FROM OTHER DIMENSIONS OF COMMUNICATION
When X-Symposium speaker E. Macer-Story walked the
streets of St. Catherines, Ontario having coffee, accessing email at the
Internet Cafe, exchanging currency, and picking up bargain sportswear on
St. Paul Street, your humble correspondent learned in an informal survey
of clerks, computer programmers and shopkeepers that no one in the small
Canadian town nicknamed by local residents "St. Kitts" was actually aware
that the X-Symposium was being held at the local Parkway Ramada Convention
Center.
The only store clerk aware of this event, which
had been extensively advertised on radio, local newspaper and Internet,
was an attractive blonde woman in her mid-thirties who worked in a convenience
store near the local General Motors plant.She revealed her knowledge of
the event on the evening after it had ended, confiding in this cruising
reporter that she had heard about the X-Symposium briefly on the radio
and had wanted to attend because she thought she had experienced esp. But,
for some reason, this lovely blonde lady had forgotten to check out the
event although the Ramada Convention Center is located only two city blocks
from the convenience store where she works.
OFF-OFF DATABUS LOCATIONS
Out of town speakers and exhibitors at this event
will most probably never forget the experience of being committed
to a weekend festival of information on paranormal and unexplained experiences
inside a small Ramada Inn ringed by nothing but small fast food restaurants
and drive-up convenience stores, located one block from a massive 24 hour
shift General Motors manufacturing plant and just an hour's drive from
scenic Niagara Falls. According to host Rob McConnell of the x-Zone radio
show, there were major accidents on the Toronto highway route to St. Catherines
on both Saturday and Sunday of this strangely-fated weekend.
Yet the convenience store employee who had intended
to attend the conference but for unexplained reasons had forgotten this
event had also not heard of any major highway accidents on those particular
days. American and Swiss speakers at the Canadian Symposium had been
told by local participants that in investigating any accident the Canadian
government stops all traffic in the area in order to immediately ascertain
the circumstances.So, incredibly, everyone including Swiss "flying saucer"
luminary Erich Von Daniken, passively
accepted the "traffic blockage"explanation and gave their talks to audiences
of three to ten persons who in general were friends and/or associates of
the local Canadian or Western New York State participants. Only in retrospect
does this entire event-muffling situation seem odd.
Odder still is the fact that when your present correspondent
attempted to save the revised first draft of this article on June 14, 1999,
five days after the HEX-BITION file had been created, the computer copy/paste
display gave August 24, 1996 as the date of creation of the original file.
When I checked that date in my journals I found an odd absent minded-ness
of dating which had caused me to put the entire journaled year of1996--beginning
at February 2 (Candlemas)--in a separate journal ending at Candlemas 1997.
At first it looked as if 1996 was missing from my journals because the
entries in one journal jump from February 1996 to February 1997. I later
located the missing 1996 notebook.
HEXED IT, DIDN'T YA?
But before I did locate the separately-filed
"Candlemas to Candlemas" hard copy journal for 1996, the inexplicable "hex-ibition"
computer file date-stamp anomaly had attracted my attention to August 24,
1997 in the available stack of journals. On that date, I had been followed
along Sixth Avenue in Manhattan by a chubby, middle-aged New Yorker of
mixed race dressed in gray bermuda shorts, a subtly-figured gray and black
shirt open at the neck and low cut running shoes with socks. This individual,
a balding man with dark, curly hair, was making an issue of imitating
my slight, splay-footed limp. At a certain point, he had then walked in
front of me, still pretending to limp, and had loitered reading the menu
in the window of a coffee shop, possibly to glimpse my reaction in the
glass.
I had thought then of the anecdotes which describe
mental magician Aliester Crowley walking behind a person while affecting
an exaggerated limp to see if this thought-projected action made the object
of his attentions trip or stagger in unconscious response.
Possibly there had been a similar "hex" or deliberate
"magickal working" with the intent of holding the X-Symposium in check.
Though the participants were unaware of the source of the bolexing vibrations,
the event itself was definitely not going forward normally. But before
we return to the X-Symposium itself, the reader might be interested in
knowing the actual journal entry for August 24, 1996, the date anomalously
displayed when copying the "hex-ibition" computer file into the hard drive
on the desk above the journal file drawer. .
On this date, I had noted in my journal that photos
of a talismanic object found in the yard in Woodstock had come out normally
whereas "two snapshots of a hay wagon parked at Cumberland Farms convenience
store on Sunday July 7 (1996) at mid-afternoon had an odd, clear red area
of color at the edge of the frame. Earlier on that same day I had photographed
"angel sigil" graffiti on several public buildings in Woodstock...It is
interesting that the "red blotch" at the border of the color film resembles
the "dark shadow" which sometimes comes out on black and white photos influenced
by spirits and/or PK." This photo was later presented at the New Science
Forum in Denver, Colorado as part of a talk entitled The Embarrassment
of Intelligences , demonstrating one of several possible "astral critter"
manifestations which are embarrassing because they are indeterminate and
occur in emotionally and/or interpersonally undefined situations. Was it
the Fourth of July hay wagon itself or the earlier photos of "angel sigils"
which boosted the photo anomaly?
