Half A Century Of The German Moon Base

http://greyfalcon.us/restored/German%20Moon%20Base%20Alpha.htm ^

[Fennie]

The Germans landed on the Moon as early as propably 1942, utilizing their larger exoatmospheric rocket saucers of the Miethe and Schriever type. The Miethe rocket craft was built in diameters if 15 and 50 meters, and the Schriever Walter turbine powered craft was designed as an interplanetary exploration vehicle. It had a diameter of 60 meters, had 10 stories of crew compartments, and stood 45 meters high. Ever since their first day of landing on the Moon, the Germans started boring and tunneling under the surface, and by the end of the war there was a small Nazi research base on the Moon. The free energy tachyon drive craft of the Haunebu-1 and 2 type were used after 1944 to haul people," materiel and the first robots to the construction site on the Moon...

True, we’re sort of an extension of the ‘90s, but I tend to think of them as having ended on 9/11/01. Although there were lesser incidents, international terrorism and the full-throttle thread of Mohammadanism wasn’t as in your face as it has been since. I just doubt most folks are going to look at this decade with much nostalgia. And from the looks of things, the ‘10s are probably going to be even worse... :-(

I’m half Irish, but I ain’t wearing no skirt. I get that too sometimes, because of my somewhat-long hair.

I made it down to 50 and by far yours was the funniest and quickest comment. Within two minutes too!

I salute you.

Awesome website.

If some researchers are correct, Bavarian Intelligence [the Illuminati's Skull & Bones society, the Thule Societies "Nazi" Empire, and the CIA-NSA network that was 'german'ated from within the Bavarian Illuminati and Bavarian Thule societies] are actually working with the 'Greys' in secret.

I want my anal probe and I want it now!

There is little to look forward to with nostalgia for the 2000s because the decade never did establish its own identity. Some say that the 1960s "begin" with the JFK assassination, then come the Beatles on Sullivan, then the British invasion, LSD rises to the underground then to the surface (it'd been around for decades and in popular clinical use since the 1950s), Communists openly protest on US campuses, the youth movement turns to violent radical extremism, Monterey Pop Festival, race riots, war on poverty, LBJ is hounded out of office (doesn't seek re-election), Nixon is elected, Man on the Moon, Woodstock, Altamont.

But we know what music forms established themselves in the 1960s. Now it is all industry. Nothing on a small label gets picked up for national redistribution and radio airplay. It's all prefab-Monkees/Motown song companies again. What cultural movements have been new and genuine?

Blogging became more popular but the alternative media was already in existence before 2000. This decade begins a few months into 2001 with a declaration of war in attacks that bring the deaths of 3,000 civilian.

The society doesn't want to fight this war. That is why it will remain an unpopular period of history. Define the 1940s without referencing WWII.

The peace dividend gave way to the baby boom (which didn't fully exhibit itself until the 1950s as the toddlers became mroe active). The threat of Nazism was replaced by the threat of Communism and no one wanted to tackle that foe so we had a lengthy Cold War.

What? You didn’t like petting your pet rock?

George Noory knows all this and more. He believes none of it except what Jimmy Hoffa told him.

"Best sustained economic performance in history."

Perhaps, although it hasn't turned out so great for my own family.

"No Gas shortages."

But the prices, dude ! It ought to be labelled Gucci and Godiva.

"Cheap reliable cars attractive cars."

Car designs in this decade SUCK.

"Best Health care in the world."

My health sucks, and so have many of my doctors.

"Microwave ovens."

Those were around in the '70s and '80s.

"Cell phones."

F**kwits driving around while yakking on them and paying no attention to the road, or people walking around while yakking on them and paying no attention to other people.

"Bluetooths,"

Wha ?

"IPods,"

Never owned one, never will.

"1000 TV channels."

And still nothing worth watching, except old sitcoms and my ABC soaps.

"The Military Channel. The History Channel,"

SoapNet

"Jessica Alba."

I'll give you that.

"16 game pro Football season"

I ain't a sports person.

"Highest percentage per capita of private home ownership."

With many like myself getting to live next to illegals. Joy, rapture.

