To The Scientists I Know:&#13;
&#13;
Gentlemen, it is time...time to give you a demonstration...to strike fear into your  &#13;
hearts.  &#13;
I am not...your ordinary, orthodox human; even "experimenter".  &#13;
And I have waited too long, overlong...for some cooperation, from somebody. I've marked  &#13;
time...toying with pro football teams...waiting for some scientists, somewhere, to make  &#13;
an approach. Now it is too late. Too late.&#13;
&#13;
My demonstration will be...in the skies and heavens overlooking our earth...and e ven  &#13;
in outer space beyond our earth. This has nothing to do with the Si's work. This will  &#13;
be my own...and by the time you receive this, it will have been put into effect.  &#13;
Some time, perhaps, I will dismantle the apparatus. Perhaps.&#13;
&#13;
What I am going to do...is thrust tremendous, smashing, destructive thrusts of power...  &#13;
up through the skies over the earth, even unto outer space. No airplane will be safe  &#13;
in the air; no rocket ship will be safe in outer space. Invisible waves of irresistible  &#13;
force...will permeate our skies. Until I call them off, sometime, some day.&#13;
&#13;
My powers...and ability...have been taken too lightly. If not, then I would have  &#13;
been approached and cooperated with, before this time. I can't wait forever; therefore  &#13;
the infinite powers which I possess...must be brought out and thwacked across the heads  &#13;
of stupid humans...to show them that a fact is a fact. Then we will take it from there.&#13;
&#13;
So...right now the waters of the world are turning their intelligence toward the  &#13;
destruction of humans. This was brought about...because my word of warning was not  &#13;
heeded...re further pollution.  &#13;
Now...the very air of the earth overhead...will be a no-man's land...waiting, waiting  &#13;
for humans to get up into it. In planes or whatever.&#13;
&#13;
If you have any human decency...you will issue a general warning to the public not  &#13;
to fly in planes. But...the love of money being what it is...you will not, and  &#13;
they will.&#13;
&#13;
And airplanes will fall like snow in December. I think this is the Si half of my  &#13;
brown talking...but whatever...it is very real, as borne out by my past demonstrations.&#13;
&#13;
It is incongruous...I stop or divert the flow of giant lava slides, and save villages...  &#13;
yet not a word, not one word...goes out about it. The Si's are not credited; heir  &#13;
powers are not pointed out to the public. So...we go from positive to negative  &#13;
powers. Unfortunate. But...there it is.&#13;
