MYSTERIOUS ELF SOUND AGONIZES NEW MEXICO;
|
|
SPREADS ACROSS THE NATION
|
|

|
|
In the desolate hills and canyons of New Mexico, the land is alive
|
|
with some strange phenomenon that pulsates in the hearts of the
|
|
people, driving them to exhaustion, distraction and illness. That
|
|
phenomenon is known simply as "The Sound". Is it some top-secret
|
|
underground operation in an area known for its legends about Area 51
|
|
and alien bases? Is it an underground generator? Water? Wind? Or is,
|
|
as some claim, "the voice of God" demanding attention?
|
|
|
|
The Phoenix Foundation was recently asked to conduct an
|
|
investigation by dozens of people whose lives are being torn apart
|
|
by a throbbing, pulsating noise that results in severe headaches,
|
|
nausea, illnesses and even broken marriages. There's no doubt "The
|
|
Sound" is real.
|
|
|
|
Dana Hougland, an acoustic engineer with the firm of David L. Adams
|
|
Associates, Inc. of Denver, brought her equipment to Taos in
|
|
response to a plea for help from Catanya Saltzman and her husband,
|
|
Bob, who contacted the Phoenix Foundation.
|
|
|
|
Hougland, who said her interest was sparked by Catanya's detailed
|
|
records of the sound, identified it as being some sort of powerful
|
|
pulse of 17 hertz, with overtones up to 70 hertz. The Environmental
|
|
Protection Agency has ruled these frequencies "psychoactive",
|
|
meaning they have pronounced and harmful biological effects.
|
|
|
|
The story of "The Sound" reeks with drama. The Saltzmans have
|
|
received telephone threats warning them to "back off" and "don't
|
|
stick your nose into something that's none of your business." The
|
|
Taos News has also received anonymous threats. Marriages have been
|
|
ruined because some people hear it - or feel it - and others don't.
|
|
The normal range for human hearing begins at about 20-30 hertz, but
|
|
women and children are more sensitive to these frequencies - and to
|
|
higher frequencies - than men, according to video display terminal
|
|
and other studies.
|
|
|
|
Hougland is very skeptical that the sound is related to underground
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
activities at nearby Los Alamos National Laboratory, about 56 miles
|
|
away. "That would be a world record," she said, citing the distance
|
|
a sound travels through any medium but open water before it
|
|
dissipates. The sound is low and the waves so elongated, she said,
|
|
that some people can feel it vibrating inside their chests. "Other
|
|
constant sound exposure with pure-tone components" - like prolonged
|
|
traffic noise or the sound one hears flying inside a jet - often
|
|
result in complainst of discomfort and illness similar to those
|
|
reported in several cities in New Mexico and now in other states,
|
|
such as Michigan and Texas.
|
|
|
|
The most apparent culprits, Hougland says, are a local sewage
|
|
treatment plant, power lines spanning the Rio Grande Gorge, large
|
|
underground machinery, large tunnels or mine shafts through which
|
|
wind and/or water is moving in large volumes at high speeds. But
|
|
that fails to explain similar sounds in far-off locations. "I'm not
|
|
ruling anything out," she said. "It would take an awful lot of
|
|
energy to transfer the sound waves out of the ground and through the
|
|
air."
|
|
|
|
Attempts to pinpoint a source, even with triangulation methods, have
|
|
been fruitless. Also, Hougland is skeptical about natural sources
|
|
because the sound wasn't noticed until suddenly in about June 1991.
|
|
"I'm sure the sound is there," she said. "There is a legitimate
|
|
problem here to be l;ooked at. But we're not dealing with something
|
|
horribly bizarre her4e. It's probably a very common source." Others
|
|
aren't so sure.
|
|
|
|
"We've been inundated with people claiming there are aliens running
|
|
around in underground bases," Catanya said. "But I do not believe in
|
|
UFOs and aliens." Yet the possibility cannot be overlooked entirely.
|
|
Catanya and most of her Taos neighbors are not familiar with the
|
|
claims of people like Bill Hamilton who claim extraterrestrials are
|
|
living in huge underground bases near Groom Lake, Nevada, not far
|
|
from Taos. When I placed an overlay of a map pinpointing The Sound
|
|
locations over a map of alleged underground alien bases, they
|
|
matched almost precisely.
