- Web bot runs, if you're new to this site, are an incredibly
interesting software project that a friend of mine cooked up, which has
a seeming knack for providing a glimpse into the future. Big assertion,
but when you read what the project has done so far, I think you'll be impressed.
Been working on it for 8-years now.
-
- Essentially, he scans a huge portion of the internet's
public discussion boards and resolves the conversations going on (in multiple
languages, by the way) in a huge pile of data going many gigabytes in length.
This is then "distilled" using an artificial intelligence language
(prolog) which throws out all comments which are past or present in tense.
What's left is a smaller pile of forward-looking sentences. These are then
refined and compared with previous scans of the web to get a pretty good
indication of how things "might" go.
-
- Cliff, who I'd describe as a programming genius, and
his young understudy Igor then spend hours and hours of laboriously going
through the data in a complex modelspace derived from prolog where different
word/meaning groups appear as "clouds" if you will with connections
between them, and from this they take what's usually a very good stab at
predicting the future. However, although the web bots are often spot on,
Cliff's careful to say that this is all for amusement and speculation and
that any changes you make in your life are on your dime - no warranty offered
on these glimpses into the future. More background here.
-
- A few people have asked me "Why it is called the
ALTA 406 run, if it was actually published in December 2005?" Glad
you asked. The numbers refer to the "center of the window" for
which the run was done. Hence, the ALTA 406 run is "centered"
of events around April '06, but will pick up things either side of center
- sort of like passband tuning of a high performance radio receiver. Except,
of course, the "passband" is three-dimensional, but you get the
idea. If you don't, just have more coffee and keep reading.
-
- So the immediate stuff on the horizon, safe to talk about
now because those of us who use the reports have had plenty of time to
get our trades in place and our lives adjusted to what seems likely to
come next, have a series of very short term expectations referring to the
the ALTA 106 and ALTA 406 reports which cover the present day. Short term,
we have the possibility of a highly impacting emotional event with the
passband "centered" around February 3rd.
-
- A number of readers have suggested that this might mean
something like a terrorist attack on the Super Bowl. But here's the rub.
The way web bot runs work is that we sense the "emotional" waves
that run through society in advance of significant events - something that
Dr. Dean Radin has demonstrated occurs in the lab a matter of 5-6 seconds
before an event, but which seems to happen as a subtle language shift long
(months in many cases) before the actual emotionally impacting events take
place.
-
- So how does February 3rd fit into this? Well, whatever
"it" is (and it may be nothing) it could be nothing more than
the emotional fear being expressed on a wide scale about the pending possibility
of a terrorist attack. Remember, that when looking into the future it's
damn tough to differentiate between a real physical event or an emotional
response.
- Show you what I mean. On July 2, 2003, we reported on
a then current ALTA report which predicted a "terrorist event"
for the August timeframe (2003). What we got was a nearly perfect description
of the Northeast Power Outage. (All documented here, if you're interested.)
While one might argue that we were incorrect in our forecast at the time,
because we viewed the event in terms of a terrorist attack, I would argue
that we got even that right because what was the first thing that went
through people's minds in the affected area? You got it: terrorist attack.
-
- And we keep getting better at the technology - although
we're all sort of making up this new science as we go along - it's not
the stuff of "normal" study even for mystical C (not C# or C++
folks, but the get down and dirty in the predicate calculus C) guys like
Cliff. For example, in the ALTA 406 report (as well as the 106) there are
lots of descriptors going to the idea of the West Virginia mine disaster
(January) and the echo of the event in February. You may have noticed that
the governor of West Virginia has shut down coal mining now because of
danger. No surprise to us there.
-
- So, could the technology have prevented 9/11? Who knows.
If you read the piece we published on July 29, 2001, you'll see that we
were looking for some kind of "military accident" going to the
idea of "sky" and some other words as forming a 2001 "tipping
point" which is is still interesting to read in retrospect. We mistakenly
looked for that because the word "terrorist" was not in the general
lexicon - so as we were waiting for the huge tipping point which was 9/11
we were framing it in pre-event terms, trying to find some precursor event
that would fit.
