Juat to say - Avalon and Camelot are really interesting and not least of all USEFUL(!) resources and I do believe that they provide a valuable service also - that is why I would be happy to pay a modest subscription and also make a donation by paypal.
One other question. With all the chasing around, interviewing whitehats etc in hotel rooms etc, you both keep remarkably calm and considered and keeping a balanced view and remaining aware of the audience. I love adventure etc but, how do you do it?! is it pure belief? Adrenalin?? Do you ever figet frustrated with any setbacks etc? Also, how do you decide whether an interview is more important than another? Eg, Bill Deagles recent interview? Best wishes and a lot of respect, Last edited by eurosceptic; 11-25-2008 at 04:34 PM. |

Bill, I have a quick question regarding T1V83 and Hillary Clinton. In a post here on Avalon back in September 2008, you had this to say:

I'm relatively new on the forum but I've been following your interviews for a long time now. What struck me about you both was the committment to reveal the truth. I know how hard that can be and the opposition and attacks it can draw to you. From my spirit to yours thank you for continuing your mission.
My question is regarding a recurring vision of a solar eclipse I keep getting. Does this mean anything to either of you in regards to a possible outcome or a possible time line? |

Dear Bill and Kerry,
In what ways do your own spiritual beliefs guide your approach to these interviews, and your own intellectual digestions of what they have to say? Do you believe in an "all-powerful" NWO/Illuminati/secret society? Do you believe we are far beyond saving ourselves, and if there is still time on the clock, how does that conflict with those who openly subscribe to the belief that the PTB control everything, and that we are doomed? Kerry, do you still have the same passion for disclosure you had when you began Camelot? Bill, do you still have the same passion you had when you joined Kerry in her journey? Thanks, on a bunch of different levels, The HistoryCircus. Last edited by historycircus; 11-18-2008 at 02:28 AM. |

We DID have a warning of a possible CME (Coronal Mass Ejection) - referencing "the event of 1859" - from a well-known scientist with a Top Secret clearance, contracted to the Department of Homeland Security. But this is not the same as an eclipse, and the two do not really have any connection. Quote:
Between us, we try to ask smart, well-informed questions, and after the interviews we try to be equally smart about what we've learned. Our capacity to do that depends significantly on our knowledge base - as well as our spiritual outlook. We do think there is a NWO/Illuminati secret society which has heavily influenced world events, possibly for longer than many are prepared to believe. The evidence is overwhelming. But they may not be "all-powerful" any more. Despite the Report from Iron Mountain, and the Global 2000 report - both of which call for drastic steps to reduce world population - the population has NOT so far been reduced as planned. Using this as an obvious example, this seems to indicate that this group is not as powerful as it might have wished to be. Otherwise, they'd surely already have implemented many of their plans. If no global pandemic emerges in the next 12-18 months, I'd start to be really pretty confident that this simply will not happen. I'd say that Kerry and I still have the same passion as we had when we started. Maybe even more so: we're aware that we have a leadership role, and a huge responsibility when speaking at conferences and in radio interviews (and on forums like this) - none of which we'd anticipated when we started. Our audience is now massive, and beyond our wildest dreams when we first started out and realized that someone had actually visited our new website ![]() We're working as hard as we ever did, and if we can do our part as members of a large team (including thousands of people we do not know) to help steer the world safely into the dawn of a new age, then we'll feel that everything we've experienced has been very, very worth while.

Bill & Kerry youare fantastic and I admire the work you are continuing as I feel its only fair to say that we are all successful because we are standing on the shoulders of giants.
I have a time question. 10 years ago I was led to believe and still do the following information on which I would greatly appreciate your comments. 1. That time has effectlively ended and we are in what they described as an extended 'moment' this why why for some everything seems to have speeded up or in other circumstances slowed down. 2. Transitions have started to occur already for people of the earth and we will see big groups of people who will disappear from time to time, in various ways. 3. There are many aspects or versions of this world but principally two diverging paths, this one and another so called 'higher' one. You will stay or move depending on your ability to understand your individual nature, however neither is doomed. Some may feel this intensely and others may wake up and not know the difference. 4. As time has effectively ended we have all the ability to change or stretch or control time to change as we are currently in no-time. What do you think of any of that? Thank you again and take good care of yourselves geraldine |