|
|
|
|
The bizarre events at Groom Lake have been widely reported in People
|
|
Magazine, the Chicago Tribune, Wall Street Journal, Taos News and
|
|
elsewhere. Groom Lake is said to be a testing ground for alien
|
|
craft piloted by human pilots working with extraterrestrials. It is
|
|
known to be where the Stealth bomber and fighter were developed and
|
|
tested and where a new, saucer-shaped craft is being flown. Another
|
|
possibility - just as coinspiratorial - is that the government is
|
|
developing some kind of powerful, extremely low frequency "mind
|
|
control" weapon and testing it on an unwitting population. An Air
|
|
Force lieutenant at Kirtland Air Force Base guardedly acknowledged
|
|
that the Air Force was well aware of the complaints - and wanted to
|
|
know why we wanted to know more.
|
|
|
|
The sound is hauntingly familiar to the Woodpecker Signal, a
|
|
psychoactive Soviet pulse beamed worldwide at 10 hertz that
|
|
disrupted global communications, aircraft flights, and even - some
|
|
say - the weather. It was the same signal beamed at the US Embassy
|
|
in Moscow since 1963 that caused a dramatic increase in birth
|
|
defects and cancer among embassy personnel. Two ambassadors in a row
|
|
died of cancer and a third, Walter Stoessel, left with bleeding
|
|
eyes. President Kennedy authorized Operation Pandora, a top-secret
|
|
|
|
Page 2
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
investigation. The report is still top-secret.
|
|
|
|
The Phoenix Foundation, through the Freedom of Information Act, has
|
|
obtained once-classified documents from the CIA and DIA (Defense
|
|
Intelligence Agency) that prove beyond a doubt that the United
|
|
States has developed this technology as a weapon "to mold human
|
|
behavior in a manner consonant with national plans." The judge in
|
|
the Judas Priest "subliminal music" trial a few years back cited a
|
|
litany of CIA use of "mind control" to influence national elections,
|
|
but those written comments never made it into the mainstream press -
|
|
or any news medium for that matter, until now.
|
|
|
|
Catanya Saltzman, 44, who is leading efforts to identify the source
|
|
of this puzzle, first heard it in May 1991 in her home eight miles
|
|
south of Taos. "In the middle of the night, it woke me up and I
|
|
started running all over the house for a place to get away from it,
|
|
but I couldn't," she said. "At first, I thought somebody was digging
|
|
a well or something." Her husband, Bob, a photographer, couldn't
|
|
hear anything at first, then "snapped to it", he said. "Once you've
|
|
heard it, it's all over for you."
|
|
|
|
The sound has been noted over a wide area - from Tres Piedras on the
|
|
west to U.S> Hill on the east, and from 10 miles south of to a few
|
|
miles north of Taos. It is heard at all times of the day, but mostly
|
|
during the night and early morning hours. Coincidentally perhaps,
|
|
that is the time of day when the most intense activity is observed
|
|
at Groom Lake. Power lines were the first suspect, but when
|
|
electricity was cut off in the area due to a faulty transformer, the
|
|
sound continued. "The military conspiracy is the only one which I
|
|
haven't entirely ruled out," Bob Saltzman said. To those who are
|
|
affected by it, it isn't funny. "People are suffering from this,"
|
|
said Catanya. "It's real. Your concentration is thrown off. My hands
|
|
shake. It's hard to put words together . . . " "The hostility that's
|
|
been directed at us is coming from people who can't hear it and
|
|
don't want to know about it. It's like ostriches sticking their
|
|
heads in the sand."
|
|
|
|
The written threat to "back off" was published in the June 18, 1992
|
|
edition of the Taos News weekly newspaper: "Stop snooping where you
|
|
don't belong as far as 'the sound' is concerned. Someone may end up
|
|
getting hurt, so you'd better cease before it's too late. We mean
|
|
business. Don't pry into matters that don't concern you. You may
|
|
find something you don't want to know. Beware."
|
|
|
|
Editor Jess Williams said the unsigned, typed letter with no return
|
|
address bore an Albuquerque postmark (common on internal Taos mail)
|
|
and could be either a joke or a serious warning to either the
|
|
Saltzmans or to the Taos News. Hougland's firm has worked on sound
|
|
insulation on 2,000 homes around Denver's Stapleton Airport and
|
|
recent modifications of the city's Boettcher Concert Hall. She said
|
|
the 17-hertz signal carries a "rising harmonic" reaching 70 hertz.
|
|
She said she, too, could plainly hear the sound. She said a similar
|
|
problem in Alabama was traced to a large ventilation fan in an
|
|
underground mine. Pumps on sewage equipment can also emit vibrations
|
|
in the sub-hearing range.
|
|
|
|
Michael Valerio, water resource engineer for Taos, said no recent
|
|
additions have been made to the plant that could possibly explain
|
|
the noise. He also hears it at his home two miles from the plant.