-
- We've got a few other caveats along the way: For example,
we seem to find that the size of the emotional impact determines how far
into the future we can "read" it. For small events, like the
accident involving a couple of athletes at the Olympics, it was a "small"
event so we were able to get only 4-5 days of lead time on it. yet, it
had enough emotional impact in regards to its short-term immediacy values
that we were able to pick it up.
-
- Although the descriptions of the future are sometimes
vague-sounding, when actual events happen (like the price of silver ascending
since we advised you of that in July 2005, and repeated throughout the
fall of last year) it's like a mind blowing event to realize that you actually
knew something about the future before it happened. We do get things wrong,
however. We had "13-million people walking North" out of the
"city sinking into the mud" instead of the 1.3-million out of
Hurricanes Katrina and Rita. Decimal points are a bitch. And, we were off
by a few thousands when we picked up the "300-thousand dead, land
driven back to a previous age" in August 2004, prior to the December
2004 Sumatra tsunami.
-
- Not to put too fine a point on it, but because those
of us who follow web bot predictive technology have had so much lead time,
here's a sample sentence or two from the December 10, 2005 ALTA 406 run
about silver - so you can watch what's coming: "Further that same
area of support sets contains, 'resistance remains at the core of the contracting
force'. This is further modified by 'contradicting/countering parties strongest
{in the} center'. However, the data also shows that the 'strong resistant
core of contradicting parties fails {to} persevere'. Note that this last
only comes in during the end of the progression of the modelspace through
the release period, say around February 15th or so, give or take 4 days.
The suggestion from the data explicitly is that a long, and newly favorable,
emotive association with the Silver entity's component precious metals
is beginning, but is still at the 'periphery' even into late February.
" (used with exclusive permission, not to be reposted without a link
to www.halfpasthuman.com Elaine and I have used the reports to great advantage.
We dollar cost averaged into silver in July of last year when silver started
to pop up in the reports. I even posted the information right here in front
of DHS and everybody so you could have gotten into silver around $7. But
I expect few did, after all, this is a wildly speculative adventure.
-
- Now, to the matter at hand today. The subscriptions are
open for ALTA 806. What about ALTA 606 - which would be a "normally
scheduled" run? Well, frankly, between the end of March and August
looks like a fine period of calm and business as usual. But oh my, August
brings a huge sea state shift. If you think about WW III breaking out,
or the collapse of the economy into pieces - it will be something of that
magnitude (both?) which was showing up in the 106 and 406 runs. So, Cliff
and Igor have zoomed into that period, and hope to have 806 posted as early
as Friday of this week.
-
- From here forward, I won't be saying too much about the
806 run. You already know that the web bots have forecast a shift from
a period of "militancy" (when Cindy Sheehan was demonstrating
at the Crawford White House). But now, we are about to swing into a period
of "conflict" - and to give you an idea of the emotional impact
on the country - think 100 times - yup, 100-times the emotional impact
of Katrina and Rita combined.
-
- Those who choose to subscribe will get the details, those
who don't at least have the heads up here for free that goes something
like this: Something wicked breaks out in late August to early September
and our best advice would be to be thoroughly prepared with food, medicines,
and so forth by say the middle of August. After that, the Universe will
decide if you'll be around for next Christmas or not - and the building
tensions will escalate through at least May 2007. Our karmic burden is
eased.
-
- OK, you're warned. ALTA 806 is not looking at all pleasant.

-
- It's a tough decision, to be sure. It goes to the philosophical
question "If you could see the time and manner of your own death,
would you choose to do so?"
-
- A lot of people don't want to know the future, even if
it's a general outline - or a sense of the flavor of the time. I have no
quarrel with that viewpoint, as it's a matter of choice. Or is it? That's
a long discussion too because we're finding that time isn't what most people
think it is - that's a book length topic for some other life. We choose
to pursue some general knowledge of the future for the simple reason that
chance favors the prepared mind. And we just may be nuts.
