I am a retired train driver who has 49 years service with QRNational. When I first started there were still steam locomotives running. 1965 saw me qualified as a fireman. Yes. I did fire steam locos. Classification as driver came in 1975 and as a tutor driver in 1995. My retirement came in 2012.

Add keep Alive to Hornby Jinty

I bought the Hornby Freight set. It came with a class 8 shunt diesel and a Jinty steam loco. At the time of the purchase I added a keep alive capacitor to the diesel shutter and housed it in the radiator. The Jinty had an open cab. There was no room for the capacitor any where so I couldn’t install one. While browsing the internet sight of YouChoos an option presented itself. It was a 6800uf super capacitor. My reasoning suggest that it might be able to be installed in the bunker. One was bought on spec. It turned out to be just the right size to fit the bunker of the Jinty.

Note the position of the capacitor in the bunker. Look closely. The capacitor is clear of the mounting hole.

To start the body of the loco was removed. The DCC chip does not have the usual heat shrink plastic cover on it. It was removed from the clip in preparation for soldering. A very small hair sized insulated blue copper wire was soldered to the + of the capacitor. A similar piece of white wire was soldered to the – of the capacitor. These wires were about 4 inches long. The capacitor was fastened into the bunker via double sided tape. Be careful to not cover up the little cutout in the body for, if it is covered you won’t be able to get the body back on the chassis.

Next task is to run the wires to the DCC chip. I fastened the wires to the body via the use of a little Loctite 401. Super glue will also suffice. In either case don’t glue yourself to the model. In the photo you can see how I routed the wires in the tanks on either side of the loco. It went under the footplate on either side too. The visible part of the wires were painted black. The glue was applied using a small Jules’s screw driver. This helps. A small pair of tweezers will be of assistance as well.

You can see the capacitor in the bunker and where to solder the wires on the chip.

A third hand is recommended. Something to hold the DCC chip steady. The photo shows how the two wires were soldered to the points on the board. Remember that blue is + and white is –. Care should be taken when soldering. You don’t want to bridge any connections. Use a visual aid and a small soldering iron. This stuff is so tinny that it is like grains of sand. Loose one on the floor and you will never find it. What I am saying is this. If you are not familiar with such fine soldering work, you might want to get someone to do it for you. Or alternatively go on line and learn about how to successfully do this kind of work. Once this is done the DCC chip can be put back in its clip and the body can be fitted back on the loco. Now comes the time to test. If all went well, the loco should have a functioning keep alive feature.

A close up of the jinty’s DCC chip so you can better see where the wires go.

My loco used to stop on points from time to time. Having keep alive functionality helps the loco get over these spots without faltering. How it works. The super capacitor is like a small battery. It supplies power to the chip for a few seconds. This allows the loco to still operate for a short time while it passes the dead section. Enjoy your modeling.

Unusual Thing to Model

Unusual Thing to Model

This is a story about how I came to model the stripped down Evening Star. The model is a Hornby one from about the 1970s. It is tender driven with traction tires. It came about that I decided to convert it to DCC by installing a chip in it. The chip chosen was a train control systems T4X one. I intended to add lighting at a later date. That’s why the four function chip.

What a job. All manner of problems raised their head. I decided to drill a hole in the frame to access the wheel pickups and supply path for the tender drive. There was little room in the tender so the chip had to reside in the boiler section of the locomotive. This is where the first problem arose. The drill bit snapped off in the hole. No matter what I tried the broken piece would not budge. The solution was to get a tougher drill bit and drill a hole beside the broken off bit.

This worked fine and access was gained through the chassis instead of running the wiring around it. Good! I got the locomotive running on DCC. Next all the rods on one side started coming adrift as I tried to reassemble the locomotive. One of the ones that became unattached was reassembled with the head of a sewing pin. The coupling rod wouldn’t comply with this solution. What to do now? Well being a fireman on a steam locomotive back in the sixties, the solution presented itself. Any loco engine-man from those days would know what to do if this happened on the road.

