The Russians were more interested in the dome then the gadgets inside the dome. It was an emergency set up for an international display if I remember my dome history right. It sounds like it might function as an evaporation cooler used in hot dry climates. The principle is that you lower the air pressure so as remove what water is in the air since the moisture holds a lot more thermal energy than air you can reduce the temperature of the air itself. The coolers we used in Tucson added water to the air then the lower air pressure removed a the heated water by evaporation. Very effective on dry days, a lot less affected by wetter days especially prior to a monsoon. Darn and all this time I was hoping there was a Rube Goldberg gizmo to ponder over. :) -----Original Message----- From: Charles J Knight Newsgroups: bit.listserv.geodesic To: GEODESIC@LISTSERV.ACSU.BUFFALO.EDU Date: Wednesday, March 31, 1999 10:33 PM Subject: Re: You asked for it...Chililng Machines >> this may just be pure hype, > >I don't know if it's true or not...but that's the way it was explained >to me by several different companies.

Not to any dangerous degree but has sensors become more an more sensitive the background radiation can disrupt readings. The Viking space craft had their RTG's mounted on long booms to extend them from the main body of the craft. It works but the long booms affect attitude stability when your moving the camera equiptment in relation to the craft. Even spinning up the tape recorder can create instability in a space probe. Galileo screamed for RTG's given it's distance from the sun and it's power eating long range sensors. The Galileo is a flying scientific work horse it's going to return tens of thousands of times more data points than the Mars rover did even on a good day. (Martian day that is.) When then Apollo 13 astronauts ejected the Lunar Excursion Module that they used for their life boat they dumped it into the ocean with it's RTG. The ocean sediments have kept the RTG from corruding and by the way have slowed down any signature to the point that ocean burial of radioactive waste is now back on the drawing boards. Recheck your data points Brian the data return on the "cheaper" flights far exceeds what data return used to be gotten back by heavier more expensive space craft. -----Original Message----- From: Brian Hutchings Newsgroups: bit.listserv.geodesic To: GEODESIC@LISTSERV.ACSU.BUFFALO.EDU Date: Wednesday, March 31, 1999 9:23 PM Subject: Re: NASA more like Bucky ><> Brian Hutchings 31-MAR-1999 21:27 > r001806@pen2.ci.santa-monica.ca.us > > well, normally, we don't deal with dumb-ass space-cadets, but > you should get a copy of our journal, > *21st Century Science and Technology*, ne *Fusion*, > til the Bushwhackers shut it down (and > they are also known as Royal Luddites). > on the wayside, > what NASA is upt to, not particularly due to headbeancounter- > fromTRW, Goldin, is what I call, Cheap, Cheaper, Cheapest! > the non-use of a radiothermalgenerator on Pathfinder was an example, > as it could have run til it dropped, although > this was largely because of the EPA and the people, > namely environmentalists, who have been stricken by Henry Stimson > and the doctors Strangelovin' (just saw them freak > over Galileo !-) > > thus quoth: > Mr. Roach, he especially doesn't seem to understand > the impact of technological evolution, which by the way > is the only real Natural Selection going on. > > --The Duke of Oil! > http://www.tarpley.net/bush8b.htm > ========================================================================= Date: Wed, 31 Mar 1999 23:42:41 -0700 Reply-To: bward@metro.net Sender: List for the discussion of Buckminster Fuller's works From: Bruce Ward Organization: cchhhyeh, right...

I have no problem sharing GEODESIC with domies, but if they start getting ugly and shouting in caps and saying "enough is enough", then I'll maybe take a moment to remind them that their pettiness is not my problem. I'm not abusing this list by posting stuff about LAWCAP, GRUNCH and NATO bombings in the Balkans. I can't imagine Bucky letting all this go by without comment either -- nor any thinking individual with a stake in what goes on aboard Spaceship Earth for that matter. Recall that my Kosovo posts were about putting up geodesic domes in the refugee camps. Some took issue with my casting of FEMA as a relevant agency (but the FBI goes overseas to investigate crimes, so why not FEMA to handle disasters?). I too find some of my back and forth with Brian a bit tedious, but want to save it for the record anyway (same w/ MSM). It's Bucky-related and web-archived -- GEODESIC is an appropriate tool for the job. Just delete my posts unread if they're a problem for you. Certainly I wish a lot more people with some background in Fuller's philosophy were taking a stand on issues of the day. There'd be a lot less public ignorance about our option to succeed, big time, if we had a greater show of commitment and courage (duh). It's very clear to me that Fuller had only a few serious-minded students. The rest just ripped off whatever they could use and made it someone else's job to keep the central corpus alive. I consider myself one of those few -- but certainly not the only, and am glad for the good company I'm in.

The DEA use black painted helicopters too so given I was on the main artery (I-19)between Tucson and the Mexican border during the encounter, the coptor that had me in it's sights could have been a drug surveilence aircraft. I-19 is the main artery also for drug, gun, and illegal aliens. I'm quite aware of the long inaffective drug war the US government as waged in the American southwest I lived in Tucson for 30 + years. The drug war is sham so is the stupid war on illegal aliens. And IT IS a war because Mexicans are being shot to death by border guards. Border guards on both sides are on the take. etc. etc. Suffice it to say the power that for instance the DEA has or FEMA has is not in the hands of competent individuals. I'll pass off thier ineffectualnist to incompetence and stupid human turf tricks. Sorry Kirby but the FBI's envolvement abroad is illegal and is the equivelent of the training camp known as the "School of the Americas". It's illegal because the FBI is only supposed to be abroad to train. They are training which is bad enough, but they're also operating. It would seem that the powers that be are in general only trying to maintain the arcaic status quo by any means such as drug wars, alien wars etc. As far as Kosovo goes: I'll put my money with a UN based emergency relief program. And if FEMA doesn't like that, they'll have to pry my cold dead hand from my computer mouse. :) Long live the decentralized desimination of information. ========================================================================= Date: Thu, 1 Apr 1999 03:35:47 -0700 Reply-To: List for the discussion of Buckminster Fuller's works Sender: List for the discussion of Buckminster Fuller's works From: "Lawrence E.

Neal Bastek Neal, I understand your difficulty in following what individuals such as Kirby Urner, Mark Somers, Michael Mitchell, and Brian Hutchings are "talking" about. I've been "reading" list for several years and half the time I don't understand what their talking about either! The problem I've observed is no matter what the subject line it (almost) always ends up being something about differing forms of political groups and their attitudes and actions towards other groups and the boundaries they create. It would be nice if we did have a subdividing of this list so it was easier to follow only the topics that currently interest someone viewing the list. I know that I'm interested in everything Bucky worked on or thought about, but I do have to admit that there are times I just don't want to read about politics (I even agree with Heinlein's view that "Politics is the only game in town for Adults")... especially on long days were my kids have been "having at each other" ;-) Could it not be possible for someone to go through the archive and find out what the top 4 or 5 "subjects" that have been discussed on the list is and then create a mailing list for each? I know there are several sites that will sponsor mailing lists as well as web based newsgroup type discussions.

