Professionals claim it isn't supported by scientific evidence published in high impact factor peer reviewed journals. Parapsychology explores this possibility, but the existence of the paranormal is not accepted by the scientific community. Parapsychology, including the study of clairvoyance, is an example of pseudoscience. Yet, both of these men claim to be parapsychologists. . .funded by the CIA, conducted many experiments for all of these groups claiming to use "Science" as their guide and end all.    Isn't this some kind of Contradiction? Stanford Research International's remote viewing project also encompassed the work of such consulting "consciousness researchers" as the artist/writer Ingo Swann and Military Intelligence Corps chief warrant officer Joseph McMoneagle. Joseph McMoneagle is a retired U.S. Army NCO and Chief Warrant Officer. He was involved in "remote viewing" (RV) operations and experiments conducted by U.S. Army Intelligence and the Stanford Research Institute. He was among the first personnel recruited for the classified program now known as the Stargate Project (1978–95).  Along with psychic colleague Ingo Swann, McMoneagle is best known for claims surrounding the investigation of RV and the use of paranormal abilities for military intelligence gathering. His interests also include near-death experiences, out-of-body travel and unidentified flying objects. Now lets look at McMoneagle's story, it's a rather interesting one. McMoneagle describes a remarkable memory of very early childhood events. He grew up surrounded by alcoholism, abuse and poverty. As a child, he had visions at night when scared, and began to hone his psychic abilities in his teens for his own protection when he hitchhiked. He enlisted in the Army in 1964, at the age of 18, to get away from the family turmoil. McMoneagle subsequently became an experimental remote viewer while serving in U.S. Army Intelligence. He was severely injured in a helicopter accident in Vietnam. He was involved in intelligence work for 15 years. From 1978, he was known as "Remote Viewer No. 1" at Project Stargate — the U.S. Army's psychic intelligence unit at Fort Meade, Maryland. At his retirement McMoneagle earned his Legion of Merit for his last 10 years of service, including 5 years of work in SIGINT (SIGnals INTelligence) and 5 years in the RV program. He retired from the Army in 1984, but continued work as a consultant at Stargate until 1993. Stargate Project This is what Stargate entailed, Stargate Project was the code name for a secret U.S. Army unit established in 1978 at Fort Meade, Maryland, by the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) and SRI International (a California contractor) to investigate the potential for psychic phenomena in military and domestic intelligence applications. The Project, and its precursors and sister projects, went by various code names—GONDOLA WISH, GRILL FLAME, CENTER LANE, SUN STREAK, SCANATE—until 1991 when they were consolidated and rechristened as "Stargate Project." The overseer of this project primarily involving remote viewing was Lt. Frederick Holmes "Skip" Atwater, an aide and "psychic headhunter" to Maj. Gen. Albert Stubblebine, and later president of the Monroe Institute.The unit was small-scale, comprising about 15 to 20 individuals, and was run out of "an old, leaky wooden barracks", according to a Washington Post article titled, *Up close and personal with a remote viewer in  1995 where they claim it was a secret project and it was McMoneagle, who was defending it. Dear Tax Payers who funded our experiments. . .we've concluded it was wasted money, but thanks for Funding Us! So apparently after spending all those years and likely an unimaginable amount of money (at least to us mere working class who struggle to put their children through school) Stargate was terminated and declassified in 1995 after a CIA report concluded that it was never useful in any intelligence operation. Information provided by the program was vague and included irrelevant and erroneous data, and there was reason to suspect that its project managers had changed the reports so they would fit background cues.  The program was featured in the 2004 book and 2009 film entitled The Men Who Stare at Goats,  although neither mentions it by name.    I would say this was Quite Convenient for them.  What are your thoughts? This appears to be another case of The Russians, The Russians! Has anyone else noticed how these Russians and the FUD. . .Fear, Uncertainty and Doubt these "research institutes" and industrial military complex uses to obtain an inordinate amount of tax payer money?    This was their explanation for the public upon termination Information in the United States on psychic research in some foreign countries was sketchy and poorly detailed, based mostly on rumor or innuendo from second-hand or tertiary reporting, attributed to both reliable and unreliable disinformation sources from the Soviet Union. The CIA and DIA decided they should investigate and know as much about it as possible. Various programs were approved yearly and re-funded accordingly. Reviews were made semi-annually at the Senate and House select committee level. Work results were reviewed, and remote viewing was attempted with the results being kept secret from the "viewer". It was thought that if the viewer was shown they were incorrect it would damage the viewer's confidence and skill. This was standard operating procedure throughout the years of military and domestic remote viewing programs. Feedback to the remote viewer of any kind was rare; it was kept classified and secret. Remote viewing attempts to sense unknown information about places or events. Normally it is performed to detect current events, but during military and domestic intelligence applications viewers claimed to sense things in the future, experiencing precognition. What happened according to them, was in 1970 U.S. intelligence sources believed that the Soviet Union was spending 60 million rubles annually on "psychotronic" research. In response to claims that the Soviet program had produced results, the CIA initiated funding for a new program known as SCANATE ("scan by coordinate") in the same year.  Remote viewing research began in 1972 at the Stanford Research Institute (SRI) in Menlo Park, California. I suppose it's the Do, Spend, Justify and make excuses later to a citizenry where the elitists and wealthy don't care and are possibly entertained by these "government. . .meaning You and I programs" because they already have connections as Christine Blasey's family did to Stanford and various other Universities to send their kids to elite schools, the rest of us must work 2 to 3 jobs while our kids also help absorb debt to attend Universities involved in programs like this.    But hey, no worries. . ."It's SCIENCE, all for Science!"  Don't you like working all those jobs to insure our ability to "experiment?" In 1985 Army funding was terminated and the program redesignated SUN STREAK and funded by the DIA's Scientific and Technical Intelligence Directorate.  Back to other "projects" by Stanford Research International.    Bioinormatics and drug discovery using AI and computing techniques In the 2000s, SRI worked on Pathway Tools software for use in bioinformatics and systems biology to accelerate drug discovery using artificial intelligence and symbolic computing techniques.  The software system generates the BioCyc database collection, SRI's growing collection of genomic databases used by biologists to visualize genes within a chromosome, complete biochemical pathways, and full metabolic maps of organisms. National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases  They wouldn't be working on one of those Georgia Guidestone Goals by any chance, would they?  Together we can just "hope not!"  After all, they may come back and tell us it was all for naught again. In 2006, SRI was awarded a $56.9 million contract with the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases to provide preclinical services for the development of drugs and antibodies for anti-infective treatments for avian influenza, SARS, West Nile virus and hepatitis. First National Air Pollution Symbposium, Thank you SRI for your keen interest! This is Very Interesting as they were the First on the scene for air quality and "pollution." Do you ever ask yourself, pollution by whom?  Who is In Charge of what is going into the atmosphere?  How are They conducting their experiments and just Who makes Them accountable? Stanfor  604c  d Research Institute (as it was initially called under it's 501c3) performed much of the early research on air pollution and the formation of ozone in the lower atmosphere. SRI sponsored the First National Air Pollution Symposium in Pasadena, California, in November 1949. Experts gave presentations on pollution research, exchanged ideas and techniques, and stimulated interest in the field. . Did they Ever as "Environment Saving mechanisms/regulations make many people a pretty penny and have done so for Years to come!     Who were the people poking around in the ozone?  Was it us, whom they blame or were they the ones conduction these experiments?  The event was attended by 400 scientists, business executives, and civic leaders from the U.S. SRI co-sponsored subsequent events on the subject.  That would be helpful for them to continue pocketing those trillions of dollars in funding! More coming in reply
