(Alana relates how the dolphins reacted to the ski racers visiting the beach, worries about an earth dolphin that was shot and confirms that whales are indigenous to Earth. There are whale-like species while orcas on the other hand are hybrids.)

Russ: and hello Alana.

Alana: hey, how's it going?

Russ: going good my love, how are you doing?

Alana: oh I'm all right.

Russ: did you go watch the races?

Alana: yeah I enjoyed it.

Russ: yeah?

Alana: I thought it was funny with all the cats milling around.

(the base's cat population gathered at one point to watch the races)

Russ: yeah that was a pretty good story, I liked that one.

Alana: uh-huh, yes they apparently reserved themselves a whole section in the seating.

Russ: how'd the dolphins love the attention from all the various racers all hanging out on the beaches?

Alana: well they enjoyed watching them sunbathing and being fed by hand and swimming with them and some of the young children that were there they let them ride around on their back, they enjoyed themselves tremendously.

Russ: oh wonderful, good. A good time was had by all.

Alana: oh yes, certainly. The only complaints that the dolphins had was that a certain group of Sirians that decided to keep their white wine cooled in their favorite area, their favorite watching area. They didn't like that at all.

Russ: I can imagine.

Alana: and they couldn't flick them out of the water properly because they were concerned about breaking the bottles so they stole them.

Russ: (laughs)

Alana: took them to the far end of the lake and then made the Sirians that had left them there go and fetch them from the far end. Made one person late for his race actually.

Russ: serves them right.

Alana: uh-huh.

Russ: okay, has your mom given any updates about our latest work with Norway?

Alana: yes some, some but I've not been at my peak.

Russ: I'm sorry to hear that.

Alana: oh that's quite all right.

Russ: kind of under the weather are you?

Alana: just a tad.

Russ: oh, okay. No we have a particular dolphin who seems to be hanging around a particular I guess port or....

Alana: oh yes, mother did tell me.

Russ: right and near my...

Alana: uh-huh, she cried.

Russ: yeah because it had been shot at and had some bullet wounds and stuff.

Alana: I cried.

Russ: I don't blame you.

Alana: see if you can get a physical address from this person and I will give you a recipe to send to him.

Russ: okay.

Alana: okay?

Russ: well they call him Flipper.

Alana: oh very original......

Russ: that's what he said.

Alana: very original.

Russ: and what he's been asked to write a little thing about Flipper to....

Alana: okay let's address this matter at hand as we have limited time to deal with it.

Russ: okay.

Alana: okay, first of all is, what he should do is go to his nearest store and....no first of all he should contact a research Institute of oceanographics. Get some antibiotics for the dolphin, general well-being antibiotics to make it feel better. Then go and buy a whole salmon as it probably likes salmon, hence the reason why the fishermen have been shooting at it. On the inside, smear the antibiotics on the inside and give it to quote unquote, Flipper. What a name.

Russ: hey, they're from Norway okay?

Alana: okay, when he contacts a oceanographic research institute, send a copy of his letter that he writes to them to the local newspaper.

Russ: okay.

Alana: about saying how concerned he is about the dolphin. Also send a letter to a local newspaper, another one, talking about how great it is to have a dolphin in the area and how saddening it is to see that it's being shot at by the local fishermen and he understands the fact that their local fishermen are concerned that he's eating their fish. But also point out that he's keeping away other predatory animals such as sharks.

Russ: okay.

Alana: and the fact that the potential of having a dolphin there is a useful tool for the fishermen to take tourists out to go fishing and also to meet the dolphin.

Russ: yeah, I've suggested that.

Alana: uh-huh.

Russ: now his question is, why is the dolphin there?

Alana: it has a purpose. Without me talking to the dolphin it's hard to tell. Without.....wait a second, can you get a description of the dolphin?

Russ: yeah sure, that's easy.

Alana: uh-huh, if it's a bluish color with white stripes especially kind of the Egyptian type stripes on the eyes right?

Russ: (writes in my notepad) bluish with white stripes....

Alana: by the eyes, the Egyptian type. And if it has a slightly crooked fin, I think you might know who it is.

Russ: .....eyes and crooked fin. Why would I know who it is?

Alana: remember the one that we returned?

(from the mission to bring a willing pod of third dimensional dolphins to the base I had helped complete)

Russ: oh yeah, right.

Alana: uh-huh.

Russ: I thought we got that out of the Pacific.

Alana: uh-huh.

Russ: well this is in Norway.

Alana: uh-huh.

Russ: where did you guys return it to?

Alana: we returned it to the exact location but that doesn't mean to say that it hasn't gone off elsewhere. Maybe its time up here served a purpose? I'm thinking that it was up here for a reason. I'm thinking that this Flipper has a very, very important part to play on your planet, especially in the country of Norway.

Russ: well let me get a description on this little guy and see what I find out some more about him.

Alana: uh-huh.

Russ: interesting, that would be very interesting.

Alana: yes it would be because if it is our dolphin and it is there, then the spirituality up here has rubbed off and it is trying to help the humans by drawing attention to its plight, it draws its attention to all dolphin's plight. Hmmm....ohh, my stomach's a little unsettled.

Russ: I'll work on that. Okay one last thing and then we're going to cut loose?

Alana: okay.

Russ: hmm, origination of whales.

Alana: origination of whales, they are actually indigenous to your planet.

Russ: they are, that's what I thought?

Alana: uh-huh.

Russ: Karra kind of gave me a little tip on that.

Alana: they are indigenous to your planet, orcas are and are not. Like the primates on your planet are related to you, like the original earthlings, not the Lemurians or the Atlanteans, the humanoid life form that was on your planet is related or similar to our species but not related because it's indigenous to your planet and we're indigenous to ours but there are similarities.

Russ: there's a mix.

Alana: uh-huh. Your current race is a mix of us and the original earthlings.

Russ: right, so are the orcas?

Alana: correct.

Russ: what other race are they mixed with what though?

Alana: there's a species of orca that was different. There are traces of it in the fossil record.

Russ: oh, but now it's smarter and.....

Alana: much smarter. Much more friendlier as well.

Russ: still as ferocious and predatory as its predecessor.

Alana: no, it's less ferocious.

Russ: I mean it has those same instincts.

Alana: yes but then they're much more....they won't hurt certain animals. Mainly land-based animals.

Russ: interesting.

Alana: uh-huh.

Russ: okay.

Alana: and they're not ferocious and predatory, they go for survival. Now the little groups that are ferocious and predatory that attack seals and so on are kind of nearer to the strain of the original indigenous inhabitants.

Russ: ahh, now I have trouble believing that whales are indigenous to our planet but not indigenous to anywhere else. They have to be spread out among the galaxy.

Alana: oh there are species and different types of whales spread out through the galaxy but your whales are solely, the blue whales, the right whales and so on, they're indigenous to your planet only. There are other whales or whale-like creatures that have no resemblance to your whales.

Russ: interesting.

Alana: they are more birdlike, their flippers are bigger, there are some planets that have huge creatures like that, there are some planets that have more dolphin-sized type whales that are more canine like, more like the dolphins.

Russ: interesting. I think we got a pretty special group on ours.

Alana pretty special group all over the place. Anyway.....

Russ: all right.

Alana: bye hon.

Russ: bye sweetheart.
