As for Dames -- if you guys have the recordings of the Sept. 11, 2001 open lines show, that fuckbag Ed Dames called in and started spewing his bullshit that night. I mean, this was 14 or 15 hours after the attack itself, while rescuers were still pulling people out of the wreckage, and this reprehensible piece of shit can't even stop promoting himself for one day and act like a normal fucking human being.If you listen to the show, Dames comes on around the second hour or so and tells Art Bell he's had some sort of remote viewing summit, where they combine their concentrative powers in a circle like motherfucking Aes Sedai from the Wheel of Time and shit, and he goes on to claim they had a vision of a cave in Kandahar where the attacks were planned.He goes on to describe the cave, a tunnel through which it can be accessed, the building above it, and many other details. The question is, if this douche really thought he was seeing the headquarters of bin Laden and co., why would he be releasing that information on a public radio show instead of keeping it under wraps and forwarding it to law enforcement?It takes a special kind of douchebag to try to capitalize on a national tragedy as it's happening. I would enjoy punching Ed Dames in the face.
I can't stand this guy, I don't know if he is supposed to be a remote viewer or a psychic or both because they are two different things.
Yes Ed Dames is a phony... But, damn! I used to enjoy when he'd come on the show with Art. Predictions of the killshot and death and destruction everywhere, were great fodder for 'Latenight with Art.'The most hilarious thing about this phony douche was his getting married AND having a kid...I mean, wtf? You're going to bring life into the world even though you supposedly 'know' that it's gonna become hell on earth very soon?Yeah, ok... I sure do believe a guy who claims to hold such knowledge BUT decides to have a kid anyway.Yup, good ol' Dr Doom...Thankfully not even he falls for his own bullshit.
Ed Dames was, if anything, proud of his status as a troublemaker within the unit, a maverick who dared venture into unknown realms. But he was also developing another kind of reputation - a reputation for becoming too involved in his monitoring of RV sessions, for pushing the viewer, however unconsciously, towards whatever target description he, Ed Dames, happened to favor. Occasionally Dames knew in advance of the session what the target was, but even when he was "blind" at first, he tended to develop strong opinions as the session went on.There was one episode, in late 1987, which some regarded as a good illustration of this problem. The branch chief at the time was a genial lieutenant colonel named Bill Xenakis, who had taken over after Bill Ray left, earlier in 1987, and would run the unit until Fern Gauvin took over in 1988. Xenakis called in Dames and explained that an Ops-type target had just come in. He told Dames only that the target was a possible event.Dames set up the target in the usual fashion...and went over to the CRV room to start running viewers against the target: Riley, Smith, Buchanan, and Gabrielle Peters. Dames soon noticed that the viewers' descriptions of the target were remarkably consistent. Their impressions all seemed to involve some kind of unusual aerial vehicle. It had a large payload - box-like objects of various sizes - and the colors red and white featured prominently. The pilot was obese, and the vehicle seemed to be open-topped, with sled-like runners underneath. It was going to come across the northern U.S. border sometime a few weeks in the future. It was going to come down over Canada, down from the Arctic pole.Some of the data generated by the viewers were very strange, but Dames decided it was probably analytical overlay. For instance, Paul Smith said for some reason that there were livestock associated with the target. Riley drew the vehicle with eight strange objects out in front of it. It didn't matter; it was obvious to Dames what was going on here: Some kind of terrorist attack was being planned. The target was apparently an ultralight plane or a specially modified helicopter, loaded with an atomic bomb - or bombs - and designed to fly under U.S. and Canadian radar surveillance. Stage Four data, designed to pull out intentions and purposes associated with the target, suggested that the device was meant to fly into the United States somehow, surreptitiously, by night. Dames guessed that a Middle East country was involved, maybe Syria or Iran or Libya.Dames was in the CRV room with Riley when he decided it was time to act. He told Riley he was going to run over to 4554, the nearest INSCOM building, and get access to a secure phone so he could alert his friends elsewhere in the intelligence community. To Riley, he seemed to be worried that Xenakis and others at DIA would suppress the data as unreliable if he tried to go through their channels. A terrorist nuclear attack on the United States . . . This was big.Xenakis, meanwhile, was watching the session from the control room, trying not to allow his laughter to be heard across the hall in the CRV room. When Dames came out into the front room of the ops building, on his way to find a secure phone, Xenakis and everyone else were waiting for him, wearing big grins.It had been Mel Riley's prank, a measure of revenge for all the brain-bending bilocations he'd had to endure on advanced training targets. The prank was that the target's identity had been known to the viewers all along. It was not a terrorist attack; it was Santa Claus and his sleigh. Each viewer had simply gone through the usual structure of a CRV session, describing Santa's raw attributes, and even making rough sketches of the sleigh and reindeer, but never actually naming the target. The idea had been to see what interpretations Dames would make, when presented with such unusual material. Xenakis had agreed to go along, and Dames, it seemed, had fallen right into it.
I recommend everyone take a look through that article, it's a real LOLfest on what a scumbag Dames is.
