Unraveling the Secrets
A journal of interconnecting facts

"Everything is interrelated"
Alexander von Humboldt (1769-1859)

You Can't Work With a Sore Peter

The voters have confirmed that the controllers choice for our next leader and the socialist agenda of the left is the needed change in direction they would like to see our country heading. That is of course if the outcome of our elections were not already programmed into the computer before we went in to use them. Many believe that to be the case. Either way the fact that we now have a governing body of folks who historical and factual have ties to the Illuminati's planned path to total control and the teachings of Wilhelm Wundt without a peep of concern from our fellow citizens is amazing to me. Wundt was a proponent of the Hegelian philosophical ideas and he used the Hegelian dialectic as his starting point i.e. "The State is superior to the Individual." He could also be called the father of our higher learning institutions including Yale. and Obama's educational institute, Harvard.
This major blatent shift towards this anti-individual freedom point of view and the inevitable future of the government taking control of every aspect of our lives only proves without a doubt that the takeover of public education, media and the nations monetary system during the last century has created the outcome the elitist had hoped for. It's quite obvious that the populace is ready to give up freedom in exchange for more governmental "protection" i.e. control over our lives. The late patriot
William Cooper hit the nail on the head when he started classifying most of the people of our republic as "sheeple." He based this on the fact that most of us were blindly following the "bad guys," unquestionably using their implanted misinformation as undisputed truth, down a path towards total destruction of individualism and the unique freedoms we as U.S. citizens enjoy. Well, the sheeple have spoken. The liberal left, or as they like to be called "the progressives," now control every part of our governing body except the supreme court. And that's not far away. So What's in store for us next ?

None Dare Call it Socialism

Actually we've already had a peek at things to come. It all started with Joe the Plummer. I'm sure that in the view of the controllers
Obama screwed up when he answered Joe's question regarding his idea of tax reform. Any fallout over the next president revealing that his true financial agenda would come straight from the plans put forth by Carl Marx in the Communist Manifesto "from each according to their means, to each according to their needs" - more popularly known as redistributing the wealth - was something the spin doctors would have rather not had to face at this time.
And as can be expected most of the mainstream press fell in line and chose to ignore the full impact of Obama's remarks, giving the controllers hope that the statement would not come under scrutiny. But . . .
Barbara West, a long time professional reporter and now the anchor at WFTV
in Florida asked Vice Presidential hopeful Biden the no-no question regarding their socialistic plan for the economy and about Obama's involvement with the ballot box stuffing crowd at Acorn. Immediately following the interview Joe got in touch with the Obama/Biden handlers and placed an order of censure on the "offending" TV station. Next it was a Philly TV stations anchor who asked the same questions along with a few other hard-hitting questions and Biden immediately had them locked out from future interviews also! Looks like the Democrats are using a page from an old Republican "Tricky" Dick Nixon playbook.

Lesson learned: Don't bring up this new administration's socialistic agenda or you'll be sorry.
The Obama camps next move was to
investigate Joe the Plummer! Who's next? Me? You?


Media censorship. Investigating private citizens who pick up the rocks and expose the snakes hidden underneath. . . . And this cabal is not even in power yet! Welcome to the remnents of the Republic our forefathers left us . . . Hence forward to be known as the New Marxist-Socialist Democracy of the United States.

Share the Wealth, nothing new in the U.S.

Actually the idea of sharing the wealth almost turned our country's ideology in an entirely different direction once before. It was way back during the depression of the 1930s. In fact the only thing that stopped this shift in idology from happening was a "lone assassin," with a cheap Saturday night special and a bullet. Later in this report we'll take a look at the original "share the wealth" plan and the man who envisioned it, the late Senator Huey P. Long of Loisuiana who, without a doubt, was the most controversial United States politician who ever lived.


But be it Huey Long's plan or Obama's the clearest description, and one that will immediately stop any argument in favor of the unworkable idea of redistributing the wealth was told to me many years ago;


"Sharing the wealth is actually robbing Peter to pay Paul. This would tend to make Peter mad. And, as everyone knows, you can't work with a sore Peter." . . . source forgotten.

Heerlen, Netherlands (AFP) Nov 11, 2008 - Disused for more than 30 years, a Dutch mine that once yielded polluting coal has been revived as a source of greener energy -- heating household radiators using warm water flooding its abandoned shafts.
Claimed by its originators to be the world's first such energy generator, the "Mine Water Project" in the south-western Limburg province went into operation last month, heating some 350 homes and businesses in a newly built neighborhood in Heerlen. .

