive thing about all this is that I don't engender negative karma or negative will against me by killing anything unnecessarily.

E.T. Revisited
E.T. Revisited. My wife and I sat down and watched the 20th anniversary copy of E.T. that we own on DVD. I hadn't seen the movie in some time but I had been wanting to for a long time. I was amazed how timeless that movie is and how artful Spielburg was and is with our emotions. I think the movie came out within a couple of years of Raiders of the Lost Ark, the first one with Harrison Ford.
I have written a couple of things fairly intuitively in realm of E.T. lately. However, since I'm intuitive lots of times what I write stands up as true for those of you capable of testing what I write about. Everyone has their strengths and weaknesses. I write about what I like and what I think I know something about. However, at my age I have learned the more one learns the more one realizes how little they really know. At age 20 or 21 people think they know everything but it is mostly an illusion. But in a way it's good they think that otherwise nothing new would get done. Having faith in oneself or an idea is very powerful both in the short run and in the long run. Young people accomplish things simply because they don't believe those who tell them they can't or that it's impossible. People accomplish the impossible because they believe it can be done. God Bless those who do the impossible anyway and make it worthwhile to be a human on Earth.

Musings of a precognitive psychic
Science Fiction? Since most of you are not lifelong precognitive psychics that have had the capacity to be telepathic when necessary I believe you should consider the following(unless you have had similar experiences) as theoretical in nature or fantastical in nature.
I write in this manner to encourage people to become all that they can be as a soul manifest on earth in a human body or for beings beyond earth to be all you can be in whatever form you now inhabit.
My memories span about 6 millions years. I can remember from about 5 million years BC to about 1 million years AD. However, I'm not always sure how useful all this is except when I meet someone who is reincarnated in the present that I have known in the past or future.
What I find is there is no one that I Speak to in this lifetime that I haven't known as a friend or relative or closer in another lifetime. So many times I'll be walking down the street I realize that I have known this or that person before. Usually, I will just quietly send them a blessing(prayer) and walk on my way unless they introduce themselves as I don't want to frighten people by walking up to them and starting a conversation. That might be okay for someone who was under 5 foot 10 inches tall with a very mild personality. However, I am almost 6 foot 5 inches tall and very strong built and I find introducing myself except during an emergency or a necessary communication to be difficult for people because my size and strength intimidates people. Even if I make my personality very mild it sometimes scares people. So generally speaking I let people come talk to me if they feel something unless there are very special circumstances.
I have memories of some of my lifetimes between 1100 AD to 1930Ad that were on the Asian Continent. There were also lifetimes during that time period of lifetimes in Europe and the United States as well. These lifetimes were based upon friends and relatives and what I was trying to learn as a soul at the time. Souls tend to travel in groups through incarnation after incarnation much like people do here in this lifetime. They do this so they won't feel so alone. Incarnating in groups can be very good or very bad depending upon the soul. Sometimes souls can be supportive and other times they can be destructive to the evolution of a soul. Generally speaking it is good to stay with beings both in between lifetimes and during lifetimes that take you to a good place and not a bad one. To stay with people that drag you down or just drain your life blood isn't good generally for the soul. However, for really profoundly developed souls like say a Jesus or a Buddha it doesn't really matter so much because they will do whatever it takes to lift everyone. But souls this developed are very rare and it takes thousands of virtuous lifetimes to become like them. Just like in the same time it takes a lot of work to become a good doctor or psychologist. A lot of people aspire to be a really good doctor or psychologist but how many really make it there? The same is true of a Jesus or a Buddha.
Also, it is my personal experience that not everyone chooses to have multiple lifetimes or even one lifetime in a physical body in a place like earth or any of the other thousands to millions of planets in our galaxy. (There are planets in thousands of galaxies that are inhabited by various types of life forms including humanoids). I would define humanoids as beings with 2 eyes, five fingers and 5 toes on hands and feet that have legs and arms etc. and are from 20incles to 50 feet in height. Note:added Friday 9-28-07 I was told that the smallest humanoids in this galaxy are about 1/2 inch in height. Their children are about 1/4 inch or less and their babies are 1/16 of an inch or less. They live on a moon with atmosphere and water and are therefore genetically designed for optimum living conditions and longevity there. They wanted you to know so if we visit there we don't step on them accidentally. end note
In the writings of Buddha he speaks of many of these places and even Jesus says, "In my father's house are many mansions."