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
State Environment Department environmentalist Juan Ortega visited
|
|
the area twice. He also heard it, but is baffled for an explanation.
|
|
U.S. Bureau of Land Management geologist Vickie Daniels said she and
|
|
her two children can hear the pulse from their home on the west side
|
|
of the Rio Grand Gorge. She has searched in vain for the cause, and
|
|
does not believe it is a natural phenomenon. Neither the Bureau of
|
|
Land Management nor the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has
|
|
equipment suitable to test for the source of the sound.
|
|
|
|
"My hearing's very poor," said Sally Howell, 79, who lives near the
|
|
center of Taos, "but for maybe a year and a half I've been feeling
|
|
these weird vibrations in different parts of my body - right where
|
|
the ribs come together, inside my ears and headaches." Paul Loumena
|
|
and Alexandra Lorraine, owners of the Laughing Horse Inn, stay in a
|
|
motel two nights a week just to escape the terror.
|
|
|
|
"My theory," Loumena says, "is the noise is above us and the town is
|
|
in a swale. Either that, ort the background noise of the town keeps
|
|
us from hearing it (when we stay at the motel)." He suspects high-
|
|
tension power lines. Jon Samuelson, assistant to the vice president
|
|
of external relations at Plains Electric Transmission and Generation
|
|
Cooperative in Albuequerque, discounts that. The last change in area
|
|
electricity transmission was when a new 345-kilovolt line was built
|
|
across the Rio Grand Gorge in 1981.
|
|
|
|
K.C. Grams, of Taos' south side, said her husband doesn't hear
|
|
anything, but she does. She replaced her home heat pump - but the
|
|
sound continued, even from 15 miles away. She first suspected a
|
|
neurological problem. When during a function at her child's school,
|
|
another mother asked if she heard the hum, she said, "My jaw
|
|
dropped. I almost cried. It was very heartening . . . It's very hard
|
|
to describe, especially a sound that many people don't hear. All I
|
|
can say is that it affects me like scraping fingernails against the
|
|
blackboard. It's very irritating."
|
|
|
|
"The Sound" has been reported in Albuquerque and in several other
|
|
northwest New Mexico cities. Schatzie Hubbell and her husband, of
|
|
Santa Fe, are among several who are trying to sell their home and
|
|
flee the state. The Hubbles are going to Arizona. "The most common
|
|
theory we've heard is, 'Jesus is making this sound to wake you up,'"
|
|
said Bob Saltzman. A Los Alamos resident, Helen F. Stanbro,
|
|
suggests a medical cause. "The description of the symptoms
|
|
accompanying the sound ("jaw joint pain, nausea, vertigo")
|
|
immediately suggest an inner ear problem (infection? Meniere's
|
|
disease? Temporomandibular joint inflammation - TMJ?)"
|
|
|
|
"In the case of the man who described the sound as 'pulsating -
|
|
louder and softer - like a slow heartbeat', it alarms me to think
|
|
that it is very likely to be exactly that: such audible carotid
|
|
bruits are not uncommon and may signal serious condition s such as
|
|
arteriovenous fistula, carotid artery disease or even impending
|
|
stroke."
|
|
|
|
Tom Ladig of Taos suggests wind:
|
|
"Out by the Stakeout Restaurant (site of the Saltzman occurence)
|
|
there are power poles running roughly east-west along the main
|
|
access road. These poles are set quite far apart and have dual lines
|
|
well above the trees. Also, there exists a perpendicular set of
|
|
poles running roughly north-south in the vicinity." "What may happen
|
|
|
|
Page 4
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
is that the wind causes the wire to vibrate between the poles. Air
|
|
in turn is set in motion with waves radiating outwards at (for this
|
|
system) subsonic frequencies.
