art bell ▲ ● ▼		AMA 40, KSNB North Las Vegas, the Valley's number one award-winning and accurate news, weather and traffic right now.
unidentified		PBS News, I'm Lou Miliano live in Times Square where they've just counted down the start of yet another new year, this time for Argentina and a rainforest adventure.
		One and a half million here doing this for every time zone, every hour.
		Everyone like Josh Quadobaum with the same reason for being here.
		Colorado, and this is a place to be.
		This is the only place to be in the United States.
		They've been here since dawn in many values states until the last time zone rings in the new year with the high point just two hours away when the year 2000 arrives here in Times Square.
		Now to the festivities on the mall in Washington and CBS News correspondent Peter Mayer.
		It is party time year two.
		Tens of thousands of people crank the majestic reflecting pool.
		With less than two hours until 2000, you can almost feel the sense of collective anticipation in this crowd.
		The Clintons and top administration officials and congressional leaders will be here for a gala show and a fireworks display that will turn the Washington Monument into a 550-foot-tall sparkler.
		Now for the latest on computer readiness from your CBS News correspondent Howard Ehrenstein at the Y2K desk in Washington.
		The news is good from Transportation Secretary Rodney Slater.
		Airports across the nation are not reporting any significant incidences.
		Energy Secretary Bill Richardson says Russia's 29 nuclear power plants passed the Y2K test.
		Fortunately, also, Ukraine's power plants have successfully rolled over, and we've been concerned about those.
		But Undersecretary of State Thomas Pickering warns...
		Monday should be a key day here in the United States.
		I'm Howard Arnstein, live at the CBS News Y2K desk.
		With more now, here's Sam Litzinger.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Sounds like a lot of folks want to keep their feet firmly on the ground this holiday weekend.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Northwest Airlines has joined other major carriers in canceling some scheduled flights.
unidentified		Why?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Not enough demand and a shortage of flight crews that want to work.
unidentified		They rocked in the new year in Rio de Janeiro with fireworks.
unidentified		Millions of people dressed in white danced under an exploding sky.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Revelers sent flowers and floating candles into the Atlantic Ocean as offerings to a goddess of the sea who zaunted across Brazil on New Year's Eve.
unidentified		Police in the Kansas City suburb of Oletha say two women walked into a bank and have taken as many as six people hostage.
unidentified		We believe the hostage takers are two females, possibly in their 20s.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		And right now, at least one of them is armed that we know of.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		The FBI's Jeff Lonzer says the suspects aren't going to get away, but they're both young and maybe they don't know that.
		No reports anyone's been hurt.
		Russia's acting president says democracy is still alive and well in his country despite the surprise resignation of President Boris Yeltsin.
		Vladimir Putin says he'll protect freedom of speech, religion, and the press.
		On Wall Street, the Dow Jones Industrials closed up just over 44 points in a short trading day.
		This is CBS News.
unidentified		What will you be doing on December 31st?
unidentified		I'm not saying where I'll be, but I know I'll be drinking La Grandme from Champagne Beufrikou.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Nearly 200 years ago, Madame Pico saw.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		In Buenos Aires, they've just begun celebrating.
unidentified		Reporter Don Makinson is in the center of things there.
		Hello, I'm standing on top of a 16-story high rise in the geographic center of Buenos Aires.
		Very difficult to hear because fireworks are going off all around me.
		This is a city that gave up on one central party and instead dispersed parties all over the city for fear of rioting.
		3,000 police are all over the city in case of any difficulties.
		But in the meantime, parties have started up everywhere.
		And instead of one central fireworks display, there are hundreds of fireworks displays going off all around me.
		This afternoon in Buenos Aires, the big fear was that a power shortage would take place shortly after midnight.
		So we are told that there are no candles left in this city.
		Reporter Don Makinson, I'm Sam Litzinger, CBS News.
		I'm Dean DeVoer with the exclusive AnkuWeather forecast, partly to mostly cloudy overnight with the low 37.
		For New Year's Day, it won't be as mild with times of clouds and sunshine, the high 59.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Patchy clouds Saturday night, the low 35.
unidentified		Sunday breezy with clouds and some sunshine, the high 55.
		With AnkuWeather, I'm Dean DeVoer on the Talk Station AM840KXNT.
		Hi, I'm Tommy Lasorda.
		In baseball, you get three strikes.
		In baseball, you get three strikes.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		From the high desert in the great American Southwest, I bid you good evening, or yes, still, in some cases, good morning, even at this hour, across many, many time zones commercially from the Tahitian and Hawaiian Island chain eastward to the Caribbean and the U.S. Virgin Islands, plural, south into South America, north all the way to the Pole and worldwide on the internet.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		This is Coast to Coast AM and I'm Art Bell.
unidentified		Well, good evening, most of you.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		How's it going where you are?
		The news across the world so far is pretty good.
		Really good, actually.
		The headline on the Associated Press is Y2K bug nibbles but doesn't bite.
		The anticipated first bite from the Y2K bug was barely felt Saturday as computers around the world silently made the transition from 1999 to 2000.
		I wonder if they expected screams.
		The lights stayed on in Asia, and Eastern Russia's nuclear plants ran without a hitch.
		In Japan, the failure of a computer linked to a nuclear plant monitoring device was not considered serious enough to shut the plant down.
		They will assess it later.
		Millions are staying home and marking it online.
		Other millions are in Times Square and capitals around the world.
		And I think that the most spectacular, by far, the most spectacular light show was in George Paris.
		The Eiffel Tower really went up like a Roman candle.
		That was something to see, wasn't it?
		So, so far, so good.
		One quick warning, though.
		Do not declare, based on what you've seen from the rest of the world so far, that Y2K is a complete non-event.
		We're not going to know that until we get back to work first of the week or so, until the world really goes back to work, and then you'll know more than you know now.
		The only event that I was really concerned about tonight and remain concerned about, by the way, whether it's by human hand or computer glitch, is the power.
		And we'll see.
		As long as we get through the night with power, I think we're going to be okay throughout the weekend.
		And then when the business week begins, well, we'll see.
		One other little item, in the middle of the show last night, a real shocker, Boris Yeltsin has resigned, just boom, like that.
		Resigned.
		Remarkable, incredible, unbelievable.
		He just called it quits.
		As of right now, I'm done.
		Handed power over to somebody who's probably much more of a hardliner than he is.
		And there has been very bad.
		In fact, I really haven't heard a Washington reaction.
		I wonder if any of you have yet.
		I'm kind of waiting to see what Washington says about it, and I'm not even sure they knew about it.
		Well, coming up in a moment is what I believe is our nation's premier intuitive.
		His name is Gordon Michael Scallion.
		He comes to us tonight, despite the fact that he has the flu.
		So many out there have the flu tonight.
		Gordon has it.
		But he's going to be here nevertheless.
		Lots and lots to talk about, so all of that lies directly ahead.
		In three hours, when Gordon and I have, and all of you have finished, we will then open the lines and we'll do all sorts of various things and monitor what's going on out there.
		At any rate, if you're here, welcome to a very, very early edition of what is normally an all-night radio program.
		Well, it still is tonight, because we're starting a little early.
		Well, maybe you are saying to yourself, who needs storable food?
		Well, maybe you are.
		Maybe you've already bought storable food.
		If you haven't, we want it.
		We've got it.
		The J. Michael Stevens company is still lots of good reasons to store food.
		The weather out there is just a little sour.
		Boy, the weather has been actually unbelievable and is in the middle of a big change.
		Anyway, J. Michael Stevens, after a hard year, has taken a break, but you can still order food.
		They have prepared, pre-prepared your supplies of food before they went on hiatus.
		So call them.
		1-800-377-0700.
		That's 1-800-377-0700.
		And now, this is a biggie.
		You're not going to believe this.
		The Sea Crane Company is open right now.
		They're going to be open until midnight Pacific time, the next five hours.
		And so we're going to advertise a number of products for you that you might want to snap up.
		Now that you may not have to use your money for other important things.
		How would you like a Zot, a Zeit radio-controlled wall clock?
		This is hooked up by radio.
		It's an amazing clock.
	It's hooked up by radio to the atomic clock in Boulder, Colorado.
	And they just got a brand new atomic clock in Boulder, Colorado.
	You don't even know it's communicating, but this clock electronically communicates with Boulder and it sets itself.
	As a matter of fact, when you put the battery in and you first start it out, it goes around like an HG Wells time machine and then, boom, stops and begins to tick.
	And it is accurate to within one second in a million years.
	One second in a million years.
	If you look behind me on the wall, way back there, if you're looking at my streaming video or my studio cam, you will see a clock on a wall.
	That's a Zeit clock.
	I've got the camera tilted up a little bit for a nice Welcome 2000 sign.
	Got the studio.
	My wife kind of zipped up the studio a little bit for the celebration hours away here on the West Coast.
	But the Zeit clock is the first item we're going to advertise tonight, right now.
	Bob Crane is actually at work.
	He is going to work.
	That's where he wanted to be, I guess.
	If the world was ending, Bob would want to be down there taking into the world calls.
	But he's there taking, answering your calls right now.
	So call him.
	It's one of those rare times when the Sea Cream Company is open at this time of night.
	I mean, they're never open at this time of night.
	But tonight they are.
	The Zeit Atomically Controlled Clock, $59.95.
	That's right.
	$59.95 on sale, specially tonight was $79.95, $59.95, right?
	Now call them right now.
	Yes, right now at 1-800-522-8863.
	That's 1-800-522-8863.
	When was the last time you and your partner had the type of lovemaking that you'll never forget?
	Wouldn't it be great if you never had to worry about performance and stamina ever again?
	Well, for years I've been telling you about one of my favorite doctors, Dr. Michael Taplinski.
	He's thoroughly identified and tested some of the most potent natural aphrodisiac herbs and combined them in one single formula, Super Libido Formula.
	You'll find the results are nothing short of amazing.
	You'll enjoy the sexual pleasure you feared was lost forever naturally and with no side effects, unlike prescription drugs.
	If lack of desire, lack of stamina have taken the spontaneity and enjoyment out of sex for you and your partner, well then Super Libido Formula is for you.
	And when you call right now, you'll get an irresistible holiday special.
	Order two bottles of the Super Libido Formula and you'll get two absolutely free.
	Now that's 50% off, so call right now.
	1-800-472-5151.
	That's 1-800-472-5151.
	Again, 1-800-472-5151.
	Try to and get two free when you call now.
	The End All right, just about every network television program that was doing its big New Year's event tonight, as we are, invited Gordon Michael Scallion to be on because he is indeed probably our premier intuitive.
	Gordon was a businessman one day addressing at a very important business conference, other businessmen about a plan, and his voice went away.
	And when I say went away, I mean mid-word, it stopped.
	They took him to the hospital where he had an experience that we have described previously on this program.
	Can only be described as a paranormal experience of some sort.
	Went through years of intuitive growth, I guess you would say, began by actually diagnosing people who had various diseases, telling them what to do, trying to grapple and understand this power he had, and then began looking at the larger picture.
	What's going on around the world?
	What will go around the world?
	He sees things, as we have discussed in the past, much like you would imagine three television TV screens in front of you.
	One of them appearing more contrasty, bright, with more vivid color than the others.
	And this one would appear to have the events most likely, not locked in stone, but most likely to occur.
	And he has honored us by being here on New Year's Eve, all the way from the East Coast, in the middle of the flu.
	Gordon, welcome to the program.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Happy New Year, Arch.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I hope I got that little first part right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Happy New Year to you too.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Yes, you did.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So we've got, no doubt, a lot to talk about.
		Here it is, almost 2,000.
		It really is, it's got a feel about it.
		You know, it feels like something's coming, and of course, something always is coming.
		And that's why we have you here tonight to tell us what might be coming.
		And I don't know where you want to begin.
		I know that you know a lot of stuff about Egypt and some discoveries that may be made there here shortly.
		Is that right?
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Egypt is probably the one area that I have the most information on.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		That and lost civilization.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Did you know they were going to bring a helicopter in and drop a new gold capstone on the Great Pyramid?
		And at the last minute, virtually, they ruled against it, saying, well, it might harm the pyramid or something or another.
		But they would not let Dr. Hawass fly in the helicopter with a gold capstone, so that did not get done.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		I understood two or three weeks ago, one of my connections in Egypt informed me that they were not going to be doing it.
		And it had more to do with it wasn't just that they thought that it would damage the pyramid.
		There's another whole range of reasons why that isn't being done.
		There's been some amazing discoveries there.
		I mean, it's kind of like...
art bell ▲ ● ▼		There have been.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		In other words, discoveries that we have.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, we know about some of the discoveries.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Fox had a show on this year.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Right.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		And they showed a few scenes of it, a few clips of it.
		That's only the beginning of it.
		In my book, I described that somewhere around 95, they would find some hidden chambers beneath the Sphinx, and then that would lead to further discoveries.
		And eventually, those discoveries would come to light probably in the year 2000 or 2001.
		And so we're now in that window, that cycle, where these discoveries are going to come out.
		And it's going to change the world.
		I guess the only way I can describe it would be like, you know, when they released the stealth fighter, the 117, and they rolled it out and let the film crews take pictures of it, everybody was amazed.
		They said, you know, is this wonderful?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I remember.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		But it had been flying for a decade.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		You know, we only get the information after the technology is pretty much gone by.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Much later, yeah.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Now, there's other things that are flying.
		I did a paper on the craft that I believe is flying now, the Aurora.
		And so, you know, when that finally becomes knowledge, there'll be something else.
		It's the same thing with archaeology.
		Lots of times when discoveries are made, there's a time period before it's released because there's two major factors in releasing information.
		One is does it violate any kind of political agenda?
		And two, does it violate or conflict with any kind of religious structure?
		And both of these are at play in Egypt.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Or even archaeological paradigm.
		You're absolutely right.
		And to punctuate what you just said, I asked Dr. Hawass when I was at Giza, if he made a really major discovery, would we know about it?
		Oh, yes, he said.
		Right away?
		Oh, no, he said.
		He admitted that straight out.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
		Let me tell you what I believe they've discovered.
		And more importantly, why.
		I think we have to back up just a little bit.
		You know, I've devoted a significant portion of my book to it, so I'll try to just encapsulate it so that we can do it quickly here.
		Okay.
		The pyramid itself is believed to be some 4,000 years old.
		In reality, according to my information, and others such as Edgar Casey and the late Paul Solomon, we've all kind of targeted it within a few years of each other as a date.
		And that date puts us back 12,500 years ago.
		So right after that, we're in conflict with just about everything that we know as far as age of people.
		You know, at that time, supposedly we were still in loin clubs.
		We didn't have any organized systems.
		We didn't have a language.
		But now we're finding as we're making more and more discoveries because of technology, we're finding that there was 10,000 years ago societies.
		And we're finding a lot of them in Africa, in the Aegean region, here in the United States.
		We've got archaeological sites that I have been to that have been dated to 4,000, 5, and 6, and 7,000 years.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You are so right.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		So that particular structure is presented, if you, you know, I was fortunate enough to go to Egypt.
		I was very fortunate enough to spend three days, literally by myself, inside of that Great Pyramid.
		I was able to do a lot of inner work.
		I wasn't part of a group.
		It just happened to work out.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Three days?
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		I stayed, there's a hotel right across the street from there.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That's right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Something most people don't know because they never pan the camera around there.
unidentified		Yeah.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		And I went down and I wanted to get a ticket to go in, you know, like normal people would go in.
		And this gentleman comes over to me, definitely an Egyptian, and looks at me and hands me this ticket.
		I think he is looking for a donation because everybody's looking for money for that country.
unidentified		Oh, yes.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Did you ride a camel?
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Oh, yeah.
unidentified		Oh, yeah.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Those guys are really into money, and they won't let you off the camel until you pay them.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Absolutely.
		Anyways, he said to me, do you want to go in, he says, you want to go inside the pyramid, don't you?
		And I said, yes.
		I said, where do I get the pyramid?
		And I looked at it, and the card was a pass.
		And I said, oh, he's selling passes.
		And so I looked at him, and I had a good feel about it, and I said, how much?
		And he said, nothing.
		He says, come with me.
		And we literally walked in, and as it turns out, he was one of the guards there.
		He wasn't really a guide, he was like a guard.
		And he stopped everybody and let me go into the chambers I wanted to go into.
		And I stayed in the king's chamber for about an hour.
		And then I came back out, and I was really confused about all this, because in my mind, I'm thinking, what a bill I'm going to get when I leave here for this kind of service.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I thought the meter was running.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		And then the strangest thing happened.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		He put his hand on my shoulder, and he says, I remember you when we built this.
unidentified		Oh.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		And I had these chills up and down my spine, and I left.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		And so the next day I come back, and I don't see him, so I go over and I buy a ticket because I want to go back.
unidentified		Sure.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		So I go up inside, and there he is.
		And he says, come with me.
		He says, where do you want to go?
		And I said, I want to spend some time in the Queen's Chamber.
		And once again, he stopped, and I spent about an hour there.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Gordon, they must have known who you were.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		I don't think so.
		You know, I've had some very phenomenal experiences.
		Not a lot of them.
		Losing my voice was one of them.
		Having other kind of out-of-body experiences was...
		And I had a dream one night and said, tomorrow morning, book a ticket.
		And in the dream, he gave me the flight number and everything.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Really?
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		So I called my travel agent and I said, is there a flight so-and-so?
		And he said, yes, it is.
		Do you want us to book it?
		And I said, yeah.
		And so, you know, got my passport and I was gone.
		Literally.
		I mean, we literally left in 24 hours.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, Dr. Owas rules that area with an iron hand.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And for somebody to do what they did for you would be just incredible.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		I don't know.
		There were lines.
		When I came back down the descending passageway, there were lines there waiting to get in.
		I mean, they didn't close the pyramid for me by any means.
		They just, whatever room I was into, he simply allowed me to be in that room.
		But while I was in there, you know, all the imagery of the purpose of that structure, now they were, you know, current Egyptology says that they are tombs.
		And as you know, anything that's other than a certain date that they have placed on it and whose tomb it was, there's no room.
		I mean, there's no room for any form of mysticism or occultism at all with Egyptian authorities.
		But in my particular case, when I was there, it was really clear what it was.
		And the structure was built as a giant observatory.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Observatory.
		All right, hold it right there, Gordon.
		As a giant observatory.
		Now, where have I heard that before?
		Echoes of guests past.
		A giant observatory.
		Something with which to observe the stars.
		Something to launch spirits.
		Not a burial ground, indeed.
		I'm Art Bell.
		The guest is Gordon Michael Scallion, and we're here early on New Year's Eve as the New Year races toward the Atlantic coast.
unidentified		New Year's Eve AMA 40, KXNT.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		KXNT's Alan Stock here for the TV Guardian.
unidentified		As a parent, you're no doubt concerned about...
		The sight of the touch or the scent of the sand, or the strength of an eye speak in the grass.
		The wonder of flowers to be covered and then to burst up through tarmac to the sun again.
		Or to fly to the sun without burning a wing.
		To lie the man, hear the grass sing, how the holy sings in an angry song, and the eternal love.
		To lie the man, hear the man, hear the grass sing, how the holy sings in an angry song, and the eternal love.
		Yeah.
		Yeah.

art bell ▲ ● ▼		Doing an all-night marathon, actually, beginning now through 3 a.m. Pacific time.
		It'll be an eight-hour program.
		Three hours with Gordon Michaels Gallion, who's here right now.
		We'll get back to the pyramids in just a moment.
unidentified		The End I am now the CEO for BuyItNow.com.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Back to New Hampshire and Gordon Michael Scallion.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Gordon, you said, an observatory.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		It was constructed for multiple purposes, but its primary function was that it was to be a method of combining engineering and technology and spirituality,
		seeing it all as one, so that in its shape, its measurements, its hallways, every element of it reflected a scientific principle or a measurement right down to a time capsule of prophecies for the future, religious prophecies for the future in the history of man.
		And it carried itself from the time it was constructed all the way through to the year 1998.
		And that's where the timeline of the prophecies that are contained in there stop.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		If it was originally a high technological device of some sort, as well as a spiritual device of some sort or center of some sort, then that means there was a civilization that had evolved indeed past our present point.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Let's say that we went the electrical route here in this country.
		If we had gone, let's say, one of the technologies that Nikola Tesla had conceived, then our technology would have gone in a different direction.
		We would have achieved very similar things, just as we can use oil or we can use coal or nuclear.
		There are different ways of producing electricity.
		So in this particular case, they went a different route technologically.
		Let me just read, I'll read you one paragraph from my book, which I think will answer that question.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Sure.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		This is from page 260 in Notes in the Cosmos.
		The question that I had asked my dream guide was, who built the Great Pyramid?
		And the response was, Atlanteans in conjunction with Egyptians and Darians.
		And Darians were a group of people that occupied portions of Russia and China.
		And they had moved into that land somewhere around 12,600 years ago.
		Egyptians were already there as a culture.
		And the Atlanteans began coming into that land because their own lands were destroyed slowly by earth changes.
		And so there had already been some migrations into Egypt.
		And one of their prime spiritual leaders actually left Atlantis, or Pisidia specifically, which was one of the islands.
		And he came to Egypt and acted as the engineer for the site.
		And his name was Hermes.
		And Ra was one of the Darians.
		And then there were the Egyptians.
		And so the combination of labor and engineering and technology came together to create this monument.
		The monument took a little less than 100 years to construct.
		And then my next question was, how does this machine work?
		The machine's purpose as constructed was multiple in design.
		Bending time was its focus.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Bending time.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		So as to provide a process for initiation.
		However, the manner in which this was accomplished provided other benefits for its people.
		These varied from increased crop yield, weather control, the form of electrical power, and a learning institute for the study of the heavens, astronomy, astrology, and cosmic forces, mathematics, chemistry, interworld dimensions, and the seven levels of initiation.
		All of these were part of its design.
		So it would be kind of like Palomar in one sense.
		And in doing that, these people were, if we were to look at them with our eyes today, they would almost seem to be blinking off and on.
		In my visions, when I've looked back at that time period, they're not as dense physically in matter.
		They're somewhat lighter.
		The Atlanteans that I see on that site look very similar to Native American Indians.
		It's the only way I can describe them.
		A little taller, perhaps, and lighter colored hair, kind of a blue-gray eyes, and a little taller, but very similar feature-wise to Native Americans.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		What destroyed Atlantis?
		You said earth changes.
		I mean, did it virtually sink beneath the sea?
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		What happened?
		They went through several levels of changes.
		The time period of its sinking is, from my dream voyages and my inner work, closely resembles what Plato says in his book, The Critias, where he talks about the sinking of Atlantis in a day.
		What I did, I did a lot of work in trying to figure out exactly where it was.
		Originally, it was a very large landmass that kind of straddled the Americas on the west, Africa on the east, extending, but the Canaries, and then moving all the way up into where the Med would be.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That's a lot of land.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, so it was a very large landmass.
		In fact, at one time, the lowlands of Atlantis were parts of the Florida Straits, parts of New England, parts of Virginia.
		And then the Mississippi kind of divided the United States.
		There was a large inland sea there at one time.
		Then Atlantis went through several destructions.
		The first two destructions were caused by the technology they were using.
		This was some 30,000 years ago when they literally used the technology they had developed in such a way as it released or it ignited large gas pockets underneath the plate that supported the whole little continent, and that blew it apart.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You know, Gordon, there are stories that Tesla himself actually caused earthquakes.
		It was able to cause earthquakes.
		Now, you never, it's hard to separate myth from fact when you research Tesla, but it is said, and there are witnesses to the fact that he did that, and that's the same energy you're talking about, isn't it?
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		It is.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		And he discovered the same key that they used to build the pyramids, that was used in a place in Florida called Coral Castle.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That's right.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		That same technology.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That man knew it then.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		What that?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		The man at the Coral Castle knew and utilized the same technology.
unidentified		Yeah.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		And he was a spindly man.
		Ed was all of 95 pounds, and yet he constructed 80, 120 ton structures, you know, by himself.
		But he discovered that the same secret, the same technology, and Tesla did too.
		And I have no doubt that Tesla knew exactly how the energy system of the Earth worked.
		And unfortunately, he didn't figure out how to put a meter on it to charge.
		He saw it as a gift to humanity.
		Westenhaus, who was backing him, needed some way of making it a profitable.
		And that's really what the division was.
		That's where his technology stopped.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		In other words, if we can't get a meter on it, we don't want it.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Right.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Technology has been, you know, my sources tell me that technology has been rediscovered and it's been in use now for 30, 40 years.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Again, Dr. Hawass at the pyramids, when you ask him about Atlantis, he goes, oh, baloney, who built the pyramids?
		Well, the Egyptian built pyramids, and he will demonstrate how that was done.
		But then, when you get to the point where you ask him, Well, then, Doctor, how did they actually build the pyramids?
		And he just goes silent and he goes, Ah, but art, that is the great mystery, isn't it?
		We have no idea how they did it.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Well, he is a politician.
unidentified		Yes.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		And I have had conversations with him, and he loves his country, and he loves what he does.
		And there is a very strong religious control over what he does.
		But regardless of that, this is all going to be coming out in the year 2000.
		We're going to see short pieces of it because the entrance that they found on the Sphinx, and when they showed it on television, all you saw was nothing.
		Everything was removed.
		It was part of a statophicus there.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That's right.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		But there was nothing there.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Everything else had already been taken out.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Everything had been taken out.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I believe that too.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		And what happens is that that in itself is not going to change history too much, but there's corridors.
		And in my book, I describe what happens when they will enter it.
		I said somewhere between 95 and 97, they'll enter under the Sphinx.
		When they do get there, what they will discover is passageways.
		And these passageways are crucial because the passageways lead to pyramids, other pyramids buried deep in that plateau.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Below the ground?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Other pyramids?
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Below the ground.
		Several hundred feet below the ground.
		And so while the Great Pyramid is this enigma, you know, I have a lot of technical background.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I know you do.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		And so, you know, when I look at things I look at from an engineering point of view to see how...
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		It's just a physical impossibility.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It is.
		The Japanese tried it.
		I mean, some of the best have tried it.
		They can't do it.
		Yeah.
		No, we know that.
		That's true.
		You said, you intrigued me to bend time.
		Toward what end?
		Why were they doing that?
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		It was a time of a spiritual high.
		Atlantis was being destroyed.
		The last time it was destroyed, it was destroyed because the plate that supported the last remaining island, and that island would have been perhaps the size of, maybe twice the size of Texas.
		And it was on kind of a shelf.
		And there was an upheaval in the earth that caused it to be a huge sinkhole.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		They saw this coming.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		They knew it was coming.
		They didn't know when, but they knew it was coming.
		And migrations had already started going out to other lands.
		And Spain was one of the areas they went to.
		The Yucatan was another area they went to.
		The United States was another area they went to.
		And Egypt was another area.
		So migrations, slow migrations that started.
		But the people who left were people who wanted to have a different lifestyle.
		Atlantis had become very corrupt.
		And there was two factions there.
		There was those who were following a spiritual path and the other were following a material world.
		Not too much different than what we find today.
		And so they wanted to construct this temple of initiation where individuals could come and, through training, learn how to develop their, what we would call today, our higher intuitive skills.
		The device itself would enable communications with other worlds, not only other physical worlds, such as in the Cirrus Sun system or the Pleiades, but other worlds in the Earth.
		And so an initiate would be one who perfected these seven levels of consciousness.
		And so there was various schools of training, various temples of training, and then when you were ready, you would go with one of the priests and you would enter into this chamber.
		And the chamber was not in the king's chamber or the queen's chamber.
		Those were the operating rooms where the controls were functions and the ascending and descending passageways in the grand hall.
		All of those were part of the machinery that was in there.
		But beneath the great pyramid were the control rooms for the operators.
		And when the machine functioned, and this would function at certain key times, as recorded in the Queen's Chamber, the Queen's Chamber has a niche in the wall which they had never been able to figure out what it's all about.
		It's carved into the wall and it looks like it was sawed into it.
		But it's one of those enigmas.
		What was this for?
		What it was for was to indicate the times when communications was possible.
		So the machine was charged with a gas and the gas would fill these chambers.
		The instrument in the Grand Hall would function and tune itself.
		And it would then connect somebody down below underneath the pyramid.
		And if you were able to achieve the right vibration, right meditative state, you would be able to enter in this time stream.
		And in the time stream, you would be able to know who you really were, who you were in the past life, get glimpses of the future.
		So that was one mode of this.
		There were several other modes that it was used for as well.
		One of those was what Carl Jung calls the collective consciousness, the universal mind.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Your impression, though, is that all of this was created by beings, I guess the word is indigenous to Earth, without outside help, or was there outside help?
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		The outside help that came came before the technology which was being able to facet crystals in such a fashion and to focus it in such a fashion and align it in such a way that it would create incredible amounts of energy.
		Now, that was given to them some 35,000 years ago by visitors who came from the Pleiades.
		So, you know, this reads like a UFO science fiction novel, but I just pass the information through as I receive it, and in time eventually will, you know, will lead to whether there's any fact to this.
		But many of the things that I received from those sessions have proven out so far.
		As more and more discoveries are coming to the surface, we begin to see it, you know.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So then are you suggesting, apparently, that what they either have already found and haven't told us about, or will find shortly, will be these control rooms?
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		I don't believe they're into the control rooms yet.
		I believe where they are, however, is into the chambers of science and mathematics and history.
		I believe they have gained access to those.
unidentified		So in those hallways, those hallways lead to these archives.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		It's no different than what we're doing right now.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		We're burying time capsules all over the planet.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes, we are.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		And so imagine a civilization that is advanced, knows that there's great changes coming to the world, and that because they are a spiritually based people, they want to leave something that's going to survive thousands of years so that the people who come later,
		if they're intelligent enough to understand and read the messages, can gain from it.
		And so the construction was designed for that.
		And in these rooms, they put the history of their world, where they came from, archaeological items, various placemaps, if you will, showing kind of recipes.
		These are in forms of tablets.
		I counted 32 in one room.
		Kind of look like a gold foil with an emerald cast to it.
		And they're all in symbolic form, like hieroglyphs.
		And so you've got these, they've got some of the tools, they've got the plans for how they built the device, and then they also lead to where you can find other things.
		So it's kind of like once you get into these halls, you start getting clues to the puzzle, and then you can then go to the next stage and find some more.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		They nevertheless, however, didn't make it.
		I mean, they essentially became extinct despite the spiritual and high technological level they had achieved with all their power, Tesla technology and all the rest of it.
		They're not around.
		So when you get back, I want to ask Gordon whether there's information, which many people believe, in these centers and in this library of knowledge yet to be uncovered, we think yet to be uncovered, that would tell us how to save ourselves.
		How can we save ourselves if they were unable to save themselves?