Theories of Space and Time
More on theories of space and Time. I do not have a degree in Physics but I am interested in the subject and have studied some in regard to this subjects and many others. What I tend to be best at is in being a synthesist. In other words I do my best in bringing different disciplines together in an intuitive instinctual way and thereby creating something useful and new.
It is my present understanding that Earth has its own unique version of space time. In other words the average person may think(just like those who thought the earth is flat) that time is constant throughout the universe. In fact, this is just not true. So it is my understanding that the mass, existence and movement of earth combined with its spinning core of hot magma create our unique space-time that we tend to experience here on earth. Of course there are other factors like the effects of every other energy or mass in the universe upon earth and her specific space-time. So then the magnetic fields and associated gravitational fields of earth are what I would like to talk about. In theory these gravitational fields and magnetic fields which permeate and surround earth as if it were a giant magnet with north and south poles are the basis not only of all electricity generated on earth but also of altering space time by using a little of the power of the magnetic and gravitational fields to generate the necessary force to actually travel through space time to any other space time.
So, in theory if one wanted to travel say to the center of the galaxy in a ship based upon a space time drive one would first shift to a location near the sun and then using the gigantic north south magnetic and gravitational fields of the sun access the power to shift instantly into the center of the Galaxy, hopefully arriving at a safe location that could maintain human life in the ship. Since beings that live near the center of the galaxy would have different physical needs than ones where we live arriving at a safe location might be a lot to ask for. But that is not to say that it wouldn't be possible to do.

Behavior Modification by Pheromones
Behavior Modification. Spraying pheromones over populated areas is causing behavior modification of the affected humans, animals, birds, insects etc. No one wants their homes, schools, cities to be sprayed for the Australian light brown apple moth! Since I last wrote on the subject I have learned a lot about the subject. First of all, when we returned to our home in Coastal Monterey County, California after the spraying was supposed to stop but didn't my wife immediately within 24 hours of our arrival got asthmatic bronchitus and was laid up for one week on heavy meds to prevent a stay in the hospital. I felt myself getting a sore throat along with my daughter from the spraying but stopped full illness by will power, garlic caps, and taking heavy doses of vitamin C so I could take care of my wife during her pheromone spraying caused illness.
By the way, everyone who volunteered at schools after the spraying to wash and wipe down playground equipment got sick, in Marina, Seaside, Monterey, Pacific Grove and Pebble Beach, California. Carmel was sprayed even though they weren't notified. We were notified only by a postcard that arrived less than 24 hours before the aerial spraying began. My wife's physician expects a new cardiovascular disease to be named after the spraying that is beginning here but looks like the spraying could spread all over California.
Another doctor we know of that specializes in menopause problems says that pheromones are common to most creatures and they affect the hormone balance of almost all things that breathe air. In humans it affects sleep cycles long term. In my own case my sleep cycle has been altered about 4 hours from my own norm. My wife's cycle has been altered in that she can't sleep hardly at all. I have heard the same sleeping complaint from many women over 35 since the spraying started. I have listened to birds outside my house and even their songs have changed to something that sounds like, "What the F--- is going on?"
Though it is bad enough that our area has been sprayed it is much worse than that now. Yesterday, on local tv news I heard that spraying of pheromones by air is going to spread now to Santa Cruz County, and to Las Lomas, Prunedale, Aromas and to Salinas. Since this variety of apple moth from Australia breeds prolifically it lays between 300 to 1500 eggs at a time and it eats not only the tender leaves of crops but also it likes ornamentals and oaks and even pine needles. The diet includes somewhere between 250 to over 1000 or more varieties of plants. They are in at least 11 or more California Counties including Los Angeles County. However, I believe it is very unlikely that spraying pheromones will stop their spread. The main reason they are spreading so fast is that ornamental growers unknowingly are transporting them all over the state to this state and others because their are no laws in place yet to stop and check ornamental plants. There is no other insect that I know of that is native to the U. S. that eats so many different things. Most insects eat only one or just a few types of plants. So the Australian Apple Moth is a potentially devastating creature for Agribusiness throughout the United States, Canada and Mexico and further south.
If my wife gets ill again we are considering putting my daughter in independent study from her private school and moving out of the area until the spraying stops one year from now. They are planning to spray our area again in early October and every month for one year. That is just too much behavior modification for us. I don't even drink alcohol except once a month or less so I'm not interested in living my life this altered. Also, I don't want my wife to die from her obviously allergic reactions to the spraying.

