In the last 16 months
or so the UFO online community has seemed to divide itself into two
separate camps: those who are very supportive of
Tom DeLonge and the
To the Stars Academy of Arts and Science —
and everyone else.
The disagreement between the two groups can turn pretty acrimonious
on social media, where DeLonge’s apologists are very actively spreading
memes suggesting that UFO Disclosure is ‘just around the corner, while
attacking those who beg to differ –don’t believe me? You can put that to
the test only by tweeting some rant aimed at DeLonge, Luis Elizondo or
their company. You’ll attract the attention of
TTSA trolls quicker than it takes to say
“alien alloys” three times fast…
But Disclosure
die-hard fans should do well in heeding the words of the ‘greybeards’ of
the tribe who keep advising them to curb their enthusiasm. And perhaps
there’s no better cautionary tale to illustrate this than the story of
Joe Firmage.
Firmage is not a name that you hear often in current UFO discussions,
and yet he –like Tom DeLonge–was all the rage some 20 years ago. Back
then he was highly regarded as a cybernetic ‘wunderkid’ during the wild
years of the dotcom revolution, after having founded the
billion-dollar-worth company USWeb in 1995 and becoming a millionaire
before turning 30. Like so many other early online ventures, USWeb
eventually went down in 2001 when the first dotcom bubble burst, but not
before Firmage stepped down as CEO in 1998 –voluntarily, according to
him
in an interview—
due to a series of scandalous revelations which seemed to have made the
stockholders shudder: Firmage claimed that just before USWeb had its
IPO in 1997, he experienced a sort of
‘visitation’ from a luminous being inside his bedroom:
Another connecting link between DeLonge and Firmage seems to be Hal Puthoff. Puthoff is
vice-president of TTSA’s Science and Technology division;
he’s also the CEO of EarthTech International, Inc. (ETI), and Director
of the Institute for Advanced Studies at Austin (IASA). In a
1998 interview , Firmage enthusiastically shows to the reporter
“a spiral-bound sheaf of Xeroxes–scientific papers written by Harold E. Puthoff.” Whether
those papers were specifically commissioned by Firmage’s organization
is not specified in the article, but it wouldn’t be too far-fetched to
assume Puthoff was willing to collaborate with him, and submit his
scientific knowledge in order to speculate on the physics that could
allow anti-gravity fields and faster-than-light propulsion, just like
he’s currently doing with
To the Stars and how he also did for Bigelow’s BAASS when the Vegas tycoon held the AATIP contract –even though such speculations
are currently not taken seriously by most science commentators and physicists.
