THE AQUARIUM CONSPIRACY

by

Dan Smith and Rosemary Ellen Guiley

Directors, Center for North American Crop Circle Studies

We stand accused, according to the various rumors that are

circulating, of being key figures in one of the greatest

conspiracies ever to hit the paranormal field.

Well, golly... shucks, folks....

Actually, we wouldn't mind taking the credit, but out of a

sense of sheer honesty and modesty we have to report that we are

a bit short of realizing this conspiratorial goal. Nonetheless,

if others want to continue this conspiracy, then we should not be

too modest or too honest, but do what we can to keep those rumor

mills grinding.

First, though, a little background for those of you who are

joining us late. Rumor has it that we are working for the CIA,

and specifically the Aviary, to spread disinformation throughout

the crop circle-ufology fields. Lately, we have been named as

part of an alleged international disinformation conspiracy in

"Schnabelgate," the Jim Schnabel-Robert Irving-George Wingfield-

Henry Azadehdel tape circus that hit crop circles last fall.

Wingfield, one of England's leading cereologists, suspected

Irving and Schnabel of hoaxing circles in order to discredit the

phenomenon and its researchers. He enlisted the help of Henry

Azadehdel, a.k.a. Armen Victorian, a journalist who specializes

in writing exposes in the UFO field. Posing as an African

journalist, Azadehdel called first Irving and then Schnabel to

ask questions about the "conspiracy." Irving and Schnabel say

they knew what game was afoot, and put one over on Azadehdel by

embroidering a tall story of a conspiracy involving intelligence

agencies in the US, UK and Germany, and the Vatican as well. The

conversations were taped, and Wingfield took them as gospel

truth. The resulting controversy has damaged cereology and

alienated researchers.

Now Wingfield comes along to stir the pot even more, talking

about a CIA lunch we three were at last year, showing in his

lectures a slide of Rosemary seated next to a member of the

Aviary. The implication is that this was the Big Approach to

Compromise George. Sorry, George, it ain't so, and more about

"The Lunch" in a moment.

We've been publicly silent about all these allegations,

because denial only fuels more intense belief on the part of the

paranoid. Those who love rumors will continue to believe in them

and spread them, regardless of what we say. We'd rather stay out

of the rumor gutter and talk to people who are interested in the

truth. We've been asked what we're really doing. Here's our

answer.

In the beginning there was eschatology--the branch of

theology dealing with the end times. Dan, having spent many

years first studying physics and then metaphysics, came to the

conclusion that the scientists have been looking at the world

upside down. Mind, not matter, is the foundation for all

realities. Moreover, the materialist paradigm was in danger of

imminent collapse, being subverted on the inside by its own

contradictions, and on the outside by the growing body of

evidence for the paranormal.

Creating and maintaining a reality is no easy game. It

requires a lot of magic, and a lot of conscious critters like

ourselves who are pretty good at collective self-deception.

Fortunately--or perhaps unfortunately--our particular reality

game has about reached its natural conclusion, and we are waking

up to the fact that mind and matter are not separate. We are

undergoing an exciting but stressful revolution in our collective

consciousness.

This revolution, or global spiritual emergency, will bring

upheavals and overloads in our global consciousness that will

impact the material Earth for better or worse, and may quickly

get out of control. We also will be opening up to other

realities that will be impacting us as well.

Our present very tidy sense of reality and its boundaries is

due to become much more fluid and permeable. Every spiritual

tradition takes very seriously its prophesies about the end of

the world, but for the first time we are seeing these prophesies

turning into believable predictions of earth and reality changes.

That is how Dan fell from physics into eschatology.

After experiencing numerous slammed doors among his former

scientific colleagues, he decided that the most logical place to

find fellow eschatologists would be in various intelligence

agencies and among investigators of the paranormal.

Dan next addressed how to communicate about the eschaton.

Even a small hint that the government is worried about the end of

the world might start a chain reaction of panic, which could

possibly serve as a trigger for the eschaton. On the other hand,

people inside the government might be wanting to set up a kind of

civil defense network vis a vis the eschaton, and so they would

be looking for people on the outside who could much more freely

network among the general public.

An important link in the communication chain is what has

become known as the Aviary. This is the final link next to the

public network, and so it must be heavily disguised by its own

surrealistic smoke screen. The Aviary functions best by

amplifying people's own misconceptions about the paranormal. It

does this by helping to overinflate individual pieces of the

puzzle so that particular investigators get pushed further into

their own blind alleys. People are encouraged to be so

distracted by the trees that they fail to see the forest.

