Strengthening Infrastructure / Intention Experiments

Date

Hosted byGeorge Noory

Historian, speaker, and author William R. Forstchen, Ph.D., shared updates on the ongoing campaign to bolster energy and communications infrastructure against EMP attack, asteroid strikes, and other disasters. The Biden-Harris administration announced a $13 billion energy initiative, with financing to modernize and expand America's power grid (funded by the passage of the Infrastructure bill). But Forstchen was critical of the announcement as many of the funds go to alternative and clean energy efforts. Only $11 million is designated for infrastructure improvements, and those are for cyber attacks and extreme weather events, rather than strengthening the grid for an EMP attack, he lamented.

Forstchen estimates it will cost around $30-50 billion to harden about 10% of the US grid as a start so that it could resist a major attack. Then, that energy could be used as a "lifeline" to rebuild the system in the event of a disaster bringing down the rest of the grid. The biggest threat of an EMP attack on the US is probably from North Korea, he said, though Iran and third-world terrorist groups are also of concern. Because action by Congress seems stalled on grid hardening, he believes that individual states should pursue their own programs. South Carolina, in particular, has made progress in that regard, he reported. Forstchen also talked about his new novel, Five Years After, coming out this summer. It's a thriller set in the near-future in which the protagonist John Matherson must contend with new threats to the fragile civilization he helped rebuild.

Author Lynne McTaggart is one of the central authorities on the new science of consciousness. In the latter half, she discussed her latest intention experiments and how small groups of eight people can effect change. She has started a new movement called The 8 Revolution, where groups of eight get together regularly for healing among themselves and their loved ones. McTaggart reported that a woman named Esther participated in one of her 'Power of Eight' groups, and the intention that was set was so potent, that Esther believes it was the catalyst for her healing from Stage 4 cancer.

Being part of a group allows people to experience community instead of isolation, and even achieve an "ecstatic oneness" with others, she marveled. Brainwave studies of her group participants show a similarity to those of Buddhist monks and Sufi masters tested during prayer and chanting. Out of McTaggart's 41 intention experiments, "37 have shown measurable, positive, mostly significant effects," she reported, adding that we could think of our brains like antenna receivers that are picking up and sending out energy. One key component to intention is being very specific or focused in your goal or request, and not picking out something that is overly broad, like ending all war, she detailed. Another successful element she has determined is having the group participants all think the same thought at the same time, which then becomes amplified.

TRIBUTE TO ART BELL:

On the five-year anniversary of Art's death, in the last half-hour, George played the remarkable clip of a pilot allegedly flying over Area 51 while calling into Art's show, and George's re-envisioning of the song Thanks for the Memories with lyrics about Art Bell, as sung by Rob "the Iceman" Eisenberg.
