(Omal uses the record El Niño taking place in 1997 as an analogy for the future should society break down for all the comparisons that could be drawn from that event. We go over the other threats to global stability taking place and come up with ideas on weathering the storm so to say.)

Omal: okay now let us take a few steps back and look at Tia’s predictions.....

Russ: alright.

Omal: and how it affects the development and growth. Remember what Tia said about environmental factors being a part of the calculations.

Russ: correct.

Omal: if this happens and that happens this will happen. For example, great deluges of rain. If you look around in your local area, what do you see?

Russ: great deluges of rain which is why I brought this paper tonight.

Omal: okay let us, before you get to the newspaper….

Russ: okay.

Omal: go and take that a little further with current facts that are happening.

Russ: okay.

Omal: okay now, after the deluge of rain what happens?

Russ: a rainbow.

Omal: no.

Russ: oh floods.

Omal: which in turn did what?

Russ: melted all the snow that we had and caused a breakdown on Highway 50 which caused the lack of business in town which has caused many layoffs and cut back in hours.

Omal: correct, and in turn, what does that do?

Russ: economically depresses our economy.

Omal: which in turn does what?

Russ: strains and stresses everybody around us.

Omal: which in turn does what?

Russ: makes us work harder on our shields and work harder on keeping ourselves happy and in a positive frame of mind.

Omal: okay now you almost had the next logical step.

Russ: God dang.

Omal: very close, very close. Yes there is a lot of stress and strain, yes there is a lot of practice necessary for the shields but if you look closer at the cause of the necessary stresses and strains that are testing your shields, what is happening? You have the individuals that are being made redundant from their……..no that was a bad choice in words……being temporarily set aside because of the lack of financial flow into the area.

Russ: correct.

Omal: what about those individuals, what are they going to do?

Russ: well they’re going to panic......

Omal: uh-huh.

Russ: because they have many bills and many responsibilities and they have been counting on as this, especially people at Heavenly and the casinos, as being their one main source of income.

Omal: uh-huh.

Russ: so with that panic, they’ll be either moving away….

Omal: uh-huh.

Russ: or well I’d like to say is resort to criminal elements but I don’t think they’ll do that.

Omal: don’t underestimate that.

Russ: hmm.

Omal: now with that assumption and that information…..

Russ: uh-huh.

Omal: let us look closer at the picture. We have the big picture……

Russ: uh-huh.

Omal: people moving away......

Russ: right.

Omal: people resorting to crime........

Russ: right.

Omal: now, what does this look like?

Russ: it looks like a smaller version of what we’re looking at in the future.

Omal: correct, so what would be the natural assumption or the thing to do for you in this current situation?

Russ: naturally we'd use it as a testing ground, as a sample of what we’ve learned and put together as a trial phase for what the big picture's going to happen.

Omal: good, exactly.

Russ: thank you Omal.

Omal: next time I do that I will say, “let me lead you down the path.”

(Russ laughs)

Russ: all right.

Omal: now to your newspaper.

Russ: ahh yes okay. All right here we go, as we’re talking about the photon cloud and its various effects upon the environment weather wise. We have 68 killed in Brazil as flood drives 34,000 from their homes. They got a month’s worth of rain in a week.

Omal: uh-huh.

Russ: oh here’s a new one I didn’t read, parasitic illnesses doom 65,000, millions affected in Latin America. 65,000 are in the terminal stage and will die soon......late stages of Chagas disease………..what? That’s a new one. Okay Tokyo, wind and waves prevent cleanup. Europe suffers through deadly series of storms.

Omal: uh-huh.

Russ: of course our place here, massive flooding, cleanup continues. That looks like about it but that covers large portions of the Earth here we're talking about.

Omal: exactly.

Russ: Brazil has flood and Latin America has parasites.

Omal: uh-huh and Europe has killer storms.

Russ: and Europe has killer storms right. Now I mean the storms obviously are as I mentioned in my letter to this guy, part of the photonic belt affecting the Earth’s atmosphere.

Omal: uh-huh.

Russ: and so with that we are seeing actual changes….

Omal: physical evidence.

Russ: physical evidence. Now how do the parasites come into this though, is that just a natural occurrence then I take it?

Omal: it is probably just a natural occurrence or it could be the fact that people have moved into areas that in the past were not that heavily inhabited.

Russ: hmmm.

Omal: with the expansion of the population and people moving into areas that in the past they had not naturally lived in and probably for good reason.

Russ: yeah it’s possible that these parasites, their natural enemies have probably been killed by the destruction of a lot of the rain forest.

Omal: and these people moving into the area does not help the matter.

Russ: no.

Omal: so there is a very good lesson and point.

Russ: and also it points out to the fact that well, what kind of problems is Latin America going to start through because of this?

Omal: correct.

Russ: millions affected, 65,000 terminal?

Omal: uh-huh.

Russ: I mean people are going to be in a panic down there in a hard way.