A Time Space Drive?
A Time-Space Drive? Science Fiction? When I saw Flight of the Navigator, the Disney movie much of it was familiar to me because I had lived it as a child. My only real question was: Was I the only child on earth to have these kinds of experiences or were there thousands or millions of us? I can remember sitting in church being bored and then a Green CRT(a green screen television monitor) appeared in the air in front of me there in church. On it were the plans to build a time-space drive that was designed to fit into a flying saucer. At the time I wondered why this would be given to a child of only 8 or 9 years old. I could read the plans as I had been trained on Electrical wiring diagrams for building houses and warehouses by my father since I was 5 or 6. So it all seemed quite logical to me then. The only thing was: Why were they showing this to me? It seemed to me much more useful to give this to some adult. I still don't fully have an answer to that even now.
The drive was amazingly simple much like an electric motor is with copper windings and magnets and an armature that can spin and break the magnetic field and thereby generate electricity by continually breaking the magnetic field with the copper windings. Only instead of using batteries the whole magnetic field of earth is used as a power source and with this as a power source much like when Nicola Tesla who invented alternating current electrified Boulder Colorado the energy was free. There are no power meters at all involved nor do I think there could be for measuring how much power one is using or for billing purposes.
As I understood it at the time the main part was and is a man made crystal or man made? diamond that is, like the Great Pyramid, a direct ratio to the weight and size and mass of the Earth itself. So for a 25 or so foot diameter ufo saucer shape on would need about a 3 foot diameter Glass Crystal or Diamond as a base armature in the center of the craft. However, the 3 foot diameter Crystal or Diamond hovers once the craft is turned on. In this hovering position(levitating position) it is then free to spin in any direction (depending on where the driver wants to go and at what speed) Since I don't have a degree in Physics or Aerodynamics that is about as far as I can take it at present. Once resonance is reached then a way of focusing the energy allows for the positioning of the craft in relation to the magnetic fields of earth. A ship of this sort travels, I guess along the ley lines of the planet that are directly connected to the magnetic fields. So even though the magnetic fields might be moving the ley lines are constant in relation to the earth just like GPS readings are constant within about 3 feet in any direction usually. How the Time travel aspect works I don't entirely know. However, I do know that the time altering part of the drive is necessary for a zero to 5000 mile an hour acceleration in less than a second. So, I imagine that time is altered somewhat in the same way for instance that one makes a smooth braking stop in a car except in reverse only in this case warping time enough so one doesn't die in a zero to 5000 mile acceleration in less than a second.
At the time when I was 8 or 9 I understood that this was the primary form of transportation with in the Galaxy, in about a 25 foot diameter saucer shape. Of course there are many variations of this within the galaxy but this form of drive and the small saucer shape is the primary way humanoids from about 3 feet in height to about 7 feet in height travel the galaxies instantly(at least according to their experience of time). How much time the ship actually experiences is another question. By humanoid residents of this galaxy this basic drive and saucer shape is and was thought of about the way we saw a vw Bug in the late 1960's and early 1970's.