|
|
|
|
"A secondary phenomena must alkso be happening. Waves from different
|
|
pole-line sets merge over distance and either reduce or add to their
|
|
amplitudes. This would account for the energy to rise and fall in
|
|
intensity over time but still be subsonic."
|
|
|
|
This past May, Albuquerque TV station KOB-Channel 4 broadcast a news
|
|
brief about an underground geo-thermal shaft at Los Alamos which was
|
|
built to probe into the earth's hot inner core. Some suspect that.
|
|
"I live up at the Tierra Blanca," said Peggy S. SParks, "and have
|
|
for 50 years. The noise out here is real, fairly recent in origin
|
|
and irritating as hell."
|
|
|
|
"I only hear the noise at night, when the world is quiet. However, I
|
|
had gotten to be quite an insomniac until I started using a fan or
|
|
humidifier to block the saound out. "I have spent hours outside at
|
|
night trying to pinpoint the source of the sound. By the process of
|
|
elimination, the only projects in the last year or so that could
|
|
create sound of this magnitude is the generator/pump at the golf
|
|
course or the apparatus on top of Picuris Peak."
|
|
|
|
What is that "apparatus"? No one knows, beyond it being some sort of
|
|
radio transmission tower, perhaps for cellular phone transmissions.
|
|
J.C. McLoughlin of Talpa puts forth one of the most bizarre
|
|
theories: "I interviewed 'Moonhawk', a spiritual feminist. She says
|
|
that deep within the Picuris Mountains, a spaceship full of
|
|
immortals from Uranus has lain buried for some 10,000 years. This is
|
|
true; Moonhawk told me so. I'm not making this up.
|
|
|
|
"The atmosphere of Uranus is composed of frigid clouds of ammonia,
|
|
methane and other gases toxic to earthly life. Moonhawk says the
|
|
aliens are digging their way up from their hundred centuries'
|
|
hiding; the basso profundo we hear are from their vast excavating
|
|
machines, and their emergence is at hand. "Not to worry, though,
|
|
for these are feminist aliens, Moonhawk says, come to obliterate the
|
|
patriarchy.
|
|
|
|
"The Space Feminists are going to pour forth from their hole like a
|
|
horde of ammonia-quaffing killer hens from hell, to rid the world of
|
|
wars, oppression, meat-eating, social injustice, Republicans,
|
|
tourism-based economic inequality, suction-cup Garfields, airport
|
|
extensions, golf courses and all the other plagues visited upon
|
|
long-suffering humanity by the ancient ruling cabal of European
|
|
males. "Welcome to the UFO - Universal Feminist Order."
|
|
|
|
Oh, well! Rose Woodell of Llano Quemado: "I, too, am hearing and
|
|
feeling a low-frequency vibration dating back several months. "When
|
|
I leave the Taos Valley my physical discomfort (such as headaches,
|
|
nausea, disorientation, etc.) disappear. I had previously thought it
|
|
might be some sort of fallout from the Los Alamos area or a chemical
|
|
spray. "Could it be aliens? Nah, we'd be sending them foreign aid."

Secret Military Studies
|
|
|
|
September 18, 1990 - A tight lid of secrecy has been clamped on U.S.
|
|
military studies of biological effects of electromagnetic field
|
|
|
|
Page 5
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
(EMF) radiation. The Phoenix Foundation, through years of research,
|
|
has accumulated a large database of information dealing with the
|
|
biological effects of EMF and is the only civilian non-profit
|
|
research group in America specifically chartered to explore the
|
|
effects of Extremely Low Frequency (ELF) electromagnetic energy.
|
|
Over the past two months, the Foundation has released dozens of
|
|
documents from its files pertaining to the effects of EMF on
|
|
residents living near high-voltage power transmission lines. "The
|
|
time has come," says Foundation Executive DirectorJim Moore, "to
|
|
push this issue into the public consciousness. For too many years
|
|
the research has been classified 'for reasons of national security'
|
|
and has been used for advanced weapons research.' The Foundation
|
|
claims to have evidence that Americans may have been used as guinea
|
|
pigs in nationwide "mind control" experiments involving
|
|
electromagnetic fields. Adds Paul Brodeur, staff reporter for The
|
|
New Yorker and author of several books, including "The Zapping of
|
|
America": "Surely, if the questions that should have been asked
|
|
about the various applications of electromagnetic radiation continue
|
|
to go unasked about future applications, this nation will one day be
|
|
faced with a public health disaster of monumental and perhaps
|
|
irreversible proportions."