This cacophony by people looking for truth in all the

strangest places provides an excellent cover for the deadly

serious business of clearing the decks and battening down the

hatches for the eschaton event. It is like a Manhattan Project

going on behind the scenes of alien grays and praying mantises

having sex with humans. However, this eschaton conspiracy is

being orchestrated by higher powers, and we don't mean the

Committee of 300. Very few of the people even near the center of

the orchestration have a clear picture of what is coming down,

but they do know that something is coming and that they will have

front row seats.

The Manhattan Project relative to the eschaton is a global

civilian network of people who will serve as a lightning rod for

the cosmic energies coming in during the consciousness

revolution. They will be looking to channel these energies

into expanded realities. Thus, they will provide a degree of

protection for those people who can find their places alongside

the network. Outside of the network there will be greater levels

of trauma and confusion.

The pieces of the network are already in place, the

remaining task is to properly activate and link the pieces

into a critical mass of awareness. This last step is now

underway. This is how an Aviary helps to spawn an Aquarium,

and how birds learn to swim. The Aquarium is our business, and

we are working to reach people who are ready to be activated in

the consciousness revolution.

Now about the CIA lunch with George Wingfield. It was

organized by Dan as a networking effort, and took place on April

15, 1992 in a restaurant in Arlington, Virginia. Besides

ourselves and George, participants included George's wife,

Gloria, three employees of the CIA and an outside colleague of

theirs. None of us knew in advance what would be discussed.

Conversation centered on eschatology, crop circles, and an

explanation of the Aviary given to George by "The Pelican."

There were no requests, no offers.

Afterward, George wondered what it was all about. The

answers are obvious, but they won't be found in rumors.

Editor's Note:

I was intrigued after reading the "Aquarium Memo" because it, in

essence, raised more questions than it answered--especially on the

eschatology issue. I drafted a response and uploaded it to Don Allen,

(moderator for the FIDO UFO conference) requesting that he forward it

to Dan Smith and Rosemary Ellen Guiley. Several days later, I received

a call from Mr. Smith. I must confess that, being at work, I was

unprepared for the interview that followed.

Surprisingly, he confirmed the existence of the "Aviary," the shadowy

UFO intelligence group that includes the infamous "Falcon" and "Condor."

Smith also indicated that Richard Doty was still an active member of

the "Aviary," although his primary contact with this group is "Pelican."

Pelican's principle duty is to track millennial/eschatological communities,

"entering a twilight zone where psychic techniques are being generated by

humans and other entities."

Mr. Smith recounted the October 28, 1992 event in South Korea where

religious devotees of a particular sect awaited the "end of the world."

Over 20,000 members of the South Korean armed forces deserted during

this event and U.S. Army psychiatrists were sent to deprogram and

debrief them.

According to Mr. Smith, UFOs are primarily a psychological/metaphysical

phenomenon which are both preparing us and pressuring us to develop our

own psi abilities. Not that UFOs are a single type of entity, Smith

asserts that there are "powers and principalities" at work--presumably

angels and demons.

Furthermore, a radical program of psychic research and development is

currently underway near Los Alamos, New Mexico. This group's development

of psychokinesis, parapsychology, and psychotronics (a term used to

denote psychic warfare techniques) represents a danger of eschatological

proportions. "These techniques have been available, but controlled,

throughout history. Now, other entities are forcing the issue," says Smith.

The "Aquarium," as outlined by Smith and Guiley, is devoted to assisting

the "Aviary" in establishing a network of "spiritually advanced"

individuals to lessen the impact of the eschaton event.

During the course of our conversation, Mr. Smith seemed unable to

provide proof for his claims. He did report that his government sources

"hinted at" an eschatological emergency. To prove the evil intent of the

entities involved, he referred to reports of human mutilations in the

Amazon which have been officially attributed to drug dealers, but according

to his sources, were committed by these evil entities.

In closing, I passed along Armen Victorian's question (see Letters section)

concerning Rosemary Guiley's association with Vance Tiede and "RADM"

(Rear Admiral?) Harold Bliss and their "involvement in the UFO affairs."

Smith responded that it was Vance Tiede who originally suggested to Ms.

Guiley that she get involved in circles research and facilitated her

contacts in this field.

So what does it all mean? Mr. Smith revealed that the eschatological issues

raised related directly to the Biblical prophecies in the book of

Revelations. On the surface it could be that we're experiencing millennial

fever at the close of the 20th century. Then again, there are many

reports of secret military psi programs such as reported in Howard

Blum's Out There and the accounts of Ed Dame's commercial remote viewing

enterprise, PSITECH.

Mr. Smith has been invited to write an article for HUFON Report that

will articulate, in detail, his views and why he holds them.
