Unfortunately, it may take a very intelligent person to understand it or take it somewhat serious. Or.......... it may take another type of person to just immediately consider it fantasy or foolishness.
I pinged you because I thought you might have some time to consider this "theory".
I heard this man speak the other night. Having been in the A.S.A. back ij the Vietnam era, and involved in some "interrogations" / truth seeking, I think I know when folks are for real. Maybe not.
I'm rather sure Hawkings is not a nut job, quite the opposite.
Or intelligent enough to recognize either parody or mental illness. Sorry, but I dont have time to tell the difference. As a joke, its clever to concoct a conspiracy involving conspiracy theorists like Chomsky (if thats what its doing. I didnt get that far.). If hes unable to intuitively estimate the probability of that unraveling before execution, its mental illness. If a smart sane person reading it takes it seriously, its inexperience.
If Hawkins is not a nut and is not joking, hes cashing out. Google David Hawkins and kook The first result is of his appearance on Coast to Coast. Case closed ;^)