In Search of Subterranean Secrets


Scholar finds Mayans' buried highway through hell
By MARK STEVENSON
TZIBICHEN CENOTE, Mexico (AP) - Legend says the afterlife for ancient Mayas was a terrifying obstacle course in which the dead had to traverse rivers of blood, and chambers full of sharp knives, bats and jaguars.
Now a Mexican archaeologist using long-forgotten testimony from the Spanish Inquisition says a series of caves he has explored may be the place where the Maya actually tried to depict this highway through hell.
The network of underground chambers, roads and temples beneath farmland and jungle on the Yucatan peninsula suggests the Maya fashioned them to mimic the journey to the underworld, or Xibalba, described in ancient mythological texts such as the Popol Vuh.

Geomagnetic navigation system for underground malls developed
Wednesday 12th November, 06:46 AM JST
NAGOYA
Aichi Steel Corp said Tuesday it has developed a navigation system employing a geomagnetic sensor that can provide location information and directions in underground shopping malls.
The system—comprising a geomagnetic sensor, an acceleration sensor and a microprocessor—can display current location and directions, even in underground shopping malls where radio waves for satellite-based global positioning systems cannot be received, according to the company, which belongs to a group of firms led by Toyota Motor Corp. Aichi Steel said it has begun selling a module incorporating the two sensors and the microprocessor as well as associated underground navigation software to cell phone manufacturers, adding it wants cellphone makers to release handsets incorporating the underground navigation system in the fall of 2009.

Who they kidding! What's the real reason for developing this underground navigational system? I mean just how many underground malls are there in the world? And of those how many are so large that people need a device in order to know where they are while in these malls? Most people would simple look at the mall map located throughout every mall I've ever been in and move on to their destination, Starbucks or wherever. My gut feeling is there is more to this device than sinply giving people a way to use their cell phones to find directions in underground malls. GET REAL, spin doctors!

DEA complicit in drug trade, says Morales
Agence France-Presse
Published: Thursday November 6, 2008
Morales says evidence will be presented to President Obama.
Bolivian leader Evo Morales on Thursday accused the US government of encouraging drug-trafficking as he explained his decision to banish the US Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA). Morales, a staunch opponent of the Washington government, said the staff from the US agency had three months to prepare to leave the country, because "the DEA did not respect the police, or even the (Bolivian) armed forces."

"The worst thing is, it did not fight drug trafficking; It encouraged it," the Bolivian leader said, adding that he had "quite a bit of evidence" backing up his charges. [continue]


Of course this is not new news by any means and tons of evidence has already been presented to government officials over the years. Bo Gritz first exposed the government's involvement in the importation of drugs into our country in his excellent 1991 autobiography, Called to Serve.

Shock waves around dusty, young stars might be creating the raw materials for planets, according to new observations from NASA's Spitzer Space Telescope.
The evidence comes in the form of tiny crystals. Spitzer detected crystals similar in make-up to quartz around young stars just beginning to form planets. The crystals, called cristobalite and tridymite, are known to reside in comets, in volcanic lava flows on Earth, and in some meteorites that land on Earth. [

WAS OBAMA BRIEFED ON ROSWELL?
By Anthony Bragalia

How are the Secrets of the Nation revealed to incoming presidents? Who reveals? What is said? Is everything told them? Briefing these secrets to the new Commander-In-Chief is in itself a necessarily veiled process. Precisely how it is done -and what is said- remains unknowable. We can surmise that details were related on matters of national security and on matters of international import. But does this intelligence briefing extend to intelligence on things cosmic? Is our new leader told that Man is not alone in the universe? Is he made aware that a craft from another world crashed in our country six decades ago? Does the new President know about Roswell? [

Republican Warns of Obama Dictatorship
WASHINGTON (Nov. 11) - A Republican congressman from Georgia said Monday he fears that President-elect Obama will establish a Gestapo-like security force to impose a Marxist dictatorship.
"It may sound a bit crazy and off base, but the thing is, he's the one who
proposed this national security force," Rep. Paul Broun said of Obama in an interview Monday with The Associated Press. "I'm just trying to bring attention to the fact that we may - may not, I hope not - but we may have a problem with that type of philosophy of radical socialism or Marxism."
"That's exactly what Hitler did in Nazi Germany and it's exactly what the Soviet Union did," Broun said. "When he's proposing to have a national security force that's answering to him, that is as strong as the U.S. military, he's showing me signs of being Marxist." [

Dems Target Private Retirement Accounts
By Karen McMahan
Democrats in the U.S. House have been conducting hearings on proposals to confiscate workers' personal retirement accounts -including 401(k)s and IRAs - and convert them to accounts managed by the Social Security Administration
Triggered by the financial crisis the past two months, the hearings reportedly were meant to stem losses incurred by many workers and retirees whose 401(k) and IRA balances have been shrinking rapidly. The testimony of Teresa Ghilarducci, professor of economic policy analysis at the New School for Social Research in New York, in hearings Oct. 7 drew the most attention and criticism. Testifying for the House Committee on Education and Labor, Ghilarducci proposed that the government eliminate tax breaks for 401(k) and similar retirement accounts, such as IRAs, and confiscate workers'[ retirement plan accounts and convert them to universal Guaranteed Retirement Accounts (GRAs) managed by the Social Security Administration.