|
|
|
|
The Phoenix Foundation claims that the reason that EMF health
|
|
effects continue to be denied is because the military and
|
|
electronics industry are in close cooperation over what to make
|
|
public about EMF biological studies. As an example, the Foundation
|
|
cites a report entitled "Biological Effects of Electromagnetic
|
|
Radiation (Radio- waves and Microwaves) -Eurasian Communist
|
|
Countries," prepared for the Defense Intelligence Agency by the Army
|
|
Medical and Information Agency (you can order a copy of Report No.
|
|
DST-181 0S- 074-76). This report was issued in March 1976 as a
|
|
classified document. Most of its contents, 26 pages, were
|
|
declassified in November of that year after Barton Reppert, of the
|
|
Associated Press, wrote letters to the Pentagon requesting that it
|
|
be made public under the Freedom of Information Act. The Pentagon
|
|
agreed, apparently to help win increased Congressional funding for
|
|
electronics warfare systems. After acknowledging in a summary
|
|
section that microwave exposure standards in Communist countries
|
|
^'remain much more stringent than in the West," the report warned,
|
|
"If the more advanced nations of the West are strict in the
|
|
enforcement of stringent exposure standards, there could be unfavora
|
|
ble effects on industrial output and military functions."
|
|
|
|
The DIA report presents the rationale that "the Eurasian Communist
|
|
countries could, on the other hand, give lip service to strict
|
|
standards, but allow their military to operate without restriction
|
|
and thereby gain the advantage in electronic warfare techniques and
|
|
the development of anti-personnel applications." Much of the
|
|
declassified portion of the document is filled with obviously
|
|
deliberate, but unintentionalIy comic, contradiction,
|
|
misinterpretation and omission, the Phoenix Foundation claims. For
|
|
example, the first page of the summary says that "Eurasian Communist
|
|
countries are actively involved in evaluation of the biological
|
|
significance of radiowaves and microwaves," while the next page
|
|
declares: "no significant research and development has been
|
|
identified that could be related to work in this field in the
|
|
People's Republic of China, North Korea and North Vietnam.^' The
|
|
Soviet Union, in contrast, was not even mentioned in this paragraph.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Page 6
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The entire middle section of the report, entitled "Biological
|
|
Significance of Radiowaves and Microwaves," turns out to be little
|
|
more than a general review of well-known studies conducted by
|
|
Communist scientists from 1968 to 1975. Yet in its final paragraph
|
|
of a section entitled "Trends, Conclusions, and Forecast", the
|
|
authors reveal their most signifcant omission. Virtually alI of the
|
|
work whose usurpation by the Communists they are suggesting, and
|
|
whose potentially disastrous consequences they are describing, was
|
|
originally conducted by Allen Frey, published in the medical
|
|
literature of the United States, and financed by the Office of Naval
|
|
Research. That paragraph states: ^No Eurasian communist research
|
|
activity has been identified which can be clearly or directly
|
|
related to any military offensive weapons program. However, soviet
|
|
scientists are fully aware of the biological effects of low-level
|
|
microwave radiation which might have offensive weapons application.
|
|
Their internal sound perception research has great potential for
|
|
development into a system for disorienting or disrupting the
|
|
behavior patterns of military or diplomatic personnel; it could be
|
|
used equally well as an interrogation tool.
|
|
|
|
The Soviets have also studied the psychophysiological and metabolic
|
|
changes and the alterations of brain function resulting from
|
|
exposure to mixed frequencies of electromagnetic radiation. One
|
|
physiological effect which has been demonstrated is heart seizure.
|
|
This has been acomplished experimentally in frogs by synchronizing a
|
|
pulsed ultra-high-frequency microwave signal of low-average power
|
|
density with the depolarization of the myocardium and beaming the
|
|
signal at the thoracic area. A frequency probably could be found
|
|
which would provide sufficient penetration of the chest wall of
|
|
humans to accomplish the same effect. Another possibility is the
|
|
alteration of the blood-brain barrier. This could allow neurotoxins
|
|
in the blood to cross. As a result, an individual could develop
|
|
severe neuropathological symptoms and either die or become seriously
|
|
impaired neurologically.
