Speaker 1 (00:00):
Now here's a highlight from Coast to Coast AM on iHeartRadio.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
Man, welcome back to Coast to Coast. George Nori with you,
Nick Beggot's with us. Nick, Let's get back into the
quantum computing. Where are we as a nation competitively in
the computer world.
Speaker 3 (00:16):
Well, I, you know, this is probably one of the
most important areas. I think we're right up there with
the best of the best. You know, the thing about
quantum computing again is you know what does that really
mean in terms of computing power? And you can take
the biggest computers on the world. And when I first
(00:37):
looked at this, it's been now almost fifteen eighteen years ago.
At that time, it would take a trillion years of
a supercomputer to do what a quantum computer can do
in an hour.
Speaker 1 (00:49):
Wow.
Speaker 3 (00:51):
And when you start to think about this kind of
elap whoever gets there first, there won't be any encryption,
any code that you can secure your computer with that
amount of computing power is just incomprehensible.
Speaker 4 (01:05):
When you hook that into AI and a few other things.
Speaker 3 (01:10):
In terms of technology, this changes everything about everything. This
is being pursued vigorously by every industrialized country in the world.
And again, whoever gets there first presents the biggest challenge
to everyone else. And again, I know that it's a
priority for our country, it's priority for every country that
(01:32):
has a technology base. China, Russia, Israel, the US, Great Britain, France, Germany,
I mean, all of the big powers. Japan, you know,
are looking at this in a vigorous way. Scientus from
around the world are and they're going to make the
necessary breakthroughs. There's no doubt about it, and some even
suggest that that has already happened.
Speaker 2 (01:55):
Well, we started talking with you, we talked about HARP
in the last It's now under the control of the university,
isn't that.
Speaker 3 (02:04):
Yes, it is, and you know it's transitioned from a
Navy project to a DARPA project to a private project. Yeah,
it's privately operated now in Alaska. They do work for
various government agencies and private institutions. So yes, it's still operating.
(02:25):
Yes it's still out there, but again it's kind of
been embedded in the university system. Creates a lot less
controversy for them. And I think that the big things
that military was trying to extract in terms of knowledge
were gained and they've moved on, and I think more
people have looked at this. You know, when Gene Manning
(02:46):
and I wrote Angels Don't Play This Harp and published
the first editions of that back in the early nineties.
Even today, you know, all these years later, we see
fresh reports coming out by other research essentially confirming what
we had said many many years ago. And I have
not changed my position on what it was originally intended
(03:09):
for in our initial research. We stand by it, and
it was extremely well document In fact, it was coast
to coast in Art bellback and I believe it was
ninety four. It was our first major radio show on
the subject, and Art replayed that four times that month
because it got so much attention, and those were the
(03:30):
days we did long play. I think it was either
a four it might have even been a five hour show,
but it set the tone. And now you hear a
whole lot about the things that we had talked about,
particularly in the area of weather modification as it relates
to what humans can do, and heart was one of
those technologies that we pointed out had those kinds of capabilities.
Speaker 2 (03:54):
Meteorologists are predicting that the hurricane its season this year
could be one of the worst. Are we contributing to that?
Speaker 4 (04:03):
I think it's a little bit of each, all right.
Speaker 3 (04:05):
I think that now we've also seen in the last
twenty years media reports about other countries China, Russia and
others playing with the idea of weather modification, actually testing
their technologies. The thing that people need to recognize is
that when you start messing with these systems and their
energetic systems, you change things. And in physics, the concept
(04:30):
of the butterfly effect, where a small thing in one
end of the planet can create a hurricane on the
other flapping of a butterfly's wings, for the example. When
you talk about these kinds of tools to affect weather
in one area, it's not isolated, it has everything is
connected in a profound way, and it has an effect
(04:53):
human beings. There was an experiment done actually, and it
was I'm trying to remember the name, but you probably
will when I started talking about but they had set
up these random computers around the world to try and
see what the consciousness of human beings were Doingerators, right,
(05:14):
And then they found out that human consciousness actually does influence,
or it appears to influence what's happening within the world.
And I'm not talking about smoke coming out of your
exhaust pipe. I'm talking about consciousness itself.
Speaker 4 (05:27):
And when you look at.
Speaker 3 (05:30):
This whole area and some of the best scientists and consciousness.
Elizabeth Rauscher was a dear friend of mine, passed away
a number of years ago. She had done some seminal
work in this area along with a number of others,
and published her work Consciousness embeds everything. We are active
participants in what happens around us, whether we acknowledge it
(05:51):
or not. And I think that's again, as we move
forward into this century, more is going to be learned
about this, and more is going to be learned.
Speaker 4 (05:59):
About the fact that.
Speaker 3 (06:01):
Consciousness drives it all and how we're connected to that,
I think is going to become increasingly clear, and certainly
is a separation within the science is occurring right now.
Good scientists from all over the world, the ones I've met,
and I've met many most of them have a really
deep spiritual nature because as they discover what is in
(06:27):
the universe, they discover a little bit perhaps about the
maker of the universe.
Speaker 2 (06:32):
I've been preaching for years to protect our power grid
from electromagnetic pulse e MPs. So far no administration has
jumped at it.
Speaker 3 (06:43):
This is probably again one of the one of the
big important issues. And I know, in fact, you had
a really excellent guest a number of years ago who
had published a book on the.
Speaker 4 (06:52):
Topic, Bill Bill forston Yep.
Speaker 3 (06:56):
That's it and uh and you know when you look
at the work he's done, the work others had done.
Speaker 4 (07:02):
Where did this all begin.