Looking Thru the Rear View Mirror
Huey Long & The Original "Share the Wealth" Plan


In this time of living green I think that recycling is very important and I like to do my share. With that thought in mind I'm re-issuing this report that I wrote for my History in Perspective column which ran during the 1990s in the Nassau Observer (Yulee, Florida) newspaper. This article was published in December 1995. (Sorry I can't give you an exact date. It isn't on the news clipping I am copying from and the newspaper is no longer in existence).

And I will confess. The real reason I'm using it instead of writng a new report is it gives me a chance to insert the report into this archive. And besides . . . This article is not dated a bit. The problems of 12 years ago remain. And that's the shame of it all!

Anyway . . .

The Kingfisher & HIS Share the Wealth Plan:
Every Man a King!
(c) 1995 by Dennis G. Crenshaw




Welcome to a new year! For most of us the first unpleasant task of 1996 will be compiling and submitting our income tax returns. However, a growing segment of Americans are unhappy with the current tax system and the intrusive tactics of the Internal Revenue Service. In fact, if past history is repeated, millions of Americans will ignore and refuse to comply with this "voluntary compliance" all together.
1996 is also an election year and the politico hopefuls are well aware of the problems this non-compliance is causing to the financial well being of our country. Each one has his own idea of how to fix the problem. Some believe we need a "flat tax" where everyone pays a fixed percentage of his income - with or without certain deductions. Another popular idea is a National Sales Tax whereas taxes are collected at the retail level instead of income deductions. Proponents of the sales tax approach argue that this would encourage people to save and invest as taxes would become due only when you bought consumer products or services. Whatever their stand, each individual politician will try to convey to us that tax reform is a unique problem of the 90s. In reality, many politicians of the past have argued that the income tax system of America is not the answer to gathering the money needed to run our government and a few have even submitted their own plans to replace, or revise the system.
One such plan was put forth by Huey P. Long the powerful and flamboyant "Kingfisher" of Louisiana politics during the depression era. While I disagree vehemently with the late senator's plan,* I feel that the history and consequences of his proposal should be known to those who try to buck the system.
*
I support the fair tax.

Elected Governor of Louisiana in 1928, and then U.S. Senator in 1932, Huey Long was one of the most colorful politicians in the history of our country's politics. History books paint the picture of a greedy, corrupt demagogic governor who controlled the politics of his home state with an iron fist. While many of the things said about him are probably true, the "little people like me" as he liked to call his down-home constitutes loved him. By looking at his record and reading between the lines, it is possible to see the real source of the Kingfish's distorted image. As governor during a period of mass unemployment, Huey Long levied high taxes on the oil companies, in particular Standard Oil who was pumping Louisiana's oil out of the ground which, Long said belonged to the people of his state.. He then used the money collected to hire out-of-work people to build roads. While this upset John D. Rockefeller and the other oil barons, it brought much needed income into the state with the added benefit of giving Louisiana the best highway system in the south at the time. He also declared that since poor people couldn't afford a telephone in their homes and were dependent on pay phones, they shouldn't have to pay more than a nickel for a phone call. So he passed a law that the telephone company couldn't charge more than that in Louisiana. As late as the mid 1960s, while the rest of the country paid a dime to use a public phone, his state's residents only paid five cents. Needless to say these and other programs of social reform at the expense of the wealthy didn't go over well with those at the top.
In 1932, as a freshman senator, he formulated a tax program which he said would make "Every Man a King." By 1932 this plan had become a national crusade and thousands of people across America began to organize into groups known as the "Share Our Wealth Society." The Society's aim was to eventually challenge the two major parties and elect Huey P. Long as President.

In a February 1934 nationally broadcasted radio address the popular Louisiana Senator explained his plan.
EXCERPTS:
"We are in our third year of the Roosevelt depression, with the conditions growing worse . . . We must now become awakened! We must know the truth and speak the truth. There is no use to wait three years. It is not Roosevelt or ruin; it is Roosevelt's ruin.
"We ran Mr. Roosevelt for the Presidency of the United States because he promised to us by word of mouth and in writing;
1. That the size of the big man's fortune would be reduced so as to give the masses at the bottom enough to wipe out all poverty, and;
2. That the hours of labor would be so reduced that all would share in the work to be done and in consuming the abundance mankind produced . . . "
"When I saw him spending all his time of ease and recreation with the business partners of Mr. John D. Rockefeller Jr.; with such men as the Astor's etc. maybe I ought to have had better sense than to have believed he would ever breakdown their big fortunes to give enough to the masses to end poverty . . . Millions of other people were fooled along with myself.
"So therefore, I call upon the men and women of America to immediately join in our work and movement to share our wealth."

