P.S.

The following message sections were written before the website
went LIVE – on the last day of 2020.

These messages were withheld from imparting while the auction
was running so as to not take the focus away from
the Premier Event activity.

They serve to express a laundry-list of ‘Hopes’ for Humanity;
outreach to a Nobel laureate; a personal note of gratitude;
and further musings on things that had happened over time.

The last Post Script note added here was created in June of 2020,
– six months before the website went LIVE.

These messages are preserved 99.96 percent intact,
(I could not help but add one word or two here or there.)
The lines have been specially-formatted to try best assist those individuals
with vision and/or literacy challenges so they may select text-to-voice
to listen to the messages spoken aloud since the pages of script are full,
lengthy and without redactions. 

And now, without further ado,
the long ago extra words and pages
that were written
‘Once – upon a time’.

And – should the Above,
warrant
–  a paradigm shift,…

– I hope together – we might work to evolve our status on this planet
as responsible, sensible, reasonable, tolerable, adaptable,
compassionate, impassioned, patient, loving beings
– each of us respectful of the others space and personal privacies;
gardeners and stewards of the land; and better caretakers
of other creatures – including ourselves.
Mindful and more sensing of connections, to things and matters
than we may have been.
– More grateful, for this opportunity/ blessing – this – Life.

We must find ways to stop and reverse the impact and effects
of man-made pollution and other minefields and ecological disasters
– past/happening/eminent/and potential – and work to make it so.
(Cheers – Capt. Jean Luc Picard)-

We all live on this one planet.
We all breathe one air,
– the same atoms,
that the dinosaurs passed through their lungs.
We all have one thin ozone layer,
protecting us from radiation,
– above limits – to which,
We – cannot survive.
We are ALL in this – together.
______

Fossil fuels which come from vast pools and pockets  locked-away
from the surface of the planet were created out of decayed remains
of once living plants and animals.

Removed from the ground, this carbon is added into
the concentration-gradient problem of green-house gases
– that is – and exists at Earth’s surface and up through to the exosphere.

And knowing that the ability of carbon re-uptake from the Atmosphere
– by photosynthesis being reduced from the loss of green plant biomass
– that results when the largest single producer of planetary oxygen
– the Amazon rain forest – the Earth’s lungs – experiences like a cancer
growing – when put to the torch.

We are all threatened – with shortened breath.

Burning this forest – so that cattle-agriculture may be introduced
which as a farming by-product methane – arises.
Be here informed – that methane CH4 is much worse in climate impact
effects than is CO2!
Warming the frozen tundra will affect the permafrost layer
– releasing methane -from formerly frozen ground!!
– Wake up!

This raises temperatures AND as heat energy in our Atmosphere
becomes trapped by the increasing volume of insulating
greenhouse gases wrapping our Earth – the melt-rate of ice packs
increase – shifting ocean currents – altering and affecting
climate conditions around the globe. Increasing the likelihood
of natural disasters and tremendous ecologic and economic costs.

The fallout of acid rain, top soil erosion, and the bleaching
of our coral reefs will change our farms and the dynamics
of aquatic populations and those who are sustained by them,
including ourselves.

These troubles – coupled with: rising sea levels;
advancing erosion from increased rain and flooding,
or prolonged drought and ‘heated’ hard-panning;
the polluting of rivers with fertilizer and top soil run- off;
the acceleration of the degradation of soils;
and the de-forestation of our main planetary
oxygen-factories the rainforests increases conditions that lend
to desertification, causing mass migrations and social upheaval.

We need to suck carbon from the air,
to reverse Climate/Chemical/ and Biologically adverse reactions!

Renewable energies make use of alternative energy sources
– such as the Sun, Wind, and Waves, flying /spinning/energy-pulling
sails/kites/breeder reactors or /steaming compost piles
and forms yet to be imagined and realized.

These energy systems – once are built/constructed
can produce Energy with negligible waste by-product,
and can last for a very long time – with magnetic bearings?