art bell ▲ ● ▼		BuyItNow.com The End All right, back now to Gordon Michael Scallion, one of our nation's greatest intuitives.
		He's been kind of a friend for years now, and on this program tonight, when he could have been elsewhere on networks and who knows where.
		Gordon, the obvious question that I trailed with as we left the hour was, somehow or another, they did not save themselves despite this great technology, this spiritual level they had apparently achieved.
		They're gone.
unidentified		They are.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		They are gone.
		They did have a millennium of use of that technology in that temple site that they had built there.
		And then there was a great cataclysm when the last remaining portions of Atlantis sank and they created yet another flood for the world.
		So in that time period, their culture did reach high levels.
		They did populate the world and move people around the world, which then generated like sub-races of people, if you will.
		And it's not too much different.
		If we look at what we know scientifically, archaeologically, we can look at Greece, you know.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So in a way they survived.
unidentified		Rome.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Everybody goes through this point.
		I mean, our nation is a relatively, really young nation.
		And looking at television tonight, with the satellite coverage around the world, even with my technological background, I'm in awe of it.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It's amazing.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		It was like, you know, it's seeing this interconnectedness that's possible.
		It shows us our potential.
		But even knowing all of that, there will be another cycle.
		Everything has a cycle.
		And it's a natural rhythmic cycle of the Earth.
		Yes.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Here's where I want to ask you a big question.
		You know, the weather changes on Earth right now, Gordon, are obvious.
		Obvious to almost everybody.
		The Arctic has lost 40% of the ice depth.
		The Antarctic has ice fields falling off.
		The glaciers are melting.
		The signs are everywhere.
		And the weather, I mean, the storms that just hit Europe, for example, unbelievable storms.
		What would have been category four hurricanes that shouldn't even be developing at this time of year in the winter in Europe?
		And yet they slammed into Europe with horrid destruction.
		And our own storms, our hurricanes, our tornadoes, they're all getting bigger and more frequent.
		And is that a part of this cycle?
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		It is part of it.
		According to the American Red Cross, this is the 1999 was the most destructive year in recorded history.
		We had more natural disasters affected more places on the planet than ever before.
		And so, you know, the Red Cross is one of those organizations that I support wholeheartedly.
		In fact, the royalties from my book, Don't from the Cosmos, are donated to organizations like the Red Cross.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		They've had a lot of work lately.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Well, I mean, look at the, you know, we've got the unbelievable floods that just occurred.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Venezuela.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, and we have a count of, you know, 20,000, 30,000 souls.
		And then if we look back shortly after the time of the eclipse, we see the turkey quakes and cyclones and then the floods we had in North Carolina and even in your state.
		One of the things that I said last time I was on your show is that we would see water in Nevada.
		And so you had those conditions in North Carolina.
		So we're seeing all of this.
		And of course, if you look at what the media would tend to say is that, well, it was an El Niño and then it was a La Niña.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I know.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		And it just doesn't explain.
		No.
		But what does explain it is something that both you and I know as ham radio operators is this thing called sunspots.
		In fact, there is an aurora tonight.
		At least I've been able to see it from New England where I am here.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Are you seeing it in New England?
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, it's not a very big one, but I was listening earlier on two meters, and I can hear that very familiar sound, that Russian white noise sound, sure.
		And I said, Oh, there's an aurora someplace.
		So we had, you know, somewhere we had something in the solar wind, a flare, something happened, maybe not a big one.
		This wasn't a very well-developed one.
		But the key thing is that the cause of this, and this ties into the pyramids in Egypt as well, as well as earth changes, is the sun.
		The sun is the crucial instrument for all of this.
		When I was on your show in February, we were talking about sunspots.
		And one of the things that I had said on that show was that, and I'll read the exact quote from, this year we will see numbers that might hit 300, 400, or 500, not 150 or 200 as we recently experienced.
		And as you know, we've been tracking sunspots for 400 years.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		And the highest number never reached 200.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		And all of a sudden, bingo, in June, it hits 340.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It did indeed.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		And then again in November, it punched over the 340 mark again.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And it's still climbing.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		And we're not yet at the peak.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		In other words, as the sun turns, we keep coming into it again and again.
		And it will happen again shortly.
		They're talking about the month of January.
		And we should get a real whopper.
		There's no question about it.
		But even at your latitude tonight, you're getting a slight aurora, huh?
unidentified		Yep.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Wow.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		A very slight one.
unidentified		It isn't well-pronounced multiple color bands, but the blues are there at least.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		So I would say it's a very, very small one.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, surprisingly, even shockingly, I don't know if you caught this story the other day, but the chief U.S. meteorological person and the chief in the United Kingdom both sent out an unprecedented joint statement saying climate change has now entered a rapid stage.
		It's changing rapidly.
		That's amazing for them to say.
unidentified		It is.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		And utility companies now, when you get your bills, I have little notes for them saying that due to this current sunspot cycle 23, that there may be outages.
		And they go on to even tell you why.
		The last time we had the cycle, the numbers were not, you know, they weren't very high, but the grid network wasn't as interconnected as it is now.
		And so, you know, we're very vulnerable now.
		We have a lot of wire out there strung up like a huge antenna.
		And so it's the sun going through a much larger cycle than its 22-year cycle, or what is known as the 11-year sunspot cycle.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Or cycles within cycles.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Exactly.
		And in the Great Pyramid, they left that there as a marker to let people know for themselves.
		It let them know when there was going to be changes in their land.
		So they knew it was coming.
		And they also wanted to let future generations know when it would happen again.
		So they knew the cycle was about 12,000 years.
		About every 12,000 years, there is an alteration of the Earth's magnetic field of some level.
		Sometimes it's a complete flip.
		Sometimes it's very small.
		Sometimes it doesn't occur.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		But generally triggered by or precipitated by the sun.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		That is my belief.
		There is currently no scientific evidence to support that.
		The only thing that we know scientifically is that when the magnetic field, the Earth's magnetic field begins to collapse, which for the past 50 years has been, and when it gets to that point, it's at that point where it snaps and the magnetic field adjusts itself.
		It's like the Earth is like a spinning gyroscope and it wants to remain stable.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		The star tracks the equivalent of shields down.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, yeah.
		But in that pyramid, if you look out that there's an ascending passageway and a descending passageway.
		And those passageways were used to calibrate, if you will, the pyramid.
		It would line up on a specific star.
		And therefore, once they had an alignment, they could then plot, they can finish building the device.
		So the first thing they do is they dig this long passageway into the limestone surface going down hundreds of feet.
		So it's almost like a telescope.
		And then they can sight exactly.
		And then once they have that, they can continue building the structure.
		But they also knew that by studying a fixed star, that they can tell if there was going to be a variation in the Earth's orbit.
		So they could tell very accurately when changes would come about.
		And so they left that there.
		And the actual angle of it is very important.
		Another mystery of the pyramid was why do they build these ascending and descending passageways with the same angle?
		It's a 26-degree angle.
		And the reason that I believe it is, is because it indicates the offset of the Earth's axis.
		The Earth currently has an axis of 23.5 degrees, and that varies throughout time.
		But if it ever reaches 26 degrees, that's the critical point.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That's the point when we would see...
		Yeah.
		Now, a lot of people don't comprehend what that sudden flip might mean.
unidentified		What might it mean?
unidentified		There's several levels.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		One is that the magnetic field itself of the Earth could shift, could change.
		So where your compass was pointing north, for example, It might point to a slightly different direction.
		And this could be a matter of a few degrees, it could be 90 degrees, it could be 180 degrees.
		There's a lot of variables.
		In our civilization, the variables are our technology, our global warming, all of that adds to the conditions.
		I mean, right now we've got, as you stated, a massive meltoff.
		You know, that is unbelievable.
		Well, that is not caused by global warming.
		It's just not even physically possible.
		Even if you study the satellite photos, you see that the meltoff is coming beneath it, not above it.
		So I believe what's happened is that the Earth's core itself has shifted its position relative to the mantle of the Earth.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, now you're right about that, because they said the thickness of the ice at the Arctic is 40% less than two decades ago.
		Now, that's incredible.
		That's an incredible amount of fresh water suddenly going into the Arctic Ocean.
		That's just an incredible amount.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		And that should continue to increase until the Earth stabilizes itself again.
		And the stability would be that, just like a gyroscope, it finds a new balancing point.
		And once it finds that balancing point, it's okay.
		So is it the end of the world?
		I don't think so.
		But I do believe that the weather patterns that we have seen this year, which are off the charts, will continue next year and more so.
		We've got a phenomena coming up here, which I'm sure you must have talked about on your show at one time, which is this planetary alignment that's coming up this spring.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		May 5th, 2000.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		The alignment begins to take hold somewhere around March.
		We start to see some of the effects.
		By April, it's swinging pretty close.
		When we get into May, we're sitting there with a grouping of planets.
		We've got Saturn, Jupiter, Venus, Mercury, Mars on one side of the Sun, and then on the other side of the Sun, we've got the Earth and Pluto.
		And so all of those planets will affect not necessarily the Earth directly, but I believe they will affect the Sun.
		So as we're hitting this solar cycle 23 peak, where the Sun is really starting to go ballistic as part of its natural cycle, now you've got all these planets lining up, you know, adding their own energy.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Boy, you know, I was about to jump on you and say, come on, the gravitational effect, even in that sort of alignment, could not affect Earth.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		But I have heard so many people speak on angular momentum and the effect of the planets on the sun that that really resonates.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		And this is what I believe will happen is that we will see sunspot count that will be 500 and up.
		We're going to see major flares.
		And those are the things that couple to the Earth.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Boy, six meters is going to be great.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, and the awards, of course, will be...
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Actually, we had a narrow escape from one not long ago.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Yes, that's true.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		For a very short little time, they thought it was headed at Earth, and it scared the hell out of them.
		Actually, it was headed in the precise opposite direction.
		But they said, had it been headed toward us, there would have been quite a surprise for Earth.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		So they were prepared to turn the satellites around and shield them.
		A lot of those birds that are up there are older technology.
		And, you know, you remember when the cell phones all went down?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, yeah.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Well, next year we're going to see that.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		We're going to see that kind of communications drop-off from the sun.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Even the cell phones, huh?
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Well, most of those, you know, we are moving into a wireless society now, and we're moving towards satellite-delivered communications.
		This will be the, from the business point of view, will be the trend.
		And even consumers.
		If you go over to Europe, everybody has a cell phone.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, sure.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I know.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		We're going to see more and more of those being delivered by satellite.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So, in other words, even the shielded satellites, if it's a big enough EMP from the EMP, a big enough flare or coronal mass ejection, even the shielded satellites might go down.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		There's no doubt in my mind that they will go down.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		How many?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		How many?
		Well, it won't take that many.
		As you point out, we lost one nationwide.
		All the credit card machines wouldn't work and a lot of other things.

		The End Well, I guess what I should be asking here is we can all see the signs with regard to the weather.
		There's hardly any argument left among the average person about the weather changes we're now undergoing.
		And we know what's coming pretty much with the sun, although not to the scale described by Gordon.
		But if this occurs and if there is a shift anywhere from 90 to 180 degrees, most people want to know what that really is going to mean for us, I think.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		It may be much less than that.
		It may be a matter of a series of, I've seen a series of seven to eight degree shifts.
		Oh, so have I. And so, you know, but it wouldn't matter even if you had a couple of degrees.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, what I've seen, what I've noted on the show, Gordon, is kind of a drift.
		It'll drift seven degrees or so, and then it'll come back.
		And that's been going on in the last couple of years.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
		In my map, my future map of the world, I said things to look for is that we would have these magnetic shifts of about seven to eight degrees, and there would be a series of three of these things that would occur.
		What that means is that should that occur, should we have a major or a significant shift?
		There's two kinds of shifts.
		One is a magnetic shift where the pole shifts.
		And we have lots of scientific evidence that that's occurred hundreds, if not thousands, of times in the past.
		We know that through core samples that they've drilled deep in the Earth, studying magnetites, and they can tell the direction of the magnetic field.
		So they know it has shifted.
		We have no evidence whatsoever that the Earth itself has tumbled in space, which would be a geophysical shift where the whole Earth itself kind of shifts over.
		So my information is kind of focused on the magnetic shifts being triggered by solar activity.
		So that's been a constant in my information.
		What it means is that we would immediately change weather patterns in a matter of hours.
		We could see a shifting of seasons, for example.
		It could be that severe.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, how else do they account for the woolly mammoths with the green things in their mouths and bellies that they have found in the ice?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I mean, how else could you account for that?
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Well, it depends on what scientific group is studying it.
		There is no consensus whatsoever.
		It's one of those enigmas like the Great Pyramid.
		But, you know, you do know one thing.
		One of the things they do know is they know when it happened.
		I mean, first it was, well, last ice age was at this date, you know, plus or minus two, three thousand years.
		Now, then they got it down to, well, it happened within a couple of years.
		Now they're at the point where they know exactly almost to the week when those mammoths died.
		And they knew that because the buttercups, the things they were feeding on at that time, they knew when they would be in bloom.
		So by studying the seeds, they were able to tell, you know, the month it would be in.
		They were able to tell several things by studying many of them.
		And from that study, they know that snow piled up so extensive that they just kept walking on top of each other and stacking them up like cord would.
		And so something happened 12,000 years ago, 11,500 years ago, that changed weather patterns to shift instantly.
		I believe that what happened is that when the plate that was supporting Atlantis let go, it entirely disrupted the magnetic field and also the jet stream, or the Gulf Stream.
		The Gulf Stream at that time would have went to the east and around Atlantis and up the African coast.
		So immediately you changed the ocean currents, you changed the magnetic fields, and so you are now changing the weather and it just sucked in all the cold air from the Arctic, just drove it in and created a whole new ecosystem.
		And that stabilized itself and it's been that way ever since.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, except that it's not all that stable right now.
		And as you look at the current signs that we know about and can document, what's your feeling with regard to where we are?
		I mean, here we are moving along with all these signs we all can see.
		Where are we with respect to the shift?
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Well, the window that I published in 91 and wrote about it extensively in my book was that there would be two time periods where we really had to watch out for the triggers.
		A visionary or a futurist can see things very clearly, but to put a date on things becomes very difficult for any intuitive.
		You have to either have a dream where you actually see a newspaper that gives you a date, or you have to study the signs that you're seeing.
		You know, is it spring?
		Is it summer?
		Is it snow on the ground?
		Can you see lights and plates?
		You have to look for things that give you a clue.
		The clues that I had was that between 98 and 2002, it's a four-year time period, it would be a high-stress area where we would see major weather changes.
		I mean, it would just be off the stop to chart.
		98 was a record-breaker.
		99 beat that.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, yeah, we've got that now.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		So we're halfway through that cycle.
		Then, in 2000 and 2001, those two years, were the times where I saw the sun flaring up unbelievably.
		And so that's like the first phase of it, but I see it continuing on in a lesser or even a more advanced level all the way to the year 2012.
		But the next two years are the crucial years.
		This year, 2000, and 2001.
		And since the sunspot cycle is peaking in 2000, since we have these alignments in 2000, you know, there's enough logical things that we can look at, scientific things we know are going on, that say these could be the trigger.
		Sometimes triggers for events delay things.
		Like we had the eclipse in August.
		And I had said that wherever the eclipse passes through the Balkans, through Turkey, through these areas, we're going to see earth changes.
		And a week later, Turkey was hit.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Really hard, yes.
		Oh, by the way, Gordon, I meant to mention, it went largely unnoticed.
		Well, no, it didn't.
		It was in the news.
		There was a 7.0 earthquake very, very close to me, Gordon.
		It shook the you-know-what out of us here.
		I mean, it really scared us.
		That was a big earthquake here in Professor, Nevada.
		It was out just out a little bit in the desert, and it scared me, but good.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, one of the things I had said for 99 was that we would have to see a quake greater than seven in South America.
		Now, there was a quake in Central America, in Mexico, and then very shortly thereafter, that quake hit you.
		But I'm seeing more weather-related changes than I'm seeing and volcanic changes.
		I think next year is going to be the year of the volcano.
		So I think we're going to see volcanoes coming alive, especially after the spring, you know, as we get into the summer months.
		I think we're going to see a lot of volcanic activity, especially between the topic of cancer and Capricorn.
		There's a 60-degree belt there, 30 degrees above and below the equator.
		I think we're going to see a lot of thermal emissions coming out of the ocean.
		And of course, most of the volcanoes are under the ocean.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So, then, to some degree, Gordon, have you changed your mind?
		You had a very strong vision of a series of earthquakes around the Ring of Fire.
		And I recall you said that if we had a series which damn near completed, you about got it.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
		It had to be four of them.
		Four of them, yeah.
		It was like a 12-part prediction.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And people say, well, you know, it never happened.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, most of it happened, actually.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		11 of the 12 happened, but the 12th one did not happen.
		It happened, but the yield was much, much less.
		There was a scenario that was active during 97, 98, and that scenario probably still is active.
		I have not seen it recently, but it says that if there's a quake in the Indian Ocean that's greater than seven, then that triggers through the internal mechanism of the Earth quakes that would occur in Japan, then South America, then the west coast of the United States.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Do you now think that scenario less likely?
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		No, I think that scenario is still valid.
		don't know when, but the pattern happened three times.
		It's no exception.
		You watch it go bing, bing, bing, and then the last of it just kind of fizzle out.
unidentified		Right.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		You know, which is a good thing.
		I think it's still active, but, you know, the things that I'm seeing now seem to be much more powerful visions than the earthquakes.
		And it deals with massive amounts of water moving around and fire, volcanoes.
		So fire and water is what I see for 2000.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Boy, I hate to say this, but what you're saying now coincides with what a lot of other intuitives have said, particularly about the sun and about the current weather changes.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		As you get closer to an event, you can get a room full of intuitives and you can talk about it, and they may unanimously agree on a particular event.
		And then when you start to look for the dates of that event, it can vary from months, weeks, years, decades.
		But as you get closer to an event, it seems like the psychic strength of the event gets stronger and more people begin to see it.
		So somebody might see something 20 years out, a visionary like H.G. Wells or somebody sees something and everybody else says, you know, you're crazy.
		And then all of a sudden, as you get closer to that event, other people start getting the same idea.
		So it depends on the training of the intuitive of how far off they can see that event.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, that's an interesting, possible, close-in future for us.
		The next question everybody asks is, so what do I do if I think this scenario is one that will play out?
		Do I protect myself?
		Do I go out and say, whatever happens, happens, take me lord?
		Or do I leave it to everybody's gut feeling?
unidentified		What do you do?
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Well, you know, probably nobody has had as much feedback on this type of work than I have and have seen as much as I've seen.
		This is my 20th year in December.
		In fact, as of yesterday, it was 20 years since I received my first image.
		So I played these out.
		And when I did, I finally, I went through phases myself.
		The first phase was not to tell anybody anything.
unidentified		Sure.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Total denial.
		The next phase was that you start having dreams and nightmares.
		And so you say, well, I'll tell some of my closest friends.
		And then you do that, and they react.
		In that case, not positively.
		So you withdraw again.
		And then the dreams and nightmares will continue.
		And then you finally spread it out.
		And then all of a sudden, before you know it, the information is out there.
		Now, for myself, what I've done is I said, I believe that there's no way to totally protect yourself from anything.
		I mean, you can be in a city, like New York City tonight, you know, celebrating, and you can be in a crowd and having a great time and somebody who, you know, who just attacked Harrison, you know, you just don't know what could happen.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, here he was with giant fences and 24-hour day guards and all the rest of it, and it happened anyway.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		So the most important thing, though, is that if you get locked into fear, then you're a goner.
		Because fear will take over, and you're no longer able to take advantage of your God-given abilities of intuition.
		And intuition is not something that you have to train for 10 years and do yoga.
		It's something that you have, and you just have to learn how to wake it up and then learn how to trust it.
		But there's certain things that I believe that, at least what I did for my family, I did the first thing.
		I said, well, what if we, if I'm Y2K?
		I have a preparedness kit.
		I have one in my car.
		I have one in our home.
		We're moving towards a total off-the-grid, as I understand you are now.
		Yes.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes, I am.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		So we're moving towards that point.
		And then having done that, I forget about it.
		I just don't deal with it anymore.
unidentified		Get it done.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I'm ready.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		I've done what I can do.
		And then what I do is I make sure I spend my time trying to be centered and listen to the little urges inside that say, you know, don't do this or do this.
		And sometimes it just says, don't do anything now.
		That's the hardest part.
		You know, listening to the fact of do nothing, wait for the next cycle to come along, you know, for your next guidance.
		So, you know, the final clue is that you have to really go deep within and you have to learn to trust what you're getting.
		And then if you're following that and you're following your path, whatever you need, financially or health-wise or safety, you know, it'll be provided.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Is your guidance about these events becoming more or less urgent than it was, say, a year or two years ago?
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		I would say that when I looked at it back two years ago, it was almost as if it was reading a story that somebody had written, you know.
		And, you know, I'm reading it and I'm saying, oh, well, that's kind of interesting, you know, a little scary, but interesting.
		And now I look at it and I say, you know, I see the physical ramifications of what I said 10 years ago or 20 years ago.
		I see the weather, the deviations of the magnetic field.
		I see all these things occurring.
		So when they start happening like that, you know, the indications are that this window, this next 24-month window, is going to be very critical.
		I'm hopeful that we'll just pass through it and the flares will not be enough to trigger it and we'll just move on.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Do you assign odds to something like this?
		In other words, it does look like there are a lot of negative signs with regard to the next 24 months.
		How negative?
		What chance of passing through it unscathed?
		50, 50, do you think, or what?
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Oh, you know, I don't think anything is 100%.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		But I would have to say that in the next two years we're going to see things that will change the maps of the world, and I would have to say it's 90%.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		90%.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		That does not mean that it's the end of civilization.
		It just means that we're going to see massive changes on the Earth, magnetically, weather-wise.
		Because when I look through the future, I see people in the civilizations, and people look a little differently, and the technology looks differently.
		But I see them, and I see communities, and so I know that we get through this time period.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Man continues.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right, as he probably always has in one form or another.
		All right, we'll break it right here.
		My guest is Gordon Michael Scallion, and I'm very honored to have him here this night.
		And I'm very honored to have my wife here, who's in a strange-looking hat right now of some sort.
		She'll bend down for the camera.
		And oh, it's a 2000 hat.

		Fireworks go off over Times Square, New York.
		Packed in behind metal barriers, the crowd goes wild.
		Unaware that police just reported arresting one man nearby with a loaded unlicensed rifle, but no other trouble reported.
		Our live coverage continues with TBS News correspondent Lou Miliano barely able to hear, I'll bet, with all their shouting, hugging, and kissing.
		What an absolutely incredible display, a thrilling outpouring of emotion, every imaginable response to the climax of the parting of the century.
		An explosion of cheers as that huge, descending, sparkling crystal ball emblazoned the brilliant 2000 confetti cannons are creating a blizzard of color, showering the hugs and the kisses and the tears down here in the street.
		And over all of this, a spectacular fireworks display, turning night into day, with all of the hourly time zone dancers and huge puppets and pageantry returning now with this crowd going absolutely wild.
		With more now, back to Dan Revere.
		That's Lumiliano live here in Times Square.
		And where did President Clinton speak at the giant Washington, D.C. celebration on the mall where CBS News White House correspondent Peter Mayer is standing by?
		Peter?
		This is the crowning moment of the national New Year's celebration here on the Washington Mall.
		President Clinton has just ignited a symbolic fuse that is turning the Washington Monument into a huge Roman candle.
		Hundreds of small rocket-shaped sparklers are cascading, sending a fountain of fireworks off the sides of the towering monument.
		It's called the midnight moment here as the memories of 1999 flow into the hopes for 2000 and beyond.
		Reporting live, I'm Peter Mayer, CBS News with the president at the Lincoln Memorial.

		Our hostage negotiators and the FBI are in contact with these people.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Police were tipped with the hostage taken by a frantic phone call from inside the bank.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		He may be best remembered as the attorney general who defied Richard Nixon over the Watergate investigation.
unidentified		Elliot Richardson has died at age 70.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		In 1973, Richardson refused Nixon's order to fire Special Prosecutor Archibald Cox.
unidentified		Another look at our top story: the crowd's going wild in New York's Times Square, where more than 1 million people from all around the world have gathered to say so long to 1999 and hello to a new year and a new millennium.
unidentified		For now, that famous square is the center of the universe.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I'm Sam Litt Sr., CBS News.
unidentified		I feel it in my tongue.
		Love is all around me.
		And so the feeling grows This way It's everywhere I go.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Good morning.
unidentified		The new millennium is on our shores.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Are you watching New York?
unidentified		Incredible.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Only in America does the giant sign come down, the giant ball, the tetrahedron fall.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And as the new year, as the new millennium touches America, the tetrahedron touches the Discover Card sign.
unidentified		Richard Belsingla Kingdom of High from West of the Rockies dial 1-800-6188255.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		East of the Rockies, 1-800-825-5033.
unidentified		First-line callers may rechart at 1-775-727-1222.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Or use the wildcard line at 1-775-727-1295.
unidentified		To rechart on the full free international line, call your AC and C operator and ask the dial 800-893-0903.
unidentified		This is Coast to Coast AM with Art Bell on the Premier Radio Network.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That's who we are.
		Welcome to the new Millennium on the East Coast, and they're showing on the various networks.
		All the cities up and down the East Coast celebrating its absolutely spectacular.
		But as I said, just in a slightly cynical way, as you look at Times Square, the giant ball with all these rotating tetrahedron things comes down and nearly banged into the Discover card sign.
		But maybe for us, maybe for us here in the West, that's just about the way it ought to be, huh?
		Anyway, it looks like everybody's having a lot of fun, and it looks safe so far.
		Cross your fingers, knock on wood.
		It's still early.
		But the new millennium is now on our shores, folks.
		And it's headed toward us here in the West.
		At the speed of the sun.
		Anyway, we'll be right back.
		Okay, the Sea Crane Company is open right now, right this very minute.
		So if you're at home and you would like something really inexpensive, you want a really good buy, it's a tonight-only sale.
		The Zeit Atomic Clock, normally $79.95, now $59.95.
		I told you about it.
		The Beijing Classic with a light, $109.95 tonight.
		The Sanjin ATS 909, shortwave radio, and so much more.
		Normally $259.95, now $239.95.
		And now, the CC Expedition Light, which is seven brilliant LED C-cell flashlight, it's a C-cell flashlight.
		Well, it's not a flashlight.
		It's like a flashlight.
		It makes as much light as a regular flashlight.
		The LEDs will last 100,000 hours.
		This is one powerful son of a gun.
		This is the king of all LED lights.
		And it's just $59.95.
		And if you order two tonight only, as the new millennium races across our land now, our nation, two, you can buy two for $119.90, $119.90.
		And get a free CC trek light, a $34.95 value, free of charge, along with it.
		So there you have it, the Trek Light, which has not been in much stock.
		You can't keep them in stock.
		You can get it now, along with the other items I mentioned, because the Sea Crane Company is spending their New Year's at work.
		That's where they are.
		So if you want to call them, call them right now at 1-800-522-8863.
		That's 1-800-522-8863, the Sea Crane Company.
unidentified		I'm now the CEO for BuyItNow.com.
unidentified		Hello?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Where's your gun?
		The End All right, as you well know, because I've explained it to you over a period of time, I've started to take some pretty serious alternative energy steps.
		Traditional alternative energy.
		I have a lot of solar panels up and wind generators and that sort of thing.
		But we're facing an interesting situation in the very near future.
		The next 40 years, the next two years aside, the next 40 years will see us run out of oil.
		So we've got to begin to move toward alternative energy in a really big way.
		I'm doing what I can right now, but that's all that's out there to be done at the moment.
		Gordon, what is coming in the world of alternative energy?
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		A lot of the technology that's in the military right now, the black ops, that technology will find its way into the world.
		I don't see it happening in the short term, but I see it coming, you know, definitely in this coming decade.
		It's possible that somewhere around the next five years, it could be sooner, we're going to see it.
		And the technology that I talked about when I was first on your show years ago, was that I saw the fuel cell as the next instrument that would come out by the turn of the century.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		The kind of fuel cells that we hear NASA talk about in the shuttles.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Right.
		And now they're delivering.
		I'm on the list for one myself.
		I expect to have it here shortly.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		What are the claims?
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		What will it do?
		There's several companies.
		PowerPlug is one of the largest ones that are in there.
		And basically, it's large.
		It's the size of perhaps twice the size of a refrigerator currently.
		And basically what it will do is it will produce up to 10 kilowatts of power using it's a hydrogen-based system.
		So they have a container that they load you up with, and you have your own little power plant.
		Now the next evolution of this is they will have a heat reclaimer.
		So not only will it give you power, but it will also give you heating and cooling.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Why not?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Otherwise it goes to waste.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		So by the time they roll out the first units, and they're claiming delivery in 2000, by the time they roll that out, engineering is already pretty much along the way for the second evolution, which will be half the size of the units.
		So fuel cells and that technology being transferred to cars.
		As long as gasoline, as long as oil is cheap, as long as it's cheap, and here in the States, you know, it's really cheap.
		If you go to Europe, it's a whole different ballgame.
		But as long as it's cheap, the internal combustion engine will continue.
		We'll make it more efficient.
		We'll reduce some of the pollutes from it.
		We'll accomplish all of those things.
		We'll make vehicles lighter.
		Therefore, we'll increase the miles per gallon.
		But as soon as oil changes, as soon as something upsets the oil pipeline, that's when you start to see alternative technologies coming forward.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That's also when you see conflict.
		Yes.
		In other words, are there wars in our future?
		Are they going to be over oil, water?
		What will we fight about if we fight, or will it all stop?
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		You know, as an idealist, I would wish that this new millennium would mean that we would never have another war.
		We would never have another terrorist.
		We wouldn't see shootings in schools of our children, by children.
		However, I know that the speed that the planet is running right now, going faster and faster, that we're heading for someplace in destiny where there'll be great changes.
		And wars have been part of our lifestyle forever.
		In the future, however, if I look past the year 2012, I don't see that.
		I see a time period where there isn't this kind of wars.
		But I still see a war, there's a screen of that war and it's still there and it doesn't go away.
		And it starts off in Turkey and goes to the Middle East.
		I don't know when.
		I just see it.
		I see it as one of those middle screens, which means that it hasn't gone away.
		But that could disrupt oil.
		But the next technology that will come after the fuel cell will be magnetic in nature.
		Magnetically, devices that are magnetically driven, but they're induced by an energy system contained within the Earth.
		It's like riding on the Earth's magnetic field.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Right.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Right.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		And so, since the magnetic field is all over the Earth, it's a simple matter of riding it and coupling to that energy.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay, well, that begins to move toward what we began with tonight, Tesla technology.
unidentified		Yes.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		And I believe it is the same thing.
		I believe it's the standing wave technology that he was referring to that's always present and it's there.
		It's a whole different system.
		I mean, you know, if you watch lightning storms and you see what really happens in this new and incredible photography, this high-speed photography, you watch this bolt from the Earth go up to the cloud and then a strike coming back down.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That's correct.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		And so, you know, there's a potential difference between the cloud and the earth, but the earth itself, as Tesla found out, is full of electricity.
		It's totally, I mean, we think of it as ground earth, but it's really, relative to the atmosphere, it's highly charged.
		And we will use that technology, that magnetic field technology, to power devices in the future.
		Before the decade is out, that technology will be in place.
		And it could come earlier.
		Crises aims to bring on technology faster.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes, it does.
		We are in the longest sustained economic boom in our nation's history.
		We have never seen anything like it.
		People refer to it as now the endless, the endless economic boom.
		And is it really endless?
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		It certainly does seem that way, doesn't it?
		I mean, right now, here it is.
		It's January 1st in the East Coast.
		It's a new year, which means that half of the people who predicted that the market was going to go down were wrong.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		No, no, the market ended up at a record high.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		The NASDAQ crested 4,000.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		I mean, it's just the people who said that it was going to go down, you know, the market went up.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		And I was one of those who felt that the market would do a correction near the end of the year.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		But it didn't.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		It didn't.
		And it's defying Things, but if you follow any cycle, I mean, there will be a correction.
		What's driving the market, which is becoming an international thing, of course, is the technology stocks.
		And, you know, you've got a few stocks that are heavily weighted, you know, the Qualcomms or the Microsofts.
		I mean, you've got these few stocks here who are moving so fast, and yet there's nothing solid.
		I mean, if you ask, if they had to liquidate, the value is not there.
		It's so overinflated.
		It's all based on potential.
		But I see the technical market continuing to race ahead.
		I do see the Fed stepping in next year a couple times.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So in other words, the interest rates probably will bump a couple of times a couple years.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		I think a couple times before we even get to the summer.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, really?
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Trying to cool it down.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, and I still see this correction.
		I still see it there.
		Don't know what's going to happen, but I still feel there's going to be a correction.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Everybody has always asked about the market.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And so when we're at 2001, which a lot of purists suggest is the real new millennium, although they've lost that battle, what do you think the market will be like there?
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		It is entirely possible that next year, even with a correction, that we could see a jump of $3,000, $4,000, $5,000 on the style, for example.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Wow.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		We could see that kind of a jump.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Holy smokes.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, I think we're going to, you know, the NASDAQ is the one to really watch.
		That's the one that's kind of pulling everything else along.
		Now, if there's a, you know, a lot of people didn't pull out of the market or take their profits yesterday because of tax reuse.
		You know, the market was high.
		Y2K wasn't looking like it was going to be a big thing, which you and I both said it wouldn't be.
		And then, but as soon as we click off into the next business day, when Monday comes along, I know.
		We probably will start hearing about the Y2K problems and software.
		We'll start hearing little problems.
		But I think at that time, you're going to see some profit taking.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You know, it's really interesting, Gordon, that the mass media is reporting everything as hunky-dory, which it is right now as midnight crosses these various time zones.
		But when they do go back to business on Monday, there's going to be a significant, I believe, amount of disruption.
		Not world-ending, but a lot of companies are going to have a nasty surprise waiting for them.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		There's going to, you know, I think we're going to see more of that in third world countries.
		You know, Russia put a lot of work on their defense system with U.S. assistance.
		The NASA did it on their oil fields.
		We did the same thing in Saudi and other places.
		But, you know, those countries, there's a lot of old technology.
		And I think that that's where you're going to see the disruptions.
		And then that in turn will eventually, which may take months, affect us in imports.
		So, you know, we may see these changes now.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So Y2K is not over because everything's okay at midnight in 2000.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		We need to look over a period of several months to see these.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		So there will be problems that we'll call it, but it's not a disaster end of the world event.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Obviously so.
		And it looks like the one thing that I was concerned about, which was the power, apparently is going to be okay.
		It might even be a little early to say that, but it does look pretty much as though it's going to be okay.
		What about...
		I don't know whether you can look at this and whether you can see it, but human beings are...
		You know, we're in kind of a strange...
		But as you well know, our young people are just absolutely out of control.
		I mean, horrid things are happening, Gordon.
		And socially, what do you see ahead?
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		I see some major problems.
		There's a couple of things that are just, you know, really accelerated now.
		Manic depression, for example, is really raging.
		The Internet, with all of its wonderfulness, is like anything.
		It has both sides of the coin.
		And it's very possible that it contributes somewhat, not exclusively by any means, but it sets up at least the conditions for people to lose sight of things.
		The family unit is in trouble, has been in trouble.
		Socially, I see the speed up of the earth driving changes in social behaviors and patterns.
		We also can look to the family unit.
		We can look to the fact that, you know, if we go back to when you and I were growing up, you know, we were playing with ham radio, we had a family, things were different.
		Today, you know, both parents are working.
		Daycare is part of life.
		It's very busy.
		It's very competitive.
		Everything is running very, very fast.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Everybody's on the internet.
		Ham radio is dying.
		As a matter of fact, by the way, they just restructured ham radio, the big announcement from the FCC, and they've reduced the code speed for any class of license down to five words per minute.
		Gordon, did you know that?
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		I heard that the ARE had proposed it.
		I didn't know that it had...
		I know that I had gone down and I have an advanced class, and I had taken the code back in the days when you could go down to an FCC station.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Same here.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		And so I understand that even that class is going to be discontinued.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That's right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It's all done by fellow hams now.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So things are rapidly changing, and they're trying to do this to draw people back into ham radio, and I hope they do it because we need a technical base in this country, people who know how to do things beyond pulling out one black box and putting in another black box to fix what's wrong.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That's not a real technician.
unidentified		Right.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Also, anytime there's a hurricane, a flood, a cyclone, a natural disaster of any type, you will find a ham there with his radio relaying messages.
		That's one of the, you know, I've been involved with the civil defense for 30 years.
		And that's one of the parts of ham radio that I always felt very good about.
		I felt that was a contribution that I could make.
		You know, since my station is here for our town if they need it.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That's right.
		As is mine.
		A lot of hams are, of course, standing by tonight.
		All right, we're going to break here.
		And when we come back, I'm going to open up the phone lines for Gordon Michael Scallion.
		So if you have a question for our nation's Premier Intuitive, that's what we're going to do when we come back.
		Gordon Michael Scallion here tonight.
unidentified		All right, and it's coming home.
		They gotta get right back to where we started going.
		Love is good.
		Love is good.
		They gotta get right back to where we started going.
		Oh, come on.
		It's the new and the day.
		It's the new and the day.
		you first came my way I said no one would take your way and if you get AMA 40 KXNT.
		Dr. Lump.
		Yeah!
		Happy New Year.
		I'll tell you what, there's a big party going on out there.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You've got to see New York and Washington, Atlanta.
		They're going absolutely bonkers with every reason to.
		It'll never happen to us again.
		Not the ones here now.
		We've just blitzed the thousand-year mark on the East Coast.
		Congratulations to all of you who made it.
		Going to the phones with Gordon Michael Scallion next.