|
|
|
|
The next paragraph is even more chilling: ^The potential for the
|
|
development of a numberofanti-personnel applications is suggested by
|
|
the research published in the USSR, East Europe and the West. Sounds
|
|
and possibly even words which appear to be originating
|
|
intercranially can be induced by signal modulation at very low
|
|
average power densities."
|
|
|
|
(In the spring of 1973, Dr. Charles C. Sharp and some colleagues at
|
|
the Walter Reed Army Institute of Research conducted an experiment
|
|
in which the human brain received a message carried to it by a
|
|
pulsed microwave transmission. Sitting in an anechoic chamber - a
|
|
room with absorbent walls designed to prevent microwave reflection -
|
|
Dr. Sharp was able to recognize spoken words that were modulated by
|
|
an audiogram - a graphic representation of the sound waves that
|
|
humans can hear - and that were then sent into the chamber at a
|
|
microwave frequency of about two gigahertz.) Later in the DIA
|
|
report, the authors predict that the Soviets will continue to use
|
|
internal sound perception, perceptual distortion and other
|
|
psychophysiological effects, and that "the results of these
|
|
investigations could have military applications if the Soviets
|
|
develop methods for disrupting or disturbing human behavior." A
|
|
smalI portion of this DIA report remains classified. It clearly
|
|
indicates that the US has been in volved in the development of such
|
|
weapons for some years: ^A study published in 1972 by the U.S. Army

Mobility Equipment Research and Development Center, titled "Analysis
|
|
of Microwaves for Barrier Warfare^, examines the plausibility of
|
|
using radio frequency energy in barrier-counterbarrier warfare. It
|
|
discusses both anti-personnel and anti-materiel effects for lethal
|
|
and non-lethal applications for meeting the barrier requirements of
|
|
delay, immobilization and increased target exposure. The report
|
|
concludes that:
|
|
|
|
a. It is possible to field a truck-portable microwave barrier
|
|
system that will completely immobilize personnel in the
|
|
open with present-day technology and equipment.
|
|
|
|
b. There is a strong potential for a microwave system that
|
|
would be capable of delaying or immobilizing personnel in
|
|
vehicles.
|
|
|
|
c. With present technology no method could be identified for a
|
|
microwave system to destroy the type of armored materiel
|
|
common to tanks."

(NOTE: A television producer has told me that a friend of his who
|
|
was in a band, went to the Gulf to entertain the troops. Inflight,
|
|
their sound equipment was lost, but the military pulled up with a
|
|
truckload "of the most sophisticated sound equipment I have ever
|
|
seen in my life." When band members started to photograph the truck,
|
|
they were stopped by military guards who told them it was a highly-
|
|
classified piece of equipment and could not be photographed. Other
|
|
sources have told us they were puzzled when the Army placed powerful
|
|
speaker systems throughout the desert - "but no sound came out of
|
|
them." An estimated 20,000 Gulf War veterans are now suffering from
|
|
the same symptoms one would find in the victims of electromagnetic
|
|
non-ionizing radiation - aching teeth, jaws, joints, chronic fatigue
|
|
syndrome, destroyed immune system, etc. Still other sources tell us
|
|
that this top-secret ELF "barrier weapon" was used against Manuel
|
|
Noriega in Panama; the "loud rock music" blared at Noriega's
|
|
hideaway was just a cover to mask the real purpose of this powerful
|
|
new weapon.)
|
|
|
|
A bit later in the same report, the authors reveal that the U.S.
|
|
Army Medical Research Laboratory at Fort Knox, Kentucky conducted
|
|
tests on microwave burns, using human guinea pigs: ^They have
|
|
produced third-degree burns on human skin with twenty watts per
|
|
square centimenter in two seconds, with frequencies of approximately
|
|
two Gigahertz.^
|
|
|
|
More than ten years ago, a CIA analyst suggested the same thing when
|
|
asked to review Project Pandora, the still-secret investigation into
|
|
the Soviet microwaves beamed at the U.S. embassy in Moscow. Dr,
|
|
Milton M. Zaret wrote: ^The primary emphasis of Soviet-bloc research
|
|
on the biological effects of non-ionizing electromagnetic radiation
|
|
is concerned with induced neuro-physiological or behavioral
|
|
aberrations. These may be either inhibitory or excitatory; the
|
|
primary locus of action may be in either the peripheral or central
|
|
nervous system, and the effects may be reversible or irreversible.