This incident is not seen modeled anywhere. So I decided to do what we did with the real locomotives. I centered the piston. Put a chock of wood either side so it couldn’t move. Then roped it into position with what I hope looked a bit like tar band. (A type of rope that we used.) You could drive a loco home like this. It is necessary to stop the valve from moving. It should be in mid gear position so no steam can get into the piston. A hard job it is to strip down a locomotive like this. Those rods were very heavy. You can see that I stuck the coupling rod to the footplate. Locktite 401 was used to do this. Just a small dob on each end will do it.

Well that’s it. Do hope you enjoyed this little indulgence.

Let’s Talk About Automobile Pollution.

Let’s Talk About Automobile Pollution.

In the past nobody cared. Cars were smelly noisy things that people put up with. The fuel they burned was also dangerous to the environment as well. So the original cars have noise pollution, bad odors and polluted the environment. Boy! They have come a long way since those days. Most ICE cars don’t make much noise any more. There are plastic baffles and covers to lower the noise form the engine. Exhausts have mufflers to quieten the noise from this location. What about smelly? Well yes they are still smelly. Just look at any large city in the world. You will see the smog and if you go there in the street you will smell the fumes from all the ICE engines.

It is no wonder the city authorities are legislating to ban them from their cities and putting stringent pollution controls into place. These days service centers have exhaust sniffers to measure the pollution at every service. This brings me to the story about my 1982 Volvo 240 DL. It was a leaded petrol car. When leaded petrol became obsolete I had no recourse but to use unleaded petrol in it. This meant installing a catalytic converter to burn unleaded. (required by law). So this car had all the original pollution control gear on it as well as a catalytic converter on it. To compensate for lower octane rating I used premium petrol. In every tank I used to put Wynn’s gas treatment. This compensated for the lack of led in the petrol.

When it came to servicing this vehicle the technicians would be amazed at the reading taken from the exhaust. It was fun to watch them. They would put the sniffer in the exhaust and get no reading. Assuming that the sniffer was broken it was tested on several other vehicles. Then put back on the Volvo. Same result was observed. I don’t know what the figures for the pollution might have been but they would have been interesting.

Going to my present vehicle. A 2007 Subaru Forester. Its tailpipe has remained perfectly clean for 11 years. It still has the original exhaust system fitted. What ever is coming from the exhaust of this vehicle is a colorless gas. CO2 is a colorless odorless gas which causes greenhouse effects to the planet. So is CO. There are obviously no particulates generated by this vehicle. I certainly would not want to sniff the exhaust fumes though. They would be toxic.

I thought this was an interesting look at the state of affairs relating to today’s ICE cars. We all know about diesel gate. You only have to sit behind one at the traffic lights and watch the pollution coming from it when the vehicle takes off.

Let me digress for a bit. It is appropriate to talk about other sources for carbon emission. In Australia people are talking about clean coal. Perhaps it is wrong to call it clean coal. Fabric filter bags are installed on all the coal fired power stations to remove the particulates from the smoke before it entered the stacks. This is a requirement by law. The harmful gasses still are emitted from the stacks you just can’t see them. Another source of carbon emissions is shipping. Bunker oil burns black as your boot. Now days there are scrubbers in the funnels to clean the smoke before it is released into the air. Trouble is sea water is used for this and it is put back into the sea scrubbings and all.

So you can see we need to lift our game if we don’t want to suffer climate change. Make no bones about it though. Climate change is happening as you read this. Earth is a living thing. It tries to compensate for anomalies but we are asking too much of it if we think we can continue on our present course of polluting. In the past whole civilizations have perished from this very cause. If you have eyes to see the stories are written in Earth’s memory. The geologists find the evidence in the strata layers that they study. All this happened before and it will happen again. It is true, however that many main stream scientists sough at this notion because it goes against their preconceived notions of what they think the world is like.

While researching this article I came across something of interest regarding clean coal fired power stations. In my city of Gladstone, Queensland, Australia, there is such a power station. Its output is 1600 mega watts. Its stacks have been clean for over 20 years. When you are shown coal fired power houses on the news in some place like China, the stacks are all shown with much black smoke coming from them. I wonder whether this is the true case or not. Since the technology exists it follows that no power station on the planet should be putting out great plumbs of pollution. These technologies can be retro fitted to any coal fired power station. As a matter of interest the following link below makes for interesting reading about state of the art of the clean coal technology. It appears that Gladstone Power Station is one of the cleanest coal fired power stations in the world.

