Laura,
DD,
I am happy with the way things are. I am new enough that I am reading a
lot
of info for the first time. Sometimes I switch my list groups over to
digest
when the mail gets heavy, then I don't have to wait around for all that
download time just to hear read another persons "yes, I agree" post.
It is good for me to hear this. One main purpose of this list is to present
the logic behind the HET to new people- it is an introductory list in that
sense. It is different from most lists in this regard. Most lists, for
example, a UFO list, deals with separate events, news- not a train of
thought presented, over time, to all people who join. A UFO list brings it
to your attention every time there is a new sighting; and then the next
sighting, and then the next, et cetera. Here it is different, there isn't
much new, there are standing schools of thought.
Even so, the subject matter gets hackneyed for people who have been into it
for a couple of years and who have read a book or two. But we want to keep
those people around- they are a good resource of experience, and there is a
bond, too- we all share in a very special understanding. We all have a very
special but latent opportunity in the future, probably only on the level of
small groups among ourselves. So again, we all want to stay in contact, at
least.
But I really am thinking that the digest is the answer for maybe 25% of the
members, maybe more.
Let me give a practical example of going over the same thing again. I
recently posted something from a conversation with a guy from Point barrow,
Alaska, in relation to the phenomena of Arctic warming. Point Barrow, the
Northernmost city, is warmer than the lower part of Alaska! Warmer than the
interior, at least. This confirms the experiences of Arctic explorers across
the board. There are logical arguments for NOT accepting that Polar warming
is due to Equatorial currents- as I have mentioned before, stratospheric
currents are cold, the air becomes very cold up there. By the time it
reaches the Arctic, the air temp is in NO condition whatsoever to produce
the shocking amount Arctic warming which has been reported. Peary reported a
storm bringing temperatures of 50* in Feburary to Northern Greenland, Dr.
Kane reported temperatures, when they got way up there in terms of latitude,
that melted the deck ice of the ship, in November, I believe. During WWII,
when the convoys operated in the Northern Atlantic, one problem they had was
ice build up on the decks of ships which threatened the stability. They had
sailors out there at all times of day busting up the ice with mallets. And
here is Kane about 5* from the Pole saying that everything melted and it
warmed up a bit. Give me a break! Nansen woke up at night and complained
about the heat, in April, 4 degrees from the Pole! From above the New
Siberian Islands, he reported warmer winds from the North. Frode told me
that it was zero degrees at the Northern point of Norway, in January, while
in the interior, much lower in latitude, it was negative 30.
How interesting that it is whole regions which get affected, not just a
matter of some isolated areas. From Alaska to Norway, the same phenomenon
can be experienced, and across the Arctic ice. but the standard explanation
is just what that guy told me, that currents come up from the Equator. It
was so ironic that I just had to relate it, and of course, that comment from
the Point Barrow guy leads me into some talk about the phenomenon of Polar
warming. Of course, here we have the problem that has been building up- the
old timers have been hearing this for a while, read the stuff on the site,
and maybe read Gardner's book, too. But if I keep quiet, therefore,
discussion will simply stop, because nothing new happens. There are hardly
any new events. The reliable info is from the explorers of yesteryear, and
none of us can get close enough now to find much out, or to get in. So that
is how things stand- Reed and Gardner knew all this a hundred years ago,
wrote about it, found people to be unbelieving, couldn't organise much in
the way of groups or associations dedicated to the HE understanding, and
couln't manage to get their butts in there during their lifetimes. I have
serious doubts about any of us pulling off the trick, eithe.
I have a short but concise essay up on Polar warming called Is Polar Warming
an Indication of a Hollow Earth? at:

Anyway, I am going to get back into a lot of basic stuff, I'll try to make
it interesting- but not until Monday, I'm outta here!