Gleaning carbon with growing plants which pull CO2 from the air
in their daily functioning, would help keep the CO2 level from increasing
above that which would and will occur if mined carbon fuels keep being
relied upon.
– Try algae for fuel. Some can be eaten as well!

We should be able to find a ‘Pause’ button.
Perhaps – ‘You mean this Saucer-shaped one – over here?’
– shades of Monty Python.
– I can just see Terry Gilliam’s brain working right now 
(giant finger pointing) – but – seriously now folks!

(This section is added for those who would try see
a brighter happier tomorrow for everyone.)
Let’s look on the bright side!

If I have the attention
of most Earth People,…
– Hello!

– Pardon me my ‘cultural joking and idioms’ that fail to be appreciated.
I can only work with what I know and what I have comprehended,
from my mid-Twentieth Century, middle-American cultural experience.
Apologies – I mean no disrespect. Namaste.

I would humbly beg a message to all of us – (even to myself),…
– If the object of the discussion above, really is real,…
what might it have answers to?

Might not there be a means of solving energy issues globally?
It might help allow clean water for all?
It might give insight to human health conditions,
diseases and ailments, and what is needed in the personal realms
physical/sexual/mental/and social well-being
– helping us to maximize our life-spans?

Could not – gardens and orchards come to sprout
from where gardens and orchards might never elsewise?
– Why can we not imagine a world – where we all – work to improve
our own, little ‘parcels’ – wherever they may be?
If we all took a little more care in ‘tending our yards’,
‘cleaning-up’ inside as well – then – it starts to feel good.
A little exercise.
A little sprucing-up here and there – and soon others may take note
/attend – and follow suit – as well?

Eventually and eventfully,…
there would be a ‘riotous panoply of colors and floral and herbal scents’.
– Each new Spring garden dawn more beautiful – as the gardens grow.

It is the kind of ‘dream stuff’
that makes me want to have a picnic,
in some shady grove, by a babbling brook somewhere
and give my appreciation to the Almighty – who graces such blessing.

Page 32 of 50

As long as everyone agrees – that if  you/we/us/they/and them
do no harm,
you /we /us – all
– may have our space /time /and place to be and to become
and where we can to look toward – and prepare for
– Tomorrow.

May you – (we – all)
‘Live and let live-long and prosper’.
Strive to be excellent.
Do what helps to express the best of you
the best – in you.
– Feel free to make mistakes
– learn from them,
then,
make improvements.
Listen.
Think.
Be patient.
Be kind.
Be.
Shine.
Laugh.
Love your life.
Share your love.
Be a good neighbor.
Be helpful.

We all desire to feel belonging,
– being needed /important and special.
We each – all – are – important.
– We each – See /Hear /Smell /Taste /Feel 
– live and experience this Life.

We also carry some energy/ability to sense without words
‘matters of others’ – or when there is something ‘amiss’ or elsewise.
(I am of a mind there is. – But I could be wrong,
I am not perfect and I certainly don’t know everything.

We – each – have a voice and each contributes to the Story of Humankind
– the stories of Us – in our own unique ways.

And we each, need an audience, – to view, listen, and appreciate,
– and then,
do so for – them
– as – they – perform.

(Take turns and all may enjoy.)

When something amazing comes to one’s attention
– a singing bird, the prismatic effect of a cloud before the Sun,
a leaf on the wind – a jumping fish,…
we like to share the experience or view,
and the person that we share with,
is – altered, changed – enhanced, by that – simple, little,
beautiful – shared moment.

Page 33 of 50

We seek communion with each other – to share.
We seek relate–ability.

We tell stories – to interact,– show our sides
and tell of things we find interesting.
We all do matter, because we have that vital spark that pulses
in our veins and in our brains, which permits such amazing dreaming.

