Mr. Larry Maddrey
Columnist

Dear Larry:

Since your article came out...I've been in a quandary, and today the Si's have given me proper instructions as to what to do.

Quandary: I proposed a bargain, (for the Si's): I would quit making it rain constantly in this area, if the paper would publish a confirmation of the Multiple-Miracles which I'd just brought about (through the Si's) in this area. You dropped over, said okay, and ran the article. But: the article did not mention that I said in writing I'd bring a storm in a week, and got it in five days; that I'd make weird electromagnetic effects happen in this area, and then the "strange object in the sky" appeared, that I'd save the crops, and they were saved; that I'd actually bring a hurricane close enough to water the area down with rain, and hurricane Becky did just that. And so forth. These were the things you were supposed to publish, to make our agreement valid...yet you did not. Just a vague general mention that I'd written "a month ago" I'd make it rain and storm, and there'd been a "few". Ha.

All right. Now, problem. You did publish a confirmation for the Si's, although you confirmed the wrong things. And you seem to be in good faith about the matter, and want the rain stopped. Do I keep it raining all summer long (I can certainly do that) because you didn't give the Si's what they want? Or do I remove the mechanism that's set up...and make it stop raining...because you did produce a confirmation column, albeit the wrong confirmation, in good faith, but just erring?

Here is what the Si's have instructed me: I'm to keep on making it rain week after week, until I hear from you on this. If I do not hear from you on this then I'm to assume that you either don't care whether it rains or not, or, since the Si's are allowing you to be the fair judge of the matter...you realize you didn't give them what they wanted, and judge that the rain should continue. In the event that you write and tell me you thought the article was what the Si's wanted, and did it in good faith expecting the rain to end...then and only then will I stop the rainfall. Okay?

Best to you and yours....

Virginia Beach hit
by severe lightning

By JACK DORSEY

VIRGINIA BEACH — Lightning during a severe thunderstorm Thursday night touched ground at more than a dozen places, causing some damage and knocking out power to 25 or 30 customers.

The central dispatcher for the Virginia Beach fire and rescue squad said today two radio transceivers were knocked out in his office by surges in power from the storm.

Virginia Beach Junior High School, The Cavalier Hotel and at least four residences in scattered areas of the city placed calls to the fire department for assistance between 7:30 and 11 p.m. There were no injuries or major fires.

The U.S. Weather Bureau at Norfolk Regional Airport said today the thunderstorm was confined to Virginia Beach and had little effect on other Tidewater area cities.

A spokesman at the Weather Bureau said the storm was located north, east and south of the airport and he called it a "typical thunderstorm."

He also said there has been a theory advanced lately that the unusually large amount of haze in the area is responsible in part for lightning being grounded more easily. The haze condition might have helped, he said, but this is only a theory that is being studied.

Elsewhere in Virginia Beach, the Virginia Electric and Power Co. said it had a "hectic" night. "We had a lot of wind, rain and lightning," said Wallace Faison, district supervisor for the Virginia Beach Vepco office. "There were no widespread power failures."

Faison said the affected areas included Thalia Creek, Kings Grant, Kingston, Little Neck and Malibu. The power failures affected only three or four customers in each of the areas, he said.

A transformer on a utility pole exploded when struck by the lightning and caught fire, he said.

According to the rescue squad dispatcher, the two radios knocked out at the Princess Anne Plaza headquarters were a stand-by remote fire transmitter and the Public Works Department transceiver.

Officials at the Cavalier Hotel said today no damage occurred to the building.

This lightning attack - called by me in advance, in writing. (Documented.)

August 1, 1970 ..... TO ALL CONTACTS

(1) Re my EM and steam demonstration on this Norfolk/Virginia Beach area, large headline in the newspaper Ledger-Star here last night, 7/31/70: "VIRGINIA BEACH HIT BY SEVERE LIGHTNING" by Jack Dorsey. It points out that a severe lightning attack...caused bolts of lightning to hit more than a dozen places in Virginia Beach...including the Virginia Beach High School, The Cavalier Hotel (famous spot) and "at least" four homes in scattered areas of the city...the "storm" was confined to Virginia Beach...two radio transmitters were knocked out "by surges in power" (see my earlier correspondence to you re the "grid" that would indeed cause surges in power)...the authorities stated this lightning attack "is being studied" as to its cause...the Virginia Electric and Power Company said it had a "hectic night." And it is interesting that one of the radio transmitters knocked out was a "fire transmitter"..(do you recall that for a joke I stood in front of the fire department and signalled for a lightning attack recently?)