Omal: yes.

Russ: I mean that’s worse than the AIDS epidemic right there….

Omal: uh-huh.

Russ: by a long shot.

Omal: certainly.

Russ: so we’re seeing this…..a good idea is to probably keep an eye on the news more.

Omal: yes.

Russ: and watch where…..because I didn’t even see this until I happened to look upon this accidentally.

Omal: uh-huh.

Russ: but it has a lot to do with what’s going on in the world, what we're talking about.

Omal: correct.

Russ: the little picture, all these little pictures…….

Omal: uh-huh.

Russ: I mean Europe, deadly series of storms in Europe, floods in Brazil, Tahoe, North Coast, everywhere, these little pictures all put together are what’s forming the big picture.

Omal: and in turn that affects the environmental area. Now let us look at the recent flooding in your Central Valley.

Russ: okay.

Omal: okay, how is that going to affect your country?

Russ: well wine prices are going to go up.

Omal: think seriously.

Russ: a lot of crop damage, a lot of economic hardships that are affecting people who come up here.......

Omal: uh-huh.

Russ: and will be probably affected secondary to this in ways that we can’t see just yet.

Omal: okay now let us look at the Central Valley, what goes on in the Central Valley?

Russ: lots of agriculture.

Omal: what has happened in the Central Valley?

Russ: lots of flooding.

Omal: so, on a country scale, how is that going to affect?

Russ: well we’ve got a lot of redundant systems built in to take care of problems like this…..

Omal: uh-huh.

Russ: Florida, Texas, things like that.

Omal: Texas is going through the same problem at the moment that you are.

Russ: oh are they?

Omal: they are having temperatures........for the first time in six years it snowed in San Antonio Texas.

Russ: wow. So a lot of the factors that Tia is predicting are caused not just by financial problems but ecological problems also.

Omal: yes but the ecological problems…..

Russ: are causing financial problems.

Omal: exactly.

Russ: right, so it’s all tied together.

Omal: correct.

Russ: and can we blame this on the photon cloud as much as it would be nice and handy to?

Omal: look for a scapegoat is your answer.

Russ: no, I already know that a lot of this is just due to the fact that it has to happen, this is what our planet is going through. I mean, it could’ve happened any number of ways.

Omal: yes.

Russ: okay it didn’t have to be the photon cloud, it could have been an earthquake knocks off California into the ocean, many different factors involved but all of them still are going to be pointing in the same direction.

Omal: okay now let us look at this abode, moving in closer on the picture in one little tiny dot in the picture.

Russ: okay.

Omal: how is your preparation going?

Russ: well the space is ready.

Omal: uh-huh.

Russ: we’ve got stuff dried.

Omal: how long will that last?

Russ: oh what we have currently?

Omal: the food.

Russ: a pretty weak amount of food.

Omal: about a week?

Russ: yeah, that’s pushing it.

Omal: uh-huh.

Russ: so basically what it needs to be is a lot more.

Omal: yes. Your heating material, you have plenty of that I assume?

Russ: wood?

Omal: enough to get you through the winter.

Russ: oh yeah. Actually without heat, no it wouldn’t be enough to get through the winter. If our heat got cut off, we couldn’t at last a winter on what we’ve got down there.

Omal: okay.

Russ: we went through three cords of wood that first winter and we had electric heaters up here.

Omal: uh-huh.

Russ: so odds are no, we would need a lot more. We would need to fill that garage up with wood to get us a decent amount of........

Omal: maybe it is time to buy a gasoline powered cutting instrument?

Russ: that’s true, what about a generator?

Omal: generator, I believe you would have to talk to Tia on some research that was done by Mark.

Russ: okay. So like a chainsaw……

Omal: uh-huh.

Russ: yeah good call, it’s a good investment. I didn’t put that in our list.

Omal: you might even consider buying a small trailer for your containable, combustible wheel drive mobile.

(a Jeep)

Russ: yeah, carry the wood around. So, we seriously need a more stepped-up amount of….

Omal: yes.

Russ: activity due to the fact that we are seeing more stepped-up financial and economic……

Omal: now Tia has brought something to my attention.

Russ: okay.

Omal: with the current situation in your area, as a test, what should you do?

Russ: hmm, that’s a good question. Go without anything from the stores, turn down the heat, cut down as much electricity usage as possible and try to get by as a sample of what it would be like without the necessary luxuries that we're afforded right now?

Omal: it would be best to discuss it with Tia in what she has in mind.

Russ: okay, that’ll work.

Omal: now as it is getting ready to turn over to the opposite side…..

Russ: I assume that means you're going to be departing us then.

Omal: correct.

Russ: well thank you Omal. God Omal, I mean thank you just never covers it but thank you.

Omal: you’re welcome, one day do the same, that is thanks enough.

Russ: I will certainly do my best.

Omal: or help someone that needs help but be careful in who you choose that needs help.

Russ: correct.