Speaker 3 (07:03):
It began with atomic and thermal nuclear detonations in the atmosphere,
and it was observed that it knocked out communications for
a number of hours. And this is where the thing
started in terms of what it is and what it
could do. There was actually a patent around HARP and
(07:24):
it was one of Ben Easton's patents, and it was
not so much dealing with HARP as itself, but it
was this idea that you could create an EMP if
you could create a big enough energy burst. And so
whether it was thermal nuclear above the Earth or some
other energy burst, if you could put it a thermal
(07:45):
nuclear detonation above the United States or above China, you
could knock us back into the Stone Age. I mean,
you basically knock out every electromagnetic circuit, these fine circuits
that run all of our computers, telephones, everything in the
course of that nature also has this ability that some
(08:06):
will remember stories about something happened in the eighteen hundreds
and it was later dubbed the Carrington effect, and it
was a solar flare that was so substantial it created
a current that ran through telegraph wires, electrocuting people and
creating a huge problem for telegraph operators.
Speaker 4 (08:26):
Today.
Speaker 3 (08:27):
If we had such an event, we would lose basically
the technology that we have, except that was what shielded now.
I know from a military perspective, a lot has been
done in this area to try and shield the United
States from this kind of thing. But something as simple
as a couple of car batteries with the right kind
(08:51):
of simple technology, you can even buy it at an
autopart so or you can create a localized DMP that
would cover several blocks. As an example, something like that
going off in say New York City in the middle
of the financial district would create global chaos. These are small,
the technology is flat, meaning it's widely known around the world.
(09:15):
These type of technologies are the ones that are the
most destructive and yet you don't hear a lot in
the mainstream. Electromagnetic pulses, energy weapons as a concept. We
started talking about it thirty years ago. As we look
at what's happening today, high powered lasers, microwave weapons, all
(09:39):
of these technologies have emerged.
Speaker 4 (09:42):
Most of them are still classified.
Speaker 3 (09:44):
The only time that you see them is in wartime,
and you can even I would even suggest that the
present situation in the world, both in the Middle East
and in Ukraine and Russia, weapons are being tested.
Speaker 4 (10:01):
And there used to be a concept during the Cold War.
Speaker 3 (10:04):
One of my friends was a colonel and he was
a pilot, and they used to use the phrase we
would fly into Russian airspace to scare up their defenses,
to cause them to use their defenses so they could
triangulate radar stations and locate things and know about capability.
The Russians do it to us all the time, especially
in Alaska. They come into our airspace to see what
(10:26):
our defenses are and whether we can react to them.
So in war conflicts is where new technologies are tried.
Speaker 4 (10:33):
To see what you can do.
Speaker 3 (10:34):
Think of what Israel did in the knocking out of
or actually blowing up a bunch of cell phones held
by hamas amazing.
Speaker 4 (10:44):
He is the gateway, It truly is.
Speaker 2 (10:48):
It is one of a kind, to be sure. But
the EMPs you can protect the grid and forced and
predicted it would take about two billion dollars. That's a
jump change for us nowadays.
Speaker 4 (11:04):
It is.
Speaker 3 (11:04):
In fact, it's the price if I think a modern
B one bombers somewhere in that neighborhood these days. But again,
you know, these are things that need do need to
be pursued. I can say this that there's in this
administration we may see some of that. I mean, I
know that these issues are understood by some some of
(11:27):
the people in the Congress and the US Senate, and
I would suspect that that they will be part of
the dialogue as we move forward, especially as volatile as
the world has become. The idea of an artificial MP
or a natural MP and being able to protect the
nation against those things is critical. If you think about
(11:48):
everything that we operate on now, very very few people
are self sufficient. I mean, in one hundred years ago,
ninety five percent of the people could could self sustain
with or without much of technology.
Speaker 4 (12:01):
Today that's not true.
Speaker 3 (12:03):
Technology shuts down water systems go offline, septic systems go offline,
and within forty eight hours chaos breaks out.
Speaker 4 (12:12):
So we need to be concerned.
Speaker 3 (12:14):
Emp is a natural threat and a man made threat,
and also a terrorist threat.
Speaker 4 (12:20):
The fact of the matter is.
Speaker 3 (12:23):
William Cohen that started to identify geoengineering as terrorists threats,
meaning that the technology had flattened out enough to where
the less sophisticated, the less technologically oriented governments had the
capability of developing these technologies. Nothing's changed except there's more
(12:43):
knowledge out there now than there ever was. The nature
of information is more widespread and disseminated than it ever was,
and genius comes from everywhere. There are smart people in
every part of the world. And who the universe touches
with intelligence, who God touches with intelligence.
Speaker 4 (13:03):
Is everyone and anyone.
Speaker 3 (13:05):
And this is what I would say also is people
are There's a lot of fear, fear obviously in the
world because of so much uncertainty. And what fear does
to the mind it shuts down our higher operating system
and I were to become more reactionary on an emotional level,
but also our higher ordered thinking is suspended when we're
(13:26):
in states of fear. Or intense negative emotion. So this
puts us in a frame where we can be hearded, pushed,
and manipulated much more easily in states of fear. So
conquering our own individual fear and with that gaining knowledge
suppresses fear a bit. But understanding there's a lot of
(13:48):
people that are good people scattered around the world looking
for solutions, and I think we're in the age of solutions. Yes,
we have the tensions of both extremes. I'm an optimist,
I always have been. I think we're going to come
out of this better humanity for it. But we're in
for some very very difficult times and I think we're
(14:09):
just seeing the beginnings of it.