		You can feel it.
		It's electric.
		And by the way, the electricity is still on out there.
		We'll get back to Gordon Michael Scallion going to the phones next.
		How's your internet provider?
		Now, I'm not talking about Y2K problems.
		I'm talking about normal times, which, by the way, they are right now.
		And even in normal times, an awful lot of Y2K, Y2K, an awful lot of internet providers out there serve up something less than ideal.
		Actually, totally foul connections, slow speeds, non-connectivity, people who won't help you when you call and generally tell you it's your fault.
		Call us when you've got it fixed, that kind of thing.
		MindSpring is such a better place to be.
		If you would like to email me, that's where you're going to find me, Art Bell.
		That's me, A-R-T-B-E-L-L at mindspring.com.

unidentified		And they are.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So call them even now at 1-888-677-7464.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That's 1-888-677-7464.
unidentified		All these years I like to tell you what I'm thinking, but I'm too much of a gentleman.
		Look at this.
		The way you wanted me to build her, she could take four compartments opened up completely.
		But after that, there's too much weight.
		She's going to come down at the head.
		All the pumps working.
		Maybe we got an hour, maybe two.
		And then she's going to break.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Right here by the engine compartment.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Right there by the reciprocating engines.
unidentified		That's where she's going to break.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		How do I know that?
unidentified		Because I've break the bloody ship.
		I know how she lives.
		I don't know how she's going to die.
		That audio spirit doctor.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		By the way, everybody, Gordon Michaels Gallion's book, Notes from the Cosmos, is available, I would assume, in stores and Amazon.com and all the usual places.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Is that still true, Gordon?
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		It is true.
		And last year when I was on all the stores, the Barnes and Nobles, everybody sold out.
		So this year they said that they were going to make sure they had them in stock so they can get them to there.
		And if they're out of stock or they can't get it, they can always call my office.
		And one of our staff would be happy to mail them out a copy.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Do you want to give out that number?
unidentified		Sure.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		This is Monday through Friday, 9 to 5 Eastern.
		The offices will be closed until Monday.
		And it's 603-363-4164.
		And the royalties from this book goes to charities.
		And my prime one is American Red Cross.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		The American Red Cross.
		Notes from the Cosmos area code 603-363-4164 or in bookstores, no doubt, across America.
		All right, to the phones we go.
		First time caller line, you're on the air with Gordon Michaels Callion.
		Happy New Year.
unidentified		Well, Happy New Year to you, too.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay, you're a little hard to hear, so yell out.
unidentified		Happy New Year to you, both.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Thank you.
unidentified		It's a real pleasure and privilege to get through.
		And my questions are about the visions in the future.
		By the way, I'm from San Diego.
		Okay.
		His name's Donna.
		Hi, Donna.
		He mentions a couple of things, if it's possible, I would like to know more about, if you can share it.
		One, changes in maps.
		Is it anything hazy or fuzzy that further he could say about that?
		And I was also interested that he said people look a little different when this is all over.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That's right.
		All right.
		Well, let's see if we can press him on that.
		You have a map.
		I have it out in my hot tub room.
		It covers a whole wall.
		It's beautiful.
		It's a future map of the world.
		And is there anything that since the publication of that map, Gordon, if you were to redo today, you would change?
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		No, it's remained the same.
		Some of the windows of things happening, some of them are earlier than I thought.
		It will happen earlier.
		Some of them will happen later.
		So there's a little time fluctuation there.
		But the map remains the same.
		I have seen no changes in it for the past three, four, five years, whatever.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Some map.
		All right, and the people, she's right.
		You mentioned they looked a bit different.
		Any further clarification on that?
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Yes.
		Let me go back to the map for a minute.
		In my book, I do describe the kind of changes that will be going on.
		So there's a dialogue in there that you can see it.
		And if you go to my website, there's a map there that you can click on by continent, and it'll give you a general idea of what the changes are like.
		And that website is matrixinstitute.com.
		The changes I've seen in people, 1988 I did a paper and distributed it, and actually published it about these children that I saw that were coming into the world that were different.
		I described them as children of the blu-ray.
		And these children somehow have these very special, unique gifts.
		They were, a lot of them wouldn't eat meat, for example, just at birth.
		They just wouldn't eat it.
		They couldn't handle meat.
		They were very bright, highly intuitive.
		They tended to almost, and now, of course, it's been several decades later where I meet parents now and they remind me that they had heard that back in the 80s.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So you're talking about an evolutionary change?
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		It is.
		It's another sub-race of a people.
		And the changes of the race are due to the changes in our solar activity.
		The position of our Earth relative to the Sun.
		The axis angle is going to change.
		And all that is going to create, bring about changes, just like a tree will go through changes, or an animal, for example, in the winter will get thicker fur as part of its natural cycle.
		If it's warm all the time, then the animal will change.
		It'll adapt, just as we will.
		And so these children, these Blu-ray children, are what I saw occurring in the 90s.
		And then as we get into the year 2012, 2015, we see the people who are born, not the people who are born now, but the people who are born at those years, if you looked at them, they would look different.
		Almost the pigmentation is different of their skin.
		Whether you were black or white or red, makes no difference.
		The pigmentation of the skin would give it almost a cast of very, very, you know, very, ever so faint blue.
		But this is like the new generations, if you will, the new millennium children.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, we already have children in Australia who are required to wear headgear when they're outside going to school, whatever, because of the thinning of the ozone.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And is that the kind of thing that produces an evolutionary change?
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		That's one of the things that would do it.
		And if the atmosphere was changed drastically, where we were bringing more solar radiation in, that would do it.
		I think what happens is that the sun changes and therefore the earth changes.
		And then the vibration of the earth, the resonance of the earth, is actually going to change, I believe.
		And that's going to modify our DNA.
		And I think this is what brings about the change.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes, that would do it.
		That would do it all right.
		Wow, Cardeline, you're on the air with Gordon Michaelscallion in New Hampshire.
unidentified		Hello.
		Good day.
		This is Karen in Houston.
		How are you doing, Art?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Hi, Karen.
unidentified		Hey, Gordon.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Hi, Karen.
unidentified		I'm so glad you're on.
		I really am.
		In a nutshell, you're putting so much together, but my question is, how do we pack our nutshell?
		I mean, all of this that you're telling us, how do we draw it all together and kind of, you know, put together what we had before, what you said about the pyramid, in material, technology, spirit?
		How can we, in baby steps, like one, two, three, keep this going?
		Now that we have an understanding of it, we need to apply whatever we're made of to make this come about.
		And it may be baby steps, but we can kind of lay a better path for those children you're talking about.
		And I have witnessed some of these children that you're talking about.
		That's why I'm asking.
		How do we assist our future generations because nothing fizzles?
		We don't want to go backwards.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		I don't think we will go backwards.
		I think it's a natural process.
		One of the things that I hear parents tell me is that their children, ages three years old, four years old, are really becoming the parents.
		I hear this over and over again of how parents are learning from their children.
		And not only computers that they can do, young people can master computers at young ages, five, six, seven.
		It's more than that.
		They have an understanding.
		There's a lot of prophecies if we look at biblical, Native American.
		Almost every culture talks about this millennium of peace that's coming, which we have just entered, and you will in another hour or two.
		This period of time, it's like the earth gets bathed, if you will, in this spiritual matrix.
		And what it does is it floods you with this incredible energy, and then you have a choice.
		You can take the energy, take it in, and work with it, or you can deny it.
		And of course, this is true with anything in life.
		But the vibration of this earth and the sun and everything that's going on now is happening so fast.
		I mean, the changes that I've seen in the speed in the past two years is unbelievable.
		And if I look back 10 years, you know, or 20 years, I can just see we're like this freight train that's pulled out of a station and now we're starting to really roll.
		What we have to do is once you become aware of something, there's various phases we go through.
		We can go through denial, we can go through anger.
		Eventually, depending on our path, we come to acceptance.
		And there's only one thing that I have found that we can really do as a society, and that is that we have to be constantly taking some time every day to kind of go inside and ask those questions that are important to us and trust that there is a greater universe of intelligence.
		There is a God.
		And regardless of your race, your belief system, it's this universal force.
		And the window for communications with this force is opening up wide.
		And for a thousand years, we're going to have this wide open window where it is going to be easy for everybody to be a visionary.
		If we choose to take the time to listen, and that means that we can't one day say, I'm too busy, I've got to do this, you have to make the time.
		It doesn't have to be much.
		I suggest, in my courses, I tell my students, take seven minutes a day.
		And in that seven minutes, get a notebook.
		Write down whatever questions.
		If your question, Karen, was that, you know, how can I be of service during these times, my family, to the friends, to neighbors?
		And you do the seven-minute exercise, and you do it every day faithfully at the same time, it sets up a window of communications with spiritual forces.
		Those forces are within you and without you.
unidentified		It's a uniform energy system.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		And when you start hearing things at first, you'll be amazed.
		And you write them in your journal.
		And I find that if people do it for 21 consecutive days without missing a day or a time, that their intuition levels are off the charts.
		It's almost scary.
		I get letters from students saying, you know, I did this and now I'm really nervous.
		And that's when you really have to trust.
		You have to keep it going.
		If you miss a day in the 21 days, then you need to start all over again from day one.
unidentified		Well, I understand what you mean by trust because I do trust that a grand creator does not make mistakes.
unidentified		So everything must be in place, and so I feel like if we can really draw on that, then we will be following the right lead.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, the grand creator may not, but we do.
		We're capable of mistakes, and so that was good instruction.
		East of the Rockies, you're on the air with Gordon Michael Scallion.
unidentified		Hello.
unidentified		Happy New Year from New York, Art.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, how's it going there?
unidentified		Things are going fine.
		All essential services up and running.
		I'm calling from Yonkers, which is about 15 miles north of Times Square.
		We saw the fireworks go up.
		It was very spectacular.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, it really was.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I saw it too.
unidentified		Oh, it was gorgeous.
		I'm listening to you, of course, on 77WABC.
		You may be interested to know that Curtis Lewa broke in on you twice.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, no surprise.
unidentified		Once for five minutes during your 10 to 10.30 Eastern Time segment, and then once again about an hour later for above five minutes, but he didn't last.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, he needs to get a life.
unidentified		I'd just like you to know that you have a lot of fans, especially in Monmouth County, New Jersey.
		Bob and Nancy, a lot of folks listening to you all over the East Coast, I'm sure, tonight.
		Thank you.
		I'd like to ask Gordon something, specifically referring to the continent of Australia.
		And Happy New Year, Gordon.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Happy New Year to you, too.
unidentified		What is your name?
		Something has tweaked my interest in Queensland near Cooktown.
		I wondered if you have any impressions concerning that part of the continent.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		In 1979, one of the first series of visions I got that was from space looking down on the Earth was Australia.
		And in fact, for the first probably a month or so, all I saw was the South Pole and Australia.
		And so every time my vision would come up, I would write it down.
		And then I had a series of dreams that told me why I was seeing New Zealand and Australia.
		And it was because that in the future, New Zealand in particular, was going to be a major communications hub of the world.
		It was going to disseminate information of a spiritual nature, not religious nature.
		And that areas such as Queensland were going to become almost like sacred spaces, places.
unidentified		So there's, speaking of sacred spaces, that's the reason why I called you.
		My name is John, by the way.
		There is an enigmatic pile in Queenstown called Black Mountain.
		It's a pile of boulders 1,000 feet high and several miles long, which has strange significance to the Aborigines there.
		There's no way to account for a half billion ton pile of boulders.
		And I just wanted to know if you had heard anything about that or if that affected you perhaps the same way as the Great Pyramid at Giza might have.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Ayers Rock did.
		Ayers Rock, the Red Rock, had a great effect on me.
		The pile that you're speaking of, I did have a whole series of visions about that part of the world.
		And what I saw was this great deluge that took and moved huge boulders and stones and just packed it into canyons.
		And if it was like open plains, it would just dump it wherever the water would end.
		And I'm quite certain that what you're talking about is that area.
unidentified		Well, given its proximity to the coast of Australia, it's only about 50 miles from the coast.
unidentified		So that might jive with the Oceania, the Lemuria extinction phenomenon, perhaps.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		I believe so.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
unidentified		Thank you very much.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay, Governor, thank you.
		We don't have a whole lot of time left, Gordon.
		We could take calls for a million years here, or at least another 1,000.
		But let me do it one more time.
		Your book is Notes from the Cosmos, and it's available in bookstores, we think, nationwide, certainly Amazon.com, and or you may make a phone call and get a copy on the way.
		It's area code 603-363-4164.
		And with that, is there anything else you'd like to tell everybody?
		I mean, it is a fairly momentous, the new millennium is about to crash over the Midwest time zone in a few moments.
		Anything you want to tell everybody?
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		I'm very, you know, especially tonight watching CNN go through the different time zones and seeing that, you know, for these moments, there's kind of an international unity, you know, that goes beyond politics and religion.
		It's a universal celebration.
		And so I'm very hopeful about things that I'm seeing.
		I do know that we are going to make great spiritual strides in the next year, amazingly so.
		And it does not mean that everything will stop because it's the end of the cycle.
		So we're going to see challenges and difficulties.
		But the potential for personal growth will be greater than it's ever been in our lifetimes.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So in other words, there is more than just a date change.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Correct.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Gotcha.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Gordon, I really want to thank you for taking time.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		My pleasure.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		on this night to be here.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Happy New Year to you.
		I understand your wife is there.
		Happy New Year to her and to all of my students and readers.
		Happy New Year to you as well.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Happy New Year.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Bye-bye.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Bye-bye.
		That's Gordon Michael Scallion, folks.
		Ramona Bell's right here.
unidentified		Coming up on midnight.
unidentified		Central Time.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Central Time, that's right.
		All right, folks.
		Get ready to celebrate in the middle part of the country because the millennium's about to cross over your head.
		And it is more than just a date.
		You can feel it.
		You can really feel it when you're watching the coverage.
		I'm Arpell, and this is Coast to Coast AM extended version.
unidentified		I can read the writing on the wall.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		AMA 40, KXNT.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Las Vegas, are you ready?
unidentified		Can we feel it?
		One, two, three, four.
		Here on Sunday's life, almost as big a crowd as the one is here for the 4th of July fireworks.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		It's a lot holder.
unidentified		A few blocks away, and Mayor Daly is playing host to two people from almost every country on earth.
		And here, fireworks are going on in many, many different directions as the way the light show continues here in Chicago.
		I'm Steve Miller, TBS News, live in Chicago.
		Now the CBS reporter Rob Medford in Fort Worth, Texas.
		This is Fort Worth where the West begins.
		We now start the new millennium.
		Celebration is dapped out with 20,000 people.
		We got clear skies.
		The stars are big and bright.
		This midnight is fighting with a laser light showing 20 minutes of fireworks all hotter than Chili Pepper.
		Across North Texas, no Y2K problems so far.
		People are welcoming 2,000, Texas style, with lots of hooting and hollering.
		I'm Rob Bilford live in Fort Worth, down to the crusted city of New Orleans, and reporter Dave Holmes, Julian WWL.
		Confetti cannons have just showered the hundreds of thousands of people gathered here in the French Quarter in Confetti.
		We're waiting for a huge fireworks display.
		And there it goes.
		Happy New Year from New Orleans, where babies are absolutely wild.
		A massive crowd shoulder to shoulder packed into the French Quarter, having a wonderful time.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Now let's head to Dan Reviv in Times Square.
unidentified		And here in New York, the crowds are dispersing.
		Some people are still cheering.
		Police said they arrested one man about 10 blocks away with a loaded, unlicensed rifle in his car, but otherwise not much trouble for disorderly conduct arrests.
		The lights have stayed on.
		More on the national picture at the CBS News Y2K desk.
		Correspondent Howard Ahrenstein joins us live.
		Dan, some minor problems, but mostly tonight it sounded like this from the FAA's Monty Belgium.
		We can say with certainty that we've had absolutely no safety problems, no breakdowns or interruptions in any of our active air traffic control systems.
		Cash is still spitting out of ATMs, water is still flowing through the pipes, and computers are still working.
		Officials say the transition appears to be successful, but they warn problems could still emerge.
		Live at the CBS News Y2K desk, I'm Howard Erenstein.
		President Clinton led the New Year's celebrations on the mall in Washington between the Washington Monument and the Lincoln Memorial, where huge screens showed a documentary film made by Steven Spielberg, in part narrated by Mr. Clinton.
		People all over the world seem to be having a happy new year so far.
		Here's CBS News reporter Elaine Cobb in Paris, where 12 o'clock came seven hours ago.
		The show is over now.
		It's time to go in search of a party.
		An estimated 1.2 million people thronged the Champs-Élysées for midnight and a stunning 90-minute music and light show.
		11 giant Ferris wheels lit up the avenue.
		The Eiffel Tower danced its way into the year 2000 with a dazzling fireworks display.
		Elaine Cobb, CBS News on the Champ-Élysées, Paris.
		Stay with us in 57 Minutes, the New Year's Moment in the Mountain Time Zone.
		For now, from Times Square, New York, this is CBS News.
		I've had it with this.
		America, America, God shed his grace on me.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		A celebration to take the nation into the 21st century.
		Thousands crowded onto the mall to enjoy music like that and to ooh and awe, a huge fireworks display.
		I'm Sam Litzinger, CBS News.
unidentified		Commercials are more.
		I'm Dean DeBoer with the exclusive AnkiWeather forecast, partly to mostly cloudy overnight with a low 37.
		For New Year's Day, it won't be as mild with times of clouds and sunshine, a high 59.
		Patchy Cloud, Saturday night.
		Patchy Cloud, Saturday night.
		She's got company, my soul.
		And she knows I'm not too lover.
		But she lets me down every time.
		Can't make her smile.
		She's no one's lover tonight.
		I'm so sorry.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It's in the middle part of the country now.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Happy New Year all across the middle U.S. The Millennium is here.

art bell ▲ ● ▼		Interesting time to be alive, isn't it?
		It's here, and it's coming to where I am shortly.
		In the Midwest and the East Coast now, you're in a new millennium.
		How does it feel?
		Do you feel any different?
		So far, so good.
		Y2K-wise, a few Minor glitches thus far.
		And for those of you who think I might be disappointed that there's not more, I'm not, I could not be happier.
		And if you prepared for Y2K, good for you.
		Stay prepared because there are interesting times ahead.
		As far as the new millennium is concerned, so far, boy, I'm telling you, so good.
		All across the world, it's been pretty smooth.
		We'll see what happens first day back at business.
		At any rate, we're going to kind of wing it for the rest of the show.
		We may bring in a few people that we know here and there to have a word or two with you.
		But we're going to continue taking predictions, of course, as we roll out the final opportunity to make predictions for this new year.
		Then we close out the list of predictions, and, of course, we review them as I'm about to review some in a few moments for you made last year for 1999.
		Batting record, so-so.
		If you're on the internet now and you have a provider, then, well, you know what it's already like.
		If you're not on the internet yet and maybe you've got a computer for Christmas, well, why don't you start out the right way and you'll not be disappointed with the way things are?
unidentified		Hmm?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		The way you can do that is by joining Mindspring, as I have done.
		If you want to email me, that's how you do it.
		I'm Art Bell at MindSpring.com.
		Why am I there?
		Because they have good, fast connections, because they've got friendly people, because they've got spaminator.
		Takes all that junk email out of your email box.
		All the same reasons you ought to be there, and then, of course, a deal.
		The deal you can't refuse.
		You call them.
		I'm going to give you the number here in a second.
		You can call them right now.
		Use my name and buy one month of service.
		And when you do, lo and behold, they will level upon you two months of service free of charge.

		So call them.
		Here's the number.
		Call now.
		1-888-677-7464.
		It's a toll-free number.
		1-888-677-7464.
		And now, the Seacrane Company, this may happen once a year, if that.
		They're open right now, this minute.
		And we have a whole bunch of new Millennium specials for you going on that you can purchase now.
		You know, this is impulse buying time.
		The Zeit Atomic Clock, discounted to $59.95.
		The Beijing Classic Radio with a light $109.95.
		The Sanjin ATS 909 shortwave receiver, and so much more.
		Discounted tonight to $239.95.
		The CC Expedition Light, a light even the military is now using.
		It's so damn good.
		Discounted, well, the price is $59.95, but tonight you buy two at $119.90 and you get a free CC Trek light, a $34.95 value.
		And now, the CC Radio.
		This is the best radio in the world.
		There's no discount on this tonight.
		Oh, now wait a minute.
		Wait a minute.
		Yes, there is.
		It's still $159.95, but if you buy a CC radio tonight, lo and behold, you get a free CC trek light, a $34.95 value.
		So that's tonight only, folks, and going on right now because the Sea Grain Company will be there for about another hour and 45 minutes or so.
		So call them.
		The best radio in the world without qualification is the CC Radio.
		Go for it.
		Tonight only, you get this big bonus.
		The number is 1-800-522-8863.
		That's 1-800-522-8863.
		The Cream Company.
		Now, let's see.
		I've got a couple of other things that I've got to get done.
		This is confusing.
		All of these hours have got so many hours.
		Eight hours we're going to be on the air tonight.
		But I'm glad to be here.
unidentified		And now the CEO for BuyItNow.com.
		Hello.
		Where's our guys?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right, let me see if I can decipher my own handwriting, and we'll look at a few of the other predictions made.
		Let's see.
		Number 30 made in 1998 for 1999 was terrorism from Iraq in 99.
		I'm going to put a question mark because that is a question mark.
		We never know, do we?
		Number 31 is Hillary runs for president.
		Bonk, but close.
		Close, but no cigar.
		Sorry about that.
		I couldn't resist.
		Close but no cigar.
		She's running for the Senate, apparently.
		Number 32, we will all finally receive pay for our widgets, our money back for our widgets.
		Remember the widget guy?
		Well, Bonk, we have not, although he tried to contact me recently, and I said, well, have you followed through on your promise?
		And I get nothing in return.
		On number 33, Area 51 is found to be nothing but a smokescreen.
		Bonk, it's still there, and it's still doing its thing.
		Number 30, in fact, if anything, we kind of dug up a little piece of proof here recently with the telephone adage we had.
		Remember that?
		We've got that document up there.
		Go look yourself.
		It says Area 51 along with Perumpt, a little of Las Vegas.
		Number 34 was invasion of the Middle East by the USA.
		Bonk, we did Not do that.
		In fact, things are looking rather peaceful over there at the moment.
		Number 35, an entire family of Bigfoot.
		Or would it be big feet or big foots would be discovered?
		Well, either way, bonk.
unidentified		Wrong.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Number 36: The air war with Iraq continues all year long.
unidentified		Ding, ding, ding, ding, ding.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Ding.
		A big ding on that one.
		Number 37.
		Our blessed Constitution to be done away with.
unidentified		Bonk.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That one's made every year, and sure enough, the Constitution remains in full force.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Number 38, Y2K, a general fizzle.
unidentified		Ding, ding, ding, ding.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So far.
		All right.
		Somebody caught that one, I think.
		We'll know more about that next week.
		Now, number 39, Air Force One will crash.
		Bonk.
		It did not crash.
		Although, it had a close encounter.
		A very close encounter.
		Number 40, a major city destroyed by a weapon of mass destruction.
		Well, we've got a little time to go yet, but so far, bonk.
		And we're going to leave that as a hopeful bonk.
		Now, let me see.
		Number 41 is Harley-Davidson.
		Somebody's going to buy Harley-Davidson.
		Now, I'm going to have to put a question mark by that.
		I don't think anybody's bought Harley, but I heard something about Harley.
		I can't recall what it was.
		Number 42, Star Trek, the final year for Star Trek.
unidentified		Bonk.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Star Trek is never going to end.
		Star Trek will go on all our lives.
		Number 43, a change in our constitution.
unidentified		Bonk.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		No change that I know of, unless you consider the continued erosion of it, perhaps.
		A number 44, Y2K, the media event of the year.
		Well, now, that's a different story.
		Even if the ding I gave as the general fizzle is true, was it the story of the year?
		At the beginning of the year, it certainly was.
		Later on, not.
		So I'm giving that a ding and a bonk.
		It was kind of both.
		And then 45, and I'll stop here for a while, the prophecy or a prophecy, no, a single prophecy of Edgar Casey comes true.
		I think that's a bonk, but I don't know.
		I would have to talk to the Casey Foundation.
		I'm putting a question mark by that one.
		Maybe some of you can help me out.
		So there you have it, and we will continue to go through the list from last year shortly.
		But I will now commence to take new predictions.
		And I will resume that at number 44.
		So if you have a prediction to make when you call with whatever you want to say, I will record it, assign it a number.
		Remember, you can make only one prediction.
		It can only be made on the phones, not by email, not by fax, not by carrier pigeon.
		You've got to make it here on the phones so everybody can hear it.
		On my international line, you're on the air.
unidentified		Hi.
		Hello.
		Hello.
		Calling from Israel.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Israel.
unidentified		The sun is up here.
		Birds are singing.
		My electricity still works.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And the world has continued.
unidentified		Yes, just as I sort of expected.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		What time, sir, is it now in Israel?
unidentified		It is 8.19 here.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		8.19 in the morning.
unidentified		In the morning.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And that would be on Saturday morning, right?
unidentified		Saturday morning.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay, so what do you think is going to happen, though, when we get to the business day?
unidentified		Well, that's interesting you bring that up because Israel has the work week.
		It starts with Sunday and ends with Friday.
		We have our weekend on Friday and Saturday, not Saturday and Sunday.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So in other words, you're going to find out a little early.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You're going to find out early.
unidentified		Yeah, we'll be the first country in the world that starts their business week, as I understand it.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Uh-huh.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I'm sorry, where in Israel are you?
unidentified		I'm calling from a place called Beersheva, or on the maps you find it at Beersheba.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay?
unidentified		The negative desert, the southern half of the country.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
unidentified		My climate here is like yours in Perim.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		We're both in the desert.
unidentified		Yeah.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And we both have things buried in the desert, too.
unidentified		Yeah.
unidentified		You're going to sense right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes, I know.
		Well, it's great to hear from Israel on this night.
		And I watched the Middle East celebrations.
		And thank God or Allah or whoever you want to thank, it all seemed to go peacefully well.
unidentified		Yes.
		I prepared for Y2K.
		I was one of the only people I knew who was preparing.
		Although it turns out, reading the newspaper the past day or two, a lot of other people have been secretly preparing as well.
		And I had neighbors over.
		The clock struck midnight.
		The light stayed on.
		They all turned and looked at me like, you chicken little, you, the sky did not fall.
		But we'll see.
		Another couple days we'll see if I was right or not.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That's right.
		I think a lot of people are concluding because it's going well at midnight, that means it's going to go well.
		Well, Y2K is not going to be over, and we can't really sigh relief until days, if not weeks, have passed.
unidentified		Yes, I've realized that.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, listen.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		If something really weird happens there, like a giant snowstorm, you call me for sure.
unidentified		Oh, all right.
		This is the realm of possibility.
		We're having a terrible drought here.
		It's two years in a row here in the desert.
		We haven't had enough rain to germinate annual seeds.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I know.
unidentified		In the desert, it usually blooms in the winter, just like the winter rains you have there.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I know.
		The world's weather, sir, without question, is in the middle of a change.
		I don't think anybody's arguing about that one anymore.
unidentified		Yeah.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right, well, listen, wonderful.
unidentified		I just want to tell you, I don't know many other people here in Israel that listen to you, but I was in the States in 97, driving around on a great tour I took with my daughter.
		I would listen to you at night while we were driving great distances.
		You changed our lives here.
		You had Philip Carsto on then.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That's right.
unidentified		And light bulbs went off all over the place in my head as I heard him explaining transistors and optical fibers and mylar and all this stuff.
		all of it made so much sense all of a sudden.
		The world hasn't been the same since I listened to that show in July.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		He was an amazing man.
		There's no question about it.
		An amazing man.
unidentified		I wanted to thank you.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It was a real honor to have.
		I had more hours of interview of Colonel Corso than anybody in the American media or the media anywhere for that matter.
		Thank you so much, sir.
unidentified		I just want to let you know the world keeps turning and the sun will come up soon where you are too.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Good night, and good luck to you in Israel.
		You know, this is a really good night, by the way, for the international line.
		So I guess I ought to plug that, huh?
		If you would like to reach us from any exotic spot in the world and give us your report, the way you do it is get hold of the AT ⁇ T operator and then have her call 800-893-0903.
		Now, I realize that Canadians can call that line, but if Canadians would sort of leave that alone and come in on one of the other lines tonight, we'll try and see what parts of the world we're able to hear from.
		Now, Israel is a pretty good start.
		So if you're out there in the middle of wherever, South Africa, Asia, up late listening to the program, get hold of the AT ⁇ D operator and give us a call, 800-893-0903.
		What's to the Rockies?
		You're on the air.
		Hi.
unidentified		Hi, Art.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Air Force veteran dittos to you.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, well, ditto's to you, sir.
unidentified		Prediction, sir.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right, number 44, it shall be.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		The hope will expire, unfortunately.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I fear you may be right, but you know, you've got to give it to him.
		I think, as I said last night, sheer willpower seems to have kept him alive to the year 2000.
		He wanted to see it.
		He wanted to see it.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		I think that was fantastic.
unidentified		Just willpower.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yep.
		I mean, you could see the man is as frail as a man can be and still be alive.
		And it's a testament to the willpower of man.
		Oh, yes, sir.
		I put your prediction down.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Thank you, sir.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Thank you.
		And take care.
		East of the Rockies, you're on air.
unidentified		Hi.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Hi.
unidentified		Hello.
		Hello.
		Can you hear me?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Turn your radio off.
unidentified		Okay.
unidentified		Hold it.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes, holding while you do that.
unidentified		Let me turn it off.
unidentified		Yes.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes.
unidentified		Okay.
unidentified		Who's this?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		What's your best guess?
		Are you art, Bell?
		Is that your final answer?
unidentified		Yes.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		No, I'm Harry.
unidentified		All right.
unidentified		All right, Harry.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Happy New Year.
		Happy New Year to you two.
		What's on your mind?
unidentified		Um, I wanted to talk to art.
		Well, this is art.
		It is art?
		Yes.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		A little harried, but art.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Turn off the radio.
unidentified		He said, turn off the radio.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, come on, turn off the radio.
unidentified		You know who did that?
		Yeah.
		Ken Sander.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Really?
unidentified		Yeah, do you know him?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Bad Ken Sander.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Bad.
unidentified		Bad Sander.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Anyway, Listen, we don't have a lot of time, so what's on your mind?
unidentified		He keeps telling it.
unidentified		Okay, um, well, Ken wanted me to ask you if you know him.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		No.
unidentified		You don't?
		No.
		He says he doesn't know you.
		Okay, that was it, huh?
		Well, pretty much.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right, well, I appreciate your call.
		Thank you.
		Do I know somebody?
		Ken Sander, not that I know of.
		I'm still kind of thinking that in New York where the ball came down, it was kind of a mericana.
		I mean, the ball came down with all these tetrahedral, swirling things, and when it came down, it looked like it came down right over the Discover card sign.
unidentified		And I thought, yeah, that's us.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		West of the Rockies, you're on there.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Hello.
unidentified		Hello, Art.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Hi.
unidentified		This is Ron from Nevada City.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Hi, Ron.
unidentified		And, excuse me, I've got to pull my headphone out.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes, you do.
unidentified		It's the same radio thing.
		No feedback, but definitely brain confusing him.
		Okay.
		Well, thank you very much.
		Happy New Year.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And you.
unidentified		And I want to really praise you for hanging in there and giving us the truth as you see it throughout these times, or at least giving the people the opportunity to present what they see.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It's just a big open forum.
unidentified		That's it, yeah.
unidentified		And that's the only way we're going to find out the truth is if we're given the information to figure it all out with.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Do you want to make a prediction?
richard c hoagland ▲ ● ▼		Yes, I do.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
unidentified		Number of questions.
		It has to do with part of your problem of being a media person and presenting the truth.
		People are going to take potshots at you, so to speak, with propaganda and such.
		I think the whole Heaven's Gate Obop thing was a perfect example of that.
		I know.
		Misinformation and really casting doubt upon you.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You must have read the Denver Post article.
unidentified		No, I didn't.
unidentified		Oh, long term listeners.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You ought to read it then.
		It's on the website now.
		It's a real winner.
		It's not a pot shot.
		It's like a shotgun blast.
unidentified		Okay.
		Let's longtime listeners know your stance on that.
		No, you had nothing to do with that.
		It was just something that was thrown at you.
		So what I predict is going to happen here in the year 2000 is that the real truth about Halebop is going to come out.
		And I actually think that probably you and the major might be the ones to be the media or the forum to present that truth.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right, sir.
		I appreciate the call.
		Thank you.
		We've got to go.
		We'll be right back.
unidentified		AMA 40, AXNT.
		Okay, ladies and gentlemen, here we are in Times Square, and the ball is dropping as we speak.