Possibly the "hex" on the X-Symposium proceedings
which caused such a slow audience response was not the work of a jealous
or controlling human being but actually had to do with the interdimensional
and/or extra-terrestrial intelligences which were being discussed by several
of the featured speakers who had written books on the subject of contact
by "flying saucers" and/or advanced intelligence of the "Atlantean" sort
manifesting as the ancient "vimanas" mentioned in ancient Sanskrit texts
now preserved in the libraries of Arabic historians.
Aha! Arabic historians! When Arab philosophers,
particularly Sufi poets, hit a riff in the waters of life which they truly
cannot explain and which is embarrassing to all human participants,they
wisely may exclaim:"It's the djinn!" For these interdimensional Intelligences
are known, like Celtic fairies and Nordic trolls, to enjoy giving human
lunkheads a very hard time indeed. Certainly, had this article been "next
day" journal coverage, your interdimensional correspondent with the temporarily
vanishing notebook for the year of 1996 would never have made the feature
deadline. But there were local Canadian news reporters at this event as
well who attempted to put the strangely-fated X-Symposium into the local
news. These features, when they reached publication, were conservatively
limited in scope.
ANOMALOUS EVENTS & PUBLIC OPINION
Though there were participants in the X-Symposium
ranging from an inventor of extended mileage carburetors through an author
with library documentation of alleged U.S./Canadian secret UFO research
files, no local publicity other than host Rob McConnell's X-Zone
radio show itself specifically promoted or interviewed any participants
except a self-described "lone witch" from nearby Niagara-On-The-Lake
, the imported Swiss expert on "flying saucers in antiquity" and
the bashful, young paragnost "Mattie" from Toronto who had often been featured
on local radio shows. Under these circumstances, it is easy to understand
that no large audience may have attended simply because they were not motivated
by the advance publicity to expect any novelty in the area of unexplained
events or circulation of new and perhaps supernatural ideas. Forget the
"traffic blockage" explanation for the unusual lack of attendance at the
X-Symposium.. If people really want to get to an event and there is an
accident on the throughway, they will find another way around the barricades.
In general, the public view of witches and flying
saucers--unless this is presented as children's or adult adventure fiction--may
not be exactly what the intensely interested and inner-directed presenters
of this material would like it to be in the modern day. Instead of "new
stuff" the startled experts in the supernatural may find that--like the
legendary Lamp of Aladdin--the new lamp of "psi research" they so happily
exchanged for the old lamp of "sorcery investigation" gives out really
strange results when it is even slightly rubbed by people not familiar
with the magickal results sometimes obtained in yard sales.
Your humble correspondent recently had a bizarre
experience in Oklahoma City during which a neighbor of her elderly parents--having
read an old 1991 "Advanced Sciences" hardback publication of her book Dr.
Fu Man Chu Meets the Lonesome Cowboy: Sorcery and the Ufo Experience
into the cover binding pages of which the publisher had inserted ads for
witchcraft books--apparently dwelt on these ads and not the text and became
convinced that I was a "dangerous witch from afar" (That is to say: New
York City.).This individual then attempted to instigate legal proceedings
against the author of this present text under various pretexts having
to do with the management of her elderly parents' estate and pension.
Persons familiar with the infamous Salem, Massachusetts
"witch trials" of the seventeenth century will recall that the "crying
out" of various adolescent girls against certain "witches" can (before
it became mass hysteria) also be traced to the real estate holdings of
those families whose property was seized by the authorities.
Fortunately, the ill-advised and aggressive 1999
"witch crying out" in Oklahoma City was not successful in essence.But the
situation itself was a graphic reminder to the author of this present text
that there remains a serious lack of awareness in the general public
about the wide range of nuances and possibilities involved in the study
of the supernatural and paranormal activity.
It is indeed tricky. Sometimes the "real" witch
is the "cartoon witch" and sometimes the actual practitioner of the "dark
and diabolic arts" is the inquisitor or investigator who is playing the
inherently artificial role of "god's appointed attorney"in order to control
events.
Yet, while modern people should not rush to the
gallows with some hapless individual simply because he or she has a bright
and witchy gaze and walked toward the car just as it fell apart after being
stood up by the driver of the car for a previous appointment, some thought
must still be given to the fact that the disintegration of the vehicle
may be functionally related to the mental state of both whoever broke the
previous appointment and the nominal "warlock" or "witch" who appears to
be the "hex" culprit. Perhaps also, as in the example of the disintegrating
car, the delinquent friend broke the appointment because he or she was
telepathically-motivated by a spirit of "djinn", as previously suggested
in this article.
As perhaps the unusually muted or "damped" media
activity surrounding the X-Symposium has an origin beyond the personalities
and/or obvious psi/pk gifts of certain participants, such as licensed Nevada
healer Michael Stellitano. The actual healing abilities triggered by Stellitano
will be discussed later in this article. But first, before a continued
discussion of the local publicity on this event,it is relevant to mention
an odd poltergeist event connected with your present correspondent's first
web-announced appearance on the X-Zone talk show, an appearance which had
been postponed three times.