Senator Long then went on to lay out his plan. The first step was to be a capital levy. Under the plan, no American would be taxed on his first million earned. "But after you get rich you would have to start helping the balance of us." On the second million one man earned would be a levy of 1%. On the third 2%. On the fourth a tax of 4%. The fifth 8%. The sixth 16%. The seventh million would be taxed at 32% , the eighth 64% and anything over eight million would be taxed 100%.


As millions of Americans across the nation crowded around the radio the Kingfish explained his plan to the anxious depression-weary listeners;
" . . . the annual tax would bring the largest fortune down to $3 or $4 million dollars . . . [This is] enough for any one person and his children and his children's children. We cannot allow one to have more that that because it would not leave enough for the balance to have something."
His plan also included the provision that "a person could only inherit $1 million in any one year - a guarantee of food, housing and clothing for everyone that worked. Free education for anyone who wanted it and a pension to all persons above sixty years in an amount sufficient to support them in comfortable circumstances" except those who could afford to pay their own way.
He believed that "by limiting the size of fortunes and incomes of "the big men"we will throw into the government Treasury the money from which we will care for the millions of people who have nothing." The plan also called for granting a "
moratorium on all debts which people owe that they cannot pay."
He ended his national radio address with;
"Now you have our plan, none too big, none too small, but every man a king.
"All the people of America have been invited to a barbeque. God invited us all to come and eat and drink all we wanted. He smiled on our land and we grew crops of plenty to eat and wear. He showed us in the earth the iron and other things needed to make everything we wanted. He unfolded to us the secrets of science so that our work would be easy. God called, "Come to my feast."
"Then what happened? Rockefeller, Morgan and their crowd stepped up and took enough for 120 million people and left enough for 5 million to be divided between the other 125 million to eat. Now so many millions must go hungry and without these good things that God gave us unless we call them to put some of it back."

Share Our wealth clubs sprang up all across America. In a time of nothing but bad news what the ol' Kingfish said made sense. "And hadn't he fought Standard Oil and Maw Bell and won?" Huey Long had the controllers worried. His power was growing to fast and too wide. At the height of his power, and almost assured of winning the popular vote for president, Huey Pierce Long was gunned down on September 17, 1935 in a corridor of the Louisiana capital building in Baton Rouge by a "lone assassin."

THE HOLLOW EARTH INSIDER
Research Report

WORLD WIDE WEB EDITION

Unraveling the Secrets
A journal of interconnecting facts

Front Page

'Zines blazed the path that led to the Information Highway.


It's 95 % certain that you came to be reading this report because of my post on the internet at a "tribe" or "group" site such is found at http://www.groups.yahoo.com/. Today you can find a group of world-wide people interested in almost any subject your mind can conjure up on the web. But what about before computers - how was special information spread to interested people?


Before the days of computers and cable television what we call the mainstream media was the only source of information and news available to most of us. If your interests lay outside of the main it was almost impossible to find information about your subject except by spending many hours in the library doing research or buying books from small independent distributors and writers.


However, there was one small group of dedicated folks who filled the need of gathering, cataloguing and passing along occult knowledge or special interest information. These dedicated people, usually working alone or in very small groups, would compile the information they gathered into a newsletter of sorts and mail copies out to their lists of other people with the same interests. The ones who maintained the lists kept their subscribers informed with up-to-date information and passed along the others members contributions. They were actually the first group 'moderators'. The lists were usually compiled one person at a time mainly from word-of-mouth spread by those already receiving the publication to their friends and colleges. Needless to say, most of these lists were very small, and few people actually saw the work. But these small-run publications did have an impact - an impact that goes largely unnoticed.


Take, for instance, the first subject of interest that brought me into working with others in trying to unravel the secrets of our society, the Hollow Earth Theory. Back when I first begin looking into that subject information was almost impossible to find. In fact that was the main reason I started The Hollow Earth Insider Research Report in the early 90's. I felt the information was becoming lost and I wanted to pass along a permanent record of my personal research to other folks who might have an interest in the subject.


Today if you type "Hollow Earth" into your favorite search engine you'll get page after page of information. Yet before the World Wide Web the subject, along with many others, was only kept alive by those little homespun publications. Were it not for these self styled "groups" I feel the root material of much of the information found on the web might not be here.


