Anticipating the Future
| Date: | 07-01-05 |
| Host: | Ian Punnett |
| Guests: | Paul Guercio |
Guest host Ian Punnett(1) talked with futurist Dr. Paul Guercio and SDI (Star Wars) physicist Dr. George Hart about the MERLIN Project(2), a computer-based forecasting technology that uses specific dates -- the beginning points of major life events -- to produce a graphical image of fluctuations in a person's future (see About Timetraks® below).
According to Guercio, big events happen at the same time for "time twins" who share a common birth date. As evidence, Guercio pointed to the similarities of the Timetraks® for Art Bell and General Tommy Franks. Though still in its infancy, the MERLIN Project forecasting technology could one day be used to create a kind of "Farmer's Almanac" handbook of the biggest upcoming moments in a person's life, Hart explained.
Later in the show, Guercio discussed the Iraq War, Timetraks® for Elian Gonzales and Florida Governor Jeb Bush, as well as revealed Astrology's inability to predict exact circumstances. Friday night's guests have also made available for Coast listeners a free PDF report titled How the Future Happens(3).

About Timetraks®
Tonight's guests, futurist Paul Guercio and physicist Dr. George Hart, coined the term Timetraks® to describe the output of their MERLIN Project(1) software.
The code was custom designed by a team of SDI/StarWars physicists to capture moments of what Guercio and Hart like to call "heightened-eventfulness." These uncommon moments of future activity, where important events will likely occur, are generated by mathematically capturing a particularly propitious past moment, like the beginning of a relationship or the start of a new job and applying a precise formula of cyclic intervals to that past 'frozen' moment.
The result is a graphical image of all the future moments, when echoes of the original moment will again be heard. MERLIN Timetraks® are a lot like pages of sheet music from a very unique and one-of-a-kind symphony that can predict the timetable of future events. The Timetraks® for Friday night's Coast program, and instructions for reading them can be viewed/downloaded at the project's Timetrak® Library.