OMENS OF DANGER
During the evening of October 25, 1998, about two
hours before I was scheduled to talk on the show by telephone hook-up,
there were three sudden appearances or "apports" of large, black insects
resembling thin beetles in the loft space of my Woodstock house as I was
working on the first issue of the YANKEE ORACLE GAZETTE and
going over certain items of information which might be mentioned on the
talk show.
I have never--by the way--seen such insects in the
loft before or since that time. Perceiving that the apport of the beetles
was possibly related to the talk show scheduled later that evening, I did
a candle concentration to protect myself during this radio event. The flame
of the candle elongated at that time, showing spirit presence and energy
influx into the flame.
Later, my appearance on the show was canceled for
that evening and again postponed to a later date. When recalling events
of the week previous to this incident, and going over my journal, I had
trouble at first getting the days in right sequence and was aware of a
strong, numinous altering of my perception during the time I was checking
and attempting to rationally understand not only the "beetle apport" incident
but a crank call and other events--which will be described later in this
article--which had the effect of reminding me of the active presence of
interdimensional intelligences as well as the presence of witches and sorcerers
in the situation. But before entering other dimensions of premonition,
back to the local publicity.
A "lone witch" participating in the X-Symposium
weekend was mentioned by local journalist Joanne McDonald in her article
on the event for the Hamilton, Ontario Spectator newspaper. "Lady Ashley"
was described as being somewhat of a free spirit who operates alone and
subscribes to no fixed system of ritual observance, be it pagan,
Hebrew or Christian. Featuring this woman as a curiosity, Ms. McDonald
did not delve more deeply into her situation, commenting only: "She has
been a witch for 30 years but doesn't practice the dark or black arts of
the occult. A White Wicca, or wise woman, she subscribes to the adage:
'So unto others as you would have them do unto you.'"
However, your present correspondent learned
from Lady Ashley, the lone witch in question, that she had while living
in nearby Toronto called the police to arrest a warlock there because he
had been appearing too frequently and aggressively in her dreams. An occult
practitioner who would call the police to arrest or control the astral
or dream body is not completely in charge of the interdimensional situation.
There may be "guardian intelligences" who can restrain
a renegade sorcerer who projects unwelcome attentions into dreams. But
these are certainly not the Canadian Mounted Police in uniform. There is
real potential for abuse and confusion if someone calls "police emergency"
every time a dream robbery is committed. While it is quite possible to
believe that a "lone witch" might actually be threatened by a group with
strongly-held occult beliefs which are different from hers, it is unwise
to assume that aggressors with telepathic and psychokinetic abilities can
be effectively blocked by a physical police officer when their activities
have been in the area of telekinesis and mind-splitting at a distance.
In such situations, it is best for the victim to pray or meditate for help
from angel guardians and kind spirits of the departed.
It may then be found that these disembodied "Intelligences"
act telepathically to inspire material police assistance when that assistance
is actually necessary. For David Shoemaker, slated to be a speaker at the
X-Symposium in St. Catherines, Ontario, was detained at the U.S./Canada
border on charges of armed robbery in Nevada. Had Mr. Shoemaker not been
detained by the authorities, your present correspondent would not have
done much research into his background other than to note from the program
that: "David Shoemaker claims to have received debris from a crashed UFO
and he believes that this UFO was the mothership for UFOs that crashed
in the area of Roswell, New Mexico in July 1947.... David is a collector
of rocks, minerals, meteorites and is a full-fledged wizard." So many self-described
"wizards" have flocked to the Roswell UFO site that this would not have
been a credit of note had Mr. Shoemaker not been arrested at the border.
Of course, the announcement of this detention was
made by host Rob McConnell, the same person who also informed the assembled
exhibitors that there was low attendance at the X-Symposium due to a massive
traffic tie-up near Toronto on Saturday and Sunday of that weekend in May,
a traffic "emergency" which was not noted as unusual by other local residents
then clerking in stores and restaurants near the Parkway Ramada Convention
Center in "St.Kitts", Ontario.
DAD'S FLYING SAUCER
In an article on the CSETI website entitled Gemologist
Declares He Has UFO Debris Specimens, And They're Available To The Public
Richard Boylan, PH.D writes of David Shoemaker: "...this New Mexico
gemologist
When your present correspondent tried this telephone
number in mid-June 1999, Mr. David Shoemaker was unavailable for comment.
His voice mail message tape said: "Having a little phone trouble try 505-542-3882."
This number, however, simply led back to the same message tape, referring
the caller to itself once again. There is at least one truth Shoemaker
has told: he is having phone trouble.