Hi Bill and Kerry,
Thanks for your dedication and hearts, A main focus of a lot of peoples anxiety, is the supposed journey through the dark rift. My question is which astronomy agency data can we trust, for our true position in our galaxy? I understand and have no reason to disbelieve top whistle blowers testimony, and am so grateful to have watched and enjoyed most of your interviews, but these short reports say, that by mapping hundreds/thousands of background stars, our true position is actually North of the rift and climbing away. I know NASA are not to be trusted and as RH says 'the lies are different on every level, so my question is.. who do we trust for a true galactic position? here are short links with an official interpretation of the data. Ill understand if you have no time to read them and MUST! thank you again for your great services to us all. ![]() ![]() According to this study, conducted by Humphreys and Larsen, Dept. of Astronomy, University of Michigan, 1995; the sun is approximately 20.5pc above the galactic plane. This is equivalent to 63.6 light years. http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/1995AJ....110.2183H A more recent study by Reed of Dept. of Physics, Alma College using parallax measurements from OB stars, confirmed and refined, Humphreys, et al by concluding 19.5pc. http://arxiv.org/ftp/astro-ph/papers/0507/0507655.pdf Edited: you know what forget it, your busy and i get my answers elsewhere anyways, i still worry on the 19.5 energetics we are entering and probably dont need your help so wont waste your time.

I had an abduction experience in 1981, followed by some other very weird events, and that totally changed everything. Many other members will resonate with that and understand totally. "Quote from Bill Ryan post in this thread"
I copy/pasted that from one of your replies....I never knew this about you Bill. I would love to know more about it. Also, I know you and Kerry give interviews and would love it if ,wherever possible, you guys could post them on Camelot. I don't know if you realize this but your interview from 2006 is very hard to find (the one where Kerry interviewed you about Serpo) The paranexus radio interview really filled in some gaps...I bet other interviews would do this as well. While we all understand that Camelot is about the interviewees....The insights and opinions of both you and Kerry are very important (to me atleast) and are very helpful. If it is feasible, I would be delighted to hear any interviews that the two of you give. Warmest wishes-Francie Jones |

Hey Bill and Kerry I am really into your forum lately as you may have noticed! The people here are just interesting to interact with you attract interesting people i don't mean to be a pain.
This thread is a big task to try and make a dent in it while you have spare time is admirable and so is the willingness to clarify and listen to others all the time you guys are open minded and have a good sense of balance I respect that and think you guys are genuine but I have two major issues. two questions to throw out here to you since you are offering. 1) How do you feel about someone that does not consider themself a guest on this forum or that it is private property and who does not agree to bind themself with certain written agreements over self leadership critical thinking and self responsibility. Do you think that it's unethical to dismiss the need for using rules or guidelines as a sort of crutch in which people use to point to why they made their decisions. Such as moderator conduct and such as users referring to conduct of others and themself. 2) Are you guys upset or do you reject anyone that decides your whistleblowers are likely traitors and or not worthy of attention or completely trustworthy that can possibly manipulate and who sees the entire means of getting this information immoral, unneeded and in most causes trivial information that is very much speculative. Do you reject the contributions of anyone that sees this secrecy as invalid to creating communities and a culture of freedom and wisdom that is needed in the changing times ahead. I did my best to try and express what I meant. These are my main two issues that is all. Thanks guys. |