In those days before computer composition everything was done by hand. Cut and paste was not a simple click of the mouse, it was the real thing. The layout for the publication was achieved with scissors and paste or tape. The main pieces of equipment were a typewriter, and if you were lucky a mimeograph machine. If not . . . you spent a lot of time and money at your local Copy Place or Office Depot. The work was usually done at the kitchen table or down in the basement in the wee hours of the morning after a full days work at a "day job" and on a non-existing budget. These short run publications were works of love as almost all the publishers made little or no money. But the goal was not to make money. The major goal was to compile and pass along the information you gathered. This helped future researchers from having to cover the same ground that had previously been explored.


These specialty publications usually went to a small list of dedicated fans, so they became know as fanzines, or, more popularly, just 'zines. The first fanzine of record, The Comet, was edited by our late friend Raymond A. Palmer beginning in May of 1930 and was devoted to science fiction, or Sci-Fi as it became known. Ray, who created many specialty magazines in the 50s 60s and 70s including the still published Fate magazine was once called "the man who invented flying saucers" by a frustrated Air Force officer. He also promoted the Shaver Mystery and is credited with bringing the Hollow Earth Theory out of the dark closet, so to speak.
In 1972-73 and then again in the mid 80's one such fanzine was compiled and sent out by Mary (Story) Martin. The 'zines name was The Hollow Hassle and it was dedicated to the study of the Hollow Earth Theory and the possibility of subterranean civilizations. Later in this report we'll interview Mary Martin on the eve of the publication of, The Best of The Hollow Earth Hassle in book form.

Rocket Scientists Say We'll Never Reach the Stars
By Robert Lemos

Many believe that humanity's destiny lies with the stars. Sadly for us, rocket propulsion experts now say we may never even get out of the Solar System.
At a recent conference, rocket scientists from NASA, the U.S. Air Force and academia doused humanity's interstellar dreams in cold reality. The scientists, presenting at the Joint Propulsion Conference in Hartford, Connecticut, analyzed many of the designs for advanced propulsion that others have proposed for interstellar travel. The calculations show that, even using the most theoretical of technologies, reaching the nearest star in a human lifetime is nearly impossible.
In those cases, you are talking about a scale of engineering that you can't even imagine," Paulo Lozano, an assistant professor of aeronautics and astronautics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and a conference attendee, said in a recent interview.
The major problem is that propulsion - shooting mass backwards to go forwards - requires large amounts of both time and fuel. For instance

Satellite shooting unneeded says scientist

The U.S. Navy's February missile shoot down of a spy satellite was unnecessary, a Harvard scientist and former NASA employee said.
Yousaf Butt filed a Freedom of Information Act request asking for the National Air and Space Agency's re-entry threat analysis from the disabled USA-193 satellite. His conclusions contradict the government's official explanation that the satellite's hydrazine fuel tank posed a health hazard.

During the UFO waves of the 1940s and '50s a new type of peculiar, possibly extraterrestrial or covert machine was mentioned, and often sighted in the murky oceans of the world. The USO, or Unidentified Submarine Object, just like the flying saucers and mystery airships of before, had begun to cause panic.
Were alien life forms monitoring our shores with their advanced technology and preparing for possible attack, or was the government conducting clandestine operations beneath the surface? Or was another country secretly invading and spying on us?

Alien Artwork - Zo's Artwork.

These pictures are an accumulation of firsthand descriptions, descriptions written in books, TV versions and drawings made by abductees shown in many UFO magazines and books. My Son Matt and I have always thought that nobody is getting their sketches and drawings quite right. We believe one has to know that the face we're all used to seeing on TV UFO Documentaries is not the real creature, in that the face is actually a nano-driven helmet connected to their suits. These militaristic suits and helmets have shapeshifting capabilities. Not magic. All technological.

We believe we have come the closest as to what these creatures really look like. When placing the helmet on their heads it is metallic looking and very smooth....... and looks like a helmet. However, as soon as they place it on it transforms from metal looking to looking like a real face... an alien face. Under this helmet they are even uglier. [Check 'um out]

Yes, you read the title correctly. We are not living in a country with a government of the people, by the people, for the people, but we are part of a giant Corporation, The United States Corporation, and the President of America is the CEO. We are only the employees. This Corporation, in its turn, is owned by another Corporation, The British Crown.

"Hey, wait a minute! First of all, America is not owned by Great Britain," you may way. "That's what the War of Independence was all about; to free ourselves from British tyranny. We are free from Britain and we have our own Constitution. Our Founding Fathers helped out with that!"

