- A "N" machine, or "Free-Energy" machine produces more energy/work then is
- input to it. Obviously, any renowned Physicist would state this impossible
- and label any such machine a "Perpetual Motion" mock-up.

- I the recent issue of Ad Astra [Space exploration mag] there is an article
- describing how two Canadian scientists working with the Museum of nature in
- Ottowa traced the evolution of a particular species of dinosaur. Basically,
- they theorise that if the dinosaurs had not gone extinct, that one in
- particular, "Stenonychosaurus Inequalis was evolving in a direction that
- would have made it an advanced intelligence". The picture that they show of
- the form it evoled into looks very close to some form of Grey. "...stands
- one and a half meters tall with with a large bulging head, prtruding yellow
- eyes and a flat nose..." the dinosaur it was based on evolved with an
- opposable thumb, even though it had two other fingers. Just thought I'd
- post this.

- Subject: Posting Guidelines
- Date: 28 Jun 91 01:56:58 GMT
-
-
- New readers are always joining Paranet.
-
- For their benefit, allow me to review the rules of posting which we ask
- all our users to adopt:
-
-
- ******* PARANET ECHO POLICIES ********
-
- The following are guidelines for the operation of the Paranet Echos on
- member boards. Please take a moment to read (and understand) these
- policies. If we'll adopt these attitudes, we'll have a more polite,
- effective network.
-
- 1. No anonymous messages may be posted on the network. Some Paranet BBS's
- allow users to use "handles", and USENET users have no opportunity to
- place their names in the "From" field. If a user uses a handle, then all
- posts to Paranet Echos must be signed at the end of the message using
- the user's REAL NAME. In the case of USENET posts, it would help to
- place the ADDRESSEE's REAL NAME in the subject field. It is the respon-
- sibility of the Sysop of each Paranet Node to enforce this requirement,
- either by reviewing all messages before release, or by disallowing
- Paranet access to users using handles.
-
- 2. Personal Attacks are *NOT* allowed in the Net. In any echo dealing with
- issues as emotional as those with which we deal it is a matter of course
- that the validity of testimony on the part of certain individuals will
- be called into question. It is important, however, to remember that
- *ALL* parties are to be treated with respect. If you wish to question a
- person's validity, state your reservations AS YOUR OPINION. For example:
- "John Doe is a totally unreliable witness" could leave you legally
- vulnerable. "I BELIEVE John Doe to be a totally unreliable witness" is
- much better, especially if you can add "because...". Please be careful
- how you judge the parties involved, and attempt to defend your
- contentions.
-
- 3. Any user who is found to have knowingly and deliberately posted false or
- misleading information regarding the activities of the United States
- Government, its intelligence agencies and/or operatives, with respect
- to the investigation of UFOs or other related matters, will be locked
- out of the network immediately and permanently, and their name
- circulated to other UFO investigatory groups.
-
- 3.1 Since Paranet echos are exported to a number of countries around the
- world, it should be noted that Federal Law prohibits the revelation of
- "National Secrets" to "Foreign Governments". For this reason, we must
- insist that material which might violate the National Secrets Act not be
- posted in the echos. All sensitive material believed to be of legitimate
- interest to Paranet researches should be delievered via NETMAIL to Mike
- Corbin at Paranet Administration for review and subsequent release.
-
- 4. Direct Flames are best posted elsewhere. They will not be tolerated in
- the echos.
-
- 5. References should be included if required for clarity. Some users tend
- to copy the entirity of previous messages before responding, while
- others never quote anything and simply make comments about previous
- posts. You should remember that many boards don't hold all messages
- forever. Quote (if your software allows it) or at least paraphrase
- (write a simple summary of) the content of the message you refer to.
- Please DO NOT quote the entire message, as this is just expense for
- all boards concerned. Quote only the germaine material.
-
- 6. Please make all messages conform to the specified content of the Echo
- Area in which you are posting. Putting the messages in the right pile
- makes it MUCH easier to make sense out of the stacks of messages.
-
- 7. Enforcement. Users who violate these guidelines will be advised of the
- lapse by the Echo Moderator. After three violation notices, the user is
- to be locked out of Paranet areas by the sysop. A FIRST lockout will be
- for THIRTY DAYS. A SECOND lockout will be for NINETY days. The THIRD
- lockout will be PERMANENT. Sysops who refuse to lock out troublesome
- users can be dropped from the net by the Paranet Administrator. Users
- who believe the Moderator has been unfair in requesting a lockout can
- request that their Sysop plead their case in the Sysop Echo. In such
- cases, ALL net Sysops will be asked to vote on the matter. Vote of the
- net is binding on all concerned.