art bell ▲ ● ▼		Wow, they want it's a big party going on out there.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Really big party.
unidentified		Take a ride.
		Well, call our bell from west of the Rockies at 1-800-618-8255.
		East of the Rockies at 1-800-825-5033.
		First time collars may recharge at 1-775-727-1222.
		The wildcard line is open at 1775-727-1295.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And to recharge on the toll-free international line, call your AT ⁇ T operator and have them dial 800-893-0903.
unidentified		This is Coast to Coast AM with ourselves on the Premier Radio Network.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Would be up.
		Good morning, everybody.
		About an hour and 25 minutes until it's new millennium here on the West Coast.
		However, coming up in about 25 minutes, now less.
		The Mountain Time Zone is going to greet the new Millennium.
		Are you all ready?
		There in Denver and elsewhere?
		I guess parts of Utah, I guess I'd have to look at a map, but the Mountain Time Zone coming up in about now 24 minutes as the Millennium is racing across the U.S. I'm Mark Bell, and this is an extended version of Coast to Coast AM.
		The End The Sea Crane Company is open right now, and they're going to be open for the next hour and 24 minutes.
		They actually are there staffing, ready, taking orders on specials.
		And boy, do we have specials, the Zeit Atomic Clock, the Beijing Classic Radio, all of these at special prices or with special deals.
		The Sanjin ATS909 AM-FM shortwave radio, the CC Expedition Light, the CC Radio itself, the best AM radio in the world, and now the CC recorder.
		And we haven't advertised this in a while because we can't keep it in stock.
		Now, it's expensive, but man, listen to what you get.
		This incredible digital recorder, a standalone recorder, will record high-quality audio, full cassette speed type audio, only on a hard disk drive in a standalone unit for 115 hours, 115 hours of digital audio recording.
		Now it's got a lot more than that.
		It's got a setup where you can just push a few buttons and record your favorite talk show for three weeks solid.
		Three weeks.
		Now you think about that.
		It has split-second programming that allows you to cut out all the commercials.
		Can we really sell that?
		It has a real-time display that allows you to go directly to the segment you want to listen to.
		You can scroll through an hour in about five seconds.
		It'll record while listening to the show with a built-in speaker or it will mute as it records.
		It will also record cassette quality stereo music.
		It comes with a power cord, built-in microphone, radio patch cord, and one-year warranty.
		And you've never seen anything like it in your whole life.
		And yes, it is expensive, but all good things are.
		And this is a really good thing.
		$449.95.
		But hey, times are pretty good out there, and I suspect some of you can afford it.
		$449.95, the ultimate in recording ability and a wonderful addition to any high-end stereo system.
		Order tonight only and get a free CC checklight, a $34.95 value, call it.
		At 1, about any of the things I've talked about right now, because they're open at 1-800-522-8863.
		At 1-800-522-8863, they are there right now.
		To make this commercial more believable...
		All right, my wife Ramona has made a prediction, which I am recording as prediction number 46.
		I'll tell you, I'll choke if she gets a ding on this one.
		She is predicting for the Super Bowl coming up: the St. Louis Rams versus, get this, Kansas City.
		And she predicts Kansas City wins the Super Bowl.
		Any of you making bets based on her prediction should not address me when they lose their money.
		They should write email to Ramona Bell at my email address.
		Actually, don't any of you go out and bet based on this at Kansas City?
		You know, it's not that I don't like Kansas City because I do.
		No, that's not true.
		I really don't like Kansas City because I have lost more money betting on.
		You see, we can bet out here, and every time I bet on Kansas City to win, they lose.
		Every time I bet on them to lose, they've got this great big, great, big defensive and offensive fraud.
		Those guys are monstrous.
		It's like, anyway, they always foul me up.
		I actually had a dream that I was, I'll tell you about that dream later.
		I was on the Kansas City team at the, it was incredible, but she is predicting Kansas City to win Super Bowl.
		Number 46.
		We'll see.
		In the meantime, here's a voice you'll recognize, somebody to wish you a good happy new year.
		He is about, let's see, 17 and one-half minutes away from the new millennium, sweeping across the mountain upon which he perches.
		Richard C. Augustine.
		Hey, Richard.
richard c hoagland ▲ ● ▼		Good morning, Art, and good morning, America, and Happy New Year to everyone.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, indeed.
richard c hoagland ▲ ● ▼		Actually, we extend beyond the confines of the continent of the United States, you know, north to the pole and south and west and all that stuff.
		And it's really astonishing because if you sat and watched any of the coverage today on ABC or CNN, it really felt like a planet aren't together.
		It really was one.
		And everybody's saying, oh, we're making this a big deal of a trivial date change.
		It's arbitrary anyway.
		If we have time, I want to go into a couple of reasons why apparently it's not arbitrary.
		But the thing that came across today was everybody kind of, I mean, the last time I saw an event like this, it was in the control room with 42 screens sitting behind Cronkite, watching Neil and Buzz and those guys land on the moon because the planet was one doing one thing, thinking one thought.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You're right.
richard c hoagland ▲ ● ▼		And that other thought today was, we're all diverse, we're all different, but we're really all fundamentally the same.
		I mean, it was extraordinary.
		Absolutely extraordinary to watch this.
		And tomorrow morning, for those who missed it, apparently Sam Donaldson on ABC from 8 to 11 Eastern Time is going to have three hours of the highlights, the best of the best of the transition today.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Did you see the Eiffel Tower?
richard c hoagland ▲ ● ▼		Yes, with Barbara sitting in front of it.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It was absolutely astounding.
unidentified		Yes.
richard c hoagland ▲ ● ▼		Amazing.
richard c hoagland ▲ ● ▼		When you consider that that thing was supposed to come to the United States originally.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That's true, isn't it?
		Yes, it is.
		And then I really love the New York Ball going down and hitting the Discover card sign.
richard c hoagland ▲ ● ▼		Oh, don't get me started on the New York Ball.
		If you go to our website, Enterprise Mission, or you go through arts, to me tonight as a guest, you will see a close-up set of images of the Waterford Crystal New York Times Square 2000 Taylor Ball, all six feet of it.
		It was composed of nothing but redundant tetrahedron.
		And there were 504 of those little rotating suckers on the surface.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It was really awesome.
richard c hoagland ▲ ● ▼		I mean, I've got video.
		They've been doing kind of tests the last couple of days, and the Fox had some really good close-ups.
		And these things are spinning their little hearts out.
		And, of course, the whole thing is called the Seven-Rayed Star of Hope.
		Well, as we say in the web piece, which if you go to it, it's the official hyperdimensional New Year new post we have up there at the top.
		There's no doubt in anybody's mind, there can be no doubt that whoever planned these ceremonies is totally plugged into this whole idea of the hyperdimensional tetrahedral Sirius celebration, because the star was meant to represent the star Sirius.
		And if you look at the Tarot, anybody who's a Taro expert out there in the audience, go to a pack of Taro cards, and you will see that there is a Taro deck which has the star, as a seven-rate star of hope.
		And it's called Thoth, T-H-O-T-H, which was the Egyptian god of wisdom and writing and academics and knowledge and all that.
		Supposed to have built and constructed the Great Pyramid as part of the Egyptian mythos.
		So, even though we didn't have the crowning of the Great Pyramid with the capstone, you know, of Zahi's gold capstone.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You know, earlier tonight, Richard, I heard an explanation about why they wouldn't let him do that.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And they said, and I don't believe, that they were afraid they would damage the pyramid.
richard c hoagland ▲ ● ▼		Oh, come on.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, what a bunch of crap.
		Now, I was at the pyramid.
		They weren't going to damage the pyramid.
		And if they did, they would have fixed it.
richard c hoagland ▲ ● ▼		Well, but you can't really damage it because there is, as you know, this big iron spike fixed, yellow tripod up in the center, which goes to the presumed height.
		It kind of is a lightning rod, which sticks up to where the 480-some-feet pyramid would come to an apex to a point.
		And they had planned this thing.
		I think it was an aluminum superstructure, and it was covered with gold foil, and it was going to be lowered by a helicopter with some lasers for positioning, and guys up there would carefully set it down.
		So, I mean, it's not, no, no, that was not the reason.
		The real reason is somehow lost in the labyrinth of this secret stuff that's going on beneath the surface we're not supposed to know about.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, Gordon Michael Scallion spent a good part of three hours telling us about what's below, and there is a lot below, and it's about to be discovered and or already has been.
richard c hoagland ▲ ● ▼		Well, you know what's so extraordinary, and of course, I did listen in amongst you know, doing a bunch of other stuff here tonight to Gordon.
richard c hoagland ▲ ● ▼		The station we normally get that comes from Tennessee, TRN through satellite, did not carry you in the first three hours.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Right, well.
richard c hoagland ▲ ● ▼		So I had to pick you up with, you know, the old-fashioned AM radio on KOB here in Albuquerque.
unidentified		It works.
richard c hoagland ▲ ● ▼		There's a big mountain between me and KOB, and I have been replacing all our lamps with fluorescent, you know, just to save energy.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So you have noise.
richard c hoagland ▲ ● ▼		Well, unless I position the radio just right and stand on one foot and kind of point my head towards the south.
		Anyway, I was able to hear, and it was extraordinary what Stallion was saying, which comes, as you know, from his visions and his sources, and what we have figured out from the science and the due diligence and the elbow grease.
		And there's an extraordinary overlay art.
		I was absolutely fascinated.
		And in the coming weeks and months, as we do these things, as we get ready and post things on the web, people will be able to see a remarkable correlation between some of the things Estalia was saying tonight and some of the real history that we are unearthing as part of the Enterprise Science Do-It-By the Numbers research.
unidentified		All right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Listen, Richard, wonderful having you here.
		The new millennium is about to crash upon your head there.
		Would you like to make a prediction for the year 2000?
richard c hoagland ▲ ● ▼		A prediction.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, sure.
richard c hoagland ▲ ● ▼		Well, given the fact that we can now substantiate that this year is not arbitrary.
		In other words, everyone thinks, and getting into calendar stuff tonight would be much too complicated, but go to the web and take a look at that tetrahedral ball in Times Square.
		We can now document that the actual positioning in time of the 2000-2001 transition was carefully calculated and was part of Pope Gregory's 1582 Reformation of the calendar.
		There is a Russian website, which is linked now to our website.
		There's a couple of Russian investigators named A.T. Flomenko.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		This is a Hoagland prediction, all right.
richard c hoagland ▲ ● ▼		And G. V. Nozyovsky.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Nostyovsky.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, by the way, continue, Richard.
richard c hoagland ▲ ● ▼		Well, they believe that there's about 400 years of made-up history that they have discovered that's been kind of cloned in terms of modern history books looking back at the history of Europe, particularly the history of England.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Figures.
richard c hoagland ▲ ● ▼		And the question would be, why would you make up 400 years?
richard c hoagland ▲ ● ▼		And they actually believe it was pulled from the Byzantine Empire.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, I know the answer to that.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And they tried to cover up what happened during that 400 years.
richard c hoagland ▲ ● ▼		Well, among other things, but also to cover up the fact that the calendar was off by something like 400 years.
		Now, how can a calendar be off?
		If timekeeping is arbitrary, there's no way it could be off.
		In other words, at some point you start the clock and you just keep rolling, right?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Right.
richard c hoagland ▲ ● ▼		Well, but suppose there is a bigger clock.
		Suppose there is an absolute clock.
		Suppose there's a fundamental clock like the atomic clock at Boulder, to use an analogy.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		The new one.
richard c hoagland ▲ ● ▼		The new one.
		And that you have a watch, and you discover somewhere, some week, some day, that your watch is off, let's say, by four hours compared to the absolute clock.
		And you reset your watch to be synchronized, but then you have to make up a story for what happened in those four hours.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, I see.
richard c hoagland ▲ ● ▼		So that's what the Russians think has gone on.
		And what's interesting is that we came to the same conclusion from a totally different route.
		Last year, we've been quietly looking at this in terms of our good old computer program, Redshift.
		And we discovered that the clock, the absolute clock, had to do with the positioning of the star Sirius, critical in the Egyptian mythology, on the meridian at Eza, at midnight, as the century changed.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And so, that I don't break into tears, your prediction is?
richard c hoagland ▲ ● ▼		The next year, between 2000 and 2001, when the real millennium transitions, all kinds of absolutely extraordinary revelations are going to come falling out of the closet.
richard c hoagland ▲ ● ▼		And they began tonight with this overtly hyperdimensional tetrahedral sphere lowered representing the star Sirius in Times Square to kick it off.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right, Richard.
		True, even down to your prediction.
		You're incredible.
		Thank you, Richard, and we'll do a show soon, of course.
richard c hoagland ▲ ● ▼		Happy New Year, everybody.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Take care, my friend.
		And he is now about, as you are in the mountain time zones, nigh on to about seven and one-half minutes away from the millennium as it continues to flash across our continent.
		Not just America, but Canada and the Americas generally.
		It is a very exciting time.
		Boy, I'll tell you, just nothing but good news so far.
		Lots of partying.
		No lights going out.
		No crashing, no terrorist actions that I can see.
		Absolutely nothing.
		I mean, a really good thing is happening.
		And let us all cross our fingers and see that it continues to happen.
		On the international line, you're on the air.
		Hi.
		Hi, Art.
		Yes.
		My name's David.
unidentified		I'm in Osaka right now.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Osaka, Japan.
unidentified		Yes.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		How you doing, David?
unidentified		I'm doing fine.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So far, so good.
		Let's see now.
		It's been the new millennium in Osaka for quite a while.
		Quite a while.
unidentified		It's 4 p.m.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		4 in the afternoon now.
		Yes.
		Are you getting any local reports there in Osaka?
unidentified		No, I have not heard anything.
unidentified		I was just talking to a gentleman that was on his way to Los Angeles, and he's heard of some ATMs going down, but I'm not sure if he meant in the United States or over here.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, I can tell you that there in Japan, there were a couple of minor incidents at nuclear plants.
		Oh, there were.
		Yes, there were.
unidentified		Can you be a little more explicit on that?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, if I could find it, nothing serious, nothing that would cause them to shut down, but I think a couple of sensors or something or another due to Y2K quit working.
		And wait a minute here.
		Let me see if I can find it.
		I'm sure you'd be.
		Yeah, here it is.
		Let's see.
		It says, the anticipated first bite from the Y2K bug was barely felt Saturday as computers around the world suddenly made the transition from 1999 to 2000.
		Lights stayed on in Asia and Eastern Russia's nuclear plants ran without a hitch.
		In Japan, the failure of a computer linked to a nuclear plant monitoring device wasn't considered serious enough to shut the plant down, but they say it's still too early to assess the impact.
		So there is a little something there in Japan.
unidentified		Interesting.
unidentified		Well, I'm about to get on a 747 headed for Detroit.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Going to Detroit, huh?
unidentified		Yes, we came over here.
unidentified		I'm with the Vand Kansas, and we played on a military base on New Year's Eve.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You're with the Vand Kansas?
unidentified		I am not in the band.
unidentified		I'm the lighting director and the keyboard technician.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, have you enjoyed your trip to Japan?
unidentified		I certainly have.
unidentified		I wish I could have spent more time in Japan, but we came over Friday, so I've just spent a lot of time on aircraft and saw some airports.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, have you noticed the prices there?
		The prices?
		Yes, the prices of when I buy things.
unidentified		I inquired about gasoline, about $1.20 a gallon.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		About $1.20 a gallon?
unidentified		Yes.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, that's not bad at all.
unidentified		Not bad at all.
		They also do something interesting over here as far as your vehicles.
		You pay taxes on your vehicles according to the displacement of the engine.
		In other words, the more it pollutes, the more you pay.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		The bigger the engine, the more you pay?
unidentified		That's right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, I don't know how I feel about that.
unidentified		Well, I wouldn't enjoy that either.
unidentified		I have an 81 Camaro, Z28.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You do?
		My wife has a Camaro.
		I've got a Firebird TransAm Firebird.
		Oh, what year?
		98.
unidentified		98, yeah.
unidentified		Mine's an 81.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		The midnight blue or black, almost blue-black color, it really is.
		Oh, they are.
		But they displays a lot.
unidentified		Well, I've got to get on this airplane.
		It leaves in 15 minutes.
		I've been a longtime listener of your show, and I just read your book, your book you wrote with Whitley Striever.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, you must have bought that before you left.
unidentified		I bought that in Florida.
		I was in West Palm Beach visiting family for Christmas.
		And it's an excellent book, very interesting reading.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Thank you very much.
		It is.
		And take care.
		From Japan.
		All right.
		Well, listen here, everybody, in the mountain time zone.
		You've got about, I don't know, about three minutes, and the new millennium is going to come roaring across the Rockies.
		That's my wife, and I think she's getting in the picture.
		Wait a minute.
		Let me ensure that she gets into the picture.
		There you are.
unidentified		All right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		We just took one.
		That's Ramona.
		Kansas City, are you kidding?
		Kansas State.
		I mean, I could...
		Kansas City, maybe.
		But Kansas City prevailing?
		Good luck, everybody out there following that one.
		All right, folks, we'll be right back.
		From the high desert to the world, this is Coast to Coast AM.

		The most critical time for military systems was seven hours ago, zero hours Greenwich meantime.

		If we want the story of the 21st century to be the triumph of peace and harmony, we must embrace our common humanity and our shared destiny.
		There on the mall, CBS News White House correspondent Peter Mayer took it all in.
		This massive fireworks display is the finale to Washington's national New Year's party.
		The red, white, and blue rockets flare is turning night into day in the first hour of the year 2000.
		It's what President Clinton calls the dawning of the new millennium.
		Many people in this party crowd say it's a rare moment to celebrate, to ponder the past, and consider the future of a new century.

		David?
		It may be the eve of a new millennium here, but it has the feel of a Hollywood premiere replete with searchlights in the sky.
		A black tie crowd is gathered in the historic Paramount studios to await a huge light and laser show at what may be this city's best-known landmark, the Hollywood sign.
		There are city-sponsored celebrations at five other sites where thousands will watch the show on giant television screens.
		Rain has kept down the crowd somewhat, but not the enthusiasm.

unidentified		What goes up must come down.
		That's been the real fear here in several neighborhoods as people fired off hundreds of rounds of bullets into the air to welcome in the new year.
		So far, no reports of injuries that could come later.
		In the Capitol San Juan, the celebration of thousands of revelers not at all dampened as the rain began to pour just at midnight.
		And what many are surprised at, there have been no Y2K rollover problems.

unidentified		Now, what's this?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Pentagon reporting a temporary communications problem with what?
		With who?
		Now they're not smiling as much on CNN.
unidentified		What's going on?
unidentified		Hmm.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		The Pentagon is reporting some sort of communication problem.
		And I don't know what that means, but they're looking fairly serious about it there.
		Whatever it is.
		Well, here we are anyway, whatever it is that is happening.
		We'll get word to you shortly.
		If you're outside the country and you would like to report how it's going out there, we have a special number for you, and we are asking tonight Canadians to come in on the east or the west of the Rockies line, which you can use, leaving the international line open for great distance.

art bell ▲ ● ▼		Hey, Art.
unidentified		This is Tyler in Oregon.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		How you doing?
unidentified		I'm doing pretty good, man.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		How about you?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Just fine.
unidentified		All right.
unidentified		I'd like to make the predictions that I think World War III is going to break out.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		World War III?
		Yeah.
		During this next year.
unidentified		Yes, sir.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		During this year, I guess I had it.
		Well, it's not this year here yet.
		Why do you think that's going to happen?
unidentified		Well, just how everything is going right now, man.
		Just look at it.
		China giving us that Panama Canal and all this, man.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, the Panama Canal, wrenching as it was to give it up, it went smoothly.
		China is going to have some sort of contract to run it.
		I don't much like that.
		I'm a little concerned about Mr. Yeltsin, you know, chucking it in right at the millennium.
		So, all right, I'll put you down.
		That's clear.
		World War III.
		On the international line, you're on the air.
		Hello.
unidentified		Hello, Art.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Hi.
unidentified		How are you doing tonight?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Pretty good.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Where are you?
unidentified		I don't know.
		I heard a sort of happy announcement of I'm calling from Saskatchewan.
		I hope that's far enough.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, I was kind of trying to hold the international line open for beyond, but I'll take your call.
unidentified		Oh, well, thank you.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You're welcome.
unidentified		Am I calling from Saskatoon?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Saskatoon.
unidentified		Yes.
unidentified		We had no problems up here, and everything seems to be going off without anything.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Can you say Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, three times fast?
unidentified		Yeah, I can.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Let me hear it.
unidentified		Saskatoon, Saskatchewan.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right, fine.
unidentified		Did I pass one?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I couldn't do it.
		Yeah, you passed that one, but now I've got one you can't do, I bet.
		It's even easier.
		And you're going to fall all over yourself.
		You ready?
unidentified		Okay.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I want it three times fast.
unidentified		All righty.
unidentified		Unique New York.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, anyway, you got your own country, right?
unidentified		Excellent.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right, number 49, if you want to make a prediction.
unidentified		I sure do.
		Okay.
		I didn't hear the earlier part of this show because our person up here doesn't carry it.
		But I'm going to say there's going to be a nuclear exchange between Pakistan and India this year.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, that's possible.
unidentified		Well, I would say that's probably probable.
		In fact, you know, there's so much tension there right now with this last little hijacking incident.
		I would say it's the powder cake waiting to happen.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I got you.
		I don't like it, but I got you.
		All right, you're down.
unidentified		What number was I again?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Number 49.
unidentified		Excellent.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
unidentified		Thank you very much, sir.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Thank you for the call.
		And I would just ask that the Canadians free up the international line so that the Israels and the Japans and the Malaysias and the Australias and so forth can get through.
		Because there are a lot of you, I know, to the north in Canada.
		You can use the other lines, incidentally.
		International Line, you're on the air.
		Hello.
unidentified		All right.
		Sorry to call you.
		I'm calling you from Canada, but if you're keeping an eye on CNN, they just came through with a report out of the Pentagon that they're having some Y2K problems at the Pentagon with their military intelligence system.
		That just came on the air about five minutes ago.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Their military intelligence system?
unidentified		Correct.
unidentified		And Bernard Shaw, I think that's his name.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes, Bernie Shaw.
unidentified		Who's on the CNN?
		Asked the reporter from the Pentagon, don't you think it's rather odd for this sort of thing to appear?
		And they couldn't give any response, but I just wanted to phone you to let you know that that just happened right now.
		They didn't specify what was going on, but Bernard did that.
		It seemed that this is happening tonight.
		And given last night with our President Yeltsin resigning coincidentally, and now is this report?
		Happy evening.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, thank you.
		Same to you.
		Of all the people to be having a problem, you know, we expected private sector problems, but good Lord, the Pentagon was the one that you would expect they would have down cold, and it's the first source of a big report of a problem.
		Well, it may be an interesting evening yet.
		Why would they report it?
		Why would the Pentagon report that, do you think?
		That's the kind of thing you would think they would not report.
		I sure hope it's not a problem in communication with the new setup they've got going to Russia.
		They're showing scenes now on CNN of Boise Idaho, kaboom, kaboom, as the mountain states, the mountain time zone states, celebrate like crazy.
		East of the Rockies, you're on air.
		Hello.
unidentified		Hello.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Hi.
		Is this our pelvis?
		It is.
unidentified		Good morning.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		I've been a long time listener.
		I've only called once or twice.
		How are you today?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Just fine.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Where are you?
unidentified		I'm from Rochester, New York.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Rochester, all right?
unidentified		Yep.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		And I just called first to wish you a Happy New Year.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		I've been listening for a long time.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Thank you.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		And I appreciate the show.
unidentified		Okay.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		And I have a prediction for you.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It will be rounded number 50.
unidentified		Okay.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		What is it?
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		The prediction is that during the upcoming year, wars are going to break out in certain Middle East countries.
		And the United States, like they usually do, is going to try to come in to make peace.
		But that's just going to cause more problems.
unidentified		And there's going to be turmoil around the world.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		But it probably will all be settled.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		At least I hope so.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So wars in the Middle East, huh?
unidentified		Yeah.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Okay.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I appreciate your call, sir, and I hope you're wrong.
unidentified		I hope so, too.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That wouldn't be something we would want on the Middle East.
		We heard from Israel a little bit earlier.
		International line, you're on the air.
unidentified		Hello.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Hello there.
unidentified		Hello?
unidentified		Hello?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes, hello there.
unidentified		Hello, is this Art?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes, this is Art.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Where are you calling from?
unidentified		I am calling from Melbourne, Australia.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Melbourne, Australia.
		Well, well, well, well.
		The new millennium has been in place down in Melbourne for quite a while now.
unidentified		It is quarter past six in the evening.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Quarter past six in the evening.
		All right, well, listen, what kind of reports are you getting locally in Australia?
		How are things going down there?
		Is everything smooth?
unidentified		Everything is Y2OK.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Y2OK.
		Everything here was Y2OK until a few minutes ago and we got kind of a worrisome report about the Pentagon.
		Maybe it's nothing.
unidentified		I just saw that on CNN.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, you did.
unidentified		Yes.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Doesn't it strike you strange?
		There goes the ball I see on CNN hitting the discover card again.
		Doesn't it strike you as strange that the Pentagon would be the one reporting problems?
unidentified		It seems a little strange, but I guess I think they just said it was some type of communication problems.
		I think that they said temporary communication problems.
		Yeah, but what kind of problem, Michael?
		Barris, Barris, are you there?
		Barris, Boris, what is it?
		Who knows anything?
		It could be anything.
		It could be anything.
		But I just wanted to tell you, I've been a big fan.
		I've been listening via the internet for a couple of months now, and keep up the good work.
		I just love this show.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right, my friend.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Thank you.
unidentified		Thank you very much.
unidentified		Happy New Year.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Good day, mate.
		That's Melbourne, Australia, where it's what's six at night and well into the new year.
		Can't hear you, Boris.
		Speak up.
unidentified		What did you say is in the air?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		First time calling mine.
		you're on the air.
		Hello.
unidentified		Yeah, hi.
unidentified		This is Mitch from Columbus, Ohio.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Hi, Mitch.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		How are you doing?
unidentified		Good.
unidentified		I just wanted to come and let you know that at 12:02 Eastern Time, we lost power here in the west side of Columbus.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		What?
unidentified		And yeah, and it was reported on the news that it was not Y2K reliant or Y2K related.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		The whole west side of Columbus, Ohio?
unidentified		Yes.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And it wasn't Y2K related?
unidentified		No, they said it was just an equipment problem.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Do you personally believe that?
unidentified		No.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		No?
unidentified		No.
unidentified		But the power has come back on, so they fixed whatever was going on.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Whatever it was, they either worked around it or whatever.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I wonder how many other areas of the country had sort of failures like that.
unidentified		I don't know, but they got it back on.
		It was on for about an hour.
		Then it went off for a couple minutes, and then they got it back on again.
		Uh-huh.
		But it's not due to Y2K according to the power company.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So they say, huh?
unidentified		Yeah.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, do you want to make a prediction for the year?
unidentified		Well, I predict that our power will go off again a few more times.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		We'll just put down power problems.
unidentified		Okay.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
unidentified		Thank you.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Thank you very much for the call.
		Take care, Columbus, huh?
		But it's not Y2K related.
		Yeah, it occurred at 1202, but it's not Y2K related.
		Now, here is something that I do wonder.
		How much are we really hearing about?
		How much are we really hearing about?
		Do I imagine that our media might hold back from us?
		No, not our media.
		They wouldn't do that, would they?
unidentified		I'm sure they would.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You bet they would.
		I don't know that they're doing that.
		I mean, it's been pretty good up until now.
		But anybody out there who thinks that the Y2K problematic time is over because we've raced around the world without serious problems so far, you're wrong.
		When the world goes back to work again, we're going to get another little bit of a jolt and we're going to find out a whole lot more.
		We'll see.
		There's somebody on CNN with a Hollywood sign.
		At least it's still lit up for now.
		West of the Rockies, you're on the air.
unidentified		Hello.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Is this our?
		Yes, it is.
		Extinguish your radio, please.
unidentified		Okay, just saying.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Holding on for that.
		Wherever it is, you are.
		You should have that radio close so you can do that right away.
		Okay, hey.
		All right.
		Where are you?
unidentified		This is Brother Billy from Seaside, Oregon.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Our power just blinked here.
unidentified		Yes.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Hi, Brother Billy.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		How you doing?
unidentified		Good.
		I was calling to let you know that everything seems to be okay so far.
		Of course, we haven't hit midnight yet.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That's right.
unidentified		We haven't.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Did you hear the guy from Columbus?
unidentified		Yes, I did.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		He said the whole part of Columbus lost power at 12.02, and they immediately said it's not Y2K related.
unidentified		Oh, it's just a coincidence.
		I do have a prediction I want to give you, but first I want to say I would really like to have you bring on a couple of guests.
		Sir Lawrence Gardner, familiar?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Sir Lawrence Gardner?
unidentified		Yes.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I should know that name, but I don't.
unidentified		He is the genealogist, I guess you would say, for the 33 royal families.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, really?
unidentified		Yes.
		Okay.
		And I would suggest him and David Hudson agree with him.
		Okay, all right.
		Okay.
		Anyway, the prediction would be that everything being somewhat okay for Y2K, not the big problems that everyone assumed, the economy is going to pretty much soar initially.
		We're going to see the stock market go up, might even reach $15,000.
		And then, of course, it has to correct itself.
		What goes up must go down.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So a market rise and then a correction.
unidentified		Yeah.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		How much of a correction?
unidentified		I don't think it'll be as bad as it was in the Depression, but I think you'll see a considerable drop.
		Okay, gotcha.
		Possibly $15,000 is what it'll go up to.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, that would really be something, wouldn't it?
		$15,000.
		All right.
		Thank you very much for the call, and we'll be right back.
unidentified		The End We get a lot of letters from customers about Preems and PMS.
unidentified		Here's one from Debbie of California.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, now that is dated copy.
		Just a few more days until Y2K.
		Well, actually, out here, just a few more minutes.
		Actually, and across most of the nation already has occurred.
		That's dated copy.
		But the concept remains sound.
		Of course, I am just over the hill from Las Vegas, Nevada, which is probably going to be the next focus as they come out here to the West Coast.
		They're going to look at Las Vegas.
		And right now on the strip, man, I'll bet you it is ripping.
		And they're going to be showing photographs of that.
		There's going to be a lot of people on the strip.
		That's going to be a wild time.
		Just over the hill from me.
		All right, we are taking predictions and doing whatever else.
		If you're somewhere far away, get hold of the AT ⁇ T operator and have her call 800-893-0903.
		That's 800-893-0903.
		And we'll take your comments on what's going on.
		Western Rockies, you're on the air.
		Hi.
unidentified		Hi, this is Anthony and Spokane.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes, sir.
unidentified		Yeah, I've been listening to Christian Radio tonight.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And?
unidentified		They're either angry or kind of bummed.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Really?
unidentified		Yeah.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Why?
unidentified		I think they wanted their Y2K.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		They wanted trouble.
unidentified		Yeah, yeah.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I find that hard to believe.
		I mean, I guess there are some religious groups that want trouble and will be saddened if this is not.
		You know, I guess some thought, well, you know, God's coming back, He's going to do it now.
unidentified		Well, yeah, you know, Y2K means, you know, imminent rapture to a lot of Christians.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I always thought that the Bible said that nobody's going to know the time.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You know, and isn't that what Christians really believe, that nobody's going to know when?
unidentified		Yeah, none of these people were saying that they knew the exact time, but they were looking for signs.
unidentified		You know, it was like just encouragement of imminent deliverance.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		In other words, this could have been one of those moments, but it wasn't, huh?
unidentified		Yeah, and they actually were hinting that it might be necessary to, well, to facilitate it.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, well, that's really sick.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That's the kind of stuff the FBI is looking at, and I don't believe that's mainstream Christianity at all.
unidentified		These are just callers.
unidentified		Yeah, they're all.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, well, see, these are whack jobs.
		Absolute whack jobs.
		Yeah, and we've done enough that might go wrong by itself without some idiot bringing it on.
unidentified		Yeah, they should have screened those calls now.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		First of all, we appreciate the call, sir.
unidentified		How I fell in love with you.
		Oh, it's true.
		Oh, I love you.
		Oh, I love you.
		You showed me how to say exactly what you say in that very special way.
		Oh, it's true.
		You fell for me too And And when I tried it, I could see you fall from the high desert.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		This is Coast to Coast AM.
		Happy New Year in about 31 minutes.

evelyn paglini ▲ ● ▼		Yes, it's the year of the dragon.
		And you know what, Arpy?
		Because it's got a double zero.
		I'm looking at it as snake eyes.
		I think we better strap ourselves in and get ready for a very bumpy ride.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I'm going to put that down actually as a prediction.
evelyn paglini ▲ ● ▼		Well, thank you.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Year of the dragon.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And you think it's going to be a bumpy ride, aren't you?
evelyn paglini ▲ ● ▼		Very much so.
		I feel that this winter and spring, the weather severity is going to cost us plenty.
		And I also feel that there is going to be a wonderful find that will be uncovered in the Antarctic of an ancient civilization that will tell us a little bit more about our roots.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You probably mean as the Antarctic continues to melt.
evelyn paglini ▲ ● ▼		That's right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All of a sudden, one day they'll look out across the ice and they'll be at the top of a building, a skyscraper.
evelyn paglini ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, absolutely.
		I wish, you know, normally the year of the dragon can be very fortunate.
		But I'm feeling more chaotic.
		I'm feeling people are going to come out and assert themselves, but in a negative, not in a positive way.
		And so I'm very worried about this year.
		Nothing is going to be in concrete.
		It will ship in an instant.
		One day will be phenomenal and we'll be very optimistic.
		And then you're going to get hit with a thunderbolt.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Come on.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Ran out of nowhere.
evelyn paglini ▲ ● ▼		Out of nowhere.
evelyn paglini ▲ ● ▼		So that's why I'm saying strap yourself in.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, I have some of the same feeling, but, you know, as I watched TV earlier tonight, everything was going so smoothly around the world.
evelyn paglini ▲ ● ▼		Oh, yes.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And to some degree still is.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It felt hopeful.
evelyn paglini ▲ ● ▼		Oh, I want to be optimistic.
evelyn paglini ▲ ● ▼		I think it's wonderful to see the entire world all at once shake hands to the year 2000.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, I guess that's going to happen, but maybe it's like where fighters shake hands, you know, just before.
evelyn paglini ▲ ● ▼		Just before you come out sparring, yeah.
		All right, that's what I'm really worried about.
		I'm going to say again, the year of the dragon, fire is going to breed, and the double zero snake eyes.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, I want to thank you for all you have done for me and my family, Ellen.
		Thank you.
		And I want you to have a wonderful, magical new year.
evelyn paglini ▲ ● ▼		I will, and I wish that to you and your entire audience.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay, thank you.
evelyn paglini ▲ ● ▼		You're welcome.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Good night.
		That's Evelyn Paglini, and she is a real McCoy, a witch.
		And so we're sort of spotting the night with people, as you can tell, that we know.
		I've got something I want you to hear.
		Now, this is the Dana Ray Band.
		Do you remember the Dana Ray Band?
		They sang a Y2K song.
		Remember that?
		Remember the Y2K Dana Ray Band song?
		Well, the Dana Ray Band has now done, in view of, you know, the way things are going right now, at least most of them, the Dana Ray Band has prepared a special piece for you tonight with a bit of a different slant on things.
		And here it is.
unidentified		Why was I so worried about YQK?
		Now there's a thousand cans of tuna fish standing in my way.
		I'm tripping to the bathroom.
		It's like walking through a maze.
		Wish I'd never worried about New Year's Day.
		It seemed like such a good idea in my mind to stock up on some food and water while you still have time.
		You remember that old story, the grasshopper and the ant.
		They say the future is hard to see.
		Well, I got news you can't.
		What the samhill was I thinking?
		Was I just paranoid?
		Now I'm hunkered in this bunker, trying to avoid.
		The awful truth, it's over, and everything's the same.
		The jerk that wrote that other song, he's the one I blame.
		Why was I worried about why she's gay?
		I was betting that the IRS was just gonna go away.
		I maxed out on my Visa cards, but I'd never have to pay.
		should have had a backup plan for a non-eventful day.
		You should know for me found Y2K, but once it seemed like a time exit, it didn't go away.
		He prepared for the worst.
		It's really sad to say.
		The millennium is here and everything's okay.
		The world didn't stop on New Year's Day.
		Sure glad I bought that generator and a hundred cans of gas.
		Paid for it with a rubber check.
		Now I feel like such an asteroid's my only prayer, Lord.
		Please send one down.
		Otherwise, they'll hang my picture up all over town.
		The media stirred the people up.
		I hope they're happy now.
		I quit my job a week ago.
		Even called my boss a cow.
		My bridges burned, my juices cooked.
		I'm screwed in every way.
		It's true my world ended on New Year's Day.
		Why was I so worried about my choice?
		There was a flaw in my theory.
		My logic went astray.
		My one chance for adventure.
		There's no dragons left to slay.
		I wasn't the only Airborne fool on New Year's Day.
		I don't know.
		Why was I so worried about YQK?
		The world never really changes, and now there's hell to pay.
		The Rebo Man will take my Army's surplus tank away.
		I'm changing my identity.
		I've got no aces left to play.
		It's clear I've had to disappear on New Year's Day.
		I know.
		I don't even know.
		See, I was deducted by the Greys.
		Hey, buddy, want to buy a barely used bazooka?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That is the Dana Ray band, and that is their After the Fact song.
		Of course, they sang a very different tune, so to speak, during this last year, which we played any number of times.
		And that is their New Year's Day retraction.
		West of the Rockies, you're on the air.
unidentified		Hello.
unidentified		Hi, how are you doing, Art?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay, sir.
unidentified		This is Robert in Boulder, Colorado.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Hi, Robert.
unidentified		And it's a pretty uneventful night down here.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So far, so good, pretty much.
unidentified		Yeah, I was just watching the guy on the news try the ATM machines.
		And I think the big news around here is going to be how few people actually went out on New Year's Eve.
		Whether or not they're just anticipating trouble or they didn't feel like going out or whatever.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, actually, in spas all across, actually from New York to Las Vegas to the spots where large crowds were going to show, a lot of people showed up, but a lot of people stayed home.
		And I think you're right about that.
		A lot of people said, you know, I think I'd rather bring this in at home.
unidentified		Yeah.
unidentified		Hey, you know, Art, I never regretted buying some food because one time I decided to try some, the stuff I got was pretty good.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I know.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I know.
unidentified		And I just kept on eating it until it was gone.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, you know, that's exactly, well, you might have gone a little earlier, but that's what I told people.
		You're never going to go wrong stocking up on food because you can always eat your investment.
		I mean, big deal.
unidentified		Especially if you buy the good stuff.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That's right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, no, that's exactly right.
unidentified		Oh, yeah, and I got a prediction, I guess.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Number 54 it shall be.
unidentified		And it's sad, but I think we might see one sometime in January.
		We'll probably see another school shooting.
		Just the way the trends have been going.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, that's unfortunate, but I bet we're going to see a year of it, too.
unidentified		Yeah, and I think people sort of stopped talking about it while the Y2K was coming up here, but we'll be hearing about it again shortly, I'd imagine.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, let's hope that the millennium brings some sort of change to us all that stops some of the madness, because it has madness.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It's really madness.
unidentified		Well, have a happy new year, Dart.
unidentified		Sir America, too.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You take care, and everybody out there.
		On our international line, you're on the air.

unidentified		Yep.
unidentified		And I'm watching you live on the internet.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And you're watching me live on the internet.
		You know what, though?
		There is something going on.
		The internet is very, very slow right now.
		The internet is moving at a snail's pace.
unidentified		Yeah, I've noticed that.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		But I think, you know, it's just because of the amount of traffic.
unidentified		Yeah.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I would suppose.
		All right.
		Well, listen, thank you, and happy new year to you.
unidentified		Happy New Year.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Take care.
		I'm trying to hold that line open.
		For anywhere in Europe, Asia, Africa, wouldn't it be fun to hear from Africa?
		I wonder if they could get through.
		Somebody in Africa, give it a try.
		The number is, you call the AT ⁇ T, you get the AT ⁇ T operator.
		It's a free call, no matter where you are in the world.