Information that's available again:
The Hollow Hassle a Fanzine of Possibilities for Tomorrow and Yesterday


An Exclusive Interview with Mary Martin, editor and publisher of The Hollow Hassle


Mary Martin, with the editorial help of Wm. Michael Mott author of Caverns, Cauldrons and Concealed Creatures has teamed up with Timothy Beckley of Global Communications to compile the best of her longtime unavailable newsletters into a new book, appropriately titled, The Best of The Hollow Earth Hassle. Once again the information she put together back 'in the good old days' will be available for a whole new generation of readers. But more important than that it will give those who were not there for the great age of fanzines an idea of the look and feel of this no-longer available, but always enjoyable, source of occulted information. As a bonus for skeptics, they can try to find information today that contradicts the information presented back then and destroy the whole ridiculous idea of a Hollow Earth. I wish them luck.

In anticipation of the release of this important piece of history I had a long telephone conversation with Mary Martin. The following is from that interview.
Hi, Mary. Congratulations on getting The Best of the Hollow Earth Hassle put together. I know it took some doing. How did you get involved in the fanzine business to start with?

I started out studying astrology around 1965 or so. I was involved in that a few years. From there, I must have been reading one of Ray Palmer's magazines, or somewhere that advertised, The Smokey God by Willis George Emerson . . . probably Fate magazine.

[Note: Read on line, or download, FREE e-book of The Smokey God].

Anyway, I don't know what made me want to read it because I didn't have a clue about Hollow Earth or Subterranean Civilizations, but I ordered it. And after reading it I was off and running. There was something inside of me that said, "This is a possibility . . . this could be true". From there my research went on to other books and sources of information.
Then around 1971 or so I was receiving the fanzine, Pole Watchers Magazine which contained research about the possibility of a polar shift. It was published by an elderly lady, Dorothy Starr. I wrote her and asked her if she had anyone on her list that was interested in the Hollow Earth Theory. She told me she had one . . . Tom LeVesque.
[Note: Tom LeVesque is better known as TAL by our regular readers and is a long time and valued contributing researcher for this publication. He frequently publishes his research and writings in his own 'place' on THEI, the very popular "TAL Zone". Many more of his research reports can be found other places on the internet besides THEI, such as this report on the Dulce Caverns and Pueblo Mythology].

Continuing with the interview:
So, Dorothy Starr put Tom and me in touch with each other through the mail. He lived in Gardena and I lived in West L.A. Eventually we got to meet in person, which would be about 1972. Our friendship soon developed into a relationship and he moved up to West L.A. with me. Later on we were married and moved to Alhambra. That was in 1973. And from there it was off to Tennessee and running all over the country.

So you guys mutual interest in the Hollow Earth brought you together and you ended up getting married?

Yes. Then in 1972 we decided to publishYe a newsletter on the subject which we named The Hollow Hassle because it was a hassle to find reliable information on the subject.
The original HH was published in 1972 and maybe into early 73. We put out 13 issues, mostly once a month. The information we included wasn't just about Hollow Earth, it was much like your Hollow Earth Insider and included other articles of interest also. Tom would put in things about pyramids and other stuff we felt our readers might be interested in. We really didn't have a large subscription list during the publication of this first Volume, but we enjoyed producing it and supplying interested people the information we were finding.
Was your distribution only to people in the United States or did you also send copies overseas?

Well, we were in touch with Brinsley Le Poer Trench [author of Secret of the Ages: UFOS from Inside Earth] and others in the UK. We were also in touch with the Hollow Earth Society in Austrailia. We also sent some to other people overseas. So I guess we could have said our little 'zine was distributed world wide.
[Note: Secrets of the Ages has long been out of print and is a much sought after book. However, thanks to Global Communications never ending effort to make previously lost or rare information available again, the book is available in its entirety under its reprint title, Finding Lost Atlantis inside the Hollow Earth. The publisher gave this writer the honor of writing the forward for this new edition of the heavily researched and well documented classic by one of the worlds most knowledgeable scholars on the subject. You will find a rare interview with Mr. Trench at 5:23 minutes into this BBC Special TV series, Conspiracies-Hidden Places Part 3 . And, unashamedly stroking myself - if you continue to watch you can find a few words from yours truly at 6:15 minutes and then again just before the ending. Also of interest to note, as the end credits reflect, our good friend TAL was an adviser for this series].

Back to the interview:
So, Mary, How did you find new subscribers? Did you do any advertizing?