So for a 25 or so foot diameter ufo saucer shape on would need about a 3 foot diameter Glass Crystal or Diamond as a base armature in the center of the craft. However, the 3 foot diameter Crystal or Diamond hovers once the craft is turned on. In this hovering position(levitating position) it is then free to spin in any direction (depending on where the driver wants to go and at what speed) Since I don't have a degree in Physics or Aerodynamics that is about as far as I can take it at present. Once resonance is reached then a way of focusing the energy allows for the positioning of the craft in relation to the magnetic fields of earth. A ship of this sort travels, I guess along the ley lines of the planet that are directly connected to the magnetic fields. So even though the magnetic fields might be moving the ley lines are constant in relation to the earth just like GPS readings are constant within about 3 feet in any direction usually. How the Time travel aspect works I don't entirely know. However, I do know that the time altering part of the drive is necessary for a zero to 5000 mile an hour acceleration in less than a second. So, I imagine that time is altered somewhat in the same way for instance that one makes a smooth braking stop in a car except in reverse only in this case warping time enough so one doesn't die in a zero to 5000 mile acceleration in less than a second.
At the time when I was 8 or 9 I understood that this was the primary form of transportation with in the Galaxy, in about a 25 foot diameter saucer shape. Of course there are many variations of this within the galaxy but this form of drive and the small saucer shape is the primary way humanoids from about 3 feet in height to about 7 feet in height travel the galaxies instantly(at least according to their experience of time). How much time the ship actually experiences is another question. By humanoid residents of this galaxy this basic drive and saucer shape is and was thought of about the way we saw a vw Bug in the late 1960's and early 1970's.
Fearful or Fearless?
Fearful or Fearless? As a human being in any given moment we have these two choices. For one reason or the other we tend to choose one or the other each moment we live. Because I have come close to death for long periods of time at age 2, at ages 10to15 and at ages 50 and 51, I have seen both. As a teenager I found I could go back and forth between fear and fearlessness pretty easily, almost without effort. One moment I would be fearlessly climbing trees, scuba diving, going off the high dive, jumping dirt bikes(motorcycles) 8 feet off the ground and then alternately worrying about a girlfriend or someone who had been fearless at the wrong time my age and who was now dead.
I think one sees fearlessness more in 3rd world countries where one is constantly surrounded by death. When I travelled India and Nepal for 4 months in 1985&6 with my family it changed the 5 of us greatly. Though I don't miss the complete sense of constant overwhelm of the senses I do miss greatly the preciousness of meeting people who really know death and just how precious life really is. In comparison, most people I meet in the United States are like sleepwalkers in comparison in the way they navigate their lives.
There was a statement made by an African in the movie Blackhawk Down. He said something like "Americans live long boring lives but here in Africa we live quick interesting ones!" I think that about says the truth of life. You can live a long boring one or you can live a quick interesting one. It is always your choice.
In a strange way I have lived both kinds of lives at different points in my life. So for me, the most amazing thing is that I'm still alive at 59 years of age. At age 25 I really never expected to see 30. But at 30 I was a single parent raising my son alone. When my son was born when I was 26 I realized I needed to stay alive for him so I stopped Rock climbing. I think this was a good idea because one of my rock climbing buddies died climbing within 2 years. So I guess you could say my son saved my life.
I have always had very good instincts about how far I could take things and still survive. I've noticed most people don't seem to have that ability. For example, I realized that I couldn't ride my off road motorcycle every day. I rationed myself to 2 hours two days a week. I found that if I rode more than that I started to get injured doing stunts and taking risks. I found if I rode I had to keep pushing the envelope until I got injured.
I found the same thing in regard to dating from ages 21 to 25. When I broke up with the girl I had planned the next 20 years around at age 21 I was lost. So rather than commit suicide directly or by accident taking risks I would look for another girlfriend and then another and then another. I found this was a way for me to stay alive. Because as long as I was dating someone I knew I couldn't commit suicide directly or indirectly. So the end result of this was that between 1969 and 1973 I had a lot of girlfriends. People seem at times impressed with this. However, I wasn't happy doing this. It was just a way to stay alive until I found the right girl I could settle down and live with. I can remember saying to friends even at age 25, "I'm going to have a long series of girlfriends. I don't think I'll ever settle down." Within 6 months of this my then live in girlfriend got pregnant and we married before my son was born. This changed everything in my life since. Though my girlfriend-wife and I broke up within 4 years I raised my son to adulthood by myself. Though I was 26 when my son was born my wife was only 21 and not ready for being a wife or a mother. Actually, I don't think she was ever ready to be a mother for life, but a girlfriend and a wife, yes.
So are you fearful or fearless? I guess there is a time for everything.

To Die With My Boots On
To Die With My Boots On. I've always had a fantasy of one day realizing that I'd just had enough life maybe at say 80 or 90. And that I would drive in my car or take a bus if I was no longer driving some winter day and go to Mt. Shasta where my Dad's ashes are and walk into the snowstorm on the mountain and never come back. Now, I realize this is fantasy because the reality is that if you have a wife or significant other, if you have kids you care about and are close to, if you have friends that you care about, you wouldn't be able to do this because it could harm them or cause one of them to suicide in losing you in this way.
However, I have told my wife that I refuse to ever go to an old folks home and that she should expect me to go missing in a snowstorm because if I can't live at home then my home is the snowstorm and I would feel sorry for those who found my body half eaten by some fox, wolf, coyote, dog or Turkey vulture. So, given the choice, for me the choice would be the snowstorm.
