=================== Bulletin Option #1 ======================= The Story behind Vangard Sciences and the Generation of the KeelyNet System Vangard Sciences (KeelyNet sponsors) was organized in December of 1986 in Dallas, Texas as an alternative means of communication regarding the more science based relationships of metaphysics and the paranormal. Kay West suggested the name (Vangard) after much deliberation among a group of friends meeting at Ron and Kays house. The spelling is intentional to prevent any collision with other VangUards (with a U). Our original purpose was to present public presentations in the form of lectures and workshops, perform basic research and practical development in various scientific and pseudo- scientific disciplines and provide regular meetings for anyone seeking to be actively involved in the study of the more unusual aspects of science. For our first year, 1987, we sponsored a monthly lecture on a variety of topics. These lectures involved local and outside speakers who covered such topics as pyramids, dowsing, acupuncture, electromagnetic healing, Keely, alchemy, sonics in relation to planetary and astrological influences and other diverse subjects. Also during that first year, in conversations over the years with my friend and collaborator Dale Pond, editor and publisher of the Journal of Sympathetic Vibratory Physics (the Keely newsletter), we had discussed sponsoring a Symposium on the work of John Keely. I (Jerry) had been studying Keely since the late 60's and Dale had been actively involved since 1985. We both felt that a gathering of people interested in Keely was overdue by about one hundred years. At the time we originally discussed this, Dale was living in Virginia. By 1988, he was in process of moving to Colorado. I (Jerry) made the decision to take on the financial and organizational responsibilities of the First Annual International Keely Symposium to be held in the Dallas area. Dale arranged for the speakers and some advertising while I organized local advertising, the location of the Symposium, the speakers hotel, mementos and the lunch. The 1st Keely Symposium was held on August 1st, 1987 at the Richardson Civic Center. The event was covered by Dennis Stacy a contributor and now writer for OMNI magazine. The story on the Keely Symposium did not appear until the 1988 April issue. Our second year led us to an opportunity to lease an educational program on Tesla which we felt might allow us to generate sufficient capital to establish a trust fund. The interest from the trust would be used to finance our activities. Page 1 We called the program, ZAP DALLAS. It made use of a 6 foot Tesla coil capable of generating electrical discharges up to 12 feet in length. With the help of Dale Pond, we brought the Tesla equipment from Denver to Dallas after leasing a movie theater in Garland as our public display location. We removed several rows of seats in order to build a custom stage for the Tesla demonstrations. These one hour demonstrations involved a running monologue of Teslas' life and accomplishments paralleled by experiments to demonstrate various Tesla coil effects. The effects ranged from simple discharges to the use of a Faraday cage. Our grand finale involved our demonstrator (MR. ZAP) standing on a special table which was connected to the Tesla coil output. We then sent a reduced output on the order of 900,000 VAC over his body to stream off his hands, tongue or any other pointed member. Needless to say, people were fascinated by the effects, especially the passing of electricity over a live body. We ran the program for the month of March with the little advertising we could afford. Our attendance totalled about 500 people during that period. We lost out miserably although many people kept coming back with other friends. Many of our most ardent patrons were engineer/science types who appreciated the work which such a project entailed. After packing up the ZAP DALLAS theater location, we found that OMNI magazine had published an article in the April 88' issue on Tesla. Our final opportunity came from an invitation by TEXAS ELECTRIC (the local power company) to serve as their exhibit for the 28th Annual Texas Energy Science Symposium for High Schools at the University of Texas at Austin. We packed up the equipment and drove to Austin on Tuesday, June 7, 1988. On arrival Dr. Austin and Dr. Klein assisted us in the setup of our equipment in a medical auditorium which had a capacity of 450 people. On testing the equipment, the humidity must have been near perfect as we got the full discharge length of 12 feet. Dr. Austin and Dr. Klein were thinking the unit would be small with discharges on the order of 4 to 8 feet. On seeing this test, Dr. Austin was quite excited and wanted to purchase one for the UTA Physics Department. The show began at 7:30 and was scheduled to end at 8:30, our standard one hour program. The room was packed and people were standing against the walls and doors. Later estimates by our UT sponsors said the room probably contained 500 people, more than they had ever seen in any of their programs in this room. During the show, we garnered extended applause and questions. The enthusiasm of the people induced us to perform extra experiments for their participation which led to a prolonged question/answer session. The show was finally over at 10:00 PM. Two and one half hours on Tesla and the unusual aspects of science. On packing up the next day, many people who we did not know, insisted on patting us on the back or shaking our hands to Page 2 congratulate us on the show. Later, a June 29th letter from Dr. Dale Klein states, "The responses we have received regarding your presentation have been very favorable. I am certain that your comments inspired these future scientists and engineers. Thank you for a fine presentation." Our staff at our greatest moment