"Longest period of Record low unemployment numbers."

My father got laid off from a middle-class job this decade after 30 years. Hasn't worked since.

"The Internet."

True, but it was better in the '90s. More freewheeling, more fun.

"Talk Radio."

Had that in the '70s and '80s (well, only worth listening to in the post-"fairness" doctrine era), though I never listen to it anymore. It doesn't seem as good as it once was then, either. Nothing against Rush, though.

"A period of Republican Congress."

True, but they jumped the shark awhile ago before they were thrown out. They were at their best in 1995. They never got their mojo back after the Clinton gov't shutdown showdown.

"A Republican President."

We had a better one in the '80s.

"4 Conservative SC Justices in the 00s,"

Call me when we get 5.

"Ann Coulter. Laura Ingraham etc etc etc etc etc etc etc"

Naah, I still think this decade on the whole blows.

[GQuagmire]

Brazilian bikini waxes.

One of the few good things of this decade

[Squantos]

Man that is an argument for the shelf life of silicone if ever I saw one !

[fieldmarshaldj]

I think Altamont was definitely the end of the ‘60s. MNJohnnie is right about some aspects of the ‘70s. I was a kid during it and had warmer feelings about it, but things sucked with respected to politics and many societal issues. Still, it seems like we’ve lost something today amidst many technological advances, I can’t quite put my finger on it.

I hasten to use the overwrought phrase of having lost our souls, but in some ways, it sure feels it. Despite the many problems of the ‘70s (literally being a decade of a hangover from the ‘60s), and the occasionally ugly tone of the decade, it seems like it had a lot more of that soul than it does today.

Frankly, I think we’re headed towards a major crash today because of the polarization. It’s one reason why I believe in the next decade, things are going to get even uglier. We may be headed (thanks to int’l terrorism and our failure to secure the borders) towards a major domestic cataclysm that will make 9/11 look like a picnic. Problem, too, is that we’ve overall become so spoiled and unable to deal with the kind of threats that would routinely occur every generation or so in the past, and when that cataclysm happens, there will be very few people that will be prepared. :-\

[fieldmarshaldj]

Bleh, no. Don’t like women looking like little girls.

[iowamark]

I used to love UFO. The Brits do a great job on a low budget.

[weegee]

Altamont wasn’t the end of the 1960s. It wasn’t even the end of peace and love. There was rioting at the original woodstock. The fences were torn down. Terrorists (yippies and black panthers) blackmailed the promoters for $10,000 and still stormed the stage during the Who’s set to preach politics, they burned down the burger guy’s food booth...

The “1960s” era probably ends more resolutely with the ousting of Richard Nixon. After Nixon we are squarely into a new era. The 1970s end on Jan 20, 1981 as Reagan is sworn in, Jimmy is out, and the Iranian hostages are released.

To define a decade simply by year doesn’t work. Eras and generations (25 year birth to adulthood lifespans) are more appropriate.

[weegee]

We had a culture war in the 1960s. The liberals won. They subverted the establishment, as they claimed they would. They became the New Establishment but since they still have not accomplished all of their goals, consider themselves to be "outsiders" even though political correctness is entrenched in our nation's laws (hate speech and sexual orientation discrimination), courts, schools, media, etc. etc.

It won't go back to being "like it was". The key thing is not to forget how it ever "was". You don't have to just live in a nostalgia of "how it was", you can share that life lesson with young people today and remind those who've forgotten that black Americans used to live in 2 parent households and didn't have such a high out of wedlock birthrate.

People used to find a way to pay for their insurance so they could change jobs and KEEP their insurance.

As we face incremental socialism, it is hard to cast off the chains. Look at the Russians who "want to go back" to how it was. Life sucked but at least there was no point in struggling to change things.

There was a guy on the Tom Snyder show who was predicting doom and gloom in our future in the 1970s (I've seen his appearance on the DVD for the punk/new wave musician episodes of the show).

There are always people predicting doom and gloom. And it remains an ever present genuine threat. We do need to be prepared for it.