|
|
Super-imposed upon these three sets of variable are the concepts of
|
|
thermal vs. non-thermal effects, the role of continuous versus
|
|
pulsed waveform, and the degree of wavelength specificity.
|
|
|
|
Although the various reports appear, at first glance, to represent a
|
|
|
|
Page 8
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
confused and conflicting mass of data, a logical, orderly and
|
|
meaningful pattern can be evolved in evaluating their data. The
|
|
basic factors which must constantly be borne in mind are
|
|
|
|
(1) that microwave radiation is electromagnetic in nature,
|
|
(2) that the nervous system functions as an electronic network
|
|
normally shielded or protected from spurious fields and
|
|
(3) that when extraordinary electromagnetic fields are created
|
|
around neural elements this can produce functional or
|
|
organic neurological anomalies.
|
|
|
|
Zaret pointed out that Soviet research showed pulsed fields (such as
|
|
those which appear around power lines) were more effective than
|
|
continuous radiation in affecting nervous system pathways.
|
|
|
|
"For non-thermal irradiations, they believe that the electromagnetic
|
|
field induced by the microwave environment affects the cell
|
|
membrane, and this results in an increase of excitability or an
|
|
increase in the level of excitation of nerve cells. With repeated or
|
|
continued exposure, the increased excitability leads to a state of
|
|
exhaustion of the cells of the cerebral cortex. This results in the
|
|
Sechenov inhibition effect which is manifested by the elimination of
|
|
positive conditioned reflexes or behavior.^
|
|
|
|
This is the same result found in studies of the effects of power
|
|
line fields on human cell samples. One hesitates to quote such a
|
|
source as the National Enquirer, but the response this article
|
|
elicited from the Department of Defense warrants it. On June 22,
|
|
1976, the tabloid reported that since 1973 the Advanced Research
|
|
Projects Agency had been sponsoring a program to develop a machine
|
|
that could read minds from a distance by deciphering the brain^s
|
|
magnetic waves.
|
|
|
|
A scientist involved in the program had declared that the ultimate
|
|
goal of his work was to exercise control over the brain. According
|
|
to the article, scientists were studying various aspects of the
|
|
problem at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, New York
|
|
University, the University of California at Los Angeles, and the
|
|
National Aeronautics and Space Administration's Ames Research Center
|
|
at Moffett AFB in California. The amazing thing is that on November
|
|
19, 1976, in a letter published in Paul Brodeur's "The Zapping of
|
|
America^ and written by Robert L. Gilliat, Assistant General Counsel
|
|
for Manpower, Health, and Public Affairs for the Department of
|
|
Defense, the government confirmed such a machine actually exists:
|
|
"As indicated in my letter of November 12, information which I have
|
|
received from the Advanced Research Projects Agency is to the effect
|
|
that the so-called 'brain wave' machine, which was the subject of
|
|
the National Enquirer article . . . is not capable of reading brain
|
|
waves of anyone other than a willing participant in the laboratory
|
|
efforts to develop thatvparticularvdevice. Its technical
|
|
limitations, I am told, do not permit any long range use. I have no
|
|
reason to doubt that information."
|
|
|
|
What assurances do Americans have that this will ONLY work on
|
|
willing participants? The implications are staggering. It is
|
|
technologically possible that the entire power grid of the nation
|
|
could be used not only as a means of mind control "in a manner
|
|
consonant with national plans" (as put in a top-secret document
|
|
submitted to the Warren Commission in 1964 by former CIA Director
|
|
|
|
Page 9
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Richard Helms), but could also be used as a national tool of
|
|
surveillance. Is it unreasonable to believe that efforts continued -
|
|
and possi- bly even succeeded - to utilize this weapon over long
|
|
ranges and on unwilling participants? An intriguing report that
|
|
links these effects to those power densities "that exist in a
|
|
typical urban environment" was recently compiled by William Bise,
|
|
director of the Pacific Northwest Center for the Study of Non-
|
|
Ionizing Radiation, in Portland, Oregon. Entitled "Radio-frequency
|
|
Induced Interference Responses in the Human Nervous System," the
|
|
report describes preliminary experiments conducted on ten human
|
|
volunteers - five men and five women -between July 1975 and June
|
|
1976. According to Bise, these experiments, conducted without
|
|
controls, showed that "biological interference responses in the
|
|
human nervous system can be elicited not only by pulse-modulated but
|
|
by continuous wave radio-frequency at power densities substantially
|
|
below those levels that exist in a typical urban environment."