(2) The All Star-KC Chiefs Game last night. Score: Chiefs 24, Stars 3. And I told you...that I would use my mind, PK powers, to block and stop the Chiefs, right? Well, you say, obviously it didn't work, right? Wrong. The PK worked amazingly well. Let me show you how it did. The World Champions only made, earned, one touchdown. That's 7 points. And they got a kick. That's 3 points. All together the Chief's champion offensive team...only made 10 points! Not only that, but during the entire second half of the game, and remember they were playing, as it turned out, an impotent, helpless Star team that couldn't run and couldn't pass...during the entire second half the Chiefs could not score. They tried every trick in the book, too. And Dawson, said to be the best quarterback in all the pro teams, played just about the whole game. Now, the extra 14 points...were gift points..."cheap" touchdowns, as the pros put it...not made on purpose by the crack offensive team, but scored by the defensive team when the Star quarterbacks simply threw the ball away to Chief defenders, who took the gifts and ambled over for scores.

I think that Hank Stram, the Chiefs coach, would be fair enough to tell you...that the lowly Miami Dolphins, with equal practice time, could have beaten them, the Chiefs, last night. Not only that...the PK stopping the Chiefs very cold...but the PK gave the All Stars opportunities to make touchdowns at least a half a dozen times! But what did they do with the opportunities? Threw the ball away into the arms of the Chiefs, or dropped passes, stumbled and bumbled and tossed away every opportunity the PK attack gave them. As I wrote you previously...the PK cannot carry the ball. All it can do is pave the way for scoring, by blocking the other team and holding back the other team. The favored team must capitalize on the breaks...and this is where the Stars broke down. Without the two cheap gift touchdowns...the score would have been 10-3; and if the Stars had scored even two or three of the splendid chances the PK gave them to make touchdowns...they'd have beaten the Chiefs easily.

If you will watch the Chiefs now, as they go further into the season...you'll see them fall apart with key injuries. They'll win some games; but the PK will take them apart...and they won't be World Champions again.

You may think this is all poppycock; but I've been attacking with PK for several years - you might say I'm a pro at it - and remember how I dismantled the Eagles! Believe me, it's mighty potent stuff!

Know any other human who can call the shots on 2 months of rain, at least once a week? (Starting with drought!)

July 18, 1970

Editor, Virginian-Pilot Newspaper
Editor, Ledger-Star Newspaper
Mr. Larry Maddry
Mrs. N. Dyer, Court Reporter

Well, well, well...you see? You didn't pay attention. And look what happened!

As you know, since I first wrote you and put on record that I intended bringing rain to this drought-stricken area...this area has had rain every week for about two months, approx. I haven't missed one single week, have I, in bringing rain to this area since first writing to you?

Well, then...all I got from you was silence...so I put up an other-dimensional EM grid...so cause radio and TV and other electrical and EM weird effects in the area. Also, I warned you that Virginia Beach was going to be smarting...as the result of this rain, continued rain, and the loss of tourist dollars. Hokay!

You know what happened Thursday, July 16...giant Art Show at the Beach...people there by the thousands...an Annual Art Show. Outside. And the artists gleefully set up their paintings and rubbed their hands, seeing dollar signs in these thousands of onlookers. Swoosh! Down came the rain. People ran in all directions. Oil paintings and other paintings simply vanished as the rain poured down on them...and all those lovely dollar signs vanished, too, in the eyes of the artists...as they watched those lovely thousands of people run for their dry lives. I quote the newspaper: "Rain interrupted the show (art) twice Thursday and cut the volume of sales. Last year the total was about $19,000.00 for the first two days."

Based on the last year sales...the artists could have dropped roughly $9,000.00 (which is more than I make in a week). The next day...Friday...without repeated rainstorms...the artists made $13,669.00.

So...I warned you in advance they'd drop a bundle at the Beach from the rain...but you didn't listen...and they did.

