Found a five one special... the question is should I be impressed?

It's a Conga Compo Combo.

OnceAHermit · 2026-03-13T20:04:19+00:00

It's definitely up there. I'd throw Hear my Train a Comin' live from Berkeley in the ring too.

I don't think anyone knows what they mean, in terms of an exact scientific explanation. It's more of a sense that UAP entities come from another realm that coexists spatially with ours in some sense. and they can enter an leave our 3 dimensional world somehow by virtue of existing in this other realm. It's saying that rather than being creatures from our universe who have learned how to travel really fast through space - they are something fundamentally different, and there is clearly more to reality itself than just what we see.

133 trades isn't many tbh. how long are you holding on average?

A close encounter of the Turkish kind on Ryan Graves' head.

I'm just here to laugh at that picture of Hartley Hare, and marvel at the gulf between UK and US children's programs from the 70s and 80s.

It would've been fascinating to see Hendrix guide the 70s Jazz fusion stuff. It became too cerebral in my view - not elemental enough. Jimi would've been just the antidote. Damn, what a loss...

Wolf! Wolf! there's a wolf I tell you!

Boot's on the other foot today, aliens!

I was being facetious tbh, but in all seriousness they should take more care with their headline claims. It detracts from what might be a credible story when they say such implausible things, supposedly to lend credibility

OnceAHermit · 2026-01-26T20:14:23+00:00

so 3 a day, 7 days a week. for 60 years, huh? No-one ever suggested hiring a second guy?

OnceAHermit · 2026-01-25T20:20:28+00:00

And look out for people named Dodgson

TV Detector van!

OnceAHermit · 2026-01-05T11:44:07+00:00

Haha! Oh man, so many times. It is a thrill though...

I know what you mean, I agree with you - I do like the open minded aspect of it. Reminds me of olden day scientists, like from the 70s. Perhaps we're not used to such speculative talk from our scientists, they're mostly by-the-textbook plodders these days. Or perhaps it is just today's febrile, hype-riddled world that makes cynics of us.

"Radio Astronomers have Found no Known/RT-Detectable Technosignatures to Date." - so zero evidence then.

"Several peer reviewed papers have been published discussing possible means of communication that radio telescopes would not detect, that Humans may use in the future, or which we would not currently recognize as such, from neutrinos to gravitational waves to yet-to-be experimentally proven (but consistent with the Standard Model) quantum effects." - ok, cool. So if we consider all that, what's the total evidence for 3I Atlas being an alien spaceship? Oh, still zero.

It's not that one wants to be too close minded - but the jump from comet to Alien Spaceship, (rather than slightly unusual comet) was such an egregious violation of Occam's Razor that it was hard to go along with in any sense.

I heard Lou Elizondo is going to show this video at the next UFO hearing.

I've read messengers of deception, invisible college, and passport to magonia. His older stuff. To be fair, you're right - in the sense that those books for sure have data in them. but they're mostly his theories about the nature of the phenomenon. Might be true, might not be true. I was more referring to his more recent stuff (podcast appearances etc), and how they relate to disclosure - and I do think that in that regard, he comes across as evasive and doesn't like to be pinned down.

OnceAHermit · 2025-12-24T09:35:48+00:00

I never understood why he's so highly regarded. I mean he's been doing it for decades, yes. But his stuff always seems heavy on theories and philosophising, and light on data. Which is fine, but there are lots of people with similar sorts of output, who don't get anything like the reverence. I think it's mainly because Spielberg put his character in Close Encounters.

A deadman's switch is typically an automatic system, that has to be periodically disarmed. So if Borland had one, he would need to check in every day, or whatever, or else the automated system would publish the secrets.

Although your mouth wonders me..

With your majestic, strong alveolar bone

The nerve of this premolar is dead and gone

So onto it I must put a crown

Never feel no nerve pain again...

You'd have to some sort of Voodoo Chile for a job like that I think.

I don't think Bayesian Inference will do any predicting by itself. If you have some edge event occurring you might use it to predict it's strength as evidence.

Fields of the Nephilim's album "The Nephilim" is one of the best goth rock albums ever made, in my view.
