    Some kind of digital instrument is essential for trade in today’s world, since low-cost teleporting of coins etc. is not yet available. The fact that the oligarchs are pushing their own version of digital debt-based “money” does not mean that there cannot or should not be various types of currency in use, preferably not debt-based and including…[Read more]

    • I don’t really understand how cryptocurrencies work but my notion of a future currency system might be based on observational-windows: predict where packets of high value information might appear in the medium (strange particles or temporal alignments) then someone can monetize them. Perhaps CERN is already doing this by establishing a market in…[Read more]

    Was not especially impressed by this interview, but as they say “it takes all sorts”.

  • Frankly this “parallel currency” does not sound very convincing: it would provide no defence against a possible collapse of the euro and in the Orwellian-digital form would just be another tracking mechanism.

    • And as CAF continues to repeat (as she did in the Solari 3rd Qtr wrap-up w/JPF) bitcoin and other “fiscal digital currencies”… they are NOT currencies but more of a high risk asset that is just as inflatable as the paper fiat currencies we already have.

      • Yes. I wonder why Cliff is so High on bitcoin. He is aware of EMP, AI bots, etc.

    Very odd.

    If they simply repeat the refrain about “being tough on immigrants”, they will just prove to be the same old; if on the other hand they at least try to explain to the people the policy of weaponised migration that was pushed by Merkel, “NATO”, and, yes, a small Middle Eastern country that it is becoming against the law to criticise, this might…[Read more]

    Gosling connects the dots, reminding us that Madrid’s ruling party is super corrupt (“Barcenas scandal”) and has no qualms about using police state techniques, with the EU blessing!

  • IT’S OUT. 3rd quarter wrap-up conversation, over two hours long (Part 1) between Dr. Farrell and Catherine Austin Fitts on the members’ section of Solari.com..

    Remember that here we are in the Latin world, where unless you have some really niche skills, family connections are all important in getting a job. And in the public sector, the concept of patronage is engrained in the mentality with regard to the assignment of tenders and consultancies, even when the niceties of the law are formally respected…

    • Yes, good point. It is similar here in the Middle East. Relationships are paramount. Try to get something done without a referral or introduction of some sort and it is slow and tedious.

    Based on my experience in local politics, when lots of mayors and councillors start signing formally illegal pledges to support independence and such like, it is my suspicion that, apart from a few well-meaning individuals working for a cause and willing to pay for their commitment, “assurances” have been provided, directly or indirectly. Or am I…[Read more]

    • Maybe cynical…. but also they may see this as a way of forwarding their plans… a way to keep momentum going. After all, papers with signature can be lost, burnt, retracted, etc.

  • “Catalans proud of their banks” (Wall Street Journal). Christopher Columbus, who had connections with Genoese bankers and Pope Cybo, stayed in Barcelona. This could take us into territory discussed in Dr. Farrell’s “Thrice Great Hermetica” and of course “Babylon’s Bankers”. So we might be seeing a bankers’ war cleverly disguised in misleading…[Read more]

    “”We know from experience that international cooperation works – from reconstruction after World War II more than 70 years ago to fighting Ebola just a few years back,” IMF Managing Director Christine Lagarde told delegates representing many of the IMF’s 189 member countries.” Reference to Nazi and other mostly covert funding for reconstruction;…[Read more]

    Who could throw doubt on such a reliable source of information??

    Gatekeepers called in, but who do they think they’re kidding?

  • DanaThomas posted a new activity comment 8 years, 6 months ago

    Provenance? Who’s looking into provenance? Now authenticity of bullion is another manner…

    The term jet lag sounds much more innocent than radiation exposure.
    Anyway, flying from S.A. to Europe for example involves no or only a slight change in time zones…

    Funnily enough I have got some B3 recently.

    • For those interested, one needs the flush kind of niacin for the detox effects, not niacinimide or no-flush versions.

    I measured cabin radiation on a recent European flight using my handy compact Geiger counter, and it was around 3 microsieverts/h (background level in open country with non-volcanic soil: around 0. 05 microsieverts/h). Of course airline personnel are aware of this and I believe they sign a waiver to accept these high-ish levels. But the companies…[Read more]

    • I used to take long haul flights every six weeks from South Africa (far from many places) to Europe, US, Asia, Australia for work. All were 10+ hours. After 13 years of this my body was kaput and I quit. I think that jet lag is perhaps more about radiation exposure than time zone changes. There is some non mainstream research that shows niacin as…[Read more]

    • Dana, I have been thinking of getting a Geiger counter. Do you have any recommendation on brands.? Small is good.

    An longish discussion – but to discuss Time, you need Time…

    • In Grid of the Gods Dr.Farrell quotes Kozyrev: “In the case of Time, there also exists a variable property which can be called the density of intensity of time. In a case of low density it is difficult for time to influence the material systems, and there is required an intensive emphasis of the causal-resultant relationship in order that the…[Read more]

    All those well-meaning (and perhaps substance-using) middle class people, genuininely in favour of some kind of autonomy, all those small town mayors calling for independence (and as “martyrs” they will get re-elected!): quite impossible to imagine them manning the barricades in 1848 style.
