Think.
No, that was a casual reply, I didn't realize that you had something so specific in mind. So, what do you think or are thinking of? Please, enlighten me about your conspiracy.

Oh, yeah sure, that I can agree with. I generalize when I think the question is a general one. My mistake...

Although, the truly wealthy may have channels that are above the laws imposed on ordinary citizens or "enemies," but in the context of the "Ark" which might be a futurists social experiment, such ideas are not out of the question, at least as I see it pertaining to this example. My point being that Australia was formerly a "nuclear free" country (can't remember that exact date of its change of status, maybe some time in the eighties) and the only nuclear facilities were scientific in nature (Sydney?). The pro-nuclear status might encourage semi-private facilities, such as the "Ark" because it "incidentally" is pro-nuclear which might be an aim in itself. Projects like this are still under regulation by the government.

Yeah............. very good questions.

Depends on what the UN represents, hey.

Wasn't it understood and accepted by the founders of this forum that "going underground" was not the right path. Regardless of any personal opinion, wasn't it insinuted that the trouble makers of the future were the people who went underground .................It would take too long to look at all the vidoes again to find that statement but it was there.

Agree or don't agree with any of the future predictions, if someone who has the ear of most on this forum does an aboutface should they give you a clue as to why. No malice meant to Bill he has the right to live wherever he wants but this doesn't seem to make any logical sense based on the former ideas being presented.

Bill Ryan is just moving to Australia.
Is the Ark an underground base?


From what I have heard there are only a few who will have access to those underground bases ; the priviledged people in other words.

Robert Dean said he has a "ticket" if anything happens to hide in one of the underground bases in the USA.

The 'ARK' is a metaphor..a nickname from what I understand from Bill. It is a 'vision' as such for a future 'intentional' community. This place has the infrastructure prepared and is now at the stage of attracting interested people looking to invest.

There are many intentional communities around the world and we can all get inspiration to create our own if this is our desire.....

peace

Hey mate,

Check out her profile

Maybe you missed the part where 'her location' is stated as being " looking for somewhere in the next 12 months" or something to that accord

All the best Gordon,

Don't worry about his comments Kate, he's inclined to lose his place on the page when he forgets to take his medication.

Harper,

Extract from Bill's post at:
http://projectavalon.net/forum/showt...3374#post63374

Quote:
The 'Ark' is currently envisaged to include a shielded underground facility with hydroponics, technical and craft workshops, exercise and recreation facilities, a school, a comprehensive library, communication facilities, medical facilities, the most advanced water recycling technology, its own micro-economy and democratic structure, and (believe it or not) its own very clean mini nuclear reactor which will generate enough self-sufficient power for at least fifty years.
I think Bill and Kerry questioned the wisdom of going underground if certain
scenarios occurred.

Kevin07 wouldn't care which country is buying that stuff... I'm sure if a country paid enough $$$ Kevin07 would do just about anything! I mean just about _anything_ for more $$$. Pauline Hanson would of made a better (Prime Minister - President) then Kevin07. Atleast she couldn't make things any worse then what is already happening.

It was the Liberals (Conservative Right) who sold off government assets to begin with. The government is only a regulatory body now, I mean who owns all the utilities in AU? The Tel Co's? And who introduced statewide sponsored gambling and other mind numbing and socially degenerative institutions. Who was kowtowing to Bush as the buildings fell promising coalition support without any consultation of the people of Australia? It was certainly a stroke of genius to push a free trade agreement with the US at that time much to our detriment.

Pauline was dropped even by the Right of which she represented and was surely used, but she created even more division in labor whose constituents were immigrants or first generation immigrants because she wanted to re-enact the White Australia Policy that we exorcised in the 70's. Her popularity polls never warranted the media attention to begin with and now she's "Dancing With The Stars"--unbelievable. No failed political figure has enjoyed such media success.

She helped to serve the Liberals (Conservative Right), but her policies or lack thereof were overshadowed by the fact that she embezzled funds from her own party(!!!).

In light of this Mr. Rudd appears as a savior in this bipartisan plot.

I agree with all that you say dataeast but I doubt that gordon could understand because you use some big long words with more than two syllables.

Re the topic of nuclear power generators - man has survived on this earth for some millions of years. It has only been in the last 130 years that he has had the use of electricity.

It's a patently obvious fact then than we do not require electricity to survive. I suggest that time could be well spent in searching out information on how to do something as simple as learning to make fire without the use of matches or accelerants.

It may well be that this one ability could be the difference between survival and extinction for the human rac. Fire for warmth in cold weather, cooking food and sterilizing utensils. Not to mention keeping wild animals at bay.