Some people watching your posts here and elsewhere will know what I mean. I'm sure you do, too. Make up your mind who we are, and then stand behind that. Don't blow with the wind. It makes you look weak. If I've understood your question properly (and do come back to me here if I have not answered your question, rather than criticising me elsewhere): we regard this forum as our own house. It's our party, but we've sort of thrown it open to everyone on the street. We thought a few hundred people might come along, but instead we had over five thousand. We never had enough beer or chips for everyone, and not enough room for everyone to talk quietly and have a good time. So things got crowded and out of hand. Not only that, but quite a lot of people have wandered in who do not seem to know us, and some of those people (as with any party) are just out to have fun, break things, or cause trouble. If that happened in your house, with a real party, you'd probably want those people to leave. If you made it clear that they were unwelcome and yet they still stayed and continued to abuse you and the other guests, you'd probably escort them to the door and then lock them out. This forum is not a public place. It's our house. So we're offended when people come in here and abuse us or the other guests. It's as simple as that. It's not really a matter of "rules". It's not a school, or an office building. It's a matter of what you'd want going on in your house. This is why some people have been asked to leave, or have left of their own accord (and some mods, too). They have realized that the party is not one they enjoy, or where they were welcome. Our advice to them is to go find another party and have a good time there. The role of the moderators is to help us throw a good party. Everyone has been trying hard to help. No-one gets paid, they work long hours, and they do it not for themselves but for the other party-goers. Sometimes they've made mistakes (because they are human) - and some of them have left because they didn't enjoy the party themselves any more. All that is fine and to be expected. There's no reason for conflict, no reason for personal criticism, no reason to behave badly. It's just a party, and we'd like it to be a good one. So help make it a good party if you like. If you're bored or you don't like the music, then go to another one... there are plenty around. I'm not sure that I understood your whistleblower question. If you're talking about Mary Lou's reporting of Henry Deacon to the FBI, this was an unacceptable breach of moderator trust. Think about it. If a whistleblower came to us and thought that they might be under any circumstances handed over to the authorities, do you think anyone would ever talk to us again? Probably not. Thankfully, Mary Lou did not know any of Henry Deacon's personal details at all. We keep things compartmentalized too, just as the agencies do, and we know how to keep important things confidential. And that was why. Not only that, but Mary Lou did not understand any of the Henry Deacon background, and did not realize that he did not know what he was working on until the morning of 9/11, that he was horrified when he was briefed, and that he contemplated sabotaging the project from the inside (but did not, and he suffers for that). None of that Mary Lou understood or had read on the Camelot site, where it had been for over a year. We asked her to leave, and we published all the correspondence transparently on another thread so that there could be no misunderstanding about what had happened. It's our duty to protect any whistleblower who comes forward. This is our senior responsibility. Anyone who does not stand with us on that should not be on our own team. [to be continued] |

First of all, I'd just like to say how impressed I am with the amount of work and dedication the two of you have put in, to try and shed light to the true reality that has been hidden behind the proverbial veil. Your efforts are both appreciated, and inspiring. My question is this. With your decision to focus more on future-related events, does this mean that your efforts with Project Camelot have been put on hold/ceased? I only ask, because as an avid viewer of the PC site/news/interviews, I would hate to see an end to what has become one of, if not the, most comprehensive whistle-blower/testimonial sites. Few, if any sites I've come across have had such in-depth interview sessions with such prominent names.
Thank you for everything, and keep up the excellent work! |

When will you have interviews with either Lisette Larkins or Nancy Red Star? Nancy in particular would be very interesting, as she has written (and is continuing to write) books detailing Skyperson/Star Nations lore among Native American groups and has spoken with many tribal Elders in the course of compiling her material.

It MIGHT have something to do with the region of energetic/energized space which the solar system seems to be entering (connected with the galactic plane). But just hazarding a guess... Quote:
We're currently editing interviews with Stephen Bassett from the Paradigm Research Group (on the USG and Disclosure), Jim Humble (the inventor of MMS), and an interview with a wonderful girl in her 20s called Jessica who we met at the NEXUS conference in Australia, who's had some interesting experiences and who very much represents the very aware younger genereration and the potential future of this planet. We'll soon be publishing a written interview with James from WingMakers, and have interviews bookmarked (but not yet scheduled) with David Icke, Jordan Maxwell and Jim Marrs. We also have a number of other projects and releases we're working on behind the scenes, some of which are pretty interesting but which we can't say more about at the moment. Quote:
When we first met, I was the webmaster for http://serpo.org, a strange and complex release of information about an exchange program between a team of US military scientists and an ET race in the 1970s. The story was heavily contaminated, but is likely to have been based on fact. That was my first public involvement in the UFO/ET arena. Our abbreviated bios have been on http://projectcamelot.org/about_us.html for quite a while. What else would you like to know? We have no secrets about our backgrounds, and what to say depends what you're interested in. Essentially, I have a professional background in management and team development (after studying math, physics and psychology at university in England). Kerry has a background in the film industry in LA, having trained professionally as an actress in New York. We've both been armchair UFO researchers for many years before stepping out publicly, and have also both had quite a number of paranormal experiences of various kinds - as of course have many people who will be reading this now.