|
|
|
|
Four of the male volunteers, subjected to irradiation by electric
|
|
fields of only 65-90 microvolts per meter, experienced short-term
|
|
memory impairment, followed by concentration inhibition and by
|
|
irritability, and three of the women volunteers expressed
|
|
apprehension and mild irritation during the course of the tests. In
|
|
the final section of his report, Bise suggested that since
|
|
approximately five percent of the urban population of the U.S. was
|
|
believed to be living in an environmental power density averaged
|
|
over several radio bands of about two volts per meter, his findings
|
|
indicated that "a meaningful risk factor for the general population
|
|
appears to exist." He then concluded that "since radio-frequency in
|
|
the environment continues to increase at a phenomenal rate, there is
|
|
a need for further clarifying research of radio-frequency effects on
|
|
biological systems."
|
|
|
|
The importance of this research, claims the Phoenix Foundation, is
|
|
in the similarity of its effects to those found from power line
|
|
radiation. Dr. Zaret was likewise concerned about the Soviet
|
|
"woodpecker signal" that interrupted communications worldwide (New
|
|
York Times, October 30, 1976), not because of its interference with
|
|
radio and telecommunications, but because of its potential threat to
|
|
human health: "The broadband signal is being pulsed at an on -off
|
|
rate of ten times per second. When I analyzed the soviet literature
|
|
for Project Pandora back in the 1960s, it was very clear that such
|
|
an encoding impressed onto carrier wavelengths could have a central-
|
|
nervous-system effect. In the case of the present signal, I would
|
|
not be surprised to find that the on-off code at a repitition rate
|
|
of ten per second could have an effect on the brain's inherent alpha
|
|
rhythm. So whetever purpose the Russians may have for continuing
|
|
this transmission, the potential effect in human beings from
|
|
altering their alpha rhythm cannot be discounted." Powerline
|
|
radiation pulses at 60 times per second, a sixth-level harmonic of
|
|
the brain waves - same as six octaves higher. The biological and
|
|
cellular effects are the same, according to study after study after
|
|
study.
|
|
|
|
As this article went to press, in the September 1992 issue of The
|
|
Omega Report ($15/year-The Phoenix FOundation, P.O. Box 92008,
|
|
Nashville, TN 37209), we continued to receive reports from around
|
|
the nation about the same or similar ELF "sounds". The latest
|
|
reports come from Burbank and San Anselmo, CA, near Hamilton Air
|
|
Force Base.

If any of you have information or knowledge about similar effects or
|
|
activity in that area (or any other) that may be related to ELF
|
|
military experiments, please tell us. We are trying to map the
|
|
locations of these incidents by computer.
|
|
|
|
Before it becomes illegal to do so (I face a potential $1 million
|
|
fine and imprisonment under a propsoed FDA law), I would like to
|
|
give you a number of health approaches (natural, non-drug) that MAY
|
|
help combat the effects of this warfare in which we are the guinea
|
|
pigs. Exposure to ELF radiation will, among other things, weaken
|
|
the immune system and can cause skin problems, as well as the other
|
|
problems mentioned by Taos residents in this article.
|
|
|
|
For skin problems, I recommend - on the advice of a doctor who does
|
|
not prescribe drugs - citricide (a concentrated cirtric acid), lay
|
|
off coffee and use cooler water in your bath (for skin problems).
|
|
You might also want to consider alpha- or delta-wave brain
|
|
relaxation tapes (not subliminal tapes) that will counteract the
|
|
theta-wave effect of ELF radiation. Our research indicates there may
|
|
be a link between ELF radiation and AIDS - as it destroys the immune
|
|
system. We have testified in federal court as an expert witness on
|
|
this issue and will be doing so again in a court case in Springer,
|
|
Mississippi in October 1992.
|
|
|
|
By all means, consult your physician before taking any remedies.
|
|
Even vitamins, if over-used, can cause damage. We hope to have a
|
|
special report in the next issue on what you can do to combat ELF
|
|
radiation effects. Please note: ELF radiation is non-ionizing -
|
|
unlike nuclear radiation - so its effects are different.
|
|
|
|
If you are one of the growing number of Americans whose health is
|
|
being seriously jeopardized by "The Sound", please let us know.