		Good luck to us all.
		About nine and one-half minutes.
		It's really racing toward me right now.
		Well, you know, I can say no matter whatever else happens, I made it to the year 2000.
		I bet there's a lot of people out there saying that.
		You've got to think about it.
		You've got to sit back and relax a little bit and think about it that there are not many human beings who get to experience the thousand-year change.
		I mean, there just aren't.
		You are a very privileged group.
		We are all a very privileged group to greet the year 2000, to see it come and go.
		It's an eventful thing for humanity, for all of us.
		West of the Rockies, you're on there.
		Hi.
unidentified		Hi.
		Hello.
		Oh, my Colin.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, now, with regard to who you're calling, you would know more about that than I would.
unidentified		Oh, well, no, I just was dialing a number.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You're just dialing a number randomly?
unidentified		Well, no, I was trying to reach Art Bell.
unidentified		Uh-huh.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, who do you think you've reached?
unidentified		Oh, I have no idea.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Guess for me.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Take a big guess.
unidentified		I don't know.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Really don't know, huh?
		Well, you wanted what kind of pizza?
		What kind of pizza?
unidentified		Oh, I don't want any pizza.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		No, thanks.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You did order one, anchovies, right?
unidentified		No, no anchovies.
		I can't stand anchovies.

unidentified		Hello, yeah, this is Dave from London, Ontario calling.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Dave, we're trying to hold this line for you.
unidentified		Yeah, I just wanted to tell you about an Y22K clutch.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, really?
		Woodstock, Ontario.
		Woodstock, Ontario.
		I'm in London, Ontario.
unidentified		My cousin just called me a while ago, said the power was all out in Woodstock.
		It's about 50,000, 60,000 population centers.
		Really?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
unidentified		So that's quite interesting.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		When did it go out, did he say?
unidentified		Well, I just talked to him, and he said it was out for about, it's been out for about two and a half hours.
		It's 2.52 time in London, Ontario, Canada here.
		Oh, my.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So, in other words, oh.
		Have the local authorities said it is not.
		I haven't heard.
unidentified		I'm just checking on the local news here to see if I can see anything.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		We'll see if they say it is not Y2K related.
		Yeah.
		That seems to be the general comment tonight on most of the outages so far.
		Okay.
		All right.
		Thank you very much for the call.
		that would be a...
		Woodstock, Ontario, huh?
unidentified		You see...
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That's interesting.
		Well, it may be that the grid is doing a little adjusting and so forth.
		Wildguard Line, you're on the air.
unidentified		Hello.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Hello, how are you doing?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I'm doing okay.
unidentified		Hey, I got a prediction for you.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You do, huh?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Where are you?
unidentified		I'm going across Illinois.
unidentified		I'm a truck driver.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		My name's Todd.
unidentified		Okay.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And what do you predict for the year 2000?
unidentified		Okay, I predict all the truck drivers are finally going to get together and go on strike.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Do you really think so?
unidentified		I think so.
unidentified		I think it's about time they start standing up for themselves again.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, are you trying to organize that by saying this, or are you actually just predicting it?
unidentified		I don't know.
unidentified		Probably kind of both.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		What is it that the truck drivers want?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I don't know, quite a bit.
unidentified		I don't know.
		It kind of seems like they're just kind of, everybody's starting to go against us a little bit.
		No, no.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		We love truck drivers.
		I live out here in the middle of the desert.
		If it wasn't for truck drivers, I wouldn't have a damn thing out here, even toilets.
		We need you, yes.
unidentified		Well, I mean, there's, you know, just like there's a few bad truck drivers.
unidentified		There's, you know, you only hear the words of the ones that are.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		The only bad truck drivers are the truck drivers that, when there's only two lanes, there's two trucks, and they go side by side.
		Those are bad truck drivers with about a million cars behind them.
		And I know that they're talking on the CB going.
		You've never done that, have you?
		I can't really tell you if I have or not.
		Yeah, right.
		All right.
		Well, good luck with your strike.
		Thank you very much for the call.
unidentified		Sure.
unidentified		Yeah.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Take care.
		You ever run into that on the road?
		Used to the Rockies?
		You're on the air.
unidentified		Hello.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes, turn your radio off.
		I did.
		Okay, where are you?
unidentified		I am in Orlando, Florida.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Orlando, yes, sir.
unidentified		Orlando.
		Yes.
		And we did not get any of the stuff with Cordmichael Stallion tonight.
		Aw.
		Are you going to repeat that anytime soon?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, I'm sure we will.
		And, of course, it'll be available on the net.
		Do you have a computer?
		No.
		Well, then you have nothing that's going to fail, do you?
unidentified		No.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay.
		Well, all I can tell you is I'm sure they will repeat Gordon.
		They always do.
		When Gordon speaks, everybody listens.
unidentified		Great, and we were dying to hear what he had.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Maybe you could give it to Highland.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Just what was it that the Orlando affiliate was doing that was so important?
unidentified		They were covering Lake Eola firework.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That's all right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		We'll get a repeat on for you, all right?
unidentified		Or give us a couple of highlights, even tonight?
unidentified		That would be exciting.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Let me think about that.
unidentified		Okay.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
		I think I want to play this for Mr. Harrison.
		As the millennium approaches, folks, it's on the way to the west coast.

		Hollywood Strive is lit up in multiple colors.
		It is the Hollywood sign as never seen before in this city.
		Lit up by lasers and lights and the cheering of people here at the Paramount Studios in Hollywood and across the city at civic celebrations all over this farplung city.
		Hollywood in technicolor, lit up, dotted with color and lasers, as this city has never seen it before.
		The new millennium has reached Hollywood.
		With New Year's festivities on the Las Vegas Strip, here's Steve Butterman in Las Vegas.
		Well, they're celebrating here as well on the Las Vegas Strip.
		You may hear the crowd in the background.
		The Las Vegas Strip has been shut down for several hours as tens of thousands of people gathered here.
		And when the final seconds were being counted down, you could hear the crowd chanting 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.
		Some fireworks went off, but just a celebration going on here in Las Vegas.
		Now, last year, there were some disturbances after the new year began.
		So far, though, police say there have been no problems.
		There have also been no computer problems, major computer problems, that is, anywhere throughout the world.
		Let's get the latest from the Y2K desk and CBS News correspondent Barry Bagno.
		The crisis that wasn't, that's what Y2K has turned out to be, at least so far.
		Some power plants experienced glitches, but nothing major.
		In fact, no American utility has reported an outage.
		Trains and planes are operating normally.
		ATMs are dispensing money.
		White House Y2K coordinator John Koskinen warns developing countries may not yet be out of the woods.
		I will not be surprised, and I don't think anybody should be surprised if we start to see problems reported in the next three or four days in some of those countries with their operating systems.
		Live now from New York's New Year's hotspot, Times Square.
		Here's CBS News correspondent Dan Revived.
		All went well three hours ago when the multicolored ball made of almost 700 halogen lights plus mirrors came down the pole high above Times Square.
		New Yorkers and out-of-towners totaling around one and a half million people filled the square.
		We drove down from Canada, 10-hour drive to get here, so we're in here for a long haul.
		What's it been like?
		What's it been like?
		Well, kind of crushing in from the back here.
		It's a little tight squeeze, that's all, but it's a lot of fun.
		Yeah, cage the animal.
		It's worth it.
		Definitely worth it because it's a millennium.
		Once in a lifetime.
		Similar story in Washington, D.C., where President Clinton, his wife Hillary, and daughter Chelsea joined over 100,000 people enjoying fireworks.
		The sky above Washington's dark white landmarks, the Lincoln Memorial and the Washington Monument looks like a giant sparkler.
		Streams of blue and gold fireworks and red, white, and blue laser beams are filling the first morning of the year 2000.
		That's White House correspondent Peter Mayer from Times Square.

unidentified		Officials say many children don't quite know what all the fuss is about.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		One seven-year-old boy called to say he was afraid to go outside because he was worried terrorists were coming.
unidentified		The counselor reassured him.

		There's a lot of zeros in there, I'll tell you.
		That was pretty close.
unidentified		So check it out.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Check out the photo on my webcam right now.
		It's kind of cute, I think, but I'm going to leave it up there.
		Other than that, the streaming video continues, and I might add, I've got this little guy, this little fuzzy animal, and when you squeeze his right hand, I don't know if you're going to be able to hear this or not, I'm going to try it.
		You squeeze this little-I don't exactly know what he is.
		He's a millennium creature or some kind of wiggle.
		Listen to this.

unidentified		Now, I will inform everyone that we are making our own time capsule of all this millennium stuff.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		No, we're gonna bury it really deep.
unidentified		We're gonna bury it really, really, really all right.

		That's a cute picture we did.
		So, if you get an opportunity, take a look at the studio camera.
		And I have had one glass of champagne, so that's all.
		So, it should be an interesting remaining portion of the show.
		Now, they're showing a shot on CNN of somebody in Seattle.
		It looks pretty windy in Seattle, I would say, right now.
		And she's got a big jacket on, and I wonder what's going on.
		Well, what's going on in Seattle?
		You tell me.
		West of the Rockies, you're on the air.
		Hi.
unidentified		Hey, Art.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Hey, there.
unidentified		Good to be on the show.
unidentified		We're out in New Mexico.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay.
unidentified		And everything seems to be fine.
unidentified		But I just really think there's going to be a terrorist act out in Seattle.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, you do, huh?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, apparently Seattle thought so too, because, of course, they called off the major celebration there.
unidentified		Yeah.
		And I'm from the San Francisco Bay Area originally, and I'm kind of glad I'm not there as well.
		San Francisco?
		Yeah.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		The thing about terrorism is, thank God we haven't had any yet, but it can happen anywhere.
		You know, the last place that anybody thought that a building would blow up would be in Oklahoma.
		And that's where it happened.
		So I don't know, I wouldn't say anywhere is safe.
unidentified		Well, I was.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And all of us have got to stay on the alert.
unidentified		Yeah, I was commuting on that bridge that collapsed and left town right before that happened back in the big earthquake.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You were commuting.
		I'm hearing something.
		What's all that in the background?
unidentified		Oh, it's our little party.
		I'm in the other room now.
		No, when that superstructure collapsed and all those people were trapped in the highway.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes.
unidentified		That's where I used to commute to work on a daily basis.
unidentified		Right around that time, I would have been on that highway.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		But you got out of there before that occurred.
unidentified		Yeah, I moved out of town, and I just have a bad feeling now about the Bay Area.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, everybody's always nervous about the Bay Area.
		Everybody's always nervous, and they have reason to be, because there's a big fault line there, and every now and then, it hiccups.
		The End To make this commercial.
		Okay, very good.

unidentified		Well, my wife's in one end of the house.
		A buddy of mine's in the other end of the house.
		And I've got the radio on in the living room, and I'm here in the back.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I see.
unidentified		All right.
unidentified		Gordon Michael Scallion hasn't missed over about 94%, if I remember right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, he's got a very high rate of hit.
unidentified		Well, I would say he's going to make about 96 to 98 next year.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		In other words, you agree with what you heard?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes, sir.
unidentified		We've been listening to you since the minute you came on.
unidentified		My wife and I listen to you every night.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		This is going to be my first eight-hour programs.
		I used to do six-hour programs as a matter of course for about 10 years.
		Yes, sir.
		But this will be my first eight-hour job.
unidentified		We wish to the good Lord above that you'd do eight hours every night.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You must be a Wiccan.
unidentified		No?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I'm just kidding.
unidentified		I work nights.
		I'm a heavy equipment operator.
		I work nights, and my wife listens to you whether I'm home or not.
		And I've listened to you for years.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, thank her for me, please.
unidentified		Well, she's listening on the other radio in the other end of the house.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		She just did.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		What's her first name?
unidentified		Benny.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Benny.
		All right.
		Well, you just said hi to her.
		Okay.
		Thank you.
unidentified		Thank you.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And a happy new year to you.
		Well, now Hawaii and our Alaskan friends await.
		I understand that finally it is so cold in some parts of Alaska with ice fog that they're not going to be able to fire off the fireworks.
		Is that true?
		Remember, on our international line, if you would like to reach us from somewhere else in the world, I'll simply get hold of the AT ⁇ T operator and have her call 800-893-0903.
		And on the first time caller line, you're on the air.
unidentified		Hi.
		Hi, Art.
		How are you doing?
		All right.
		Great.
		This is Chris from Orlando, Florida.
		WPDO 580.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Hi, Chris.
unidentified		Hi, how are you?
unidentified		Okay.
evelyn paglini ▲ ● ▼		Let's see.
unidentified		My prediction is that Ramona will have a spiritual experience this year that will be life-changing, in my opinion.
		That's what I think.
		And I love your show.
		And here's a YCK update from Central Florida.
		All right.
		Our crossing arms for the trains here in DeBerry.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes.
unidentified		We're just bouncing up and down last night and this afternoon.
		No, uh-uh.
		Just the lights were going and the arms were going up and down and kind of bouncing.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		well, how do you get across that?
unidentified		Well, I kind of drove around.
unidentified		I drove through.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You're sort of waiting for the right time.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You're driving and you dash across?
unidentified		Yeah, I inched off and I look both ways.
unidentified		It looks safe, so.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		But it's probably not Y2K-related.
unidentified		You know, I've watched CNN since 5 a.m. this morning, so I sound a little tired.
unidentified		It's been up all day, but everything, every glitch that's gone wrong, they said, and it's not Y2K compliant.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I know, related, yeah, that's right, I know.
unidentified		Right, related.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Including some pretty big power outages, too.
unidentified		Yeah, that's what I've heard.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That's what I've been hearing about.
		All right, thank you very much.
		Yeah, that's true.
		I guess there's a kind of a bias toward not reporting problems.
		But surprisingly, then earlier, the Pentagon was reporting some sort of communication difficulty, which I found really surprising.
		Because if you're going to avoid reporting things that are occurring in the general population that are really not so serious, why would you go to the Pentagon and why would they report something?
		Odd, huh?
		East of the Rockies, you're on the air, hi.
		Art Bell.
		Yes, sir.
unidentified		I'm so glad to hear from you again.
unidentified		Glad you called me.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, I didn't call you.
unidentified		You called me.
		Gosh, that's weird.
		I just thought you wanted to talk to me.
		Well, anyhow, I bet you'd like a report on the Santa Fe Railroad, wouldn't you?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		What's going on with the Santa Fe?
unidentified		Well, I'm in Wellington, Kansas, about a half a mile from the very main line of the Santa Fe Railroad.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes, sir.
unidentified		There hadn't been a train through all night long.
unidentified		Usually.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So, in other words, they actually stopped traffic.
unidentified		They shut them down.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, that'll prevent a glitch.
unidentified		Prevent a train wreck, anyhow.
		Yeah.
		No trains are not going to wreck.
		Anyhow, I thought you'd like to know that as precautionary measure, they just shut the line off.
		You're right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I mean, a lot of things have actually shut down.
		A lot of transportation.
		I know the airlines are operating between 20 and 35 percent below averages.
		They've shut down some communication.
		They've shut down some computer systems and blah, blah, blah.
		A lot of things are shut down.
unidentified		Usually, about every 15, 20 minutes, we've got a mile-long freight either going east or west through here, blowing your whistles with great vigor.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		They do that in the middle of the night and wake your butt up, huh?
unidentified		It keeps the population constant here.
		Wellington.
		I can't understand this.
		You've got 30,000 people in Perump and one traffic light.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, yeah, but I know we've got another coming soon.
unidentified		We've got 9,000 people in Wellington and probably six or seven traffic lights.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Do you, really?
unidentified		Yeah, but the railroad has kept the population stable here for 40 years.
unidentified		Wakes people up at night, nothing else to do, so it keeps the population stable.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, apparently your town council must have nothing else to do.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		They just keep buying traffic lights.
unidentified		Well, at least we're making an improvement.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		They took two of them out.
unidentified		I've got a prediction.
unidentified		What number will it be?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		59.
unidentified		59.
unidentified		Well, the Messiah will not return in the year 2000.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And what do you base that on?
unidentified		Bible studies.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		But in the Bible, it says nobody will know.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So it could as easily be 2000 as not.
unidentified		Yeah, but at the same time, it says if you see clouds coming out of the west, you know there's a storm coming.
		When the wind blows from the south, you know it's going to be warm.
		It gives you several things to look at as a sign before the Messiah comes.
		These signs are not in place yet.
		Okay.
		All right, but it'll be.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		No Messiah in 2000.
		I got you, sir.
		Good to talk to you and to you.
		And the trains are not running.
		Yeah, I think they've done that actually with quite a number of systems that they were concerned about.
		They simply shut them down.
		Now, will there be problems over the next few days?
		Yes, I suspect so.
		But you have to admit, the early going with regard to the Millennium has been damn good.
		I mean, you've got a whole world to worry about out there.
		And there are going to be some sporadic problems, and we're having a few of them, but nothing too serious yet.
		Once to the Rockies, you're on the air.
		Hi.
unidentified		Hello?
unidentified		Hello?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes, turn your radio off.
unidentified		All right, Dad.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Turn it off, please.
unidentified		All right, Bob.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay, where are you?
unidentified		Anchorage, Alaska.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, Anchorage, huh?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		How cold is it up there?
unidentified		Oh, probably about 10 below.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		10 below.
		I guess it must be a lot colder in Fairbanks because I'm hearing they had to cancel the fireworks.
		Oh.
unidentified		Oh, really?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
unidentified		I heard it is colder.
unidentified		I don't know about the fireworks, though.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		What can I do for you, sir?
unidentified		Oh, I had a prediction for the new year.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right, number 60.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		What is it?
unidentified		Are you familiar with the rock group Millie Vanilli?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, Millie Vanilli, yes.
unidentified		Yes.
		Oh, one of them overdosed or something and he died.
		And so my prediction will be that aliens will bring him back on the 5th of September next year, and they'll do a reunion tour.
		Really?
		Yes.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Will it really be Millie Vanilli this time?
unidentified		I believe it will be, yes.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, then.
unidentified		We'll have an alien-enhanced voice.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Goodbye.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		First time caller lying, you're on the air.
unidentified		Hello.
unidentified		Hi, Ardell.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes.
		How are you?
		Pretty well, thank you.
unidentified		And Happy New Year.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And the very same to you.
unidentified		Thank you.
		I'm calling from like Tip City, Ohio.
		Okay.
		And I just had a little funny observation tonight.
		Nothing happened, of course.
		Everything's cool.
		The world didn't blow up.
		And I was going to pick up a friend because when the world didn't blow up, we decided to go have a donut and a cup of coffee.
		That was our big excitement for the night.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Are you in the police force?
unidentified		No.
		No, not at all.
		But there were eight law enforcement officers in a little town called West Carrollton, Ohio that surrounded one car.
		And I thought, my God, what did this person do?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		What did they do?
unidentified		Had a flat tire.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		The eight policemen had a flat tire?
unidentified		Yeah, it was a little bit of an over-response, maybe.
unidentified		I don't know.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Did they change the tire for the person?
unidentified		No, no.
unidentified		They just, they all were standing looking at it.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		They were supervising.
unidentified		Yeah, I think so.
		Yeah, I think they were bored.
		I really think that they expected more to be going on in the world and nothing was going on.
		So they went, hey, you guys, this guy's got a flat tire.
		It looks like all over there.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, my God, a flat tire.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Code, code, dream.
unidentified		I have a prediction for you, too.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes.
unidentified		On the 186th day of the year 2000, I predict that all across the United States, in every state, in every city, in every little town, people will be celebrating with fireworks and picnics and eating hot dogs.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Fourth of July.
unidentified		Yeah.
unidentified		I'm not going to predict that.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That's a sure thing.
unidentified		Well, yeah, that's the kind of predictions that I'm going to do.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You know, you're like the guy who watched Boris Yelson resign on CNN and quickly called me last night and said, Boris Yelson's going to resign.
unidentified		Well, I'm sorry.
unidentified		I just, I wanted to go with something that I could, you know, be pretty sure of.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, it's a sure bet, all right.
unidentified		Okay.
		I wish you and all of yours the best.
		I enjoy your show so much.
		You're a breath of fresh air in this world.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, I'm here anyway.
unidentified		Thank you.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Take care.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Wildcard line, you're on here.
unidentified		Hello.
unidentified		Hello, Art Bell.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes.
unidentified		Happy New Year.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Same to you.
unidentified		This is Damien calling you from the East.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Ah, Damien, the evil one.
unidentified		Yes.
		Well, not so evil now.
		It's quite joyous looking all around the world.
		How everyone's having a good time.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You mean even Damien is having an uptime tonight?
unidentified		Yeah, well, obviously it was kind of sad for me because...
unidentified		No, I've got other levels, other parts of me that is more benevolent, believe it or not.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Not.
unidentified		Not?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Anyway, what's up?
unidentified		Well, I wanted to make a prediction.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		A Damien prediction.
unidentified		A Damien prediction.
unidentified		Okay.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It'll be number 61 because I blew off the 186th day.
unidentified		Oh, my.
unidentified		I was hoping to be number 66.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Of course you were.
unidentified		But okay, the prediction is that you are and I are going to meet in person sometime between January 1st and December 31st.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Somewhere during the year.
unidentified		Yeah.
		You and I will meet in person.
		And as we look into each other's eyes, as I see your glowing red eyes bearing down on me, your life will become enhanced for the better.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It will enhance me for seeing your beat red eyes?
unidentified		Yeah.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Glowing red eyes?
unidentified		Those glowing red eyes will enhance your life even better and greater.
		And at the same time, it will enhance my life too.
		A mutual exchange of energy, positive energy.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You know, I don't know about positive energy from somebody with a name like yours.
unidentified		Well, there's many people with my name, and there's also exceptions to the general rule that all Damiens are.
unidentified		Right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Especially old ladies downstairs and stuff.
unidentified		Yeah, right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right, Damien.
		Well, you never know.
		We just might meet.
unidentified		That's true.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You're not in New York City, are you?
unidentified		I'm in Massachusetts.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Massachusetts.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, I'm going to be in New York City pretty soon.
unidentified		Well, I'm moving to New York City pretty soon.
		Damien.
		I was supposed to already be there, as a matter of fact.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
unidentified		Later.
unidentified		Oh, what's that song you're playing?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Do you remember it?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Can you name that song?
unidentified		True love.

unidentified		No doubt, Alva.

unidentified		Bye-bye.
		I love you, I love you Do what we've got You say you're gonna go on it quick You're gonna jump it all Break our love.

		This is Coast to Coast AM with Art Bell on the Premier Radio Network.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You know, it occurs to me that I've got all these oldies, and I think I've got $100 for anybody who can name every single Oldie on Any one of my CDs.
		For example, the CD I've got right here.
		And this gives you a lead because it's on right now.
		But anybody who wants to call and thinks they want to take the $100 challenge, I can afford $100 for just naming every song when I play a few bars of it.
		Now, you missed one, that's it.
		I'll let a couple of people try that.
		I'll put a $100 bill at Chris.
		So if you think you're really good, and I mean, you'd have to be really good, you let me know, and I'll let you take the $2,100 challenge.
		The End To make this commercial more believable.
		Well, I'm very sorry to be reporting a fatality in Las Vegas.
		It seems a young man fell off a light pole and died instantly, I'm told, in Las Vegas, just over the hill.
		And I guess there's going to be some of that sort of thing going on.
		There have been some arrested and so forth and so on.
		But that's kind of a yearly event in Las Vegas.
		Usually people don't die who fall off light poles.
		But it depends, I suppose, on how you land.
		So that's very sad.
		Yeah, that's it.
		Anybody can do this and name every song on any given CD, and I have selected one here.
		You've already got one of the songs on it.
		If you can name the others, I will send you a personal check, an Art Bell, Remotabel, personal checking account check for $100.
		Do I feel safe?
		I hear my wife laughing in the other room.
		It was either a laugh or a scream.
		I can't tell which.
		You think anybody could do that?
unidentified		I don't.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That's what I think, too.
		Money's safe.
		First time calling a line, you're on the air.

unidentified		Okay.
unidentified		That's what you got to do when you get on the air.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, I hear a little one there, too.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes, and that little one doesn't sound too happy.
unidentified		I heard earlier someone called from, I believe it was Columbus and said that the power was out.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		They did, yes.
unidentified		Yeah, well, 20 after 1 also here on East Point that you said in Detroit the power was out.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, it was?
unidentified		Yeah, it was on the news.
unidentified		They said it also didn't have anything to do with Y2K.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Of course it didn't.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That's a lot of power failures that have nothing to do with Y2K.
unidentified		That's what I said.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, would they lie to us?
unidentified		You want to know the truth?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, absolutely.
unidentified		Yeah?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, they would.
		You're right.
		You want to make a prediction?
unidentified		I can't really think of anything.
unidentified		I think that there's something going to go on with Russia within the next 90 days, but I don't know what it's going to be.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, probably nothing very good.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
unidentified		Thanks for the call.

unidentified		No.
unidentified		Well, then...
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Are you good?
unidentified		I'm not terribly good, but I'm not bad.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well.
unidentified		Does that make sense?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, I don't know whether it does or not.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I mean, how old are you?
unidentified		I'm 50.

		Well, you might be able to do it.

		What the heck?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Here we go.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You ready?
unidentified		Uh-huh.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You miss one, you're out.

unidentified		Yeah.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, well.
unidentified		Well, I have no idea.
unidentified		No idea.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
		Well, others will now have an idea, so they now have probably two, because a lot of other people will have that one.
		I mean, it wasn't that hard.
		Really?
		Is that what you think?
unidentified		I just thought.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, that wasn't even close.
unidentified		Oh, okay.

unidentified		No, I sure don't.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You're one of them.
unidentified		I am.

art bell ▲ ● ▼		You're going to be sick.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, I know.
unidentified		Oh, man.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Don't let that buzzer sound.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		All I can say is it was good talking to you.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		I've been trying to get through for a million years.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, now I'm going to really make you sick because that's the one that I played going into the last.
		It's called Working My Way Back to You by the Four Seasons.
		I mean, I even named it, and that's the one you blew.
unidentified		I know.
unidentified		Well, what can I say?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
unidentified		Thanks for the call.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		All right, bye.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Take care.

		On the international line, you're on the air.
unidentified		Hello.
		Hi, Art.

art bell ▲ ● ▼		If I checked my email when?
unidentified		Yesterday.

unidentified		Yeah, I sent you an email, the youngest listener.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes, I saw your email.
unidentified		Yeah, what did you think?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I thought it's still there.
		I mean, I haven't cleared it out yet.
		It said your youngest listener.
unidentified		Yes, I started listening when I was 10.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes.
unidentified		Yeah, I got hooks on your program.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And now you are how old?
unidentified		13.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You want to make a prediction?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It's your one opportunity.
unidentified		Okay, what number will it be?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		62.
unidentified		62.
		Yep.
		That you're going to be in the hospital or a breath near death or something?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That I'm what?
unidentified		You're going to be in the hospital.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I'm going to be in the hospital.
unidentified		Yes.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Why?
unidentified		I don't know.
		I had a dream last night.
		Really?
		That you were in a hospital bed.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I was sick, huh?
unidentified		Yeah, something.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, that's a pretty downer prediction.
unidentified		Well, from my youngest.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		From my youngest listener.
unidentified		Yeah.
unidentified		All right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, listen.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		We'll see.
unidentified		Okay.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right, take care.
		I've had worse.
		I've got predictions that I will die.
		Usually that I will be off the air.
		And that's been going on for the better part of 15 years now.
		First time caller line, you're on the air.
		Eventually, they'll be right.
		You're on the air.
unidentified		Hi.
		Hi.
		Yes.
		Hi, how are you?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Fine.

art bell ▲ ● ▼		Thank you.
unidentified		I want to make a prediction.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It will be number 63.
unidentified		Okay.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Following my being in the hospital.
unidentified		Okay.
		I hope that doesn't happen.
		I predict that the society will be told about something serious and they will go into mass hysteria.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You mean like E.T. presence, that kind of thing?
unidentified		I don't know.
unidentified		Just something, just the way I saw people react today to just thinking of Y2K and the way they were in the stores just was unbelievable.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		How were they?
unidentified		Where are you again?
unidentified		I'm in Bakersfield, California.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Bakersfield.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And what were the stores like?
unidentified		Crazy.
		People were buying bottled water by the cartfuls.
		There was no water.
		They were arguing.
		They were buying it right down to the individual bottles in the cases.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Really?
unidentified		And it's like last minute.
		I just went to do my regular shopping, and I stood in line for maybe 25 minutes just to go through the grocery line.
		The gas lines were crazy.
		I couldn't believe it.
		It was unbelievable.
		I'd never seen anything like it before.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, I know that a lot of people think it's all over now, but it's not.
unidentified		No.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Not by a long shot.
unidentified		No.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Actually, until we get into the business day next week, we're not going to know.
		What we do know now is the power didn't go tumbling down, which is a good thing.
		But there's still going to be a lot of disruption, and it's going to begin next week.
		Mark my words.
unidentified		And people should have been prepared already, not wait till the very last day.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You're quite right.
unidentified		I couldn't believe it.
		It was scary.
		I was really scared.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, people get a little strange when they get worried.
unidentified		I guess.
		I wasn't really worried.
		I just went to do my regular shopping.
		I was already prepared.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, but people can worry you.
unidentified		Yeah, they did.
unidentified		I was wondering, should I get more water?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I know.
		Well, that's how it works.
		Do you know that once Johnny Carson said that there was going to be a nationwide shortage of toilet paper?
		And this is serious.
		Everybody ran out and bought toilet paper.
		They thought he was serious.
		And there did become, you couldn't get toilet paper no matter what.
unidentified		Oh, my goodness.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It actually happened.
unidentified		And the media can do that.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.

art bell ▲ ● ▼		That's it.
unidentified		I got a prediction for you, too.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It'll be number 64.
unidentified		I say that this year you're going to become the king of the herb-infused flavored oil pizza sauce empire.
		And you're going to market and make a million.
		You want to taste it.
		I was listening the other night.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It is the most pizza punch.
		It is the most incredible.
		I wouldn't eat pizza without that in a million years.
		As a matter of fact, my wife has to make more.
		She can't keep me in this stuff.
unidentified		Well, you know, I know you won't give the recipe away, but I wish you would because I'm dying to try it.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I'll tell you what I'll do.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I'll have some made up, And we'll send it out to selected listeners and get their opinion.
unidentified		Okay, that sounds great.
		Also, I'm sorry I missed Gordon earlier.
		I was the guy called on the West of the Rockies at the end.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes.
unidentified		You know what I wanted to ask him was what he thought would happen if they actually put the capstone on.
		Why they stopped him.
		They looked at him scared.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Trying the machine would turn on.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
unidentified		What was this that Daniel said?
unidentified		Something about changing the Earth's magnetic field?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You mean Gordon?
unidentified		No, you remember Daniel last time he was on.

		Daniel.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes, well, a lot of people are talking about that.
		Oh, yes.
		That there is a magnetic shift imminence.
		That there's one that's going to occur.
		And by the way, what Gordon had to say earlier tonight resonated with what Ed Dames has been saying now for about a year and a half with regard to the sun.
		It was really close.
unidentified		Everybody sounded alike.
unidentified		That's what's starting to get scary.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You know what scared me more than anything else?
unidentified		What?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You getting all those songs right.
unidentified		Well, I'm 43, and you shouldn't have got me on that one.

art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right, see you later.
unidentified		Bye-bye.
unidentified		Bye-bye.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Actually, it was Peter and Gordon.

		We ought to make up some pizza punch and send it out to some people.
		It's so unique.
unidentified		It's so good.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		We might try it.
		It's just something that we have never somehow gotten around to, but maybe we'll do that.
		It is incredible stuff, folks.
unidentified		Well, yeah, for a while.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		They'll never get through all this.
		There's no way.
		You think they're going to make it through that, for example?

art bell ▲ ● ▼		There was a bomb threat in Anchorage?

unidentified		It was at the TAC downtown, forming outside.

		Somebody called in a bomb threat and they evacuated the whole downtown area.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, brother.
unidentified		All it takes is one person.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, apparently so.
		I take it that no bomb has been found.
		It's just somebody who wanted, apparently, to ruin the night.
unidentified		Probably.
unidentified		Yeah, they haven't said anything more about it.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, I'm sure sorry to hear that.
		Yes, ma'am.
		Okay, thank you for the report, sir.

		Because Anchorage is a pretty...
		Now, what do I mean by closed?
		Well, not really closed, but I mean close.
		A close community, or at least it was.
		Now, I guess Anchorage is now really a big city, and so I guess you can expect it like anywhere else, but I'm sorry to hear that.
		West of the Rockies, you're on the air, huh?
unidentified		Hello, Art.
unidentified		Hello.

unidentified		I'd also like to say Ramona sounds like she's having just entirely too much fun back there.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It is.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		She is.
unidentified		God bless her heart.
unidentified		And the other thing is, my dog just, now, this sounds funny, but my dog has predicted that Central California is going to have an earthquake.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		How did he do that?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I mean, was it sort of like a six-point earthquake?
unidentified		Well, no, I can't say exactly what point it's going to be, but she just freaks out.
unidentified		She did it last time, and she did it again tonight.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay, Dog predicts earthquakes.
		I mean, when?
		How soon?
unidentified		Within the next few weeks.
		And I predict you will be the king of the next big pizza chain across the United States.
		And the other thing is, if you would have run an ABBA CD, I probably still couldn't have got it, but I really would have liked to hear the clip.
		Well, that'd be a giveaway.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I mean, you can't run one group, and then you get a groupee of that group who just names them right off, and there goes my 100.
unidentified		What kind of deal is that?
unidentified		Well, it's kind of a sure bet.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, for you.

unidentified		We had to call the fire station and ask.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		50 below zero is unreasonably cold.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Why would a person, most Americans would ask, choose to live in a place where it gets to be 50 below zero?
unidentified		I don't know.
		I was just born here.
		I don't know.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So in other words, you've never known anything else?
unidentified		No?
unidentified		Yeah, because I was born here, so.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Have they ever taken you on a vacation down to Hawaii?
unidentified		Not yet.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So in other words, you're Alaskan through and through.
unidentified		Yep.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, you got to be hearty.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Because 50 below zero, that's cold enough you can go outside and throw liquid up into the air and it comes down in ice crystals.
unidentified		Points of Mexico, is that telling you go to Hawaii?
unidentified		Warm there.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Would you like to go to a warm place?
unidentified		Um, not really, because I don't like the air.
unidentified		We have dry air here.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It's like there's ice in your blood.
unidentified		Yeah.
unidentified		Okay.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, do you want to make a prediction or what's on your mind?
unidentified		Um, I don't know, just say happy New Year's to you, because we couldn't get through.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, you've made it through.
unidentified		Yeah, we made it through once, and then you said disconnect and you party and everything happened.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I know they do that.
unidentified		All right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Thank you very much for the call, and stay warm.
unidentified		Be both.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay, 50 below zero.
		Now, I've been in those kinds of temperatures a couple of times.
		I lived in Anchorage, and occasionally, you know, like a couple of weeks during the year in Anchorage, it'll dip down to those sorts of temperatures.
		I believe I saw 54 degrees below zero in Anchorage, and I saw 70 below in the Yukon.
		And that scared me.
		It's like, you don't stop the car.
		You know, you just keep going.
		And those were the days on the Alcan Trail when, you know, you could go a couple of hundred miles between gas stations, and you were always hoping the next one was going to be open.
		Scary stuff.
		West of the Rockies, you're on the air.
unidentified		Hi, Art.
		Hello.
		Hi, Art.
		I am your winner.
		I can win.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, no, you can't.
unidentified		Yes, I can.
		I've beaten Dick Bartley's Quiz Man.
		I can beat you.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Who is Dick Bartley's Quiz Man?
unidentified		Oh, you've never heard it?
		Dick Bartley runs a syndicated old oldie show called American Gold, and he has a contest called The Quiz Man, where he plays just a couple of beats of three oldies.
		And if you name all three, you...
		Uh-huh.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You really think you're up to that, huh?
unidentified		I really do.
		All right.
		Listening to it over the phone might make it a little harder, but you know.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It might, but I mean, you'll hear it pretty well.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You ready?
unidentified		Uh-huh.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay, here we go.
unidentified		Okay.
		It's just a thing.
		Bye.
		Ricky Nelson Travel Men.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That's right.
		That's one.
		Yeah, here we go.
unidentified		Well, rocks are bad, baby.
unidentified		In the street, love.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And that is.
unidentified		Rockaby Baby, but I have no idea who it's by.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		No, that's sufficient.
unidentified		You're right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It's Rockaby Baby.
		I thought you'd blow that one for sure.
		Gave you the title right away.
unidentified		Yes.
unidentified		Little Peggy Martin.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I will follow him.
		You're scaring me, sir.
		All right.
unidentified		All right.
unidentified		Happy birthday 315, the old Padaka.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, man.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I'm going to have to hang up on you.
unidentified		Martin.
		Huh?
		Oh.
		You got me on.
		Really?
		Yeah.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You're going to be sick.
unidentified		Talk too much.
		Talk too much.
		Jojo.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Good shot, anyway, sir.
unidentified		If you had kept on with the 60 stuff, there would have been no problem.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, I know, but I was beginning to see my hundred fluttering away.
unidentified		No, yeah.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I'll see you later.
unidentified		All right, bye.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right, bye.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		First time going online, you're on the air.
unidentified		Hello?
unidentified		Hi, Art.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Hi.
unidentified		Happy New Year.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Happy New Year to you as well.
unidentified		I have some news and a prediction.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		News, huh?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay, what is the news?
unidentified		First news.
unidentified		I'm in Samaritan, Texas, which is right by Brownsville.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You're in what town?
unidentified		Santa Maria.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Santa Maria, okay?
unidentified		Yeah, it's right by Brownsville, Texas.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, which is way down there.
unidentified		Yeah.
unidentified		I spent my New Year's at my cousin's house, and we had several things happen.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Like what?
unidentified		First of all, when the Sparks for Swell, all these cell phones, we were using one cell phone, and it went out.
		And none of the cell phones down here work.
		Really?
		They all stop working.
		They can't call each.
		The home phones work.
		But the cell phones don't work.
		You can't call two of them and they can't call each other.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, sounds like the cell phone company has a little work to do.
		What is your prediction?
		Because I don't have a lot of time.
unidentified		We will find that Al Gore will have a mental illness.
		Really?
		Yeah, but I'll have some more things happen at midnight.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		We're not going to have time to cover it.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, quickly, what else?
unidentified		Okay, street lights don't work.
		Life went out for 20 minutes.
		And all the computers set their dates for January 4th, 1980s.
		All the home computers.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		But otherwise, none of that is Y2K related, they're saying, right?
unidentified		Yeah.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You have a good morning, sir.
unidentified		You too.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right, take care.
		We'll be right back.
		It's the bottom of the hour.
		I'm Mark Bellin.
		This is Coast to Coast AM.
		And even through 2000 and 2001, don't break that chain.
unidentified		And it's blue and blue, watch the sun rise.

