“I have already dealt with MIBs, psychotronics, black helicopters, etc. There is protection around my work. It has not been fun. Nonetheless, it is what I signed on for. Twenty years ago I had an NDE. Made conscious contact with the source.... The hype reporters usually go away with nothing. Those who come with an open mind and loving heart go away transformed.”

“Just look at the internal repression inside the United States, the Patriot Act, which is a repressive law against U. S. citizens. They have put in jail a group of journalists for not revealing their sources. They won't allow them to take pictures of the bodies of the dead soldiers, many of them Latinos, coming from Iraq. Those are signs of Goliath's weaknesses.”
