Ramblings on Time

 

Contact.  The movie.  Jody Foster.  Lots of science revealed in this story.

Sean David Morton.  The Sands of Time Books.  Details about the science and the experience of the humans who jump into the time stream….. and get off at  another station, so to speak.

We were confined. And we have punched holes in the canopy containing our dimension.

Fringe.  The TV show.  Isolation tank used to jump into the timestream.  Is this the show where they were called to seal up these holes, as they are detected.  Or was that another show?

Tesla.  The Philadelphia Experiment.

Did someone write the script for this “reality” we are experiencing? Or does it just happen as the film frames roll forward, letting things “just happen” - but what does that mean?  How do things just “happen”?  Energy bubbles bounce against one another.  Bounce us in a new direction.

Intent matters.

Humans have the unique ability to create using imagination - the image of what they want to create.  And so it be.

AI takes away a human’ ability to create, to have an imagination. Failure to nurture and develop these abilities from Day 1 of this incarnation cause them to atrophy.  Eventually, the ability to imagine and create will be extinguished.  If not us, what/who will determine “the future”.

Have you ever met someone from another timeline?  Someone who jumped here?                                  Like the old movie, Starman.

Tyler Kiwala’s “Journey To Truth” podcast reveals important ideas and testimonies about time as it has been experienced by others.

What is “lucid dreaming”?  I know what it is, but I just don’t recall when I’ve ever done it.   I’ve dreamed of conversation with others who have been meaningful connections in my life.  They seem very real to me when I recall them the next morning.  Usually, I forget my dreams.  But waking up to pee multiple times in the night has it advantages when trying to fill a dream diary.

Greg Braden says there is evidence of between 11 and 25 dimensions.  Each with its own frequency band. Like the AM or FM radio spectrum.

Just Shut Up

A.I. or AI

Back in 1983ish, Fred Ballard Sr. (a named partner at Ballard Spahr & Ingersoll, and Ernesta's husband) was interested in learning about the status of AI and possible benefits to a legal practice. We researched. Best we came up with was "expert system" to draft documents, and the software choices weren't very good. One was Workform, created and marketed by Eric Little. We experimented with using it for Will and Trust documents. I don't think we ever got it to work well. The time was not yet ripe. But well into his 80's, Fred Ballard was ahead of his time. He questioned whether or not "Personal Computers". or "PCs" as they were called, belonged on lawyers' desks? He experimented. He had always been a mentor to younger lawyers, and he had always given deep focus to improving lawyer writing skills. Within a year, Fred concluded that the lawyers who used PCs and word processing software improved their writing skills much quicker than those who wrote the old way - longhand or dictated, then typed by the secretary, and then edited by the author - and this cycle took days to do a 360. So those with PCs were doing faster 360s, and probably more of them.

Fast forward. Data collection begins. I had a IOMEGA Bernoulli Box that had two 10 megabyte removable cartridges, each about 3" x 8x. It was revolutionary. I could copy from one cartridge to the other - giving me the technology needed to back up 10 Megabytes of data! "Floppies" were still 5 1/4" thin disks, encased in a square plastic cover. Chat rooms were accessed via dial-up land lines. 600, and then 1200 and later, 2400 modems. Analog modems morph into digital modems. In 1988, POTS (plain old telephone service), a analog technology, was laid to rest... by just not installing any new lines. IP (Internet Protocol - IP) and Voice over IP - VoIP) become standard for voice and data. VoIP converts voice to data, so it's all just data transmission between computers. Cellular phone service is also an option. Data transmission speeds explode. Networking computers becomes easy and inexpensive. Personal computer speeds and data storage allow the server hardware market to spring to life. DOS becomes Windows. iOS rises, nearly dies, and then roars back to life. (Once you go MAC, you don't look back.) Color monitors become the norm. GUIs (graphical user interfaces) control how data is presented on the screen, with lots of images and colors. Photographs become easy to show to millions, perhaps billions, of people all over the world. A common mindset is created. E-mail and shared electronic calendars become mandatory business apps, and eventually, apps for personal use. Podcasts become a new communication vehicle. Network TV dies. Computers in phones - voice, audio AND data - are just about mandatory to survive in the world.

By about 2006ish, Facebook is is accepted as a thing, replacing MySpace. Social media is born. It morphs into a multitude of different software applications. Today, they are called "apps". (Have you ever tried to explain to your grandfather that "The App Store" isn't a brick and mortar building you enter to make a purchase?. Some are free and other cost money. And of course, today's apps capture your data - and send it to the central repository. Twitter rises. Telegram bites at the ankles of this market segment.

So how much personal information have I put out there that was sucked up by the data-Beast?

Who has used my data, and for what purposes? What are the names of the entities who have purchased my data? Which pieces of my data have been used to train AI?

I have refrained from using AI apps thus far. Initially, when AI's applications became known to the public - who cared to read that boring shit - only for NERDS - I kind of felt it is probably going to become very dangerous. I briefly looked into submitting what I write to a literary LMM (large language model) for comment and suggested revisions. But I didn't follow through.

