                 (Leonedies comes on
                        a crucial point in the conference where the
                        forum for all the channels to meet was no longer
                        available. He goes other options with us
                        including a face-to-face conference. One
                        obstacle to that was the possible prejudices
                        that might pop up between races which he
                        attributed to being common among all third
                        dimensional races.)
 
 
 Leonedies:
                                  greetings and felicitations and
                                  welcome. Okay, we’re getting down to
                                  business and we’re starting
                                  discussions and looking at personnel
                                  possibly happening soon for the
                                  upcoming discussions leading to the
                                  conferences. I am making myself
                                  available at this time again to be
                                  able to answer questions in a way that
                                  will facilitate a beginning to the
                                  discussions necessary for the lead up
                                  to the conferences. Okay, let me
                                  answer questions.
 
 Russ: okay, the gentleman who will be
                                  coming and representing Sirius for
                                  these conferences has been narrowed
                                  down to I believe it's three
                                  candidates?
 
 Leonedies: four.
 
 Russ: four candidates.
 
 Leonedies: first of all, may I correct
                                  you in saying gentleman is an
                                  incorrect assumption.
 
 Russ: oh correct.
 
 Leonedies: it could be either.
 
 Russ: my mistake. And the parameters
                                  that you are currently looking for is
                                  someone who could have an unbiased
                                  view of our planet and its history and
                                  the people upon it correct?
 
 Leonedies: correct.
 
 Russ: okay.
 
 Leonedies: or rather having the
                                  knowledge of your planet’s history
                                  would be detrimental for the
                                  individual that we're looking at.
 
 Russ: okay.
 
 Skip: can I ask a question?
 
 Russ: sure.
 
 Skip: have you came up with any
                                  candidates from this planet yet?
 
 Leonedies: that is something that you
                                  would have to discuss amongst
                                  yourselves and search amongst
                                  yourselves. I believe you're looking
                                  for a group of individuals
                                  approximately anywhere from 4 to 8
                                  individuals, is that correct?
 
 Russ: correct.
 
 Leah: okay, those individuals I
                                  believe will make themselves possible
                                  candidates or individuals will make
                                  themselves available as possible
                                  candidates that will be agreed upon by
                                  everybody else that is involved in the
                                  discussions being from your planet,
                                  not from other species.
 
 Russ: right, the other channels for
                                  the species.
 
 Skip: oh, oh, oh, I see what you’re
                                  saying okay. In other words, we have
                                  to get in contact with these other
                                  people......
 
 Russ: that’s what we’re doing
                                  currently right.
 
 Skip: and start fathoming this thing
                                  out.
 
 Russ: but what he’s discussing now is
                                  the candidate from Sirius who will be
                                  representing Sirius in these
                                  discussions.
 
 Leonedies: a person that might be
                                  beneficial for your planet that has a
                                  linguistic skill and capable of aiding
                                  in this may be was the young lady
                                  present last week.
 
 Russ: hmm, I hadn’t thought of that.
 
 Skip: hmmm.
 
 Leonedies: there is one representative
                                  from your planet, now to find others.
 
 Skip: oh yeah.
 
 Russ: not an easy calling.
 
 Skip: that’s not a……..
 
 Russ: okay now, are there questions
                                  you’d like to ask us to assist in your
                                  choosing?
 
 Leonedies: we have all the information
                                  that we have gathered necessary for
                                  our decision, the only question that I
                                  would have that would be worth asking
                                  is that a strong linguistic capability
                                  and not just one language would be
                                  beneficial correct? Or the ability to
                                  learn many languages would be
                                  beneficial?
 
 Russ: correct but strong in English
                                  would be the best bet so primary
                                  English, secondary and trinary
                                  something else.
 
 Leonedies: okay now what form of
                                  English would this be?
 
 Russ: this would be standard, I would
                                  say American English due to the…..
 
 Skip: I would say American slang
                                  English, yeah.
 
 Russ: it’s been the most common
                                  throughout our planet right now as far
                                  as its use and availability to all the
                                  inhabitants of the planet and the
                                  Internet.
 
 Leonedies: okay that is the only
                                  question that will serve any function
                                  that I would ask.
 
 Russ: so really our questions wouldn't
                                  have any effect whatsoever upon your
                                  decision so….
 
 Leonedies: not at this time.
 
 Russ: I’m not really quite sure of
                                  what I would ask anyway.
 
 Leah: I am available to answer
                                  questions in regards to the setup and
                                  upcoming discussions.
 