My View on the Up Take Of EVs in Australia

                   My View on the Up Take Of EVs in Australia

Tesla Model X

It is apparent to me that a lot of people are under the impression that the up take of electric vehicles will not begin in earnest for at least five to ten years. If you check out the internet and view the videos from different EV events it is clear that it will be much sooner than that. There are a lot of manufacturers with EV cars available right now. About the only SUV that I have come across is the Tesla model X. It is no wonder that it has become very popular in Europe. Manufacturers in Europe can’t get their diesel ICE cars up to tear 6 pollution requirements. Therefore they have dropped diesel powered models from their range.

Nissan Leaf

A lot of manufacturers have added EVs models to their range. If you look back in history to the up take of mobile phones then I would say the stage of the market with EVs is about the point where the iPhone came into existence for mobile phones. Many companies started copping and the situation was that soon everyone had mobile phones. Well the Tesla model 3 is to be available in Australia by 2020. The Nissan Leaf is slated to be here by the later half of this year 2018. Therefore Nissan will have the drop on Tesla as far as the lower end market is concerned in Australia. The price of Tesla model 3 will be more middle priced rather than low end. The Nissan Leaf is slated to be around $50,000 to $55,000 Australian dollars when it arrives. This puts out of the reach of many low income earners.

Other manufacturers have models coming between now and 2020. So the stage is set for the up take of electric vehicles at least by 2020. I think that by then demand will out strip supply. The manufacturers simply won’t be able to make enough electric cars while the Giggle pots sit on the sales lot because people want to go electric and the price of fuel for ICE cars will make electric vehicles the car of choice. Of course the oil companies may drop the price of oil to move their product. You might be able to get an ICE car for a steal as manufacturers and car yards try to liquidate their stock.

Something else is happening right now. This is converting existing ICE vehicles to all electric. Expect to see that become more prevalent. The time it takes to charge an electric vehicle is getting shorter. There is one that can be recharged in 6 minutes. This is what it takes now to fill a gas tank if it is empty.

Airoplanes are now becoming electric. You can buy an airoplane that is electric. It has a flight time of around four hours. At the air port the battery pack can be exchanged with a fully charged one. The one I saw was a small passenger plane. Others are on the drawing board as well. You won’t see an electric air bus or dream liner any time soon though. The amount of power that these things need is too astronomical.

What about boats. Well you can buy an electric out board motor. It is usually quite small. Used for fishing where an ICE motor might scare the fish. In time to come though you might be able to get an electric runabout which is covered completely both inside and out with a light sensitive membrane which will generate the power. Add a battery and it could still be used when the sun goes down. Can you imagine a Tesla motor and converter connected to a water jet? If Elon doesn’t do it someone else will. That boat will really boogie.

Tesla Model 3

It appears that Elon can sell as many cars as he can make. I think we are on the edge of a cliff when it comes to electric vehicles. For me the market is consumer driven. If everyone is like me. I have been waiting for my electric car for 72 years. It’s still not in my garage. The next five years will be very interesting indeed. It is difficult to see the future. We will soon see how I went with my predictions. So many variables to consider it is easy to get it wrong.

Sorry about the pictures. For some reason my site is not up loading pictures to use in my posts. Yes! I fixed the issue with photos.

Why Don’t We Listen?

Why Don’t We Listen?

     This came about because I continually see on the internet where people keep talking about flying saucers doing ninety and one hundred and eighty degree turns and they just can’t understand what is happening. Two famous scientists gave us the rules that govern it but we still fail to apply their work to the current phenomenon. One of these is Isaac Newton. The other is Albert Einstein.

     Look it is simple. Newton tells us that mass is the reluctance of a body to have its motion changed. This means that if the state of motion does not change then there is no mass. Blind Freddy can tell you that no mass was generated when flying saucers do these aggressive maneuvers. The question it why? Albert Einstein has the answer. He told us that everything in the universe is relevant to everything else. So we have to start thinking relatively. This means that we did not see what we thought we saw. At least relatively speaking.