Noticing from the banner caption on the previously-cited
CSETI article that David Shoemaker had received this alleged UFO material
from
a man living near St. Joseph, Missouri, E. Macer-Story remembered
investigations narrated in her recent book DARK FRONTIER. In the
course of investigating ufo and seance activity in Missouri in the early
1990's, she ran into a number of bemused and bemusing individuals who evidently
HAD contacted other dimensional realities but were manifesting this knowledge
in ways which--like vending UFO debris for $100 an ounce--called their
mundane veracity into serious question. "Spirit helpers", as invoked by
such individuals, may be real enough as a folk poltergeist event and/or
ufo flash but do not always tell the truth or take vows of material poverty.
In fact, since the voice on the message tape did
not identify itself by name, the actual identity of whoever was manifesting
as gemologist "David Shoemaker" in the year of 1999 is called into serious
question by the untimely death of NASA Planetary Scientist Dr. Eugene Shoemaker
in July of 1997.
Dr. Eugene Shoemaker was killed in a two-car accident
near Alice Springs, Australia on the afternoon of July 18, 1997. According
to an obituary in "exoScience UFO" written by David Watanabe in 1997:
"A geologist by training, Shoemaker
is best known for discovering, with his wife Carolyn and colleague David
Levy, a comet near Jupiter. Comet Shoemaker-Levy 9 was broken up
by tidal forces from Jupiter, and its fragments collided with the planet
in July 1994. Together, the Shoemakers were the leading discoverers of
comets this century.
"Gene was one of the most renowned planetary scientists in the
world, and a valued member of the NASA family since the earliest days of
lunar exploration," said NASA Administrator Daniel S. Goldin. "His work
on the history of meteor impacts and the role that they play in the evolution
of the Solar System is a fundamental milestone in the history of space
science.
"Gene was an extremely articulate man who could explain the wonders
of the planets in simple language that anyone could understand and get
excited about," Goldin added. "Although he never realized his dream
of doing field geology on the surface of the Moon, all future exploration
of that rocky world owes a debt to his pioneering spirit. Our warmest
thoughts are with his dear wife Carolyn as she recovers from her injuries."
Shoemaker's signature work was his research
on the nature and origin of the Barringer Meteor Crater near Winslow, AZ,
which helped provide a foundation for cratering research on the Moon and
planets. This work led to the establishment of a lunar chronology, allowing
the dating of geological features of its surface.
Shoemaker took part in the Ranger lunar robotic
missions, was principal investigator for the television experiment on the
Surveyor lunar landers (1963-1968), and led the geology field investigations
team for the first Apollo lunar landings (1965- 1970). In 1961, he organized
the Branch of Astrogeology of the U.S. Geological Survey in Flagstaff,
AZ, and acted as its director from 1961 to 1966. On his retirement from
the U.S.G.S. in 1993, Shoemaker became a staff member at Lowell Observatory
in Flagstaff.
An early supporter of the idea that an asteroid
or comet impact had doomed much of Earth's life (including the dinosaurs)
65 million years ago, Shoemaker chaired key NASA working groups on how
best to survey such near-Earth objects in 1981 and 1994. Most recently,
he was active in the Clementine mission that imaged the Moon, and was science
team leader on the planned Clementine 2 mission.
Shoemaker won numerous awards during his career,
and in 1980 became a member of the National Academy of Sciences.
The alert reader will have noticed that there is
a correspondence of subject matter between the two Dr. Shoemakers--David
and Eugene--which, if it is not some bizarre synchonicity, probably indicates
that the"David Shoemaker" of 1999 had picked up the "outer space geology"
theme from the legitimate NASA scientist who dreamed of doing field geology
on the moon and then had transmogrified this "outer space geology"
theme into the alleged discovery of exotic UFO-related rock and crystal
fragments originally from Roswell, N.M. under the earth near St. Joseph,
Missouri.
The serious problem with this "Missouri tall tale"
interpretation is the alleged endorsements of the David Shoemaker fragments
by the Colorado School of Mines and the University of New Mexico Institute
of Meteorites. What are we to make of this situation? If this IS disinformation,
it is a very serious and compromising situation indeed, involving the use
of equipment at two major technical colleges. But if this is NOT disinformation,
and simply a bizarre synchronicity of names, why was David Shoemaker allegedly
stopped at the U.S./Canadian border on suspicion of bank robbery?
Here the inevitable question arises once again:
Did "David Shoemaker" actually rob a bank in Nevada?This, of course, is
a question which cannot be answered within the scope of this present article,
which concerns unusual "hex"activity at the X-Symposium in St. Catherines,
Ontario. Your present correspondent simply presents an interdimensional
"gazette" of issues and themes literally and/or talismanically attached
to the communications event which had been mutually created on May 13-16,
1999 in the town of "St. Kitts", Ontario by the local journalists, exhibitors,
producers and participants.
SHAMANS IMPERSONATING SHAMANS
One participant in this Canadian conference, a speaker
named Marshall Barnes who presented himself an an expert on The Philadelphia
Experiment, had some interesting items to state offhand about the Internet
personality" Blue Resonant Human". Not only was ithis individual--who relays
information on the occult and related topics around the web--supposed to
be the unacknowledged son of a well-known psychical researcher but was
now supposed to be "off the web" for mysterious reasons. Also, a few far
fetched assertions were made by Mr. Barnes about psychotronics researcher
and former Navy employee Eldon
Byrd.