were Jerry Decker, Ron Barker, Chuck Henderson and Wayne Fowler. Wayne is a professional actor who is interested in the Vangard Sciences and who served as our narrator. Jerry is Director, Ron is Business Manager and Chuck is the Vangard Secretary. After the return of the Tesla equipment to Denver in the month of December 1988, we decided to redefine our goals and means of achievement. We obviously needed a space in order to build up a workshop. Lectures were fine for exchanging ideas but resulted in little or no practical implementation. For that purpose, I (Jerry) decided to buy a house. We also needed some form of mass communication ability to spread the word on Keely and our interests. Thus, the idea for KeelyNet was born. On attending lectures and Conferences both locally in other states, we have made many interesting contacts and information exchanges. From these exchanges, we see many overlapping fields of study which need to be made freely available to all interested parties. Our present intentions involve the support and continuing expansion of the KeelyNet system, the buildup of a workshop for experimentation including documentation of our work in the form of videotapes or textual descriptions capable of being listed on KeelyNet or otherwise distributed. We have come to realize over the past few years that there is a problem which should influence all experimentation. That is the problem of ecology and global warming. We meet many people working on health related activities. If the planet dies or is crippled, health will not matter. In the very near future (projections range from 10 to 20 years MAX), you can not step outside without a head to toe covering, special sunglasses to reduce UV to the eyes and probably breathing apparatus. Drought will cause massive famine, reduction in public services including energy and petroleum products. Air conditioning failures from no power, no gas or electricity for cooking when you can find edible food. A critical juncture is approaching and we must all take steps to slow it, prevent it or have the option of escaping from it. How can we do this? Focus our research on FREE ENERGY and LEVITATION. Keely is one of the ways. We have collected much documentation on many modalities and techniques. It is time to spread the word and ACTIVELY WORK for practical implementations. For that reason, Vangard Sciences will actively work on FREE ENERGY devices as well as LEVITATION. The KeelyNet will serve as a means of distributing our collection of information to the widest possible audience at the least possible cost. We also Page 3 mail out documentation to people whom we know to be distributors and/or networkers for this type of information. Our permanent mailing address is: Vangard Sciences, PO BOX 1031, Dallas, TX, 75149 Our voice phone is (214)-324-8741, our KeelyNet BBS phone is (214)-324-3501. We welcome any comments, suggestions, information, equipment for experimentation or financial support. Thank you for your interest. ------------------------------------------------------------------- The following is an Update on April 10, 1990 Recent developments require that we further focus our goals on the following specific areas. The purpose for the establishment of KeelyNet is to allow the rapid and free exchange of information relating to : 1) free energy technologies 2) anti-gravity technologies and techniques 3) unusual methods of ecology 4) alternative health systems including anti-aging 5) UFOs, what are they, can we duplicate them 6) the free release of the work of John Keely covering Sympathetic Vibratory Physics 7) contacts and notices for symposia & conferences 8) future conferences on biology, ecology, free energy, anti-grav and others of interest We of VANGARD SCIENCES realize that our planet is rapidly coming to a point of no return and that ONLY THROUGH THE FREE EXCHANGE of information relating to the above topics, especially free energy, anti-grav, ecology and health will we survive as the race of Man. Our primary focus is therefore on these topics with a particular emphasis on the work of John Worrell Keely in the area of Vibrational Physics. We believe that the computer is the ideal means to efficiently distribute information on the above topics. We also believe that the three most destructive modes of thought can be reduced to : GREED - POWER and EGO. For these reasons, we openly share all information that we have with all interested parties unless otherwise restricted by the donors of sensitive information. Responsibilty for the use or abuse of such information invevitably falls on the user. Page 4 We are currently gathering information which will point to a hybridized system for sustaining a HOME! This system will include the following : 1) A free energy or over-unity device capable of providing a minimum of 10 KW of electrical energy per unit with the least high-tech requirements possible 2) A device for purifying water and air for use in homes 3) A device for condensing water directly from the air with cool air as a byproduct 4) Advanced hydroponic and agricultural techniques for growing the greatest quantity and quality of food crops in the least space and with the least attention 5) Techniques for increasing the size and quality of meat sources such as fowl, beef, pork and fish 6) More efficient, yet palatable and health sustaining foodsources which do not require the destruction of lower life forms including plants and animals 7) Weather modification techniques (centralized) to minimize drought, freezing and wind induced damage 8) Techniques for generating light, heat and motor power which are not necessarily electrically driven 9) Health technologies which will restore an organism to its optimal energy and functions and which can be located in the home for use as required 10) Transportation techniques which take advantage of flight by using levitation brought