We each have a mouth to utter words in a clear voice,
and reach into others hearts – through their open ears,
and unclosed, searching eyes,…

But our tongues – must be connected to our brains.
We must not intentionally, spread falsities or promote ill-will
through our speech or actions,
nor should we keep silent in the face of ill will 
or things we know are false – which purposely mislead 
and betray our kind hearts.

However, – the poet/singer/writer/orator may use powerful words
that can be provocative, to pull at the listeners ear and heartstrings,
– sometimes raising tears. (But those tears – reflect a connection
/communing‘ – that was experienced and heart-felt.)

This Earth – is big enough for us all if we stop tearing each other down
and start building friendships and mutual respect.
(Variety is the spice – of this life.)

We must work to be our best Human selves
and strive to make – our selves happy, – our homes happy,
– our neighborhoods happy.

(If we ”look out for’, each other’,
instead of, ‘look-out”, for each other’,
– we can build ‘happy’ and safe communities.)

(We should strive
not to be cookie-cutter same communities
but allow for aesthetic variety,
– may we display what shines bright in our hearts
and not grey concrete only.)

As groups, – we must resolve ourselves to solve disputes – peaceably.
– Fact-based with soundly-reasoned, calm, clearly-argued,
and materially-supported evidence,
and – we must be willing to accept decisions,
– (while reserving rights to press for revisiting and seeking appeal.)

The goal of Justice,
– is to seek a return to social balance and harmony.
– I would hope reform, would include,
– reviewing how the judge
(‘decides and weighs’  or  ‘weighs and decides’.)

To find Justice requires an open mind, and an understanding
of the – ‘social/psycho/mental/medical/ economic’
health conditions existing – at the time of offense.

A Master’s level degree in Social Psychology – should be mandatory 
among the criteria needed of those individuals who seek selection
for making judgmental pronouncements – upon others.

Page 34 of 50

To help ensure therapeutic outcomes that can benefit all,…
– judgments made – should be totally–woke and socially couched,
– comprised of comprehending the unique set of circumstances
as presented,
– and a thoughtful and uplifting consideration
of the desired outcomes that maximize the redemption
and re-integration potential of the transgressor.

– (The motivations of the transgression
DO need to be examined and addressed
in order to heal those breaches of behavioral etiquette by the individual
and their humanity – seen and understood to ensure needs are met
for a successful re-integration into to Society.)

We must also utilize common sense /rational thought/and reason
– in our daily affairs if we seek to be viewed and considered
as competent and capable.

__

Two of the greatest sources of suffering
on this planet comes from
miscommunication and misunderstanding.

We need to be vigilant that we hear and take-in correctly
– and not miscomprehend nor misconstrue.
Let us speak clearly repeating, and rephrasing as necessary
to ensure the message has the best chance to be properly heard
and absorbed by the ear.

– Those listening must be allowed to seek clarification
to ask to rephrase and  enunciate,
– should there be need – especially
when important matters come across unclearly.

We need speak-up if we or others in the room didn’t hear.

Ask for clarity – when someone has something important to relay
– if you didn’t understand what ever it was – ask – again.

Do not settle for ignorance – humans are fact-suckers
– we use knowledge to operate in our daily lives!

If you base your efforts and activities – on faulty facts
your works will suffer.

We also shouldn’t let our pride stand in the way,
should we grow weaker, in – leg, arm, ear, eye, or mind.
We should not ‘disdain’, (due to ego), medical aides/ devices
/or treatments – if they allow for a better sense of – wellbeing.
Quality of Life is what matters.

New ‘understandings’ arise every day.
Take Heart! New tools are around the corner,
– hold firm, be strong, and cures may be found!!

‘We Humans’ should not shy from learning a thing,
That is how Humans have operated from the dawn of our species.
We seek knowledge. We Humans are curious,
we are seekers of Answers – and more Questions.
‘Why?‘ and ‘Why Not?‘
We are like Border Collies – we need to ‘be at’ something.
Humans are built to puzzle problems and notice things awry
and we can envision and cogitate on possible solutions
that could provide remedy
– and we might strive – to try make things better.
And we can make plans – and DO it – implement them!
Make – things – happen!

