Allan, Welcome to taobums!! Your pal, Yoda

SFJane, Thanks for sharing! Your pal, Yoda

welcome to taobums!

Found a cool link: cleanmpg.com Lots of fun info. Will pump more air into my tires. I read there that Chrystler is betting the ranch on their 2009 Ram Pickup truck... If there ever was a US industry that deserved to die, it's this one. Hard to watch, though. Apparently VW is shooting for a 90 mpg Rabbit in 2010. Yoda

Like Taomeow, I'm wondering if copper and iron Tibetan medicine bracelets would work for the computer and the car. I know metal collects electromagnetic waves thus reducing the field effect. Maybe bracelets and ankle bracelets too. I wonder if the iron would be an additional help than just copper? While you are at it, it might be fun to play with the egyptian thing by wearing copper on the right and zinc on the left. Or maybe all this is just turning your hybrid into a serious weapons system?

Good stuff!! Thanks for the great story, Witch! Randi cursed our pet hamster after it got out of the cage yet again and wished it would just die. Sure enough Tiny Bear was dead by sunrise. While she's not a believer, she's had a few things like that going on. Interesting about street lights!! That happened to me all the time as a teen.

Rachel, You are an unschooler!! Randi and I are "semi-schoolers": I'm an unschooler and she's a 50-50 unschooler but she's ultimately in charge. Of course, it's not so much the structure but the energy behind the structure or lack thereof that counts. Is your state cool with unschooling? We are in South Carolina, so it's anything goes down here... homeschooling is all the rage. Your pal, Kyle

Hundun, Amen brother!!! Right now, my family is off on their summer trip to Pittsburg for a few weeks and I absolutely love it. All you married people with kids... you don't know what you are missing!!! Suckers!! My above post was more pro-stay-in-society rather than pro-marriage or pro-children. I just counted up my college friends and out of 19 all about the age of 40 there are only 10 children. That's what I like about the modern world: it's all good. Many westernized countries are like this. Absolutely nobody gets married in South Korea anymore, but they are an extreme example... their government is even forcing them to take time off work to take romantic vacations and courtship classes so their nation won't disapear! The birth rate stats in western countries also include immigrants who have lots of kids, so the statistics don't tell the full story. Personally, I like being married with kids but I ***totally get it*** that there are huge pluses to going in either direction. The nice thing about family life is the cozy companionship and partnership in lots of things... your energies can focus and build together very powerfully. The gigantic problem with family life is that there's no off switch to this mind merge... While I like being married, I much prefer single friends... they are much less controlled by the groupmind and more independent. When they get married, I lose half of them; when they have kids, I lose all of them except for one weekend every few years. The issue my single friends face is that their parents really don't respect their decision and that is tough to deal with sometimes. Your pal, Yoda

Dearest Witch, Try to stay calm or you and your hybrid might end up firing a lightning bolt that your victim won't soon forget. I can just see that aggressive driver crawl out of the burning wreckage that was once his car... a sadder and wiser man. After awhile you'll get used to it and smile at the service you are doing for humanity. Plus lithium ion battery technology is just around the corner for greater self expression. Remember you are a witch, not a Buddhist. Best leave compassion to the professionals. Your pal, Yoda

Cat, Just eating onions or garlic or exercising daily or eating well or meditating, thinking happy thoughts etc will change your epigentic structure and change which genes get expressed. Aging or doing the opposite of the above list will do the same... so no special practice necessary! Mom is trying to get me out of the door but if you google epigentics discover magazine, you'll find a nice intro article on that and check out epigenetics wiki too. It's a truly revolutionary discovery only 2-3 years old. Scientists have no idea how big this is going to get. I'm theorizing that the changing magnetic fields of the earth are going to unlock a shitload of genetic coding over the next several centuries... should be a fun ride!! Gotta go! Your pal, Yoda

Epigenetic changes are extremely powerful and do get passed down through the generations... you can lock or unlock a tremendous amount of genetic potential in a very short period of time.

Drew, If you can show me photos of Bushmen in full lotus, I'll be a believer. I don't care if you don't make much money, you'll always be my hero. Your pal, Yoda PS you and Witch need to do lunch... that would be epic!!!

Welcome to taobums!! I hope you enjoy the site!

We all do it! It's joke about the uncle who thinks he's a chicken but we keep him around because we need the eggs! Your pal, Yoda

Blind Owl, I agree with Hundun, Vajrasattva is da man!!! It's awesome that he's willing to help out. I hope you follow up with him on it. Your pal, Yoda

PM Scott about that. He's in the military right now. The complaint I've heard the most is that they might not let you out when you hope to be released and you spend a lot of time out of the country these days.

I was just reading the "Giza Power Plant" where the author is an engineer by trade and likes to reverse engineer weird things as a hobby. He said that you'll see a geared wheel built into the ground of the workshop. Bring a pole magnet and you'll see that the teeth of the wheel are magnets aligned in opposite directions, also there was radio transmitting and receiving equipment there and it was said that he'd string copper up in the air. He believes that the guy used some sort of electric resonance to lift the stones maybe in a similar manner to that electric "flying saucer" propulsion system written up recently in http://dsc.discovery.com/news/2008/06/23/f...saucer-uav.html . One truckdriver was asked to turn his back as the dude lifted a huge rock on to the back of the truck said he didn't hear any loud noise other than the rock thudding onto the back of the truck. The author believes that the geared wheel was used to generate specific electrical frequencies which may have been transmitted for some sort of resonance/interference pattern by radio to a different area of the compound. In the author's words: "If I were trying to replicate Leedskalnin's feat, I would begin with the premise that he was using his flywheel to generate a single frequency tunable radio signal. The box at the end of the tripod would contain the radio receiver (there are several tuners in Leedskalnin's workshop) and the cable coming from the box would be attached to a speaker that emitted sound to vibrate the coral rock at its resonant frequency. With the atoms in the coral vibrating (like those in an iron bar) I would then attempt to flip their magnetic poles--which are naturally in an attraction orientation with the Earth--- using an electromagnetic field." If there's one guy who can figure it out, it's AugustLeo... aside from his considerable esoteric knowledge he's an experienced electrical/sonar/Navy engineer. When Michael comes down for a class, he'll need to pop over and crack the case!! Yoda

Awesome thread, y'all. Witch, it's sooo nice to have you back. You and Drew need to do lunch sometime!!! Awesome post! Just for kicks, to tie in the Viking and the third eye thing, Stephen Flowers in his intro to the Viking spellbook, The Galdrabok, says: "The object is not a helmet in the usual sense, but rather a general covering that surrounds the wearer with an overawing power to terrify and subdue his enemies. The power is concentrated between the eyes and is often associated with the supposed power of the serpents to paralyze their prey... like the one with the evil eye. We also think of the Gorgons' ability to paralyze with the gaze of their eyes set in a head surmounted by serpents. Whatever the origin of the Icelandic magical sign, its function remains essentially the same, but here in the Galdrabok there are practical indications, not just mythic allusions." The Helm of Awe in this particular text is simplified from the one you if you google for the image of Helm of Awe. Just a cross shape, and only the ends fork out, no middle things. In the actual spells, the Helm of Awe seems to be used for pretty much anything: entice a mate, protection, aggression in the above example, and to calm anger too. It seems to be used in the "command center" sense where energy is being sent out and no hint of subtleties. Definitely get the sense that this was an art on its way out. Yoda

Fortunately, I think only Cam and I are overboard along those lines but it has all turned out nicely in the end. I'm very grateful.