Not really, we told Dorothy Starr and she put a small ad in her Pole Watchers magazine. We did two talk shows on the radio with Hilly Rose. At that time he was broadcasting out of the studio at L.A.'s 50,000 power watt station, KFI. His show was heard all over the nation. On the second radio show with Hilly Rose Tom and I were on with Richard Shaver. I think doing that let a lot of people know who we were or whatever. New subscribers came from that exposure.
I remember one very funny thing concerning HH that happened back then. I was working at the post office in Beverly Hills California at that time so we had a P.O. Box in Beverly Hills as our return address on the Hassle. Of course a Beverly Hills address looks very impressive to some people. But, we hadn't even thought of that. We had the box just for the convenience.
Well, when we moved to Alhambra, my son went to his new school and he met this little kid whose family was getting our newsletter, believe it or not. Because of our P.O. Box he believed we produced the Hassle out of a big expensive office in Beverly Hills and he was very impressed. My son brought him to the house and he found out we were working out of the bedroom. Of course there were no computers, just old fashion scissors, the sweet smell of white paste and a pile of newspaper clippings lying around. He was totally disillusioned. You could see it in his face. The HH didn't have an office in Beverly Hills. I guess it lowered the whole Hollow Earth idea a notch in that poor kids mind.
Shortly after that we decided to move to Tennessee so I quit my job at the post office and we shut the newsletter down. Of course we had boxes of unused information to deal with. We did't want to just discard the good information, so we decided to give it to a man who we were corresponding with . . . Michael something or other. He lived somewhere on the central coast of California if my memory is right.
He had put out some Hollow Earth stuff and assured us he was ready to carry the ball by continuing a Hollow Earth newsletter. Then all of a sudden he went exploring in some tunnel or cave. He got down so far, it started to fill up with water and he ran out as fast as he could. The experience freaked him out and he never again wanted anything to do with Hollow Earth. He never used any of the information we had given him and we were never able to get it back. So that was the end of the first publication of The Hollow Hassle. It was Volume 1 and there were 13 issues.
When did you meet Richard Shaver?

Tom and I were traveling around the country. The first time we met Richard Shaver was in 1973 on our way to Gatlinburg Tennessee. We went there because some psychic said we should go there and we found out later that she just told us that because she liked the place. It's a big tourist attraction. We thought it was a psychic thing and I quit my job at the post office, we all piled in my van, and off we went to Gatlinburg. Ha, ha, those were carefree days.
Anyway, on the way there we did stop and see Richard Shaver at his place in Arkansas and had a good time visiting with him and took some pictures. On our way back to California we stopped by to see him again. The first time we were there he looked pretty good. The second time he looked thin and whatever. He didn't look as well. He had just signed a contract with a major motion picture company to be an adviser on a movie about the Shaver Mystery. Shortly after we left he had to go to the hospital with some blocked bowels and he told his wife Dorothy, "I'm not going to make it back". And she said, "Don't be afraid it's not that big of a deal". He told her, "No, the Deros aren't going to let me make my movie. I won't be back".
Shortly after that I received a letter from Dot, Richard's wife. Richard had died. The explanation of his death has never been fully and satisfactorily explained as far as I'm concerned.
[Note: For more on Mary's reaction to Shaver's death see the copy of her letter to me located in the last section of my report on the THEI webpage, Palmer & Shaver Part 2].

I know you started publishing the Hollow Hassle again. How did that come about?

In the early 80's, Tom and I were no longer together, and I was living in Santa Fe N. M. Once again I was working at the post office. I found I had extra time on my hands and was making pretty good money so I decided to start the Hassle up again. I started this run with Volume 2 #1 and published it quarterly. I had the list of subscribers from the first HH, so I sent each of them a complementary copy of the new one to see if they wanted to subscribe. I also exchanged small ads with others. Richard Toronto graciously put an ad in his very popular Shavertron magazine.
Once I started putting it out again people begin picking up on it. People returned who had taken it in the 70's. From there it spread by word of mouth. We also did a lot of exchanges with others for copies of their publications.
I begin put it out in Santa Fe, then I moved up to Colorado and continued to put it out. During that time I had a get together with Bruce Walton, (A Guide to the Inner Earth) [also known as BRANTON author of the Branton Files] Christine Hayes, Paul Kay, a long time subscriber from New York City. We all met in Salt Lake City at Christine Hayes' house. That was the first time I met Bruce in person. He was young then, around 20. Christine puts out as newsletter also, but I think she puts it out under another name. She was channeling. A lot of it had to do with the Hollow Earth.
What did you do about using copy written material? That was always a worry for me when I put THEI together.
I always gave credit of where the information or clipping came from. [When I used something]. When I used information out of Fate magazine I gave credit but I didn't worry about it because Richard Shaver told me that Ray Palmer always put in his magazines that the stories were copy written but they were not.
Were you ever involved in any field work? Checking out tunnels or caves, stuff like that.