art bell ▲ ● ▼		You know what this is?
		This song?
		I've played it for years.
		I think I've been playing this song now for, huh?
		I don't know, 10 years.
		It's a very special piece.
		It's called Little Ballerina Blue.
		It's by George Fischoff.
		And a couple of years ago, George Fischoff contacted me, and I was desperate.
		I had an old tape, you know, and it was from something very scratchy, but I would play it anyway because I love the piano so much.
		And somehow, George Fischoff in New York got hold of me and thanked me for playing the record and said, I said, Sammy, you've got to send me a copy.
		And so he said, well, there aren't any.
		Well, maybe a couple of 45.
		So he found a new 45 of it and sent it to me.
		And I got it.
		And I realized I don't have a record player.
		I don't have anything that would play a record, a vinyl record.
		But my network did, so I sent it to my network, and they, of course, preserved it for me on a better medium.
		And that's what this is, George Fischoff at Little Ballerina Blue.
		I'm Art Bell, and it's a new millennium.
		And it looks like it's going pretty well out there, folks.
unidentified		THE END All he hears elected.
unidentified		All right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Let us now examine some of the somewhat pathetically incorrect predictions made for 1999 in 1998.
		Number 63, China marches into North Korea.
		Bonk.
		Number 64, Denver wins the Super Bowl by three.
		Now, I'm not sure about this one, but as I remember, it was more of a knockout than that, so I'm going to give it a bonk if I'm wrong.
		Somebody correct me.
		Number 65, the 49ers by 14.
unidentified		Well, bonk.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Number 66, a device to stop interrupting yourself will be devised.
		Ding, ding, ding, ding.
		You know what?
		As horrid as it is, this stupid little sound actually has prevented me from interrupting myself.
		Okay, I can't stop it like that.
		But it has done that, so you've got to give that a ding.
		Number 67, map drugs to go to work for the inquirer.
unidentified		Bonk.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Number 68, Ken Czar indicted for abuse of power.
unidentified		Honk.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		He was, I believe, investigated, but not indicted.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Number 69, major drug bust in Menlo Park.
unidentified		Bonk.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And I believe there was.
		Ding, ding, ding.
		I'm going to call that a ding.
		Number 70, Prince Charles dies in 99, Bonk.
		Number 71, big UFO sting at Area 50.
		Oh, sighting.
		I'm sorry.
		At Area 51.
		Not really.
		I mean, there's sightings all the time, but not a big one.
		Number 72, a nuclear reactor melts in South Korea.
		Oh, no, somewhere in the world.
		Oh, nothing melted.
		Number 73, in April, a 15% drop in the Dow average.
		Now, you know, that might be it.
		I'm going to ding that one because we had, didn't we have the Asian crisis about then?
		I think that's about right.
		I'm going to give that a ding.
		Number 74, device to help blind people to drive would be invented.
		And I'm going to put a question mark by that because I don't know of one, but it may be.
		Number 75, on New Year's Eve, predicting now for 1999, it would be wild, crazy, and rioting.
		Well, there sure was in Las Vegas.
		Ding, ding, ding, ding.
		Number 76, there would be an advance in alien knowledge.
		I've got to bonk that because there may be, but I just don't know about it.
		Number 77, the Pope dies.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Bonk.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		He, in fact, made it, folks.
		The Pope made it.
		I really didn't give him a big chance, but you've got to know that man had intestinal fortitude and he just pushed himself to make it.
		Number 78, grocery stores to require membership.
		Bonk.
		That would have to be at least the majority of them.
		So that brings us to number 79 as we continue in last year to take new predictions.
		And on the first time, caller line, you're on the air.
unidentified		Yes, this is Bill from Anchorage, Alaska.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Hi, Bill.
		Do you know anything?
		Can you confirm or deny?
		Some earlier caller said there had been a bomb threat up there.
unidentified		Yes, there has.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, there was one, huh?
unidentified		We had approximately news.
		We're estimating 10,000 people in the city of Anchorage.
		They had nine blocks blocked off for the entertainment for the new year.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Right.
unidentified		And at 11 o'clock, they had a bomb threat in the performing arts building.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, brother.
unidentified		And they evacuated the performing arts and the Egan Center.
		And the fireworks were to go off at midnight.
		They postponed that until 10 minutes after.
		And still did not let anyone in the building.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, at least nothing actually happened, right?
unidentified		No, nothing did.
		Just a prank.
		Evidently, a prank call is still being investigated, and if they can catch the culprit, he will be prosecuted to the fullest.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, unusual to have that happen.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I said earlier that Anchorage is kind of a close community.
unidentified		Yes, it is.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It's now a bigger city than when I lived there, but still, I'm sorry to hear it.
		Anyway, welcome to the program.
		What's up?
unidentified		Well, I wanted to let everyone know that I heard you call the last night when you had a lady from Fairbanks call.
unidentified		Why would we live in Fairbanks at your blow?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, she, of course, has lived there all her life and knows nothing other than.
unidentified		Well, I lived there in 1964, and my oldest son was born at 75 below.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Really?
unidentified		25 below when I brought him home.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And thought him out.
unidentified		Yes.
unidentified		And I stayed there until 67.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And you finally, and what drove you away, finally?
unidentified		Nothing.
		I'm in Anchorage.
		The only thing that threw me away from Fairbanks...
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Anchorage is the banana belt compared to Fairbanks.
unidentified		Oh, yes, it is.
unidentified		But see, I got washed out during the flood.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, I see.
unidentified		They said it wasn't going to, you know, it wasn't going to be any problem when the snow melted.
		It moved the river, which is on First Avenue.
		It moved it to 6th Avenue.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Actually, a lot of people don't know this, but Anchorage is not, except for a couple of weeks maybe during the winter, not that bad.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Really, you get more snow in Wisconsin and places like that.
unidentified		Yes, you do.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And on average, it might even be colder.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		But I have seen it just about, well, between now and about the middle of February, it can get down to 50 below an anchorage.
unidentified		I've seen that.
		Well, it hasn't for the last 15, 20 years.
		I'll grab it anchorage to 67.
		February is the coldest.
		I can remember back in all the early 80s, it got down to 25 below in Anchorage.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I remember 54 degrees below.
		Now, I was outside of Anchorage, but...
		Not that far out.
unidentified		Just down there.
unidentified		If you were at Eagle River or down in Gerwood, yes, you'd get...
art bell ▲ ● ▼		No.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right, well, listen, do you have a prediction for us?
unidentified		I predict that your listing audience will double within the next year.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Listening, that would be really something.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I'm not sure there's that many people in the world.
unidentified		Well, you produce a show that is right on and really makes people think and question.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It does do that.
		I hear a little tutoring in the background there.
		Yes.
unidentified		Yes, we have a friend of ours that's been New Year's Eve with us, and she has all your books.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Even the newest one.
unidentified		Even the newest one.
		And matter of fact, that's what she gave me for Christmas this year.
		And last year, she gave me the Beijing and gave my wife the license responses provided.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, I thank you for the call and all that obvious support.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Thanks so much.
unidentified		Thank you, sir.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Take care.
		All right, that's Anchorage, Alaska.
		Well, I guess they did have a bomb threat.
		Shame so many cities down here in what they call the lower 48.
		They say they call it other things down here, too.
		We went through it without being scathed, basically.
		He tells me the Naval Observatory clock screwed up.
		Now, that would be something.
		That apparently a report on a website about the Naval Observatory clock.
		So there's going to be a lot that's going to happen over the next few days.
		East of the Rockies, you're on the air.

unidentified		Hello, Art.

unidentified		My prediction is that the biggest new internet service provider will be Kmart when they offer it for free.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You think they're going to do that?
unidentified		Yes, they are.
		As a matter of fact, I know they're going to do it, and I think they're going to do very well.
		Believe it or not, it's going to be called blue light.com.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You know what?
		I think there's going to be a lot of that, a lot of free service.
		It's not exactly free.
		In other words, there's going to be advertising.
unidentified		Yeah, and I'm sure you have to answer questionnaires.
unidentified		Yeah.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So you want to try this, huh?
unidentified		Yeah, what they want to tell you.
		I know you play that song Heinrichman when Willie Nelson was on.
		Yes.

unidentified		Okay, that's you Splay's with a wiggle with a wiggle when she walks.
unidentified		I think it was the freshman, but I can't be certain about that.

art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right, that's a pretty big piece there.

		There have been a number of things that I would consider strong evidence.
		Number 83, that I will have the opportunity to interview Neil Diamond.
		Well, I didn't interview him on the air, but in fact, I met him in person during the year.

		Ding, ding, ding, ding.
		Take that picture with him, too.
		Number 84, I'm not going to give on the air.
		Number 85, on September 12th, the king of terror will arrive.

unidentified		Hello.
		Hello.
		All right, it's great to talk to you.
		And, oh, hello, Romana.
		You know what?
		What?
		I just thought it'd be great to call you and tell you that, well, in a way, I'm kind of bummed that nothing happened here in Portland, Oregon.
		My name is Chandra.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You're bummed about it?
unidentified		Well, only slightly.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, look, Y2K, if that's what you're bummed about, is not over by a long shot.
		I think a lot of people around the country think that because nothing happened at midnight, for which I'm thankful, that means Y2K is over.
		Well, wrong.
unidentified		I know, which I totally understand and agree with you.
		But I have a lot of people that have been giving me a lot of, well, you know what.
		Yeah.
		And the thing of it is that I just kind of wish that at least the lights would have blinked a little bit here in Portland.
		But that's okay because I keep telling them that if they aren't ready for anything, I mean, two years ago, I was ready and we had a snowstorm and a freezing rain like crazy and I was ready.
		Yeah, there it is.
		Right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		No, it's good to be ready no matter what.
unidentified		That's right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Because inevitably, what you don't expect is going to happen.
unidentified		Exactly.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So don't be bummed out.
unidentified		I'm not really bummed out.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Maybe we should all be rather joyful that there wasn't trouble right at the new year because it would have been real trouble.
unidentified		Well, of course.
		Because I also have a daughter expecting a baby in another time zone.
		And so I was kind of getting a little hyper here.
		But other than that.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You want to make a prediction?
unidentified		Yes, actually I would.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Number 70.
unidentified		All right.
		I feel that more people are going to go to more natural...
		How should I put this?
		I keep trying to figure out how to put this.
		Maybe Ramona could help me.
		I am into...
		Oh, well, yes, but see, I'm into natural herbs and I plant and I gather.
		Evelyn Paglini, when I heard her tonight, I was so excited.
		It was awesome.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, she's awesome.
		She is.
		So, all right, fine.
		So people will gravitate more toward natural remedies and potions.
unidentified		Exactly.
		Okay.
		Thank you very much, Art.
		You're very welcome.
		And Ramona, you, both Al and your son, have a wonderful new year.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Thank you so much.

unidentified		Hi.
unidentified		Hello.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You would have been.
		Wildcard line, you're on the air.
		Hello, Horace.
		Chris in Fairbanks.
		How you doing?
unidentified		Oh, it's a little out.
unidentified		Really?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		50 below?
unidentified		Yep.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I threw coffee outside and turned into brown snow.
unidentified		Yep.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		At this, let's see, at this time of night, there would be, at this time of year, there would be no, virtually, no sun.
		Well, we got about three hours of sun today.
		Three hours of the sun, huh?
unidentified		And I'm giving it the benefit of the doubt.
unidentified		I don't know if it was the sun or the moon.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, as I recall, the sun kind of comes up to the horizon and then quickly goes down.
unidentified		That's pretty much what it does: it waves as it flies by.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You're right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And it goes up two degrees and just about.
unidentified		I got two things for you.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		One is a cat story I think you'll get a kick out of.
unidentified		My parents picked up a 15-pound tomcat, an outdoor cat.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Right.
unidentified		And about two months ago, it got attacked by three dogs.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And so they took it to the vet because its rearing got torn up.
unidentified		Well, about a week or two ago, they hear this racket going on outside.
unidentified		My dad's outside looking around.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		He sees this tomcat, O'Malley, jump on top of a full-grown black Labrador retriever and attack it.
		Oh, I like stories like that.
		Cats usually lose.
		But, boy, I'll tell you, if a cat can get on a dog's back, it's going to be a ride.
unidentified		Well, the vet said this thing is the size of a bobcat.
unidentified		So it gives you an idea of how big it is.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, cats rarely win, so it's interesting to hear such a story.
unidentified		Yeah, my dad had to pull him up before he hurt the dog.
unidentified		Oh, geez.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I've got some pretty big cats, but nothing like that.
unidentified		Well, my prediction is that by the end of this year, there's going to be some new technology to replace fossil fuels for a power system.
unidentified		And it won't be solar, and it won't be wind.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It'll be something better.
unidentified		Really?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I hope you're right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You better be right because things are changing fast.
unidentified		Yeah, it'll be nice, too, when it happens because it'll get us off.
		Everybody up here in Alaska is worried about oil and stuff, trying to base the economy on fossil fuels.
		Luckily, the university is trying to push it for a like silat launching system.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		A lot of people in the lower 48 here don't understand that people who live in Alaska for a certain amount of time get a check every year, an oil royalty.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Are they still doing that?
unidentified		Yeah, and thankfully they've moved away so much from oil.
unidentified		Now they're investing in the stock market and investing in other markets.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So most of the money now is they're trying to get it away from the oil and put it into other areas so we can still get their residual income.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Wow.
unidentified		Yeah, so they're actually starting to think ahead now, which is pretty impressive.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		They're trying to cap it this year, but they voted against it.
		That's really something.
		What's going on with population in Alaska?
		Is it continuing to increase or decrease or remaining roughly stable or what's going on?
unidentified		Well, I guess anchorage is increasing pretty much, but up here in Fairbanks, it fluctuates.
		One year is larger, one year is lower.
		It depends how many people are at the military, how many are up at the college, that type of thing.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, I would really like to come back to Alaska.
		And I told my wife I wanted to come to Alaska, and she said, well, fine, buy me a fur coat.
		And if you buy me a fur coat, I'll go.
		And so I bought her a fur coat, and I really ought to book a flight up to Fairbanks.
unidentified		Oh, you ought to, especially around, actually later this month or early in February.
unidentified		It'd be the best time to come up here.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		When she's hovering around 60 or 65 below?
unidentified		Oh, no, it won't get down that low this year.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		No?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		We had a Chinook last week.
unidentified		They got up to 34.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, I heard that.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Everybody actually was complaining.
unidentified		Yeah.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, he got up to 50 above in North Pole.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		A friend of mine likes 50 below, so he was kind of...
unidentified		Yeah.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I appreciate your call, sir.
		All right, thank you.
		Thank you.
		And that was prediction number 71.
		East of the Rockies, you're on the air.
unidentified		Hi.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Who are?
unidentified		Hello.
unidentified		How are you?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, quite well.
unidentified		Okay, first of all, I've got to tell you some kind of freaky thing that happened here in Portland, Maine.
		White whales came into the harbor, and that's the first time in like a...
		This occurred the day before the time changeover to the new millennium.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Really?
unidentified		White whales came into the harbor and just at that same time, the whole street, this is towards the waterfront in Portland, Maine, dogs were barking.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, that's really odd.
unidentified		That's strange.
		Something about your type of music that you listen to, and perhaps I'll talk to you off the air about it, you know, if we can go on hold of something.
		And I have a gentleman that's up here that's like the Bob Crane, only he's in music.
		He's been a disc jockey, and I won't mention his name or anything, but he can get you anything either on vinyl or on.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, listen, I have sources you wouldn't know.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I'm fixed up there.
unidentified		But anyway, my prediction is that you will double your finances due to winnings.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Winnings?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I just lost $100.
unidentified		No, I mean like a good gamble.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Good gamble.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		A good gamble.
unidentified		A good gamble.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
		Well, I've been known to gamble, not the type of gambling that goes on here in Nevada, but other kinds of gambling.
		Thank you.
		It's better than ending up in the hospital.
		That's one I had earlier.
unidentified		And by the way, my daughter, the one that referred you to the name as like, how long was it now?
		She referred you to the desert riot.
		Oh, yes.
		As to you living in the desert, and she assumed that you had like doom buggies and stuff.
		She laughed.
		She, quite frankly, laughed a lot about the fact that you were going to send this Daryl guy from the TV station home.
		And that's what she was telling all her friends.
		She says, did you kick a toolbox clear across the floor, and he was going to send this guy home.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right, sir, I've got a scoot.
		As a matter of fact, I didn't do a break, and I either catch up here or they send somebody to get me.
		so let me take care of you.
		THE END Commercials are more effective if you use real people.