As if drawn by indignant yet unconscious affinity,
both Byrd and Blue spontaneously connected with E. Macer-Story in the form
of email and posted "Macer-Story" text quotation less than one month after
these statements had been made by Barnes, who also claims to be a counterculture
investigative shaman with "powers", including (yes: as actually stated
in offhand conversation) the alleged mental power to blank out your present
correspondent E. Macer-Story who for a moment in the conversation
could not remember the name of a residential street in Texas she had read
in a MUFON article six years ago. Actually,
if the reader wants to "get into" martial arts strategy and implicit protections,
it is fortunate that your present correspondent could not remember this
street. For there was then no way Mr. Barnes could learn the street address
offhand.
By spontaneous response to investigative query,
Eldon Byrd has asserted that he has never heard of Marshall Barnes and
that, as far as he is aware, Blue Resonant Human is not the bastard son
of psychical researcher Dr. Hal Putoff. In turn, Blue Resonant Human--unaware
of the controversy about his parentage--had posted a quote from Macer-Story's
DARK
FRONTIER about possible counter-counterculture ESPionage involving
the action of both human agents and interdimensional intelligences
which was forwarded to your present correspondent by "Ions & Light"
entrepreneur Jim Karnstedt along with a debate between physicist Jack Sarfatti
and materialist Ralph Clark about the role of Luciferian teleology in small
particle physics.
Macer-Story's answer to aspects of that teleological
debate so suddenly presented in queue sparked a heated disconnection between
Sarfatti and Clark, who was dismissed from the debate by physicist
Sarfatti for attempting to bugger without exact reference both the cosmology
of Macer-Story and of British metaphysical poet John Donne as being somehow
without material and biological significance.Whatever else this strange
interchange may mean to the history of science, one thing has been established:
Blue Resonant Human is not absent from the web as stated by Marshall Barnes.
Also, among the recent web contributions of BRH is actually a QUOTE from
your present correspondent, the same person who was told by Barnes that
BRH was no longer functioning on the Internet. One does not have to be
an expert in physics to understand this nexus of events and references.
Clearly, though direct and intentional effort had
been made to divert Macer-Story from both psychotronics reseacher Eldon
Byrd and Internet personality Blue Resonant Human, the interconnective
"Nexus" itself was not permitting that action and overrode the subterfuge.
Or perhaps this gossip about fellow researchers
and ceremonial magicians was just a deliberate probe in conversation, clever
investigative "reverse speech" by Marshall Barnes, who claims to be a shaman
without the need for the archaic trappings of a shaman. Might Mr. Barnes
have been trying to see if E. Macer-Story would correct his assertions,
as she did in conversation; thus establishing that she did know of
these people by direct experience and was not repeating the latest , revised
"conspiracy" script downloaded online?
Do not kid yourself, dear reader. Of the participants
in the X-Symposium, Marshall Barnes was the only individual who, ascertaining
that Macer-Story left the hotel building to visit the Internet Cafe on
St. Paul Street, actually followed her there, missing an actual intersection
on the cafe premises by only a few minutes of time. However, how does Macer-Story
know this? Because Barnes, after finding out she was leaving the hotel
to get email and investigate local landmarks, told her he was going
to meet her at the cafe in order to access his email. He was late. She
did not wait. Later he told her he had glimpsed her from a car as she was
walking back toward Ontario Street on St, Paul Street. Do we need counseling
by Datamate? This is not likely.
The attempted meeting which became a non-meeting
at the Internet Cafe is a matter of investigative strategy. If Macer-Story
had complied with the necessity to wait, a new level of relationship
might have been established and Barnes might then have become aware that
she was asking shopkeepers and waitresses whether they had heard of the
X-Symposium. Barnes is a "star" at that Symposium. But beyond that circle
no one but several NYC cable television talk show hosts in the "ufo" or
investigative fields seem to have heard of him at all. Marshall Barnes
himself claims to be a skilled psychical investigator with the power to
disappear from the sight of authorities and camouflage himself.
As of this writing, Mr. Barnes HAS disappeared from
established search engines on the web. The reason your present correspondent
could find any trace of his activities is that she had downloaded a PX
Site chat interview with Barnes just after returning from the X-Symposium
on May 17, 1999.What's in the interview? Does Marshall Barnes, who
claims suppression by the "establishment" media of his simple but effective
demonstrations of virtual image and mirage possibilities as related to
"invisibility" experiments by the military, actually have reason to be
elusive? Let's be fair. Unlike the pre-censored network news media, let's
not delete Mr. Barnes simply because his opinions conform neither to the
pre-scripted "Montsuk PX Time Travel" line nor to the pre-scripted "PSICOP"
line of thinking. Here are excerpts from Marshall Barnes talking in a "PX"
Website chat session in March of 1999:
QUESTION: Is there any hard evidence for Al Bielek's claims
that up to 4 alien races are in contact with the U.S. Government in connection
to PX and the Montauk Project?
