Shameless name dropping. Sorry. He held court here and our guests gathered around. He knows quite a few back stories from Hollywood which were really interesting. He liked my UFO book collection, but REALLY got off on my Tom Swift, Jr. collection. We both read them in grade school.

I think there are at least three motivators here and what we or they would do depends on these issues. 1. Resources (ala Avatar). If they have something we want, we'll try to take it, and vice versa. It's all about possession, not ownership. they aren't the same thing. 2. Trade. This could...

Interesting angle. It moves the issue from the Anthropic Principal to one of volition. It inserts mind into the equation as the thing that creates the reality. Not such a bad idea. It conforms with quantum mechanics.

You mean, hearing voices is considered strange???

Thank you, Gareth! Sami, now this is just speculation on my part, but I think most everyone on these forums has studied these issues for some time. We may not all be post-docs in research, but we are not neophytes either. I think you could save yourself some grief if you just assumed we aren't...

I don't think so (he said very slowly). I read the Holographic Universe years ago. I don't think it resorted to a dbms model of 'record keeping' but maintained the memory angle of holography in that you could see the whole from the parts. I'd have to go back and re-read it to make sure, which...

If there were a nearby ET civilization that discovered our existence, our basic attitude, and the current level of our technology, the most rational thing they could do would be to hurl a couple of asteroids our way. Their own existence as a species might very well be in question and they could...

To put it in a terrestrial perspective, the idea is that all the attributes of a given object are in a record for that object and intrinsic to it, i.e.: The record for the object is part of the object itself. So for example, part of the record for my house is its location, which would be...

How do we know Skunkape is anything but a bot that posts random words on the forums with no human intervention? After all, on the Internet nobody knows if you're a dog. (No offense, Moses. Good boy!)

Actually there are three ‘origin hypotheses’ about ‘UFOs’ The first and oldest is the ‘Extra-terrestrial Hypothesis’ that UFOs/Aliens come, literally from other planets in other solar systems. The second is the ‘Inter-Dimensional Hypothesis’ which suggests that somehow there are more the...

OK. I did it, but, really. Anyone who listens to this is going to come away with the clear idea that Colonel KK is a nutzoid. Yeah, it's slanderous--no question, but nobody is going to come away from that vid thinking ill of David. I say, "Right on, dB!" KK is delusional and cooking his own...

Folks, Some of you are acting as if the boy who pointed out the Emperor has no clothes is to blame for pointing it out. To those of you who have said I have been spiteful, you don't know what the word means. THIS is spiteful: News to Chew! Get it? (Page down a bit.) Now, to someone without any...

The way I read this statement is that he is speaking speculatively. He starts out talking about a 'false scare' and then enumerates several, quoting Alvin Toeffler, the futurist, in the process. I honestly do not know anything about ELF excepting its use in submarine communications, so I'm not...

Oh, don't get me wrong! Criticism from the lunatic fringe is an honor and always appreciated as well as expected. I've been warned by several people that the doe-eyed Dolan lapdogs would leap to his defense. I also know that researchers such as Stan Friedman, Kevin Randle, Jerry Clark, Brad...

Let me get this straight, mikec. You've got all this to say, yet you haven't finished the review, and I take it you haven't read the book either. And you're an artist and you've met Dolan. That's great, really, really great.

Birds of a feather

https://www.theparacast.com/images/dolan.pdf Above is a link to my review of Richard Dolan's second volume of UFOs and the National Security State, titled Richard Dolan's Tin Foil Hat; a general systems theory of conspiracy. It also touches a bit on the first volume. I do hope that if you...

Good point about Troy. But in terms of Plato, it looks like the good Dr. is correct. Here's just a bit from wikipedia: As continental drift became more widely accepted during the 1960s, and the increased understanding of plate tectonics demonstrated the impossibility of a lost continent in...

Very well, but I'm tired of it. I have laid out my position, including supportive data, in the last thread: Why is Global Warming a Hoax??
