BUC'S PLEA

GENERAL INDEX                                               ALPHABETICAL INDEX BUC'S PLEA KAUNAKAKAI, OCTOBER 22, 2005     Thank you for coming to visit me. It's been nine years now, since December 28, 1996, when I was frozen in state. It is quite awful to be like this, and I know, I'm just one more statistic in the world since all those earthquakes, tidal waves and hurricanes.
    My husband Joel, tells me that there is ample evidence that, that what he calls OEAs (Off Earth Aliens) are here in this star system in great numbers, just waiting to help all of mankind, but that they are put off by the warlike posturing of many of the world's most powerful nations.
    He says that anyone can make contact with them if they want to; that they are far closer and more numerous than even SETI imagines. Their principal base is in orbit on the opposite side of our sun to us, their primary observation position in direct line with our sun on this side and their primary insertion/instruction base is behind the moon.
    Had conditions been favorable, they could have streamed down to earth in an armada of hospital ships and saved hundreds of thousands of us from the Indian Ocean tsunami, typhoons, hurricanes and earthquakes which have befallen so many.
    If you were to study the deflection patterns of intermediate meteorites, you would find an inordinately inexplicable skew of those with urban vaporization
impact potential UVIP curves, something OEAs can do for us without too much trouble. Maybe we should thank them.
    If your interested in lunar contact with OEAs, radio or laser should suffice, though limited obviously to those with the essential technical skills to put a command station together. Aim for the dark side of the moon. SETI is already set up to do this, so you may want to collectively join and contact them to emphasize this option, rather than longer range communication.
    If you are interested in optical daytime contact, might I suggest the equivalence of card stunts at a college football game, where the fans hold different colored sheets of cardboard in front of themselves or over their heads, turning them from one side to the other in cadence, or in a programmed sequence. Anybody can do this; a classroom of thirty children should be able to transmit thousands of miles into the sky.
    Select the type of code you would like to transmit in; international code probably being the best. You will need one person to call out the sequence in order to keep everybody in sync.
    This is how it works. If everybody has the same colored card stock (30 cm x 30 cm) and sturdy enough not to bend in the wind, and if they stand shoulder to shoulder in a group holding the cards flat overhead, anyone at some great distance away (above), will see a clump of white, if of course the cards are white. If then on cadence or command, everyone turns their cards on edge, and if everyone is wearing dark clothing, the clump of white will turn into a clump of black or darkish. By repeating this in a specific sequence, words can be spelled out, and sentences constructed, which can be seen from very far away, far further than a flashlight at night.
    I think that it is fair to assume that the OEAs have pretty advanced optics, probably exceeding by no less than one hundred times our present capability.    The technical capabilities of Keyhole camera images, the best we have, are classified; however, analysis of public information reveals that their resolution is about 10 cm at a distance of 300 km.
    A classroom of thirty five students standing nearly shoulder to shoulder on an open field during lunchtime on a clear day, should make a target area of about six meters square. By dividing the 10 cm standard for keyhole images into one of these sides yields a sixty to one ratio. These means that OEAs could resolve a classroom group at 18,000 km, or about 11,000 miles. Under the assumption of having advance optics, the OEAs should be able to see the students at a range of one hundred times this, or 1.8 million km (1.1 million miles).
    By filling a stadium with people, OEAs could spot them from high above the earth, almost as far as one half the distance to the sun. In any event, ten thousand meters should do well enough, providing OEAs have observation satellites stationed at this distance. These of course I expect would be positioned directly in line with the sun at high noon so that they themselves are quite difficult to be spotted by us.
    I would greatly appreciate it if someone might take this up. The objective of course, is to make appropriate contact and then go from there.
    This rather en mass approach clarifies to OEAs who is actually contacting them, being on visual, and I am sure is better than some sort of secret government controlled communication.
    Return communication by the OEAs is optional and under these circumstances favors simple walkie talkie. Remember, they have plenty of power and radio telemetry skills to beam down to anyone. We just have to tell them, when, where, frequency, modulation mode and language.
    I believe that you will all be pleasantly surprised by the outcome, and recognize that diplomatic recognition and communication coordination will be up for grabs, causing considerable chaos, no matter who is the first to do it.
    Culturally, we are not at all ready for this, nor really prepared to take full advantage of the results, yet we can only ask, if we don't do it, who will?
    I myself are of reasonable confidence that the OEAs can fix me, and would be willing to make myself available to disembark, if everything was all right; implying that the government of the United States cannot be involved because of is warlike and dominating behavior, along with others. This is quite troubling, because this usual option is denied.
    If the OEAs make it clear that they will only respond to people, unaffiliated, a generally global response could happen, providing benefit to everyone everywhere, with limitation. I have some ideas about this, but of course they are speciously beneficial to myself.
    My husband claims that this is the problem. People will fight among themselves: some claiming first right, others asserting authoritative power. The OEAs probably would not like to go along without some assurances from us. So who is going to represent the doves and the hawks? We should probably expect their wishes that we make sweeping social, business and governmental changes, against the wills of no doubt the wealthy, who will indubitably attempt to buy their way in.

Sincerely,

Buc Webb