Page 35 of 50

But besides deepening ‘understandings’,
We Humans also love to express Joy and Happiness,
as well as impishness, – by ‘perplexing’
and – pushing perceptual-boundaries.
We like to work our brains.
To paint, sing, and create useful tools,
– as well as erect elaborate follies to confound the senses
and stymie the mind just for the intelligent, architectural,
humorous – fun – of it.

We do – because this life, we all are blessed with,
– is deserving of celebration and sharing in and of experiences.

(We should also be able to laugh at ourselves.)

We are beings that crave to connect
the ‘magic sparks’ in ourselves with those in others.
We need to share rainbows and the funny puppies we see.

A happy childhood should be hoped to be the tale
of every adult.

Children need to grow up healthy; happy; safe; well nourished;
with clean houses – enriched with toys and books;
and schools to learn about growing up; and other children to play with;
and adults to love and care for them as they grow.

If basic and social needs are met,
and individuals be permitted to  ‘expand their horizons’,
and ‘dream ‘dreams”, and to ‘think on
and be permitted to work on, to pursue,
and to strive achieve and manifest them.
– And not be discouraged from asking questions‘,…
‘What could we learn‘?
What could we – do, achieve, and accomplish?

By our human nature – we seek to find answers.
-‘How can we do things better?’ How did ‘X’ happen?
Why does ‘B?’ – When? Who? What?

We seek understanding – to make sense of things
– in and around us – even though they may not be
pleasant answers or questions.
– The answers – serve to construct our ‘operating realities’,
and guide our behaviors and ‘color our world’.

Page 36 of 50

And it is the quality of Questions,
also, that matter,
– when ‘seeking‘ is attempted
– if it is quality Answers we hope to find.

We also need keep an open mind,
in order to recognize them when they present.

But we must be able to envision a problem,
– so we can seek solution.
We have to have the data if we are to make sense of a thing.
– This is how we humans, are wired.

We are intelligent beings and know that sometimes
we have to review the previous snapshots and perceptions
that we’ve carried around – for a long time
– and compare them to ‘current sensibilities’ – analyze the data
and perhaps come to a new understanding, – a fresh perspective to act on,
to ‘dream – into action‘. (Cheer’s to you Howard Jones!)

‘This – thing ‘here’ (mention higher up on this page),
should give us pause from slamming
and making fun of each other (as children might)
– like childish playground battles
– belittling, begrudging, bullying, and bashing,…

There should arise within the breast the feeling that we can be
and do better and kinder – more helpful to those in need.
(Including those that cannot speak for themselves
as fellow Earth inhabitants.)

We are children of this Earth – but we are not its only creatures.
This lonely blue marble of a planet provides shelter
for all of us life forms.

Think.

If we pursue a development – of ourselves,
‘to be the best ‘selves’ we can strive to be’
– in our personal and public lives – we might compete
against our own successes?

If we strive to enhance – to build on our passions – our dreams
– for self, family, and all – of what could be,…
– would there be people
still – killing – others?

Why?

For what sick, and unhealthy intent?

Page 37 of 50

I would seriously hope the Object mentioned Above,
might give us all pause to reflect – each of us,
and consider the chance to evolve our understandings
of – ‘Life the Universe and Everything’
– (Rest In Peace, Douglas Adams.)

There can be an alleviation of needless suffering and hunger
– If we strive together – If we listen to each other,
if we debate honestly, fairly, and considerately
– If we ‘put our thinking caps on’
and
if,
we can mesh-together key elements,
strategies, and new information,…
– We can come to consensus,
– to compromise – for the benefit of all,
– and move ahead and work to make and keep this planet
sustainable for Humanity
as much as we are physically able.

There can be a new awareness
in our actual but oftentimes disregarded position
of us humans as planetary caretakers.