Just as an added phillip...on Thursday nite and Friday nite, June 16 and 17...TV sets went haywire in this area...and across the TV screen flashed the message: "This is not your TV set, but due to co-channel atmospheric interference." There was also loss of sound on programs and other freakish things happening. The "grid" is getting stronger now.

But...Hope Is On The Horizon. Possibly the SI's may get their wish, bless their little hearts...and this true miraculous story just might get printed, so that it will be on record...in which case the storms will come to a screeching halt...and all will be heaven again for those Lovely Tourists, as well as the nail-biting Va. Beach Chamber of Commerce.

So you won't tell the people...the true story...of what
is happening, eh?
Shame on you. The primary duty...of a newspaper...is to keep
its public, the people, informed of the truth of things...no
matter what. Even UFO's.

So yesterday and today...the area has been deluged, and
bombarded with more lightning. Matter of fact, the area
is now getting quite soggy...floods everywhere; baseball
games rained out; racetrack flooded out; rivers flooding over,
and so forth.

And of course...the tourists, and all those lovely dollars,
ain't happy at all. How can they be...dodging lightning
bolts and wiping driving rain out of their eyes?

It is very interesting...how my UFO friends do this, you know.
Unless I've missed count...five weeks in a row, the same
thing has occurred. To bring the rain (and lightning) to
the Norfolk/Virginia Beach area...the ingredients are rounded
up on the west coast and the mid west, and then they are
moved to this area, where they are parked long enough to do
a fine job on this area of storms and lightning as per
my "arrangement." Simply check your weather maps...and you
will see that it has been so. Rain pours down over the
weekend....then there's a lull of a few days while the
necessary ingredients for the next deluge are rounded up
and brought across the country to here...and wham! There
we go again! 1,2,3,4,5 times now. Consistent, isn't it?

This can go on and on, you know. And will. But if you get
tired of lightning and rain...and want to help out the
Virginia Beach Chamber of Commerce...just run that story
the SI's want...and I personally will see to it that this
area has beautiful, gorgeous, rainless weather all the rest
of this tourist season.

National weather summary

Thunder showers lingered along the eastern seaboard today
following heavy downpours that swamped Washington and adja-
cent areas of Virginia and Maryland. The cloudbursts late Thurs-
day snarled rush-hour traffic in the Washington area, knocked out
power and telephone lines and flooded numerous low-lying street
intersections. Showers persisted from the Rockies to the western
Plains. Heavy thunderstorms also swept parts of the Gulf Coast
region late Thursday.
THE OUTLOOK: Scattered showers and thunderstorms are
predicted today from the Central Gulf Coast through the Atlantic
Coast states. Showers are also expected over the Northern and
Central Rockies and in portions of the Central Plains.

Ever been propositioned by a flying saucer?
Well, you are being, now.

The SI's communicated with me today and directed me to send
this message.

Their request: that the local newspapers tell the public
that they have saved the local crops, which were in disaster-
danger from drought. (Have you noticed your third rainstorm
is going on this morning outside?) Let the writer explain
the letters IN ADVANCE of the rainstorms, saying it would
happen. Also they request that the mysterious "halo" that
the Weather Bureau could not explain, be connected with
the letter stating that this area would be electro-magnetized
by an other-dimensional grid...and that weird, strange things
WOULD happen, like that halo.

In short, they want the people, the public, to know what is
transpiring. (And incidentally, if any of your friends start
behaving peculiarly...the SI's say that this giant electro-
magnetic field WILL AFFECT HUMANS, because each of us has an
electrical field of our own.)

In return...the SI's will cease with their rainstorms.

Now, why should the local newspapers cooperate in this? Very
simple. Bundles and bundles of money will be lost...by this
resort area, famous resort area...with the rain pouring down
every few days, on and on. Mrs. Gotrocks in New York will tell
her husband..."dear, let's not go down to Virginia Beach this
season, too much rain down there...let's go somewhere else."
And they will, too. And the people here in the hotels and
motels will have to sit inside the hotels and motels, cussing
and chewing on their fingernails in frustration.

Lots of tourist money involved.

And the SI's say...they will begin to show their craft, their
flying saucers and strange UFO's...in this area soon.

Incidentally...I work for nobody...part-time typist picking up
and there. Need any typing done up there?