As I posted above, my approach, when I come across mismanaged entities, is to recast them in new roles. There's a momentum thing here. If a large, heavy train is going in the wrong direction, do you stand in front of it, holding out your hand and yelling stop? Or do you run on ahead and insert a switch, and then lay some track of your own in a preferred direction? Obviously, put that way, my question is rhetorical. I take the same approach with the CIA as I do with FEMA. Bucky's 'Grunch of Giants' zeros in on the CIA like no other book (although 'Critical Path' mentions it plenty). He wanted his most serious-minded students to continue his battles at a psychological level, cool headedly and with the help of synergetics. He created a context wherein they'd have to take on the same invisible army he was always in trouble with (but precessionally entraining). Plus you'll find the CIA explicitly on the back of 'Synergetics 2' in many editions, in the person of Ed Applewhite (another one of his best students). I didn't make this stuff up -- it's what I was given to work with. So even though our company (Dawn Wicca and Associates) does the books for the Ben Linder Foundation (Ben was a Portland-based engineer, brutally murdered by CIA-backed contras), even though I'm a Quaker and committed to not using outward weaponry, I'm still willing to lay positively vectored track for the devil's own "agency from hell". That's simply how I run my railroad. Your strategies may differ.

In actual fact, it is very much NOT in the USA's economic interests to be pursuing the current policies. This is a very self-destructive course, hurtful to global businesses, destructive of many trust-based relationships. I think the Greens make the usual mistake in the proferred statement: they impute devilish cleverness behind events, instead of a simple "spazzing out". A lot of the problem is our curriculum. People are just sloooooow, thanks to inadequate training. Now, more regarding my own Quaker-informed approach to a solution: The current case needs to be contextualized against the backdrop of a bigger picture in which a promising future is spelled out in more detail -- I'm talking on a bigger scale than just in the Balkans. We need to replace hostility with a yearning for peace -- because of the interesting options and possibilities which it promises. I realize this sounds vague -- but the imagineering department has already been rather specific with storyboards and plausible futurism. With most humans so easily manipulated by media, it's hard to get a word in edge-wise. Politicians still monopolize the world stage at every turn. I return to my earlier scenario (geodesic domes for Kosovar refugees). Regardless of atrocities or property crimes against persons or identity papers in Kosovo itself, the West has a golden opportunity to showcase its humanitarian side in its management of the refugee problem. Any show of competence in this domain will immediately create a "domino effect" wherein the public thinks "OK, if we can take care of the Kosovar refugees, how about those folks in Africa?" This is a positive development, i.e. we'd like these dominos to fall. The challenge is to apply grand scale logistics and planning of the kind applied to warfare, and reapply it in direct service of civilians (which means we need to stop referring to them euphemistically as "collateral"). I know this sounds utopian and naive, but the brute fact of the matter is we have sufficient engineering skill to supply the necessary inventory, assets and trained personnel. This is what the Russians are whispering to everybody through back channels, as a part of their "moral high ground" campaign, and I'm in a position to know that their psychological warfare is proving rather effective. Many journalists and politicians are looking at the refugee situation with new eyes and thinking "if we have any superpowers in this picture at all, then we should have the means to take care of these people in a more humane and intelligent manner." If the USA politicians give the green light to its imagineering sector (high tech and Hollywood-minded), then we'll be freed to flood the picture with life supportive technologies -- a steep climb out of the human tragedy confronting us right now. If the USA withholds this kind of support, then the Russians will continue to gain power and credibility, as they continue to point out (correctly, I have to say), that the USA is deliberately refusing to mitigate the suffering of innocent Kosovars -- in effect capitalizing on their suffering and thereby collaborating with the Slerbs in making their lives a lot more ugly and miserable than they need to be. Even the political opponents to the current regime in Slerbia opposed the bombing -- because it is serving the political objectives of the current regime. Clinton and Milosovic are two sides of the same coin at this point, each using the war to bolster their selfish political hold on power. These two deserve each other. The sight of a competent and humanitarian agency in this picture would help to diffuse the war-mongering mentality all around. The USA is well-positioned to make this a part of the new context in the Balkans, and the Russians are making sure that everyone knows this -- meaning every day that goes by without a huge escalation in humanitarian assistance for the refugees is a day lost in this game of high stakes psychological warfare. It's troubling to me to see the USA losing ground in this way. I pray this slide into hell is short lived and people quickly come to their senses.

It was, It was a lot like bucky on canvas. It was to small a canvas to put what bucky had to put on a canvas. Brian why don't you cut off your cyber ear and send it to everyone. I was the only one in the Gallery that had a big magnifying glass about 7 inches. They let me use it to look at the paintings. His brush strokes are many times 1/4 inch deep, and very symmetrical time consuming dot like impressionists dribble on with stubble brush and all other ways. Maybe a spatula at times. His bed room is a 3 foot by 3 foot painting much bigger than most. The potato eaters are also 3X3. The flowers, and fields are the greatest color parades and always hard working people in the paintings with hard stories searching for one more chance at life. Thank god for bucky he has made the canvas the whole earth and we can paint our own picture for the future, with design science and tools, and bring us all to home together for our future species to make good of the use of this planet. Vincent had a humming bird that was made with a dot of paint but you could see it was a humming bird with the magnifying glass and it was as if he teleported the paint to make it, it was luck, or was it faith, or was it mind paint, teleported mind paint into a humming bird, you could almost hear it fly. Yes enough! Hummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmming!~~~~~~ :- ) it was so little outside the window of a farm house as a lady was walking into the front door all else was dark, a little red humming bird was outside the window, with out the glass you would think it was a drop of paint that was a mistake. with it you could see the wings, and sort of tail, with a head. It was definitely a humming bird. the rest of the picture was so depressing, the humming bird saves the picture to joy, it was the reason for the whole painting and no one ever sees the bird I bet. It is the size of a candle wick in the window but outside the window, I saw it with the magnifying glass. Yes enough.

I own Bucky and Anne's dome home in Carbondale the original first and only dome of Bucky. I worked with bucky very closely for 16 years and traveled around the world with him once in 1972. Would you like to buy his dome from me and not build your one in the woods. I am now asking 200K after I have seen the Van Gogh exhibit here in LA, the dome in Carbondale is the only single family dome that bucky designed. It is a master piece of architecture and most critics of it are just harshly jealous of it not being theirs. If you would like to see it go to my site, to make a park out of it. http://home.earthlink.net/~syntrvity/index.html If you have any questions about bucky and domes I am an expert or I mean a comprehensivists or I mean and expert comprehesivists expert specialists, comprehensisvisttiststttttt.

I know that if enough focus is out there on the net, I can make mind matrix ideas that I have had in my the back of my mind that come out with the fact that all these idiots are watching. I mean colleagues. I have not been with bucky for 16 years the same amount of time I worked with him. To remember some times takes the knowing fact that others never met him and I need to make true facts about him apparent to others. He was a great man because as tami states he had love for the whole human species, equal and looked out for them with ideas for design to save the species from extinction. HE was very interesting in he as Norman Cousins would say he made you proud to be human, this is a new idea in this world of war, and hunger. The most interesting thing about ideas that bucky had and offers to us all is that no one else has these ideas and he has no competition in this regard. The educational system has him off the radar screen and his ideas are the only one of there kind that will solve all the worlds problems. WE here on this list will make the revolution of the design science new age make the world work, world game, Geni type scams work and make the world work for all black, white, brown, yellow, all must have equal futures and in time we shall all be happy to have worked for this end. IT is not communism to help your children eat and train them how to hold a fork, or chop sticks, it is not communism to help feed the world, it is love. WE are the only humans that really care that know bucky, the rest are in a Darwin and Malthusian dream of dog eat dog. War, for what, to save oil so you can come back from Nam and have the price of gas be doubled after you had your knees blown off to get the gas. This is bad planning. We need management on this planet, I would vote for Kirby for president over the rest of these gas chiefs, pip squeaks. President of the world, The computer should be president and we should all just program in the problems and let it spit out the Ed Applewhite award for the best design to date. Dymaxion government, on a world level. We must first form a vortex mind matrix that will allow all humans to be on the same wave of interaction to start with. My design for this is unitivity. This is a mind vortex matrix that will allow all agreement to come together and allow co-operation on a grand scale. IT is the idea that we have a state of mind to allow integration of all people of all thought programs to have a place of truce to allow all race, class and religions a place to say we put our hatchets in the ground and lets talk out how we can make the future work and then we can all live together with our differences and be proud. This is using the unitific method, integration not specialization.