(The above mentioned Saucer must have me include
– You – Others]
– who are [who You are])

– [We could work together possibly.
I think we are at a point in technological comprehension
of the Physics of this Universe that we humans can understand
better now than at any point in time before, and might be better
neighbors /cohabiters now(?)]

Anyway – I don’t know what I ask
as I have never been in such a position before.

– [I wish peace and a global/personal review
of attitude – to carry inside ourselves.
One of: helping hands; open heart; mutual respect; cooperation;
sharing; and lifting-up.
– Not: breaking down; bullying; belittling; or befouling.

Working to make things better
for all Earthlings and Visitors too.]

There is only one planet as our Earth,
as far as we are currently aware,
around this neck of the galaxy.

Pick it up or Clean it up
– if you spilled it or if it just gets spilt.

Dispose of trash correctly – so that poisons and nuclear waste
in rusty barrels at the bottoms of oceans do not become
ticking time bombs. – (What about sarcophagus things
made out of Roman cement mix? It could help? – Just saying.)

Page 38 of 50

Don’t just have it lay around, posing a risk
to someone or something.
Enjoy the scenery, leave it nice for those that follow.
Leave a small footprint.

Let me speak honestly, sincerely, kindly.

We are fragile. We get by with our quick wits, stereoscopic vision
and our opposable thumbs.
But we suffer greatly the mysterious forces of earthquakes,
volcanic eruption, tornado, tsunami, meteor shower, eclipse – and more!

Before we know something – there is fear of the unknown.

So we create scapegoats for our suffered natural disaster – or eclipse,…
It was the ‘Power above’ – so we appease You with this goat
if You will just please stop SHAKING!

As we develop as a species and discover new information,
we need to be able to make changes
in our ways of thinking and behaving.

In our learning more about our planet and the Universe
we need to be allowed to review the systems
of ‘Cosmological comprehension’ that we have relied upon
from the ‘Dawn of Memory’ through to the setting of the foot of Man
on the surface of the Moon (and safely back to Home – to Earth)
seven times! (Kudos to you NASA!)

Now, 50, 52, (make that 55 years removed from 2025) have passed
since Michael Collins, Neil Armstrong, and Edwin ‘Buzz’ Aldrin
carried out that historic first manned Lunar mission.

We study subatomic particles and snip-and-splice DNA.
We use robots for surgery.
There are about 2.1, (make that 7.21 in 2025) billion smart cell phones
in the world today, as well as about 2 billion personal computers.

– If there should be a ‘time’ to ‘re-evaluate’ cosmologic constructs
as a – species,…
Now – more than at any time before
– If we seek to know the truth about things
We – as tech-savvy – cosmopolitan consumers, are capable
of conceiving all sorts of tech wonders.
Now we could see things more clearly.
Now is the time – to go to school,
on how special this planet is
– how ‘all these life forms’ make this a glorious place!
There is Life here!

Page 39 of 50

When we have looked up at the sky we have been awed
– by the colors of the sunlight through the clouds at dusk or dawn
/rainbows /lightning /tornado /auroras/shooting stars/ eclipse
/cycles of the Moon /the blinding white Sun, and the pin-pricks
of other stars far, far away. – (wink-wink) George Lucas

We know that we all are blessed to have this place to call Home.

But – when we have looked up,
we have also wondered
if we are alone among the stars?

The sheer number of stars that exist
– lean one toward the idea that there are
 – others,
I believed so then – and now – even more so.

We should be able to accept that we have been interacted with,
for a VERY long time.
Possibly there are – or were,
‘advanced, intelligent beings’ existing,
besides us Humans on this planet
all along?

Some might say ‘freak-out’ – rebel.
But,
– If, They – have been here for a long, long, time,…

Well – we are still here, and have not been all eaten or eradicated.

I would posit that they also – enjoy us, and – this planet.

I would though hypothesize that
– ‘They might be more comfortable with a planet warmer
than humans prefer’. – If so – it is our duty to make them good,
stylish /fashionable /warm /big /furry – boots /hats /gloves – and coats.
– [alien joke, but, – no joke, maybe.]

