wow - i know this will be true. if it be imminent
i had better be more gentle in my romantic thoughts
towards the ladies ;-))
it may have already happened. i thought one lady's
eye's were weird. she looked at me and then walked
off with her nose in the air. of course, a cause may
have just been my been my 'do it yourself' haircut.
love - jim

Hi Jim.
The Narrative of Mason Algiers Reynolds of Virginia
(aka The Hollow Earth, edited by Rudy Rucker)
describes Tekelili as being one with all.
When one experiences "oneness", there's no need for
sending out soundwaves through the air to communicate
with one another. Near the central anomaly (what
is commonly known as the inner sun on Dean's HE list),
Edgar Allan Poe and Mason Reynolds experienced this
way of communication with the black skinned race of
beings.
One another's thoughts and feelings are no longer
confined to their skulls but all are openly shared for
everyone to see with no time lapse in communication.
Lack of or reduced gravity probably had to do with it.
Actually, Tekelili is being experienced on the outer-
surface now. And, our sphere of oneness is growing.
Not only feelings of emotions but physical sensations
including pains of others (other bodies) can be felt
by one, hence no presence of violence within a
Tekelili union. If this hasn't reached you yet,
it soon will.
Feel free to share my reply with the list if you like.
Love, Patrick

i have previously read Poe and this book. i just saved
this one to my computer. thank you. i had to do poe's
bloody 'nevermore raven' for school memory work ;-))
except for a few dates and towns from poe's lifetime,
herein, with regards to the hollow earth, are you
suggesting any of these adventures are true ??
Nathanial Hawthorn's 'Celestial Railroad' is neat.

3rd time shall be the charm:
Since I am guilty of the occasional science-fiction
novel, I‟d better make clear
right away that The Hollow Earth: The Narrative
of Mason Algiers Reynolds of
Virginia is an authentic nineteenth-century
manuscript and was not written by
me. The original is available for inspection
as catalog item *PS2964.S88S8 in
the Edgar Allan Poe Collection of the University
of Virginia in Charlottesville,
Virginia. I first saw the manuscript there
on March 7, 1985. It consists of 378
pages of parchment, handwritten in black ink.
I have edited The Hollow Earth
from a notarized Xerox copy of the manuscript.
I‟m sure it would boost my desultory half
career as an author to present The
Hollow Earth as my own creation, but I‟d be
doing a big disservice to everyone.
The simple fact is: Every word of The Hollow
Earth is true, and we must all
question our beliefs about the planet we live on.
My confidence in the legitimacy of The Narrative
of Mason Reynolds grows out of
the research I‟ve done over the past five years.
I‟ve traveled to Hardware,
Lynchburg, Richmond, Norfolk, and Baltimore.
Every single thing I‟ve looked into
checks out completely, right down to the
courthouse documents.
Simplest to confirm were the facts about E. A. Poe.
In the years 1831-1833, Poe
lived in Mechanics‟Row on Wilks Street in Baltimore
with Mrs. Clemm and
Virginia, next moving to a house on Amity Street
in the western part of
Baltimore. From 1835 to 1836, he was editor of
The Southern Literary Messenger
in Richmond. Upon visiting the Poe shrine there,
I was able to examine the
marriage bond of Edgar Poe and Virginia Clemm,
which is indeed dated Monday, May
16, 1836. At that time Eddie, Virginia, and Mrs.
Clemm lived in a boardinghouse
on Bank Street at Capitol Square. The reader can
check many of these facts for
him- or herself in any reliable biography of Poe.
The biography I know best is
Arthur Hobson Quinn‟s beautiful and meticulous
book, Edgar Allan Poe: A Critical
Biography (New York: Appleton-Century, 1941).
After the marriage, Mason‟s information about
his Poe does not, of course,
correspond to what we know of our own Poe, the
one whom Mason calls MirrorPoe.
But the information Mason gives us about our Poe
from September 27, 1849,
through his burial on October 9, 1849, accords
perfectly with what is known. Poe
did take a steamboat from Richmond to Baltimore
on that September 27, and he was
indeed found dying near a polling place on
October 3, dressed in cheap clothes.

At the end of the Book, "The Hollow Earth", Rudy
Rucker states that he did not
write the book but only edited a 19th century
manuscript. Each of us gets
to decide whether this story is a true-story or
a fiction just as we have done with Etidorpha.