I would not like to name them all, I do not think this would be Kosher to do on the Holidays. I took it once in Carbondale in 1963 a day or so before I met bucky and anne at the Fowler poetry reading. Osly. IT was such a religious experience that I needed someone like bucky to allow me to understand the volume of interest that is available to an individual. I am not sorry I did it, and it was legal at this time. I do not base any ideas on this experience but I do think that it blows the ego out of the picture enough that you can drive a truck through.

I've heard whispers from a well placed source that MI5 is secretly drawing up plans to bump paying customers off the QE2 and send this luxury cruise liner to the Adriatic to pick up a load of the most seriously endangered Kosovars. Britain is hoping other NATO countries with cruise liners will follow suit, and start a Humanitarian Armada. For its part, the USA has many office buildings with hotel- grade plumbing, suitable for evacuating and filling with refugees. Given USAers have two places of residence (office and home), the displaced workers will be entitled to full pay and benefits as they retire to their homes, in some cases telecommuting to keep the paperwork flowing (in many cases, that won't be necessary). Businesses with no credible Y2K plans might be first in line to surrender to this FEMA-orchestrated bail-out. All this will be way more effective than helpless hand- wringing and waiting for USAers to voluntarily part with their extra garage-stowed hand-me-downs. This cannot be treated like some typical Christian guilt trip operation, where the focus is keeping a trickle going out the back door (apparently, DCers miscalculated, thinking that kind of piss poor treatment would be sufficient in this case). Rather, this is an emergency situation that will require real sacrifices. If the geodesic dome option is too high tech and logistically challenging for NATO to take on in the short run, then I think this British maneuver (cruise ships) coupled with the CIA initiative (empty the office buildings for refugees) is more likely to bear fruit in a hurry. I've glued to my TV, watching for news of these developments. The intelligence agencies aren't always listened to these days (obviously), given the crying need of certain politicians (some of them disguised in military uniforms) to hog the limelight and press scenarios which contain very few IQ points (thereby playing into the hands of the high IQ Russians, as per usual).

I hope that someone will give me 100K to invest in Fuller projects of my own choice and make a park out of it in Carbondale before the year 2k. http://home.earthlink.net/~syntrivity/index.html We all only learn by mistakes, But only the first time it is made does it not count after that the second ones count,. Joe Moore is a great example of a non-ego design site integrity; say not, do only' being. You Kirby talk about you , me, me, me, and I, I , I and you never even met bucky but once for 30 minutes. this is not to say that you have to meet him to see his ideas for humanity as a design for integrity. But you use them for ego design, so your parents can rationalize the money they spent on your education. You hide behind Ed Applewhite as if he makes your mind clean and clear of guilt of selfish ego games. We all love you anyway, but try and let others have some fun as well. Kosovo will bring a lot of hurt to a lot of people and Pearl Harbor may be around the corner in this respect you may be right to say World Game is information that all those participating in the war do not know anything of this option. But politics becomes noise fast. I agree that bucky was A political and your slobbering lines are just part of your covering up how ignorant you really are of bucky and his ideas. I forgive you. WE do have to talk about something and domes get boring after while as well, I want to talk about unitivity and no ones cares but at least it is new and original. I feel it is more pertinent to bucky than anything else, it took me 30 years of work to get to the ideas I have. I only studied bucky and that is it. Of course this means everything in the universe. I wish you and yours as well as all others happy holidays to the Jewish persons, and the easter persons and so on. MSM Don't be so surprised your ignorance is deeper than the ocean on that one. You are reprimanded more than anyone on all these Fuller sites. YOu are just a computer freak gone mad, try and find more to die for than defending your ego for the sake of humanity, try caring more about people on this list. You have made me into a mad man just to get past the dragon at the entrance of the cave, you. You make this list angry and I have plenty of e-mails that say if Kirby just wasn't dominating the lists we could get some real heart filled info and a warm feeling that bucky had with this tool, You make it a slam dance of ego's and you have made me make a fool of myself cleaning up your mess all the time. I would like to talk about real truthful ideas that can help us all share in the ideas more and not just wait for your judgment for the record that you are leaving for your imaginary followers in the future. Enough already! Calm your self and let others participate with dignity and not have to slay the dragon to get an idea across.

Comments: To: synergetics-l In-Reply-To: Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Hey little guy, I haven't made it hard for you to post to Synergetics-L. You subscribed when you chose to and have been here ever since, posting whatever and whenever you like. Forgive me if I take the same liberties myself, but I don't institute a liberal set of guidelines just for your benefit and not for mine. I have the same freedoms as you do. Your holding out how well you knew Bucky is quite pathetic. Likely his greatest students are as yet unborn. I am just one player among many. I'm got my strengths and weaknesses, like anyone. One of my weaknesses as I allow myself to respond to your utter crap from time to time. I know Joe Moore, have met him in person, have had private email exchanges with the guy, and believe it or not it's OK for me to register surprise. I'm not telling him he's wrong or bad -- just saying I'm surprised, that's all. Very simple. You make a big doo doo out of it. You really do seem extremely jealous of your relationship with Bucky and want our adulation based on that friendship. As far as I'm concerned, you haven't earned our respect and leaning on Bucky the way you do is sad. I don't know why you say I hide behind Ed, as I simply reposted something he sent to the list, with my thanks. Many people have the same opinion. You have really made a gigantic fool of yourself, is my reading. Joe Moore subscribes here as well and knows I've always respected his scholarship and best efforts, any disagreements aside. You, on the other hand, I do not respect at all. You're a greedy parasite, a sell out, milking your supposed friendship with Bucky for all it's worth financially, dangling the dome in front of the family and making them jump through your hoops. Anytime someone has an honest disagreement with you about the value of your silly albatross plywood fabrication in Carbondale, you go through the roof, calling Jay Baldwin "Hitler" for example. That's just your gut talking -- you want your 100K bucks and no one had better stand in your way. Then, when you're worried about how you're coming across (I'd certainly worry, if I were you), you coat your posts in a lot of lovey dovey "we love you, we forgive you" sycophantic suck- up language. Sugar coated shit, is your trademarked product. I'm frankly quite disgusted. But it's your own grave you've made for yourself. Sounds like you're quite happy with it. Rest in peace then. I have no real desire to continue this conversation, which is highly repetitive and gets us nowhere. I apologize to this list for indulging in another round with this guy. I've made my position absolutely clear and this really doesn't add anything. In future, I'll simply post the URL for this one, if anyone ever asks me what I think of MSM and his "unitivity" bullshit, which has nothing to do with synergetics and is a discredit to Bucky. MSM was one of Fuller's worst students, that much is crystal clear.