BARNES: There is no hard evidence for most of what Bielek talks
about, let alone any aliens of any kind.
QUESTION: Have you tried to recreate parts of the PX? (Ed: Alleged
invisibility and timewarp technology secretly developed by U.S. military.)
BARNES: I have proved experimentally the basis for what Dr. Rinehart
said and that's in my video and in the View Zone article. It was also what
The Unexplained didn't want anyone to see or know about.
(EMS NOTE: Mr. Barnes demonstration of mirage cloaking technique
was abruptly deleted before broadcast from the Towers Productions' episode
broadcast on the CBS television show THE UNEXPLAINED in November
1996. Photos of several technically-induced mirages by Marshall Barnes
are available from Magick Mirror Communications as printed from
a web ViewZone article on Barnes' communication dilemmas written by Joe
Turner. There was difficulty in attaining a download print. E. Macer-Story
spoke sharply to the Nexus when bolexed oddly on the download... to this
effect. "If you guys can hear me, listen up: if I have difficulty printing
this document I will only publish that difficulty. "Strangely, after that
statement into the Thin Air, the malfunctioning computer--purged electronically
of the flawed download--printed perfectly on the second try. But the first
try was weird enough. So the photos are available in hard copy only. See
the section FIRST TRY following these excerpts from the Barnes interview.)
BARNES: The variation I'm referring to is a EMF around the craft
that ionizes the air so that it refracts light in such a way that it looks
invisible.
QUESTION: Was the PX responsible for distorting time or was that
all a hoax?
BARNES: There is no evidence currently available that shows that
the PX was responsible for distorting time or that there were any aliens
involved. NONE.
QUESTION: So what do you really think about the PX technology
idea put forward by Al Bielek, William Moore and the Montauk people?
BARNES: I'd say that Bielek was involved in Montauk and that
there was some truth to what happened there.He was brainwashed to link
all the PX stuff with the Montauk stuff with him doing the time travel
thing. It was a screen memory. Now I can't prove that; but he can't prove
his story either. I also can't prove that he's deliberately lying.
QUESTION: What about invisibility in the Philadelphia Experiment?
The Office of Naval Research says that degaussing was confused with optical
invisibility because degaussing makes the ship invisible to magnetic mines.
BARNES: Not even in the first stages of the experiment. Rinehart
says something about there being talk of using a magnetic field to repel
incoming projectiles but that never went anywhere.I've got people on audio
tape and in documents and letters making statements that are lies, fraud
and various forms of obfuscation. People don't do that unless there is
REALLY something to hide.
QUESTION: Do you believe some crew members in the Philadelphis
Experiment were fused to the Eldridge?
BARNES: Now let's look at that. Who's going to think up a story
like that? It's too fantastic .But in Physics Volume 2 by Richard Wolfson
and Jay Pasachoff it talks about a similar theoretical situation on page
510, chapter 20, under "electrical charge". That's a college physics textbook.
The crew members could have become part of the ship if the EMF interfered
with the electrical forces that hold the atoms of their bodies together.
If it only lasted a split second, they would have started to fall into
the deck, but then solidified again.
QUESTION: What about the reports that the Eddridge was seen in
Virginia during the experiment?
BARNES: The reports about the teleportation to Virginia are interesting
but not verifiable. Now, if the EMF had become so dense that it became
like a giant electron, it could have theoretically done something called
"quantum tunneling". Quantum tunneling is performed by electrons and other
particles all the time. In my investigation of the Office of Naval Research
in 1992 I was told that NASA was working on a similar project secretly.
The key is what is called "macroscopic" quantum tunneling. If that's what
was unintentionally discovered during the PX, then that would be one good
reason to keep it secret.
QUESTION: What about these "mirage for camouflage" photos you
tried to present on THE UNEXPLAINED in 1996?
BARNES: OK: it's not camouflage.It does not cover or change the
shape of the object. The photos don't show light refracted "around" the
object. The refraction causes the light from above and on the sides to
reflect in front of the object. It has to involve an EMF strong enough
to create the right conditions in the air for refraction to occur. "UFO"s
may have a sheath of electrical plasma surrounding the craft which creates
somewhat the same optical and electromagnetic effect.
QUESTION: Has the USA worked with other nations on PX technology?
BARNES: The USA wants to keep this stuff secret from other nations
but there are currently radar sheath planes that I believe we share with
the UK.
QUESTION: Where can readers purchase your books and videos?
BARNES: My stuff is in temporary limbo while we change business
structures.
QUESTION: What about a change in gravitational structure?
BARNES: Absolutely no need for gravitational effects at all!
When people throw that kind of stuff around, the skeptics howl with laughter
because they know that's scientifically impossible! When they hear me start
talking about Rinehart and refraction, the skeptics get scared because
they know I'm well within the range of the probable.
