Date: 8 Dec 89 00:18:00 GMT Part 4 <...Continued from previous message> [CUT:] Lazar: I don't think that you can ever synthesize it. The amount of -- You essentially have to assemble it by bombarding it with protons; if atom by atom, it would take an infinite amount of power and an infinite amount of time. The substance has to come from a place where super-heavy elements could have been produced naturally. [CUT:] Knapp: And what sort of place is that? [CUT:] Lazar: Next to a much larger sun where there would be greater mass. Maybe a binary star system -- a super-nova -- somewhere where there is just a bigger release of energy to synthesize these things naturally. It has to be a naturally occurring element. [CUT:] Knapp: 115 is the fuel for the anti-matter reactors, he says. By bombarding 115, anti-matter is produced. A kilo of anti-matter could produce the energy equivalent of 46 ten-megaton hydrogen bombs, and comparing the energy potential of anti-matter to, say, the Hoover Dam, would be like comparing planets to grains of sand. 115 could also make one heck of a bomb. [CUT:] Lazar: We're talking about hundreds and hundreds of megatons off a small piece of it. It sounds incredible, but total conversion of matter to energy would release that amount of power. And it isn't that difficult to take -- get the energy out of it. So it's not something you'd ever want to fall into anyone's hands. [CUT:] Knapp: The dangers associated with 115 and anti-matter may be the reason Lazar was hired to work at S-4. There was an accident, he says, back in April 1987, an accident that was passed off as an unannounced nuclear test. [CUT:] Lazar: Some people got killed. I was told flat out I was one of the people that were to replace these guys. [CUT:] Knapp: Is this why the government might be keeping the whole matter a secret? Because of the military potential of alien technology? Lazar says he believes the Soviet Union was once part of our research on the flying disks, but that the U.S. kicked the Soviets out after making some sort of discovery. He also believes the program at S-4 is operated with funds allocated to Star Wars research, but says he can't prove it. Some UFO researchers suspect the government is test flying alien craft so that it can one day master the technology and claim it was made in the good old U.S.A., thus obscuring the possibility of alien visitations. [CUT:] Stanton T. Friedman: I think they have the duty to inform us. At least to the bare bones of what's going on. I don't want technological stuff put out on the table. I mean, I worked on classified projects for 15 years, and I don't think we need another weapon's delivery system. But I think the government does have the responsibility to release information that, indeed, the planet is being visited. Probably it should be done in conjunction with the Soviets. [CUT:] Lazar: I don't think that it will get to that level. They're not going to have a fleet of them and fly them around, and I don't think you need to do that. If you're looking at them from a weapons point of view, you're looking at an incredibly powerful device. You only need one that operates. You don't ever need to come public with it. You may want to learn more about it should it ever break which is -- might be -- what they're doing. [CUT:] Knapp: They've got one -- [CUT:] Lazar: -- Oh, they've got a few. Yeah. [CUT:] Lazar is the first to admit that his story is tough to swallow. He submitted to polygraph exams, has opened up sensitive parts of his personal life, and fully expects to be ridiculed or perhaps punished for his revelations. [END CUT.] _______ [The hypnotherapy discussion of Segment 7 further below has been totally replaced by the following short summary included in the broadcast of 11/25/89. Note that reference to a mind-control technique by Lazar's U.S. government employers has been excised.] Knapp: Lazar wanted to recall further details from reports he says he read at S-4, so he went to Layne Keck, a licensed and experienced hypnotherapist. Keck makes no exaggerated claims about the powers of hypnosis, but he did help dredge up some specifics from the reports. He is confident about that, that Lazar is not making this up. Keck: His subconscious mind believes TOTALLY all of these things. -- Robert Klinn - via FidoNet node 1:104/422 UUCP: !scicom!paranet!User_Name INTERNET: Robert.Klinn@f428.n104.z1.FIDONET.ORG -------------------------------------------------------------------- From: paranet!f19.n19.z1.FIDONET.ORG!Ray.Griffin Subject: Re: Klass of Fyffe Date: 8 Dec 89 03:16:00 GMT Phil Klass told Susan Stockman of the "Weekly Post" that the objects sighted in Fyffe were celestial bodies. This was in a radio interview which she taped, but did not use. Perhaps it was because she saw the object shortly after that and it was only fifty feet away and 300 feet long. Other close friends have been that close as well. Now it all fits Phil just sees a bigger Venus than the rest of us. If you are interested, the Fyffe encounter never quit. The people just got quiet about it. Wouldn't you if something that size was watching you, and you didn't want to make it angry. I know personally that Phil Klass never followed up on Fyffe. Perhaps if he was forced to talk again with those people he wouldn't get off as easy as before. You might say that Fyffe is a trap for the Phil Klass's of the world. All they have to do is just step into it up to their sanity. -- Ray Griffin - via FidoNet node 1:104/422 UUCP: !scicom!paranet!User_Name INTERNET: Ray.Griffin@f19.n19.z1.FIDONET.ORG -------------------------------------------------------------------- From: paranet!f19.n19.z1.FIDONET.ORG!Ray.Griffin Subject: Re: The State of Events Date: 8 Dec 89 02:58:00 GMT Bryon, I'm not sure that they are getting thru or folks aren't interested in my ideas. I think that a test is in order. Therefore when folks notice some unusual computer problems through-out North America, it will be their own fault. As to the satanists, I don't like them at all. They scare little children so if one is reading this, he can tell all his friends that the "Devil made me do it". Actually, they scare very easily. So watch the papers around Ark' & Okla' for a big revival up that way. Here comes a revelation, It's sacrifice time and guess who is on the menu. -- Ray Griffin - via FidoNet node 1:104/422 UUCP: !scicom!paranet!User_Name INTERNET: Ray.Griffin@f19.n19.z1.FIDONET.ORG -------------------------------------------------------------------- From: paranet!Mike.Byers Subject: Tesla Date: 8 Dec 89 18:05:00 GMT For those intrested in N.