But now, perhaps a year later, I have no question that the continued development of AI is inevitable. It is a leap forward in our evolution. We must refine development and use it in properly harnessed and beneficial ways. But the chances of that happening are slim. It WILL continue to develop, but unless we unharness a police force like GORT to keep it beneficial, someone's going to do bad things with it. But WHO is to say what is good and what is bad? That's actually a discussion we need to have.

Partners

 

Rules for Picking a Partner.

1.  Tell me about your childhood…. Through age 18.

If there is abuse, neglect, trauma, etc.  RUN

2.  Tell me how you handle money.

If he’s not a responsible provider, RUN

3.  How often do you do a parasite cleanse?

If never, or he’s not receptive to the concept, RUN

4.  Do you believe in vaccines for yourself or your children?

If Yes, RUN.

Travelers

 

Eighteen Rabbit, a Mayan king and shaman, is one of the first recorded time travelers. He left, and returned with information for the people.

This is exactly what Dick Parsons told me I did in my highest evolved lifetime.  Except I was Hopi.  I was a shaman, who brought information from “the other side” to the people.  1977.

John, Cancer and Canines

To My Friend Who Fears Cancer:

Do you know of Dr. Betsy Eads?  I’ve listened to her since the beginning of the PLANdemic.

Cancer.

Is not a death sentence anymore.

It was when your father was sick - for most all people

But now we have the internet

And we are educated enough to search out information WE personally need.

She addresses cancer.

Treatments.

She does telehealth.  From Florida.

There are many many testimonials as to cancer recovery - including stages 3 and 4….  Things have changed.  We all get cancer, but our immune system handles it…..  So any tests showing you immunity levels, as allopaths interpret it, would be good data points.  Like white blood cell count.  I’m not really up on specific tests for immunity levels.

A cancer diagnosis is something doctors use to scare people, I think.

Plus, they are encouraged to make this diagnosis.

Chemo is the most profitable type of cancer cure (haha) to prescribe.

I sat with my friend John when an oncologist, chemo salesman, tried to talk him into it.  He had stage 4 brain tumor, and tumors in his lower spine.  All started in the lungs.  He was dead in 3-4 months.  John declined.  But he did radiation on his spine because it had “cured” his German Shepard.  He loved that dog.  I had to place him….. 12 year old 100+ pound black wolf-like.  Maybe a belgium shepard.  Cancer survivor.  Not trained to behave outside of his house.  Found a rescue.  Took many days of many phone calls to find “THE ONE”.  They were wonderful!!! With a difficult animal, one with many issues, breed specific rescues are the best I think… He was taken in and lived his best life for 6 more months before he was found dead in his bed in the morning.  Merciful death.  He had a dog companion - that was a first.  And the 2 of them would go out into the back yard and BARK and BARK as they chased each other.

John watched my white Chihuahua, Patooch, when I traveled.  The Shepard loved having a canine companion.  They especially loved walking out on the enclosed front porch and barking at the mailman.  They really enjoyed that.

John lived near the West Chester U. Off campus housing.  The actual campus was maybe a 5 minute walk. One night the cops were chasing someone, looking for them, they knew the perp was close…. And then a copy looked at the Shepard, who was crouched down STARING under a parked car.  BINGO.  Found the guy.  The cops thanked the Shepard.

He also had 4 cats. I placed them with a no-kill rescue, with a big DONATION.

Activist Judges

 

I’ve been listening to Victor Davis Hanson’s podcasts.  Old guy from central CA.  Stanford professor of many years.  Lives on a family farm of many generations.  He talks to changes he has seen in CA, and elsewhere, and he has the perspective that only an elder possesses.

His recent commentary on activist federal district court judges is interesting, and coincides with my remembrances of  how things used to be.  Years ago, a district court judge whose decision was reversed by a circuit court or the Supreme Court was embarrassed…. This was a black mark on his record.   But today, a reversal is a badge of honor.

Rule of Law.  The activist judge has little regard for the rule of law.  They have no compunction to follow precedent.  And they fail to recall that nullification of constitutionally valid federal laws was the reason for the nineteenth century American Civil War.  A civilization cannot function in an environment when there is no certainty as to what the law is or isn’t.  Revolution?  You want revolution?  Oh honey, you have no idea what that entails…. 

Milt’s Best Lesson

 

I was in my late teen-age years, in the early 1970’s.  It was early evening at my grandparents’ house, and a movie I really wanted to see was coming on the television.  I wasn’t sure my grandfather, sitting in his usual chair in front of the TV, and beside the lit fireplace, would be receptive.  But he said, ‘OK, put it on.”

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MAoIYDxNefU

I Heard The Owl Call My Name.

He and I watched it.  I don’t recall anyone else being around.  I was quite spellbound by the story of a young priest, dispatched to minister in a wilderness town amongst the American Indians… he became very sick, and when he heard the owl call his name, the indigenous elders explained the meaning to him.  His time had come.

At least that’s how I remember the story…. I will watch it again and see if my memory is intact.

But here is the lesson:  Milt was a churchgoing and deeply religious Methodist man.  He and his multitude of brothers and sisters always met at the church in downtown Chester on Sunday.  Frequently, I would go with him and my grandmother.   After the indigenous elder said his peace, Milt turned to me and said:

“There are many ways to find God.  There are many paths.  It matters not so much how we get there, but that we do.”