In this letter...am going to make you a most interesting...proposition.

But first...have a chuckle for the day. You know, of course, that lightning struck and destroyed the humble Oil tank over the weekend, and the local fire department was on the job the whole weekend trying to contain it. Well at noon today I strolled over and stood right in front of the Fire Department and signalled the Si's to produce lots more lightning and storms. Heh heh. How fiendish can you get?

Now, to serious business. IF one of your newspapers will publish this entire matter...my letters, the dates on them...the drought...the danger...storms...crops saved...lightning attacks as per my call on it... Electromagnetic "grid" then the sighting of the "strange object in the sky". The whole thing. Publish it. Then I'll tell you what I'll do.

For starters...I'll stop making storms and hitting Norfolk with lightning.

For a bonus I'll do this: Most people think that Pete Rozelle, Commissioner of Pro Football, controls pro football. Actually, he does not. Owens does. Last year I controlled the Eagles, the Dolphins, and the Jets. They know about it, and so do my contacts. I think Maddry saw enough documentation on my work with pro football and basketball, to know something about this. Now, the Si's have a plan of their own...to attack all pro teams this coming season with the object of creating entire teams of walking-wounded. Well, that's their business. But I'll tell you what I'll do.

The paper that prints the above story that the Si's want printed...may choose any five pro football teams they want, for the coming pro season, to be losers. And you can start with the World Champions to be number one losers, if you want to.

I'll take those five teams...and beat them with my mind...just my mind... this coming pro season. Freakish things will happen to them...and they will not be able to make a Championship. They'll be losers next season.

I can do all that...as easily as I make storms and lightning attacks.

Try me, and see. Your readers should be fascinated to see...whether I can do it or not, even if you are not especially interested. Now, you might think it is childish for the Si's to take a special interest in such a trivial thing as pro football. But I happen to know their plan... and it is ultra-brilliant. Not trivial at all. Just looks that way.

And yet again...over this weekend...Norfolk has been struck by a rock 'em, sock 'em "severe, violent thunderstorm" as the Virginian-Pilot described it yesterday.

Featuring, as usual, my trademark...a dandy lightning attack.

Matter of fact...the lightning blew up its second oil tank in two weeks...once might be a coincidence (in spite of the fact that I put in writing in advance that lightning would attack) but twice? That's being rather selective you know.

Actually...the humor of it is that Humble Oil, in collecting insurance on this huge loss...will call the matter "an act of God"...when actually it was an act of Owens. Ha ha ha. No, I'm not confusing myself with God, now. I'm a lousy bookkeeper, have big feet, am potbellied middleaged loaded with human faults...but I do have this teensy weensy ability to make storms and have lightning strike.

What if I were ridden out of town on a rail? Wouldn't do any good. I once flooded India while I lived in Philadelphia...called in advance in writing, of course, as well as broadcast over the radio. Nope, distance doesn't stop this at all.

But look at it this way...the crops have been saved, haven't they?

You certainly can't say I haven't kept my written promise....Norfolk was a dry, drought-stricken area. You've had downpour after downpour....lightning attack after lightning attack.

And am working on more.

Gentlemen.

At present there is a very dangerous situation from New York to Atlanta...poisonous air, atmospheric inversion. They are predicting deaths from this, any day now. The air pollution in Washington D.C. reached its highest level in history. This poison air covers most of the Southeast. And the weather bureau sees no end to it at present.

I can and will remove this dangerous situation...for I can control the atmospheric conditions. (When I broke the 6-year drought on the East Coast, I had to reverse the high-altitude atmospheric conditions which had caused the drought.)

But this is a swap, a trade. In return, I want you to publish the June 16, 1970, letter I sent you...and simply state the fact that what I predicted in that letter, all of it, has come to pass...in five weeks' time. (It has.)

If you are thinking positive on this...better call me where I've a temporary typing job, 625-3848 (this is confidential, not to be passed on...the places I work at any time) or wire me at my home, 2828 Ballantine, Norfolk, upper apartment. Then I'll go into fast action to get rid of all this air poison over such a large area, fast, and I'll take your verbal word over the phone that you'll give me the published confirmation above that I ask for, in swap. Unlike many others, I trust newspapermen.