The definitions of colors are really totally subjective; we have no way of knowing just what another person is perceiving when we both look at the same colored object. We have a convention that a certain range of light wavelengths is referred to as "yellow" and this is built into people by childhood training, but a different eye structure could bring about a totally different result. Suppose we postulate aliens who can distinguish many subtle (to our eyes) graduations of color, and who care about these distinctions. Perhaps they use color as a method of communication akin to our speech, or their writing is based not upon letter shapes but upon color shadings, so that they have names for, and consider as distinctly different colors, shades which we tend to see only as slight variants under the overall label "yellow". It's like the old example of the Inuit (Eskimos) having hundreds of different words for what we lump together under the term "snow". It would be hard for an Inuit learing English to understand that all these things, which are distinctly different to him, would all be referred to simply as "snow". It's like if we were learning a language which called all four-legged animals "dog". An alien could then well be thoroughly confused by our continually referring to "yellow" when we are obviously (to him) meaning "ZZipp" AND "`xpflg" AND "@9ugjk" AND "hYi8)'" AND a hundred other distinct colors. Another reason could simply be eyes that respond to a different band of wavelengths, maybe blue-shifted with respect to what we call "visible light". Thus our "yellow" may be as black to an alien as infra-red is to us. There are vast differences between humans in color recognition and appreciation, even ignoring severe conditions like color blindness. Fabric and fashion designers see color gradations that other people cannot distinguish. There may even be genetic sex-linked differences, but it probably is more due to training and environment. There are old joks, though, about husbands and wives having totally different concepts when one says "green" to the other, for example. So with these widely- recognized variations in human color perception, think of how much more variations there could be when speaking of aliens and humans! So I would not use color and color apprehension or interpretation, or the understanding of the "color" words in English, as an indication of the intelligence of an alien. It could be an area in which we truly would have a "failure to communicate"!

Well, you beat me to it. I was going up to West Point this weekend with the object of getting McArthur's speech, too. He was my great-uncle. He was also something of a mystic, although he disguised it better than his other contemporary, Patton. I've put out some feelers for family lore on Gen. Doug's interest in UFOs. Lord knows, they turned up all over the European theatres -- surely they must have been "fooing" around the Pacific during WWII and Korea. I'll let you know.

Chris says he viewed the UFO from Papoose Lake, "right at the edge of where I wasn't supposed to be." Looking through a 50-power telescope from five to seven miles away, he saw a jet-black, flattened, diamond-shaped craft rise 5,000 feet into the air from the floor of the dry lake bed and go 15 miles in five seconds. It was 60-70 feet long and 30 feet thick. It made "no noise whatsoever" in an environment where he says he would have been able to hear a bird chirp. He watched it for 20 minutes. Because he doubted a human could survive the G-forces involved, Chris wondered whether the UFO was a holographic image or a robot-controlled device. A reader of many popular science magazines, Chris says he doesn't think humans could have manufactured a device with those performance characteristics. -- Robert Klinn - via FidoNet node 1:104/422 UUCP: !scicom!paranet!User_Name INTERNET: Robert.Klinn@paranet.FIDONET.ORG ********To have your comments in the next issue, send electronic mail to******** 'infopara' at the following address: UUCP {ncar,isis,boulder}!scicom!infopara DOMAIN infopara@scicom.alphacdc.com ADMIN Address infopara-request@scicom.alphacdc.com {ncar,isis,boulder}!scicom!infopara-request ******************The**End**of**Info-ParaNet**Newsletter************************