		First time caller line, you're on the air.
		Hi.
unidentified		Hi, the impeccable art Bell.
unidentified		How are you, sir?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I'm reasonably well for a guy who just blew $100.
unidentified		Yeah, I heard about that.
		That's too bad.
		Sorry.
		This is Chris from Peoria, Illinois.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes, Chris.
unidentified		A couple of different things.
		First, I'd like to convey a hope for the new millennium as well as a prediction.
		First of all, my hope is that the people of the United States will realize that the legalization of marijuana is a necessity.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, I think the people of the U.S. have long now realized that.
		Or at least, I don't know about necessity.
		I'm not sure that's the right word.
		Well, maybe it is.
		Maybe it is necessary to revisit the whole question of marijuana.
		The trouble is we came up with a president who, you know, had that stupid remark that he made that blew any chance of...
unidentified		Yeah, yeah.
		I see where you're coming from.
		Just from a medicinal standpoint, I believe that marijuana should at least be legalized from that point of view.
		Well, of course.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		There have been ballot initiatives, as you know.
		True.
		And there probably is going to be more of that.
		I mean, eventually it's going to move that way.
unidentified		But we just can't seem to cross the line to get it finalized.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, I hear you.
unidentified		Yeah.
		As far as the prediction, this may have been mentioned earlier.
		I'm not positive.
		But in the year 2000, I believe that the first human clone will be perfected?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I don't think it's been mentioned.
unidentified		Okay.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Somebody did predict that for last year, and I bonked it because we don't know about it.
unidentified		This will definitely be the year.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		But you're saying it'll be a public matter?
unidentified		Yeah, it'll be in the public eye, but the time has come for the people to actually see the benefits of cloning, also from a standpoint of giving people extended lives from donated organs.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		From your clone.
unidentified		Exactly.
unidentified		Exactly.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And not a lot of people consider that to be a big benefit.
		I mean, you do if you need a liver, for example.
		Well, yes, sure, sure.
		But the clone is its own individual person.
		Even though it's identical, it will have, because of environmental considerations and everything else, it'll be a human being.
unidentified		True.
unidentified		As far as we know, that's true.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, yeah, ripping its organs out on need or request, you know, it's not going to go over real well with that person.
unidentified		I think the problem that a lot of people have is they assume that the clone will automatically be enabled with a soul.
unidentified		And by looking at it that way, I can see where from a vantage point of like a religion, it's a touchy subject for people.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, I know if it was me, I'd say, I have a soul.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Keep your hands off my liver.
unidentified		True, true.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		But I do agree with you that we are that close, and we probably will clone a human.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		For better or for worse, we're going to clone a human.
unidentified		Oh, I hope so.
unidentified		I hope so.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right, sir.
unidentified		All right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Thank you and take care.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Wildcard line, you're on the air.
unidentified		Hello.
unidentified		Hi.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Hi.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Turn your radio off.
unidentified		Very important.
unidentified		This is Dave from Kingdom of the Night.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		From where?
unidentified		The Kingdom of the Night.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, here in Prump?
unidentified		Yeah, gotcha again.
		No kidding.
		Welcome.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Proceed.
unidentified		I predict for the population of Prump to increase 30,000 more.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		30,000 in one year?
unidentified		Double.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, man.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You could be right.
unidentified		The freeway.
unidentified		The freeway is why.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, I know.
		The population of Prump doubles in one year.
		That would be too much.
		Yeah, you could be right.
unidentified		Yeah, it looks like it's going that way.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Me?
		You know what I want?
		That Walmart.
		Where the hell is our Walmart?
		If we had a Walmart out here, life would be complete.
unidentified		It's supposed to have been on its way a couple of times.
unidentified		I know.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I know.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I've heard all the rumors, but I don't see any ground moving around for a Walmart yet.
unidentified		Well, I think that's where the population, when it comes in, that's what will come with it.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I appreciate your call, sir.
unidentified		Thank you.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Thank you.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, by the way, that's number 74.
unidentified		Okay, and maybe you can get that pizza punch.
unidentified		Market is for next year.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		We'll see what we can do.
unidentified		Okay.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right, take care.
		Easy to the Rockies, you're on the air.
		Hi.
unidentified		Ooh.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Now, that did not sound good at all.
unidentified		What the hell was that?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		West of the Rockies, you're on the air.
unidentified		Yeah, happy you, Jerry Art.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Same to you.
unidentified		This isn't Arnie in balmy downtown Fairbanks, Alaska.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
unidentified		I had a prediction.
		I believe that you and Ramona will be involved in a highly successful business venture centered around the design and marketing of a line of clothing.
		Casual clothing.
		Really?
		Yeah, based on the Night People theme.
		This will be very popular with the younger generation.
		I really just have a gut feeling that it's going to be.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, Ramona might certainly do something like that, but when it comes to me and clothing, if I didn't have Ramona, I'd be wearing the same thing every day.
unidentified		Well, so would I if I didn't have my weapon.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, that's an interesting prediction.
		It's number 75, by the way.
		Oh, thank you.
unidentified		All right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So we'll see.
unidentified		Thank you, Eric.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Take care.
unidentified		Me?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You know the piece of punch I do have?
		That's all over my clothing.
		First time call our line, you're on the air.
unidentified		All right, how you doing?
unidentified		Happy New Year.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And same to you, sir.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Where are you?
unidentified		Buffalo, New York.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Buffalo.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes.
unidentified		Hey, I was wondering, did you happen to hear about the reference to yourself in the February issue of Guitar Player Magazine?
unidentified		No.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		What did they say?
unidentified		Well, it's an interview with Billy Gibbons, a ZZ Top.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, yes.
unidentified		And apparently on their new album, CD, whatever, they have a song called Dreadman Boogaloo.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		They do indeed.
		I've got a copy of it here.
		Okay.
		And they use Ross Mitchell, my announcer, East of the Rockies, West of the Rockies, Wild Guard Live.
unidentified		Okay, well, it says that the name of the song is based on the reggae expression Dread, which means the feared or cool.
		So a Dreadman is sort of a dude in the know.
		That part of the title was inspired by Art Vowel, who is the host of a late-night a.m. radio show we tune in after working in the studio.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I know, I was so honored by that.
		I mean, ZZ Top.
		That's sort of a way of being immortalized.
		Sure.
		You know, so I was very honored.
		Sure thing.
unidentified		And I am pleased that he has such good taste as a listen to the same radio as I do.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, that's kind.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		But I did not know it was in that magazine.
unidentified		Oh, yeah.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I'll be doing it.
unidentified		Okay.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes, sir.
		Thank you.
		Thank you.
		Thanks for the information.
		Wildcardline, you're on the air, hi.
unidentified		Ah, hello, Art.
		This is Tony from Geary, Indiana.
		Hi, Tony.
		And I wish you a very, very good new year.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Thank you.
unidentified		And I hope none of this bad stuff comes up for you.
		All good.
		I'll get right to it.
		I do believe that in this year, there will be a nuclear exchange.
		Oh.
		It may only be in one direction, but there will definitely be an aggressive use of a nuclear weapon.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, you've got to believe we're getting closer, and it's going to happen eventually.
unidentified		It's frightening, but I think things are getting out of hand, and I think there's enough time, and it just seems to be running that way.
unidentified		It may not be major, but it'll be enough to really stir things up because it's only happened once before.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I appreciate your call, sir, and that's number 76.
		And, you know, I don't necessarily disagree with this caller.
		Probably India and Pakistan, possibly North Korea, and possibly something we don't even imagine, one of the suitcase nukes.
		Who knows?
		But with a little bit of luck, there'll be a small loss of life if it occurs.
		And it will remind the world again why you don't use those things.
		But I have a sneaky feeling the scholar is correct.
		East of the Rockies, you're on the air.
unidentified		Hi.
unidentified		How you doing?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Turn your radio off, please.
unidentified		Yeah, I just turn it off.
		My name's Sean.
		I'm in Delaware.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes, sir.
unidentified		And I'm also a ham operas.
unidentified		When Scallion was on, he talking about the sunspots?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, he was right, by the way.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		There is a storm going on right now.
unidentified		Yeah.
unidentified		Well, when the sunspots increase, doesn't the radio wave propagation increase?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes, as a general rule, as the number of sunspots increase, propagation gets better and better on the short wave bands, yes.
unidentified		Prediction.
unidentified		I predict that there are going to be more and more UFO sightings and possibly landings.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I'd agree with that.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		More UFO sightings and maybe a landing, huh?
unidentified		I'm just a technician right now, but I'm working on the upgrade.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, they just...
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You heard about that, huh?
unidentified		Yeah, they recently.
unidentified		I know the code, but I just haven't had time to go up there and take the darn test.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		A lot of older hams are going to really raise hell about that.
unidentified		Yeah, I know.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You know what?
		They're wrong.
		They're wrong.
		And I appreciate your call, sir.
		What the commission has done is to reduce the code requirement for all classes of license, including the highest, to five words per minute, which is very, very slow and very easy to obtain.
		And I'm glad they've done it.
		It will increase the number of hands, and I don't think the fear of the quality of the people obtaining licenses will be justified.
		I think that you'll find that we'll still get a good group of people, and the technical test is still there, so they've got to know what they're doing.
		Welcome to the Rockies.
		You're on the air, huh?
richard c hoagland ▲ ● ▼		Hi there.
richard c hoagland ▲ ● ▼		This is Olin in Culver City.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes, sir.
richard c hoagland ▲ ● ▼		I think that Boris Yeltsin stepped down to let a younger, more energetic leader for winning the war in Chechnya and building the New World Order.
unidentified		So I predict that Russia will conquer the Chechen oil fields next year.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, I'd say you're probably right about that.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		This is a guy pursuing a victory in Chechnya, and I'm sure now he will really have his way, and there's going to be, who knows what's going to occur over there.
unidentified		Well, that's right.
richard c hoagland ▲ ● ▼		I understand that he's a military leader, so that could be bad.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Do you find it, as a matter of fact, he's a former KGB and spy.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Do you find it strange that there has been no U.S. reaction yet to the fact that Yeltsin just, I don't even think they knew in Washington that it was going to happen.
richard c hoagland ▲ ● ▼		Well, a lot of these things are done when there's something else taking up all the news headlines like Y2K and New Year's Eve.
richard c hoagland ▲ ● ▼		So whatever did happen got buried in the Y2K New Year's Eve celebration.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, it did.
		You're right.
		But in a way, it also scared the hell out of me.
		I mean, here I was the night before, and the millennium was just breaking when Yeltsin went on TV and resigned.
		And do you think he resigned or was resigned?
richard c hoagland ▲ ● ▼		Well, I think that he was resigned because they need to win that war in Chechnya and get those oil fields.
richard c hoagland ▲ ● ▼		And if we're going to have a new world order next year, we need a younger, more energetic leader of the Soviet Union.
unidentified		I mean, the rest of the world.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		We're not going to have a new world order.
		Well, I hope not.
		I think you're right about Chechnya, but I don't think you're right about the New World Order.
unidentified		Well, thank you very much for doing this.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Nevertheless, your prediction is registered number 78.
unidentified		Oh, good.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
richard c hoagland ▲ ● ▼		Thank you.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You got International Line, you're on the air.
unidentified		Hello.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, hi, Eric.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Hi.
unidentified		Calling from Canada?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes, sir.
unidentified		Vancouver Island.
		Okay.
		Has anybody mentioned the royal family today?
		No.
		Okay, well, I'm going to say that Prince Charles becomes king.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		For sure.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Prince Charles becomes king.
unidentified		Yeah, and I'm not going to call him the Antichrist.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		With a cup of tea or something?
unidentified		No, no, I think he's a false prophet.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Really?
unidentified		Not the Antichrist.
unidentified		Yeah, yeah.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, I don't think he's the Antichrist either.
unidentified		But, you know, like, you remember the Brookings report?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Of course.
unidentified		Well, I think the problems still exist, you know, like look at how people have started freaking out about Y2K.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Actually, actually, people, by and large, really didn't freak out about Y2K.
		It was done rather smoothly, I thought, and you've got to give the authorities some marks, good marks for that around the world.
		They did pretty well.
unidentified		Yeah, the handled was pretty good.
		And so what about the landing?
		What better person to tell the world that the aliens aren't that bad than a non-threatening person like the King of England?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		A lot of people respect them.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		A cup of tea.
unidentified		Yeah.
unidentified		I have a good one, Eric.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Right, you two.
		First time caller line, you're on the air.
		Yeah, Art.
		Yes.
richard c hoagland ▲ ● ▼		This is Ron from Dead Man Lake, Alaska.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Hi, Ron.
		Hi.
		Boy, now there's a name, Dead Man Lake.
richard c hoagland ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, well, you know, I sent you a video a couple years ago.
richard c hoagland ▲ ● ▼		I don't know if you remember getting it.
unidentified		I fly a score and crossbone flag out in front.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I do that, too.
		I do it in the back, but I occasionally fly it.
		I think we've got the French flag up there right now.
richard c hoagland ▲ ● ▼		You don't remember me sending you that video then?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I vaguely do, but...
richard c hoagland ▲ ● ▼		Well, anyway, we've got about 62 below out here for the last two days now.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		62 below.
unidentified		62 below.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Where exactly are you?
unidentified		We're towards Manley Hot Springs.
richard c hoagland ▲ ● ▼		That'll be about 80 miles west of Fairbanks.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		West of Fairbanks.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, man, you are out in the middle of nowhere.
richard c hoagland ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, well, I live on a fly-in remote lake.
richard c hoagland ▲ ● ▼		In fact, I don't have anybody around me right now for 10 miles away.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So you're using what?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You obviously don't have a telephone there.
unidentified		Oh, actually, you know, I used to have a radio telephone, and I bought this cell phone, and I bounced off of the mountain and picked the signal up from the tower near Fairbanks.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		No kidding.
		Yeah, no kidding.
		Well, it's working very well.
		Actually, you sound better than a lot of people who are using portable phones down here.
unidentified		Yeah, isn't it amazing?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, absolutely amazing.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, well, it is.
richard c hoagland ▲ ● ▼		Well, I'll tell you, Art, if you ever get up this way, you'll have to come out to the real bush.
richard c hoagland ▲ ● ▼		This is the way to live.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You're in the real bush, all right.
richard c hoagland ▲ ● ▼		No electricity, no running water.
richard c hoagland ▲ ● ▼		Chop a hole through three to five feet ice to get my water.
unidentified		And how the hell do you keep warm?
		Right now, I got my wood stove 400 degrees.
		It's just people stuffing the wood in there.
		Me and my three cats.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Do you have three cats?
richard c hoagland ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, three cats.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I imagine they stay pretty close to that wood stove.
richard c hoagland ▲ ● ▼		They do.
unidentified		Yeah.
unidentified		They do.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Cats love warm places.
unidentified		Oh, they do.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And it's so great to talk to you, Art.
unidentified		I just, you know, I know a lot of people out in the bush listen to you.
		And you'd never hear from them because most people don't have communication out here.
		I hear you.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Listen, I've got one last number 80 prediction if you would like to make it.
richard c hoagland ▲ ● ▼		Yes, I would.
unidentified		And I predict that the stock market is going to take a big rise.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		How big?
unidentified		I think it's going to go through the roof.
unidentified		I think it's going to be fantastic this year.
richard c hoagland ▲ ● ▼		Especially since this Y2K thing didn't turn out to be as bad as everybody thought.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I think you're making a really, really good point.
richard c hoagland ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, in fact, another prediction, I predicted after this cold snaps over, I'm going to go to Hawaii for a week.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		In other words, even for a hardened Alaskan, 62 below is pushing it a little bit, huh?
unidentified		Yeah, well, I've been out here for six winters now, so it's as cold as I care to see it, you know.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I hear you.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, listen, you qualify, I think, as my most remote caller of the night.
unidentified		Well, thank you, Art.
unidentified		And it's great talking to you, and keep it up.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, listen, tell everybody from the middle of nowhere good night.
richard c hoagland ▲ ● ▼		Well, you know, we were going to have a big New Year's party tonight, but everybody had to cancel because it was too cold for the snow machines and the dog sleds tonight.
unidentified		So we were going to have a log cabin party about 15 miles from here, and my friends Bill and Cheryl canceled out.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, tell them good night.
richard c hoagland ▲ ● ▼		Okay, Art.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Good night.
		Good night.
		That's it, folks.
		That's eight hours in a row.
unidentified		Boy.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Long haul.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Long haul, but it was fun.
unidentified		Happy New Year, everyone.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Happy New Year, everyone.
unidentified		Samoa?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yep, Samoa is about to welcome the millennium, and that will make it complete all the way around the earth.
		That'll be, oh, about two and a half minutes from right now.
		For me, that's it from the high desert, Art and Ramona.
		Good night, all.
		AMA 40, KXNT.
		Ever wanted to see some local news?
		We bring you the world.
unidentified		We bring you the world.
		CBS News, I'm about to live in Appia, Samoa, in the world's last time zone.
		It was a long wait here on this South Pacific island, but midnight has just arrived, and people here have joined the rest of the world in welcoming the year 2000.
		Outside, fireworks are going off over the South Pacific, while here inside the Susa Sala Hotel, the party's going strong.
		Samoa is just a short distance from the island of Tunga, where midnight first came 25 hours ago, the extra hour because of daylight savings time.
		Here on the other side of the date line, the arrival of midnight means the entire globe has now entered the 21st century.
		I'm Bob Fuzz live in Ambia, Samoa.
		Now for more CBS News, here's Steve Davis.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		The new year is an hour old in Hawaii.
		Fireworks in the 50th state marking the new millennium.
		The big year 2000 party was in Times Square, and CBS News correspondent Dan Raviv was there.
unidentified		All went well when the multicolored ball made of almost 700 halogen lights plus mirrors came down the pole high above Times Square.
		The lights didn't come out on Broadway.
		What happened to Washington Bay?
		It didn't happen.
		Here's a plot.
		Here's a plot.
		New Yorkers and out-of-towners totaling around one and a half million people filled Times Square.
		Kind of crushing in from the back here.
		It's a little tight squeeze, that's all.
		But it's a lot of fun.
		Yeah, change the animal.
		It's worth it.
		Definitely worth it because it's the millennium.
		Dan Reveeves, CBS News, Times Square, New York.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		In Washington, the ball was packed with people for fireworks and singing.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		President Clinton toasted the 20th century and he looked ahead.
unidentified		Never before have we had such a blessed opportunity and therefore such a profound responsibility to build the more perfect union of our founders' dreams.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		In London, CBS News correspondent Kimberly Dozier watched the celebration there.
unidentified		It's a thing of faith and looking straight up.
		A million people are down here waving fast forwards and Millennium flags.
		We're right in the middle of the fireworks display over the River Thames.
		This is the biggest fireworks display London has ever seen.
		A fitting way to bring in Y2K to Britain.
		Kimberly Dosiers, CBS News, London.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		The Millennium Bug didn't bite.
		All around the globe, things for the most part seem to be working normally.
		Just minor problems here and there.
		No blackouts, no ATM problems.
		And Transportation Secretary Rodney Slater says people are having no trouble getting around.
unidentified		There have been no significant interruptions or Y2K-related difficulties in aviation or for that matter in other modes of transportation, rail, maritime, highways, transit, and pipelines.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		There was a problem with time at the U.S. Naval Observatory.
		Right after the year 2000 was welcomed along the East Coast, the webpage for the observatory claimed the year was 19,100.
		But there was no problem with the master clock at the Naval Observatory, which loses a second every 3 million years.
		This is CBS News.
		Friends, this is Larry King.
		Most of you know me as a straight shooter, so when I endorse a product or a company, it's cooked.
		One person glad to see the year 2000 is Matt Sanders.
		The 23-year-old Texas college student survived for nearly a week on a Swiss mountain.
		He found shelter under a rock, protection from hurricane force winds and sub-zero temperatures.
		He's in a hospital now.
		He's okay, but he may lose some toes because of frostbite.
		In Olata, Kansas, a woman who said she was upset over losing her job took hostages at a bank.
		The standoff ended an hour after midnight when the woman surrendered.
		No one was hurt.
		A lot of people rang in the new year traditionally with champagne, but in New Orleans, it was a Bloody Mary, and there was plenty to go around.
		And DeCon Abbey helped serve it out of a 10-foot-tall glass.
unidentified		Nobody has ever created a Bloody Mary this day.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And in New Orleans style, typically they said goodbye to 1999 with a jazz funeral.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Steve Cape and CBS News.
unidentified		Nonsense.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Who says you can't eat the foods you love?
		Hello, this is Art Val.
		What you are about to hear is a special new millennium tape featuring futurist Gordon Michael Scallion and technical remote viewer Ed Dames.
		Major Ed Dames.
		Now, I've interviewed Scallion several times in the past.
		He's the real McCoy.
		His predictions for our future leave most of us underwater or with Beachfront property.
		Be forewarned, much of the content of this program may be disturbing and is not meant for the faint of heart.
		Now, let's find out who Gordon Michael Scallion is and what may be in store for us.
		Gordon Michael Scallion, in the middle of a business meeting, law, middle of a presentation, they took him to the hospital.
		He had some serious experiences in the hospital.
		He saw visions.
		He saw a woman who told him certain things were going to happen within 30 days.
unidentified		They did happen.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		In successive years, he treated as many as 10,000 people with what he saw and was able to see about these people, the medical things, what was wrong with them, what might correct it under some conditions, about two-thirds of the time.
		And then that phase ended, that predictive medical help phase ended, and another phase began.
		Gordon saw things.
		The easy way to explain it is three TV screens with three possible futures for an individual or for a continent or, I suppose, the world.
		And one of these screens would be brighter than the others, or perhaps there would be gradients between them, and the brightest would be the most likely, and so forth.
		I think you get the idea.
		At any rate, the phase with helping people personally ended.
		And then what happened, Gordon?
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Then I began to have a series of nightmares.
		Again, I had this one dream where I was told that that part of my life, that work that I was doing, was over, and that I would very shortly have a new series of things that I would be doing and would need to do.
		And it was very vague, very vague, rather.
		So the Second night, I began to see the Earth as the same way that I would see people on my screens.
		I would see three different Earths.
		And each night I would see things happening, such as volcanoes would erupt.
		And then I would look at a city, for example, and I would see the city in one color, and the other two screens would be different colors.
		One would be very vibrant, the other would be almost gray or black.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Just the way you look.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Same way.
		And it was at that point that it just hit me.
		I mean, I should have known this all my life as a child.
		I just didn't.
		I didn't get it.
		But I realized that the Earth was sentient.
		It was a living entity with its own consciousness, obviously different than ours, but yet able to communicate just as we do if we only took the time to listen.
		And I think the natives, peoples of the world, have always done that.
		And I just think in our busy society, we have just shut down so many things of our awareness.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I'm just a lay observer with regard to the weather, but it's obvious there is a profound change underway.
		Now, the only question I have as a casual observer is, is this change we're in short and cyclical or long and profound and serious?
		What are we into?
		More tornadoes?
		You were right about that.
		You called that one on the money.
		And violent weather all over the place.
		Now, what are we in for?
		Where are we going with this?
		Is it going to get better or worse?
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Actually, this is part of a cycle.
		El Niño is a cycle, but it's forced scientists to rethink cycles.
		It's forced them to look at things much differently because they were much longer, much more intense than they ever had been before.
		And it seems like we've been in this cycle for years now.
		And what we're seeing is each year we're seeing an increase in the amount of weather-related destruction.
		You know, in December of last year, for my predictions for 99, the key things that I saw, at least for the United States, was record numbers of tornadoes and floods that far exceeded the floods that I had predicted for 93, the Mississippi floods, far beyond that.
		And so we're going to see this year weather-related issues, massive floods, and the tornadoes are going to continue.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		What's happening to us, Gordon?
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		The trigger for all of this, I believe, can be found in the core of the Earth.
		I believe I address it pretty thoroughly in my book, Notes in the Cosmos, where I talk about how the core of the Earth has shifted its position ever so slightly.
		But that's set into motion a lot of changes that's forcing magma to change its directions and it's literally outputting more heat, if you will, or allowing more heat to exit through the various layers.
		Since the Earth is predominantly water, it makes sense logically to me that that heat is going to end up in the oceans.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So this is energy coming from within.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Coming within.
		And I believe that this is the true cause of El Nino.
		I believe that the winds and the current scientific theory only drives those.
		It only drives it, but the source of it, the initial source is coming from within the Earth.
		Now, coupled to that is something that both you and I know from our ham radio experience is that the sun also goes through a cycle of approximately 22 years.
		We know it as the 11-year sunstop cycle.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		And we're coming up to cycles at 23, I believe.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		As a matter of fact, Gordon, 48 hours ago, for the first time in the ascension portion of 23, we hit a solar flux index of over 200.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, that was another prediction that I had made in my book and also had said later last year, I said it in my predictions for 99, was that things to watch for was that we would start to have massive amounts of solar emissions.
		Now, that in turn feeds back to the Earth and causes more heat to come out of the Earth as well.
		So it's like a symbiotic relationship that's dancing back and forth.
		All of this is caused by the precession of the equinoxes or the cycle of our Earth's rotation and the sun system as we go through the ages of, most people are familiar with the astrological ages of Aquarius and Pisces and so forth.
		That grand cycle is approximately 26,000 years.
		And at the extremes of that cycle, approximately 13,000 years, there is massive devastation on the Earth.
		The last one we had was approximately 12,500 years ago, where we had all the weather changes on the planet.
		It was global.
		That's where they found the thousands upon thousands of animals frozen in Russia and dried.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		The 13,000-year mark.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Is that a precise mark, Gordon?
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		I don't think it's as precise as some of the people who follow this and believe in this concept.
		I think from a geological or even an astronomical point of view, it's relatively accurate, but accurate to within 100 years, 50 years, I don't know.
		But I know that they've done core samples.
		And through those core samples, they're able to date times that the Earth's magnetic field has changed its positions.
		Now, that's something that in our lifetimes we haven't experienced, but through cores, we can see that there's a cycle there.
		That cycle seems to be running about 12,000 to 13,000 years.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, the recent research that I've heard about all of this, Gordon, seems to indicate now that these changes, they originally thought occurred over very long periods of time.
		Now they're beginning to say, well, you know what?
		Maybe, according to the core samples, the changes occurred quite rapidly.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		The information that I follow, at least the scientific papers that come across my desk and are mailed to me, and a lot of these are by people who are with JPL or NASA.
		There's a very large scientific body who send me things very quietly, some anonymously and some actually put their names on it.
		And they tell me that, you know, when I started doing predictions even in the early 80s, it was thought to be, like you said, maybe over 150 years time period that this thing could have happened.
		Because of our technology today and our more accurate way of dating, we went from 150 years to maybe 50 years to maybe 10 years.
		And now they think they've got it down.
		They definitely have it down to the actual month and probably the week in the month that it happened.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Wow.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		They were able to do this by digging up some of the mastodons that were frozen and stride, and they still had buttercups in their mouths.
		They were still digesting food.
		And by looking at the flowers, they could tell what time of the year it was.
		They knew exactly what time of the year it was.
		So the same flowers are growing today in that same area.
		So they know that part of it.
		Now the next part of it was how to get it down.
		So they're down now to less than 10 years when it could have happened, and they're probably thinking this thing could have happened within months.
		Eventually, it'll be known that this thing happened literally in days.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		In days, my God.
		Well, you know, some thousands or hundreds of thousands of years from now, whatever it is they look back at us, with the amount of preservatives that we put in food right now, they'll be able to look into the mouths of woolly human beings and it'll be very well preserved, whatever it is.
		So anyway, so the changes that we are now in, that we're experiencing right now, I mean, I could open up the phone lines and take report after report from Canada to Mexico and all the way across, and everybody would say something is wrong with the weather.
		I mean, really wrong with the weather.
		And so obviously we want to know where it goes from here and how fast the current cycle of changes will put us into a strange position or worrisome.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Last year, as you know, the last time I was on your show, I had, which was, I think it was July of last year, I had said that I really felt that there were great changes coming up by November, weather-wise, and that it wouldn't surprise me if we had some massive solar flares and that if the and also I felt that the temperature of the planet had just had just increased and we probably were going to break a record.
unidentified		So last year we did break a temperature record.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Now, I expect that that's going to happen again.
		It doesn't make sense, the scientific community is saying no.
		The reason that I think that the weather changes are just beginning, not trailing off as being reported, is because we have now have another cycle adding to our own Earth core shift.
		And that's the solar flare cycle that we're into now.
		And these flares are going to be much higher.
		And the magnitude is such that it's going to cause shifts in the jet stream.
		So we're going to see incredible amounts of moisture that's going to come to the deserts of the United States.
		You know, California, Nevada, you're going to see that.
		Arizona.
		Massive amounts of water is going to be dumped there.
		Also, Mississippi again, down in Missouri, throughout the southern states.
		So we're going to see all that water as that jet stream changes and the currents that are driving and change.
		As flares continue to occur, if many of these regions happen to be pointed in the right direction, or perhaps it's the wrong direction, and the Earth takes some major hits, these hits are going to not only disrupt electrical, I mean everybody's worried about Y2K, but the grid is what we really should be worried about.
		And that's what I see happening.
		So, you know, in the United States, tornadoes, hailstorms, I mean, size of softballs, I mean, massive amounts of damage from hail.
		And then the winds that will pick up.
		Not only tornadoes, but just very strong gusts of winds.
		We're going to see winds that are going to hit hurricane velocity.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Gee, Wiz, you're now talking to the proud new owner of a 100-foot steel tower above his head.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Winds, huh?
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, but I'm sure you put it up so it's good for at least 150 miles an hour.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		I did.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I did indeed.
		But I'm a little concerned.
		Now, I kind of know where you're going here.
		I know a little bit about this, Gordon.
		As we get hit with flares or ejecta from the sun, we are sensibly protected by our magnetic field.
		But there have been disturbing reports of fluctuations in the magnetic field lately.
		And I've had some people say we could get hit with such a big one that the Earth's magnetic field would somehow not quite protect us from it.
		And the results of that would be quite catastrophic.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		It could be the trigger for a magnetic pole shift.
		In fact, our visions have indicated that that's exactly what will happen, not necessarily this year, though it may begin in some small level this year.
		When those flares hit, and the magnetosphere just bulges out, and when it couples into the Earth, and we get what we know is auroras, aurora borealisis, when we couple that kind of energy in, it creates not only disturbances electrically at the poles, but that same disturbance becomes part of the electrical system of the Earth and the magnetic field of the Earth.
		Now, one thing that is going on now and has been going on for some time is that the strength of the Earth's magnetic field has been declining, and it's been declining steadily.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That's what I've heard.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Now, we know in the past, due to these core sample tests that they took All around the world, they knew that just before the poles shifted their position, the magnetic poles now shifted their position, that the magnetic field dropped.
		And so we're in that cycle as well.
		So this is just like another thing that we can look at to say what kind of things are really going on that may have some past credibility.
		We studied the past scientifically so that we can then extrapolate the future.
		And so I believe that we're going to have some whopper flares, and before the Y2K hits, the flares will have already hit.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		If there should be a virtual cessation for a period of time of the Earth's magnetic field, which could occur and many people are saying May, and we were to get hit by a large flare, that would do the trick, wouldn't it?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		In other words, it could be.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		A way of looking at it is, remember those little Scotty dogs, one black, one white magnets that you used to put on your refrigerator?
		Absolutely.
		And if you took the two Scotty dogs and you pushed them together, they repelled each other, and if you turned it around, they would attract each other.
		They're standard magnets that you play with.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Sure.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		And it's a really good experiment for people to do, to go in some kind of a hobby shop or a radio shack or someplace to pick up some magnets and just kind of play with them.
		Because when you have it in your hand and you see what it does, you then can have an understanding that the Earth is just this big, huge magnet.
		And as a result of that, you can clearly see that there's a point where if it's not in balance or in harmony, then it's susceptible to shifting.
		That flare, when it does occur, I believe, will be the trigger.
		And it will flip the magnetic field.
		I don't see a complete reversal.
		I describe it in some detail again in my book, but basically what I say is that I see the magnetic field shifting towards the west.
		Not all magnetic shifts, pole shifts, have been 180 degrees.
		There have been various amounts.
		The ones that I see go in six or seven degree increments to the west or towards the Pacific Ocean, for example.
		It was referenced looking at the United States and Canada being at 12 o'clock.
		It moves to the west six to seven degrees three different times before it stabilizes itself.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh my Gordon, we've had that occur already.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		If we went through a shift, a partial shift, the kind you described a little while ago, what would happen to us?
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Even a permanent shift of a few degrees would be catastrophic.
		What happens, we shift all the elements of the Earth.
		It would create the steering winds of the planet would shift very abruptly.
		If it was seven degrees, like I see happening three times, or a total of 27 degrees, that would be significant enough so that the weather of the entire planet would change, and it would happen almost instantly.
		The first thing that would happen is that the shift would occur.
		Obviously, electrical devices are going to have, you know, the grid is going to have a problem, especially if it was triggered by a solar flare.
unidentified		That was the cause of it.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Immediately, high and low pressure points of the planet change, and winds would start probably within minutes and build in force.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		And so we would see winds two, three, four hundred miles an hour that would move at different places on the planet.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I lived on one, and they'd build flat concrete houses because of the winds.
		300 or 400 miles an hour wind, Gordon, would well, I've seen typhoons actually flatten islands completely and take every structure off, poof, gone like it doesn't exist.
		Three to four hundred miles an hour, there wouldn't be anything left.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Even more difficult is since our planet is a majority of water, we're going to see water being pushed everywhere.
		So water movement would be incredible.
		We would see tsunamis that could reach Empire State building kind of heights and beyond.
		Somewhere that energy has got to be dissipated.
		If we look at it as an energy being released, it's like the magnetic shift is like letting off lots of nuclear bombs, and that energy is going to spread out and it's going to take up many tons of stuff.
		I move into different portions.
		So the planet itself is always trying to seek a balance.
		And the most probable scenario would be is that such a shift, of course, is going to move the plate tectonic system of the planet.
		So then you're going to have that energy moving.
		We today, scientifically, do not know what creates the magnetic field in the Earth.
		I'm sorry?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That's true.
		You're right.
		We don't know.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		It's one of those mysteries, you know, and you go back and look at textbooks, the things you learned in college, and it just isn't true.
		I mean, these are theories, and there's two or three different theories that are out there.
		I've shared my theory in my book of what I think it is, and that's that the Earth itself has boundaries or layers.
		It's almost like a solid state device.
		It's the only way I could describe it.
		And it's these boundaries that indeed creates it as the result of an electrical connection between the Sun and the Earth.
		That's rotation.
		I don't believe the rotation is actually created in the field.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		In other words, as we go around the Sun, the Earth is sort of like a motor.
		You could think of it like a motor.
		And there is energy generated within the Earth itself as a matter of this rotation.
		Is that fair?
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		I think in part it's fair, yes.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		The Sun, because of its mass and its dynamics, it has poles too, and it's going through its own pole shift, I think, currently right now.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You bet.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		And that energy comes to the Earth.
		We're more familiar with it as sunlight, and so we see that, and we may know a little bit about cosmic rays and things of this nature.
		But what is not understood is that the Earth receives that energy, and then it sends it back.
		It's sinusoidal in form.
		It's a wave that comes to the Earth and goes back and forth.
		And it's not only heat and light, it's gravity and magnetism and color and sound.
		I mean, there's seven layers or bands or rays that's exchanging between the sun and the earth.
		So anything that goes on in the sun is going to go on in the earth.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Makes sense.
		What do you know, or what can you tell us, about what you believe to be the makeup of the inner earth itself?
		There's much argument about that, and we've talked about it before, but it bears touching on.
		In other words, what really is down going toward the core of the Earth?
		Can you draw a picture of that?
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Again, it's one of those things that scientifically we do not know.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That's right.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		And so the only thing that we do know is there's a lot of research being done by sending various waves to the Earth.
		And by doing that, we know some things.
		We can speculate that the Earth core moves at a different speed, which is one of the predictions I had made years ago that just was proven out last year, that it moves at a different speed than the outer crust.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I remember that prediction.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		What I see, and again what I describe in my book, is that there's an incredible amount of heat that's generated.
		I mean, the heat is hot enough to melt rock.
		But in my visions and discussions with my guides, as we get closer to the core of the Earth, some theories are that it's a solid iron core, and that's what is our magnetism.
		That's not what I see at all.
		What I see is a plasma.
		It's like this energy, and it's only can describe it as an energy, but the word that my guide said is it's a plasma.
		It's under incredible pressure from the heat because heat wants to escape out of the thing.
		The Earth is cooling.
		It's slowly cooling, very slowly cooling, but it gets rejuvenated because of the sun's energy that comes to us.
		So it's constantly being rejuvenated, but over billions of years, we could say the Earth is slowly cooling.
		And the outer crust is more solid than the inner crust.
		If your question was, is there a hollow core Earth theory, is that true?
		Not by my visions.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So you envision a plasma at the center.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		A plasma at the center.
		A high-intensity plasma.
		And that as you move out from the center core of the Earth, we have these layers.
		Scientifically, I think they've identified what they believe to be five, six, or seven.
		I see seven of these main layers, but I see 49 total layers as I go from the core out.
		And each of these layers has a different polarity.
		So it's like a series of magnets, north-south, north-south, north-south, and so forth.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Engine.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		An engine.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Virtually a generator.
		Actually, a generator, really.
		And of course, engines are generators, or motors are generators.
		I should have said motor, really.
		And that's what we are as a giant kind of motor, I guess.
		I remember you're saying that you thought there had been a shift of magma or plasma.
		I'm not sure which.
		I'll ask you now.
		That that shift had occurred, was going to occur.
		Is it a very tiny shift with giant results for us or what?
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		The shift, I believe, was significant.
		One of the long-standing predictions for cataclysmic events on the Earth that Casey published was that when certain volcanoes became active, and he talked about Italy being coming active, and he also talked about Pele very specifically and Martinique.
		He talked about those.
		He says if either of those become active, then mega-earth changes would occur.
		And then he said something to the effect that somehow they were in harmony together.
		He passed over in 1945, so we didn't have the ability to go back and ask him what he meant or if he could update that.
		Because since he said that, there has been activity in Italy, of course, many times.
		During the war, there was significant activity such that they bombed the volcano to keep the smoke out so the bombers could get to their missions.
		What I see is an actual passageway, if you will, or conduit that goes between South America, the Caribbean, it's like a Y there, all the way under the Atlantic Ocean and then up where Italy is, in particular Aetna and Vesuvius.
		So if you can see like an underground river of magma flowing between those two places, my prediction was that I think things had changed since Casey's time, and I felt that if there was ever any significant activity in the Caribbean,
		and at the same time that there was activity at Aetna, if they both simultaneously became active, very active, then that was kind of a key to me that that prediction about the underground magma connection was true and that we were getting real close.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Music This is the end of side one.
		stop the tape, flip it over, rewind, and begin again.
		Now, when you have visions, I thought you described them so well once on the program as three television screens, two being sort of black and white or weak color, and one being very contrasty and brighter and more likely than the other.
		Any of the scenarios were possible, but increasingly this one screen would be more dominant and the obvious future that we were going to have, kind of like three little movies running on three screens, but one of them becoming more and more clear and bright and likely.
		Is that fair?
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		I couldn't have said it better.
		That's exactly as I see it.
		Usually before I see those three screens, I start having a series of dreams.
		Each night I have at least five or six that I can recall.
		And then in the morning when I get up, I take notes about the ones that I realize that are just about my life and my health, what I need to be doing, and ones that relate to the earth and things that I need to pay attention to.
		And if I don't pay attention, the dream will repeat itself until I finally do.
		Now, once I do, once I say, okay, there's something here, then I'll see these three images.
		It's like going to an electronics TV showroom where they have all these TVs playing, except that there are three of them.
		And I can look at it one day, and then I can go back a month later and call up that same image.
		Once I see the image, it's like a database.
		It's locked in here.
		I can always recall it instantly.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		What information do you actually get?
		Do you see the disasters as if from space here on Earth?
		How does the information appear to you?
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		It has various ways.
		In the beginning, it was from space, looking back, and then seeing it as a distance, so I get the overall picture.
		And then future visions would show me a little closer.
		I might be 100 miles instead of 10,000 miles out.
		So that would be like the first go-rounds.
		And then later, when I started seeing these movies, it would just depend on how much time I wanted to spend.
		If I stay at it too long, when the headaches come, and then I lose everything.
		And then I'm using it in bed for a day or two.
		So I've had to learn how to pace myself.
		So when these visions start, I very quickly look for key things.
		Sometimes the visions move very fast.
		It's like watching a movie that's running at high speed.
		And then I look for elements like the place on the planet it might be, the time of season, you know, the leaves on the trees.
		Is it a warm climate?
		Is it a cold climate?
		Sometimes I'll even see a newspaper.
		That's what happened with Northridge.
		I knew, you know, I saw the newspaper, I saw the month of the newspaper, and I knew the month and the year it would happen.
		On rare occasions, the newspaper will stay for a second or two and I can actually get the actual day.
		That's a rarity.
		Usually I get the month, and I can see the year and the month of it.
		And some of the predictions that I published this year, I received in 83, so I had to wait all these years for these things to unfold.
		Sometimes they change.
		It's like the three images.
		I can look at the image, see these three screens, and say, wow, it looks like this is really going to happen.
		I can go back a year or two later, look at the same three screens, and they may change.
		The one that looked most probable, the bright colored one, may now be a muted color.
		And the middle screen, which would have been weaker, may be stronger.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		When I asked you how inevitable, if we go back to the screens that you see, when you began to look at the near-term changes, when they began to seem very near-term, as in beginning of July, how definitive were the pictures you were getting?
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		I was hoping you were going to ask that one tonight.
		Each December, I do a special meditation with family and sometimes some friends for predictions for the upcoming year.
		It's a very deep trance state.
		As you know, I'm limited to my own physical strength these days, and so I have to kind of take it easy.
		But at that time, one of the questions that was asked to me was, what did the screen show?
		And the response that came back from one of my guides was that it now unfolds.
		And that, you know, and then there were many other things in there that could be done, should be done, but always bringing it back to community.
		And basically, I see one screen now, and only one screen.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		One.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		One.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		And that screen shows the Earth pretty much as the map that you have in your possession there.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I do indeed.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		You have one by your hot tub, I think, if I remember correctly.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		How did you know that?
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		You told me, I think.
		Did I tell you that?
		Yeah.
		I can't take credit for a futurist thing of that.
		You told me.
		But it's really close to that.
		The variables in there will be the exact positioning of the coastlines.
		I mean, we will lose up to pretty close to a third of the United States' landmass.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Is this going to be, as the result, I mean, the weather, the wind, the tornadoes, the hurricanes, the earthquakes, all of this is occurring, but what you're describing would take probably a pole shift to accomplish.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, again, you're right on.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Let me just read a very short paragraph from Notes on the Cosmos in my book, which kind of summarizes your question, or the answer to your question.
unidentified		Sure.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		This is the paragraph that my dream teacher or my guide asked me when I was thinking about doing the Earth Changes report.
		When I was thinking about Earth changes at the time, I was seeing these visions and I wanted to know.
		I went to bed that night saying, why am I seeing these things?
		Here's a response.
		A magnetic pole shift is already underway.
		It began in the mid-1930s as a result of a shift in the position of the Earth's core relative to the pole star, which would be Polaris currently.
		Just as earthquakes and volcanoes are caused by electromagnetic forces, so are pole shifts.
		Great tectonic movement is only a reaction to these forces.
		What you have seen in your visions can aid the many.
		Others shall come forward now to increase awareness.
		So here's your hope, your friends, coming forward to you.
		Increase awareness of the coming procession and the solar cycles and the beginning of a new age.
		This is to be a millennium of peace and greater light for all.
		And yet, as has been indicated to you often, if community is born anew, if there is a spiritual ideal for each entity, if an intuition is followed by each, then indeed such a cataclysm as you have witnessed can be lessened.
		I responded in this, my guide.
		I said, well, can it be eliminated?
		Response was, all things are possible.
		You have witnessed the most probable future Earth.
		Whether it comes to pass depends upon the people.
		Warn the people now.
		So that passage from Notes in the Cosmos was the impotence for me to eventually release the information that I had had for years but was afraid to.
		And it is directly related to a pole shift, that this was saying had already begun and that it would manifest itself in very significant ways.
		In other words, we would literally know that this is going on.
		It is my belief through my phone conversations with people at JPL and NASA and other people who quietly call me who are working on the Soho project and others.
		From what they're telling me is that it is known that there are magnetic changes in the sun and the earth currently going on, and they're studying it.
		That's the response.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That's all they say.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Now currently, the magnetic field of the Earth has been in the constant state of decay.
		It's part of its, again, it's part of a normal cycle.
		Right.
		But usually what's happened in the past is when it's decayed, it is like getting ready to flip to a new direction.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Now, when you say flip, there's very little or no disagreement in the scientific community that pole reversals take place.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Is it your view that they take place when that final moment comes nearly instantaneously, or is it a longer period of time?
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		I think much of it depends upon the particular energies that play during a cycle.
		For example, about every 12,000 years we have some kind of a magnetic shift.
		So it's like the stresses are in place.
		How the Earth responds can vary.
		I mean, in the past, I think ice was responsible for a pole shift, not necessarily just a magnetic pole shift, but an actual geocentric shift.
		The beginnings of those, I believe, occurred in the 30s, and then I believe it occurred again in the late 80s, and I believe it occurred again in the mid-90s.
		So I think we've seen three very small shifts, little jolts, I would call them, and then a quiet time period, and now it's getting prepared to do, I think, its first jolt, which, again, will occur sometime within this three-year window.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And when this comes, there will be high winds.
		There will be volcanic action, I guess.
		There will be tectonic movement.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Correct.
		Tectonic movement, as I just read from our notes in the cosmos, is directed by magnetic forces.
		Electromagnetic forces is what is the driving force.