     When I was in school I had trouble with Newton’s laws too. Mass is not weight. Weight is what we press down on the earth with. Mass is generated when we try to change the state motion of an object. To describe this force we use equivalent weight. For example: If you are traveling in a car doing forty kilometers an hour you have no mass. You still press down on the earth with the same weight. The mass is generated when we introduce say, a brick wall. To describe the force we say that the mass is equivalent to so many tonnes. In this case your body may exert a force equivalent to two tonnes for a short time. This does not mean that you press down on the earth with two tonnes. What it means is that your body generated a mass equivalent of two tonnes.

     Where is all this leading? Torsion physics causes an object to loose weight. What is really happening? The focus of the matter in the torsion engine is being redirected to the center of that engine instead of the center of the earth. This is relatively. Flying saucers have been seen to have a large magnetic field around them. Some say. “It appears that they have their own universe around them.” This is the result of torsion physics. In effect space/time is warped by this process. Flying saucers generate their own gravity in effect. The focus of the matter that composes the ship is at the center of the warp generator not the center of the earth.

     In effect when a saucer makes a turn the matter that composes the saucer does not see any change in its relationship to its center of gravity. That is its gravitational focus. Therefore no mass is generated. Simple as falling off a log. Isn’t it. Perhaps you wondered what happened to the weight. Well it is still there. It is just refocused.

     The original question! Well I guess it’s because we can’t see the nose in front of our face. This is why it is so easy to hide things in plain sight. Women say: “If you want to hide something from a man put it in front of his face.”

Repairing Dapol Motorized Signals

Repairing Dapol Motorized Signals

I recently bought some Dapol signals. They were the lower quadrant type. One of them got zapped when the power source was accidentally short circuited. The symptoms were over heating of the unit and the signal not changing.

After removing the cover which is held by a small Philip head screw, I noticed that one of the components was hot. The power was disconnected. Further examination revealed that the motor appeared to be ceased. The blue wire to it was UN-soldered. A five volt DC supply voltage was momentarily applied in each direction. The first attempt failed but on the second attempt the motor fired up. After giving it a bit of a run I soldered it back into the circuit.

To put these signals back together it is necessary to hold the signal in the proceed position to avoid fouling the drive mechanism on the actuation arm. Care must be taken to make sure that the worm gear is in the right position and the switching mechanism is between the two limit switches. Also care must be taken not to squash any of the wires in the plastic moldings during reassembly. The accompanying picture shows what to look out for. The red arrows show the parts that foul while trying to assemble. The green arrow shows where I unsoldered the blue wire. The green arrow shows the worm drive disconnected. The worm drive must be connected to the motor and the switching mechanism needs to be engauged in the worm drive. The motor assembly is held above the circuit board section and the end near the signal base inserted first. It needs to be fully up against the signal base before lowering the rear end.

I think the motor’s rotor some how annealed and stopped it from turning.  Hope this helps someone. Some times it is not necessary to wreck down a signal when it doesn’t work. I have seen some to these signals wrecked down and operated with points motors. Not quite the manufactures intentions and not as satisfying as the original signal.

I Don’t See Any Aliens

I Don’t See Any Aliens

Just look in the mirror. According to some people we are the aliens. Not an indigenous species of this planet. I was viewing a video on a You Tube channel called SecureTeam10. It pointed out that homosapiensapien may not be an earthling after all. Many things concerning our anatomy causes us health problems. Like back problems, sensitivity to the sun to name a few. I have problems with bright sunlight. My pupils dilate to the size of the full stop at the end of this sentence. May be I need a couple of those lenses that the grays use to protect their eyes.

Well all this reminded me of a crazy dream I once had. This dream was like actually being there. It was full colour with surround sound and smell a vision. Like I was there fully awake and able to experience the full sensation of what was happening. The time was 50 million years ago. I was on a star ship. The ship and its people were my responsibility. The problem was this. Our planet had been destroyed we had no home. To survive as a species we had to land on earth or just die in space. So I had to make the decision to make an emergency landing on earth. This was difficult for me for I knew that either way we all might die. The best option was deemed to be to try an emergency landing here. We have been here ever since.

Just a crazy dream right. What if it were true. What then. Suppose I was actually remembering something. In my life in this time I have trouble being the boss and having to make such decisions. I am more comfortable being secretary or second in command rather than the boss. So the dream says something about me. If we came here fully evolved then that would explain a lot that we have trouble with. Like all these ancient ruins that predate our recorded history. Also the archaeology that defies what some call rational explanation. It isn’t irrational if you open your mind.