Hello Bill and Kerry,
I would like to start as many others have by saying thank you. Your inspiring work has set my life in a new direction, given me a new-found purpose, and changed me (for the better) in many ways. So for this, and so much more, I thank you; my gratitude is more than words can express. My question to you is whether or not you have viewed either of Alex Collier's videos on the Andromedans. Alex claims to be a multiple abductee at the hands of these benevolent beings, and his testimony has brought me nothing but the strongest thoughts of hope, love and light. There has been a thread started about him here on the Camelot part of the forums; there is a link to his original 1994 interview where he describes multiple alien races, and some of his encounters with the Andromedans. http://www.projectavalon.net/forum/s...ead.php?t=4507 This second link is his most recent video to date, done in May of this year. I believe it's some sort of UFO conference. Here he goes into more detail about his encounters with the Andromedans, and sheds light on their thoughts on the future of the human race and our current situation. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XY62d...ext=1&index=12 I would ask, as a personal favour, that you take the time to watch these videos if you have not already, ESPECIALLY the second one, and share your opinion on what he preaches. Does anything he says ring true to anything you have seen/heard in your own experiences? Once again, thank you for all you have done, I look forward to your reply ![]() Earle Last edited by Earle; 12-10-2008 at 08:57 AM. |

May I interrupter for a moment! After watching Alex I felt that I needed to share the following. Although he talks of Andromedans and his interaction with them I have to take that on face value. It is his perception that we need to live by our conscious that resonates with me. About 4.5 years ago I went through a personal crisis. As a result I have had a change of attitude so profound that I was put back in touch with my conscious. From that time on I have been guided to many places on what seemed a great learning curve ( hence Camelot and Avalon ) I was made aware that as human beings we have been given the most valuable gift of the universe FREE WILL (the ability to create) It is this free will that has been under attach and subversive control by the powers that lord finance and materialism. I have been listening to "Handbook for the new Paradigm" where a shift in conscious to create another path is championed. Alex delivered the path via the law of continuance. It is a change from "Whats in it for me" to "How can I help" If we all gave 5 hours a week to charity or helping less fortunate the world would be a very different place. No matter how oppressive the forces that are used to control our free will, we still have the choice to help if we so desire, we simply have to choose. With all the conditioning that we have been subject to, especially the last 100 years or so it can be very difficult to make those choices. Alex put it perfectly "develop an attitude of Gratitude". The discipline for me today is to Do what my conscious suggest, despite what my subversive cultured Ego wants If it don't feel right then it probably isn't right. Sorry to waffle ![]() ![]() |

Dear Kerry & Bill,
You have done two interviews with Jim Sparks. One was about "The Keepers" and the other with Bill Holden. Jim's experiences mesh in with mine. I do not have the total recall like he does but can personally verify a lot of what happened to him from my own experiences. I have read his book "The Keepers" but was wondering if there is anything new and will there be another interview in the future? Best Regards, David |

Hi Bill,
Do you any plans to interview Mary Croft? Mary wrote the book: "HOW I CLOBBERED EVERY BUREAUCRATIC CASH-CONFISCATORY AGENCY KNOWN TO MAN ... a Spiritual Economics Book on $$$ and Remembering Who You Are" Mary Lives in Canada and is totally free unlike all of us americans who are enslaved by the corporation called the US Government via our birth certifcates. I had no idea I was a slave till I was educated by Mary. We dont know what we dont know. many thanks, Grace |

Bill-
Thanks for adding such value to the site by answering member questions directly. With regards to parallel timelines, do you believe these timelines exist only in the etheric planes of our own conciousness, or are they actual 3D timelines that we could travel back and forth from? I have always thought that timelines viewed on "looking glass" type devices were purely etheric in nature, and were only presenting other possible or probable futures, not the "actual" future. Not sure if that is clear, but I guess it all ties in to the idea that the only thing that actually exists is the "here and now". All other realities are just possible or probable outcomes. If you believe these timelines to be real 3D existences/environments, are there seperate entities, or souls occupying other parallel me's? Is my physical body being controlled by another soul in an alternative reality right now?

