Another drive-by tub thumping.... Come on: can't you package and promote your pet theory without jamming up the boards of paranormal forums? Learn to publish a url.

Hmm. Somebody may want to inform the Windward School in White Plains NY of this breaking news. They apparently hired him under the pretense he had a degree in Earth Science (teaching children with language-based developmental disorders at that). Not to mention Joe McCarthy Observatory and...

Despite the hullabaloo on this one, I'd have to admit I'm not surprised. Shocked in a sense that Phil put his very life at risk for a balloon ride in a fringe field, however this sort of attraction to high risk behavior may be a bit of a clue as to what propels this man. Beyond the misery...

I dig this. Reminiscent of Celine's Brigadoon with a dash of Phillip K. Dick, perhaps channeled through Vallee.

Why I am getting the impression you're trying to orchestrate the way people are thinking on this topic? Maybe if you just skipped to the chase and made the covert - overt, we'd all be much better served.

Hmm. Interesting. Maybe I could ask him, however I'm not sure he'd feel obligated to answer me.

Being a first born, i am propelled to do so. And off I'd go.

Your "sadness" may suggest a lack of understanding of the subject you are approaching, or perhaps you are wrestling with your own fragility. Do us a favor, and respect our right to make a determination on the risks ourselves -this isn't morality kindergarten in here.

Jettisoned whale belly.

Leaning heavily towards another flag carrier in the BS parade.

What's interesting is the reactions to the concept of hybridization, and specifically the discomfort that is generated around the notion that such a process could be being engineered by an outside "alien" source. Psychologically this notion of changing, nurturing, integrating and propelling...

Confirmed. My interests have painted me as a bit of a pariah amongst friends and some family. However, I've managed to translate this interest into my professional sphere, both through contacts with like minded psychology types and through clients looking for a safe conduit to explore such...

Yeah, Ram Dass and Tim Leary had a similar idea and it involved dropping LSD into the water supply. Now it's technology. Twenty years down the road I'm guessing there will be a similar "coming down to Earth" around processing the naivitee about such a proposition.

I have to admit, I like your take on the whole mind/consciousness business. It's like reverse engineering the Eastern "all is mind" koan. However, if things turn out otherwise, I'd hate to see you shuttled into the afterlife struggling to keep your cool with all that is incompatible. That...

I hear you. However if you're attributing self as a correlative of brain, body and material function, consciousness gets lumped right in there as being a product of these processes which emerge from organ and brain states. If materiality is a byproduct of consciousness, a fundamental state...

I'd suggest he get into the tee-shirt business. First press: "I survived Judgement Day, May 2I, 20II."

Well, I just had a 30 min treatise on metaphysics get destroyed thanks to a power cord malfunction. Probably a good thing, seeing I'll get straight to the point. Science is a reaction to supernaturalism, and that's seems about as good a reason to begin a project as any. But a great leap was...

Is there a parrot in here?

I wonder if believing in ghosts has anything to do with the phenom. Having said that, I've met many a ghost, and some of them are stuck selling Uggs to teenage girls at malls, some are carrying on dead-end relationships yEArs after their kids have launched, and some are returning to school to...

I found this guy a good read -but then again, I enjoy Pynchon and Rushdie.