Humans are extremely resourcefully. I recently view a You Tube video where this guy in the US used gravity to stand massive concrete blocks on his own. (https://www.utube.com/watch?v=E5pZ7uR6v8c) Just because it appears impossible doesn’t mean it can’t be done. If something exist on Earth or in the solar system we are the ones who probably put it there. Even the base said to be on the dark side of the moon was probably built by us in a previous civilization. Our history goes back much further than the great flood. There is evidence all over the world of these past civilizations. Much of it is hidden under the waters of our oceans. With resourceful people around we don’t need aliens to help us or do it for us. We can simply do it our selves.

If you doubt human resourcefulness you should go to the internet. The very things we are doing right now are mind boggling. You can see all sorts of machines that man has built. Many marvelous buildings, Tunnels under the sea and under the mountains are among the achievements of modern man. Even venturing into space is a marvel of the modern world.

No we don’t need aliens to help us. May be they have been there all the while helping where they can but most of it is us. ALL US. If you look at the Roswell incident, that provide a resource but it was diligent, hard working men and women that actually did the reverse engineering. So even though we had some help we had to do it our selves. Some times you just need a sign post to know which way to go.

So you don’t believe in human ability. You don’t think we were given a leg up. You still believe the Roswell incident was nothing more than a puff of smoke. Well poor you. You must run around with your eyes closed or perhaps your mind more like it. Go Google it. This is an enlightened age where the secrets of yesteryear have been made public for all to see via freedom of information act. It appears governments all over the world are getting into this. Things written down by the military or the establishment are not that easily dismissed.

Super Soldiers That Exist Now

Super Soldiers That Exist Now

Andromeda Machine.
Downloaded from Greyfalcon.

There could be up to a million super soldiers living on this planet right now and they don’t even know what they are. You think that’s a bold statement to make don’t you. Well let me explain. Lets go back to before I was born. It may go back even further but I am sticking to what I have learned from studding the UFO phenomenon for the whole to my life. It all starts out in Nazi Germany. Before the Nazis came to power. The Thule Society were playing around with trying to build a anti-gravity flying saucer since about 1928. In the beginning private funding was used. This eventually ran out. Then Adolf Hitler came to power. To start a war may have been a plan to get further funding for the project. Of course Hitler had other grand plans. He wouldn’t have taken much persuading to invade Poland.
Any way the project came under the wings of the SS. Hitler wanted a super weapon that could win him the war. Can you imagine trying to defend against a squadron of flying saucers. Any way the war ended before the prototypes could prove themselves. The allies wondered where Hitler got all the technology from. Remember there was not just the flying saucers. Hitler had the first ICBMs. There was a lot of other technology that was kept secret from the masses. Project Paper Clip was not just happening in the US. Other countries took their fair share of the spoils of war. So Nazi scientists went to varies countries including the Russia.
A couple of years after the Nazi scientists settled in America the Arnold case happened. You see it wasn’t aliens that abducted the Arnolds. By that time a working model of the Nazi flying saucer was operational. The secret under ground government used it to harass people in the US and eventually in the rest of the world. By the early fifty’s they had built a working mother ship, an Andromeda Device. Two football fields long. It was very huge and capable of inter stellar travel. Now comes Star Fleet (for the want of a better word.). Can any one apply for a job in Star Fleet? No. You have to born to it. Put quite simply. The individuals involved in this fleet were breed for the purpose. Genetically designed for the specific task they will perform when enlisted.
In a word, Super-Soldiers. The so called gray aliens have been messing with our genetic structure since Adam and Eve. The under government uses these beings to create super soldiers. This is the purpose of a lot of the abductions. Prospective parents are abducted. Sperm and eggs are taken. In a laboratory an egg is fertilized. Then genetic manipulation takes place. Another abductions to do artificial insemination then subsequent abductions to keep an eye on the development of the child. Children will also receive training during child hood. The mother is usually told the the baby is special and that she should look after it well.
At about 16 years of age the recruit enters a 20 year service with Star Fleet. After which at the age of 36 the person is age regressed to 16. Taken back in time, had the memory blanked, safety switches applied to the brain to stop any super powers and then put back fifteen minutes after being taken. Nobody is the wiser. A perfect solution. No one remembers what has happened to them. No one reveals any secrets. If you read all the abductions reports, most people have been blanked. Or can’t remember much. You can’t hide from them. They will find you any ware on this Earth. This is why I said at the beginning that people who have been there can’t remember. They are super soldiers and don’t know it. If you take the 20 year service scenario then the whole force of people employed in Star Fleet has been change out 3 times. Since I don’t know how big the fleet is I can’t be sure of numbers. I allowed a third of a million for each 20 years.
It is not just Americans in this force. They recruit from all over the world. It is the genes they are interested in. if you know what you are starting with, it is easier to do the manipulation. You simply start with the closest match and go from there. We are living in a zoo. The greys are the zoo keepers. If you have found out what is going on in the lower layers at Dulce, it is easy to come to the conclusion that these greys are cloners to the universe for super-soldiers.
You may wonder what thinking lead to these conclusions. Well I have been studying the UFO phenomenon for most of my life. Much of the abductee literature points to this scenario. When you have been studding this for a lifetime all the pieces of the puzzle start to fall into place. Here are some breadcrumbs for you to follow. Col. Philip J. Corso’s book “The Day After Roswell”. If you think you haven’t been getting disclosure, think again. This is disclosure at its best. The Grey Falcon site is a good source for Nazi saucers. Use the internet but be careful the internet is full of rubbish. You have to sort out the chaff from the hay. I read as many of the UFO related books that I could get my hands on. Mufon is a good source. Watch the documentarys. Don’t accept everything as truth. If you want truth go with your gut feeling. In this subject your left brain is your enemy much of the time. It is pragmatic and wants you to accept what it thinks as reasonable. Your soul does not lie. I usually watch something and then sleep on it before I make a decision.
Well this is my reality. What’s yours? Go find out if you come to a similar conclusion or not. Remember, you can spit in one hand and believe in the other. All you have at the end of the day is a hand full of spit. If you are going to believe in something believe in yourself and most importantly, your soul. This is just one persons reading of the data. There are as many interpretations in this field as there are people on the planet.
God! I love this planet.