I dangle the dome of Bucky and Anne's in front of those that would like to pay me back the money I have in it. The family supports me all the way, doo doo bird. You on the other hand are locked out. You are the monster that makes it so hard on all these lists to get to a loving and happy go lucky communication around here. You and your Hitler Jay who thinks wood domes are out of date and his pillow dome is twice as good as any in the world. You speak highly of your own artifacts and low of Bucky and the institute. This put you in a no defense position except to hide behind your visit with Ed as still in the ok bucky club. I am on the peoples side of this. I want to help others have a clear road when they come in here. I have run into a brick wall from the start just like any new comer will, you. You always make every one think you are the prince of Fullers new world. I am. Not you. Or at least I am a much more loving person than you are but as said before arrogance like you and Jay is bliss. I am here to bulldoze you guys into mediocrity and allow others to see that for the truth of Fuller's ideas you both are just parrots out to show your feathers I have 10 lines of original thinking for every word of yours. You should allow your humble strengths to lead you not your anger that you are not king of tetrahedrons. I have made your mistakes before and that is why I tell you chill out as king tut. My dome home in Carbondale is the first bucky ball dome home in the world. I have letters to prove it. I have statements that the BFI approves of the dome becoming what it should be. The example that the first world man, or average person out to help all humanity can start in a humble hick town in no where and make the world turn its head and listen to the truth about how to make it work right. Jesus and Buddha, Allah, and other the other great profits said be good and tell the truth , but none of them could tell you how to plan and design the whole earth to make all humans live in heaven here on earth, in this respect the dome is the manger that allowed the ideas to originate. Roam home to a dome, My home that is the real place of birth of these ideas in the time they occurred. You can call me names and my ideas bs, but at least they are mine, I do not see you doing any better at all. My ideas are extensions of bucky's in a real sense. How do I know. I sit in front of him for 16 years and spent more time with him than you, Jay, I will put that to most anyone in fact, except Jamie and of course his lovely daughter and the one the deserves the most credit for holding out and letting people like you run the archives. You would put a Mc Donald's in the middle of it. You and people like you would take the freedom of the average person away from seeing the truth. Keep it for yourself and be king of info. I am so glad that the family runs it, why, they knew what Bucky wanted to do with it. They knew him best it is right they should. You only know how to fight, that is your forte. You will learn by your mistakes and some day I will respect you for it. Until then I personally will not speak for others as you do. I will hate you for what you are. A selfish pip squeak. Someone sent me a sign off acting like it was me, just as the other individual stated about Contra Bucky, TO THAT SITE THAT ALLOW THE NAME OF THE PERSON SENDING IT TO NOT BE ON RECORD THIS IS ALSO PRECESSION THAT In my mind looks like it could have originated from you. Who else. Joe smo, he makes the internet sing with bucky, thank god for Joe. My site is tops on the Excite Web Search for bucky but I would rather it be Joe, the average person can explore with ease and self articulation, the BFI site is getting better as well, The thinking out loud film was terrible. It would have been better it you did it. That is the best I can say for your thinking, as far as you alone, I see nothing wrong with mistakes as long as they are tending to subside. Good luck! If others do not like to see our disputes delete them when on screen, this is your freedom of design, take it if you need need that much freedom. The worst you can say about me as bucky taught me to see, I took drugs and i lied and was sneaking around with them and my life, I was lost. I learned to tell the truth and to stop taking drugs because they made you lie about everything. Iwas a doped up liar, I quit and I am so glad. I am an honest red neck beer drinker now and a glass of wine when I am with friends. I stole every book of Fuller's from the library in SIU in 1965 and I told Bucky and took them all back. I stole the first plan of the world game and took it back from the office. I said I was sorry, and he stated if you really are you should be forgiven. He also stated this to Ezra Pound latter in Italy. I wrote him a letter stating all that I had done, it is in the archives. He stated to me you will always be glad you wrote that letter. If you apologize for all you have done to everyone on both lists and to Allegra. You will feel what it is like to feel real precession. The unitivity type, that you know you are one with god, universe and all the moving parts of life, not separated by lies. This is the most important part of my learning that if you tell the truth the universe will love you, if you lie it will make you the most unhappy person on earth. This is what the simple truth can or can not do, this is the most obvious of all design science to tell the truth. It is not taught in any school, this is how backwards humanity is. Malthus, Darwin, economics is hide the truth and beat the other guy or kill him if this does not work, like the Mexicans were killed by the spanish or the indians were by the cowboys, it goes on for ever. When will we ever learn? Enough Already, this is not a soap box that people should feel like they are cheating others to use. they help others to do it. Please participate you others more and the isolation of this new tool will explode. Help make Fullers integrity grow it is the only chance in my mind to make the world a success for all humanity or any one person on earth. For sure in our life. time. Soon if one person will be unhappy that one person with the technology will be able to kill the world. We must make the world work for every single person that is born to come. This is the real war. The internet and giving money to causes like the world game and bfi and giving me money for the park will do this for I will spend every cent towards making the world work from my point of view. http://home.earthlink.net/~syntrivity/index.html Kirby Urner wrote: > Hey little guy, I haven't made it hard for you to post > to Synergetics-L.

Since1991, Serb dictator Slobodan Milosevic has had a green light for his bloody "Greater Serbia" adventure -- in Coratia, Bosnia, and Kosova. As EIR has pointed out repeatedly, the force behind Milosevic is not Russia, as superficial media analysis about the pan-Slavic, pan-Orthodox "brotherhood" keeps repeating. Milosevic started his career as a pro-IMF banking manager, and he was an "economic liberal," in the sense that he favored the usurious policies coming from the West. Milosevic enjoyed a close relatioship with the gang of Henry K.and Lawrence E., nd the most effective support for Greater Serbia, for examplt in Bosnia, came from intelligence officials of the British or French armies, who were sometimes labelled "traitors," but, according to experts, they were "deployed into a complex operation." Milosevic could have been stopped ,uch, much earlier. His supposed invulnerability, the image projected by the Western media of the Serb evil superman challenging the wrld, was a pathetic fraud. Milosevic was protected exactly because he was themost efficient provacateur on the market. For example, few doubt that the British officials who made sure that Milosevic could carry out his ethnic cleansing, had not fallen in love with the idea of a Greater Serbia; they were just preparing th conditions so that the "experiment" could take place. With Kosova, the the experiment had reached the critical new point. The "new NATO (see article which follows), which was prepared also starting in 1991, suddenly discovered its "humanitarian" vocation. The problem of stopping Milosevic became the ket issue. Brit.PM Tinny Blare became the most impassioned spokesman of the "humanitarian" line. His hysterical appeals ("Britain does not end at the Channel") to "fight oppression," to "stop the massacre," were braodcast while he was pusing for the deployment in Kosova of Gen.Sir Michael Jackson and hsi Rapid Reaction Corps. What the flaming "humanitarian" Blare forgot to say, is that Sir Jackson was one of the butchers of the 1972 "Bloody Sunday" in Derry, N.Ireleand, and a specialist in intelligence warfare -- including deployment of "gangs" and "countergangs" to fuel confrontation.