FIRST TRY
So, here your present correspondent returns briefly
to the very unusual glitch which occurred when printing the article The
Philadelphia Experiment: What They Didn't Want You To Know by Joe Turner
from the ViewZone
website. Things were going along normally page by page on a link with a
color printer when suddenly the entire process locked after spewing forth
an anomalous page with a dark rectangle at the top, separated by one line
from the "caption"sentence, reading in small print: "Could an intense electro-magnetic
field cause refraction of light ie cause optical invisibility?"
For about a half hour after this event, the printer
could not be gotten to run normally. The computer diagnostics were registering
an unexecuted software program which I took to be the downloaded print
specifics. Nothing would print. The machine was registering as broken and
telling the Operator to call the 800 emergency "Fix-it" number. Finally,
it was necessary to cut the power to the entire setup, pray, and demand
of the "Nexus" of events that this printer function. When the power was
restored, the invading program had been wiped out and your present correspondent
was able to access ViewZone and print normally.
Given the fact that the botched page was the reproduction
of an evidential set of questions to Marshall Barnes on the Tower Productions
letterhead, his alleged proof that he was set up to be discredited after
having been led on to believe he would get serious coverage on the
September 1996 episode of The Unexplained TV show, two items are
of interest to the anomalies and psychical researcher: First, the selection
by the computer of the single question about refraction out of a displayed
list of twenty available questions and secondly, the actual date of this
show in the Fall of 1996. For it is the issue of refraction by strong EMF
fields which is Marshall Barnes' strongest "scientific" argument and, as
the reader may recall from the opening section of this article, the
computer file named hex-ibition would at first not store with a normal
date but at first kept returning to the date of August 24, 1996. This computer
file anomaly occurred before the printing out of the "Philadelphia Experiment"
article from ViewZone.
However, the date stamp at the top of the Tower
Productions question list says Mar.18, 1990, a date which would place the
questions six years ahead of the final broadcast. After the recent experience
with the HEX-IBITION computer file time stamp, Macer-Story is not likely
to take any automatic time stamp as an absolute indication of the "real"
date of issue. But, additionally, the date at the top of the questions
would not have been examined with a magnifying glass had the computer not
glitched at that page. Questions abound here. Might someone have entered
the Turner posting and altered the date, causing a "patch" in the graphics?
Or is the "patch" paranormal, part of the "invisibility" and "time anomaly"
scenario of those who--less conservative than Mr. Barnes--claim a timespace
manipulation project they call "PX" is being concealed by the U.S. military.
SECOND LOOK
But it is no secret that the Army Drug and Convenience
Stores worldwide are also yclept "PX".Why call a secret project "PX" unless
the intent is to cloak a black world reality by making the overt discussion
of this technology seem simple-minded, as if the town idiot had attempted
to invent the word for "battery" by looking at the logo on a BandAid box.
Marshall Barnes is far from being the town idiot.
A careful consideration of his statements boils down to the fact that he
is steadfastly insisting that "aliens" have not been fooling around with
refraction cloaking but that persons employed by the military have both
been experimenting with advanced technology and using "brainwashing" techniques
to conceal that technology.In other words: Mr. Barnes apparently believes
that the Montauk Scenario with which we have been gifted during these last
ten years by Peter Moon, Al Bielek, Preston Nichols and many others is
a deliberate hypnotically-orchestrated brainwash hoax which conceals the
"real" project back of the science fiction "PX" technology. Yet Marshall
Barnes at the X-Symposium was passing around and vending literature on
a mythical scientist named "Dr. Rinehart" who is said in the 'Montauk"
literature to have developed the "PX' technology.
Is Mr. Barnes then a version of the "real" hyper-intelligent
"Dr. Rinehart", concocting his own version of a rogue detective scenario
which serves to introduce questions into the already jumbled "Montauk-alien
PX" timewarp scenario? This "rogue operative" hypothesis is quite interesting
to this particular reporter. For once before in her investigations of anomalous
claims E. Macer-Story had come up against a "reality/unreality" conundrum
similar to the collision of the very real mental abilities and scientific
assertions of countercultue shaman Marshall Barnes with the obviously very
questionable "outer space--brainwash" scenario of the Montauk Project "PX",
which he appears to be both crediting and dis-crediting at the same time.
In the past, this "reality/unreality" conundrum
also concerned UFOs on Long Island but had to do with the practice of ceremonial
magick and "out of body" travel by a group of people connected with Arnold
Persov, a man who died of an illness during which he was supposedly completely
unable to move. While in this condition, Persov's invisible self was heard
to be walking outside of his body in the hallway of his Queens home . At
that time a "group of people" unknown to his wife came to his house to
collect his books. A few books and notes were left behind by this group
and these papers were passed to your present correspondent about eighteen
years ago by his niece Starla Persov, a poet employed at that time as a
social worker in the Bronx.
It is no accident that when referencing the "Omens
of Danger" section of the Macer-Story journal cited earlier in this article
which describes the apport of beetles just before an X-Zone radio show,
your present correspondent noticed recent mention of this "Do you have
a physical illness or have you been out of your body with the Secret Society?"
ufo/witchcraft conundrum as noted on several dates just previous to the
"radio show apport" incident.