You could be like these guys and Waite for it to come and bite you in the bum.

No Flat Earth No Hollow Earth

No Flat Earth No Hollow Earth

It amazes me that people still believe in this, in this enlightened age. Despite what some conspiracy theorist say about these topics man has ventured forth to other bodies in our solar system. We have gone to the moon in person on NASA’s back and on probes to other places including Mars. We can look back to our home and see that it is in fact a ball. A beautiful living planet against the vastness of space.

Another argument is this. There is NASA footage taken on board the ISS that verifies how mater will clump together in space. The astronauts conducted a demonstration showing how things left floating around the cabin will clump together. Make them seperate again and they will come together again if left floating and not tied down.

This is how objects like planets moons and the like are formed. This is a 3D world not two dimensional. There are those who still claim that God created the earth only six thousand years ago and that it is flat. This flies in the face of all that is reasonable. It also fails to take into account actual biblical events like the grate floor.

The Summarians were said to be the first civilisation. That was six thousand years ago. Technically this is incorrect. It is probably the first one in our time. That is the time since the great flood. The great flood is said to be around nine to twelve thousand years ago. I can’t pull an accurate date out of my head. The thing is that after the great flood, there were just a few people left on Earth. Just the ones on the ark.

It only makes common sense that it would take several thousand years for the population to increase enough to warrant a city.

The biblical account has a civialization before the flood. It also says that there were giants in the land in those days. There is also an accounting of how many there were and that they all died in the flood. Every thing was washed away including the cities. David and Galiath was a very very long time ago. Adam and Eve is thought to be about sixty thousand years ago. So my question is “ How on earth will you fit all of the bibles’ accounts into just six thousand year?”.

Truely! Someone must be filling some peoples head with rocks. Yes! The disinformation experts are doing it again. You should never call yourself an expert. X is an undefined factor and a spert is a drip under pressure.

