My large focus at the moment is a safe zone, and establishing this safe zone. It doesn't matter if I know what's going to happen, and I have a bunch of survival supplies if I don't know where to go.

First off, there's a rumor that the reason there are a large amount of Seven Day Adventists in Maine is because during the end of days, it is a safe haven.

Anyways, my intuition has been telling me to stay in Maine, but go North. There are two areas that have really come to my attention. The Eastern portion of the White Mountains, just across the NH border, but North of Newry, Rumford, and Sunday River. This would include the Grafton Notch and Rangeley Lakes Region. What is interesting about this, Willian Reich had his lab for some time in the Rangeley Lakes region, were he conducted his studies on Orgone, had exchanges by mail with Einstein, and even saw UFOs. There is a UFO/Conscienceness Exhibition there actually this 20th. I really wish I could attend.

The second area is Mt. Katahdin and Baxter State Park, about an hour plus North of Bangor. The area, besides hikers, is rather remote and untouched, plus its state owned. Mt. Katahdin is the tallest mountain in Maine and has some very interesting myths revolving around it from the Abeneki and Penobscots. One seems to be rather akin to the story of Jesus Christ, and another seems to portray it almost as entrance to the World Beneath (Hollow Earth). The largest known cave in Maine is also located on a remote part of Mt. Katahdin. The famous Alaghash abductions, along with another famous abduction happened not to far from this site also.

So, I was wondering if anyone would be interested in scouting out Mt. Katahdin, specifically this cave, and see if it presents us with anything. And yes, I know it's quite an undertaking. Also, I'm working a lot with my intuition here, so I recommend highly you try to do the same. It seems to be the only true thing going for me right now.
Gregor, Do you have anyone else organized to check this out? Or are you starting from scratch with just yourself? It sounds fun and totally interesting. If you wanted to go in at least 10 days from now then I would definitely be down. That hand wound I was telling you about needs to heal a bit first, but I'm 100% in. I wouldn't mind driving either. I've got a small hatchback that can fit whatever we need and is good on gas.

Are you thinking of camping out? I'd be very interested to check this cave out as well. I think tenting it and possibly having a low-key fire in the wilderness and under the stars would be rad - especially knowing that there have been UFO sightings in the area. What kind of a hike are you anticipating to get to the cave?

Have you ever read or heard any of Michael Tsarion? I think that he is right down your alley.

It's funny that you say what you have about going north if you are to stay in maine. I have been thinking the same thing, especially and obviously staying away from the coast. Your two ideas, information and incredibly similar attitude is meshing uncannily with mine. I have a good deal of survival/camping equipment on hand as well. I always keep my gas tank on full and am ready to ditch town whenever need be. I'd love to scope out a possible go-to spot with you.

I am not prepared with any of the necessary equipment to have a video conference, so you will have to count me out on that.

I think that timing and ideas are coming together in perfect time. If you're down, lets meet up some evening this week and talk.

I'm in for a video con today or tonight............I got my palbee account setup.....what service do you want to use?

Gregor, your post gave me an idea;

Given our various locations and expertise, I suggest we create sub-groups of our NewEngland Community. Volunteers Needed.

>>> Scouting Team: Those who are already in the areas most of us are interested in and have the time and resources to mount expeditions that can be video doc'd and shared with us.

>>>Resource Team: Those who find themselves in a position or profession to locate or create resources for the group effort. This can be anything from bio-fuel production, tools, information, transportation, communications, agriculture, etc.
FIND YOUR NICHE!

>>>Research Team: All the news hounds and local mythos experts can keep the rest of us up to date and informed.

>>>Special Ops Team: These can be the go-to people who have locations and resources already in place, who can help small groups in case we get caught off gaurd.


You know what........I'm gonna create a website right now where we can post these vid cons, other vids, information, etc.

Hey, tomorrow night - Monday, 10:00PM EST, how's that sound for everyone? If there's alot of people interested, I recommend we do TeamSpeak, as people with just mics can participate, and its absolutely free. It's conversation that is the most important part, and yes, more the merrier. So if you can make it & want to participate, post here, and let us know if you have either a mic or a webcam. Thanks!

To come to think of it, a permanent team speak channel for us might help out really well, as that would provide a platform for permanent continuous conversation. However, that means we'd need a permanent server.

