HOST: Dave Schrader
GUESTS: William J. Birnes
On this year's 70th anniversary of the Roswell incident, Bill Birnes joined Dave
Schrader to discuss the legendary event. He began with a recent re-examination
of a piece of evidence that has been under the microscope (almost literally.)
The so-called "Ramey memo" is seen in one of the famous photos of the Roswell
wreckage as it is held by General Roger Ramey, who supposedly ordered military
witness Major Jesse Marcel to lie and say that the wreckage was from a weather
balloon. Recent studies have tried to decipher the teletype from an old news
photograph. Birnes does not believe that the memo refers to anything
otherworldly, since that information would have been too sensitive to show in
public.
Birnes recalled his extensive interviews with original Roswell witnesses and
said that "they all told the same story" and further added that some of the
Birnes' favorite accounts was contained in the personal diary of Inez Wilcox,
who was the wife of the local sheriff at the time, and described the unusual
debris that was delivered to her husband by original witness Mac Brazel. Sheriff
Wilcox called the Army Air Force base and reported the material, which caused
the military to begin its investigation and retrieval operations. Based on his
research, Birnes believes that "there really was an alien craft" that crashed
near Roswell in 1947. He also believes that there was an increased ET presence
on the Earth at the time because "because we were like children playing with
matches" due to the recent invention of atomic weapons.
Thomas Edison was convinced that there was a reality unseen by the human eye.
This led to the last and least-known of all his inventions, the "spirit phone."
His former associate (and bitter rival) Nikola Tesla was also developing a
similar device. "Both of them thought there was a consumer market for talking to
the dead," said Birnes. In the second half, he described the rivalry and how
1920s saw a revival of spiritualism, with families trying to communicate with
dead relatives who had perished in WWI. Birnes said Edison believed that "when a
body died, that the essence of a person still existed" which could be detected
by a light meter and used as a communication channel. Tesla thought that the
secret to communication with the dead lay in detecting the right radio or sound
waves to listen to the words of the departed.
Although Edison thought that psychics and mediums were all frauds, he
nevertheless hired them to help him with experiments, which met with little
pointed out that Edison targeted ideas that he believed people would need and
"helped invent the consumer marketplace of the 20th century," while Tesla was
"more ideological" and conceptualized ideas such as devices that would receive
radio waves through a narrow band, which laid the work for more recent products,
1943, after which the U.S. government seized all of his papers, but refused to
release his suspected notes on anti-gravity theory.