- Mike; You mention that a person wouldn't buy a used car before
- testing it by a qualified mechanic. Well, thats true but you also
- wouldn't take the car to the mechanic that worked for the used car
- lot. If that logic is used than we must all believe the Warren
- report and the Condon report, plus quite a few others. As you know,
- that when investigating a case we must all look at the "FACTS" and
- just because Ed will not turn over the Photo's to a lab that is
- funded by the government doesn't make the photo's fake.
- Ed did the right thing by letting MUFON handle the photo
- analyzes. MUFON has also sent the photo's to another expert and they
- are being looked at now. The results should be announced at the
- MUFON symposium. Might make a point to be there for the results.
- There is a reason that I'm pointing this out to you about sending
- information to the wrong places. I could put you in touch (but not
- at this time) with a Doctor that sent (according to him) some of the
- most remarkable photos to a certain Dr. Hy--- that were taken in
- Canada by a young lady, that not only of a Alien space craft but
- also of the Aliens. These photos were never seen again.
- This is why I made the remark that in no way would I send a to
- someone that I question its motive. I also have a friend that had
- sent a remarkable photo to Jim and Coral that was taken out of one
- of the goverments photo labs and it never was never received by
- them. We must all procede with caution. By the way, the photos that
- were sent to Dr. Hy--- were received by him. 73's ---Jim---

-
-
- Actually, it might make for a neat thought-experiment to see if we
- can develop some sort of empirical test for trance channelling.
-
- Offhand, I can think of the following points;
-
- 1. In order to evaluate a channeller properly, it should be understood
- that philsophical questions are NOT a good way of evaluating their claims.
- Nearly anyone can do some free-form philosophical, and New Age buzz-words are
- even easier.
- So, the test must ask whether an entity is really being channelled.
-
- 2. If the entity claims to have lived during a particular historical
- time that really did exist-- unlike, say, Ramtha, who claims Atlantean
- ancestry; that's more than enough to discard the 'entity' hypothesis-- then
- research should be done to find out as much about that era as possible--
- forms of currency, pronunciation of languages, food that were eaten, etc.
-
- This way, a set of questions can be set up to determine whether the
- 'entity' really did exist at that time. Bear in mind, this wouldn;'t be a
- 100% accurate test-- what's to stop the channeller from doing his or her
- homework as well-- but I'm inclined to think that it'd weed out most of the
- unauthentic entities.
-
- 3. If the entity claims a degree of higher knowledge, than the degree of
- this knowledge should be determined. In other words, if the entity claims
- that it can access the Akashic records and learn anything that's learnable,
- then that's a definite claim of knowledge.
- A set of questions whose answers haven;'t been found yet, yet whose
- answers are verifiable, should then be prepared. I'm thinking of Fermat's
- Last Theorem or the Goldbach Conjecture.
- The objection here is that, sicne most people go to channellers for
- spiritual guidance and emotional support, that asking them to do math is
- somehow trivial. It seems to me that a sufficiently wise entity could do the
- math if he/she chose to, especially if they can access Higher Knowledge. (And
- who's to say math isn't as important as spiritual guidance? For all we know,
- it MIGHT be.)

- I think there are two album covers, one has crop circles, one has irrigation

- Subject: Randle v. Klass
- Date: 2 Jul 91 06:58:00 GMT
-
- I wasn't too surprised when "Phil The Thrill" turned up on Larry
- King's show tonight to provide the counterpoint for Kevin
- Randle's presentation. Last week, in discussing the upcoming
- show with George Eberhart, I opined that Larry would put Phil on
- for that purpose, since he lives right in D.C. where the show is
- done.
-
- George didn't expect Phil to take on that role since he would be
- "in over his head" and he usually avoids such situations.
- However, we were both right... Phil was on the show and he was in
- over his head. His decision to try to debunk the case with the
- radar target explanation was was a key mistake. Randle was given
- the opportunity to quote the admission of Col. Thomas Dubose that
- the balloon explanation was a cover-up and that the balloon that
- he held in the photo with Ramey was not the debris recovered by
- Marcel. Oddly, Klass responded with the quip that Dubose is now
- 84 years old (as if this would impeach his credibility). Randle
- lost points for his failure to exploit the opportunity to respond
- with: "So are you!"
-
- Randle missed another golden opportunity when Larry asked what
- would happen if a bigwig like Dick Cheney asked to see the
- recovered UFO debris at Wright-Patterson AFB. Randle should have
- pointed to the example of Barry Goldwater who asked the then
- Commanding Officer of Wright-Pat (in the 70's) Gen. Curtis LeMay
- for access to the "Blue Room". Goldwater has often quoted
- LeMay's response: "Hell no! Access to that area is on a `need
- to know' basis only. If I can't get in there, you can't get in
- there." In fact, Larry King himself raised this story with
- Goldwater when he had him on the show, asking if it really
- happened. Goldwater admitted that it did. It would have been
- great for Randle to discuss this and for Klass to decry it as a
- myth of folklore, allowing Larry to jump in and say "Goldwater
- admitted it right here on my show."
-
- Klass' worst mistake was ending the show by his ad hominem attack
- against Randle, pointing out that in a previous book, Randle
- expressed his disbelief in an Air Force coverup of the UFO
- situation. Randle admitted that he did a 180 after looking at
- the evidence. This served only to reinforce the credibility of
- his latest work. Phil "shot himself in the foot" and that was
- the end of the show. To any impartial observer, Phil was in over
- his head.
-
- Any other reactions to the show?