Ha, Ha. Almost. It's a weird story. Charles A. Marcoux's wife got in touch with me. He was involved with the investigation of the Blowing Cave near Cushman Arkansas. I had a meeting with him in Albuquerque N.M. Charles was a long time researcher into Hollow Earth, and he had some letters he wanted me to see. According to his information, there were these seven people who went to this cave in Arkansas. They went down far enough till they hit another civilization that wasn't detrimental deros, they were a group of teros - the good guys. [Note: Deros and Teros]. One of the men stayed down there, I think his name was Wight. Anyhow the other six came back up.
Years later they got in touch with Charles Marcoux because they felt this information should be put out because it had been kept secret all that time. Charles got in touch with me because of the newsletter. He felt that he could promote an expedition through my newsletter. Or at least get something going. . . . Research and that. So I put a lot of stuff in my newsletters that I got from him. We had drawings of the cave and the map on how to get there.
Charles was also physic. He could picture something in his mind, maybe a UFO or something then snap a picture and it would show up on the photo even though others around him would have seen nothing in the direction he had pointed the camera. He produced some very strange photography. And this was way before there were computers. He did it as far back as the 40's where he couldn't have used Photoshop or whatever. He was an interesting person. I'm still in touch with his wife.
Anyway, He went to Albuquerque, he lived in Arizona some place, Phoenix I think.
He started out going to Superstition Mountains. He decided he was going to go to Arkansas and go to the Blowing Cave which was suppose to be an entrance to the Subterranean world. I lived in Colorado and I drove down to Albuquerque and met him there. We finally decided that a bunch of us would go to Arkansas and meet him there at a certain time. Then we were all going to go to this cave together. That included me, and if I remember right Bruce Walton was part of it. I can't remember everyone who was supposed to go, but there was a few of us. We all pitched in and bought a lot of equipment and everything we thought we might need for descending into this cave. Charles had gone to this cave many times to take pictures. But he had never gone further than just inside the entrance where he would take pictures of faces in the walls of the cave. You know, like Richard Shaver and his rock drawings? We used a lot of the pictures in my newsletter.
We had all made plans and were anxiously counting the days until time to go which was only two weeks away. Then he and his wife went back to the cave to have another look see or whatever. He and his wife were there when suddenly a swarm of bees appeared out of nowhere and stung him. Then just as suddenly he died. Even thought he wasn't in the best of health he knew how to pace himself. He was very careful and didn't over-do. I honestly think he was stopped from taking all of us into that cave. Everything was going wrong.
Joan O'Connell, editor of New Atlantean Journal had just died, dropped dead in the garage while feeding her dog. No history of past heart problems. Then Gray Barker was going to take over her newsletter and talk about the Hollow Earth and he died three months later. It was just really weird. It got real strange. Just a whole bunch of deaths. It was like anyone who was trying to promote this was dying. I had health problems myself and after a couple of attacks it got really scary. After Charles died we had to cancel the trip of course. It was just really bazaar. But he sure was a thorough researcher. There is a lot of his research and stuff in several of my newsletters.
Wow, interesting. And how long did you publish the Hassle the second time?

Slightly over 5 years. I started with Volume II #1 and continued putting it out every three months until Volume VI #1, when I had to quit because of financial and health reasons. Of course, today, with the computer . . .
I know. You miss it, I know I do. It had a different feel to it than the way we do it today. So after all is said and done. Did you learn anything? What do you come away from it all with?

I guess it's the same thing that was part of the reason I got into it to start with. We know more about outer space than we do what's under our feet, and that's what fascinates me. And after all these years, today, I still think there is a possibility that there are other civilizations living inside our planet.
I started The Hollow Hassle in 1972 and now its 2008, and with all I've learned and studied I'm fascinated by the fact that in my mind, I still can't say for certain that it's all make believe. After reading the Smokey God for the first time all those years ago, I thought "this is real. I know this is true". It was just one of those de-javu type things and nothing I've learned since has ever changed my mind. I still think there is a possibility that the earth is hollow. With me it wasn't something I came to slowly. With me it was immediately.
Looking back now, how do you feel about the time and money you spent composing and distributing the Hollow Hassle?

I loved putting it out. Even if I lost money it didn't matter. If I could have afforded the money to continue putting it out I would probably still be doing it. Even though I know there is no demand for a printed 'zine today . . . I would never had quit, but when you are out of work and each issue cost like $500. 00 to put out and then the money for postage . . . well you know. I only charged 10 bucks a year and that didn't even cover postage and cost. It was always operated at a loss. But making money had nothing to do with it. It was a lot of fun.
Having been there I know exactly what you mean. I guess the biggest fan of our fanzines were those of us who put them out. Thank you for an enjoyable conversation. Now, let me go. I've got a book to order.