The new orders for military equipment and the non-appearance of any peace dividend post the Cold War proves that the prime contractor irrigation system (military Keynesianism) is still lawyer-capitalism's best answer as to how to pump the economy using government spending. Even though the USA is $5 trillion in debt (the annual surplus a mere drop in the bucket), it continues its profligate spending on killingry, and pushes very hard to get governments and military gangs (those legitimized by DC) to purchase large orders of same. In order to justify such a course, the USA needs to prove that its arsenal is an instrument of foreign policy and a vital asset on the world stage. This means bringing situations to a boiling point in critical areas where these weapons can be used. The idea is to keep the Russians compliant using loans as leverage, and to keep hatred and suspicion of the Chinese at a low boil, while meanwhile using lots of cruise missiles and bombers on TV, making the case to USA viewers that big military budgets are the way to go for the foreseeable future. In this sense, the picture has become entirely Orwellian, as the hype for military solutions feeds a mindset which sees an endless need for interventions of the military kind. Both political parties now push the same agenda, with the Democrats merely shaving a few percentage points off the Republican proposals. The driving engine of jobs jobs jobs in congressional districts where military contracting and basing continues is as powerful as ever, roaring ahead at full throttle, even though the configuration has changed (more high tech, less ground troop garrisons). The USA is a highly militarized society, verging on a police state internally, with more of its population incarcerated (percentage wise) than just about any advanced economy's. As Peter Saint James pointed out, corporate control is pretty much complete. As Medal of Freedom R. Buckminster Fuller wrote in 'Grunch of Giants': "the USA we have known is now bankrupt and extinct." The DCers are by this time mere puppets of the supranationals, and a side show used to keep the compliant and easily hoodwinked USAers believing they still have an intact democracy. One question is whether China will have the power to interrupt this vicious circle of self-fulfilling Orwellianism (I prefer that term to "military Keynesianism") or will be forced to play the game as well, bolstering its side in various hot spots around the world, guarenteeing an endless need for new hardware and military-minded men and women. Russia tried to step off the merry-go-round and is making a tough go of putting the brakes on unbridled militarism, but so far the USA has refused to follow suit and its liberalism is starting to embrace the "last/only superpower" ethos, girding itself to moralize about why these endless wars are necessary -- as usual, the middle class has little choice but to ape the corporate party line. I still think there's a chance of changing the USA's Orwellian course. My angle is to expose the weakness of the curriculum to students, so they'll learn to question the authority of grade school teachers early in life -- something with a "trickle up" effect. The math/science curriculum is especially in a shambles and exposing incompetence and/or willful misdirection is easiest in these departments. As children and younger people awaken to the fact that the adults around them are planning a very ugly and militarized future for them, they may opt out. But then, this is always the hope. It usually turns out that we save only barely enough souls to keep from destroying the planet altogether, and then the next cycle begins. One wonders if God needs high drama and suspense just to stay amused, or whether our planet is rather in the hands of a devil, Christ Jesus being one who worked galliantly to save us from ourselves (many say we're already saved, but if that's true, why do we make this such a hell hole I wonder?).

The new orders for military equipment and the non-appearance of any peace dividend post the Cold War proves that the prime contractor irrigation system (military Keynesianism) is still lawyer-capitalism's best answer as to how to pump the economy using government spending. Even though the USA is $5 trillion in debt (the annual surplus a mere drop in the bucket), it continues its profligate spending on killingry, and pushes very hard to get governments and military gangs (those legitimized by DC) to purchase large orders of same. In order to justify such a course, the USA needs to prove that its arsenal is an instrument of foreign policy and a vital asset on the world stage. This means bringing situations to a boiling point in critical areas where these weapons can be used. The idea is to keep the Russians compliant using loans as leverage, and to keep hatred and suspicion of the Chinese at a low boil, while meanwhile using lots of cruise missiles and bombers on TV, making the case to USA viewers that big military budgets are the way to go for the foreseeable future. In this sense, the picture has become entirely Orwellian, as the hype for military solutions feeds a mindset which sees an endless need for interventions of the military kind. Both political parties now push the same agenda, with the Democrats merely shaving a few percentage points off the Republican proposals. The driving engine of jobs jobs jobs in congressional districts where military contracting and basing continues is as powerful as ever, roaring ahead at full throttle, even though the configuration has changed (more high tech, less ground troop garrisons). The USA is a highly militarized society, verging on a police state internally, with more of its population incarcerated (percentage wise) than just about any advanced economy's. As Peter Saint James pointed out, corporate control is pretty much complete. As Medal of Freedom R. Buckminster Fuller wrote in 'Grunch of Giants': "the USA we have known is now bankrupt and extinct." The DCers are by this time mere puppets of the supranationals, and a side show used to keep the compliant and easily hoodwinked USAers believing they still have an intact democracy. One question is whether China will have the power to interrupt this vicious circle of self-fulfilling Orwellianism (I prefer that term to "military Keynesianism") or will be forced to play the game as well, bolstering its side in various hot spots around the world, guarenteeing an endless need for new hardware and military-minded men and women. Russia tried to step off the merry-go-round and is making a tough go of putting the brakes on unbridled militarism, but so far the USA has refused to follow suit and its liberalism is starting to embrace the "last/only superpower" ethos, girding itself to moralize about why these endless wars are necessary -- as usual, the middle class has little choice but to ape the corporate party line. I still think there's a chance of changing the USA's Orwellian course. My angle is to expose the weakness of the curriculum to students, so they'll learn to question the authority of grade school teachers early in life -- something with a "trickle up" effect. The math/science curriculum is especially in a shambles and exposing incompetence and/or willful misdirection is easiest in these departments. As children and younger people awaken to the fact that the adults around them are planning a very ugly and militarized future for them, they may opt out. But then, this is always the hope. It usually turns out that we save only barely enough souls to keep from destroying the planet altogether, and then the next cycle begins. One wonders if God needs high drama and suspense just to stay amused, or whether our planet is rather in the hands of a devil, Christ Jesus being one who worked galliantly to save us from ourselves (many say we're already saved, but if that's true, why do we make this such a hell hole I wonder?).

Some 100,000 refugees will be taken in by Europeans. And some 20,000 to the US and Canada. The tent/ monolithic idea sounds appealing in that it would create a more permanent shelter. Another more sophisticated proposal might be a complete set up shelter with water purification etc. so the refugee camps don't suffer the usual problem of the spreading of disease. The latest stuff about donations is that the powers that be would like people to donate money in lew of stuff from their garages. I don't think the refugees would really have a problem with pitching in to do any labor that might be needed it's that with travelling the distances some of them had to travel and the violent uprooting of them that occured, they may be physically and emotionally exhausted for awhile. ========================================================================= Date: Mon, 5 Apr 1999 13:51:35 -0600 Reply-To: List for the discussion of Buckminster Fuller's works Sender: List for the discussion of Buckminster Fuller's works From: Mark Somers Subject: Tiger Team MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit I'd also like to note that the time and materials to create the dome shelters need not be without compensation.

It's going to take a lot of effort to house all those people...not to mention a lot of money. This is probably why "tent cities" are so popular for this type of application. They're temporary...just where and when they're needed...and they don't ruin the land in the process. They're pretty cheap too. Come to think of it, why would someone want to relocate "permanently" into a refugee camp? (granted, it could be arranged to make nice neighborhoods, etc, but they usually aren't) >The tent/ monolithic idea sounds appealing in that >it would create a more permanent shelter. But...where to put this permanent structure? >Another more sophisticated proposal might be >a complete set up shelter with water purification etc. >so the refugee camps don't suffer >the usual problem of the spreading of disease. Well, step one is to get them out of the elements, and provide some basic human desires, esp. privacy. Domes and/or tension tents would supply this part very efficiently. Step two is to provide an infrastructure...water purification, etc, which could easily be communal. That would be a single "unit" brought in to service a neighborhood...same for toilet facilities, let's face it. A porta-potty (chemical toilet) could suffice...2 or 3 of them could probably service a small "neighborhood" in an emergency situation. Minimal environmental impact. >The latest stuff about donations is that the powers that >be would like people to donate money in lew of stuff >from their garages. Well, if a manufacturer donated 10,000 big tent units, I doubt they'd turn them down. Similarly, a communal dome or tensile pavillion would be cheap and easy to erect. Again, the monolithic stuff can use local concrete and labor...and build a huge structure capable of servicing a LOT of refugees. Check out http://www.monolithicdome.com for the basic info on their process. (inflating a balloon is pretty easy!!!)