Sometimes we choose not publish information, and retain it for our own research. This is the case, for instance, when we receive small items of very specific information which only really fit with other pieces of the large puzzle. Sometimes we receive warnings of events on specific dates (financial, military or political), and we don't usually publish those at all unless it seems particularly significant or of overwhelming potential importance. On at least one occasion we've received very substantial information but have been asked not to reveal anything because the whistleblower has a plan for revealing the story themselves later (e.g. setting up a website of their own, etc). We will always respect that, although we may offer advice from our own experience about optimum ways to proceed. We will never reveal details of a whistleblower's identity without their consent, and occasionally we disguise a story (or a person's identity) in minor ways - or withhold certain critical details - to make it harder to for the person to be identified. It's a judgement call every time. The whistleblower's personal safety is paramount and this has to be an axiom of the way we work. This is why Mary Lou calling the FBI on Henry Deacon was an unacceptable violation of our personal code. Once we make that decision that it's important to do release information (and have the okay to do so), our options are (a) a video interview, (b) an audio interview, (c) an audio interview with disguised voice, (d) a written interview, or (e) a written report - in that order of preference. We may or may not disguise the person's name, depending on a number of factors. Quote:
My personal strong view is that membership of the Avalon Forum is a privilege, and not a right. It's like inviting someone into your house. This is not a public place, like a park or a forest where people can do (almost) whatever they like. If someone does come into your house, you'd be upset if they then started to criticize the food, the drinks, the furniture, your personal opinions, or the way you have dressed. You'd also be upset if they started to abuse the other guests. Therefore you might ask them to leave. This is essentially what the moderators do. It's got nothing to do with personal beliefs - or should not have. It's got to do with the kind of energy that the member is bringing. Some members are also certainly paid agents. This has to be understood. The intel agencies are very good at what they do and it's VERY easy to pretend to be someone on a forum and then gradually cause all kinds of trouble. Spotting this is a tough job, but moderators become skilled in tracking a members' posts and picking up their real intentions. Some members are mentally disturbed and need professional help. I say with with honesty and compassion. We know this to be the case with one ex-member and suspect it to be the case with another. On both cases, they have been asked to leave. (Note: the word "banned" is not one we can change on the forum software. Personally, I would prefer a different word - because this often sounds brutal and sort of verbally violent, which is not our style - but there's absolutely nothing we can do about it as it's 'hardwired' into the code.) Some threads are moved to other areas, and this is a judgement call. Some threads are hard to categorize, and a moderator may sometimes make a misjudgement. What has to be realized is that everyone is trying hard to do their best to make the forum a place that is easy to nagivate and find things in. Here's one thing that's really important to say. Sometimes it LOOKS as if a thread has been deleted but it has not... it's been temporarily moved to a holding area for review. The mods have a large backlog of these, and have been gradually working through them. When this happens, we are not able to change the message that the member gets when (e.g.) viewing a bookmarked thread which is that they "do not have permission" to access that thread. We're not able to change that wording, and it too is unnecessarily brutal. We'd like to be able to explain what has happened, but often we can't. This is caused a LOT of misunderstandings, and accusations from members who are either out to cause trouble (or who don't understand, or choose not to understand, how these things work), that threads are being deleted. In almost all cases, threads are NOT deleted. There are barely ANY reasonable reasons to delete threads. The moderator team has been settling down, and Kerry and I are now delighted in the team we have. They are a bunch of very wonderful people, who work long hours with no pay to make this the best possible place for members to hang out. There's been quite a shake-down, and some who didn't agree with the values and ways of working that we wanted, have left. That's fine, and is appropriate. In some cases we take responsibility for having made a bad choice when taking someone on (and those people have left). We fully support every member of the current moderating team. There is no ill-will by us towards any mods who have left. We understand that some moderators, and some members, will prefer the style and values of other forums. That's fine. If members do not want to be here, we encourage them to leave. [to be continued] |