		And all of this in turn affects the basic elements, earth, air, water, fire.
		And when those things are put out of proportion in any fashion, any one of them, you then increase pressures and then tectonic plates move.
		And of course, anywhere in the world where there is stress, you get it.
		And of course, most of our populations are on coastal areas.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That's right.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		And so you're going to see it.
		Now, most people, at least in the United States, tend to think of these things are out on the West Coast.
		It's not going to bother me here in Texas, or they're not going to bother me here in New York.
		And yet, that's not at all what I'm seeing.
		I'm just seeing that it occurs first on the West Coast because it's the most stressed area.
		But it will affect the East Coast as well as other continents.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, you must have looked at your own situation, selfishly at least.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		New Hampshire.
		Yeah, I would like very much to tell you and your listeners that I made this conscious decision years ago as a result of what I saw.
		Unfortunately, as I stated in my book, that's not what happened.
		I had a series of dreams that showed me a map and told me to go up to this specific area.
		He didn't say why.
		He just said, you need to go to this area.
		And I didn't pay any attention to it.
		And then it just repeated itself.
		And finally, I drove up.
		And basically, I've always lived in a city.
		And a rural life was not something that was part of my plan.
		And my plan was to be on the water always.
		And so I came up here, I looked at it, and I said, no, this is not for me.
		This is way too isolated.
		And then it never stopped.
		The dreams were at least once, or it's not twice a week.
		So after about a year, we found that things in our lives had changed and we needed To move, and so I said, Well, this is a perfect opportunity to go back to the Gulf Coast of Florida and live.
		Even though I had that experience there, I still felt good in the sun and I enjoyed the salt water and I enjoyed sailing.
		I wanted to go back with my family.
		And doors just weren't open to me.
		And then finally, in desperation, we had sold our house.
		And in desperation, we went back up here and drove by a place.
		And all of a sudden, I found myself turning up this driveway, not knowing why.
		And the person came out, and I said, you know any land or property for sale?
		He says, yeah.
		He says, this place is.
		And so looking back with hindsight now, I could see the reasons why.
		This helped me learn about community, self-sufficiency, gardening.
		It led me to live the things that I would in the future be talking about.
		So instead of just talking about it, I actually live these things.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		When you and I did a show previously, you said you saw on the West Coast visions of shattered glass.
		You saw thousands or millions of refugees coming from California over the mountains.
		Does that vision remain the same?
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Yes, that's and even on a non-visual sense, if we just look at recent occurrences that have occurred in cities, we can see what happens when the ground shakes.
		You can get a building to sway if you've engineered it correctly, like in Japan and some of the new construction on the West Coast, that can take a force, you know, six, seven, or even an eight earthquake.
		Though the quakes I see are going to be 10, 12, 15 in the future.
		But when these buildings start swaying and you get winds that whip up to 200, 300 miles an hour, you're going to see these glass panes popping out.
		And I would see them in the streets, they would fill up the streets.
		They would bury cars and shattered glass.
		And then I saw caravans of cars and lights on at night heading over the desert, heading from California into what I called tent cities, established on the border of California and Nevada.
		And there were just streams of traffic on the highways and just tents set up by, you know, like the military was bringing in huge tents, you know, thousands of tents.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Is this likely to begin to occur with the first shift?
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
		Yeah.
		It'll occur.
		There'll be some major shaking quakes that will occur first.
		And more than likely, it will begin this summer.
		At least the quakes will begin this summer.
		The actual date of the shift, I'll have to wait until I get something that's more definitive.
		I just know the window of it.
		But I'm quite certain that we're going to see major quakes, things that are going to be greater than seven.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
		Here's a blatant question for you.
		Gordon, when will the West Coast go underwater?
		Will there be any warning?
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		The warnings have already been given.
		Before the water actually comes and the coastline gets changed, and California becomes what I called in my book, the Isles of California, about 150 of them.
		Before those happen, the major cities, San Francisco, LA and San Diego down in the Baja, those things get shaken literally to the point where it's like watching a movie, like Escape to LA or New York.
		It looks like that in my vision.
		So those things occur shortly before the water comes in.
		Water and inundations may actually occur in that line from Salt Lake to Bakersfield as well.
		I mean, we may see water being displaced as land masses shift before that.
		So the things is that the next quakes that are going to come are going to be big ones.
		The warning signs of the smaller ones, the ones that we predicted, such as Northridge and others, those have already occurred.
		So I totally expect now that the next ones will be the big ones.
		And by big ones, they're ones that their epicenters are right in the cities of L.A. and San Francisco and San Diego.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So that's the West Coast.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And that will occur first.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		It's a three-year window for these things to occur, 98 to 2001.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Then somebody asks, does Gordon foresee this danger for all of the Northeast?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		In other words, Boston as he does for New York?
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		The first one that I have seen is actually in the New York area, New York, Long Island, Connecticut.
		That's the first one that I've seen.
		It's a massive shift, and something is ruined for this summer in that area, whether it's the full release at that time or the warning.
		But I'm very concerned about that.
		But the East Coast has, like Boston, Boston and Philadelphia, or do people know about it, have had incredibly massive earthquakes in the past, 100 years ago, just like in New Madrid, you know.
		But the populations were very low then, and we weren't building our skyscrapers and homes on landfill.
		Things were different then, and even so, those were massive earthquakes back then, A-plus range.
		So we will see tectonic movement that will affect, you know, if we were to take a line, for example, and drew a line from New Brunswick and swung that line from New Brunswick down to, you know, somewhere around Augusta, Georgia, you know, just do a general line along that path.
		Along in that path, we're going to see a lot of land mass changes and water.
		Generally, if you're on the water or close to the water, you're at high risk.
		You just watch the hurricanes, and You can see that happening in floods, which are coming too very soon, by the way.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		What about our central land masses?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		What about the middle of the country?
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		The middle of the country fares fairly well.
		You know, Nebraska, Kansas, Oklahoma, most of Texas, New Mexico, the central portion, Montana, southern Canada, those do not change.
		I mean, they go through effects, but as far as massive land mass changes where you see land sinking and water levels rising, I don't see those in the air.
		I mean, I see Earth movements.
		You can't move a tectonic plate without shuttering the whole planet.
		And so, you know, when these things happen, you won't be able to stand wherever you are on this planet.
		You will fall to your knees when the shuttering is, it's a shuttering effect, even though the event may be affecting you 1,000 or 5,000 or 10,000 miles away.
		But the central portions do a lot better.
		And then there's a lot of portions in between where the new Mississippi will be and the east coast.
		There's a lot of area in there.
		You know, the easiest thing that I was able to do was to create a map of it.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, Carl, how big is that map?
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		The map is five feet by four feet.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Five feet, yeah, it's giant.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		And so many people have said, you know, why can't you just put it on an 8.5 by 11?
		Well, on the website, you know, you get an idea of what it is, and you can literally see the impact of what I'm talking about.
		But when you're talking about the world, it's very difficult because people really want to know where they are relative to the map.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Of course.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		And, you know, I took at least a period of five to six years before I ever considered.
		I had made maps for myself, but I never released it for years because, you know, first, people weren't ready to hear it.
		And second, is that part of me was in denial.
		You know, I was really hoping that this was just not going to happen, but somehow we were going to turn this around.
		And so, you know, part of me says I probably waited too long.
		The other part of me says the fact that I did it, you know, was probably the correct thing to do whenever I did it.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, I understand why you're torn.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		The Hawaiian Islands and Alaska, I always get berated for not asking you about those.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Of course, the Hawaiian Islands are born of volcanism.
		There's constant, it's one of the places around the world where you can actually watch islands being built and real estate increasing.
		So it's logical to assume that that is going to increase.
		I see most of those islands being severely inundated.
		And I think there will still be some areas at the high elevations that will survive.
		But most of them, the biggest problem I see is water movement.
		You know, when Krakatoa went off, it sent the tidal wave around the world several times, and the shock wave reverberated for, it seems like ever.
		And they talked about these mile-high waves that were generated from that one volcanic eruption.
		So here we've got changes in the West Coast, changes in Japan that I'm predicting will begin this year.
		And so that's going to create waves.
		So I think they're very high risk to wave motion.
		There are warnings, early warning systems in place to warn of a tidal wave.
		You could have advanced warnings of five hours, maybe even 10 hours in some cases.
		Unfortunately, I don't know where you would go except to the higher elevations.
		Higher ground.
		But I think everybody should, my suggestion is everybody should, wherever you are in the world, you should just think about what would you do if it happened tomorrow?
		What if a hurricane came?
		What if a major earthquake?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Where would you go?
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		What would you do?
		And plan that out accordingly.
		And that's what we've done.
		I have an emergency kit that I keep in my car.
		We've developed a very strong community here in our neighborhood for growing and water.
		And we can get off of everything and survive here for quite a while.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You know what, Gordon?
		I think that people are suddenly, and I bet you're getting it in your mail and your email too, all the communication that you get from people, thousands and tens or hundreds of thousands of people.
		The C-Crane Company sells this emergency radio with a light.
		All of a sudden, about three weeks ago, it went unaccountably crazy.
		I mean, when I say crazy, I mean totally beyond all reason and the ability of them to keep stock or even manufacture it at a fast enough rate.
		And people started ordering.
		Now, that tells me that people are, you know, even for the thicker folks out there, the less sensitive, I'll be kind, it's beginning to sink in.
		Intuitively.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		You cannot turn on, yes, you're right.
		Intuitively, more and more people are getting the message.
		But the other part of it is the real-world data, which is what I look at, and that is that you can't turn on television without seeing some kind of a disaster show that's based on real fact in the nightly news.
		I mean, 22 tornadoes in one 24-hour time period all around the country.
		That's unheard of.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I know.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		And so people now are saying, you know, wow, I've got to do something.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		And so those are the first.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Then there was the NBC piece the other night when they said that the weather appears to be permanently changing.
		And it's as though for a lot of America, Gordon, they don't believe it until Peter Jennings, Tom Brokaw, or one of the big guys says it.
		When they say it, then it's true for them.
unidentified		Well, it's now.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		It's not in 10 years or 5 years.
unidentified		It's now.
unidentified		It's now.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You have just heard what Gordon Michael Scallion has envisioned for our future.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		On tape two, you're going to find out what Major Ed Dames has to say about these upcoming Earth changes.
unidentified		Major Ed Dames
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Major Ed Dames This is part two of the new Millennium Special.
		Many of you out there are familiar with Major Ed Dames from my program, Coast to Coast AM.
		What Major Ed Dames has to say about future earth changes, you'll find very similar to what Gordon Michael Scallion said.
		Find out why people call him Dr. Doom.
		Several years ago, now, and a lot of time has passed, Ted Coppel's Nightline did a program that shocked the nation.
		They revealed the existence of a military remote viewing program to the nation in a 30-minute Nightline broadcast.
		And they said that for 20 years, the United States government had had in place a so-called remote viewing program and that we had spent millions of dollars on it.
		And that there had been a group of these remote viewers, and we'll try and explain the quick 101 version of remote viewing because I know we have new listeners in a moment.
		And that they were discontinuing that program and announcing it, making the fact that we had, as a government, been doing this for 20 years, now public.
		It was, to say the least, a shocking revelation.
		Since that time, we have had many opportunities to interview many remote viewers.
		One of the most controversial, without question, is a man that was dubbed during that time Dr. Doom.
		His name is Ed Dames, retired now, Major Ed Dames, who started a company called SciTech in the private sector in order to take what he had learned in the military, modify it to some degree, and what he does is called Technical Remote Viewing.
		From the Hawaiian Islands, here is Major Ed Dames.
		Ed, hello.
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		It's a pleasure to be back, Art.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Before we launch into very much about the operational side of either the military program or what you're doing now, we should do, I know, the painful thing for you because you've done it so many times, but just the very short version of what technical remote viewing is.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		For those who might be tuning in tonight for the first time, they're going, what the hell is remote viewing?
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		In essence, I'll start by using a term that you've used before.
		A remote viewer is a trained psychic, but trained to the degree that the data that is produced about a target, a target being a remotely placed person, place, a thing, or an event, the information that's produced about that target is extremely accurate and consistent.
		So consistent and accurate that we and the Department of Defense were able to use such psychic data in support of military operations where when we went, for instance, to natural psychics, we could not use that information because the natural psychic, number one, was not consistent in their data.
		And number two, the natural psychic did not know when they crossed the line into imagination.
		So that the information that they were writing down or talking about or sketching was no longer connected with the target.
		The signal had crossed over back into the middle.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So in other words, in a way, the government was saying, we believe in psychic ability, but the government always wants, of course, to be able to control and do science, which is being able to repeat things again and again and again.
		They want a regimen.
		That is our military.
		I was in the Air Force.
		Everything is regimented, and so they regimented psychic ability.
		I guess you could put it that way, couldn't you?
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		It had to be validated.
		The Secretary of the Army at the time, John O. Marsh, was visionary enough to allow seed money to be put into this program to the tune of millions of dollars.
		But that was provisional to the point where we had to be able to validate the usefulness and the accuracy of these methods in military operations before real money would be put forward.
		So the $20 million that you hear thrown around, part of that $20 million that funded the program was, of course, research.
		Only when we demonstrated that it was a militarily effective tool that could be used to support military operations, only then did the regular monies from Congress was allocated.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I see.
unidentified		So the tax dollars didn't.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Really, the first money was seed money.
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		The first money was research money.
		Research money can be thrown at just about anything, but only for a limited period of time.
		And unless you validate, in terms of the Department of Defense, unless you validate something as a weapon or a defense system or an intelligence collection system, the usefulness of that, you're not going to get any more money.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It's a very good point, Ed.
		And you know, the fact that it went on for 20 years, I could understand that it would go on for a year or two or three or four even.
		But if there were no results worthy being yielded, they absolutely would not have kept going 20 years, in my opinion.
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		No.
		No, it was, well, there was another reason it lasted so long.
		The unit was so close hold that very, very few people in the government knew of its existence.
		I dare say that if that had not been the case, we would not have lasted as long.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, here's a point.
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		We would have been cut off the knees.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, exactly.
		But frequently people say, look, there can't be ETs.
		There can't be UFOs.
		The government is incapable of keeping secrets.
		That's baloney.
		They are capable of keeping secrets.
		They kept the remote viewing secret for 20 years.
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		Well, no, it leaked out.
		It did leak out.
		In fact, in my business, we knew that the general rule of thumb art was that a secret could be kept for no longer than eight years.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Eight years.
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
		That was a general rule of thumb.
		Now, that's been exceeded.
		I mean, there have been programs that many countries have had.
		China is a good example.
		They can keep a lid on something for decades.
		But in America, before Internet days, it was generally eight years.
		One of the best examples was the stealth program.
		That was effectively protected by this country and the U.S. Air Force.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		The Manhattan Project.
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		Well, the Manhattan Project, that was secrecy beyond, I think, anything.
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		Very few programs had that kind of secrecy.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		But the fact that plutonium was given to children and pregnant women, that was kept secret.
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		Those were the dark ages of America, the Joe McCarthy days.
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		Those were America's dark ages, for sure.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And the dark days are over?
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		Generally speaking, they're over.
		There's a lot of oversight.
		And I'll tell you why, because the press is so effective.
		The press is so effective in this country that they can generally penetrate just about anything.
		But if you try to keep a secret from the American press, for sure.
unidentified		Hear, here.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Hear, here.
		But said again, remote viewing is the ability of somebody to administer to another person, the remote viewer, a number, a simple number, a series of numbers or whatever.
		And the remote viewer would then, for example, be able to locate a gas canister in Iraq or any number of other things.
		Remote viewing is in a realm that defies or eclipses time as we understand it.
		You can look into the future.
		You can look into the past.
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		It's operating in the fifth dimension.
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		Fourth dimension being time, fifth dimension being mind.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Precisely.
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		So we are thinking in terms of a universal mind where all patterns of information are stored.
		So in that arena, the universal mind is remembering the future as well as remembering the past.
		All the information is present there, accessible.
		So it becomes a matter of turning one's unconscious attention towards one of those infinite patterns of information.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		When you get a student, Ed, in the days that you actually had classes going on, how did you train the imagination?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		How do you train the imagination out of a person's report?
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		It's part of the process that there's about 400 steps to learning this process, just like cooking a pineapple upside-down cake in a kitchen.
		You just have to go through one step after another.
		If you do all those steps correctly, you have a fine cake at the end of a couple of hours.
unidentified		That's right.
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		Remote viewing is the discovery, the real discovery of remote viewing is how the unconscious part of ourselves communicates these very detailed bits of information to conscious awareness without this overlay of imagination.
		Those steps, that process was the breakthrough discovery.
		That's been refined in SciTech to be able to use remote viewing as not only an information collection process, but a problem-solving process as well.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		One of the toughest things that it seems to me after interviewing you so many times, Ed, the toughest things for you to do with respect to anything that you say is going to happen or that you have seen coming is specific timelines.
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		That's correct.
		As a predictive tool, as a predictive tool, remote viewing is difficult.
		We can't nail time down.
		The best that we can do in terms of a future event is to say the next event will be this.
		But we can't pinpoint the next where we are in time.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		How do you do timelines at all?
		Even rough timelines?
		How do you come up with them?
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		We look at current states of affairs worldwide on the globe, and we see how close we are juxtaposed to our information.
		The event that's been described in the information, a good example would be Korea.
		It's been about two years now, two and a half years, since we were sure that the next use of a nuclear weapon would be Korea.
		So looking ahead, we didn't really have a clear idea about how long that would be.
		We knew it would happen before the solar kill shot because we can place events, bracket them in time, and juxtapose them one before another.
		So we knew that that would be before the solar event.
		But we didn't know how far down the road the solar kill shot would be.
		So we didn't have a standard for our timeline.
		It's very difficult to do that.
		Now you can see that the situation in Korea is becoming very hairy, very fast, and it's a fait accompli that something is going to give in Korea very fast.
		So now we get a better idea of when this event might occur.
		That's why we're watching the situation so closely and we're getting more details because we're closer on the horizon to finally, to the actual event.
		So when we build remote viewing itself, there are other things, caveats here that we have to be careful of.
		In technical remote viewing, you're sitting at a table, you have pen and paper in hand, in a very attentive state, going through a set of rigorous attention management techniques, and you're building up on your canvas on these pieces of paper.
		You're moving into the target.
		Actually, you're bringing it into your own conscious awareness in a very gross way, from the gross to the general to the specific to the detailed description and sketches of the target.
		This takes at least 45 minutes and a series of remote viewing sessions.
		So it's like building up the target like pieces of a jigsaw puzzle.
		We know, and we knew in the laboratory when we made these mistakes, people are still making these mistakes, of getting caught up in the drama of the target.
		If there's a murder going on that you're looking at, it could be in the past, could be at present time, if there's a battle going on.
		If you cross a 50% line where 50% of your awareness is now at the remote target instead of in the room where you are jotting down all this information and following these rigorous taught protocols, if you cross that line, the flow of information will stop.
		Remote viewing is not an experience, it's an information collection tool.
		So, for instance, what good would it do, let's say your mother had a breast tumor, what good would it do if remote viewing were an experience where you finally experience your mother's breast tumor?
		As opposed to where is the position in the breast, how large is it?
		What's the makeup of the cells?
		Is it benign or malign?
		Those kinds of things.
		We don't want to stop the flow of information.
		So if we get caught up in the drama, it becomes an oh wow experience, which we can do, by the way.
		But technical remote viewing precludes that from happening.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Ed, you on my program are one of the most loved and hated guests that I have.
		And a large segment of the people out there love it.
		And a large segment of the people out there hate it.
		Actually, hate you.
		And you bring that on.
		I mean, if you read in the newsgroups and you read the faxes and email that people send, when somebody does not like you, there's very little neutral about Ed Dames.
		You either like him or you hate him.
		I'm giving you an honest assessment of the responses I get from my listeners.
		I mean, there are people out there who just hate your guts and mine too, by the way.
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		I'm very much aware of that, Arnie.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		What do you think?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		What is it about you or what you say or what you do that brings out this vitriolic side of people?
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		Whether or not people feel that what my company's conclusions are factual, truthful, or not, what we're doing is telling them something they do not want to hear.
		And that was my experience in the military, too.
		It was my experience at the Department of Defense level, National Intelligence Agency level, and in the White House.
		Don't shoot the messenger, but this is the way it is.
		I'm going to continue that, too.
		In fact, I'll be talking about something like that tonight.
		It will be very similar to the things I've talked about in the past.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That is what they do.
		They shoot the messenger.
		And they shoot me that way all the time.
		I deal in not just what you have, but what a lot of my other guests have.
		And it's like they love to hate me.
		I get these vitriolic ramblings against what I do, despite the fact that I say constantly on the air, I present this to you as an audience, an adult audience.
		You can accept it as entertainment.
		You can accept it as information you believe.
		You can say, gosh, what a bunch of BS.
		You can do whatever you want with it.
		I just present it.
		But nevertheless, they take their high-powered, metaphorically, of course, rifles and put constant bullets through my head for what I do.
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		And yet those individuals are free to turn that dial or turn the radio off.
		Because they love to hate you.
		And me.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That may be.
		I think that's exactly right.
		They love to hate us.
		All right.
		Well, now that everybody, I think, pretty well knows you in the first place and we have explained what remote viewing is, I think when I reflect on the years that you've been doing programs with me, your most accurate work seems to have been in the area of the environment.
		I mean, that's my own personal view.
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		There's a reason for that, and that is because, you know, what we know in my business is that unconscious, the unconscious part of ourselves, of our own mind, is our best friend.
		It tries to keep you alive.
		And if you're too busy in the daytime to pay heed to it, that little tiny signal, that little tiny voice, it'll get you at night during dreams.
		You'll have premonitions about disasters or something like that.
		These are big spikes in time.
		These are these kinds of things, the spike that tells you don't be here because something is going to happen or don't be involved in this city at this time because there'll be an explosion.
		It's our best friend.
		It tries to keep you alive.
		So when you have a catastrophe that takes a lot of lives or affects a lot of people, those are very big spikes that stand up through the background clutter, the background noise of day-to-day living.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And of course, the environment is a very, very big thing that can take many lives.
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		It's going to take many lives indeed, yes.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Now, I just don't even know what to say about the weather.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You years ago talked about the changes in the weather.
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		There's nothing more to say as far as I'm concerned.
		Two and a half years ago, I tried to warn listeners on your program as well as in written reports to institutions and institutes that we are not going to shortly, we're not in North America, going to be able to grow crops the way we used to grow them.
		There will be no seasons.
		There will be no distinction between seasons.
		And it's going, some parts will be a no-man's land.
		We're going to have to move crops into sealed environments.
		And these environments will become templates.
		And humans will begin to migrate into them and they'll grow.
		But the technology must mature for this to be effective.
		We've got to start doing this now.
		Otherwise, many people will lose their lives.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You also said the jet stream would come down onto the deck.
		And people chuckled.
		And I've heard, I don't know how many weathermen say the jet stream actually came down and touched the ground.
		And that accounts for these straight-line winds that destroyed such and such.
		I mean, just again and again and again, you were dead flat right about that.
		And here in Salt Lake City, a tornado ed, a tornado, an F2 tornado touched down in the center of Salt Lake City, Utah, killed one person, injured dozens of people, and did an extensive amount of property damage.
		It was the damnedest thing anybody ever saw.
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		Well, and I mentioned before the tornado season that the mother of all tornadoes was coming.
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		And you saw that hit.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That's right.
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		I have to warn you again: there's going to be more of those, and in places that have never experienced tornadoes before.
		So, when, for instance, I warned people in the Denver area about Rocky Flats, there's no more nuclear material, waste material stored in Rocky Flats, but there's still a very big problem.
		The top layer of the soil around Rocky Flats, down to about a centimeter or so, is contaminated.
		So, if a high wind or a tornado rolls across that land, it's going to be fallout city for Denver.
		It's tens of times.
		Yeah, a tornado would obviously pick up a great deal of all the contaminants and drop them on populated areas.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I wonder if they've thought about that.
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		I don't think anyone has ever expected the Rocky Flats area to have a tornado, but things are changing rapidly as we go.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Nobody really ever expected one in the middle of Salt Lake City either.
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		And in terms of sanctuaries and survival information, the other thing that my company has been trying to warn people about is water.
		If you are not near a large source of fresh water, you are in trouble, and increasingly so.
		That is why I've been directing people towards the western part of Glacier National Park.
		We have that huge, some of the cleanest water in North America is there, and that's one of the few places in the continental United States that's going to be safe because it has a lot of water.
		Water supplies are dwindling.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That certainly would make sense.
		But then in the Northeast, we have drought emergencies now in almost every northeastern corridor state.
		I believe all of them now.
		And the southeast is a disaster.
		Here in the west, Ed, the southwest, where I live, I'm telling you something is really dramatically wrong.
		Every day, my wife and I have been commenting on it.
		We moved here about seven years ago to this house, and on the day we moved, it was 117 degrees.
		Now, that's normal for out here in July going into August.
		It's not getting above 90 during the day now, and it's going down to 60 at night, Ed.
		Something's really wrong.
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		Well, again, water.
		The question is, got water?
		Because that is the key right there.
		You can stockpile all the food that you want and all the rifles and ammunition that you choose.
		But if you are not near a source of plentiful fresh water, you are in trouble.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		No, that surely does make sense.
		The question, I guess, is that most people would want to know.
		I mean, at this point, Ed, most people agree we are in the middle of a weather change that people have tried to explain in various ways, El Niño, La Niña, all the rest of it.
		But it's more serious than that, and I think most people now know that.
		The question is, how much worse is it going to get?
		That's what I think most people would want to know.
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		It's going to reach a point where people will begin migrating from populated areas.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Out of the cities.
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		Out of the cities, yeah.
		This is a denouement here.
		And it's going to result in disintegration of a lot of social systems because of no water.
		Even food.
		Look what will happen first, though.
		Food prices will rise.
		There will be crops that will not be available for cattle.
		So cattle will die.
		And then food will be controlled by governments, local at first, civil governments.
		And then after that, there may not be enough food to eat.
		So people may, socially, many things will change.
		People will begin to starve.
		We're a very spoiled society, us Americans, and that's about the change.
		We're going to experience some pain.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		No, it is true.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Food has been always extremely plentiful here.
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		Americans are water.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, Americans don't really understand what it's like not to be able to get food.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It's an impossible concept because we have never experienced it, really never.
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		No, we've grown very complacent about a number of things, and that's going to change.
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		It's changing right now in those parched areas of the East.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, yeah, look, in parts of the Orient, North Korea, they are starving to death.
		There has been reported cannibalism.
		In North Korea, it's horrible.
		Absolutely horrible.
		So it doesn't take a great change in our climate to produce a dramatic change in the ability to grow food, does it?
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		No.
		In fact, when you think about it, food that's subject to the vicissitudes of climate and weather these days, it's a crapshoot.
		It's like playing Russian roulette with food.
		It's got to be done a different way.
		And a different way has to be a hermetically sealed or a controlled, environmentally controlled environment.
		Our company in the past has produced reports to this effect and delivered them to some very high-powered think tanks.
		And there are certain individuals and wealthy people who have taken action and are doing this for themselves.
		But it must be done at the community and township levels, minimally, in order to have sustained food.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Ed, I had a very, very well-renowned psychic on the air, Sylvia Brown.
		And she said a couple of things that really caught my attention.
		She said, number one, in 50 years, people will be living in domed cities.
		And this will be as a result of the environment.
		The second thing she said was, she was on the Montel Williams show, and he had her looking ahead 20 years, 50, 70 years.
		And finally, he had her look out as far as the year 2100, and she saw absolutely nothing.
		Now, that reminded me of the time you talked of the discontinuity, what you called at that time, the discontinuity, a kind of a barrier past which you couldn't see.
		And she has a barrier past which she cannot see.
		She's not A remote viewer, but she is certainly a natural psychic.
gordon michael scallion ▲ ● ▼		Any reaction to that?
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		Well, I think our company has to stand by the work that we've done with regard to the sun.
		There is going to be a sunburst.
		Something is going to happen to the sun, a major coronal mass ejection that will plasma that will be delivered up to Earth, right down almost down to the deck on Earth's surface.
		And that will result in one of the largest catastrophes probably in recorded history.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Here's a fact from Dave in Wisconsin.
		He says, solar flare activity is supposed to increase dramatically according to scientists in the first few weeks of next year.
		Please ask Ed if this is what he's been predicting for the last few years.
		In other words, death and destruction to some portion of the planet and its inhabitants due to the sun.
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		This is what we know.
		We know that people look up and the next minute later, something hits them.
		That's all that we know.
		And this something is attributable to the sun's activity.
		I'm not a solar physicist, so I don't know if that's plasma, x-rays, or whatever, but it's something that can be seen in the sky.
		It's an effect or an epiphenomenon as a result of solar action that actually produces an effect in the sky.
		So you can see it coming.
		You can't get out of the way, but you can see this coming, and we know that it's produced by the sun.
		How many of these kinds of kill shots are there?
		We don't know.
		But the sun is going to result in a massive loss of life, even far more than the general weather conditions will produce.
		And in many parts of the world, it's much worse than we can.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So you stand by the kill shot or kill shots prediction.
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		That's correct.
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		Our sun is going to result in the largest loss of human lives that we have seen as remote viewers in the past or in the future.
unidentified		Thank you.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		This is the end of side one.
unidentified		Stop the tape, flip it over, rewind, and begin again.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		The End Scientists know that our magnetic field here on Earth has been weakening.
		They can actually measure it.
		They are measuring it.
		That's occurring.
		Gordon Michael Scowion the other night, and others, I might add, and now you, are suggesting the possibility of an event of a magnitude that would cause a polar shift.
		Is that what we're talking about here?
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		When you talk about polar shift, this term that has been so often used over the decades, the only thing that we as remote viewers, professional remote viewers At SciTech, have ever construed as a polar shift is a magnetic pole shift.
		We're not certain that there's a shift in the axis of the Earth.
		We don't know that.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, no, no, no.
		Just a magnetic shift.
		What was north becoming south or some gradient thereof?
		Magnetically.
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		We think that there's going to be...
		The iron does not seem to be distributed equally.
		There seems to be a big glob that all of a sudden moves.
		And then that is what causes, in our minds, this magnetic shift.
		And then, of course, there's a lot of movement on the surface.
		The coefficient of friction between the Earth's mantle and the crust is different.
		And then there's a different coefficient of friction between the crust and the atmosphere.
		And so there's a time delay.
		There's a time lag.
		But this eventuates in, when it hits the atmosphere, in very high winds, very high winds indeed, and of course a lot of tidal action as well.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Did you hear portions at least of the Gordon Michael Scallion show the other night.
unidentified		I did.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		When he was describing the realm in which he is able to view events in the future, it sounded an awful lot to me like descriptions you have given to me of what you do in the past on these shows.
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		I think that Mr. Scallion's descriptions are more connected with visuals, with actual health and visions, and I think they're visuals.
		Where our work, visuals, are just one very small aspect of what we do.
		We download very accurately and rigorously ideas.
		And sometimes those ideas trigger a visual memory, but many times they don't.
		They simply become ideas that are expressed in terms of words.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes, but is it not communication probably from the same realm?
unidentified		I would...
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		My guess is yes.
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		Also, I'd like to mention that since the last time we talked, Father Malachi Martin has passed away, and that was a great deal.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That was very hard...
		very, very hard for me, Ed.
		Father Malachi Martin and I had a number of private conversations, aside from what we did on the air.
		And so I guess I can't talk about them.
		But he did say something on the air about the third secret ephemera that will always be with me.
		And that was, he said, Art, if you could imagine the very worst that mankind could face, it's worse than that.
		And he had read the third secret ephemera.
		And I always kind of wondered if there was a parallel to what you saw.
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		The best way we could describe it in terms of remote viewing the third secret is the opening of what in Revelation is called the Sixth Seal.
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		You read that, and you'll see how bad can be.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And you believe that the Sixth Seal has been opened?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes.
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		Let's see.
		Let me start in on this.
		Essentially, the revelation at Fatima, beginning in 1917, was three parts, two parts of which the Catholic Church made public eventually.
		The third part, also called the third secret of Fatima, they did not.
		Even though the apparition, which was judged to be a miracle by the Catholic Church, a bonafide miracle, even though the apparition that generated the original information requested through one of the girls who, and I can't remember the names, requested that this third part be made public no later than 1960.
		And it was not by the Catholic Church.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		According to Father Martin, the popes who have been in place have read it and individually have decided not to release it, going against the advice from the operation itself for whatever reason.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I presume you know why.
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		Well, I do now.
		At first, I thought it was rather arrogant, and that, you know, why would that information be withheld?
		I'm sure it generated a great deal of anger on the part of many, many of the faithful.
		Why should they keep information from the public?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes, why?
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		Which was one of the reasons I accepted the task, why I chose this task.
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		Why would they hold back God's word as if the church thought it knew best?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Didn't you approach this with some trepidation, though?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You know, one of those things of, do I really want to know this?
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		No, I didn't.
		I approached it with the same verve and enthusiasm as I did with most projects.
		However, I've changed my tune now that we've completed it.
		In fact, it's changed my life permanently.
		The third part of the Revelation, lowercase R, the Fatimid Revelation, is an announcement.
		It's an announcement that heralds events described in the Revelation with a capital R. That's why the Catholic Church deemed that it was necessary to comment on it because it would only have been saying what had already been said by a higher authority.
		That is, it would only have been a commentary on the Word of God.
		And I'm going to get real specific here.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		But you're saying the third secret is revelations.
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		I'm saying that the third secret is indeed what is the end time prophecies themselves, the beginning of the end-time prophecies, specifically the heralding of events connected with the opening of the sixth seal.
		In other words, the scroll, you know, in Daniel chapter 10, 11, Gabriel, the angel, chose Daniel the prophecies that concern the last generation.
		These are the end-time prophecies contained in a sealed scroll of Revelations.
		That scroll has been unsealed.
		And that third part of Fatima essentially says that the scroll has been unsealed, and the next up is the sixth seal.
		Very, very serious earthquakes and volcanism, war, and a celestial display of meteors falling from the sky.
		I'm not going to sit here and educate the people who know more than I do about Revelation.
		I'm going to tell you what I, as a professional remote viewer, downloaded from this.
		And essentially, it is specifically.
		I mean, I was a simple Christian until now.
		I did not really take the Bible seriously, but I do now.
		In fact, I take it very seriously.
		It appears to be dead on, specifically dead on.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Father Martin has always said, there will be an unquestionable sign from the sky.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That's something the Father has said.
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		I am telling you that that specific revelation, that part of the revelation, was specifically the opening of the sixth seal.
		And that is why the church, I'm sure, decided not to say anything.
		Because if you read Revelations and what that means, why say it again?
		It doesn't need to be talked about anymore.
		If it happens, it happens.
		And I don't know what else to say about that.
		We're talking about war.
		We're talking about tremendous earthquakes and volcanism.
		And we're talking about the events being accompanied by a lot of meteors falling from the sky.
		Now, what has come out of this for me is some Very serious life changes.
		And something that I've decided to do, that a project that is the most important project that any remote viewer, anyone who learns technical remote viewing or SciTech, can do in my mind.
		And this is the project that I dedicate to Father Malachi Martin.
		And that is this.
		If you look forward in time, the way that along the timetable, the Revelations timetable in the Bible, the most important thing that technical remote viewing can do for generations to come is to identify what the mark of the beast is and who the beast is.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, yes.
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		Because if we lose our lives in the travails ahead, that's one thing.
		But if we accept that particular mark, then we lose our souls.
		We lose our souls.
		And that is why it's imperative for us right now to identify, to begin to identify exactly in terms that we can understand today at the end of the 20th century what that mark is and who the beast is specifically.
		That is the new project and that is the one I'm dedicating to Malachi Martin.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Is the third secret itself specific beyond so specific that it would have created a worldwide panic?
		In other words, it is Revelations, but as you read Revelations in the Bible, it's specific and at the same time rather non-specific.
		Is the Third Secret very specific?
		What reason would there be other than duplication not to release it?
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		I think for the reason that you just mentioned there were blastover worldwide panic.
		I think that that was a wrong decision.
		I mean, this is my own, this is Ed Dan speaking.
		I think that that may have been a mistake on the part of the Catholic Church to hold it back.
		To hold it back, yes.
		And I'll tell you why.
		Because knowing this now, albeit through technical remote viewing, has changed me.
		It's redirected and reordered my priorities in life.
		And in a way that I think is very important.
		I think that that knowledge would have done the same thing to many believers, at least Christians, had it been promulgated when the apparition said that not later than 1960, when the apparition said that they should be promulgated.
		So my advice is if for your listening audience, if you don't have a God to pray to, you better go out and get one.
		Make sure it's the right one.
		Get your internal house in order.
		And you need some role models to look at some for minds and lives and the actions of people that are good role models.
		Jesus Christ, Mother Teresa, or even Jimmy Carter will do.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		The sixth seal is open.
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		The opening of the sixth seal that is connected with the third part of the Fatima Revelation, also called the third secret of Fatima.
		That's what's connected with that.
		That's what that secret was.
		That is what the Catholic Church held back.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Could SciTech locate the sixth seal?
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		It is not a thing, Art.
		It's not a thing.
		It's an idea.
		The seal itself is a set of circumstances and consequences.
		It's not a thing.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		Like the Ark of the Covenant or the Holy Grail.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I've got you, yes.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It's esoteric.
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		It's supernatural, what we call supernatural.
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		It's natural if your horizons are wider, but it's supernatural in terms of us menial human beings.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That's really frightening information.
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		We selected the beast of Revelation 13.
		We wanted to determine, and using today's lexicon, what the tool of technical remote viewing could download looking at the idea of the beast of Revelation 13.
		And the beast, we thought, might equate to an individual, but it did not.
		It is the animal nature of man as opposed to the divine nature of man.
		That's where the field, this antichrist idea, this field that finds resonance.
		That's the beast.
		That is what we derive by looking at that term.
		The term 666 is a symbol for the beast in Revelations, but it's also the number of a man, if you remember.
		And what 666 amounts to, I've mentioned this once before, we did some further study on it to elaborate it.
		It is essence, we end up sketching and describing actual physical money, and we end up describing situations where possession, greed, money, and lust are involved.
		It's the vehicle via which the beast, this idea, rules the hearts of men, exercises the people.
		Power is really exercised over people because of money, the root of all evil.
		The vehicle of money is used.
		The pursuit and the fixation upon worldly things.
		So that's what that equates to.
		But the mark of the beast was the most interesting of all because in prophecy it specifically states that women who are nursing children and woe to the woman who is nursing or with child because a heavy price is going to be paid by infants.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I remember you were saying this, Kanye, and it has to be, what, three years ago?
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		About two and a half years ago.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Two and a half years ago.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay.
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		We weren't sure.
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		We thought, remember, we thought at the time that we were dealing with the bovine AIDS?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, yes, I recall.
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		It isn't.
		It is this.
		It is this vaccine.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		But that was so close.
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		Well, that's not good enough for us.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		But that's still very close.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It's AIDS or a form of AIDS and it affects babies.
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		But ironically, it's the vaccination itself that is defective in some way.
		There's an advocacy group that's pushing the government.
		They want the government to hurry.
		Accusing the government of erring on the side of caution.
		Well, and there's a consortium that's putting this out on the street.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I think, though, Ed, sensible people, if presented with an AIDS vaccine who understand their sex lives, what they're doing and what they're not doing, will act accordingly and will not exactly rush down to get something they don't need.
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		They have no choice, Art.
		If you're a child in school, you will not be able to go to a public school without being administered this vaccine.
		You were a government employee, the same person.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You're saying it's going to be mandated?
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		I'm saying you're compelled to take it.
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		It's going to be mandated to take it.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Over my dead body.
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		Well, I mean, you're considering it.
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		I mean that.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Over my dead body.
		Look, I understand how I conduct myself sexually.
		I'm monogamous.
		And I know that I'm okay.
		I know my wife's okay.
		That's it.
		I'm not going to take, I don't care what they do.
		I mean it over my dead body.
		I would not go and take it.
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		Well, again, harking back to Revelations, it is described that the people that refuse this mark will be essentially excommunicated to what in Revelations is termed the desert of the nations or the wilderness of the people.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, you know, I can actually see how that would occur.
		In other words, the mark, as you call it, would make you socially acceptable.
		The lack of the mark would make you virtually an outcast.
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		Well, it goes deeper than that.
		You're actually compelled and under, coerced, actually, to being vaccinated because you simply can't travel.
		You can't get a good-paying job or perhaps any job if you don't have that vaccination because AIDS becomes such a terrible epidemic.
		Look at Africa today.
		And these are all young adults, the most economically important group that are dying for the most part.
		And that's the group that the United States at least can't afford to lose because those are the ones that are going to pay Social Security for you and I. That is why this idea of the desert of the nations was so important.
		Because, you know, what do you do if you're trying to escape the domination of a new world government?
		You have to go somewhere.
		And it turns out that this wilderness of the people are physical sites that are not pre-designated.
		They're just places that congregations of people who do not want that mark end up and being together, like-minded people, spiritually oriented and like-minded.
		And there's a sorting out.
		There's a sort of an exodus that occurs to these spots.
		And there's a sorting out that's difficult to understand.
		Essentially, supposedly led and executed by angels.
		But SciTech has called these spots sanctuaries.
		They're sanctuaries in terms of geophysical events, too.
		And lastly, the people at those places are to receive what Revelations calls the bond of the covenant.
		Now, when we remote view this, we might as well be Nostradamus trying to describe a skyscraper or a Cadillac today.
		It is something that I do not have a lexicon for.
		The closest that I can describe this particular event, again, that's termed the bond of the covenant in any English language, is something like the fundamental particles of nature coalescing into a cloud above these people.
		And that's all I can do with that.
		I don't have the Pesaurus, the personal memory bank, the lexicon to be able to deal with what is happening here.
		It's natural.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And is this why sometimes you're close, for example, the bovine AIDS and now the mark, the vaccination, but nevertheless the AIDS and still the children.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		In other words, you see a result, but you don't quite see the mechanism that brings it about?
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		Because we don't have the lexicon installed yet.
		When we were looking, for instance, when we were looking at the idea of AIDS as a disease, of the HIV virus turning into a full-blown pandemic, wasn't there yet when we were trying to determine what was killing these children.
		And when our lexicon is loaded, when our memory banks have this information, when we perceive an idea, an abstract idea, it's a right brain type of activity, that idea has to find the label in our memory banks.
		If it can't find the label, we can't express it as individuals.
		What Tritec in the past described as huge as this kill shot, a solar event of such magnitude that much of Earth will be affected and many people will be killed, we are now able to put into a timeframe because of our work in the last two months on revelations.
		Those events, the mark of the beast, for instance, occurs as an event within the seven seal events.
		It is one of the events that is described in terms of the opening of the seventh seal.
		Also under the seven seal is an event where one-third of Earth's population will die in a horrible catastrophe.
		That happens to be the kill shot.
		So now we have a timeline, not only an event line, what event follows another, which event follows another, but we have a timeline now too, because the AIDS vaccine will be on the street in just over three years.
		That's the mark of the beast, right?
		So just about that same time frame will occur this massive solar event.
		And now we know that we're talking about 2001 for this kill Shot.
		So the kill shot is 2001.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So you finally put a date to it.
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		We finally have it down within it, a date that we're comfortable with.
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		That we're comfortable with.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		More and more scientists now, Ed, are suggesting that the dinosaurs received their own very special kill shot.
		I have talked to a number of credentialed PhD types lately who have said that kill shots of the kind you describe, they believe, instead of the Big Bang theory, are responsible for the creation, destruction cycle that mainstream science is now beginning to embrace.
		So what you're suggesting is now believed by many.
ed dames ▲ ● ▼		Well, it's interesting to be alive.
		When we consider how short the generation of man is, it's interesting to be alive at this point in time, to actually bear witness to these kinds of things, that there's the horror and all of the other attendant human emotions.
		But nevertheless, it happens to be a very unique, synchronistic time to be alive, I think.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It is that.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		This concludes our new Millennium Special.