about by magnetic, sonic, electric or air moving technologies The above principles must be non-polluting, safe for humans in proximity with such technologies and as low-tech as possible. ------------------------------------------------------------------ The following is an Update on April 25, 1992 Despite our intentions to maintain a low profile, we have now been the subject of at least two magazine articles (to our knowledge.) One was the December 91' SPY magazine, the latest was a short article in the April 92' Boardwatch magazine ( devoted to computer bulletin boards ), both national publications. One of the articles begins with "Forget the Time/Life Book Series, give KeelyNet a call and you can generate several books of your own." From our friends down in Australia, many of our files have been distributed throughout that country and in fact some were picked up by the Australian company - BEYOND 2000, which airs on the Discovery channel. They sent a letter complimenting us on what they had seen to date and said just from that limited information they could generate 2 years of shows for BEYOND Page 5 2000! In fact, one of our files led to the recent airing of an interview and demonstration with Sandy Kidd, inventor of a Gyroscopic Levitation System. We currently have that video for study. In addition, they sent a check for the purchase of our complete disk set of text files which we began selling in 1991. This was to reduce phone costs from having to dial up and download all our files. We conservatively estimate such an operation would cost at least $200 in phone costs alone and our files continue to grow on a monthly basis. And for 1992, we have established relations with Mr. Per Lindgren, sysop of the GAS STATION in Gaevle, Sweden. He asked to become the official Eastern European KeelyNet Affiliate and we have agreed to exchange files on a regular basis. It currently costs $1 per minute to link with Sweden. This opens up entire new vistas since the dissolution of the Soviet Union has allowed many scientists and researchers to speak on their projects. Per has graciously volunteered to translate our files into Scandinavian and Russian, as well as translating their files into English which will be mailed to us. So that offers tremendous new avenues of exploration. We currently have an image capture board, video duplication and editing/enhancement abilities, image enhancement abilities, a new FAX board for the computer and will soon have a 9600 BAUD modem courtesy of Mr. Guy Resh. In addition, we have received some fascinating videos as well as text documents which will continue to be added to KeelyNet for public distribution to those wishing to keep up on what is going on in the various fields as encompassed by KeelyNet. Our contacts have spread considerably over the past two years and we have learned much from those who have so graciously shared their own particular stash of information as well as some of their research findings. On July 15, 1992, KeelyNet will celebrate its 3rd Anniversary since it was first begun in 1988. We consider ourselves fortunate to have had the opportunity to converse and exchange information with so many excellent minds. ------------------------------------------------------------------ The following is an Update on November 18, 1992 In August, we purchased a full page scanner that is intended to allow us to scan in black and white images such as patents and circuit diagrams. It can scan 64 grey scale and has a 50 page sheet feeder. One of our users sent us OCR software to allow us to directly scan in and translate documents into ASCII useable text files. We also have another system we are working on which will have about 106 MB of free disk space. It will run the newer WILDCAT 3 software and will have 22 file sections and 13 conference areas. As of November 16th, we have the 9600 modem online and functioning Page 6 at 9600 BAUD. However, we are "fine-tuning" the initialization codes to allow the maximum connection of 14,400 bps. When the new system is ready, the 9600 modem will be connected to it also. It is quite amazing to watch the transfer of large amounts of data at such high rates of speed. I watched as about 300KB of files were sent in less than 6 minutes...incredible. At this rate, all of our files could be completely downloaded in about two and a half hours. Ron has come up with some great programs which allow image enhancement as well as made a contact who let us scan in the KEELY lab and equipment pictures as high resolution images. These will be listed on the new system also. All KeelyNet text files have always been free to everyone, however since we have been acquiring new equipment to further expand our system and abilities, the new system will have an upper technical section that is accessible ONLY to those who subscribe for this technical access. The rate will be $30.00 per year with unlimited downloading. The subscription accessible section will include patents, circuit diagrams and other technical information. Users who contribute to our system will be granted full access since they have proven themselves to be sharers of information. There are a few who simply take all that they can without sharing or otherwise contributing in any fashion. Recently (began October 1992), we began having meetings of interested individuals to discuss various subjects and exchange information. We have intentionally kept these meetings small so that they would not turn into a mob. So far, we have had two meetings ranging in size from 24 to 28. We plan to continue these monthly meetings on a regular basis for the express purpose of exchanging information and ideas. ------------------------------------------------------------------ Our sole source of income to support KeelyNet and our research activities is through private donations and personal funds contributed by our board members.