From what I've seen on the news a few hosipitals are needed now, as well as center too organize. The stay could be longer than temporary. I'm thinking about a year, if not longer. In some cases I'm betting that some if not the majority of young Albanians might not at all be interested in returning espicially after what they've just gone through. To me it sounds like the Serbs are hunkering down for a long war. The Albanian refugees are/were the majority population. That's why the high numbers of them. Charles, a donation of some thousands of tents would more than likely be excepted. I think the people involved in transportation just don't want some of the junk that was being donated during the Honduras emergency. But even then they were having problems with delivering bottled water that was being donated. People chipping in and purchasing an onsite water purification system would seem to make more sense than buying gallon jugs of water and donating them. The cost of transport alone would be greater than the cost of the water to begin with. I noticed your concern with environmental impact Charles I agree that done correctly there should be little impact. ========================================================================= Date: Tue, 6 Apr 1999 18:27:36 +0000 Reply-To: List for the discussion of Buckminster Fuller's works Sender: List for the discussion of Buckminster Fuller's works From: Paul Taylor Subject: free computers Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Hi, I just received this message, and thought it might interest list-members.

Is it a designated "permanent" refugee camp, or is it an area that was seized and put to use? If it's public land, I assume that its destruction would be distasteful.

MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Brian it's really great that you can read stuff that gives a glimpse of the behind the scenes going ons as far has who may or may not be pulling the power strings and at times you've even implied that Fuller really didn't know what he was talking about. I think you miss the point entirely. As Hugh Kenner has pointed out Fuller made up very believable and rational scenarios but mostly to keep the revelent points of his hypothosis in an easily rememberable mythology. Power is a tangible thing that changes hands and Fuller's main point in that aspect was to pass on the torch, so to speak to the populace at large; more so probably that the torch of power be taken to the populace, by means of understanding the main springs of power; and that is technology. So although on La Rouches pages there are technology oriented articles what's not on La Rouches pages is that technology is the ultimate power. Which is obvious because that would suggest a higher power than La Roach. So clever guys come and go but the power never wavers since the real power on Earth political etc. is technology. The real tree huggers are more powerful than any politician because the real huggers of trees know the intricate and extraodinary technology called nature. A tree will tell you how to get to Mars or kill every Serbian. A tree makes more of an impact than the IMF, Hitler, blowjobs in the white house or even the models in Sports Illustrated's Swimsuit edition. Althouth the swimsuit models do come in a really nice close second. -----Original Message----- From: Brian Hutchings Newsgroups: bit.listserv.geodesic To: GEODESIC@LISTSERV.ACSU.BUFFALO.EDU Date: Thursday, April 08, 1999 3:48 AM Subject: Re: Monetary Orwellianism (was: QE2 saves the day!) ><> Brian Hutchings 08-APR-1999 3:51 > r001806@pen2.ci.santa-monica.ca.us > oops. > > <> Brian Hutchings 06-APR-1999 17:17 > r001806@pen2.ci.santa-monica.ca.us > > correction: in the following, I meant, not "whe's", > but "She's holding that, two, in trust for them!" > > thus saith: > <> Brian Hutchings 06-APR-1999 16:49 > r001806@pen2.ci.santa-monica.ca.us > > the primary difference between the outlooks > of Orwell and Keynes, as contemporaries, is that > one is a Lord of the Realm, the other a Subject; > there are no Citizens in the Commonwealth -- > whe's holding that, two, in trust for them! > > --The End Was Nigh! > http://www.tarpley.net/bush23.htm > > --RAA20886.923444247/pen2.ci.santa-monica.ca.us-- > ========================================================================= Date: Thu, 8 Apr 1999 09:22:15 -0400 Reply-To: List for the discussion of Buckminster Fuller's works Sender: List for the discussion of Buckminster Fuller's works From: David Anderson Subject: Constructing Geodesic Patch Surfaces, Part III MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary="----=_NextPart_000_0004_01BE81A1.4A9D67A0" This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ------=_NextPart_000_0004_01BE81A1.4A9D67A0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable The final installment of the series, includes patch patterns for the = first five frequency geodesics for the tetrahedron, octahedron, and = icosahedron.

So I lied about it that whole time and that hurt me more than the grass. All my friends lied as well and I do not have friends that smoke now or I try to drop them if I can.