 Russ: okay, excellent. We’re
                                  discussing currently a slight hitch
                                  we’ve run into as far as our medium
                                  for exchanging information among the
                                  inhabitants of our planet. The current
                                  mode of transfer of that information
                                  was an Internet site called Spirit
                                  Web.....
 
 Leonedies: I am aware.
 
 Russ: which has now changed their
                                  format to make it much more obnoxious
                                  and….
 
 Leonedies: obnoxious is an incorrect
                                  use of…..
 
 Skip: irritating, irritating.
 
 Leonedies: irritating is acceptable.
                                  Obnoxious is a reference to a gaseous
                                  substance that smells.
 
 Skip: it’s just irritating that’s all.
 
 Russ: as such, a idea on how we could
                                  bring about a change in this would be
                                  of course voicing our opinion,
                                  anything on your end?
 
 Leonedies: that is something I cannot
                                  get in involved with but it is
                                  something that needs to be rectified
                                  and remedied. Another option is
                                  something that my mother says QCI?
 
 Russ: ICQ.
 
 Leonedies: something like that.
 
 Russ: yeah, instant message. Hmmm…well
                                  ICQ chat? That might work. It’s
                                  similar to Spirit Web except it’s in a
                                  chat frequency allowing only certain
                                  numbers of people in that are allowed
                                  in. So therefore all channels could be
                                  brought in and chat among ICQ chat,
                                  the conversations could then be
                                  distributed from that point because
                                  all that text would be saved to
                                  archive.
 
 Leonedies: that is correct.
 
 Russ: that’s a possibility I hadn’t
                                  thought of.
 
 Skip: uh-huh.
 
 Russ: you can put lovely letters in
                                  there too and nice colors and
                                  everything. Okay thank you, that’s a
                                  good…
 
 Leonedies: I believe a different color
                                  for each species but each species will
                                  select its own different color and
                                  particular time once conversations
                                  start commencing for the preparation
                                  for the conferences.
 
 Skip: one question Daniel….
 
 Leonedies: uh-huh.
 
 Skip: have you selected a site where
                                  these conferences are going to be
                                  taking place?
 
 Leonedies: we were hoping a discussion
                                  through your Internet forum.
 
 Russ: we're hoping Spirit Web.
 
 Skip: okay.
 
 Russ: okay and so in the
                                  meantime.......but here’s the other
                                  point is that’s one idea and the ICQ
                                  chat and then distribute it on Spirit
                                  Web is another.
 
 Skip: is this eventually going to come
                                  down to face-to-face people in a
                                  conference area or is this always
                                  going to continue by.....
 
 Leonedies: the Internet medium or a
                                  communication, electronic medium?
 
 Skip: yeah.
 
 Leonedies: eventually it would be
                                  ideal if all species were face-to-face
                                  but that is something that, using the
                                  Sirian problem, is not a immediate
                                  problem. It is something that will
                                  take place at the appropriate time.
                                  The appropriate time is an
                                  indeterminate time at this point. When
                                  all races feel equally comfortable and
                                  do not have a problem with the
                                  appearances of other races. There are
                                  certain races that have a problem
                                  where the other race appears repulsive
                                  to another race, then that would be
                                  the time to meet face-to-face but in
                                  the meantime we have to use a faceless
                                  communication method through your
                                  medium of the Internet. Ideally it
                                  would be suitable and ideal to speed
                                  up the process would be to have it
                                  face-to-face but unfortunately because
                                  of certain natures and personalities
                                  and functions and appearances and
                                  beliefs, that cannot happen at the
                                  moment. There are a few races that do
                                  have problems with the appearance of
                                  other races so that in itself is a
                                  problem that will be eventually
                                  addressed and remedied.
 
 Skip: in other words what you don’t
                                  understand you fear.
 
 Leonedies: exactly.
 
 Skip: I can't believe that.
 
 Leonedies: it seems to be a problem of
                                  the third dimensional species overall,
                                  not just the human species but all
                                  species that has that same root cause.
 
 Skip: yeah, I can believe that, I can
                                  see that, I can understand.
 
 Leonedies: uh-huh. Okay more
                                  questions?
 
 Skip: no, not for me.
 
 Russ: nor me.
 
 Leonedies: okay thank you.
 
 Skip: thank you.
 
 Russ: thank you Daniel.
 
 Leonedies: and oh, Leonedies or Daniel
                                  works either way. For your web
                                  reference, it's best to be Daniel.
 
 Russ: right, that's what I figured
                                  we're using for the tape here.
 
 Leonedies: okay.
 
 Skip: yeah right, thank you.