But who could've correctly refuted the naysayers of the 1970s and early 1980s to predict the success and stabilities of the 1980s (the cold wars remained cold)? What about the snowball effect of the 1990s (recovery had begun long before Bill Clinton was sworn in)? The speculation of the internet stocks helped fuel the economy as does the internet today.

There was a tremendous financial loss on 9-11-2001 but we still recovered from it. It was not absolute disaster that plunged us into decades of dispair.

I don't think our nation is living for the long term...

I probably heard that before, but can't recall it. My father was living in NYC at the time and he and his friend (both about a decade older than the average attendee age at 30) were going to go up there on a lark, but they wisely decided against it. I think Altamont, while on the whole hardly much of a blip on the scale of things, tended to illustrate that whatever innocence (although dubious to claim to begin with) that went along with these "hippie concerts" was gone.

"The “1960s” era probably ends more resolutely with the ousting of Richard Nixon."

I think it was over long before then. You could make the argument that the '60s era of JFK ended at some point in the Spring or Summer of '68 (MLK/RFK assassinations and the resulting riots in major cities). Probably can call the "New Frontier" segment of the '60s (the optimistic, can-do spirit) and the "Hippie" segment from '68 to '71 with the breakdown of society in overdrive.

"After Nixon we are squarely into a new era. The 1970s end on Jan 20, 1981 as Reagan is sworn in, Jimmy is out, and the Iranian hostages are released."

Some disagreement on the post-Nixon era, but clearly the '70s ended with Reagan's election and the real end of the long national nightmare. I would fix the date of the end of the '80s as April 29, 1992. The Rodney King riots (which I missed being in by a single day) and also the end of the run of The Cosby Show that week, which exemplified perhaps the most positive portrayal of Blacks on television and what could positively be accomplished during the Reagan era (although by which time, already Hollywood was mocking the image with the backlash of trash sitcoms and music).

[aruanan]

Ha ha ha. So even with advanced alien technology the Nazis still got their asses kicked by the Allies.

Yup, although I still hold out hope for the coming counterrevolution to their insanity. The coming cataclysm may be what finally ignites it. One thing is for sure, we won't be able to continue on our current path and expect to survive to the 22nd century. A bankrupt government, moral turpitude, invasion by barbarians (the criminal illegals) and our march toward Dhimmitude will all contribute to the overall collapse.

"It won't go back to being "like it was". The key thing is not to forget how it ever "was".

Yup. I would hope there would be enough of an outraged-based inspiration to many youngsters today growing up in difficult circumstances that they can reestablish what we know worked in the past in keeping a more stable culture simply because they were deprived of it. But we haven't reached that point. Far too many people of all shades having children too young, out of wedlock, by different partners, where they are financially, morally, and spiritually unable to care for those children, perpetuating misery to another generation.

"As we face incremental socialism, it is hard to cast off the chains. Look at the Russians who "want to go back" to how it was. Life sucked but at least there was no point in struggling to change things."

Hopefully we won't lose them, but Putin needs to go, and so do his flunkies.

"There was a guy on the Tom Snyder show who was predicting doom and gloom in our future in the 1970s (I've seen his appearance on the DVD for the punk/new wave musician episodes of the show)."

Those folks were such a staple. Aren't they mostly on Art Bell (or that other guy, whatshisface ?) today ?

"There are always people predicting doom and gloom. And it remains an ever present genuine threat. We do need to be prepared for it."

Yup. Though I don't mean it in "take your family to the woods, build a weapons arsenal and a fortress compound" way.

"But who could've correctly refuted the naysayers of the 1970s and early 1980s to predict the success and stabilities of the 1980s (the cold wars remained cold)?"

Well, they stayed cold, but they went in a different direction. It was remarkable our biggest threat ended up dark age political death cultists working in cells.

"What about the snowball effect of the 1990s (recovery had begun long before Bill Clinton was sworn in)? The speculation of the internet stocks helped fuel the economy as does the internet today."

Although I'm sure Hillary and Pelosi will do their damndest to toss icewater on our economy.

"There was a tremendous financial loss on 9-11-2001 but we still recovered from it. It was not absolute disaster that plunged us into decades of dispair. I don't think our nation is living for the long term..."

Yup.