Here is an excerpt from my new web site, which I finally got up, after several years delay. There are also articles about "Geodesic Dome Education" as well as "Carbon 60" . Bill Lauritzen http://Earth360.com Tell your friends, link up. I'm still expanding the site. Send feedback. Atlantis Introduction: Continent Lost The story of Atlantis is one of the strangest, most mysterious, and most bizarre stories in the history of civilization. A famous Greek philosopher, Plato, who was a student of Socrates, wrote, in only twenty-some pages (see the appendices), about a continent which he called Atlantis. Plato was perhaps one of the most brilliant minds in history. He helped to lay the foundation of Euro-American philosophic thought, and his works are still studied today after 2300 years. Plato described a marvelous civilization that in just one day was destroyed. This civilization had a main city with a royal palace made of ivory, gold, and silver. This city also had bridges, canals, harbours, ships, fountains, many temples, baths, and a track for racing horses. However, Plato says that afterwards there occurred violent earthquakes and floods; and in a single day and night of misfortune ... the island of Atlantis ... disappeared into the depths of the sea. Whether Plato s story was fact or fiction, or some combination of these, has been a intense topic of debate ever since Plato wrote the story. He is the only source of information about Atlantis. Therefore, strictly speaking, Atlantis is not folklore. In my opinion, Plato s description of this wonderful place, was probably part fact, part fiction. In other words, Plato was attempting to describe an ideal city-state, but he did draw on historical material. The Occult and Atlantis The Western reader has possibly had some exposure to Atlantis by way of TV documentaries, or one of the many books on the subject. There is often mention of Alien visitations, nuclear power, flying ships, genetic manipulation, and past lives. Unfortunately, in order to get temporarily higher ratings, the TV producers emphasize these bizarre or occult phenomenon. Wherever there is lack of any firm evidence or firm knowledge, this is ripe ground for growing unsubstantiated and bizarre beliefs. In other words, since no one seems to know where Atlantis really is, why not just channel the information from an extraterrestrial source? Who can disprove you? Or go into a trance state and contact your own past life in Atlantis. Again, who is to say you are wrong? Originally, I was open to some parts of this occult aspect. I waded through many volumes of occult books in order to try to find something of value. I found a lot of hope and a lot of hype, but no firm evidence. The occult can be seductive, intoxicating, and exhilarating. But reality often isn t. And intoxication is toxic. To me the occult sort of represents the brainstorming function of society. In the occult, any and all ideas are accepted as valid. Then it is up to the scientists to winnow out the real and the good from the pure flights of fantasy. So oddly enough, this brainstorming may be a valuable and necessary function. Unfortunatetly, some people never look at the conclusions of science which would allow them to leave the speculation behind. The serious researcher gets sick of hearing about these bizzare elements and refuses to deal with them. Science I realize that science is not perfect. It can be stultifying or resistant to change. It functions, like all of us, within a political context. It encourages compartmentalization of knowledge, so that frequently, no one looks at the big picture or combines several disciplines together. Graduates students frequently turn out mediocre dissertations that are, at best, moping up a field that was created long before by an innovative thinker. In its favor, it probably needs to be resistant to change or every new, half-baked idea would gain acceptance. Atlantis Time Line Here are a few important events from the occult, the scholarly, and the scientific, along with my comments: 7 560 BC: according to Plato, a famous Greek statesman, Solon, visits Egypt and hears from the priests at Sais, then the capital of Egypt, the story of an ancient civilization that was destroyed 9000 years earlier. 7 360 BC: Plato first writes Solon s story and calls the civilization Atlantis. 7 300 BC-100 AD: various classical Mediterranean authors such as Crantor, Strabo, Diodorus Siculus, Pliny the Elder, and Plutarch mention Atlantis. Belief in the lost continent is divided. 7 1553: a Spaniard, Francesco Lopez de Gomara, makes the suggestion that Atlantis was in America. However, as you will see, in many ways America does not match the description given by Plato. 7 1860: Abbe Brasseur de Bourbourg, a French scholar, travels through middle America for many years. He feels that Mayan glyphs document the volcanic destruction of Atlantis. I think Brasseur was partly right about the Mayan glyphs documenting a destruction, but I do feel that this was the destruction of Atlantis. I feel it was the destruction of local villages and cities in Mayan America. 7 1879: famous Mayan archeologist, Edward Herbert Thompson, defends the idea that the Maya were descendants of an Atlantean race. (Of course, if Atlantis was the first civilization, or first place that Homo sapien evolved, then all civilizations would be descendants of Atlantis.) 7 1880s-1890s: Augustus Le Plongeon publishes Sacred Mysteries Among the Mayans and Quiches (1886) and Queen Moo and the Egyptian Sphinx (1896) after ten years of study in the Yucatan with his wife. He claims that Egyptian civilization, as well as all other civilizations, came from the Mayan. He states that Queen Moo was originally from Atlantis (which Le Plongeon calls Mu and situates in the Atlantic Ocean), but when Queen Moo seeks refuge there, she finds it gone, and goes on to Egypt were she was known as Isis and founded the Egyptian civilization. Le Plongeon s work is interesting, but he made some fundamental errors. We shall see that Atlantis was probably not in the Atlantic. Although there may have been limited contact between Egyptian and Mayan cultures, a point that has yet to be firmly proved, it appears that the two cultures evolved largely separately. 7 1883: Ignatius Donnelly, a former member of the US Congress writes Atlantis: the Antediluvian World, a popular book which went through fifty editions and is still in print after 100 years. He claims Atlantis was the source of all cultures of the world. Many scientists call his approach slanted and find technical errors in his work. Donnelly was a lawyer and took a lawyer s approach to his writing. Instead of presenting the pros and cons, he stated all the pros only. We shall see that his location for Atlantis was probably wrong. Whether different cultures developed independently or by diffusion is a hotly debated question. I tend to think there were certain minute amounts of diffusion. 7 1880s: Madam Blavatsky, sometimes called the Grandmother of the New Age movement, includes Atlantis in her occult and bizarre reconstruction of history. For example, because of humanities widespread preoccupation with dragons, she believes that humans existed at the time of the dinosaurs. In 1908, Rudolf Steiner continues with his bizarre version of Atlantis. He eventually breaks away from Blavatsky, and forms his own schools. Today, they are known as Waldorf schools. 7 1909: In an anonymous letter to the London Times, classical scholar K. T. Frost points out similarities between the Mediterranean culture of Crete (also known as Minoan after King Minos who lived on Crete) and Plato s Atlantis. Although there are similarities, Plato s description of Atlantis does not match well that of ancient Crete. 7 1930s: Edgar Cayce becomes famous in the US for going into a trance and then prescribing remedies for ill people. During these trance states he sometimes mentions living in Atlantis in a past life. He predicts that a mysterious Hall of Records will be found near the Sphinx describing Atlantis. He also predicts Atlantis would rise again from the ocean. He makes mostly bizarre guesses that are often interpreted by followers as somehow correct. For example when certain symmetrical rocks, probably natural formations called beach rocks, were found near Bihimi Island in the Bahamas, followers claimed that these were evidence of Atlantis rising again. 7 1931: author James Churchward writes, The Lost Continent of Mu. He claims to have seen sacred tablets in India which described the creation of the world and the lost continent which he calls Mu. He places Mu in the Pacific. His work seems to be largely derived from that of Le Plongeon. No one ever saw these ancient tablets, and people wonder if they really ever existed. Although interesting to read, his work remains in the category of questionable speculation. 7 1939: a Greek archeologist, Spyridon Marinatos, suggests that the destruction of the island of Thera (near Crete and now part of Greece), in 1500 BC, and the resulting tsunami was what caused the collapse of the Minoan civilization. In 1950 he suggests the Atlantis myth derives from this event. His paper is not published in English until 1969. Many modern scientists accept Thera as a possible Atlantis, however, we shall see that Plato s description is not a good match with Thera. 7 1954: L. Sprague de Camp first publishes Lost Continents, a Dover classic. However, De Camp is probably better known for his science fiction writing about Conan: the Barbarian. De Camp is a firm skeptic when it comes to Atlantis. He flatly states that Plato made up the story. Interestingly, he also says that Wagner s Continental Drift Theory is very doubtful. (A 1970 edition, however, corrected this statement.) 7 1973: Geologist Dorothy Vitaliano writes Legends of the Earth and includes a chapter on Atlantis. She correctly points out that there is nowhere in the Atlantic ocean that Atlantis could have existed. An excellent scientific book, even though somewhat dated geologically. 7 1974: James Bramwell writes Lost Atlantis, perhaps one of the most rational and balanced accounts of the controversy ever published. Though parts of it are dated, his book often amazes one with in its insight and depth. 7 1975: Indiana University hosts a panel discussion Atlantis: Fact or Fiction, including several notable scholars. While most of them dismiss the Atlantis story as pure fiction, John V. Luce (Professor of Classics, Dublin University) presents the view, which I agree with, that Plato s Atlantis story is part fiction, part fact, and based on ancient legends. 7 1960s-1970s: seismologist A. G. Galanopoulos, another Greek, also tries to link Atlantis to the volcano on the island of Thera. He claims that an error in translation made all numbers in Plato s text multiplied by 10, and that this is why Thera is ten times smaller than Plato described.. This ten error has been effectively refuted by some scholars (Vitaliano, Luce). Also, there are many other mismatches between Thera and Atlantis (Pointed out nicely by Vitaliano). 7 1992-present: William Lauritzen, the author of this text, based on his study of oceanography, geology, mythology, and religion, develops and presents the idea that periodic massive explosion-eruptions of the volcano Krakatau, on the Sunda Shelf between Sumatra and Java, may have developed into the legend that eventually became the Atlantis story. Mr. Lauritzen first publicly stated his hypothesis on a newsgroup in 1995. I do not attempt to cover all the vast previous literature on Atlantis. That would require a separate book and I feel has been done adequately by other authors. One of the functions of this book is not to state the problem, but to state a possible solution to the mystery of the location of the lost continent. The many suggestions for this location include (but are not limited to): an island-continent in the Atlantic, North Africa, America, Crete, Carthage, Spain, South Africa, Malta, Central France, Tunisia, the Arctic, the Netherlands, Palestine, Nigeria, North Sea, Mexico, Greenland, Brazil, West Indies, Sweden, Morocco, Great Briton, and recently, unbelieveably, Antarctica and Peru. However, probably none of these are correct. As I said, Plato s Atlantis may have been PART FACT--PART FICTION. Where it was located? is the question we will now discuss. Continent Found? ****** As we stood at the base of one of the world s most deadly volcanoes, our guides tried to talk us out of going any further. The language was difficult to understand, but the message was clear. They had just brought us across a 5-hour stretch of ocean in an old fishing boat, but they knew that to go further was to risk their own lives as well as ours. Ahead, there were no plants or animals. Just boulders and rocks. Scattered here and there amidst the boulders were vents, emitting poisonous sulfur gas from the inside of the volcano. This dragon was sleeping now, but a few years ago it had taken the lives of several Americans. Just over 100 years ago, in a fit of rage, it had exploded violently and the resulting tidal wave had killed over 36,000. Our small expedition was composed of two Dutch, two Danish, two French, and myself, the American. I had chartered the boat from a small fishing village to the north and managed to gather together these others to help with the cost. We all hesitated for a moment, then four of us went on without the guides or the others. The guides knew there was nothing they could do to stop us. They told us to be back in an hour, probably hoping to minimize our exposure to the volcano. In the heat of the equatorial sun, we hiked up the lunar-like terrain .... ========================================================================= Date: Sun, 18 Apr 1999 16:19:11 -0700 Reply-To: List for the discussion of Buckminster Fuller's works Sender: List for the discussion of Buckminster Fuller's works From: Joe S Moore Subject: GEOSCOPE MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Beautiful color pic of RBF's Geoscope at Southern Illinois Univ-Edwardsville: http://www.siue.edu/PHOTO/rel.html Joe S Moore mailto:joemoore@cruzio.com Buckminster Fuller Virtual Institute http://www.cruzio.com/~joemoore/ ========================================================================= Date: Sun, 18 Apr 1999 18:40:29 GMT Reply-To: List for the discussion of Buckminster Fuller's works Sender: List for the discussion of Buckminster Fuller's works From: CHICAPEA99 Organization: AOL http://www.aol.com Subject: HI we need help for a project Hello, My name is Rosemary, I am in 7th grade, I am doing a math project with 2 of my friends we are bulidg a geodesic dome, It is located in Epcote Center, Disney World in flordia.

Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Mime-Version: 1.0 I now have three persons that are interested in putting together a syndicate of interest in making my dome that I bought from bucky and anne into a park. I want to get a measly 54K for the property. If we can have 5 persons at 11K we have a park for the year 2000 and 105th birthday for bucky and anne's anniversary for marriage as well. It is 100 percent tax deductible to give this money to cauldwell banker who will take the money and make the title change over to the persons initiating this great deed. I will donate 4,000 dollars of the 54 and supervise the closing costs and all money not used for closing will be put towards the restoration of the dome for the persons donating the funds. They will be the owners. After this happens the dome will be put onto the historical registry of Carbondale I have already receive the papers to do this once. Once this is done the dome will apply for a historical state registry inwhich is an easy OK because The National Trust of Historical Preservation has stated long ago that they would accept this as a very important National Monument. The tax deduction after only the registry to the Carbondale list for historical property will be a shoe in and will increase the tax deduction a great deal for the donors whom would then donate the property of Bucky and Anne Fuller for the R. Buckminster and Anne Hewlett Fuller Memorial Fullerene Park THE DOME WILL BE A BREAD AND BREAKFAST PLACE FOR THE CITY AND ANOTHER BUILDING IS PLANNED TO BE FOR EXHIBITS NEXT TO A LARGE OPEN PARK THAT WOULD BE THE WHOLE PARK. To see a map made by the city see my site. http://home.earthlink.net/~syntrivity/index.html YOUR MONEY WILL BE GIVEN TO CALDWELL BANKER AND YOU WILL OWN THIS YOURSELF. You may all decide what you want to do. You will be given a plaque for yourself, invitation for the dedication on Bucky's birthday on July 4, 2000 and a large tax deduction when the appraisal increases with the new registry of Historical significance. This is not a scam or a tax dodge it is a real great thing to do for the city of Carbondale and for humanity to see how humble a home this great man owned and wrote the greatest books and ideas for humanity ever conceived. The dome is a 3 frequency icosa cap dome, it is the same as a C 60 , bucky ball, carbon fullerene molecule named after bucky, The town is called Carbondale this is a real chance to see a very mysterious truth end with a good deed, yours to the first geodesic dome of the inventor of the geodesic dome and the only hope for your children in this world, that to celebrate this man will allow a future for everyone and he is the only one. No other plans have been made to make the world work for all humanity to be a success. Only this celebration for this humble dome can start the new century off with a celebration that will allow the world to see the news that this park is commemorated to the future to make the whole world a park for all humanity to live in by using the war, money for livingry. This plan has already been signed on to by the city of carbondale it is ripe and there is no blocks except some work on the dome and fence and the paper work. The taxes are 1400 per year and insurance is 360 dollars per year. It is now rented for 600 per month. The UNIVERSITY of SOUTHERN ILLINOIS has a new Chancellor and Preservation is a high priority in the new mind set. Please help make this happen to help bring attention for all mankind's options.

Mitchell owner of bucky and anne's home please help and give me 57K dollars to make the Bucky and Anne Fuller, Fullerene Park in Carbondale. http://home.earthlink.net/~syntrivity/index.html We all hope to have the park dedicated July 4, 2000. This is the memorial of bucky and anne passing into the no more second hand god omni directional halo. It would be the 83 anniversary of their wedding. I am sure that Allegra would dedicate it, with the first lady and the president if ask. I would be bucky's 114 birthday and Anne's 115 birthday. These are precessional facts of the earth going around the sun, the fact that we all go around the sun together makes the point that we are all one on one space ship earth and the captains and first mates cabin is in Carbondale Illinois in the exact center of the USA and the fly bridge if you look at my site you will see bucky and anne in the library fly bridge where the first world man couple started world game to help make all humans rights the fact of design on on little planet of the apes. Please help make this humble dome home the first historical property and home that is the same as a C60 bucky ball in design. It is a carbon molecule in Carbondale. On a little planet that has a lot of monkeys that have a lot of carbon in them. Please give me 57K tax deductible to donate this dome to Carbondale as a monument against war and to make the world work park. Thank you for your gracious time. Michael S. Mitchell owner of the first dome home of Bucky and Anne Fuller the world man team first on earth. To make the world work starts with one little dome home. The origin of the idea of world game was here as well as the home of the captain of space ship earth. The captains cabin. Call me trim tab, call the dome home the captains cabin of Space ship earth. The is the real Hugh dome. This is the manger of domes, the home of R. Buckminster Fuller and most of all his angel wife, the greatest inspiration that is over looked in Fuller's life, his wife, the one that without he would have never been know to exists. HE WAS HERE BECAUSE OF HER ONLY. She is the reason we all are here to think of him. God bless her. Michael S. Mitchell Thank you Joe for making so much information available while the great BFI gets their site moving. They are on the move so watch out Joe here they come. God Bless!

Build Democracy > Stabilize Population? Even Fuller pointed out that the planet could support at least double the population. And what's with the emphasis on Aids? What about the epidemic called violence? And why only control Aids, why not eliminate it? Numbers 6 and 7 are basically the same thing not to mention (but I will) that in pursuit of 6 and 7 you'll find a lot of the environmental stuff will get handled. Another inconsistency is priority. An example is; refugee stuff is now an emergency building democracy is a long term thing and democracy isn't built but it evolves, well except in the U.K. And lastly, if I mght add, communication is most probably priority numero uno. And cumminication isn't even on the list. Retire Nations debts? Uncle Brians global cabal conspiracy research would colapse and he would then be left with no other option but to hang out on UFO web sites. ========================================================================= Date: Fri, 30 Apr 1999 08:29:46 -0700 Reply-To: List for the discussion of Buckminster Fuller's works Sender: List for the discussion of Buckminster Fuller's works From: "P.
