The bane of our existence -PASSWORDS.
They get longer every year. There is no replacement on the horizon.
In the future they will be everywhere. Life Support becomes life

There are "extra" senses that humans are not in tune with. One of these we know as "magnetic fields." Animals can sense and use and navigate by the earths magnetic fields yet we look at theses animals and there is no organ no orifice, nothing can we find that facilitates this amazing function. We are totally clueless. Only certain animals can do this, the others don't go around saying they can. Only humans do that. If artificial intelligence tunes into this before we get to it first it can spin us in a way that we won't know that we don't know. Are we locked in or locked out? (TMS) Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation. It uses targeted magnetic fields to stimulate specific areas of the brain. It is a FDA approved noninvasive treatment that is used to treat Depression. There could be a whole bunch of stuff out there that uses magnetic fields or some other obscure range of signals that affect our organic arrangement. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||

What Do You Want in Life, Power? or Predictability? |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||
"How To Predict The Future," by Chris Carter is a
story that goes deep into the perception of who you are and how
you see the world around you. What do you want in life, Power? Or
Predictability? Power sounds good but it's not predictable. With
predictability you get power for free, two for one. Power is about
obstacles, predictability is all about which "paths" to take. When
you're born the template you're given is "Me against the World."
That's only half the equation. The other half is You against You.
It's not a battle. It's a Communication that puts you on a path.
Power leads to always wanting (needing) more. The less predictability you have the more power you need. |

This is a How-To manual with an adventure. When I joined the Army
in 1979 there were no computers. Sure they had some IBM/s as big as
your living room less powerful than a cell phone. It was paper punch
cards in the office. 40 years later, I went from Caveman to
Rocketman. The Cold War from the Berlin Wall to the Firewall. Any
one day can alter your life forever. Read a short excerpt from this
40 year journey - How
To Join The Army Excerpt |

What is health? We are told and sold that it is some sort of
balance or optimization of a state of physical, mental and social
well-being. In other words it is whatever the current generation
says it is. It’s changed more in the last 50 years than in the past
5000 years. Life expectancy suddenly doubled and tripled since 1900.
This new longevity has given Health Care a value it never had. This value itself has become a hazard to your Health. Who knew, don't we have enough problems already. This sudden change after 30,000 years how could humans be ready for this? I don't think we are. I created a algorithm called, "Total Health Defense." It's based on Jeet Kune Do as a personal form of health. I can demonstrate it for me. Only you can know you and what is health. I’m not trying to define it I’m trying to defend it. It’s up to you to define your own health. This is "Health Defense." You need to hack into YOU before somebody else does. It's called cognitive literacy and it's not taught in school. Why is it too controversial to "know" your own Self? If you can't talk to you how can anybody else? In the digital age oh you will be talked to, and not necessarily in your best interest. Power is about external control. Predictability is about inner discipline. If you won the lotto sure you could bypass discipline but if you control you no need to. If you don't know you then power is a panacea. Or is it a placebo? In 1776 when Thomas Jefferson wrote The Declaration of Independence the idea that you own your own Happiness was considered new and radical. If we never knew we were created equal, with a right to life, liberty and happiness what we were thinking all the previous centuries before 1776? It was ghosts and subjugation that ruled the night. Removing logic from our sight. Primal fear kept things black and white. Now we decide which is right, .. and which is an illusion. |

By 1990 MTV was at it's peak. The record companies were not happy
making expensive music videos and MTV wouldn't play them. So they
came to us. We would interview the band, play their videos, and off
they would go to do their Show. It was an exciting time. I remember
in 1992 thinking Radiohead is just another band. Not even they knew
what was in store for them. Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, Alice In Chains,
were brand new acts. It wasn't just Grunge, we did the first three
Lollapaloozas. Ministry and Nine Inch Nails were killin' it. Bjork
was still in the SugarCubes. Toad The Wet Sprocket, Liz Phair, They
Might Be Giants, Tori Amos and the Lilith Fair Bands, so many great
artists we got to talk to. I remember Jeff Buckley his Interview, his acoustic performance in our Studio, and his concert we did at the Metro. I thought this guy is going places. Something about him. Everybody could see, it was obvious. Next thing I know, only three years later he's gone. Michael Hutchence, Joey Ramone, two other greats that visited us and are no longer here. Right after Frank Zappa died sons Ahmet and Dweezil visited us for one of my favorite interviews. John Lydon aka Johnny Rotten made me nervous. Midnight Oil, Kate Bush, Morrisey, many more. It was the last days of the radio and record industry as we knew it. I didn't know it. MTV died. Then the internet came, Ones and Zeros were taking over, Star Wars movies went digital, everything changed forever. We are the last generation in human history to touch up against the analog world. After us it's gone. Eventually digital will be gone in the sense it will be automatic, part of the woodwork. We will go back to analog in a way we never knew. Everything will be analog organic algorithms and they will look back at us as "the great transition period." |

Hope is like a path in the countryside. At first there is no path, but if enough people walk in the same direction, the path appears. - Poet Lu Xun |
