As promised, I have read the book and authored a short review. It's yet to go "live," but I gave it 5 stars. Not sure I will ever eat a steak again without a second thought, tho. :cool: Mutes aren't really my thing, but I found your book compelling enough that I'm now looking forward to your...

Doesn't surprise me, please realize though I've been off the forum and haven't listened for 5-6 years. I'm still in the process of getting caught up in the backlog of shows. :)

@Christopher O'Brien You talk of areas that are out of bounds to tribal populations because of their association with skinwalkers such as the aptly named Skinwalker Ranch. Are there other areas where there is a similar taboo? If you don't want to name locations, it won't bother me. I'm more...

It's also a bit troubling that assumption that alien life is going to be bipedal hominids.

Personally, I'm not holding my breath for SETI to find anything, but for a group looking for E.T. signals, they are much more scientific in their approach than say someone like Greer. I'd rather have a group like SETI looking at anomalous signals than the starry-eyed. Can you imagine if SETI...

I enjoyed the show. I hope you'll have him back when he's ready to talk some more about Socorro.

Oh that's right. How could I have forgotten Howe and Bassett? :eek: Regardless, you are exactly right, especially when there are real scientists in the field. And his use of the Anonymous mask and some of their branding and video techniques is just really strange. It doesn't seem to jive...

Oi. I couldn't get through the whole episode. I don't know how Gene and Chris managed this one, as I pretty much left it after Correia's fawning of Greer and his seeming lack of knowledge of the better known and respected researchers in the field. I can't take a guy seriously when the only...

Give her a chance, they may have run out of time on the show. She just answered mine today in the question thread. Perhaps an answer to your question is forthcoming.

This stuff can truly happen anywhere. I seem to recall even a Buddhist organization in San Francisco that got tagged pretty hard for not having some guidelines in place for similar situation some years back. Just so I understand, you seem to think that a lack of adequately addressing sexual...

Hope you mend quickly, Chris.

I do agree, that often people's interests are shaped by their peer groups to GMP's point. I think that's changing. I see women show more interest in things that males have traditionally gravitated to, like video games and comic books, than they ever did when I was younger; these were things...

Wait, didn't someone already make the claim the reptilians came from Venus? :D

Does Erica have any ideas for strategies to help increase the number of women in this field? Has she implemented any strategies? What does she see as the largest obstacles that keep women from becoming researchers?

I was merely talking about the conditions under which I felt a planet would be a candidate for seeding purely in the hypothetical realm. DuDuve might be end up being correct, but at this point we don't have enough hard physical data on exoplanets falling within that Goldilocks zone. I am very...

Venus has little to no water and no magnetic fields. It would never be a good terraforming candidate. Plus it's atmosphere is not just CO2, it has sulphuric acid, too. And I think that Sagan reconsidered his proposal in the '90s as we had better information as to the composition of Venus and...

I've been reticent to add anything to this thread. But here is my two cents, anyway. There has been discussion among those who espouse the theory of bicameralism, that mediumship and spiritualism may actually be a throwback to an earlier mindstate. Despite the "realness" of the experience...

Duly noted.

I was only speaking to how easily it would be to seed a planet as Randall wanted to make it way more difficult than it is. ;) I agree, though that if indigenous life can arise on this planet, it could happen on others and would need to be a consideration in any discussion regarding seeding...