Here, for an interval, your present correspondent
must cite a sequence of naturally-occurring "signal" incidents which preceded
these sudden thoughts of Ms. Persov and her OOB-tripping Uncle Arnold.
For it does seem that the interdimensional "Nexus" was trying to run a
warning flag up the line, albeit in ways which were symbolically quite
cryptic.
SIGNALS FROM THE UN-NAMED & UNKNOWN
Early on Thursday October 22, 1998, at about one
in the morning, your present correspondent saw two "ufo lights" in the
Western sky over the Town of Woodstock which were white with a small red
light at the side. Both lights shimmered and moved in a slight, erratic
zig-zag pattern. There was a feeling of well-being after this experience
and I went back to sleep.
At 2:30 a.m. I woke, noticing the outside sensor
light was on in the yard back of my bedroom. After a few minutes, a possum
or large rat-like animal the size of a large cat with a long, rigid tail
ran into the area of the light and then off to the side of the house out
of my view. I thought of "chupacabra" tales but then realized that the
animal, whatever it was, had behaved oddly to run into the area of the
sensor light and wondered if the small beast was "trained" to display itself.
At noon, after an attack of self-blame I recognized
as being weird and which concerned levi slacks shrunk in a hot drier
with the laundry, I located a clean pair of unshrunk levis from last year
which fit easily. As I slipped into the blue jeans, I came back to my normal
senses. I had entered a strange mental zone wherein I mistakenly blamed
myself for being grossly "fat" because the shrunk pants were too small.
This sort of illusion is common in the situation of "hexing" or hypnotic
induction of damaging ideas by telepathic focus.
After getting dressed and inspecting the back yard,
I found a large, forked and specially treated "sorcery stick" leaning against
a small tree in the back yard, exactly in the place where the "possum"
had emerged into the area of grass which had been illuminated by the sensor
light at two in the morning the night before. A person or animal
coming down the back path in front of this tree would have triggered the
sensor light whereas the animal I had seen from the back window came from
an area outside the patch of light directed by the sensor trigger beam
and walked directly into the light as I watched.
During a short nap at eight in the evening, I kept
having thoughts of Arnold Persov and his neice Starla Persov. I had the
sense that Arnold's spirit might still be earthbound, as well as a strong
and uneasy sense of diabolic intelligence as connected with the present,
mentally-intrusive circumstances.
After my nap, I pursued trying to reach the contact
number on a UFO conference flier I had been sent from New Jersey, finally
reaching (to my surprise) UFO entrepreneur Jim
Moseley. About ten years ago, Moseley had moved from New Jersey to
Florida. As I inquired about the UFO conference, I had a strong feeling
of the "diabolic" and recalled that I had met Starla Persov at a party
thrown
by Moseley in Fort Lee, New Jersey.
At four in the morning of the following day, a "crank"
call made by two male voices was recorded on the Magick Mirror Space answering
machine, coming into the older of the two studio/office numbers, the same
800 number I had been using at the time I lived in Hoboken, New Jersey.
I picked this call up by remote from my home in Woodstock. When I reached
my city stayover apartment later in the day after checking the Magick Mirror
office space, I found that the phone in the apartment had been disconnected
for no reason. I had to call Bell-Atlantic and have the service restored.
Two days later, on October 25, 1998, the day of
the X-Zone postponement and beetle apport as previously described, I found
an unusual stone, possibly talismanic, outside the glass-enclosed back
porch in Woodstock. This was a rounded "dolmen"-like stone with a shape
like a tiny hill rather than a spear or arrowhead shaped rock. It had a
flat base and stood upright easily. I recalled that a witch connected with
the Magickal Childe store had once stated that her group had a "god" which
was a phallic, dolmen-shaped piece of granite. At the time I had
spoken to this woman in 1978, I paid very little attention to the piece
of rock she was showing me. I found the entire idea of worshipping a small,
vertical piece of rock as a "sacred phallus" mildly embarrassing. Thus,
Macer-Story tended to disregard this practice since the "witch" in question
was, in other respects, obviously a long-haired and pleasingly plump young
housewife from Brooklyn who liked to hang out in the Manhattan occult store,
where she occasionally clerked at the herb and candle counter.
I did save the rock I had found on October 25, 1998.
Later in the day, I also had thoughts of the deceased Archaeus Journal
editor Gail Duke and her husband Dennis
Stillings, a man whom I know to be interested in sophisticated
mental magick and sorcery. I do not often think of these people, who once
documented certain of my psi predictions in their Minneapolis-based publication.
So, the incident with the "beetle apport"
as described earlier in this article in context of a possible "hex" on
the X-Zone Show and X-Symposium was actually prefigured by a number of
events and intuitions which should have placed me on the edge of my seat,
looking for trouble. Instead, at the time this astral avalanche of apports
and visions occurred I simply assimilated the communications symbolically
and noted the date of these occurrences in my journal. I had nowhere special
to "hang" all this stuff because there was actually no overt "focus" for
the communications rebus which was being presented to my conscious mind
by the "Nexus" of unconscious and multi-dimensional awareness.