I am in the same boat NewParadigmGuy.
Hopefully we can find a way to comm regularly.
Let me know if we can watch the conference and possibly participate. I'll do the same if I find out.

I have proposed a meeting in Manchester, NH on the evening of October 4th. So far four people have committed to coming. See post #37 in this thread.

Anybody else interested in coming?

Hello Gregor,

Just looked into teamspeak...I have a Mac (OS X) and it seems the software available is for Windows. Is this true?

Judging from the content of your posts, you are in a good place in many respects.
Peace, K

Hey Kusula. Thanks for joining us! And yes, Teamspeak has an unofficial version that supports Mac, just look on their site. I was suppose to go to a festival this 3rd-6th, but as of today, I am pretty sure we're in for a ride, so I am going to have to opt out and join the band wagon to Manchester, so yes Irving, I am back on.

I'm going to say let's try to do a teamspeak server tonight. If anyone has a really good connection, it would be great if you could host, otherwise I'll plan on hosting. I have a cable connection which will at the very best just get through with 10 connections, but really more around 5ish. Thing is this we can also use the chat, and speak mic if wanted, and we can all here.

I'll be online until 10, which is when I want to begin, so just message me if you're in. My AIM is also itEndedHere.

I found a site that can also host our teamspeak server at $0.25/slot/month and its setup absolutely immediately. I even verified it with them by e-mail, and for 20 slots it's only $5.00, so 10 slots $2.50. And it would be permanently up for the whole month.

And there's always just using a chat room too if need be, which AIM has but theres other sites too.

The server is up and currently running. You can download Teamspeak and easily connect. Just message me through Avalon or AIM for the IP address & password.

http://www.goteamspeak.com/?page=downloads

Anyone without a mic can still listen to the convo, and send text messages (chat) to all the users in the room still. Also note, most laptops do have a builtin mic on board in disguise, it's just this little hole somewhere, usually around the keyboard.

Thats terrible man. Sorry to hear that. I had a house fire last year as well. It was quite an experience. I hope that no one was injured.

The teamspeak session ended up being just myself and Arturo. I had no mic or camera and I typed while Arturo spoke into a mic. haha. It was an interesting way to try to communicate, but you didn't miss much. Perhaps sometime soon we can get a session going with more of us.

Mr. Mike, sorry to hear about the fire and I hope everyone is OK.

I had some trouble getting the Teamspeak software installed but I think it is OK now - if anyone wants to try another chat soon I'm game!

I will not be able to attend the gathering on the 4th as I am one of the hosting sites on the annual NESEA/NHSEA Green Building Open House Tour. I have Wind and Solar Electric (with battery backup) and Solar Hot Water generation systems installed here on my property. I'm about 45 minutes north of Manchester, so feel free to stop by on your way to the restaurant meeting. You can check out all of the sites on the tour at either nesea.org or nhsea.org.

Rgds,

I'm not recording anything. I was the only one with a mic, so I was lecturing for the most part, while eaglespirit and paradigm chatted back.

Hey New Paradigm Guy,

I am interested in the Oct. 4 meeting in Manchester. I'm near the VT border in southern NH. Just returned from camping in Jamaica, VT area...a scouting/recon mission to check out the area/terrain.

Reading the various posts here, I am feeling, intuiting that there are several potential safe spaces, radiant zones in the New England area...and they are most likely in and around the White and Green Mtns. Mountains are key, with us inhabiting the valleys, the niches of the ground crew. Many questions as to how we would all interconnect and network, when the infrastructure begins to shift in earnest.

I am in flux and have some definite flexibility of circumstances now. I caretake a property, six acres with a pond, surrounded by wetlands. It is very private here. It is a place where people could meet, with potential for short-term camping. I'm just throwing that into the dynamic mix for the future.

The video conferencing and teamspeak? are initial modes of communicating I suppose...I personally lean strongly towards in person meetings when the group(s) are more formed. I have to be in the presence of others to be able to deeply intuit whether there is the potential for working and preparing with others. Anyone else feel that? I'm not dissing technology, it's about looking into the eyes of another, feeling the energy fields of others.

Please let me know in a private message if the meeting Oct. 4 is going to go down.
Peace
