I remember as a young man finding a really nice hornet’s nest just above the clear water of the Wacissa River south of Tallahassee Florida . I wanted it as a trophy for my room and proceeded to scheme how I was going to get it minus the hornets. J The plan that I hatched was to swim up under the nest, whack it down with a machete and then escape the hornets by swimming away underwater.

Things did not go as planned. I whacked down the nest dropping it into the water, so far so good. Then I remember, as I swam away under the water, I looked up and just above the water were angry hornets everywhere waiting for me to come up. After about busting my lungs I gulped some air and proceeded even farther down the river waiting for my prize to float to me. To my disappointment the water had begun to dissolve the nest and made it useless as a trophy.

Dan and I had a short phone conversation several hours after my last article hit the Internet and it may well lead to yet another marathon telephone conversation in the future. I have been learning a lot from Ron Pandolfi and Dan Smith but I also hope they are learning from me. In the short conversation Dan made if very clear to me that it was Ron’s way or the highway. I assume he got a scolding from Ron for not being a better handler of Ed. This of course raises a whole other set of issues for Dan and I to discuss publicly and privately. J

I think that Ron and I have had enough of each other for awhile. J The past three weeks with Dan and Ron have been quite a ride and I appreciate Ron giving me a glimpse into his trickster world of spy craft and intrigue. The curtain on this episode of the R&D show is about to fall. This scene ends with the tricking of the trickster. Dan is right, the trickster is part of the divine, the more genteel face of Kali or Shiva the destroyer of worlds. The trickster or fool is the first card in the tarot deck and represents the beginning of the journey to enlightenment which ends with the world card and the completion of the circuit of understanding.

In order to understand Ron and his world I had to allow myself to be played as the fool and learn the lessons one by one in Ron’s deck of tricks as he presented them to me directly and through Dan. It may just now be sinking into Ron’s psyche that Ed did not screw up but that Ed tricked the trickster completing the learning circuit to exit the learning feedback loop. Ed shined the spotlight not only on Steven Greer as Ron would have him do but Ed also shined the spotlight of truth on Ron and his activities in the UFO/ET community. All is not as it seems in the R&D show because in a strange perverted way in R&D's Alice in Wonderland world, Dan is indeed Ron’s teacher and Messiah.

I would be much more concerned about Ron’s mental health and all the other Rons out there in the world in positions of power than I would of Dan. It is the tricksters, the fools of the world that have brought our world to the brink of destruction and onto the path to the worst of all worlds. It is up to us that have made the journey through the tarot deck to guide ourselves back on the path to the best possible world for ourselves, our families and all of humanity.

Ron would have me play by only his rules and I can’t do that, no more than I can accept the current status quo played on to the rest of us by the current foolish deluded leaders of this planet. In a sense all of humanity is moving through the tarot deck but things are not as they seem and one day the meek will complete the learning circuit and will inherit the earth while the arrogant and powerful will stumble and fall. So we should not be afraid or embarrassed to be taken for fools for in the end we will gain the world.

I am sure I am not the first in the civilian UFO/ET community to have to confront these issues being presented and I am sure I won’t be the last. In government and the military these may be the rules of the road for those who live by their paychecks. On the other hand most of us in the civilian sector work in the UFO field not for a paycheck but for ourselves and for humanity. We are pretty darn independent. In fact it costs us quite considerable amounts of money to be serious players in the field and stay independent.

I don’t think the idea of my way or the highway is getting or is going to get much traction or support in the civilian UFO/ET sector. Besides more than one big fish in the sea is rising to the surface to liaison with us surface dwellers as disclosure proceeds and more power is transferred back into the public domain relating to these issues.
