------------------------------------ 
  Normally tapes from the year 1999 were very clear because by then we often we were using an improved setup with two mics but not always. Sometimes we would go remote and record off-site which led to less then quality sound recordings. Try as he might, our sound editor was only able to clear it up to the level heard which is far better than the original. We apologize for the quality and hope the information presented makes up for the lack of clarity. The main theme of the first side centered on religion as both Kiri and Omal spoke about some of the more well-known television evangelists and the religion they used to benefit themselves in some cases. It is also a chance to hear a bit of the religion of Kiri's and some of the things she has her belief based around. It's a startling dichotomy between the dimensions but one educational for where we're headed eventually. Leonedies stays longer than normal to give a warning about a different religion, a religion of technology and the head-long race to artificial intelligence supremacy without taking into account the potential for a consciousness developing from what was being created twenty years ago. We get from Karra an inside look at what being an ambassador involves when dignitaries are not scheduled and the lives of those on the base finding their assignment not what they had been expecting. Tia has lots to say about global warming though most is in debunking the theory which in 1999 was still being debated heavily here on Earth. It's possible she didn't foresee the current administration and their agreement with her findings.

   Kiri is covering the ring mistress duties for this session and gets things started with a talk on coercion and how to spot when someone is being coerced. She gives us some pointers to look out for before the talk transitions to religious coercion where we go over some evangelical preachers and how they are able to hold a crowd in the way they do. She compares it to the confidence she holds in her own skills as the key to their success. What she does share with us is her form of religion that would be closer to that of a higher dimensional Druid if there was to be something comparable to here. Because of that, she expresses her confusion over religions where love is the theme but killing is acceptable if they are your enemies. She leaves to perhaps ponder that but Omal comes on to continue the same topic which was already fascinating. Starting with the spiritual development to a higher plane of consciousness we get back on the topic of religion. His point he makes is that no one should be converted to a belief because everyone has their own belief system. Even if that system is the same as ten million other people, no two are alike due to no two people thinking alike. We go over another common thread of most religions is their origins, in this case, the Jewish religion which spawned a number of major religions followed by a large percentage of the planet's inhabitants. It's our evolution as a species we end with as he quizzes us on the development of a computer. That a device designed for the purpose of combat had the end result be the world of today shows that all things bad do not produce some good. Leonedies comes on next and spends a longer time talking than normal on a subject Monka had brought up with him. The subject was AI and the concept Leonedies wanted to get across was of the possibility that an internet made up of millions of computers could become the basis for a new life form. This is a timely topic as quantum computing is soon to become more common and computer systems operate beyond their creator's intelligence. This was from seeing the beginnings of this life form here on our planet in 1999 during his research on the topic. This was cliff hanger as we changed sides to learn his thoughts on the matter.

   Back on topic again, Leonedies describes things to look for as the new life form he describes becomes aware from the dormant stage it's in now. His suggestion once it has been identified is to treat it with respect but learn how to punish and reward it in a way it understands. That is the trick and some of the points made before he leaves that we throw around. Karra changes places with Leonedies and from her we get a clue to why Leonedies choose the name Daniel. She mentions that Daniel, a name solely to be used for the conference, was taken from the bible. His being 8th dimensional being in a 6th dimensional body means he is coming from no physical substance to a physical form designed specifically for the task he had set himself. Unfortunately static plays havoc with the recording for a few minutes which clears up before she finishes. The information is worth the problems as we get from her an inside look at some of her duties as an ambassador and the challenges faced from that appointment. We learn an assignment to the base requires a year of being stationed before travel back to Sirius is allowed so we find out some of those stationed there can sometimes want to leave after only a short period of time. Many people on this planet would have trouble with a year five miles below the surface of the Earth. As part of her ambassadorial position, she had the honor of announcing the creation of a new squadron composed of elite pilots whose name was in honor of the Baron, a pilot who had served as ringmaster for a bit of these channeling sessions. It was a special moment marred by the static choosing that point to appear. Tia closes out the session and notes the unusual place in the speaking order she found herself. As she says, no doubt due to her putting Kiri last all the time. What Tia has come to talk about is global cooling and all evidence to the contrary, she insists global warming is bunk and she has the research to prove it. We get four of the some thirty points she had found to disprove that global warming is a threat but all this research was being offered in 1999. Whether or not she turns out to be right or wrong, the jury will be out on if we will indeed be going past the point of no return or as she says, slow down a possible mini-Ice Age. The lessons from either will define our race as a species.