The hollow earth can’t exhist either for the same reasons the flat earth can’t exhist. Also, have you ever seen anybody walk on the roof of a cave? The ones who believe in a hollow earth will tell you that centrifugal force holds them to the roof of the cave. I gave not seen it. They conveniently forgot that those of us on the surface would be flung off. In fact the earth would fling itself to pieces. In truth our planet is just a loose conglomerate of matter held together by what we call gravity. Never mind that the center is molten from the tremendous pressure down there. Pressure gives heat. Heat melts rock. Newton’s laws cause and effect.

Now! Something about belief. You can spit in one hand and believe in the other. All you have at the end of the day is a hand full of spit. Your beliefs can not change that which exists only your perception of it. There are stranger things in heaven and on earth than you can possibly imagine. Check out the rest of my blog. It is highly probable that you won’t believe much of it. Remember, I have only relaid my experience in an unusual life. I don’t care weather you believe it or not. It actually happened. There is much I have yet to tell.

Technology

What I’d like to talk about today is technology. In my early life there was much less than there is today. We tend to take it for granted. For example. I am sitting out the front of Woolworth’s in Boyne/Tannum writing this on my iPad mini. In earlier times there was no such thing. When I was a kid we didn’t even have TV. All we had was AM radio.

There was a comic strip called Dick Tracy. It depicted  a watch that worked like a videophone. There were super fast ferries that used water jets. This was all science fiction back then. It’s all fact now.

I was in the cadets when I was in high school. Once when we were at a training camp I was amazed that someone could be hiding in plain sight. During the exercise one of the COs stood at a distance. He was in carkey. It was night so we couldn’t see him. Another fired a military flair. We still couldn’t see the one standing at a distance until he was ordered to move. Then we saw him.

In this time there are aircraft that are radar invisible. There are experiments going on to try to make a tank that can change its colour according to it’s surroundings. There is work going on into a film that can be attached to an aircraft in order to make it invisible in the light spectrum. It works by taking video pictures on one side of a plane and displaying it on the opposite side.

Now! There are people around that think all science fiction is nonsense. They couldn’t be more wrong. Over the years we have had many science fiction movies and books depicting what will come to pass in the future. One can pick any science fiction work and there will be inventions there that are in the wings. Somewhere in the world someone will be quietly working on it.

It is likely that in fifty years there won’t be any transport vehicles as we know them today. Can you imagine a city anywhere in the world where there are no cars, buss and trucks. No trains either. About one century ago Nicola Tesla spoke of this. Doors will become a thing of the past. Why. We will simply walk through the walls. Impossible you say. Well they did it in “Doom”.

How to get around in the future? Well in “Jupiter Assenting ” one of the characters just tickles his ear and is transported to any where he wants to be. Where is all this leading? Well it is my considered opinion there people in this world that have such secrets that they know this is already possible. You see most of the larger countries have had in their possession crashed technology from other worlds. They are studding and reverse engineering these craft.

Hitler’s Germany had flying saucers. People were told that they were just paper machete models but you don’t spend billions over 15 years and finish up with a paper machete model. They also built a thing called an Andromeda device which was essentially a mother ship. It was basically a submarine without the tower. All the allied forces were flabbergasted at the technology that Hitler had. So much so that they took as much of it as possible home with them. They even took the scientists who were essentially SS officers.

Looking to the US now but it was the same elsewhere. After Roswell (that is the saucer crash) the powers that be had a big problem. How to bring an essentially backward world that had little technology up to speed with what they had come to know. With technology anything is possible. Even time travel, age regression and many other things that you can not possible imagine. So what were they going to do. Well, for the hole of my life and probably yours too they have kept it secret.

They have been drip feeding us using science fiction movies and books. While we were watching “Star Trek” on the television, they were doing it for real. Using Hitler’s technology. It is my considered opinion that humans from this planet have been trekking about the galaxy since the early 1950’s. That’s about the time they would have got an Andromeda device working. There was one working in Germany just before wars end.

You may not believe all this but you must surely see that technology is advancing exponentially. Much of what is only science fiction today will indeed come to pass in your life time. It it did in mine. One final question. What do you think would have happened if the powers that be just told the truth and gave everybody this secret? Sure it would have been a different world but we would have had a global melt down of biblical proportions if secrets weren’t kept. Now may be the time for every one to know the truth but governments will not give all. It just isn’t logical.