Faith is fraught with peril as to the ‘regarding without questioning‘ of a thing.

There is the chance – that what was first perceived,
– is later viewed as something – else.

If a mind – is allowed to think, and explore the possibilities,
reality can appear differently – if you look closely at your image
in the glass.

We should not tell ourselves – or others – lies.
Though we can be allowed to fib to provide comfort.

So We either,
accept this new view of reality,
– (one with ‘saucers’ in it) – if it is real,
and if we think about matters ‘considerately’
– without censor or exclusion and re-think and review
what we think we ‘know‘,…

Page 40 of 50

– and we consider how we could be,…

How would we hope to behave?
How do we wish to be perceived – to all
if given a chance – the opportunity, to begin anew?
– To have a recommitment to be better versions of ourselves
as members of our species?
– or,…
we go crawl back into our caves
– and pull the rocks
up – over our heads.

It is my supreme hope
that the religious of the planet,
– and the holders of other views
– may we all – listen with open ears,
and take in and comprehend  – with open minds.

It is my hope this ‘Saucer’ experience,
will help us renew our sense of Humanity,
and that our species can grow through this new ‘knowledge’
– in many positive ways.

We all are part of one ‘life pulse’.
– We can all have hope: when we use our brains,
when we take time and think;
when we work together; when we break bread – together;
– share of our hearth; share of and in our joys,
– when we ‘abide’ – and are glad in good company,
and appreciate quiet times, and personal space, as well.

When We work together
each adding our own strengths and creative abilities,
– environmental issues can be overcome and resolved,
and our Humanity – and our Planet – safeguarded
– as much as it can be.

– We must protect our ecosystems,
and protect bio-diversity.
We have one Earth, one Home.

Whew!
Now I know how James Madison, must have felt
trying to appeal to the better angels of a varied populace
– seeking to express and empower  the individual in society.
Trying to come up with words that can help knit
our individual selves ‘together’, so that we might review
our objectives/aspirations /dreams and to look with a fresh eye
– at what We – as a species – (and the other residents of this Earth)
– would hope to have – for our futures.

‘We’, – beings of this Earth – all, have rights, which support
self-determination,  personal growth, and self-development ideas
which are supportive of (creative and constructive) dreams
– of better ways, things, and methods.

We should live in a world,
of Reason, Respect, Cooperation,
and Compromise, which acknowledges all individuals
possess the inalienable rights, and freedoms of Privacy
to allow for following personal dreams;
a seeking of personal – Happiness;
and a sense of individual fulfillment,
that might be attained.

Page 41 of 50

Also – since this is my one chance,
to pass on something I find very special
– my two favorite book quotes,
they come from the same book.

“The bond that links your true family,
is not one of blood,
but of respect and joy, in each other’s life.”

and, the second part, –

“Rarely, do members of one family grow up under the same roof.”
(Richard Bach, ‘Illusions:
The Adventures of a Reluctant Messiah’.)

Let us open our hearts and embrace a brighter,
better ‘Tomorrow’.
Saucers – or not – We can make a difference in this World – for the better.

Little things do add up.
Let your light shine.
Give a compliment, lend a hand,
sing a song, paint a poem.
– Eventually, we can have it made – in the shade.
Be kind.

(This is it, – guys and gals,
– the wakeup call, – we have,
– ALL – been waiting on.)

Now – is the time to evolve our thinking/dreams/goals/wishes
/and behaviors.

Peace,
– Bless You All,

P.P.S.
Bob Dylan,
Nobel laureate/poet/artist/singer/writer of words
and songs that you are, this message is for you.

A long-time friend related to me his interaction with You,
– (one that occurred a while back.
I like words and I told him,
I could write something that You might see.
But, I would always drag my feet or be otherwise, distracted,…
and Time passed, and have delayed,
until I – did try – and then,
I found it was a little difficult.
